Inside the Royal Palace, Wang Wei's aura pressure soon disappeared after a few minutes. Princess Dong Lifen took a deep breath in order to calm herself down.
"Sir, this does not prove anything. You could just be a very talented person. Just a powerful cultivation does not prove that you are from the Higher Realm."
Wang Wei smiled after hearing this and said in a tranquil voice:
"You should be perfectly clear that a tiny little world like yours cannot cultivate a strong person as young as me."
"However, I can understand your skepticism. There are numerous ways that I could prove to you of my identity. I could show you things that you have never seen in your life, provide you with knowledge beyond your wildest comprehension. However, all of this will happen when you and I come to a certain level of trust."
"Additionally, your highness, you seemed to have misunderstood something. I did not show you my power just to prove my identity as a foreigner. I showed it to you to tell you that if I wanted to do something to you, there is absolutely nothing you could do to stop me."
"Even that little Divine Sea cultivator hiding in the corner could not prevent me from harming you if I wished to."
After hearing this, Princess Dong Lifen's heart skipped a beat. She has been exposed.
Few seconds later, a woman appeared from the corner and walked next to the princess.
She was middle-age, however, all her hair had turned white. Her eyes displayed the fact that she had gone through a lot of things in her life.
Wang Wei could tell that this middle-age woman was probably close to reaching the limit of 300 years old of Divine Sea Cultivators. However, she seemed to be able to maintain a somewhat youthful look.
The middle-age woman then bowed and said, "Yu Siyu has seen your excellency Wang Wei. I would also like to apologize on behalf of my disciple."
"Master!" exclaimed princess Dong Lifen.
"Quiet, Fen'er. Didn't you notice that despite all the commotions in here, the guards outside never reacted and barged inside."
Then, it suddenly dawned on Dong Lifen. With all the things that happened here, with the loyalty of her guards, they would immediately come to rescue her if they noticed something was wrong.
After reprimanding her disciples, Yu Siyu looked at Wang Wei and asked, "Your excellency, if you do not mind, why don't we chat over some freshly brewed tea?"
Wang Wei looked up and down at Yu Siyu, then nodded:
"It's true what the ancient said, 'wisdom comes through age'. I will gladly accept your invitation Miss Yu Siyu."
Yu Siyu did not mind the fact that a young man who could be her grandson called her miss. The cultivating world is quite hierarchical. Whoever has the higher strength is the Elder. As such, she said:
"Your excellency, you can just call me by name. No need for the formalities."
"Well then, I'll be presumptuous. And you guys can call me Young Master."
After a few pleasantries, Yu Siyu had her disciples brew some tea for the three of them. She clenches her teeth and takes out her most beloved and precious tea--one she acquired long ago in a Secret Realm after going through countless life and death situations.
Even princess Dong Lifen was very surprised when she saw her master take out her favorite tea. However, she did not say anything in front of Wang Wei and served the tea for all of them.
After tasting the tea, Wang Wei secretly gave it a medium to low level evaluation. However, he did not say anything out loud.
Upon seeing that Wang Wei did not react to her tea, Yu Siyu was somewhat discouraged.
'Could it be that even one of my most valuable things is nothing to this person? Or is there something wrong with the tea?' secretly thought Yu Siyu.
However, after looking at the intoxicated look on her disciple's face, she sighed and did not continue to think about such things.
"Young Master Wang Wei, since you are from a Higher Realm, there must be a reason for you to appear in our world. Is it possible to explain to us."
After finishing a sip of tea, Wang Wei answered, "A group of capable young generations of our world were chosen to come to this world for a trial."
"Group?" suddenly asked princess Dong Lifen. "As in, there are more than one people like you?"
"Yes, me and a few other people..."
"Are you and them in a group?"
"Not all, we are competitors. Of course not…"
"Are they all as powerful as you?"
Wang Wei took another sip of his tea, then he looked at Dong Lifen straight in the eyes. Suddenly, the princess felt a dread overcoming her every being, her every soul.
She tried to use her dream ability to counter this feeling, but it was of no avail. She felt that her soul was about to be destroyed.
When she was on the verge of breaking, Wang Wei removed his gaze from her and continued talking.
"If you are done interrupting me, I can tell you all the information necessary. Different factions in my world sent their promising younger generation to this world to compete with each other as a trial."
"The purpose of this trial is quite simple: establish a dynasty and compete for the luck of this world. As for other participants, there are many of them. However, the most powerful are me and three other people."
"I'm sure you have heard of them. Didn't your Eastern Rain Kingdom receive the changes that happened in the three central Dynasties?"
Yu Siyu then remembered a few years ago that her disciple received such information. At that time, the whole kingdom, not the whole world was in uproar--especially when the Great Wei Dynasty suddenly changed its name to Great Wu.
"Young master, you mean that the changes of these three dynasties is because of the people from the Higher Realm like you?"
"That's correct."
After hearing the positive answer, Yu Siyu started to frown. From this little information, she could tell that Heaven was about to change with the arrival of these people from other worlds.
She looked at her disciple who was as quiet as a scared bunny and sighed.
Seeing the silent atmosphere of the room, Wang Wei realized that he might have gone too far with his previous warning. Without the princess participating in the conversation, things will not proceed smoothly.
"Your highness Dong Lifen, I apologized for my previous indiscretion. In order to make up for my fault, I will treat you to a delicacy from my world."
After saying that, Wang Wei took out his own tea and started brewing it. Using a standard tea ceremony, he began to serve all three of them.
Yu Siyu looked at Wang Wei's actions and was quite surprised on the inside. She noticed that in just a few actions, he used his strength to place her disciples in her place and insert his dominance in the conversation.
Then, with an apology and some tea, he brought her into his good grace again. Yu Siyu realized that this young master was not only powerful, but also a person with a great and calculating mind.
Furthermore, from the standard tea ceremony he just did, he must have received a strict aristocratic education.
After serving the tea, Wang Wei explained with a smile:
"This is my favorite tea named Longxue. It is a very rare thing even in my world. Please enjoy."
Both princess Dong Lifen and her master tasted the tea with anticipation. And they were not disappointed.
The tea seemed to be able to play with their taste buds like a grandmaster of the qin, It catered to their very specific taste and desire.
After a few minutes of drinking, a vast amount of blood qi overflowed from Dong Lifen's body: she was about to break through the Divine Sea Realm.
Just this single tea has made up for decades of practice for her. In fact, it was not just her who benefited from this tea. Yu Siyu also benefited a great deal.
She has been stuck in the Peak of the Divine Sea Realm for hundreds of years. However, with this tea, she could tell that after seclusion, she would manage to succeed in breaking through the next realm after countless failures.
When Dong Lifen was about to succeed, a powerful voice interrupted her:
"If I were you, I would not do this."
After hearing this, the princess frowned deeply, then controlled her blood qi and stopped her breakthrough. If it was any other person who stopped her, she would fight him or her as if he or her was the killer of her parents.
Upon seeing that Dong Lifen managed to withstand the temptation of increase in realm, Wang Wei's evaluation of her increased by a bit.
As such, he continue to explain to her:
"Most people think that the Bodyrefining Realm only has 9 Layer, but they are wrong. The Bodyrefining Realm has a total of 12 Layers."
"The 10th Layer is known as Saint Foundation, the 11th Layer as the Supreme Foundation, and the last layer is known as Dao Foundation."
After hearing this information, both Yu Siyu and Dong Lifen were shocked. This was the first time they have heard such a secret.
"No wonder, no wonder cultivating in this world is so difficult. All of this time, all of us have weak foundations, how could we reach higher realms?" muttered Yu Siyu under her breath with a hint of madness.
"Do you guys know the cultivation realm after the Divine Altar?"
" We only know that it is called the Transcending Mortality Realm," answered Dong Lifen with a lowered voice.
"Yes, this realm is mainly called the Supernatural Realm. After that, there are the Divine Body Realm, Primordial Spirit Realm, Void Shattered, Saint, Supreme, and finally, becoming a Great Emperor."
"Great Emperor!!!"
"Oh, you guys have heard of a Great Emperor?"
After taking a deep breath, the princess explained:
"In our world, rumors of Great Emperors have circulated for countless millennia. However, no cultivators actually knew what a Great Emperor was. Some believed it to be a cultivating realm, however, the majority believed it to be the ruler of a great and large dynasty."
"As such, in ancient times, numerous people established states, kingdoms, and dynasties in order to one day become a Great Emperor. This situation has continued to this day. However, who would have thought that the Great Emperor was actually a cultivation realm."
Wang Wei then nodded as he finally understood why this world was called "Warring Kingdoms".
After revealing this shocking information, the room fell silent for a good half hour. After which, princess Dong Lifen took a deep breath to calm herself down and asked:
"Young master Wang Wei, I assumed the reason you came to see me was because you have decided to start your own dynasty on the territory of Eastern Rain Kingdom."
"Why should I help you?
