The Way of the Sword (BL)

Chapter 60: Floating Island 102

The man in the black mask was silent for a while before answering, the subordinates were tense and the woman looked anxious too.

"We can make an attempt to take the tiger cub, as for the two eggs it is better to wait for the reaction of this powerful person. I believe the master will not disagree with our decision, "the man said after a few minutes. Soon the woman took a small red rock and used some of her blood to feed the stone, which turned into a small red swallow, moments later that swallow literally flew away at the speed of light.

A few minutes later a white bird appeared in the blink of an eye, the bird went to the man in the black mask, who raised his hand receiving the bird.

"Master Song said we should keep an eye on the black tiger, but on the eggs of magic beasts, we should not worry about that. In the future he will send Brother Yin to this task, "said the man in the black mask, the bird after sending the reply, made one last joke and disappeared. 

"Wow, Brother Yin Master Song must be really trying to get his hands on these eggs," said the masked woman with a tone full of fear and respect.

"This is none of our business. Let's use the eagle eyes and owls' hoops plan, "said the indifferent man, he didn't care about this brother Yin either.

"You mean we'll just sit around and just write down what this junior disciple is doing. You don't have to put in such a pathetic code! "Said the bored woman. This work partner of yours had very wandering thoughts!

As these mysterious people decided their plans, Zemin Yan's group lined up in front of Gate 102. 

"This little tiger?" Chu Yue asked as they waited. She saw a little about what happened, but she didn't hear the conversation between Zemin Yan and the others.

"Sying liked him, so I asked the guard to compare for me, so when he gets to the sect and has achieved something I should try to speak well of him in the sect," said Zemin Yan lying without a shred of guilt. If it was Yi Yuga asking, then he could tell the truth. However, Chu Yue would be shocked by the truth, plus how would he explain his connection with Zhong Liang?

"Oh But wouldn't this imperial guard take much of you?" Asked Chu Yue looking suspiciously at the "imperial guard" Zhong. Of course, in her view, Zemin Yan can reach the top of the cultivation, so this guard would definitely gain a lot from this transaction.

"That was a vote of confidence, which is very significant to me that I'm nobody yet," said Zemin Yan strangely feeling upset by Chu Yue's words while trying to defend the honor of this imperial guard Zhong.

"You're very nice, Brother Yan!" Said Chu Yue with her gentle voice and rosy cheeks, but Zemin Yan just blinked his beautiful brown eyes without understanding the reason for that sentence. 

The imperial guard Zhong still carried the small white dog, which seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep. The sacred energy of his body interacted with the demonic energy of Zhong Liang's dantin, this close interaction caused drowsiness in the little dog. Zhong Liang was feeling a little better since the demonic energy was calmer than usual. 

Anyway, everyone went through the great gate and everyone left and was surprised to look around. They were at the entrance of a small town! It was like something like the city of heaven!

There were medium five-story buildings and two-story houses, the streets were beautiful, paved and tree-lined, everything seemed to glow, and in the middle of the city was a large square. In this square were three large platforms with bleachers around them, all floating above the square that was full of lively and strong people, there were several shops and stalls scattered around the square in the middle there was a beautiful fountain that was the size of several carriages. 

It was striking the conception of several cities floating in just a certain space, the inexperienced young people were surprised and those who have passed or been instructed about the places were not so amazed.

Zemin Yan had already researched the history of the continent, especially the Qin Empire or what was once the Souk Empire. Of course, it was some jade record with information about the continent, not recent information, but cultures, histories, and societies that were considered very advanced. 

He had read about the famous cities of heaven, now Zemin Yan wondered if these islands are based on the cities of heaven. The hitherto discovered continents were six, two continents under human rule, one wild continent, two continents that are divided between devils and beasts and a forbidden continent.

However, in the Dark Ages, after the disappearance of the emperors of the kingdom's emperors, the devils, and the high intelligence magic beasts started a war against humans. So many societies, empires and clans "disappeared" from the human continent, but in fact, these people were very strong, but compared to the strong and invincible army of the devils, these few people could only be massacred.

Then in the early years of the Dark Ages, these strong people escaped and built what would be considered the Heavenly City, which became a haven for the cultivators of all human empires. 

It was also during this period that the weaker humans were massively eliminated, there were seas of blood and offal on the earth. The cultivators secluded themselves waiting for the right "moment" to act and counterattack the devils.

The creation of the heavenly cities was maintained by mysterious formations and matrices, until today when studying the history and creation of this city has not been discovered what was used as material to uproot the earth from the ground and allow it to float above the clouds. Nor was it possible to reproduce this feat even after the end of the Dark Age.

The irony of all this is that the founders of the great sects were actually born of the abandoned humans and had to face the pain of seeing their families torn apart, struggling to survive and opening a path of blood. As a result of this, there is a phrase still used today by cultivators: "If you are just a heavenly cultivator, then you do not follow the true path of Dao."

However, Zemin Yan was curious in his heart about the true Celestial City, because in the jade discs there was some information about the beauty of the city and the technology that was very advanced not only for the time, even today many of the technologies could not be copied that place.

Heavenly City has become a legend and a story to make children sleep, the city has disappeared after the rise of the sects. This made sense, as the sects were created by earlier weak humans, who had been abandoned by the strong "cultivators".
