That why in the place fill with mountains, a person like official Xie who is in golden core stage is stationed as ruling lord as well as general commander of the eastern province.

Official Xie who is enjoying the tea slowly look up at the group of young people

"I though this year ceremony, Kielin sect is coming."

The group of people from southern sect look each other with unease and "This is this is, friends of Kielin sect wanted to change our mission so our southern sect come to eastern part instead of them. I hope lord officials don't take personally." The group leader of group give big ceremony at lord Xie and replied.

Lord Xie smile without simile in his eyes and reply

"How can this small official take personally at big sect like Kulin Sect. Don't dare don't dare.." he replied with scorn.

"Since, you have been travelling from central plain for a while, please rest at our guest rooms. I will prepare to let the whole province about the opening of ceremony. After all preparations i will trouble you guy."

Group of young cultivators hurriedly reply "no trouble no trouble lord."

Soon after the group of young people come out , a man who is hiding back of curtain come into view of lord XIe

"My lord i think we need to report the incident to emperor. The KieLin Sect is getting out of hand."

Lord Xie who is trimming his small bonsai tree,

"Let wait for a while of how the northern lord reaction to KieLin Sect."

"The storm is getting stronger and stronger. Look like upper them can't stand the temptation."
