The Sacred Leaves Family's Wishes for Peace-Chapter 427 - 545: Train to Grand Emperor Before Leaving!

Chapter 545: Train to Grand Emperor Before Leaving!

Nie Zhe realized this was his last chance. With a roar that shook the air, he bellowed:

"Stop them!"

More than thirty top-tier prodigies surged forward, forming a nearly impenetrable wall of human might, each of them radiating overwhelming power. The collective pressure was enough to make even some veteran Grand Elders hesitate.

"Go!" Fang Mu Ge’s voice rang out, low and commanding. Without hesitation, he led Fang Chen and Fang Ying in a headlong charge, their combined force tearing through the tightly packed line of attackers. In a flash, they stepped across the threshold of the Immortal-Seeking Manor’s gate.

The sight struck the assembled prodigies like a physical blow. Faces contorted with rage, veins throbbing, Nie Zhe and his companions were flushed crimson. Three dozen of them, including twelve top-tier prodigies, had tried everything—yet they could not capture Fang Ying, break through Fang Chen’s defenses, or stop Fang Mu Ge’s charge.

It was a humiliation far greater than any defeat in a direct fight. Their carefully laid plans had collapsed entirely. With Fang Mu Ge and Fang Ying entering the Manor, any hope of executing future schemes against them was gone, possibly forever. The realization left their faces dark with suppressed fury, and even their brief joy at entering the Manor was extinguished.

The moment Fang Mu Ge, Fang Chen, and Fang Ying stepped into the Manor, a sense of absolute safety enveloped them. Even if Nie Zhe or his entire clan were present, they would dare not make a move.

The reason was simple. Both the Tianyuan Realm’s Heavenly Emperor City and the Immortal-Seeking Manor were founded by Heavenly Emperors—but the difference between the two was as vast as a chasm. The Manor’s founder had traveled across multiple worlds, defeating the sole Heavenly Emperors of those realms. Since its establishment, the Manor had produced ten new Heavenly Emperors and hundreds of Grand Emperors.

Its strength and legacy were unmatched, even by the combined forces of all the powerhouses in the Tianyuan Realm. Nie Zhe and his peers understood this clearly. Hence, once the trio entered, their hostility vanished completely. They walked past them as if nothing had occurred.

For Fang Mu Ge, Fang Chen, and Fang Ying, the relief was immense. They no longer had to maintain constant vigilance. Inside the Manor, the most immediate sensation was the overwhelming richness of spiritual energy. It felt as if the very ground pulsed with raw essence.

Peaks rose sharply in the distance, shrouded in rolling clouds, though these were not ordinary mists—they were dense spiritual energy, so saturated that they could condense into spiritual rain at any moment. Every dominant power in the Tianyuan Realm possessed a Saint-level spiritual vein, but the intensity here far exceeded even the center of a Saint-level vein. The richest areas within the Manor would be unimaginable.

Even from this alone, it was evident that the Manor was far beyond suitable grounds for Saint Realm cultivation. An Emperor Realm prodigy could train here and still flourish. Fang Mu Ge and his companions could perfectly cultivate up to Grand Emperor level, gaining sufficient strength to defend themselves before leaving the Manor and returning to the Tianyuan Realm.

However, to achieve true self-sufficiency, they needed to reach at least Grand Emperor level. Their enemies were not ordinary—they were powerful factions with Grand Emperors and Emperor Weapons, twelve of them in total. Even for someone with Fang Mu Ge’s extraordinary talent, advancing from Saint King Realm to Grand Emperor would take considerable time.

Nonetheless, Fang Mu Ge, Fang Chen, and Fang Ying had already prepared for a prolonged stay within the Manor. Only Fang Chen was different. Habitually, he sought treasures wherever they appeared, and once collected, he would leave—so it was likely he would depart the Manor before fully reaching Grand Emperor.

As the trio took in their surroundings, a figure slowly coalesced before them. The person was elderly, with white hair and beard, exuding a calm and genial presence. Yet even top-tier prodigies felt a pressure surpassing any Grand Emperor they had encountered, forcing them to stand respectfully without any hint of defiance.

The old man’s smile was warm and welcoming. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"Welcome, prodigies of the Tianyuan Realm, to the Immortal-Seeking Manor. You may call me Elder Wei. I will guide you in understanding the Manor and its vast resources."

The group immediately bowed in respect.

"Greetings, Elder Wei."

Within the Manor, the term "Elder Wei" conveyed respect and familiarity. Outside, or in encounters with peers, they would have to address him as a senior, even the Fang family patriarch would humbly refer to him as a junior if they met again.

Elder Wei led the group deeper into the Manor, marking the official start of their cultivation journey here. The Tianyuan Realm’s Saint and Emperor prodigies now faced a place where spiritual energy, resources, and protective laws were beyond anything they had previously experienced.

Meanwhile, back in the Tianyuan Realm, the Nie family patriarch gazed at the summit of Tongtian Peak. Though the jade gate remained visible, it was closed and impassable, confirming that all who had completed the assessment had entered the Manor.

Normally, seeing two prodigies from his family enter would bring joy—but the Nie patriarch’s expression was grim, brow furrowed.

"I wonder if they were stopped," he muttered, concern and frustration mingling in his tone.

Beside him, the head of the Ancient Era Family, Pei, replied evenly:

"We cannot control what happens inside. Focus on tracking the remaining Fang family remnants. If captured, even an immortal body could become a bargaining chip."

The Nie patriarch nodded, his gaze sharp. Once again, a new round of secret searches for the Fang family began. Yet Fang Ting, deep within the Poisonous Valley of Wu Continent, was hardly easy to locate.

Other Fang family members continued to traverse the Tianyuan Realm. With Fang Chen now inside the Manor, Fang Luo and Fang Qiufeng traveled together. Fang Hao, though unaware of his family’s exact locations, spent most of his time in the Celestial Realm, occasionally returning to the Azure Sky Trading Association. Fang Chu planned to infiltrate the Moonwatch Tower’s tavern under the guise of a master brewer. Several Saint-level Hidden Dragons dispersed across the realm, seeking cultivation opportunities and treasures.

The Fang family’s extensive preparations ensured their safety even amid the relentless scrutiny of the twelve dominant powers.

Inside the Immortal-Seeking Manor, the stage was set. The air thrummed with spiritual energy, and every step taken by Fang Mu Ge, Fang Chen, and Fang Ying marked the beginning of a new Chapter—a Chapter of unparalleled growth and ambition, where they could cultivate to Grand Emperor level, harness the Manor’s immense resources, and prepare for the challenges yet to come in the wider Tianyuan Realm.
