Xiao Qiang responded seriously, "So what?"
Lord Yue continued to speak, "Don't you find it strange that cultivators here seem far more powerful than those elsewhere?"
Xiao Qiang nodded, "And so what?"
Lord Yue fell into thought. After a moment, he slowly said, "Many years ago, many Huaxia cultivators finally discovered how to open this Dragon Vein. They forced their way into it. Unexpectedly, a man known as the Martial King suddenly attacked and defeated them all. Not only that, but he allied himself with the Mo Family to lock the entrance to the Dragon Vein with ninety-nine Netherworld Chains, barring cultivators from entering."
The Martial King, again?
Xiao Qiang appeared a little uneasy. On his first night in Yun City, he had heard the legend of the Martial King. Mere possession of a Martial King token could cause many innate martial artists to breach their commitments.
He had thought the Martial King was a powerful figure, but he had not expected such a story.
