(Central Continent )
Right at the Eastern Sky Imperial Palace, there was a single figure of a man dressed in luxury while gazing towards the several soul jades that had already dimmed.
" The Han Empire. I didn't expect that the Cultivator I sent to search for Tai Bai's whereabouts and his sister could die." Xu Dongtian who was the King of the Eastern Sky Kingdom looked furious as his subordinates were already dead in the territory of the Han Empire.
Xu Dongtian thought that the Han Empire had already dared to oppose the Kingdom that came from the Middle Continent.
" They think the Eastern Sky Kingdom will stay silent?" Xu Dongtian was not at all afraid of the Han Empire, even though they were only Kingdom-shaped.
But as for the matter of the Cultivators' development, only Cultivators from the Central Continent had high-level abilities.
" Great General, gather the soldiers to destroy the Han Empire." Xu Dongtian gave the order.
" But His Majesty, are we not asking the other kingdoms for help?" Ask the Great General.
" It's not necessary! With our strength alone, we are able to destroy the Han Empire." Said Xu Dongtian who was so confident in the abilities of his troops.
Of course it was all because the soldiers of the Eastern Sky Kingdom had averaged to reach the Star Realm, whereas the Han Empire only had soldiers who had averaged to reach the Holy Stars.
" Good, Your Majesty the King." Said the Great General, then left the place for the soldiers' residence.
" Don't let this news be known to the Celestial Emperor. This could embarrass Cultivators who were in the Middle Continent." Xu Dongtian clenched his hands together, as it was only the first time that anyone dared to bully a Cultivator who came from the Central Continent.
Not too long later some General figures appeared in that place, while bowing their heads.
" Hail Your Majesty the King." Say them in unison.
" Mm-hm... Use the royal airship to go to the Han Empire. Ask the manager of the Resource warehouse to give the Spirit Stone to fuel the airship." Xu Dongtian gave the order.
" Good, Your Majesty the King." Answer them in unison, then leave the place.
Of course, the journey to the Eastern Continent takes a long time by sailing, because no one can fly while in the middle of the vast ocean.
Although the Eastern Sky Kingdom had airships, they also had to sail first before reaching the mainland.

(Eastern Continent )
Liu Ryu and his traveling wife have now arrived at a very crowded residential area.
" My husband, why is this place so crowded? Wasn't this place the very edge of the Han Empire." Xie Xian felt astonished because the citizens in that place were not as usual.
Even the settlement was shrouded in a white smog that seemed to protect something.
" We have to find out, but we have to be careful too." Said Liu Ryu, then brought them into the gate of the settlement.
Wuush!
While entering the settlement of the citizens, Liu Ryu and his wife felt their cultivation levels were all disguised.
Even Liu Ryu and his Wife could not measure each other's cultivation levels, which made Liu Ryu instantly raise their vigilance.
Yet of the few citizens they met, all of them greeted the friendly arrival of Liu Ryu and his wife, even though they were wearing masks.
The incident continued over and over again, but to Liu Ryu's astonishment, the citizens had no intention of harming them.
The houses of the residents are also lined with stilt houses with very unique carvings almost throughout their homes.
Out of curiosity, Liu Ryu came to one of the older men who were passing by them.
" Excuse me uncle, is this place an inn?" Ask Liu Ryu.
" Oh that... If you want to find lodging here, nothing. But mister and miss can stay at my place, or at the village chief's house." Said the old man while bowing his head.
Of course it made Liu Ryu and his wife even more surprised, because the village was not like other villages.
But behind the friendly gazes of the citizens, Liu Ryu could feel that the citizens were harboring great power.
" Okay uncle. Then can you show me where the village chief is?" Ask Liu Ryu.
" Lord can pass this way, there is a house on the biggest and tallest stage. That's where the village chief lives." The man pointed in a direction.
" Thank you uncle. Then we'll say good-bye first." Said Liu Ryu, then walked in the direction indicated.
Not long after they had arrived at a house on the highest and largest stage, where they were immediately welcomed by the village chief.
The head of the village brought them into the house, where there was a small child aged 10 years.
The little boy immediately looked at Liu Ryu and his wife in turn, then walked up to the village chief.
" Grandfather, it looks like we have guests from the beasts and the fairies. Some are even born from the universe. But they look good." The little boy whispered to the village chief while shaking his grandfather's arm.
Although the voice was very slow, it could still be heard by Liu Ryu and his wife who made them shocked.
" My granddaughter, you better play out there. It's not good to talk like that to guests." The village chief gestured the little boy so as not to disturb their conversation.
" Good grandfather." Answer the child, then walk out the other door.
" Mister, miss... Sorry for my granddaughter's care. My granddaughter just wanted to talk." The village chief smiled awkwardly while bowing his head.
" uncle... Looks like your grandson has special abilities." Sheng Zhishu did not take heart at all, because what the little boy said earlier was indeed true.
A moment appeared the figure of a woman who served a cup of warm tea as well as various kinds of dishes.
After that the woman said goodbye to leave the place again continue her work.
" Mister, miss... If you want to spend the night here, I'll clean some rooms in that section. It's just this is how we're doing." Said the village chief who seemed to dodge if Liu Ryu asked their names.
A question in the minds of Liu Ryu and his wife, how could the figure possibly know that they have a husband-wife relationship.
And most importantly, the room indicated by the village chief, could not accommodate the number of Liu Ryu and his Wife. Did the village chief know that Liu Ryu had a small World?
" Okay uncle. For a while we asked permission to stay here for a few days." Out of curiosity, Liu Ryu wanted to find out the strangeness of the citizens in that place.
With a warm smile, the village chief invited Liu Ryu and his wife to stay in the room provided.
