shed red, and he couldn't say a word. Only then did he realize how ridiculous his previous thoughts had been.He's just a son-in-law, living on some petty cash every day. Not to mention himself, even..."Xiao Fan, you were a bit impulsive this time."

"Those people have just left, and An Daoquan quickly said: “They were from Yunchia Mountain. You didn't only break the legs of these two people, but also slapped Yunchia Mountain in the face. In the future, you will probably face endless retaliation."

"Grandpa, these guys are so despicable, didn't you see It's already merciful that we didn't kill them!"

Thinking back on Feng Xiaokang's previous actions, Si Tu Dian Mo was still filled with indignation. If she weren't inconvenienced from acting herself, she would have definitely killed these two people before her.

Ando Quan said anxiously, "That's the reason, but that's a hidden sect, Yunxia Mountain is powerful, we can't afford to provoke them now."

Ye Bufan knew this old man meant well and was only thinking of himself. He smiled and said, "Old Master, you don't have to take it too seriously. It's just Yunxia Mountain, nothing special."

"Nothing special Xiaofan, you're too young to know the power of hidden sects."

Andao was speechless for a moment. In all these years, he had never heard anyone speak of the hidden sect in this way, nor dare to speak of Yunxia Mountain like this.

Si Tu Changkong said: "Lao An, I think Xiao Fan did the right thing. A real man would rather die standing up than live on his knees. Yunxia Mountain was too arrogant and bullying, so teaching them a lesson is only right."

Andao sighed, but he didn't say much more. Things had come to this point, regret was useless now, the most urgent thing was still to discuss how to solve the current predicament.

Seeing his worried expression, Situ Changkong said again, "Lao An, you don't have to worry too much. Although Yunxia Mountain is powerful, we still have Tiangong in China, right"

"With those powerful cultivators from the Heavenly Palace around, I don't believe they could possibly cause any more trouble!"

"Old friend, you're right, I completely forgot about this."

Hearing what Situ Changkong said, An Daoquan's anxious expression eased considerably.

"Ye Bufan asked in some surprise, 'Senior Situ, what is the Heavenly Palace' "

He had been in the Imperial Capital for so many years and controlled the upper world, but this was the first time he had heard of an organization called Tian Gong.

“The sky was once a secret of our Chinese civilization, but now that you are the Fourth Elder of the Xuan Yuan Pavilion, there is no harm in telling you.”

Sima Changkong began to speak: "In China, everyone knows the special departments of Xuanyuan Pavilion and the Special Affairs Bureau, but they don't know that there is a top-level institution above them, one level higher than our two families, which is the Heavenly Palace."

"Since that's the case, why haven't I ever heard of it before What is the Heavenly Palace's responsibility" Ye Bufan asked with great interest.

You haven't heard of it because ordinary things are too trivial to warrant the attention of the celestial palace. The celestial palace exists primarily as a deterrent in China.

"Andaoquan took over the conversation and began to speak, "The highest position in Tiangong is the Palace Master. Below him are two Deputy Palace Masters, and there are also eight Elder Masters."

These people came from various schools and sects of China, they were undoubtedly super strong, the Eight Elders were already at the martial saint level.

Legend has it that the two deputy palace masters even reached the imperial realm. As for the Palace Master, no one has ever seen him make a move. However, one thing is certain, he must be unfathomable, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to deter the entire Heavenly Palace and even the whole of China.

Emperor Realm expert

Hearing this, Ye Bufan couldn't help but feel a little touched. The Chinese martial arts tradition has been passed down for thousands of years. He had initially wondered why he hadn't met any Emperor Realm experts Even Martial Saints were rare, it turned out they were all hiding from the world.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. The West has Realm Lords, yet they haven't dared to set foot in the East for so many years. This alone shows that there are absolute powerhouses in the East capable of deterring them.

Andaoquan continued, "The Heavenly Palace holds the utmost status in China. Its main responsibilities are two-fold."

To the outside world, intimidate and deter powerful individuals from other countries so that they will not dare to attack China.

Internally, it serves to deter those hidden sects, preventing them from entering the mortal world at will and disrupting the order of worldly affairs.

Sithu Changkong frowned: "Logically speaking, for so many years the secluded sects have been peaceful and undisturbed, why did Yunxia Mountain suddenly enter the world this time Don't they fear the strong from the Heavenly Palace"

"I don't know," Ando shook his head. "I'm afraid only the people on Yunxiashan would know for sure."

Ye Bufan asked, "What's the deal with hidden sects"

Sistru Changkong said: "Regarding the matter of hidden sects, [infinite] it has to be traced back a hundred years ago."

Back then, when China faced an unprecedented catastrophe, with the danger of national subjugation and extinction looming, martial artists throughout the land rose to the occasion, determined to defend their homeland and people.

These people were from renowned sects and influential families, as well as solitary cultivators from the Jianghu. Regardless of their origins, they all played a crucial role in this war.

Under unity, the Chinese nation ultimately achieved victory and established the country we have today.

These martial artists have become a major hidden danger for the state. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "martial arts should not be used to break the law," and these individuals, with their powerful cultivation bases, are beyond the control of ordinary people.

Especially the strong ones from the Holy Order, they are not afraid of bullets, but all levels of government administrators are completely helpless.

There are some evil sects and wandering cultivators who act recklessly, doing whatever they want. They steal flowers and willows, burn, kill, loot, and do everything imaginable.

Even those prestigious sects that could restrain their disciples would become unscrupulous when it came to cultivation resources.

These factors, when combined together, plunged the promising situation that had just been established into chaos. This is clearly not what the Taizu wanted to see.

In this situation, our Chinese nation established a special organization called the Heavenly Palace to suppress various schools and sects, maintaining order in China.

Although Si Tu Dian Mo was a member of the Xuan Yuan Pavilion, he had never heard of such a secret before and asked in doubt: "Is it possible for just one organization to deter all the gangs in the Jianghu"

"Normally, that wouldn't be possible, but at the time, the Heavenly Palace was presided over by Wei Wuya, a brilliant figure of his generation."

First, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Imperial Realm, and he was widely recognized as the number one powerhouse in China.

Furthermore, Lao Wei himself was highly capable and did not fight alone. He gathered those righteous sects dedicated to upholding the reputation of China, forming alliances and defeating enemies in quick succession, thus rapidly stabilizing the situation in the martial world.

In the end, the strongest individuals from each school and sect gathered together and reached a final agreement. That was for the three powerful mountains and six sects to completely withdraw from the world and become hidden sects.

Even though there are still some scattered strong individuals, they fear the pressure from the Heavenly Palace and dare not come out to do evil at will.

As for martial artists below the Saint rank, there is no need for the Heavenly Palace to intervene at all. Conventional hot weapons can pose a deadly threat to them, so their impact is not significant.

This ultimately led to the good situation we have today.

"Aha! That makes sense!"

Ye Bufan only then suddenly realized, no wonder even a small place like the Great Dog Kingdom had so many Martial Saints, while in Hua Xia Heaven, there were many Heaven Rank experts, but Saint Rank experts were rare to see.

The original source is right here. There are many powerful individuals, but they hide from the world out of fear of the celestial palace's might.

"Grandfather," asked Si Tu Dian Mo, "who is the current Heavenly Palace master Is it still the brilliant and capable Wei Wuya"r, there will still be people from the Kunlun Immortal Realm coming over for a while. It is very likely that masters will come after them. You should still hide with your clan and return here after a...
