The fight in the North Territory that had created an uproar on Tianluo Continent finally came to an end. However, even afterwards, the entire Tianluo Continent was still talking about it, as everyone had been so taken aback by the turn of events.

One year ago when the Mu Estate fought with the three overlords in the North Territory, the estate became well-known on Tianluo Continent. Not only that, but this fight had also brought the Mu Estate to the highest level on Tianluo Continent. Many forces were fearful, and at the same time, filled with respect for the estate.

From now on, the North Territory belonged to the Mu Estate, and no forces dared to eye it anymore. The other top forces on Tianluo Continent would be wary of the Mu Estate as well.

There were Heavenly Sovereigns in the Mu Estate, and given Mu Chen's stunning combat force, the Mu Estate would have been added to the list of supreme powers, if not for their weak foundation. If Mu Chen was on another continent, based on his strength alone, he could have taken over the entire continent and made it his exclusive property, and no one would have dared to say a word against him.

These were the rules in the Great Thousand World. As long as one became a Heavenly Sovereign, it was as if he were the most powerful being in the Great Thousand World, controlling it. He would be well respected and regarded as the ruler of a region.

However, Tianluo Continent was, after all, one of the supercontinents in the Great Thousand World. It had rich resources that one could not even dream of that even the supreme powers were eyeing. Although it looked as though there was no Heavenly Sovereign on Tianluo Continent, there were supreme powers behind every top force secretly backing them up.

In such a complicated environment, even with Mu Chen heading the Mu Estate, they were still unable to rule over Tianluo Continent, even though they seemed to stand out from the top forces. They could only take over the North Territory at the moment.

If the Mu Estate had taken over by force, they might have caused displeasure among the other supreme powers. If that happened, it would involve more supreme powers besides the Zi Qi Spiritual Cave, Thunder Temple, and Long Diao Cave.

If the Mu Estate had too many enemies, Mu Chen would not be able to handle them unless he was at the Divine Heavenly Sovereign level. By then, he could easily take over Tianluo Continent.

Thus, after the victory, Mu Chen passed down orders that the Mu Estate only take over the North Territory and not the other regions. This was to avoid having conflicts with or retaliation from the supreme powers behind the forces. After all, the Mu Estate would need a long while to put things in order after taking over the North Territory.

In the Ancient Celestial Palace at the Mu Estate.

A ray of light came down from the heavens and landed on a towering mountain beside the Heavenly River. Mu Chen then appeared on the peak of the mountain and sat cross-legged on it. He looked down from the peak and saw the Heavenly River twirling around the towering mountain like a jade belt.

Several stone cultivation platforms had been set up around the Heavenly River, and many people were cultivating on them. Mu Chen's earlier movement had created a great impact, and many people were looking in his direction.

Usually, those who came to the Heavenly River to cultivate were the young promising people from the various sects. This was because the people at that age would benefit the most from the Heavenly River. The young men looked outstanding, and the girls were young and beautiful with ethereal qualities. They made the area look more interesting.

”Look, that is the Estate Master!” When Mu Chen appeared on the mountain outside the Heavenly River, many young men and girls looked at him with admiration.

”Estate Master is so impressive. He is so young, but he has already stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign level and become one of the masters in the Great Thousand World,” many beautiful girls said in adoration as they looked at Mu Chen.

”Hahaha, stop dreaming, friends. Our Estate Master is so high up. He would not take a liking to us,” a rational girl said, laughing.

A young man said, ”I have heard that our Estate Master has already found his soulmate. She is the lady who has cultivated the Luo God Celestial Body. She will be the Great Beauty in the Great Thousand World. You had better stop dreaming.” Having said that, the young man glanced at the girls who were around.

The area around the Heavenly River was suddenly bustling with a lot of people. Although Mu Chen was far from the Heavenly River, he was able to capture the conversations and laughter that was going on around the river. He found it funny and embarrassing at the same time.

When he saw the young men and girls, he had some mixed feelings. He recalled the days when he was still at the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy. When he was cultivating there, he was filled with admiration for the top powers, just like the young men and girls here were.

When Mu Chen thought of it, he smiled. After he put away these thoughts, a ray of light shot out from his eyes. It turned into a crystal pagoda that hung before him.

For the past few days, he had been staying in the Mu Estate to ensure that the entire North Territory was under control. He was able to put aside some time now to enter the Ancient Celestial Palace to deal with the problem that was still in the crystal pagoda.

When he fought Ancestor Xuan Tian a few days ago, he had only suppressed Ancestor Xuan Tian in the pagoda and had not truly defeated him. Mu Chen had some time at the moment to finish him off. If he did not do that, he would not be able to use the pagoda in the future when dealing with his enemies.
