Quick Transmigration: Finding a Successor for a Sect in JX3

After Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng had been in the capital for four or five days, Wei Ziyun brought them news. He said that the Emperor had agreed to see them, and that Wei Ziyun would take them to meet the Emperor early the next morning.

Hong Fei heard that the Emperor was willing to see them. Hong Fei suddenly felt very nervous; there were no emperors in his previous worlds. He had only ever seen Emperor Li Longji in the world of Jianwang 3 while playing the game. Even after Jianwang 3 became a real-world mini-world, he hadn't seen him again. Now, he was going to see the Emperor of Lu Xiaofeng's world—how could Hong Fei not be nervous?

Hongfei tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. Her mind raced between tension and excitement. She was nervous about meeting the emperor the next day. She was also excited about seeing him—a living emperor! A living emperor! She, a modern person, was having the chance to meet a living emperor. How could she not be nervous and excited?

The next morning, Hong Fei got up early. Back at her private residence, she took a bath and washed her face. She even put on some makeup. Then, she chose the "Gentle Breeze. Jade Frost Gift Set" from her appearance inventory and put it on before leaving the residence. She went to Lu Xiaofeng's room at the inn and knocked on the door.

Lu Xiaofeng opened the door and saw Hongfei dressed up in a new outfit. Today, Hongfei wasn't dressed like her usual lively and cute young girl. Instead, she looked rather refined, like a lady from a noble family.

"Oh, what's going on here?" Lu Xiaofeng was a little surprised to see Hong Fei so serious.

“To meet the emperor, one must be more dignified.” Hongfei felt there was nothing wrong with dressing elegantly.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't say anything about Hong Fei's behavior. He led Hong Fei to the inn's lobby, told her to have breakfast first, and then took her to find Wei Ziyun.

Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng arrived at the entrance of the training ground from last time. The guards saw them and led them to Wei Ziyun's office. It turned out that Wei Ziyun had already given them instructions.

When Wei Ziyun saw that Hong Fei and the others had arrived, he put down what he was doing, picked up his official hat from the table, put it on, and gestured for Hong Fei and the others to follow him.

Wei Ziyun led Hongfei and Lu Xiaofeng toward the palace. Upon arriving at the palace gate, Wei Ziyun took out a waist token, exchanged a few words with the guards, and they allowed them to pass.

Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng followed Wei Ziyun through the palace. Hong Fei noticed that the palace in this world was identical to the Forbidden City in her previous world, even though she had never been to the Forbidden City in her own world. She had seen blueprints of the Forbidden City online, and the layout here was practically the same as those blueprints.

Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng followed Wei Ziyun, winding their way through the streets until they finally arrived at the emperor's residence. Wei Ziyun told Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng to wait outside while he went in to announce their arrival.

After a while, a young eunuch came out and invited Hongfei and Lu Xiaofeng inside.

Hongfei and Lu Xiaofeng exchanged a glance before following the little eunuch inside.

Upon entering the room, Hongfei followed Lu Xiaofeng's example and performed the proper courtesies. After the Emperor excused himself from the formalities, Hongfei stood quietly, waiting for the Emperor to ask her questions.

The Emperor first asked Lu Xiaofeng.

"Lu Xiaofeng, what business do you have with me?"

"Your Majesty, it is not I who wish to see you. Rather, it is this young friend beside me who has something to report to you," Lu Xiaofeng replied respectfully to the emperor.

When the emperor heard Lu Xiaofeng say that Hong Fei wanted to see him, he turned his gaze to Hong Fei.

In fact, Wei Ziyun had previously told the Emperor why Hong Fei and the others wanted to see him. However, he only gave a general explanation and wasn't very clear. Now that he saw that Hong Fei was indeed just a young girl, the Emperor didn't quite believe Wei Ziyun's explanation for Hong Fei's request to see him.

Hong Fei knew he looked young and wouldn't be easily believed. But what he was about to do required the emperor's approval. So he could only step forward and speak to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I, Hong Fei, am not lying. I truly come from another world. The world I represent has made a deal with the consciousness of your world. The world I represent has been passed down in your world. In return, your world provides protection for the world I represent. That is why the three major sects exist. In order to counterbalance the fact that the successors of these three sects use their martial arts to break the law and harm the ordinary people of your world, a special sect is needed. And this sect requires Your Majesty's approval."

"Oh, what kind of sect is it? It actually requires my permission to establish one?" the emperor asked curiously. These martial arts practitioners never cared about his approval when creating their sects. Now, a sect actually needed his consent to be established—that was interesting.

“Your Majesty, this sect is called Tian Ce Mansion!” Hong Fei replied.

"Tian Ce Mansion? Isn't that an organization established by Emperor Taizong of Tang before he ascended the throne?" The emperor also knew about Tian Ce Mansion.

"Your Majesty, it is so. The Tian Ce Mansion was indeed established by Emperor Taizong of Tang, but it was responsible for managing martial arts organizations. This prevented the major sects from using their martial arts to break the law," Hong Fei explained to the emperor.

"Oh, it sounds like that. This sect called Tian Ce Mansion is probably quite extraordinary." The emperor sensed something different about it.

"Your Majesty, yes. The descendants of the Tian Ce Mansion are all generals capable of leading troops into battle. The disciples of Tian Ce take it upon themselves to protect their homeland. There is even a poem that says: 'The long river sets in the eastern capital, iron horses guard the border, the general's grave stands. All the villains are swept away by the righteousness of Tian Ce, only the long spear guards the loyal and brave soul.' (Here, 'the soul of the Tang Dynasty' has been changed to 'the soul of loyalty and bravery,' since this is no longer the Tang Dynasty.)"

"Good! What a loyal and courageous spirit, guarding the spear alone. This sect is a good sect. But what proof do you need?" the Emperor asked Hong Fei.

"Your Majesty, because the Tian Ce Mansion produces only generals, it is a sect that can only be controlled by the imperial court. For the Tian Ce Mansion to establish its lineage in this world, it needs Your Majesty's decree. Only then can it legitimately open its gates and exert its authority over the martial world. Furthermore, after its establishment, the successors of the Tian Ce Mansion will mostly be warriors who have fought countless battles. Therefore, Your Majesty needs to bestow official positions and ranks upon them. That is why I have come to see Your Majesty. Only with Your Majesty's approval will I open the Tian Ce Mansion's teleportation array. Without Your Majesty's consent, I dare not open this teleportation array. After all, if you misunderstand and think I am plotting a rebellion, I will be in grave danger."

"Where is the teleportation array of the Tian Ce Mansion?" the Emperor asked again.

"Your Majesty, the teleportation array of the Tian Ce Mansion is located in Luoyang, the Eastern Capital," Hong Fei replied to the Emperor.

The Emperor pondered in silence for a long time. Then he told Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng to go back first and wait outside the palace. The Emperor needed to discuss this with his ministers, and he would have someone inform them after they had reached a decision.

Hongfei and Lu Xiaofeng took their leave from the Emperor. As soon as they stepped out the door, a young eunuch escorted them out of the palace.
