Ancient Hua Imperial City.
Night had fallen over this ancient capital, one of the ten great cities on the Ancient God Continent. Even at night, it remained brilliantly illuminated, as bright as day, with a steady flow of traffic and bustling crowds.
The Ancient Hua Palace, once heavily damaged by the siege of the Combat Saint King by the three Great Imperial Dynasties, had mostly been restored in these two years.
Palaces stood aplenty, pavilions towered, gradually reappearing in their former majestic grandeur.
The palace was teeming with experts, formidable warriors constantly guarding its safety.
But in the deepest part, the Central Treasure Pavilion was where the Heavenly King Ancestor of a great ancient empire secluded himself, and ordinarily, even the current Emperor would not dare to disturb the ancestor's retreat rashly.
