Chapter 320: Chapter 241: Emissary from the Dynasty

“Divine Envoy Xie Yanfeng pays his respects to Emperor Gu!”

In the royal court, a middle-aged cultivator faced Emperor Gu Yang, seated upon the imperial throne, and performed a respectful bow with a reverent demeanor.

The gaze of the other ministers was now squarely focused on the visitor.

Given the numerous foreign cultivators now present in the Nine States, the people of the royal court were far from ignorant about the matters of the Ancient Desolate World, especially concerning a major power like the Divine Wind Dynasty, which had produced several Saints over the generations.

What baffled them, however, was why the Divine Wind Dynasty would send someone.

After all,

the Divine Martial Dynasty had no relation to the Divine Wind Dynasty.

Among the tens of thousands of cultivators buried within the Nine States, none were from the Divine Wind Dynasty.

Therefore,

the current arrival from the Divine Wind Dynasty was intriguing.

Atop the throne,

Gu Yang looked down at the man below. When Xie Yanfeng arrived, an Imperial Confidant quietly transmitted a message informing him that the person before him was at least a Daoist Palace Realm powerhouse.

In the past, facing a Daoist Palace Realm powerhouse directly, Gu Yang certainly had no confidence.

After all, the Divine Martial Dynasty was weak, and even tapping into the dynasty’s Qi Fortune had little chance of suppressing a Daoist Palace Realm opponent.

Furthermore,

Xie Yanfeng was likely not just an ordinary Daoist Palace Realm cultivator.

But now,

Gu Yang had the Divine Phoenix Tower in hand. Although he could not wield much of the Great Saint Weapon’s divine might, he believed he could temporarily fend off an attack from a Daoist Palace Realm adversary.

Additionally,

the Gu Family Manor was located within the Capital.

Should the other party truly dare mount an assassination, the man before him most certainly would not live to leave the Capital.

For several reasons,

Gu Yang faced a Daoist Palace Realm figure with full confidence, his demeanor calm and composed.

“The Divine Martial Dynasty has never had ties with the Divine Wind Dynasty. For what pressing matter does the Divine Wind Dynasty send someone this time?” he inquired.

“Our Emperor has long admired the renown of the Divine Martial Dynasty and has always yearned to meet Emperor Gu. Therefore, he has sent me to foster relations between our two nations.

Additionally, this is a congratulatory gift my Emperor specifically tasked me to bring. I hope Emperor Gu will kindly accept it.”

As his words fell, Xie Yanfeng produced a storage ring. With a glance from Gu Yang, a eunuch at his side approached the other man, took the storage ring, and then passed it to Gu Yang.

The latter’s Divine Thought probed into the storage ring, his expression subtly shifting.

He saw numerous blood-red stones within the ring, items with which Gu Yang was familiar.

Divine Blood Stones!

A substance mined from Spirit Stone veins.

Since they were blood-red throughout, as though forged from fresh blood, they were named Divine Blood Stones.

Gu Yang understood that not only were Divine Blood Stones a true currency in the Ancient Desolate World, but cultivators could also refine them to enhance their Cultivation.

The last time he searched so many storage pouches and rings during his sect’s defense, Gu Yang found just over a thousand catties of inferior-grade Divine Blood Stones.

From this fact alone,

it was clear how precious Divine Blood Stones were.

Now, this storage ring contained nearly three thousand catties of inferior-grade Divine Blood Stones.

Seeing this,

Gu Yang’s expression softened a good deal: “When Divine Envoy Xie returns, please convey my thanks to Emperor Yang.”

“Your words will surely be relayed to His Majesty upon my return. Furthermore, I am here on a mission with another matter to discuss with Emperor Gu.”

Xie Yanfeng smiled slightly and then got straight to the point.

“What matter?” asked Gu Yang.

“The Divine Wind Dynasty wishes to establish a Transmission Array in the Nine States, enabling our two nations to exchange what we need. The materials required for the construction of the Transmission Array will all be provided by our Divine Wind Dynasty. May I inquire if Emperor Gu would agree to this?”

Xie Yanfeng at that moment revealed his true intention.

Establish a Transmission Array!

Allow each other’s entry!

Gu Yang did not respond immediately but fell into deep thought.

He had not anticipated that this would be the visitor’s aim.

Once a Transmission Array was set up, people from the Divine Wind Dynasty could directly enter the Nine States through it, and similarly, those from the Nine States could step directly into the Divine Wind Dynasty.

Previously, the Ancient Beast Mountain Range served as a barrier, blocking most cultivators from entering the Nine States, but if a Transmission Array were established, the barrier would become virtually ineffective.

Although the Ancient Beast Mountain Range’s usefulness had already diminished greatly, it was still a barrier; without it, the number of cultivators from the Ancient Desolate World arriving in the Divine Martial Dynasty would potentially increase tenfold or a hundredfold.

After pondering for a moment,

Gu Yang said, “The Divine Martial Dynasty is newly established, and there is much to be rebuilt. The Nine States have yet to find true stability, so perhaps the matter of the Transmission Array can be postponed for now. Let’s revisit this at a later date!”

Upon hearing this,

Xie Yanfeng’s expression shifted before he finally bowed and replied, “In that case, I will return and report back.”

“No hurry, Divine Envoy Xie has just arrived in the Nine States. Why not stay a few days and experience the culture and customs of the Divine Martial Dynasty!”

“Then I thank Emperor Gu for his gracious invitation!”

Xie Yanfeng did not decline.

…

“Personage from the Divine Wind Dynasty has come!”

Gu Qingfeng looked at the report from a Hidden Guard in his hand, his expression showing a hint of movement.

He was familiar with the Divine Wind Dynasty, an ancient monarchy founded by a Saint in the Eastern Domain eighty thousand years ago, from which a Saint would emerge every ten to twenty thousand years.

As such, the inheritance and foundations of the Divine Wind Dynasty were extraordinary.

But.

Upon seeing the purpose of the Divine Wind Dynasty’s visit, brilliance flashed in Gu Qingfeng’s eyes.

Establish a Transmission Array!

However, seeing Gu Yang’s refusal, Gu Qingfeng inwardly nodded in understanding.

Once a Transmission Array was established, it would signify that whatever little function the Ancient Beast Mountain Range had left would vanish entirely, and cultivators from the Divine Wind Dynasty would be able to freely step into the Nine States.
