In the Autonomous Region, the people selected during the Heavenly Selection were now getting ready to enter the factions that they chose to enter respectively. However, before this selection even happened, there was one woman who secretly ruled over the Autonomous Region for the past years, during the time when that young man she admired so much was away. 

"How is it? Did you find the whereabouts of His Highness?" Xia Hua asked the leader of the Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order. 

Previously, it was Lu Han who brought her with him, just because she accepted his offer to serve under the order. He was, at first, excited about getting another strong subordinate for his father. Initially, Xia Hua's father was not inclined to letting her go to a tiger's den. Seeing his daughter's determination, however, made him shut his mouth up and instead went with the flow. 

On the other hand, Lu Han wasn't aware and so was her father—that Xia Hua wasn't actually there to serve under someone's rule. She was there to fight for the throne in the Autonomous Region. Thus, before the Heavenly Selection even happened that time, she rushed and defeated the leader of the order and made him his subordinate instead. 

With that being said, no one knew that the order had changed leaders. Only her and the leader himself.

She did not want the world to know about her affiliation with the order. She was only here to wait for him. If he arrived in the Autonomous Region at this time or any time, she would immediately pass the throne to him. She was all doing this for him, as a repayment for everything he had done for them. If it weren't for that man, they wouldn't be alive and kicking right now. 

She and her father were very grateful for him. Repaying him by giving people for him to rule was the only thing she could repay. If he wanted to, she could've already repaid him with her body, but it seemed like Yang Lujia was very indifferent of any secular emotions, let alone sexual desires. 

"Deputy Chief Justice, we haven't heard of the news regarding the person you're looking for. However, there have been reports about a man causing destructive and great commotions in the Second Region. However, as for now, he already disappeared from there, according to our investigations," the previous leader of the order replied. 

Xia Hua renamed the Demon-Subduing Autonomous Order to "Origin Court". This was the name that man always wanted to name. However, on the surface, the name of this organization was still called the Hall of Commerce. Regardless, it was already altered when the people did not even know its real hidden name, the order. 

"Continue with your investigations. As for the other factions that are trying to target the organization, leave them to me. I don't have anything to do anyway other than conquer them for the man I am waiting for…"

The leader was stumped when he heard that this extremely beautiful young lady was waiting for a man. What kind of man would deserve her? Even her own would not deserve her beauty. And for fuck's sake, she was a peak Saint Emperor—who could he rely on other than this beauty?

"Yes, Deputy Chief Justice."

"Until then, do not communicate with me unless you have information about his whereabouts," Xia Hua ordered as she disappeared. 

The previous leader did not even sweat when she was here. After all, who would sweat over someone's presence who was literally surrounded by coldness that even he might freeze if she stayed any longer. 

PHEW!

He wiped his forehead and quickly motioned to his subordinates to keep moving and continue with their search for the man's whereabouts. Moreover, thinking about this young woman who his son had brought along with, he knew that the shift of power in the Autonomous Region, or even the four regions, would change. She was that tip that would break the balance among the present powers. 

Meanwhile, Xia Hua was above the clouds, looking at the sky's horizon and muttered the words softly, "Where are you?"

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining your Fifth Disciple, Kun Peng! Rewards: Ruler Beast Scripture, Peerless Immortal Cane (Heaven-Ranked Divine Artifact), and 10,000 Bottles of Heaven-Ranked Elixir; One Chance to Draw from Wheel of Fate]

'Ruler Beast Scripture, Peerless Immortal Cane… these names are somewhat formidable-sounding. I hope it can help this child grow up into someone like Long Guang who had already let go of his obsessions regarding how his whole race was slaughtered by another,' Yang Lujia thought as he looked at the little girl dotingly. 

He then reached out to her head and gave her a pat. After that, he searched for a small robe from his inventory if he had one. Fortunately, he found one for little girls and this one was also a divine artifact. Not anyone could just break its defense. This was one of the products he was able to forge during this lifetime. 

'By any sense, is this little girl somewhat a beast? Why did the system give me this Ruler Beast Scripture otherwise?' he contemplated and decided thinking against it for the meantime as he had other things to attend to like doting on his new disciple. 

Even Sheng Ao wouldn't be able to receive this kind of treatment from him. After all, he was already quite old for Yang Lujia to dote, but that didn't mean he would lack giving them what they wanted and help them with their troubles. After all, he came here at the Dragon Emperor Palace, precisely for finding the culprit behind Sheng Ao's situation. 

Yang Lujia lifted the little girl after he dressed her with the robe she gave her. With that, he used his own qi to wash away all the dirt on her face. Now, she looked incredibly stunning for even a beast. He was amused. 

"Ah! Master! I almost forgot about it! My uncle… I mean, the Dragon Emperor…" Long Guang recalled and felt somewhat uncomfortable. 

"I know."
