Chapter 1057: Nanfeng Jiyue

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Outside the ancestral lands of the Southern Phoenix Clan, there were several elders of the clan who appeared there. When Qin Wentian arrived, Nanfeng Yunxi was like the moon surrounded by many stars, in the center of the crowd. Nearest to her was a pair of husband and wife. The man exuded imposingness that had a trace of gentleness; while the woman was exquisite and graceful, extremely beautiful and looked like an older sister of Nanfeng Yunxi. Despite so, this woman was her mother.

"Haha Yunxi, well done." An old man laughed. This old man was someone on the grandfather-level of Nanfeng Yunxi’s faction.

Since Nanfeng Yunxi was able to become the Holy Successor, she basically gained the qualifications to fight for the position of the Southern Phoenix Matriarch in the future. She would be heavily nurtured by the Southern Phoenix Clan and they would naturally be extremely happy.

"Her cultivation base actually advanced and she is now at the second-level of immortal foundation." Qin Wentian stared at Nanfeng Yunxi in the crowd. Right now, Nanfeng Yunxi’s aura changed, it had an additional streak of holiness to it.

On the immortal foundation path, cultivation was extremely difficult. One had to slowly climb up step-by-step and it was very tough for one to increase their cultivation level within a short time. Only some inheritances from ancient great clans might be able to grant you instant enlightenment, elevating you to the next level when you are at a certain level of cultivation. Becoming the Holy Successor would grant you a single chance at this. Given that the Phoenix Ancestor personally transferred energy into you, your strength would naturally rise.

Other than this, for these ancient great clans, the core members had unlimited resources and many secret arts to cultivate from. The speed of their cultivation would naturally be faster compared to cultivators that had to grope about, figuring things out for themselves. Hence, being born in such a clan was like mortals being born with a silver spoon in their mouths. They had an inherent advantage from birth.

Nanfeng Yunxi nodded warmly to the people of her faction. After which, she turned her gaze onto Qin Wentian and smiled at him. Right now in front of Qin Wentian, she no longer had that cold arrogant personality she had when in the City of Ancient Emperors. She was smiling and had a gentleness in her eyes, exuding a different kind of beauty.

Nanfeng Yunxi walked towards Qin Wentian and laughed, "Thank you for helping me."

"You are someone who fought side by side with me in several death battles when in the City of Ancient Emperors. Is thanks even necessary between us?" Qin Wentian smiled.

"Qin Wentian, to you, this might not count for everything. But to Yunxi, she being able to become the Holy Successor is an extremely important event in her life. Us husband and wife truly have to thank you for your help." Behind Nanfeng Yunxi, her parents smiled and nodded thankfully to Qin Wentian.

"He is right. Qin Wentian if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can feel free to look for us." Nanfeng Yunxi’s mother also smiled. Qin Wentian nodded, "Okay, this junior will humbly accept the gratitude of seniors."

"You can just refer to us as aunty and uncle, there’s no need to call us seniors." Nanfeng Yunxi’s father laughed.

"Uncle, aunty." Qin Wentian was also a straightforward man, he wouldn’t be bothered over the small details. He and Nanfeng Yunxi were friends, there was nothing wrong in referring to her parents as such.

"Yunxi, how about we hold a celebration for you?" An elder spoke. However, Nanfeng Yunxi smiled as she shook her head. "I’ve only recently become the Holy Successor and my cultivation base is still too low. The path ahead is still very long, all elders, please do not put me at too high a pedestal or it would be disastrous if I became arrogant and complacent."

"Yunxi is right, the elders mustn’t dote on her overly much. If she wants to become the next Matriarch, she still has a very long way to go." Nanfeng Yunxi’s father nodded, speaking bluntly about the fact of becoming the next Southern Phoenix Matriarch. This wasn’t a taboo subject in the Southern Phoenix Clan. If one is a Holy Successor, they would be qualified to inherit the Southern Phoenix Matriarch’s position. This was something that could be openly said and was also a form of encouragement to the Holy Successors.

"You all exaggerate too much. But since this is Yunxi’s intent, we shall comply and not hold the celebration. Yunxi, your new residence is already prepared, we will head to the Jiyue Palace and formally change its name to the Yunxi Palace. In the future, that place shall be your residence and the holy maidens of this generation will become your Dao Protectors, becoming your most able assistants in the future. Remember not to mistreat them in the future." An old man spoke, his words causing Nanfeng Yunxi to nod seriously. She understood that many things changed the moment she became the Holy Successor.

Every hundred years, thirty-six holy maidens would fight for the position of Holy Successor but once the Holy Successor was chosen, the other holy maidens would become her Dao Protectors, growing together with her, and would be her important assistants in the future.

For the current Southern Phoenix Matriarch, her dao protectors now were all exceedingly powerful, becoming the sharpest weapons under her command.

Qin Wentian felt taken aback when he heard this. All the holy maidens would become the dao protectors for Nanfeng Yunxi? Was this how important the position of Holy Successor was?

"Jiyue Palace," Nanfeng Yunxi murmured, her gaze grew somewhat misty.

"Nanfeng Jiyue is a legendary character of our Southern Phoenix Clan. Yunxi, this is the anticipation we have for you. Do not disappoint the clan." The old man solemnly stated. Nanfeng Yunxi’s expression turned solemn as well as she nodded. This name, Nanfeng Jiyue, was incomparably glorious in their clan. In fact, her fame spread over the entire immortal realms.

"Let’s go." The old man spoke as everyone continued on. Nanfeng Yunxi smiled at Qin Wentian, "Come along with us."

"Okay, I also wish to see how impressive the Holy Successor is." Qin Wentian joked, causing Nanfeng Yunxi to roll her eyes at him.

"Who is Nanfeng Jiyue?" Qin Wentian transmitted his voice and asked Nanfeng Yunxi. He was quite curious about this name.

"Nanfeng Jiyue is a legendary character of our clan. She was a Holy Successor and had done many earth-shaking events that shook the immortal realms during her era. She was like the sun in the sky, and there weren’t many who could stand equally against her. However, there was once where my Southern Phoenix Clan encountered a calamity. A devil lord from the Myriad Devil Island lusted after our beauty and said that he was going to kidnap the Matriarch Southern Phoenix and holy maidens back to the Myriad Devil Island. This devil lord was extremely infamous but had great clout and influence, as well as overwhelming strength. He gathered the strength of the devil practitioners and warred against the Southern Phoenix Clan, kidnapping many holy maidens that were roaming the immortal realms."

"Nanfeng Jiyue initiated the charge, killing her way into the Myriad Devil Island. She used some heaven-defying methods to send those kidnapped holy maidens out from the Myriad Devil Island while defending against many supreme powers with just her strength alone. The Myriad Devil Island was a place where immortal emperors were forbidden to enter. When Nanfeng Jiyue charged in alone, she was surrounded on all sides but even so, she still managed to slaughter the devil lord responsible and kill many devil emperors before she died in the Myriad Devil Island."

Qin Wentian’s expression also turned solemn when he heard what Nanfeng Yunxi said. A female figure exuding magnificence through the generations appeared in his mind, killing her way into the nest of devils.

"Was it worth it for her to kill her way into the Myriad Devil Island? Wasn’t she a little too impulsive?" Qin Wentian sighed.

"Sometimes, for such characters, they did things because they felt they simply had to do it. At that time, my Southern Phoenix Clan was under the scrutiny of the entire immortal realms. How great a humiliation we had to suffer due to the abduction of our holy maidens? Even if Nanfeng Jiyue didn’t step out, our Southern Phoenix Clan would have taken actions regardless. However, how imposing was she? She didn’t wait for reinforcements and killed her way into the Myriad Devil Island under a fit of anger. And although she died in there, her actions shocked the entire immortal realms. From then on, the devil lords in the Myriad Devil Island no longer tried to provoke our Southern Phoenix Clan."

Nanfeng Yunxi was somewhat in a daze, thinking of the legendary Holy Successor Nanfeng Jiyue. Qin Wentian also felt respect in his heart for this legendary character. Just like what Nanfeng Yunxi said, characters like this knew they had to do some things regardless of whatever. Wasn’t he in the same situation before as well? This was the strength of character all supreme heaven chosen had!

"Sadly, we are unable to personally witness her splendor." Qin Wentian lamented. He faintly understood the words of the Phoenix Ancestor. In these vast immortal realms, even great ancient clans could be in danger.

"It is truly a pity. Back then everyone in our Southern Phoenix Clan believed that if Nanfeng Jiyue hadn’t died then, she might very well have been the Southern Phoenix Matriarch of the next generation." Nanfeng Yunxi also sighed. As they spoke, they arrived at a majestic ancient building. Outside this building, there was a statue of a female exuding magnificence through the generations, a supreme heaven chosen, Nanfeng Jiyue. The Southern Phoenix Clan erected a statue and monument for her.

Everyone descended onto the ground, bowing to the statue of Nanfeng Jixue. Even those of the elder generations did so to show their respect.

Qin Wentian could sense the respect and reverence the people of the Southern Phoenix Clan had towards this ancient character. Qin Wentian similarly stood before the statue and gave a deep bow, paying his respect.

"I have a request. Jiyue Palace will remained named as that, let’s not change it to Yunxi Palace." Nanfeng Yunxi spoke. Usually when a new Holy Successor moved in, the ancient Palace would change its name to match with that of the Holy Successor.

"Fine." An elder of the Southern Phoenix Clan decisively agreed with no hesitation. Since Nanfeng Yunxi could bring this up with no hesitation, he only felt gratitude in his heart.

"Let’s enter." Nanfeng Yunxi stepped towards the ancient Palace, feeling boundless anticipation in her heart. She also hoped that one day, she might be as glorious as Nanfeng Jiyue, becoming a Holy Successor respected by everyone.

The Jiyue Palace was very vast, but its majesticness didn’t lose any elegance and grace. Everyone slowly walked forward, Nanfeng Yunxi stepped up a high platform while the others stood before the platform and looked up at her. Although the Southern Phoenix Clan rejected the celebration, some basic ceremony formalities still had to be carried out.

"Sir Qin, in the future please take care of us." Nanfeng Shengge smiled as she stood beside Qin Wentian. After that, she slowly stepped out, moving up the platform. Not only her, the other holy maidens did so as well, appearing around Nanfeng Yunxi with her at the center. Among them, the arrogant Nanfeng Aoxue was also included.

From now on, they would reside in the Jiyue Palace together with Nanfeng Yunxi. No matter if they were willing or not, they had to obey her authority. This was the rule set by the Southern Phoenix Clan. If they are reluctant to follow her, they can try to cultivate faster and be forever a level higher than Nanfeng Yunxi. Similarly, their existences would also spur Nanfeng Yunxi on, so that she wouldn’t relax and fall behind as she is the Holy Successor.

Other than the holy maidens, some other powerful experts also appeared on the platform, including immortal kings. They were specially selected from within the clan and their responsibilities were to protect the Jiyue Palace and guard Nanfeng Yunxi.

From now on, Nanfeng Yunxi would be the new master of the Jiyue Palace and all thirty-five holy maidens would be her dao protectors.

She is now the Holy Successor, a successor of the female matriarch.

Qin Wentian stared at the platform. At this instant, Nanfeng Yunxi seemed extremely regal. A radiant smile appeared on his face as he was filled with joy at Nanfeng Yunxi’s success. No wonder all the holy maidens wanted the position of Holy Successor so much. This was glory, status and authority. It was also an opening step to a grand future!
