Chapter 470: Floating Immortal Capital

The young disciples of the Ninth Province all flushed with anger.

They wanted to argue, but the Province Guard Chief instantly released his aura to intimidate them, leaving them unable to speak.

Xiao Lingwei also laughed angrily, "You believe only one side's account and think it's our fault; you're not worthy of being this Province Guard Chief!"

Having said that, she instantly released her own aura to counter it.

Boom—

The young disciples only felt their bodies relax, and they all looked up at Xiao Lingwei.

The Province Guard Chief's face showed slight surprise; his gaze at Xiao Lingwei revealed a hint of disbelief.

A Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator!

At the same time, Fan Quan Immortal Venerable and others who had already entered the First Province noticed the young disciples hadn't come in for a while and felt somewhat doubtful.

"I'll go check." Zong Rao said.

Zong Rao had just come out of the sealing barrier when he heard a deafening sound.

"Sorry!!!"

Zong Rao froze; looking over, she saw nearly all the Province Guards uniformly bowing toward the young disciples and loudly shouting "Sorry!"

Not even Zong Rao could believe this sight.

Even the Province Guard Chief and Zhai Qingye, among the young disciples, were dazed.

The Province Guard Chief stared in disbelief at his subordinates.

"We were wrong!"

The Province Guard Chief suspected he was hallucinating, until he saw the triangular-eyed Province Guard's eyes go blank, as if being controlled.

His face changed in shock.

Who is it?!

At the same time, a huge spirit boat docked not far away, bearing the mark of the Second Province.

The people on the spirit boat seemed to notice the abnormality here and all poked their heads out to look.

And just then—

The Province Guards shouted in unison.

"We were wrong!"

"We dare not do it again!"

"The Ninth Province are honored guests!"

"Please welcome the honored guests of the Ninth Province into the First Province!"

The voices of hundreds of Province Guards combined into an unusually loud sound, audible to everyone clearly.

The crowd representing the Second Province, come to participate in the Immortal Sect Grand Competition, all showed shocked expressions, secretly thinking: How… how could this happen?!

The young disciples of the Ninth Province were all dazed, with blank expressions.

Only Song Yan and a few others shifted their gaze to Yuan Yao.

Yuan Yao averted her eyes, gave a light cough, and pretended nothing had happened.

"Good, they know their place!" Weng Mingshu crossed her arms and let out a cold snort.

The Province Guard Chief's face fell; just as he was about to speak, Cang Li beat him to it.

"Fine, we'll reluctantly forgive you."

"Everyone, let's go!"

"You——" the Province Guard Chief began, but realized the Province Guards had already broken free of the control, merely looking somewhat dazed now.

They seemed not to know what had just happened.

The Province Guard Chief's expression grew gloomy.

The triangular-eyed Province Guard quickly rose and asked, "Province Guard Chief, what just happened? My head hurt a moment ago, as if I'd lost consciousness..."

"You just apologized to them."

"What?! That's absolutely impossible!"

The Province Guard Chief's face grew even colder; his deep gaze swept over the young disciples, and just as he was about to speak, another voice cut him off.

"The Immortal Venerable is still waiting inside; hurry up." Zong Rao stood at the front of the line and looked over.

The Province Guard Chief paused, thought it over, and still decided to let the matter drop.

Zong Rao naturally knew the commotion was related to Xiao Yao'er.

Something must have happened here.

The young disciples were still somewhat confused, but once they truly stepped onto the First Province's soil, they could feel the rushing spiritual energy that refreshed body and mind.

What met their eyes was a lush green forest, looking like a richly inked painting.

The morning light filtered through, scattering gold among the trees.

And the spirit boat belonging to the Ninth Province was parked not far away.

They needed to take the spirit boat to the venue of the Immortal Sect Grand Competition in the First Province—the Floating Capital.

After Yuan Yao and the others boarded the spirit boat, they then recounted what had just happened to Fan Quan Immortal Venerable and the leaders of the major powers.

"Oh? Who was secretly venting your anger for you?" the Holy Sect Sect Leader asked, raising an eyebrow intriguingly.

Although he asked that, his gaze had already fallen on Yuan Yao.

And when everyone saw the Holy Sect Sect Leader looking at Yuan Yao, they all turned their eyes to her as well.

The Holy Sect Sect Leader said in a slightly indulgent tone, "Indeed, it's the Repentance Immortal."

Upon hearing that, everyone reacted, their faces showing disbelief.

Although they knew Yuan Yao had a quirk of liking to make people reflect and repent, they hadn't connected the recent events to her presence, because they thought Yuan Yao couldn't possibly control the consciousness of so many strong individuals at once.

Moreover, they can even control their every word and deed.

How strong must one be to accomplish this!!!

Ling Huya, Zhai Qingye, Man Yue, Ao Su, Yao Linglong, Weng Mingshu, Shiziwen, etc., all felt surprised.

However, Xiao Zhufeng and Dongfangxiu had already guessed it.

"Sect master overpraises." Yuan Yao smiled slightly, raised her hands in a salute.

Fan Quan, Immortal Venerable, stroked his goat beard, laughed and said: "Really didn't expect that, you've grown so fast. This time you did well, but in the future you need to be more careful in your actions."

"Disciple understands." Yuan Yao lowered her head.

And the gazes of the young disciples present toward Yuan Yao kept shifting.

The spirit vessel sailed from here to the Floating Capital, the voyage smooth, traveling day and night, taking a full two days and two nights.

During this period, by day one could see the sea of clouds surging, myriad rays of rosy light; at night the galaxy glittered, moonlight like water.

When the spirit vessel finally pierced the last layer of hazy light, that floating celestial capital — the Floating Capital — suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes; the youngsters aboard, no matter how calm their minds had been before, were now all shaken in spirit, almost all stunned speechless, even their breath caught.

The Floating Capital appearing in their view hovered in midair.

"Wow!" someone couldn't help exclaiming.

"The Floating Capital really is suspended in midair!"

Seeing this, Yuan Yao's heart leapt with joy.

This Floating Capital looks extremely huge.

Only when their spirit vessel reached outside the gate of the Floating Capital did they realize how small their spirit vessel was compared to the gate.

The guards of the Floating Capital's gate are all Nascent Soul Realm cultivators.

Only after they passed through the gate's checkpoint did they discover that the city's prosperity far surpassed what their former homeland could compare to.

Countless jade towers and palaces came into view, exquisitely beautiful.

The spiritual energy in the city was so rich it almost solidified, forming five-colored auspicious clouds that wound and surged between the buildings.

The streets were wide and clean, with shops lining both sides, displaying all kinds of rare treasures that emitted an alluring glow.

This truly was a scene of vibrant life and flourishing prosperity.

Ying Wuji turned his head to look at Yuan Yao, asking, "What do you think of the Floating Capital?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yao gazed at him with bright eyes, saying, "The spiritual energy here is so rich; if I were to cultivate here, would I break through faster?"

Ying Wuji was taken aback, not expecting her focus to be this.
