Chapter 857 -861: A Visitor from Yuheng
…
The emerald sky was clear, the earth picturesque, strands of brilliant light gracefully and gorgeously traced the arc of the sky dome and the land.
Those strands of light, the afterglow of flying swords, carried along a procession of female figures with enchanting celestial elegance. Clad in splendid palace attire and fastened with colorful sashes, their sword flight between heaven and earth was like celestial maidens and sword immortals touring the mortal realm, a scene of unparalleled beauty!
The leading lady, her eyebrows like distant mountains, her eyes like azure rivers, her full peach lips exuded sensuality and radiance, yet her aura was like that of plum blossoms in winter’s night, a fragrance reserved for solitude.
“Greetings to all the Yuheng fairies,” a voice said.
At a cloud tower, the Xuange God, Flaunting God, Hua Chong, Xiang Shen, Wine God, and other Tianshu True Gods stood amidst the clouds, awaiting the sword maidens from Yuheng Star Palace.
“Xuan Ge elder sister, why go to such lengths to welcome us from so far away…” The leading sword cultivator fairy said with a warm smile, speaking to Xuan Ge.
“This cloud tower will spare you the trouble of a weary journey. Just rest here for a while, and the tower will float towards the capital,” Xuan Ge replied.
“What a special cloud tower! With such a tower, would we not tire even from the longest journeys?” a sword cultivator fairy with her hair combed into long twin tails asked.
The twin-tailed lady was spirited and unrestrained, elegant and lively, with one question following another.
“Lou Qian, go and rest. If you’re not tired, the other senior and junior sisters are,” the lady with peach lips and cold plum-like demeanor said.
“Sister Linghu, it’s just that I haven’t seen many things…” the girl replied.
“Allow me to answer the young lady’s questions. Tianshu has its own unique features,” Xiang Shen offered, stepping forward to speak to the twin-tailed lady.
“Thank you,” Linghu Ling said.
…
The Xuange Country Capital lit up with colorful lanterns, orange, peach, carp gold, maple leaf red…
The lanterns were ingeniously scattered about; some dazzlingly hung on the already magnificent streets, some artistically piled to form a pagoda of lanterns, others floated in the sky, scattered amongst the stars, outshining their beauty!
The most romantic feature of Xuange Country Capital was its colors, whether it was the inherently vivid and colorful Mount Xia, the painted pavilions and halls, or even the otherwise cold city walls which were mainly light cyan…
This was significantly different from the predominantly jade-white God Country of Yuheng, so the celestial maidens from Yuheng Star Palace found themselves deeply intrigued by this place.
Initially, the style of Hua Chou was too religiously austere. They weren’t very enthusiastic about coming to Tianshu, but upon arriving in Xuange Country Capital and experiencing its unique charm, they couldn’t stop praising it.
Xuan Ge, controlling the floating cloud towers, took the celestial maidens around Xuange Country Capital for a brief tour before leading them to Xuan Ge Temple and arranging for the guests from Yuheng Star Palace to stay at Coral Jade Mansion, which was exquisite and elegant, nestled against Cloud Sky Mountain and near a misty waterfall…

The divine leaders gathered in God Country’s capital.
Among these leaders, which included central figures like Hua Chong, Flaunting, and Ming Meng, Xuan Ge did not meet any of them personally, except for the visitors from Yuheng Star Palace. Xuan Ge not only personally welcomed them but also intentionally accompanied them.
Any True God or leader could see that Xuan Ge regarded the visitors from the God Territory of Yuheng very highly.
And this was to be expected.
Yuheng and Kaiyang held the leadership among the Seven Stars of the North Dipper. Divine visitors from these two great territories would not be neglected by Xuan Ge.
“Behind you is Cloud Sky Mountain, home to the Cloud Sky Spring. The celestial maidens can take a calming soak in the spring. Not only is it beneficial for one’s cultivation base, but it can also nourish the complexion, preserving youth forever,” the Xiang Shen spoke.
“I’m not very interested in these things. I am wondering if there are any sword cultivators among you in Tianshu whom I could spar with. Only by matching skills with the strong can I improve,” a female sword enthusiast said.
She had only just arrived in Tianshu and was already eager to issue a challenge.
Xuan Ge was aware that Yuheng Star Palace harbored many sword enthusiasts, but this seemed a little too impatient.
Showcasing strength is indeed something every Divine Territory does upon meeting, but they should not be arranging combat as soon as they have set foot and rested, should they?
“How do the sword cultivators of Tianshu compare with those from Yuheng?” Xuan Ge asked politely.
“Are you saying that Tianshu doesn’t have a single sword cultivator who can present a challenge?” The female sword enthusiast didn’t bother with politeness or social niceties, bluntly speaking her mind.
“Is the Martial Saint not a sword cultivator? Could you ask her to come?” Xiang Shen suggested.
“Is the Martial Saint a True God?” the female sword enthusiast inquired.
“She is the Sacred Honor of Xuange Divine Country, skilled in warfare and governance,” Xuan Ge responded.
“Good, tomorrow morning I shall spar with her. If she can defeat me, I shall gift her this jade sword,” the female sword enthusiast declared.
“I apologize, Elder Sister Xuan Ge. My junior and senior sisters have recently reached a bottleneck. Our God Yuheng suggested that they seek out and learn from sparring with strong individuals from other Divine Territories, as it would be beneficial for their cultivation base and realm. Therefore, they are more inclined to make friends through martial means…” Linghu Ling proposed more gently, yet she clearly expressed the inevitability of the anticipated divine combat between gods.
“No worries. We are also prepared for this. It’s just that I didn’t expect you to be so obsessed that you would be unwilling to rest for a few more days after such a long journey. It’s admirable, having a pure mind with no distractions, solely dedicated to the pursuit of swordsmanship. That’s what being a part of North Dipper Yuheng is all about,” Xuan Ge said with a smile, not at all surprised by the circumstance.
Naturally, Xuan Ge had arranged for people to spar in martial combat.
However, their request for a sword cultivator was somewhat unexpected.
There weren’t many sword cultivators in Tianshu; there were Divine and Mortal from all domains, and the majority were martial cultivators, with Hua Chou being a martial cultivator himself.
As for Dragon Trainers…
Regrettably, at the level of gods, virtually no Divine and Mortal would be willing to spar with a peer who is a Dragon Trainer. That wouldn’t be considered sparring but rather just taking a beating!
…
“Go, inform Li Yunzi,” Xuan Ge instructed Xiang Shen. “It’s timely; there’s a matter that requires her personal verification, a doubt that has lingered in my mind for some time.”
“What doubt?” Xiang Shen inquired.
“Appearances can deceive, but abilities cannot be hidden,” Xuan Ge stated.
“Could there actually be a genuine and fake Martial Saint??” Xiang Shen gleaned the implication in Xuan Ge’s words.
“It is just a suspicion, perhaps illusory… When you accompanied her to negotiate with Ming Meng, how did she fly, and did she demonstrate any divine skills?” Xuan Ge asked.
“She was carried there by the dragon of Master Zhu, and she didn’t show any divine skills. When Ming Meng acted out, it was Master Zhu who stepped up to handle the situation. It seems Ming Meng didn’t want to resort to force in the territory of Xuange Divine Country Capital, and in the end, gave up,” Xiang Shen explained.
“Oh, let’s have a look tomorrow then. It would be best if the suspicion could be dispelled,” Xuan Ge concluded.
