Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

Xu Luo and Xu Chen showed the token to the shopkeeper, who then led them to the third floor of Zuixianlou.

Each branch of Zuixianlou is basically three floors: the first floor is the main hall, the second floor has private rooms, and the third floor is dedicated to serving the intelligence system.

"What are your orders, young masters?" the shopkeeper asked respectfully.

The manager and intelligence specialist of Zuixianlou are both members of the Xu family.

Xu Luo smiled calmly, "There's nothing urgent for now. We'll be staying here for a while, so you can continue with your work."

The story of the Three-Sword True Saint has not yet spread throughout the Eight Ancient Kingdoms. The ruins will not appear for a while, and we will have to wait for some time because a seamless connection would easily arouse suspicion.

Xu Luo and Xu Chen then stayed at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion in Zheng State.

Xu Luo had lived here for several hundred years in his previous life, so he knew the place quite well. Since he had nothing else to do for the time being, he took Xu Chen to look for some minor opportunities to slightly enhance their strength.

Half a year passed like this.

About ten thousand miles south of Zheng, a dazzling blade of light shot into the sky, piercing the clouds. Then, an extremely domineering blade intent spread in all directions, which could be clearly sensed by the cultivators in the cities on the border of Zheng.

"Such powerful sword intent! Which master of the sword has arrived?"

"Look to the south!"

"Hiss! This soaring sword light, could it be that some treasure has been unearthed!"

"Go! Go and see!"

As soon as any cultivator saw the soaring sword light, they all rushed towards that direction without hesitation.

Everyone wants to be one step ahead, seize the opportunity, and soar to great heights.

When they arrived at the place radiating dazzling sword light, they felt as if they were in a domain of swords, with powerful sword intent constantly impacting their will.

Fortunately, the sword intent was only a small part emanating from a gap, and it did not have a significant impact on the group.

"This is the ruins of a powerful figure!!"

A gaunt man hidden among the crowd speculated, "Could this be the cave where the Three-Sword True Saint passed away?!"

"hiss!!!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd gasped, their faces filled with excitement and even a hint of madness in their eyes.

In other words, there's a high probability that it contains the legacy of a true saint!

The Three-Sword Saint's holy techniques must be very strong, otherwise he wouldn't be the number one in his generation. Also, his three swords, although not holy weapons, are only slightly weaker than holy weapons.

"rush!"

Immediately, some people lost their minds and rushed straight through the gap, stepping directly into the ruins.

"Let's go too!"

"No rush. The True Saint's inheritance isn't something you can obtain just by going early. Let's go back to the family first."

Some went directly into the ruins, while others hurried back to inform their respective factions of the matter.

In an instant, the entire state of Zheng became lively.

This is the legacy of a true saint. In the Eight Ancient Kingdoms, apart from the royal family, only top-tier forces like the You family have a true saint ancestor in charge.

In each ancient kingdom, there are only about five forces that possess true saints.

The appearance of a true holy relic here is bound to cause a stir.

Before long, the powers of the other seven ancient kingdoms also learned of this matter and sent people to investigate.

Being in Zuixianlou with Xu Luo and Xu Chen, they naturally learned of the discovery of the ruins immediately. However, they were not in a hurry and only leisurely went downstairs after half a day.

While they were still on the stairs, they could hear the noisy discussions coming from the lobby.

"Tsk tsk, I never expected that the cave ruins of the Three-Sword True Saint would actually be near the Zheng Kingdom."

"The allure of the Three Swords True Saint's legacy is too great; all the slightly larger forces in the Eight Ancient Kingdoms have come."

"If I weren't so weak, I would definitely go in and take a gamble. If I could obtain the inheritance of the Three-Sword True Saint, I would soar to the heavens!"

"I don't know who will ultimately win the bid."

"I think it's the young master of the Wang family. After all, his talent in swordsmanship is comparable to that of the Three Swords True Saint, so the probability of him inheriting the legacy is extremely high."

Xu Luo and Xu Chen wore faint smiles, looking completely like they were watching a show.

Since we're going to see a play, we should naturally go to the venue.

The State of Zheng is located at the southernmost part of the Eight Ancient States, and the ruins of the Three-Sword True Saint are located at the southernmost part of the State of Zheng.

When Xu Luo and Xu Chen, disguised, arrived, the place was bustling with noise and a large number of cultivators had gathered.

They found a corner and stood quietly. Xu Chen even took out a handful of sunflower seeds and started cracking them open.

Xu Luo glanced at him helplessly, then withdrew her hand and took half of it.

Of all the people present, the two of them stood out the most, exuding a relaxed and at ease vibe.

Fortunately, they were standing in a secluded spot, and no one noticed them.

Xu Chen said in a low voice, "The Demonic Sect is quite clever. The rumors they fabricated were not too exaggerated. They only said that the Three-Sword True Saint's sword was second only to a holy weapon. If they dared to say that it was a holy weapon, the ancient families and dynasties of the Holy Land would come running as soon as they smelled it. The probability of being exposed at that time would be extremely high."

Xu Luo nodded. "That makes sense, since a rogue cultivator who is a True Saint cannot possibly possess a Saint Weapon."

Let alone sacred weapons, even the sacred metal used to forge sacred weapons is enough to attract those powerful forces.

But saying it's slightly inferior to a sacred weapon is unappealing, because anything that isn't a sacred weapon is far inferior to one; there's no such thing as being slightly inferior.

Therefore, the major powers will not come in large numbers, but some juniors will come to join in the fun, accumulate some experience, and hone their skills.

On the other hand, the smaller and medium-sized forces all valued this highly and wished they could bring everyone they could from their families.

Those who were nearby, such as the royal family of the Eight Ancient Kingdoms, the major powers within the kingdom, and the four great families of Broken Mountain City, arrived immediately.

After all, they are not qualified to compete for better opportunities, so this kind of opportunity, which is not valued by the major powers, is especially precious to them.

However, there are certain restrictions on this relic; only cultivators below the Dharma Aspect Realm can enter.

This was naturally a restriction deliberately imposed by the Demonic Sect when setting up the ruins.

This was done to avoid attracting the prodigies of powerful factions.

It can be said that the Demonic Sect considered every detail in this matter.

This is why, in Xu Luo's previous life, despite the large number of cultivators who died in each of the thirteen ruins, no one discovered that this was a conspiracy by the Demonic Sect.

Xu Luo asked, "Didn't the You family send anyone?"

"Anyway, I specifically mentioned this to my father-in-law, and he will probably remind the family that if someone insists on coming over, there's nothing that can be done," Xu Chen replied, spreading his hands.

The Heavenly Fire Blazing Beast clan has no interest in this opportunity and will not come. The Great Xia Dynasty had already warned them that no one from the royal family would come, so the other forces could do as they pleased.
