chapter 6287: centurial
âi've been told silence ancestor is from the same generation as our desolate ancestor.â mu hu said.
âfrom the same generation? so a member of the seven disciples?â orchidcore asked.
âno, silence ancestor was not a part of our sect then. the details are unclear but this was before our progenitorâs dao achievement. silence ancestor was there to protect her under the command of lord of life and death.â mu hu shook his head.
âdesolate ancestor needed a protector?â monk zhu was surprised to hear this.
in future generations, desolate ancestor represented invincibility. no one could contend against her except zhan sansheng.
âi wonder about the relationship between her and lord of life and death.â princess chen said quietly: âit seems the lord was already at the top before desolate ancestorâs ascension. the former took care of desolate ancestor and was repaid with her loyalty, right?â
âhmm...â mu hu said: âi donât know, iâm not sure if loyalty is the right word. the two should be the closest of friends.â
âmy ancestor told me about the lordâs supremacy since ancient times. progenitors and other masters followed her lead.â orchidcore murmured.
âthatâs beyond my knowledge. few can see her who resides in life and death heaven.â mu hu shook his head.
âsilence ancestor must have been mighty. itâs a shame i never heard of this great figure before.â orchidcore stared at silence peak and said.
ârumor has it silence ancestor only utilized defense, never offense.â mu hu said: âwhen she was around, everyone would immediately give up and retreat.â
âbecause she was too strong, or something else?â princess chen had never heard of this before.
âi donât know, the records are sparse.â mu hu shook his head.
âmutebane.â li qiye gave them the answer. [1]
âmutebane?â this term was foreign to the group.
âwait, i think thereâs something off.â orchidcore recalled something.
âwhat?â mu hu asked.
âyou talked about how exclusive imperial and ancestral domain are, but i think my clan members have visited to conduct business before.â orchidcore said.
âyou must be referring to centurial peak.â mu hu understood and said: âitâs over there, the most lively area when not counting myriad peaks domain.â
the group couldnât see the main peak either, only a mountain range with flourishing cities. the distance reduced visibility.
strangely enough, they saw that area having the presence of a mortal world due to how bustling it was.
âthat place looks like a mortal city.â princess chen said.
âcenturial city is the name, or centurial kingdom. itâs a special area, you need permission from the chen to enter.â mu hu said.
âis that tenth-gen chenâs branch?â monk zhu lowered his voice.
âyes, it is relatively large compared to the other main mountains. it might be the most prosperous too since the ancestors of the chen stay there.â mu hu said.
the group understood - centurial peak was one of the twelve main mountains. however, since the chen had so much influence there, it became their territory.
âcenturial, centurial, does this branch want to pass down their legacy a hundred times?â princess chen asked.
âit is currently the tenth generation. we donât count other descendants but when talking about the main branch, they might actually do it.â mu hu said.
âi can only imagine the power at that point, not just taking over your sect but becoming an immortal.â princess chen said.
the youths exchanged glances, finding logic in her remark.
