Chapter 424: The Sect is a Noble Family (Second Update)

"Your Majesty, are you really not planning to sneak in this time?"

Ran Yeting looked at Li Long, who was lying lazily on the chair, feeling somewhat... no, quite surprised.

She had originally thought that this trip with Li Long was to find the feeling of wandering the world as they had in the past, to be an unrestrained immortal couple once more.

She had even prepared herself to use disguise and makeup to sneak into the Immortal Sect Grand Competition.

Yet, after arriving at the destination, he suddenly told her that Li Long was actually just here to watch the show this time.

"Either I actively support and forcibly enthrone a fourth super sect... It's not that I can't do it, but what benefit would that bring me?"

"In my view, these sects that haven't changed in a thousand years are the greatest noble families."

Li Long laughed loudly and domineeringly pulled Ran Yeting closer, showing not a hint of timidity.

The ending was, of course, failure; he wasted half his life, but until the very end, he still didn't achieve success, eventually dying in depression and hatred.

"The Sword Casting Hut has the most disciples and also has external businesses; its comprehensive strength is stronger than Wanhua Valley, but if we are talking about threats, it still ranks behind the Divine Path Sect."

Hmph.

"I have worked hard for most of my life; can't I enjoy myself?"

If Ren Yidao were here and knew the story of that pioneer, he would surely be unable to help but exclaim:

"Holy crap! Born Surveillance Room Master Holy Body!"

Ran Yeting could not believe it; in her impression, although the Divine Path Sect was ranked as one of the three families, it was the most low-key and had no astonishing deeds.

Li Long laughed, picked up Ran Yeting directly, pulled her into his embrace, and the two lay on the chair together.

The two lay quietly like this for a good while; Ran Yeting felt a bit sleepy but was reluctant to fall asleep, so she took the initiative to bring up a topic.

The room was built on the mountainside of the Sword Casting Hut's mountain gate, and further up was the main hall of the Sword Casting Hut; it could be said that this was the highest standard of treatment among the guest rooms.

"The intentions of the Sword Casting Hut, I know; I have been clear about them for a long time."

"Either they hit the jackpot, inherited the legacy of some ancient sect, digested the resources and techniques within, and transformed all at once."

"Hahaha! No need to worry; I dare to say this because I have my own certainty, you can rest assured."

At this moment, the big shots qualified to enter the Sword Casting Hut's mountain gate were all watching the real-time movements of the contestants through that light screen.

Such a powerful sect, even if it bowed its head to the imperial power on ordinary days, posed a huge potential threat to the imperial power.

Li Long shook his head slightly, his tone carrying little hope.

"Your Majesty, if you tease this concubine like this, I will get angry."

Moreover, the two were currently in the top-tier guest room of the Sword Casting Hut; it was called an incognito visit, but in the end, it was just for show...

Ran Yeting nodded thoughtfully and pressed, "Then in Your Majesty's view, is the Sword Casting Hut the most dangerous of all the sects?"

The Emperor let out a soft hum and said in a flat tone a sentence that could cause the entire imperial court, and even the current situation of the entire Beiming Divine Continent, to undergo a huge change.

But before she could start making a fuss, she was picked up directly from behind.

But contrary to Ran Yeting's expectations, Li Long shook his head, denying her conjecture.

"On the surface, it is indeed the one with the least threat, and it has always been honest for so many years."

111.253.207.70

"These three families have taken root in the Beiming Divine Continent for thousands of years, longer than the era of the dynasty, and their foundations are deeper than one another; for those guys to catch up to them, how could it be an easy thing?"

"I wish I could uproot all the noble families; why would I look for more trouble for myself?"

"How could this be? Isn't the Divine Path Sect..."

At this moment, the Sword Casting Hut had cleared out the market originally at the foot of the mountain gate and placed a huge sword-shaped light screen, which reflected thousands of scenes of various sizes from all over Sword Province at this moment.

Ran Yeting widened her eyes, completely not expecting Li Long to say such an outrageous statement at this time.

Hm?

Playing with me?

"When did I say I was going to participate? Haha, I am here to rest and watch the show, not to go on stage as a performer to sing for others."

Once in Li Long's embrace, the pout on Ran Yeting's lips turned into a smile; she moved and found a comfortable position to lie down, watching the chaotic scenes in the field together.

This was a sudden whim of a certain generation of Sword Casting Hut disciples who wanted to cast a Spirit Sword whose blade could reflect the heavens.

Li Long teased Ran Yeting while his gaze scanned the scene, habitually reaching his hand toward the Imperial Concubine's waist.

"Your Majesty's words just now sounded as if this concubine wouldn't let Your Majesty rest... Ah!"

"If they want to show off, then let them show off; being able to deter other sects and make those guys behave can also be considered a merit for them. As for the rest... heh."

Is this your attitude for apologizing?

"It is my fault, my beloved concubine, do not be angry; I will make amends to you."

"Opportunities, of course, exist, but how easy is it to talk about?"

Slap!

But Ran Yeting speechlessy swatted away the hand Li Long had reached over and turned her head to hum softly.

"So, since we are watching the show, then which candidates does Your Majesty favor this time? Or which sects do you think have potential?"

Li Long heard this and hummed softly, curled his lips, and said casually:

"Nothing favored; the final champion will be nothing more than one chosen from those three families."

But just this was already enough; at least in this province, it could be called clear in every detail, with nothing able to hide.

The last wish of that predecessor was ultimately successful, but not completely successful; now this can only be considered a prototype, and can only be used within Sword Province.

Li Long, of course, also knew the Imperial Concubine's thoughts; he deliberately did not tell her the truth in advance just to see her surprised expression at this moment.

And they were right inside someone else's mountain gate, and he didn't even bring guards!

Thus, she gave the Emperor a resentful look and said gloomily:

"Your Majesty, you had better be careful with your words; if something really happens, this concubine is not confident in being able to take you out."

However, the line of thought he researched back then was passed down, studied and refined by later generations, and made into the massive light screen of today.

"They put on such a grand display, isn't it just to show off their strength and make Me hesitate for fear of damaging something precious? Heh, would I fear such a threat?"

"Oh, does Your Majesty feel that these latecomers still have no way to catch up to those three families?" Ran Yeting had originally just wanted to chat to distract herself, but now she was truly interested.

Hmm, that is indeed the case.

"The First Emperor also had Xiaojian seek a master, and I also entrusted my own son and daughter to their hands for cultivation."

Li Long's expression turned serious for a rare moment, and he sighed softly:

"But the Divine Path Sect is too mysterious."

"Even the First Emperor did not know much about it, and it is impossible to figure out what they are actually thinking..."
