The moment the golden light covered Lan Mao City, the entire city fell into chaos.
A few moments ago, the streets were filled with people enjoying the evening.
But now...
Everyone was looking toward the sky with fear and confusion.
The merchants who were still selling their goods quickly packed everything and moved away.
The ordinary citizens gathered together, trying to understand what was happening.
"Is this some kind of heavenly disaster?"
"Why did such a strange phenomenon appear in Lan Mao City?"
"No one knows..."
Even the cultivators who had experienced countless battles had serious expressions on their faces.
Because the pressure coming from the golden door was something they had never felt before.
At the center of Lan Mao City...
The Jiang Family also noticed the situation immediately.
As the family responsible for protecting Lan Mao City, they could not ignore such a huge disturbance.
"Send people to protect the citizens."
"Move the weaker disciples away from the area."
"Nobody is allowed to approach the golden light without permission."
Orders were quickly given.
The Jiang Family disciples immediately started taking action.
Although everyone was curious about the golden door...
They knew their first responsibility was the safety of the city.
Because this was not only an opportunity.
It could also be a disaster.
Among the Jiang Family members who were moving out...
Two young men appeared.
One of them had a calm and serious expression.
The other looked slightly confused, as if he had just woken up from a long sleep.
The serious-looking young man glanced at him.
"Jiang Yisheng."
"What?"
"Do you even know what is happening right now?"
Jiang Yisheng looked around.
The shaking ground.
The frightened people.
The strange golden light in the sky.
After a moment, he answered honestly.
"...Not really."
Jiang Shaobai looked at him silently.
For a few seconds, he did not know what to say.
"You just woke up, didn't you?"
Jiang Yisheng nodded.
"I was resting."
"Resting?"
Jiang Shaobai almost laughed from anger.
"The entire city is shaking, the sky has changed, and an unknown object has appeared above us."
"And you were still sleeping?"
Jiang Yisheng touched his nose awkwardly.
"I was tired."
Jiang Shaobai looked at the sky and sighed.
"Sometimes I really wonder how you survive until now."
Although his words sounded annoyed...
The people around them knew that Jiang Shaobai was actually worried about his younger brother.
As they continued moving with the Jiang Family members...
Jiang Yisheng suddenly stopped.
His eyes looked toward another direction.
Among the countless people gathered in the city...
He saw a familiar figure.
A girl standing under the golden light.
For a moment...
His expression changed.
The noisy surroundings seemed to disappear.
"Luo Qiki..."
He unconsciously spoke her name.
Jiang Shaobai noticed his reaction.
He followed his gaze and immediately understood.
A helpless expression appeared on his face.
'Of course...'
'At a time like this, the first thing he notices is still a girl.'
However, this time Jiang Shaobai did not stop him.
Because even he understood...
In this chaotic situation, meeting someone familiar was also a relief.
But before Jiang Yisheng could move forward...
The golden light above the sky suddenly became brighter.
Everyone's attention once again returned to the mysterious door.
The unknown existence floating above Lan Mao City...
Was waiting for everyone to discover its secret .
The golden door continued floating above Lan Mao City.
The mysterious light covered the entire sky, making the night look like daytime.
Everyone was still trying to understand what had appeared.
Among the crowd...
Jiang Yisheng finally reached Luo Qiki.
For a moment, he did not know what to say.
After all, the situation around them was too strange.
The entire city was facing an unknown event, yet seeing a familiar person here made him feel relieved.
"You are here too."
Luo Qiki looked at him and smiled slightly.
"Yes."
"I came to Lan Mao City for some matters."
Jiang Yisheng looked around.
"You came alone?"
Luo Qiki nodded.
"I am capable of taking care of myself."
Hearing her answer, Jiang Yisheng smiled helplessly.
He knew Luo Qiki was not an ordinary person.
Even though she looked young, her strength was something many people could not compare with.
Before he could say anything else...
A powerful aura suddenly descended.
The atmosphere around Lan Mao City became heavy.
All the cultivators immediately became serious.
A figure appeared above the Jiang Family members.
The elders and disciples immediately bowed.
"Grand Elder."
The person who appeared was one of the highest authorities of the Jiang Family.
He did not speak.
His eyes were completely focused on the golden door.
For a long time...
He remained silent.
The more he looked at the door, the more serious his expression became.
The patterns on the door.
The strange spiritual aura.
The ancient feeling it released.
Everything seemed familiar.
Suddenly...
An old memory appeared in his mind.
Many years ago, inside the Jiang Family's ancient library...
He had once read a damaged history record.
That book mentioned a mysterious power from the ancient era.
A cultivation method that was different from the current world.
A path called—
Yin-Yang Art.
According to the records...
Those who mastered Yin-Yang Art could absorb the balance between heaven and earth, refine their bodies, strengthen their souls, and walk a path beyond ordinary cultivation.
However...
The records were incomplete.
Nobody knew the true method of cultivation.
Nobody knew where that inheritance disappeared.
And now...
Looking at the golden door in front of him...
The Grand Elder felt that this ancient legend might be connected to it.
"Could it be..."
"The legend from the ancient era..."
His eyes became deeper.
He wanted to know what was behind that door.
What kind of inheritance existed inside?
But he also understood one thing.
Unknown opportunities always came with unknown dangers.
He turned around and gave an order.
"All Jiang Family disciples, listen carefully."
"Protect the citizens first."
"Nobody is allowed to approach the golden door without my permission."
The disciples immediately responded.
"Yes, Grand Elder!"
The Jiang Family began surrounding the area.
They were not only protecting the city.
They were also controlling the situation.
Because this was Lan Mao City.
And the Jiang Family was responsible for everything that happened here .
