The Ji Family of Floating Mountain is the Guardian God of Daozhou, and one of the oldest inheritances in Daozhou.
Although the Ji Family governs Floating Mountain, they, like ordinary Sects and Sacred Lands, recruit disciples from outside.
However, Floating Mountain has extremely stringent standards for recruiting disciples, and it has been a long time since they have accepted any.
Because of this, the spies scattered throughout the Five Great Domains of Daozhou not only monitor the situation of these domains but also undertake the task of recruiting talented individuals.
Despite Floating Mountain never enforcing rigid rules, poor performance is met with internal penalties at Floating Mountain.
As a descendant of the Ji Family, Lu’er understands this clearly more than anyone else.
Therefore, she has been observing the outstanding talents in the East Desolate for the past three years.
However, it’s difficult to find the right candidates among this generation of geniuses in the East Desolate.
She has only a few candidates in mind.
Fang Xinyan of the Ninth Peak of Li Mountain Sword Pavilion, Song Qilin of the Third Peak.
Fierce Sun Saint of Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect, Golden Peng Saint of the Six Demon Sect, Mo Chenliang of the Mo family, Ye Qingyue of Red Sparrow Institute.
Regrettably, after contact, she realized none would fit.
These fellows are committed to striving for their Sects and won’t leave their Sects.
Ye Xuan’s appearance, however, gave her a glimpse of hope.
Perhaps, this person is the best candidate to join Floating Mountain and has a chance to become the Saint Heir of Floating Mountain.
If this comes true, it would be good news for her as well.
Floating Mountain would offer substantial rewards.
"Ye Gongzi, have you ever been to Floating Mountain?" Lu’er wasn’t ready to give up on the idea and asked once more.
Ye Xuan glanced at Lu’er and replied slowly, "Of course I’ve been there."
That place, he not only visited but has been there many times.
Why has the Ji Family become the Guardian God of Daozhou?
And why did the Ji Family choose Floating Mountain as the Sacred Land?
All of this, it’s feared that even the current disciples of the Ji Family and Floating Mountain can hardly explain clearly.
"Then, what is Gongzi’s view on our family?" Lu’er asked softly.
Ye Xuan, looking calmly at Lu’er, said quietly, "No need to probe, I won’t go to Floating Mountain anytime soon. When I decide to go, I’ll let you know in advance."
Lu’er wasn’t bothered by her thoughts being seen through, instead, she felt the person in front of her was indeed extraordinary, she smiled slightly and said, "Then I won’t disturb Gongzi’s feast. If Gongzi needs anything, just call for me."
"Additionally, Gongzi should be careful of those from the four clans and ten surnames who follow the Heavenly Dragon Human Emperor..."
With her words ending, Lu’er transformed into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared from Ye Xuan’s sight.
Once Lu’er left, Ye Xuan stepped towards the third floor.
’It seems that Floating Mountain has long ceased to enroll disciples, even sending out talented geniuses from the Ji Family’s direct bloodline...’
Ye Xuan murmured in his heart.
This was foreseeable.
After all, Floating Mountain’s recruitment standards are notoriously strict, unrivaled in the land of Daozhou.
Many famous geniuses have been disqualified by Floating Mountain’s standards, which leads many to feel despair towards Floating Mountain, thinking those geniuses were not good enough, so how could they be?
With this mindset, more and more people feel resistance towards Floating Mountain’s recruitment standards, instinctively not wanting to join Floating Mountain.
But this is just a small reason, Floating Mountain has always faced this issue, and they don’t care.
Because Floating Mountain only accepts geniuses with both virtue and talent.
Those who don’t want to come are often those with insufficient strength.
Such people aren’t useful even if they come.
The main reason, of course, is the depletion of Spiritual Energy, leading to fewer and fewer geniuses.
Moreover, Floating Mountain does not compromise, adhering to the previous standards, which further limits those able to join Floating Mountain.
In these ninety thousand years, the number of disciples recruited by Floating Mountain is likely few.
No wonder the Ji Family would even send out an unparalleled genius like Lu’er to personally screen talents.
Others might not see it, but Ye Xuan, possessing the Emperor Soul, can see Lu’er’s cultivation at a glance.
She surpassed the Saint Realm Great Cultivator as an Immortal.
’Enough, I’ll visit Central Earth later and check it out then...’ Ye Xuan thought to himself.
He stopped dwelling on Floating Mountain and focused on the present.
The latter words from Lu’er were naturally a reminder to him.
The four clans and ten surnames.
Presumably thinking their ancestors served as Emperor Generals under the Heavenly Dragon Emperor, reluctant to bow directly to him.
However, whether they bow or not is not for them to decide.
Some things must be given when due.
If not given, then a good account must be settled.
Ye Xuan is a reasonable person.
After leaving the main hall, Lu’er returned to the top floor, her graceful steps swaying seductively.
"Chen Fei." Lu’er called softly.
The next moment, the Void before Lu’er twisted and a young man in a red robe appeared out of nowhere.
This young man had an impressive figure, an outstanding presence, sharp sword-like eyebrows, eyes like stars.
He stood there, like a Divine Spear, upright and just.
Seeing Lu’er, the young man named Chen Fei spoke respectfully.
Lu’er looked calmly at Chen Fei and said gently, "Return to Floating Mountain and inquire about Ye Xuan’s past with Floating Mountain."
Chen Fei felt a slight tremor, though puzzled, he asked no further questions and replied respectfully, "Yes, miss."
"Deliver this item to my father then." Lu’er held a stack of Jade Scrolls, which flew to Chen Fei.
"Understood!" Chen Fei received the Jade Scrolls respectfully and disappeared.
Lu’er turned towards the west, a hint of solemnity in her beautiful eyes, she murmured softly, ’His origins are beyond imagination...’
Her mind couldn’t help but recall Ye Xuan’s demeanor during their conversation.
From start to finish, he remained serene and calm.
That kind of calmness felt as if nothing in the world could affect his emotions.
Yet she knew these were mere illusions.
If true, why would this Ye Xuan Gongzi appear here?
According to her, the source of all this stemmed from the Five Dominators of East Desolation and Divine Dragon Azure Sea who had bothered Ye Xuan, using Zhou Youwei to test him during Hengduan Mountain.
"Let’s inform the guys at Medicine Pavilion and Myriad Artifacts Saint Sect, lest they bring needless trouble..."
Lu’er thought it over, deciding to personally contact the ancestors of Myriad Artifacts Saint Sect and Medicine Pavilion, to prevent them from courting death.
