Quick Transmigration: Finding a Successor for a Sect in JX3

After their audience with the Emperor, Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng stayed in the capital for a few more days. One day, while listening to a storyteller at an inn, a young eunuch approached them, saying that the Emperor summoned them and that they should immediately go to the palace to pay their respects.

Hongfei and Lu Xiaofeng dared not delay and hurriedly followed the young eunuch into the palace. They arrived at the place where the Emperor had summoned them last time. The young eunuch told Hongfei and Lu Xiaofeng to wait while he went in to announce their arrival. After a while, the young eunuch came out and let them in.

"The common people meet the Emperor."

"The common people meet the Emperor."

Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng bowed to the Emperor at the same time.

"No gift!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Emperor looked at them and didn't beat around the bush. He looked directly at Hong Fei and said, "Regarding what you mentioned last time, I discussed it with the senior officials of the court. We think it's very feasible. I'm issuing you an imperial edict to go to Luoyang and activate the teleportation array of the Tian Ce Mansion. After activating the teleportation array, the commander of the Tian Ce Mansion must immediately come to the capital to see me. As for the establishment of the Tian Ce Mansion, I will make a decision after I have met with the commander of the Tian Ce Mansion."

"Yes! This humble subject will certainly convey His Majesty's decree," Hong Fei replied upon hearing the Emperor's words.

"You go ahead."

Upon hearing Hong Fei's agreement, the Emperor dismissed Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng. As Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng emerged from the hall, an old eunuch presented Hong Fei with an imperial edict.

Hong Fei, carrying the imperial edict, left the palace with Lu Xiaofeng and rested for a night at an inn in the capital. The next day, they set off for Luoyang. This time, they rode horses instead of a carriage. In just five days, Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng arrived in Luoyang.

Upon arriving in Luoyang, Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng met with the prefect. They presented the imperial edict and conveyed the plan to build the Tian Ce Mansion outside the city. Seeing that they had the edict, the prefect didn't make things difficult for them and asked if they needed someone to guide them. Hong Fei politely declined the prefect's offer, as he himself didn't even know where the teleportation point was.

After leaving Luoyang City, Hong Fei led Lu Xiaofeng to explore the area within a two-mile radius of the city. Using the city gate as a guide, Hong Fei led Lu Xiaofeng to the left. The left side was not flat, with some hills. Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng used their lightness skills to search for the tiny teleportation point among these hills. Their efforts paid off, and they found the teleportation point in just one day. It wasn't far from Luoyang City, located in a ravine within two kilometers. The ravine wasn't large, and there wasn't much flat land. It wasn't enough space to build a Tian Ce Mansion; it seemed the mansion would have to be built according to the terrain. However, Hong Fei didn't need to worry about that, as she only needed to find the teleportation point and activate the teleportation array.

Having found the teleportation point and activated the teleportation array, Hong Fei was already very familiar with the process, so there was nothing more to say. Hong Fei simply led Lu Xiaofeng inside.

After Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng entered the teleportation station, they didn't emerge from the entrance of the Tian Ce Mansion, but rather from the plaza inside the mansion. At that time, the Tian Ce Mansion's warriors were drilling. Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng's sudden appearance, if not for General Xuanwei Cao Xueyang's timely intervention, would likely have been riddled with holes.

At that moment, Lu Xiaofeng's face turned pale with fright, and Hongfei was so scared that she sat down on the ground with a thud. My goodness, that was terrifying! Can you imagine opening your eyes to find several red-tasseled spears about to pierce you?

Seeing their fright, General Cao Xueyang led them to the strategist Zhu Jianqiu. Zhu Jianqiu, upon hearing General Cao Xueyang's account of the situation, was also shaken. Hitting Hong Fei was manageable, since she was unkillable. He could simply compensate her with some equipment. But if Hong Fei's friend had been injured, it would be a much bigger problem. Lu Xiaofeng didn't have an invincibility buff; he hadn't yet formed a contract with the Jianwang 3 world, so he lacked its unique characteristics. If he died, he would be truly dead. Moreover, Hong Fei had brought the chosen one of Lu Xiaofeng's world. If the chosen one died in the Jianwang 3 world, the two worlds would become enemies—a good thing turning into a bad thing, a loss that outweighed any gain!

Hong Fei was also shaken. If she died, she could simply be resurrected. But if something happened to Lu Xiaofeng, there would be no way to save him. It seemed she would have to go in alone first next time the teleportation array opened. The main problem was that the first two times had gone smoothly, but this time it almost happened. If General Cao Xueyang hadn't reacted quickly enough, Lu Xiaofeng would have become a dead phoenix.

Lu Xiaofeng, however, was quite easygoing. After recovering, he declared that he was fine. After all, it was just an accident!

Seeing that Lu Xiaofeng was truly alright, the strategist Zhu Jianqiu dropped the matter.

Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng sat with the strategist for a while, resting and calming down from their earlier fright. The strategist, Zhu Jianqiu, then offered to take them to see Commander-in-Chief Li Chengen, and Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng gladly agreed.

Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng followed the strategist Zhu Jianqiu to the main hall of Tian Ce Mansion. To be honest, Tian Ce Mansion was really different from other sects. It was majestic, solemn, and radiant. That was the feeling that Tian Ce Mansion gave Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng.

Upon entering the main hall of the Tian Ce Mansion, Hong Fei met with Grand Commander Li Chengen. After exchanging greetings with Li Chengen, Hong Fei took out the imperial edict from the Lu Xiaofeng world from her backpack.

Grand Commander Li Chengen accepted the imperial edict with both hands, opened it, and after reading it, asked the emperor of the world of Hong Fei and Lu Xiaofeng if he had any other instructions.

Hong Fei told Grand Commander Li Chengen about the demands made by the emperor of that world. Grand Commander Li Chengen glanced at the strategist Zhu Jianqiu.

Strategist Zhu Jianqiu nodded to Commander-in-Chief Li Chengen and said, “Commander-in-Chief, you must go and see the Emperor of Lu Xiaofeng’s world. After all, my Tian Ce Mansion has soldiers. The successors we recruit in the future will all be martial artists. If we cannot reach a consensus with the Emperor of Lu Xiaofeng’s world and gain his support, my Tian Ce Mansion will find it difficult to move an inch in that world, and may even be regarded as a rebel.”

Li Chengen nodded in agreement upon hearing the strategist's words. Although his Tian Ce Mansion was merely a sect managing the martial arts world, it undeniably possessed an army. Given this, the imperial court certainly wouldn't abandon them, treating them like ordinary martial arts sects. Without the support of the emperor of Lu Xiaofeng's world, they lacked the confidence to manage martial arts sects. They might even be captured by the Lu Xiaofeng world's court as rebels. It seemed his trip to see the emperor of Lu Xiaofeng's world was inevitable. However, some details still needed to be discussed with the strategist. Thinking this, Commander Li Chengen summoned a soldier and instructed him to take Hongbei and Lu Xiaofeng to rest first, and then depart for the capital of Lu Xiaofeng's world to meet the emperor early the next morning.
