Checking in for 100,000 Years-Chapter 586: Jiangchuan Dynasty, Elder of Water Dragon Sect
Jiangchuan Dynasty, a realm of vast waters.
Framed by rivers and lakes, it is an expanse of boundless waters.
Legend has it that tens of thousands of years ago, Divine Water descended from the heavens one day, its torrents engulfing the entire kingdom, causing countless creatures to die in the flood. The creatures that survived were amazed to find that the Spiritual Energy in this region had become incredibly concentrated after it was flooded by the Divine Water. Thus, many cultivators began to establish various factions on the numerous islands in the lake, and the jurisdiction of this place was also named the Jiangchuan Dynasty. After tens of thousands of years of development, the Jiangchuan Dynasty evolved into a Supreme Major Sect-level power. Due to the unique terrain and highly concentrated Spiritual Energy of the Jiangchuan Dynasty, it has produced many powerful individuals over tens of thousands of years. The powerful Jiangchuan Dynasty could hold its own against the neighboring Nether Immortal Dynasty. However, the two great dynasties had no enmity and have always coexisted peacefully.
At this moment, in the sky adjacent to the two great dynasties, a ripple suddenly appeared in the void, revealing a black carriage.
"Master, this Jiangchuan Dynasty didn’t exist a hundred thousand years ago, did it?" the Xuan bird stood on the roof of the carriage, gazing at the vast expanse of azure water in front of it, and said in amazement.
"Indeed not. I remember the Spiritual Energy here wasn’t this dense before..." Ye Yun said quietly from inside the carriage.
Mu Qing explained from the side, "Master, the Jiangchuan Dynasty only came into existence in the recent tens of thousands of years. There was a great flood here at that time, which came very abruptly, submerging everything..."
Mu Qing explained the origin of the Jiangchuan Dynasty to Ye Yun. Her voice was not loud, but it carried clearly, and the Xuan bird outside also heard it.
The Xuan bird glanced at the lake water and exclaimed admiringly, "Tsk, tsk, the Spiritual Energy in this lake water is truly dense! And there are quite a few demon beasts and various natural treasures in the water..."
"That’s why the Jiangchuan Dynasty has grown rapidly and become a Supreme Sect-level force. It’s not without reason!" Ye Yun said with a smile.
"Although the Spiritual Energy in the lake water is dense, it lacks any Divine Nature..." the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon yawned. Its claw moved slightly, and quite a few Spirit Stones flew out to be devoured by it. These Spirit Stones, of course, were all given to it by Ye Yun from the Divine Land, containing Divine Nature within them.
Big Black Horse suddenly turned his head and asked with a grin, "Master, where are we going?"
"To that place!" Ye Yun said indifferently, and a thought entered Big Black Horse’s mind.
"Understood, Master!" Big Black Horse responded, pulling the carriage and flying slowly towards the southeast.
A hundred million li away from here, there was a huge island spanning tens of thousands of li. On this lush island, many humans resided. The most powerful force on this island was the well-known Su family. There was a powerful cultivator of the Life and Death Realm on the island, deterring others. Ordinary forces dared not provoke them.
But now, the once flourishing Su family was shrouded in deep despair.
In the Clan Leader’s council hall, an elderly man and a young girl both wore troubled expressions, their faces etched with deep concern.
"Father, Uncle Li was mysteriously seriously injured. This must have been the work of the Zhao Family, right?" a girl in a colorful dress said.
Opposite her sat an elderly man dressed in black, his hair and beard both white. This man was Su Mountain, the current Clan Leader of the Su family, and the girl in the colorful dress was his daughter, Su Jinx. On the foreheads of both Su Mountain and Su Jinx was a seven-colored imprint.
"It’s very likely the work of the Zhao Family..." Su Mountain’s eyebrows knitted together as he sighed and spoke.
At this point, Su Jinx’s gaze fell on a Spirit Stone on the table, and she spoke in frustration, "This time, we discovered a high-quality Spirit Stone Mine within the waters of our Su family. This has nothing to do with the Zhao Family, yet they resorted to such despicable means to seriously injure Uncle Li. They are truly shameless!"
"The Zhao Family’s intention is clear. They want us to cede this Spirit Stone Mine so that they can mine it exclusively!" Su Mountain said in anger.
"Father, the Zhao Family gave us a three-day deadline. If we don’t respond, they will send people to seize the Spirit Stone Mine. What should we do?" Su Jinx asked with furrowed brows and a worried look.
"Hasn’t your second uncle gone to seek the Elder from the Water Dragon Sect? If he can find the Elder from the Water Dragon Sect and have him mediate, this matter can be resolved..." Su Mountain said softly.
"Uncle, my father has invited the Elder from the Water Dragon Sect back!" A soft breeze blended with a gentle fragrance drifted in from outside the door. A beautiful young girl in a white dress entered, speaking cheerfully.
Su Mountain’s expression lit up with joy. He immediately stood up and asked in a loud voice, "Su Snow, are you telling the truth? Will the Elder from the Water Dragon Sect really mediate between our Su family and the Zhao Family?"
"Yes, Uncle." Su Snow smiled sweetly, her face revealing two dimples, which made her look extraordinarily charming. Su Snow and Su Jinx were of similar age, both possessing lovely appearances and great beauty.
"Daughter, come quickly with me to greet the Elder from the Water Dragon Sect..." Su Mountain briskly walked outside with an excited look.
"Big brother, there’s no need. Elder Liu is already here!" A man’s voice came from outside the door, then two figures drifted in and entered the council hall.
On the left was a middle-aged man, Su Water, Su Mountain’s younger brother. The two brothers, Su Mountain and Su Water, complemented each other well.
Next to Su Water stood an elderly man with an immortal aura. He was dressed in a green robe, carrying a treasure sword on his back, and his aura was astonishing, having already reached Level Three of the Life and Death Realm.
"Su Mountain pays his respects to Elder Liu!" Su Mountain greeted with a fist and palm salute, showing great respect. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"You may dispense with the formalities, Chief Su." Elder Liu stroked his long beard, wearing the demeanor of a transcendent master, and smiled faintly.
"Regarding the feud between our Su family and the Zhao Family this time, we hope Elder Liu can help us mediate. For the mining of the Spirit Stone Mine this time, our Su family will definitely offer a generous portion to Elder Liu..." Su Mountain went straight to the point.
"There’s no need to be so polite..." Elder Liu gave a slight smile, his gaze sweeping around the room before finally landing on Su Jinx. He whispered, "Actually, this matter is easy to resolve. I wonder if Chief Su would like to hear about it?"
"Please enlighten us!" Su Mountain replied eagerly.
Elder Liu smiled and said, "The Zhao Family has two sons, who are about the same age as your Su family’s Su Snow and Su Jinx. Their eldest son, Zhao Dragon, is very fond of your family’s Su Jinx and intends to form a marital alliance. I wonder what Chief Su’s thoughts are on this?"
After listening to Elder Liu’s words, Su Mountain’s face immediately stiffened. It was true that the Zhao Family had two sons, roughly the same age as his two daughters. However, the eldest son of the Zhao Family was a natural-born piece of trash; despite cultivating until now, he was merely at the Nirvana Realm Third Level. How could someone with such a cultivation base be worthy of his exceptionally beautiful daughter, who was at the Destiny Realm?
"Father, I will absolutely not marry Zhao Dragon! Tell the Zhao Family to give up on that idea!" Su Jinx was so angry that her face turned pale and her body trembled.
"Elder Liu, you’ve heard my daughter. She does not consent..." Su Mountain said with a bitter smile.
Elder Liu shook his head slightly, a look of displeasure appearing on his face.
