Dongbo Xueying walked out of the main gate of the castle, and the soldiers at the gate all stood up straight with excitement: "My Lord!"
Looking at these soldiers, many of their faces were familiar.
Casually walking on the summit of Snowstone Mountain, he overlooked the beautiful scenery of the territory below, the villages, and the distant Qing River, which surged like a white ribbon.
Dongbo Xueying took a deep breath, inhaling the fresh air. The familiar scent of the air was much fresher than that in the underground hall of the Blackwind Divine Palace, and there were also the fragrances of flowers and a hint of earthiness.
"My Lord." A voice sounded.
Dongbo Xueying turned to see that it was the Mage Bai Yuanzhi approaching.
"Great Mage." Dongbo Xueying still held a high respect for his younger brother's teacher.
"I dare not call myself a Great Mage in front of My Lord." Bai Yuanzhi said, not knowing that Dongbo Xueying had transcended to the Extraordinary realm. However, just the fact that he had killed Xiang Pangyun was enough to make him naturally lower his status in front of Dongbo Xueying. "If My Lord respects me, calling me Mage Bai is enough."
Dongbo Xueying nodded slightly.
"I learned of My Lord's return last night and didn't dare to disturb you at such a late hour." Bai Yuanzhi smiled. "Congratulations, My Lord, on your safe return from the Blackwind Abyss! The Blackwind Abyss is extremely dangerous. Throughout the long ages, no one with a title has ever entered it and come out alive. You are the first!"
"Not really." Dongbo Xueying said.
He was an Extraordinary, and it would be too difficult for someone with a title to escape from the bottom of the valley. He couldn't do it.
"By the way, how are Ji Rong and Youyue?" Dongbo Xueying asked. Although he had talked with his younger brother for a long time last night, he hadn't asked about Ji Rong, who was his younger brother's ex-girlfriend.
"My Lord just returned and may not know yet." Mage Bai Yuanzhi sighed. "Ji Rong, I never expected her to be a believer of the Evil God. I only found out when Lord Sian came to investigate detailed information."
"Believer of the Evil God?" Dongbo Xueying nodded. The Longshan Tower's deductions were indeed very accurate.
"As for Kong Youyue... just half a year after My Lord fell into the Blackwind Abyss, she went to Qinghe County with Mage Sichen." Mage Bai Yuanzhi said, carefully observing Dongbo Xueying's expression. He was a shrewd old man who had long understood the complex relationship between Kong Youyue, Sichen, and Dongbo Xueying.
Dongbo Xueying smiled. "Impressive."
Now he viewed these matters more detachedly. He didn't have much hatred for Kong Youyue, just thinking that this girl was very scheming and had now climbed into the Si family.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The ground trembled slightly. Dongbo Xueying turned to see a group of cavalry galloping on the distant mountain path, with Lord Sian leading them on horseback.
"It's Lord Sian." Bai Yuanzhi said. "He must have left Yishui City before dawn to get here so early. There must be something important. I won't be in the way." Saying this, Bai Yuanzhi smiled and temporarily withdrew.
Lord Sian, standing on the edge of the mountain summit, immediately spurred his horse without slowing down, heading straight for Dongbo Xueying.
"Clatter, clatter, clatter~"
The hooves raised and stopped.
Lord Sian leaped off the horse, leaving it behind to be taken care of by his subordinates.
"Lord Dongbo." Sian's face was full of joy. "I heard that you have returned, and I couldn't believe it at first. It's truly a miracle! I have already reported the news. I believe it won't be long before an Extraordinary comes to guide you into the Extraordinary forces!"
Those ranked in the top three thousand on the Longshan List, as well as some considered worthy of cultivation, are generally guided into the Extraordinary forces for training.
Even with training, the number of those who can eventually transcend to the Extraordinary realm is still pitifully few.
So, like Siliang Hong and Xiang Pangyun, they had once entered the Extraordinary forces but still failed to break through to the Extraordinary realm.
"Oh?" Dongbo Xueying frowned slightly. "I need to go to the Dongyu Province to bring my parents back! You said an Extraordinary is coming. When do you think they will arrive?"
"Lord Dongbo, don't! It's best if you stay at Snowstone Castle. The Longshan List spreads news very quickly, and the Extraordinarys travel fast. I estimate that an Extraordinary will arrive within one or two days." Sian said, jokingly. How could an Extraordinary come to guide a titled person and then let the Extraordinary make a wasted trip?
Dongbo Xueying nodded slightly. "One or two days? That's enough. I will set out for the Dongyu Province's Duoyu County shortly! I will definitely be back before dark."
"You... you..." Sian was somewhat stunned. "Back before dark?"
Two provinces.
If you follow the land route, it's a winding journey of tens of thousands of miles. Back before dark?
"From here to Duoyu County in the Dongyu Province, the straight-line distance in the high sky is only eighty thousand miles." Dongbo Xueying said.
"Round trip is a total of one hundred and sixty thousand miles. Even the top alchemical airships, flying at full speed, can only cover five thousand miles in an hour! In twelve hours... they would only cover sixty thousand miles, still far from the destination." Lord Sian was still puzzled.
"No, I mean, I will fly there myself." Dongbo Xueying smiled.
Lord Sian was stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Dongbo Xueying. "Lord Dongbo, you have already..."
"Boom!"
A layer of flame-like aura appeared on Dongbo Xueying's body, and the无形的威压 made Lord Sian feel short of breath.
Then Dongbo Xueying retracted the aura from his body.
"Do you believe it now?" Dongbo Xueying looked at him.
"I believe it." Lord Sian's head was still a bit dazed. Dongbo Xueying was only twenty-eight years old and had transcended to the Extraordinary realm? Such a prodigy... in the last thousand years, it seemed only the Longwind Knight 'Chi Qiubai' could match him! Who is Chi Qiubai? He is the current top figure in the Anyang Province, highly regarded by all factions, who believe that Chi Qiubai has the potential to become the strongest in the world.
Even the guardians of the Blackwind Divine Palace are extremely optimistic about Chi Qiubai, believing he has a chance to break through the magical array.
"Lord Dongbo, Lord Dongbo." Lord Sian was somewhat nervous. He was just a small local manager of the Longshan Tower, what was he in front of an Extraordinary? Families like the Si family and the Moyang family were intimidating to Lord Sian. But even those families would tremble in front of a true Extraordinary.
This shows the vast difference in status between them.
"We met when I was fifteen." Dongbo Xueying smiled. "No need to be so formal."
"Right, right." Lord Sian was somewhat flustered. The appearance of an Extraordinary in his jurisdiction was something that probably few of the countless small local managers in the world had ever encountered. Usually, titled individuals are introduced to the Extraordinary forces! How could an Extraordinary suddenly appear, requiring the Longshan Tower to relay the message?
"I will immediately send the message; this is too big." Lord Sian said, flipping his hand to reveal a square crystal token. He began to write on the crystal token.
Dongbo Xueying watched all of this.
This was the lowest-end communication alchemical item, capable of transmitting the message to the Longshan Tower in Qinghe County! For Extraordinarys... their communication crystal tokens can directly transmit messages by consciousness, with a range covering the entire world.
"The message has been sent!" Lord Sian's fingers trembled as he pressed the transmission button, then looked up at Dongbo Xueying.
"Thank you." Dongbo Xueying said.
"This is my duty." Lord Sian smiled. "It is also my honor. Your matter is too significant; it will definitely be reported to the upper echelons of the Extraordinary organizations! The delay might be a bit longer. I estimate that the Bloodblade Tavern and the Earth Temple will arrive within one or two days, and the other factions will be a bit slower. Since you are a newly ascended Extraordinary, many Extraordinary organizations will likely invite you."
Dongbo Xueying nodded lightly.
This was already within his expectations. He had chatted with Monkey and Little Bird, gaining some understanding of the Extraordinary organizations in the world.
That's why he had proactively revealed his Extraordinary status to Lord Sian, letting him spread the news! To let the various factions actively invite him, as external resources are also very important in the path of cultivation. With the competition, he could better choose an Extraordinary organization.
"I will go to the Moyang family in the Dongyu Province first, and then wait for the Extraordinarys when I return." Dongbo Xueying said, and with a swoosh, he transformed into a flame and shot into the sky, disappearing from Lord Sian's sight.
Lord Sian looked up in a daze, muttering, "Our Yishui City has also produced an Extraordinary?"
...
Whew.
Transforming into a flame meteor in the mist, he flew at high speed. Setting out in the early morning, just two hours later, before noon, Dongbo Xueying had already flown to the easternmost coastal area of Duoyu County in the Dongyu Province, 'Leichao Cliff'.
"Mother." The flame condensed into a young man in black, looking down.
Using the fluctuations of the earth and sky.
Dongbo Xueying instantly discovered where his mother was being held.
