Jiang Luoxing's progress was actually very fast, and if compared with the previous periods, he could have been first in all of them.
It was just unfortunate that he was born in the 121st period.
Mu Yuan was still happy for him.
"Congratulations, rember to treat us, and if you don't mind, I'll bring the entire regint over to celebrate with you,"
Jiang Luoxing originally wanted to say no problem, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he choked on his words.
He couldn't afford it, he just couldn't!
He was no longer the second generation lord Jiang soone, but a poor little city lord who owed a huge debt.
Being a lord was not easy.
He coughed and said, "Yuan Ju, there have been lord gatherings happening in Xuan Du these days, with either representatives or powerful lords coming and going, are you coming?"
The location of the gathering he ntioned was in the west suburbs.
But the gathering...
"It's not so kind of banquet, is it?"
Although eating and drinking were activities Duo Lai would enjoy, he might not be able to eat and drink peacefully at a banquet.
"How could it be?" Jiang Luoxing said, "Although there indeed are gatherings for networking and pulling strings, I've heard of one or two, but this one isn't, it's more like a loose assembly."
"Initially, this assembly was just a place for the representatives of lords to co together to exchange and trade items, given that we lords co from all corners of the world and there are quite a few of us, it's much easier to exchange treasures than to find buyers and sellers in public secret realms."
"Later, the assembly expanded continuously, with everyone exchanging materials and sharing cultivation experiences, which was quite a nice thing."
Mu Yuan nodded in agreent.
It was true indeed.
After all, such a gathering of many powerful lords was an opportunity that ca once in a thousand years.
...
After settling down his elite forces and obtaining supplies for the next few days, Mu Yuan took Isloa, Duo Lai, Seventeen, as well as the two young generals Deng Long and Wang Jian, to the gathering place.
The gathering place was an outdoor martial arts field with tents, tables, and chairs set up on one side, and simple drinks and fruits available.
Far away, at the end of the martial arts field, a large billboard was scrolling with information.
"Lord of Ba Long desires to purchase 'Red Dragon Remains', contact Lord of Ba Long at C Zone No. 22, price negotiable."
"Lord of the Wooden Fish City sells 'Excellence Three-star Remnant Soul' 'Mountain Giant' & 'Black Dragon Iron Guard', interested parties ssage privately."
"Lord Linglong seeks to purchase 'Strength System' Excellence Three-star level troops."
"Lord Wuji invites swordsn to spar and fight."
"White Shark Lord..."
Mu Yuan glanced at it and realized many of the lords listed were those he knew.
As 'Lord Xiaodeng', whose establishnt had only been a little over a year, his network couldn't be considered wide. He could only once again lant how small the circle of lords was.
"It seems we too could take this opportunity to exchange for so treasures we need and trade or sell off so high-value items we can't use."

His Tianyuan Territory had obtained many spoils of war.
And the Elf Secret Realm of the Lord of Han Yue City was after all not large enough; it had been drained by him long ago, making it hard for him to find suitable buyers.
He looked at Isloa.
Isloa understood and said, "I'll have my main body tally everything up imdiately."
That ant Lord Shepherd didn't have to worry himself.
At the gathering place, lords were grouped in threes and fives, much like in previous festivals. Mu Yuan quickly found Jiang Luoxing and Liu Miumiu.
By Liu Miumiu's side, there were three awakened division generals.
One of them was dressed in a deep blue dress, yet upon closer inspection, it could be seen that her dress and body were both sculpted from condensed water.
A Spring Spirit System powerhouse, at the Fourth-order Leader Level.
And moreover...
"This is actually an Epic one."
Mu Yuan was certain.
Liu Miumiu, at such a young age, already possessed an Epic General, leaving countless older lords behind.
"But that's how it is, everyone has their own fortune; an Epic is nothing unusual."
Jiang Luoxing brought even more people, seemingly a whole team.
Most of them were not of military kind but were professionals and clerks he had recruited, who were continuously compiling information from the large billboard.
They were very busy.
Many lords ca with several logistic clerks, and only a few, like him, arrived with just a few division generals, which clearly showed their lack of experience.
But no matter, with Isloa by his side, he had enough.
Liu Miumiu was a lord without experience or manpower; she simply sprawled out on the table like a salted fish.

In the distance, a burly figure approached.
"Tianyuan, you really ca."
It was the Lord of Ba Long and Lord Wuji.
Lord of Ba Long said, "My Chiyan Dragon Descendant has already stepped into the Legendary Realm. I, too, will soon break through, and the Molten Steel Dragon of my territory... It won't be long before my Ba Long Territory will have three legends. How's that, not too slow, right?"
"As for Brother Wuji? He doesn't have any outstanding powerhouses under him, but Brother Wuji himself is formidable. It took him rely two to three months to step into the Legendary Realm, and he already has achievents like slaying three Legendary Realm creatures. I can't compare to that."
Not far away, Jiang Luoxing drew in a breath of cold air.
They were all young, and of course, he knew both the Lord of Ba Long and Lord Wuji; he even had their contact details.
But he truly hadn't anticipated that the Lord of Ba Long had beco so strong, on the verge of boasting three legends in his domain.
And Lord Wuji had an impressive record, having already slain three Legendary creatures.
Jiang Luoxing suddenly felt that he couldn't possibly be ranked among the last few of the representing lords.
Lord of Ba Long spoke without any sign of smugness.
After all, he was quite aware that Tianyuan was no weaker than himself. Tianyuan even possessed a legendary powerhouse who had broken through the ranks, being in the top ten of the Dragon Gate Ranking.
This was already more formidable than Brother Wuji.
"However, compared to many of the bigwigs present, we are still just juniors who need to keep striving."
As Lord of Ba Long spoke, he gestured with his chin towards a distant figure.
"See that dude wearing slippers over there?"
Jiang Luoxing asked, "Who is that?"
He looked like a very ordinary older brother.
There were plenty of ordinary people present.
The entourage of lords, locals from Xuan Du who had mixed in; after all, this wasn't so sort of private gathering.
Mu Yuan said, "He is a legendary figure."
Lord of Ba Long looked at him in surprise, "Correct, this unassuming old guy is the Lord of Yongmian. He is a legendary powerhouse himself, and he has seven legends under him, known as the Seven Divine Generals of Yongmian, who are quite famous in our Tai Xuan as well."
A lord with eight legends in his domain!
Jiang Luoxing said, "I have indeed heard of the feats of the Seven Divine Generals of Yongmian."
Lord of Ba Long continued, "Now look at that one, the boss of the Baijin Group. His domain boasts six legends, and the entire Baijin Group can muster up to sixteen legendary figures."
That ans the Boss Baijin can summon more than a dozen legends at once.
Lord of Ba Long then successively introduced several other individuals.
"Lord Yong'an, the founder of the Yong'an Escort Bureau whose business even extends outside of Tai Xuan, has seven legendary powerhouses under his command, and they all have illustrious records."
"Lord Longshe, he has four Great Dragon Generals and five Great Heavenly Snake Generals, making him a truly deserved lord of ten legends!"
"White Shark Lord... the boss of the White Shark Group, you must have heard of him to so extent. Just within his direct lineage, there are more than a dozen legendary figures, and the entire White Shark Group has nurous more."
Upon saying this, Lord of Ba Long also appeared sowhat wistful.
"I once thought that the Legendary Realm was the biggest barrier lying before us, formidable as a chasm difficult to cross. But only after crossing it did I realize that it was just the beginning."
"The world is vast, and Tai Xuan alone is ho to a multitude of legendary figures, not to ntion the imnsity of the entire Eternal World."
"I think we can only face ourselves with a humble but not self-depreciating heart, and steadily chase after those ahead of us."
They were far from strong enough.
But they were still young.
Mu Yuan nodded slightly, "Yes, compared to the vastness of the world, we are but tiny climbers. Besides, isn't the most important thing for survival in the Eternal World to understand ourselves? So..."
Even though he had already trained over a dozen legendary generals;
Even though he already possessed three legends;
Even though he had already slain over a hundred legendary creatures;
He still clearly recognized...
"I am just a feeble lord, after all."
