Human Clan Defender

Chapter 1030 - 113-114: Elder You, Heavenly Domain (Combined - )

"Indeed, these are the talents chosen from our Candle Sect."

Zhongshan Dongxuan nodded.

Upon hearing this.

The elderly man glanced at everyone, then his gaze lingered a moment on Zhongshan Xia: "Since our last meeting, Xia has improved quite a bit. If you enter the Divine Mandate Platform this time, you should perform well."

"Greetings, Elder You!"

Zhongshan Xia rarely showed a respectful expression on his face.

It was evident that he understood the identity of the old man before him.

But all the other direct disciples present were completely baffled.

"Work hard, our Zhongshan Clan has been dormant for a long time, perhaps your generation can rise!"

The elderly man smiled slightly, then moved his gaze from Zhongshan Xia, letting it rest on each direct disciple, as if trying to see through them.

When his gaze fell upon Shen Changqing.

He stopped.

His cloudy eyes seemed to clear a bit, and his expressionless face showed some emotion.

"This child’s eyes hold something, could it be—"

"Not long ago, our Zhongshan Clan went to war with the Dushan Clan, and a talent in the Void Battlefield comprehended the Eyes of Time."

Zhongshan Dongxuan said solemnly.

Eyes of Time!

Upon hearing this name, the old man’s eyes shot out a brilliant light, and for the first time, there was a smile on his wrinkled face.

"Ah, how wonderful, I never expected that after countless ages, our clan has finally produced another child who comprehended the Eyes of Time!"

His voice was somewhat excited, and his fingers trembled slightly.

After a moment.

The old man’s spirit calmed a bit, and he shook his head: "It’s a pity, though, this child’s foundation is still too weak. He needs to hone himself well. If he can enter the Divine King Realm in the future, let him come to see me again."

"Alright!"

Zhongshan Dongxuan nodded.

"Then I’ll take them away now."

"Mm, go... By the way, child, what’s your name?"

The old man stepped aside, and as Shen Changqing passed by, he suddenly asked.

Upon hearing.

Shen Changqing hesitated for a moment but answered truthfully: "Junior Zhongshan Chou!"

"Zhongshan Chou... hmm, I remember, go ahead."

The old man murmured the name once more and then said no more.

Seeing this.

Despite feeling puzzled, Shen Changqing did not ask further questions and followed behind Zhongshan Dongxuan.

The tunnel was long.

It took nearly half a quarter of an hour to finally reach the exit of the cave.

Once outside, Shen Changqing suddenly realized that the cave’s exit was within a grand hall.

The hall was thousands of feet high, more like a small city than a hall, and the beams supporting the hall were thick, like pillars that seemed to hold up the heavens.

Above the hall were stairs leading to a golden throne.

Other than that.

The hall had no excessive decorations.

Yet even so, it still gave him a strong sense of oppression.

Reflecting on Zhongshan Chou’s memories, Shen Changqing still couldn’t understand where this place was.

At this moment.

Zhongshan Dongxuan said: "This is the main hall of our clan, where our clan’s Emperor discusses matters. Ordinary cultivators in the clan do not have the privilege to set foot here."

Main hall!

Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing’s heart suddenly understood.

So this was the main hall of the Zhongshan Clan.

Zhongshan Chou, though a member of the Zhongshan Clan, didn’t have much cultivation strength while staying within the clan and later directly joined the Candle Sect.

The Zhongshan Clan’s main hall, he had never had any involvement with.

Thus.

Finding no corresponding information in his memories was completely normal.

At this time.

A middle-aged man entered from outside the hall and bowed to Zhongshan Dongxuan.

"Greetings, Dongxuan Divine King!"

"No need for formalities." Zhongshan Dongxuan said calmly: "I have brought the talents selected by the Candle Sect, and now it’s up to you to arrange them."

"The Divine King’s command, I dare not disobey."

The man’s voice remained respectful.

Zhongshan Dongxuan nodded slightly, then turned and left, re-entering the tunnel.

As he left, the middle-aged man straightened up, looked at Shen Changqing and the others, and smiled: "I am Zhongshan Changhong, ranked seventh among the clan elders."

After speaking.

He focused on Zhongshan Xia.

"Elder Xia, I suppose there’s no need for me to make arrangements for you?"

"No need for trouble."

Zhongshan Xia replied calmly.

Upon hearing this, Zhongshan Changhong simply smiled.

Zhongshan Xia was well-known within the Candle Sect and equally well-known within the Zhongshan Clan.

Being a Candle Sect Elder means his status within the clan is not low.

Thus.

He was quite familiar with Zhongshan Xia.

After Zhongshan Xia left on his own, Zhongshan Changhong addressed the others again: "Come with me!"

——

To enter the Heavens, any clan exists independently within their own territories.

The Zhongshan Clan, capable of having a Rule Divine King, occupies at least a Mid-Thousand World, possibly even a Daqian World.

Early on, in Zhongshan Chou’s memories, Shen Changqing had gained a certain understanding of the Zhongshan Clan.

Moreover, having witnessed the vastness of the Eternal Ancient Continent.

Now, seeing another vast world, it no longer held much surprise.

"You are all emerged from the clan, so there’s no need for me to introduce too much. Your goal is to head to the Divine Mandate Platform and fight for fortune for our clan.

So the place you go this time, you might find unfamiliar."

A long boat passed through the firmament, with Zhongshan Changhong smiling faintly on the boat.

Instead of using the Teleportation Array, he directly took Shen Changqing and the others there because it wasn’t necessary.
