Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

"You actually have two powers under your hands?" Yang Lujia was surprised by Yang Fei's response and even more so when how the latter calmly told him these things. If he lied, he would immediately know although he would not be a hundred percent sure. If he really lied, then there could only be a destructive storm upcoming in his life.

"Yes, Your Highness," Yang Fei replied. "The Hall of Commerce is a covert organization that is dealing with transactions with other factions, whether the transactions involve purchasing, buying, or even auction houses. The Hall of Commerce even accepts transactions that are of a very high level. Usually, when it comes to transactions like these, I would personally go out to complete them as it may involve killing someone out of almost everyone's league in Da Shikong."

"I see," he replied. "What about the Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order?"

Yang Fei's face turned solemn. "The Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order could be said to be the tipping point between the 'said behind-the-walls war' of the two temples. Anyhow, the Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order emerged when we helped fight against demons that emerged a long time ago. Its purpose is to eradicate demons and anyone who is deemed or treated as demons by the Order, the Order will issue a Death Warrant, letting all cultivators know that these particular beings are enemies of every being and that they, being demons, should be eradicated."

In fact, Yang Fei created this faction out of mere compliance for him to establish a footing in Da Shikong when he first came here. When he came here, his cultivation level was already very high. By his "a long time ago," he did not mean centuries—he only meant at most a decade ago. Thus, the demons that came out of their shells in the past—just happened not too long ago, as a matter-of-factly.

"After we return, you go back to these two factions and tell them that your master, His Highness, will arrive. In addition, have the Adventurers' Association submit as well—but not by force, I know of the Linghu Family who held the most power in this, so do not do anything rash. Moreover, do not also forget to subdue the other large factions. Most especially that sect that deals with dark-related rules…"

"You mean the Ground Destruction Sect, Your Highness?" Yang Fei asked, his eyes curious.

"If that's it, then that's it. This sect's people tried to harm those around me. I haven't forgotten about it yet and told their leader that I will be coming. As for the Second Region, I already have everything planned. You just have to wait. Whether the outcome sides with us or not, it will always side with us in the end. If we can't beat them through reasons, then force be it."

Yang Lujia dragged Yang Fei with him back to the airship. He always had been having a bad premonition in his heart that something detrimental to his fate would happen—and this foreboding feeling did not decrease a bit. It only kept on increasing and it somewhat made him worry about it.

"Let's go to the Holy Light Palace. As for you, tell me more about your mission—the reason why you were sent here," he said, looking at Yang Fei who was now standing behind him with Sheng Ao cultivating in his chamber after their short introduction. "If it involves too much, you may not answer but—"

"No, Your Highness. However, I can only say to you that what they're doing is also a plan for 'someone'. This 'someone' had been an enemy of the family for several years already—or so the rumor says. Because of this 'someone,' the family issued this specific mission that can only be completed in Da Shikong."

pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 That's why he was here. And because he had signed up for the task, no one except him bore this burden. "Your Highness, we have to be careful of whatever the higher-ups of Da Shikong were planning, especially those who sat at the top of the cultivators' chain in both temples and some palaces."

"What exactly are they trying to do?" Yang Lujia was confused. "Why are you telling me about politics now?"

"Because it involves something big that would happen sooner or later… no one knew… but I know about it. They called it the…"

"What? Stop trying to keep me in suspense, Yang Fei," he replied, annoyed at the man beside him.

"Eh? Okay…" Yang Fei lowered his head. "It's called Realm Amalgamation."

Tilting his head, he looked at the young man. "Realm Amalgamation? What's that?"

"I've only heard about it. In fact, although the Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order is considered to be the strongest faction in the four regions, there is still one faction who was tasked also for this big plan of theirs."

"Oh? What's that faction?"

"Eh?" Yang Fei flinched when Yang Lujia inched closer to him. He was so frightened that he almost collapsed. "Eh… it's… I still don't know which of them…"

The longer he chatted with this young man, the more Yang Lujia thought he was just a naïve kid, or perhaps he was just afraid of him taking action upon him. "You don't have to be afraid of me. I am not going to devour you or anything. I only want to know more information and it seems like you grasp most of them. Yang Fei, also, put away that purple eyes of yours. It's kind of annoying."

"Eh?"

"You keep saying 'eh' here and there. Just put away that pair of eyes of yours. I mean, not take out your eyeballs, but that purple eyes of yours. Just turn it back to black."

"I apologize, Your Highness. I cannot turn my pair of eyes from purple to a normal one of my own will. I am unlike the Royalties that could have that power. Once you are a Royalty, it is already a given that you can hide your purple eyes, but for us, who only had the thinnest bloodline in the family, we cannot do that. I think I've said enough, Your Highness."

"So, that's why," Yang Lujia replied. "Anyway, let's go to the Holy Light Palace for now. I want to know the truth regarding my disciple. Do you perhaps know Sheng Ao before I introduced him to you?"

"Yes, Your Highness. Sheng Ao is one of those geniuses out there who can literally be called a genius. He's a genius, a dragon among geniuses. You can call him a monster as well, Your Highness. When they become the Holy Son or Saint Son or the Dragon Son or whatever they call them of the same status, they are guaranteed to have one of the monstrous talents. Even when placed in the void, I can truly say that Sheng Ao's talent is top-notch. I'm glad Your Highness has taken a liking to him and took him as your disciple. Otherwise, Sheng Ao's talent would truly be limited in Da Shikong."

Yang Lujia turned to look at his meditating disciple. It seemed like Fortuniel really had good eyes. 'I probably won't recognize his talent if not for Fortuniel.'

"Anyway, the Holy Light Palace is ahead of us. We're nearing the place," Yang Lujia replied, as though he ignored what Yang Fei said.

When they reached the periphery of Holy Light Palace's territory, even if he saw it from already, seeing it up close, Yang Lujia was amazed by the structure of the establishments. Sheng Ao told him that every palace had no other factions other than the palaces themselves. They might have sub-factions but all of them were just branches of the palaces.

For instance, the Holy Light Palace had churches around them. Some factions also worshipped someone, the Holy Light Emperor like the Holy Light Sect or the Manor of Healing.

"Interesting," Yang Lujia said. "Sheng Ao," he called. "Are you done meditating? We're already here. I need to keep the airship here in the periphery, so we would not be labeled as one of the Human Emperor Palace people or attract unwanted attention. I just really want to know what they're up to… Realm Amalgamation, huh?"

"Realm Amalgamation…" Yang Fei repeated with a serious look on his face. "Your Highness, we have to be careful. It seems like the Human Emperor Palace is also here."

"I heard that they were attacked by void beasts and brought themselves to seek healing, but I highly doubt that."
