According to Maki Chen's knowledge, even the strongest cultivators in many lower-tier cities did not possess Primordial Soul Stage, so even the guards at the gates of the imperial city had the strength of Primordial Soul Stage.
After entering the imperial city, the bustle before their eyes had attracted the attention of all the disciples of the Mountain Sea Pavilion. They wished that they could imprint all of the wine and lanterns in front of them into their minds.
Compared to the disciples, the few elders leading the group were much calmer. This was not the first time they had come to the imperial city. Although they were surprised by the prosperity of the imperial city, they remained calm on the surface.
When we reach the imperial city, you have to be careful in everything you do. Don't be like how you were in Wu Guang City, where you were unable to stir up any trouble due to the Mountain Sea Pavilion.
Seeing the disciples' eyes on him, Elder Kong who was walking in the front immediately thought back to what happened four days ago, and immediately reminded them, and even intentionally glanced at Maki Chen.
Although their Mountain Sea Pavilion possessed the strength of a top-notch Sect and their disciples could be considered outstanding, in the capital of crouching tigers and hidden dragons, these disciples who were only at the shallow levels of cultivation were nothing at all.
Maki Chen naturally understood this principle. Just the Clear Sky Sword Sect alone was enough to shock Maki Chen a little, especially the black-clothed youth from that day.
In the knowledge of many cultivators, as long as one had enough elemental energy, one could fly on the sword. But in reality, flying on the sword was actually comprehending the way of the sword and becoming one with the sword.
The reason why Maki Chen was able to confirm that the black-clothed youth had reached this level was because he knew a few good friends who cultivated the way of the sword in his previous life.
Maki Chen, what are you thinking? When Elder Kong saw that Maki Chen was actually still in a daze while he was speaking, he could not help but feel displeased.
Seeing that, Maki Chen immediately replied: Clan Elder Kong is right, disciple will definitely think twice before acting, and will definitely not do anything rash.
Hearing this, Elder Kong nodded his head in satisfaction. He stroked his white beard and said, ”That's great!”
Immediately after, all the disciples followed Maki Chen's example and pledged sincerely!
After walking for about half an hour, they arrived at a restaurant. A signboard was hung above the restaurant's entrance, and three flamboyant words were written on it — — Cloud Viewing Pavilion.
After entering, Maki Chen immediately felt the atmosphere become heavy, compared to the bustling streets outside, the quietness here was extremely scary, the guests sitting on the first floor all remained silent, they just continued to drink their wine, and not chat with anyone else.
At this moment, an old man dressed in simple clothing appeared in front of everyone. He had a benevolent and friendly smile on his face. Looking at his age, he was only a few years younger than the seventy year old Elder Kong.
Old Kong, you brought your disciples to participate in the Imperial Great Competition again this year. You must have worked hard on the way here.
Elder Kong quickly cupped his hands together in greeting. ”Old Song, we've known each other for many years. It's not good for you to be so formal with him.”
After exchanging a few more polite words, the old man, who was called Old Song, led everyone from Mountain Sea Pavilion up to the second floor of the Cloud Viewing Pavilion.
Just as he entered the second floor, Maki Chen's expression immediately darkened.
At this moment, more than thirty people were seated on the seats to the left of the second floor and among these more than thirty people, there were a few who were extremely familiar to Maki Chen. Surprisingly, they were the Clear Sky Sword Sect disciples who started a conflict with them a few days ago, and the black clothed youth who had extraordinary strength was currently coldly staring at Maki Chen!
Old Kong naturally noticed the people from the Clear Sky Sword Sect as well. His expression changed slightly, but very quickly, he returned to his previous calm as he continued to chat with Old Song.
