Sovereign of the Heaven - C243
After Di Chen left the Eternal Gate, he returned to the Sky Realm Academy. Liu Jingjing and Jie Qian were still waiting for him.
Seeing that Di Chen had returned, Liu Jingjing could not wait and asked: “How is it?”
Jie Wei also looked at Di Chen worriedly.
Di Chen smiled and said, “The Fish Sect Leader said that she and the Nether Moon Sect of the Nether Moon Sect can be considered old acquaintances. He told me not to hide my identity from her, so there shouldn’t be a problem.”
Currently, the greatest threat towards Di Chen was Nether Moon Sect. According to what Yu Xuanji had said, Nether Moon would not become Di Chen’s opponent, and might even help Di Chen.
“In the future, you just have to avoid the He family and think of a way to bring Zi Yan out of the Mo Family.”
Liu Jingjing said with a smile.
Di Chen was not actually worried about these two families. In fact, what he was most worried about was how much trouble the ten major sects of the Primordial Era would bring to the Martial Region Continent if they were to reappear. Also, Di Chen was a member of the Heaven Gate, and this Heaven Gate was extremely mysterious.
“Oh right,” Liu Jingjing suddenly said: “Just now, Bing Tong and Huang Zhan came to find you.”
Di Chen thought for a while and said: “Then I’ll go out and take a look, it’s been a long time since I’ve returned to Sky Realm Academy, and I don’t know if I’ll be able to see the little girl Shang Yu. Jingjing, wait for me here.”
Liu Jingjing was stunned at first, but then she smiled. It could be seen that her smile was very forced.
When Liu Jingjing returned, she immediately thought of Shang Yu. The key thing was that she did not want him to follow her.
Not long after he left, he saw Bing Tong and Huang Zhan.
Previously, Di Chen had also seen Huang Zhan’s strength, in these few years, he had improved a lot, and he had matured a lot, becoming even more accomplished than his big brother Huang Ting.
“Di Chen,” Huang Zhan walked over and said with a smile. “I didn’t expect you to come back.
Di Chen said calmly: “There are indeed some fortuitous encounters. Oh right, you went over to look for me earlier, what is it?”
Huang Zhan said: “Actually it’s nothing much, one reason is to ask about your current strength, and the other reason is because Principal Mu asked us to come here, he wants to talk to you, so I’ll take you there.”
was a little suspicious. Back then, when he had entered the Famous Sword Academy, he had only glanced at Mu Zhongli a few times. In reality, he and Mu Zhongli had never spoken to each other, and he had no idea what Mu Zhongli wanted to talk about with him.
After 10 minutes, Huang Zhan arrived at the Sect Leader’s pavilion. Huang Zhan was not qualified to enter, so Di Chen entered alone.
When he entered the pavilion and saw Principal Mu Zhongli and Vice Principal Liang Xinghe, Di Chen had some impression of them. Back then, he had even saved Di Chen’s Sky Spill Brush, and he had picked it up from Celestial Road.
“Dean …” Di Chen bowed to the two of them.
Liang Xinghe joked: “Back then you were forced to leave the Sky Realm Academy, and didn’t expect to join the Famous Sword Academy. Now, it even represents that the Famous Sword Academy won the competition for Martial King Realm.
Di Chen laughed bitterly: “Actually, I won’t hide it from the two Headmasters, back then I had carried out a mission which was arranged by Principal Zhao Fusheng, who allowed me to join the Famous Sword Academy very early on, I was more at ease with the situation and did not agree, but because of the matter regarding Su’er, I was forced out of the academy, and met Headmaster Zhao outside the city gate. Since I had nowhere else to go, I agreed to go.”
Mu Zhongli scolded jokingly: “This old fox, I knew that he had plans for our Sky Realm Academy, but there is nothing you can do about it after joining the Famous Sword Academy. I just did not expect that you had improved so much in these past few years, so I know that you did not go all out during the previous matches.”
As the Principal of the Sky Realm Academy, Mu Zhongli naturally knew that Zhao Fusheng would secretly encourage the geniuses of the Sky Realm Academy s to join the Famous Sword Academy. In fact, the Clear Water Academy and the Principal of the other sects would also secretly urge the students of the other sects to join their own academies.
Di Chen was startled, “Why does Principal Mu say that?”
Liang Xinghe laughed: “Although you have never displayed it in front of others, but I know that you still have a martial spirit of light, I’m not wrong.”
Back then, when Di Chen participated in the Academy’s assessment, he had used the martial spirit of light, he thought that the two principals must have known about it, but there was nothing to hide, so he nodded, if he used the martial spirit of light, he could probably kill both Xiu-Er and Cao Yuer.
The martial spirit of light was Di Chen’s trump card, he would definitely not use it carelessly.
“That’s right.” Mu Zhongli suddenly said with a serious face, “Actually, we did not come to find you to reminisce about the past. Did you run into people from the ten ancient sects?”
Di Chen was slightly taken aback, he could tell that Mu Zhongli definitely knew something. He asked doubtfully, “How did Principal Mu know?”
Liang Xinghe explained: “We know that you had entered the wizard tower before, came into contact with a person called Luo Yumeng, and even stole her Sect Leader medallion. This is something that one of our disciples saw.”
Di Chen thought for a while and said: I have seen this person before, when I was training with her, I had a conflict with her and snatched her order badge. After that, we met at the wizard tower, but because there were some things that required her help, I decided to threaten her with it. In the end, she helped me out and I returned the order badge to her.
Mu Zhongli sighed: “Di Chen, you committed a huge mistake, you really shouldn’t have returned the order badge to her. The ancient top ten sects are all evil, their successors are naturally of the same nature, you should have thought of ways to kill that person, and you shouldn’t have returned the order badge to her.”
Liang Xinghe agreed: “That’s right, if one day those ten great sects rises up again, I’m afraid our Martial Region Continent is done for.”
Although Di Chen was the descendant of the Eternal Gate, Di Chen was actually not very familiar with the ten great sects. He had looked up information and records before, but the problem was that the records regarding the ten great sects were very limited.
“Di Chen, take a look at this,” Mu Zhongli took out a book and threw it at Di Chen.
This was a piece of very ancient information, the pages had long ago turned yellow, and the words inside were also ancient words. Fortunately, Di Chen was knowledgeable enough to understand them.
What surprised Di Chen was that these ten great sects were actually demonic sects, which killed countless people, especially the Eternal Gate. Back then, they were the top ten sects, and the disciples in their sects were even more ruthless and malicious. Furthermore, every time a Sect Leader took over, they would slaughter an entire city’s worth of people, so if one did not kill them, one did not have the qualifications to continue.
When Di Chen saw this, his expression changed. Did that mean that when Yu Xuanji inherited the Eternal Gate, he also killed an entire city’s worth of people?
“Are these sects really so scary?”
Di Chen took a deep breath and said: “I thought these ten great sects had evil ways to deal with.”
Mu Zhongli smiled bitterly, “This record isn’t complete and it’s only a small part of it. The ancient sects were destroyed because of their cruelty. However, no one would have thought that the top ten sects would make a comeback.”
Di Chen said in a daze: “How did those ten great sects get annihilated?”
Mu Zhongli pointed up and said mysteriously, “The heavens’ messenger!”
Di Chen was shocked again, he suddenly thought about how the Heaven Gate he joined claimed to be the messenger, and thought to himself, could it be that the Heaven Gate was destroyed?
However, Di Chen had read a lot of ancient books in the Eternal Gate, and these ancient sects were all disciples of the heavens. With the heavens as the leader, why did they have to be exterminated?
What was the relationship between the Heaven Gate, the top ten sects, and those gods in the sky?
Di Chen had a face full of suspicion, thinking that he must have been hiding some big secret from him all those years ago. Maybe Yu Xuanji knew something, but she might not tell him.
Previously, Di Chen was still glad that he could actually become the successor of the Eternal Gate, but now, he was afraid. The ten great sects had very harsh requirements to choose their successors, killing people and sacrificing the heavens, but he had never done this before.
“Principal Mu, why are you telling me these things?”
Di Chen said in confusion: “These ten great ancient sects are just too strong, and I’m only using my Martial King Realm right now, it doesn’t seem like I can stop them.”
Mu Zhongli laughed, “When everything is in chaos, there will definitely be a hero that will appear. When the ten great sects of the Primordial Era were wreaking havoc on the Martial Region Continent, there was bound to be someone that would stop them in the future. This person is known as the Son of Heaven, and I believe that since the ten great sects are able to reappear, the Son of Heaven will naturally reappear.”
Di Chen suddenly thought of the information in the document that mentioned the Son of Heaven. He opened the document and looked at it again, thinking that Yu Xuanji had never talked about the Son of Heaven to him before.
Di Chen said with a wry smile: “This Martial Region Continent is truly big, with so many geniuses, like crucian carp passing through the river. Even if you have the son of the heavens, why would the two principals think that it’s me?”
Liang Xinghe said: “To tell you the truth, for the past few years, Principal Mu and I have been searching for the Son of Heaven, but we have never found him. Previously, when I saw you, I already had a faint feeling that you were not ordinary. You are a literati, but you have the power of a warrior, and you can cultivate and become a martial spirit of light without any spirit energy. You are not an ordinary person, there are too few warriors like you in the entire Martial Region Continent, so Principal Mu and I are sure that you are you.”
Di Chen thought to himself, he had seen many talents before, some of them were not worse than him, and just from this point, it was too fake. Furthermore, he was the descendant of the Eternal Gate, how could he be the predicted Son of Heaven?
“I know you wouldn’t believe it, but we aren’t a hundred percent sure either. In short, you should be more careful in the future.”
Mu Zhongli took out a scroll and handed it over to Di Chen, saying: “This is our Sky Realm Academy’s most powerful cultivation technique, the King Kong Fist Technique. Take it.”
Di Chen was startled, of course he knew about this fist technique. This was a technique that only the Sect Leader could learn, why would Mu Zhongli give it to him?
He thought to himself that if the students and teachers of Sky Realm Academy knew about this, they would definitely be so furious that they would go crazy.
