Without contact with the outside world, they naturally did not know the changes in the outside world. It was not difficult to preserve the ancient traditions from hundreds of years ago.
All martial artists in the world were accompanied by loneliness and bitter cultivation.
They could endure loneliness!
Thirty-two young men, thirty girls, and two young men all knelt on one knee. Their eyes were filled with respect. They did not dare to look Braydon Neal in the eye. They lowered their heads and said humbly, “Greetings, Your Holiness.”
“Everyone, get up!”
Braydon frowned slightly, showing a hint of dissatisfaction.
“If Your Holiness is dissatisfied, I can change a batch of maidservants for you,” the silver-haired granny said hurriedly.
“There is no kneeling ceremony in the Northern Army. This is the Heavenly Mountain, where the teacher lives. I can’t say much, but I don’t allow kneeling here. There is no distinction between master and servant.”
Braydon’s words had a deeper meaning.
The Northern King had over a million elites under his command, and they had always addressed each other as comrades, not allowing any kneeling.
He was born as a man, standing between heaven and earth.
Why did he need to kneel to outsiders?
The heroic men of the Northern Army didn’t even fear the heaven and earth. They killed all the so-called G.o.ds and ghosts with one slash.
This was the heart of martial arts that Braydon had set up for them.
The heart of a martial artist should be fearless.
Without such boldness, it would be difficult to achieve great success in martial arts.
The prosperity of Hansworth that Braydon wanted was for the men of Hansworth to be like dragons and for the women to be like phoenixes.
This was the prosperity that Braydon wanted, not the power to dominate the court, stand in the world, and rule the world.
If Braydon was really greedy for power and fame, why would he wear a commoner’s robe?
Why would he need to guard the desolate land of the northern desert?
With Braydon’s military achievements and prestige, he could have entered the palace long ago. The officials would bow their heads and listen to his orders.
However, those things were all things that the Northern King did not want.
At this moment, Braydon’s words caused everyone’s expression to change.
At the entrance of the hall, Frosty and the other two girls stood quietly.
“Little Seven is different from us,” Rhea Reeves said helplessly.
“Of course, Little Seven is the son of the country’s fate and the young leader of Hansworth. However, why did the teacher give the little black stone to Gideon and ask him to pa.s.s it to Little Seven? Why didn’t the teacher give it to him personally?”
Lana Sadler’s clear eyes revealed a somewhat puzzled expression.
Rhea shook her head lightly. “Who knows? If it wasn’t for the old leader, Teacher wouldn’t have come out of seclusion.”
The old leader they spoke of was definitely the leader of Hanworth.
The ancient inheritance hidden in the dark was extremely mysterious.
It was this old leader who had descended on Heavenly Mountain not long ago that had made the Sovereign Lord come out of seclusion and help him pa.s.s the item to Braydon.
This item was the little black stone in Braydon’s hand.
What exactly was the little black stone?
Perhaps Frosty and the others already knew the answer.
However, no one told Braydon.
Braydon stood outside the hall and said that he didn’t need maidservants. In the future, when the martial artists of Heavenly Mountain were to see him, they didn’t need to bow to him.
Harriet Jara immediately panicked. She chased after Braydon and tried to dissuade him. “Your Holiness, this ancient etiquette cannot be disregarded. The rules of Heavenly Mountain were set by the past Sovereign Lords. Your Holiness inherited the Spirit Summoning Monarch Art, so your status is the most honorable among the seven of you!
“Your Holiness, you are the Young Sovereign Lord of Heavenly Mountain, the next successor of Heavenly Mountain. You can’t live without someone to take care of you. The rules set by the ancestors should be abided. You can’t disregard the rules!”
Grandma Harriet was already so old, but she was worried sick about Braydon.
The next master of Heavenly Mountain.
None of the martial artists on Heavenly Mountain dared to be negligent.
Those who were negligent would die!
Braydon stopped and looked at the thirty-two people behind him. “If I dismiss them, what will happen to them?” he asked softly.
“Executed!”
Grandma Harriet said the cold truth.
In the end, Braydon gave her a cold look. He knew that Heavenly Mountain was also considered a secluded cultivation sect.
This kind of power was hidden in the human world and was not known by outsiders.
The laws of the country could not cover this place.
Therefore, some of the martial artists on Heavenly Mountain were born with a predestined fate.
Life and death were not in their hands, let alone their own fate and dignity.
This was the reason why Braydon could not get along with the four ent.i.ties.
Braydon was born with a different philosophy from them.
Braydon said calmly, “The sects will be destroyed by the Northern Army sooner or later.”
Braydon left his original spot and arrived at the quiet courtyard behind the main hall.
This was Braydon’s residence.
The courtyard had been built for many years, and this was the first time it welcomed its owner.
Grandma Harriet brought thirty-two people into the small courtyard. Braydon didn’t reject these maidservants in the end.
If he did, these girls would die!
No one cared about their lives!
The silver-haired granny was about to speak, “Your Holiness…”
“You may leave!”
Braydon didn’t need anyone to take care of him.
The silver-haired granny lowered her head and slowly left the courtyard.
There was a large courtyard with a pond, a fragrant garden, and a wooden house.
This place was like a paradise.
The thirty-two people spread out and cleaned the entire courtyard.
Braydon sat alone in the courtyard. Someone immediately brought over some wine and snacks.
“Your Holiness, do you need anything else?” asked a slim, fair-skinned girl. She was in the prime of her youth and had a beautiful oval face.
“Sit down and let’s have a chat.”
Braydon looked up at her and asked her to sit down.
The girl’s face was pale. She quickly knelt down and said, “The rules of the Heavenly Mountain forbid maidservants from sitting at the same table as His Holiness. If we violate the rules, we will be executed.”
“Once you enter this small courtyard, no one will dare to punish you!”
Little Fool knew Braydon’s protectiveness the best.
In the outside world, the soldiers of the Northern Army, even those who had retired, would not be punished easily by the five main teams under the five commanders if they were to wear cold swords and make mistakes. They would be sent back to the northern region and have the Northern Army deal with them.
Of course, it was the same on Heavenly Mountain.
If the people in this small courtyard committed a mistake, Grandma Harriet and the others couldn’t go past Braydon to punish them.
Only then did the girl stand up with her head lowered, still not daring to sit down.
The rules of Heavenly Mountain had been instilled in their minds since they were young. They knew the consequences of doing anything wrong.
Braydon held the wine gla.s.s and looked at the viscous wine inside. It was red wine and had the fragrance of fruits.
The girl said softly, “This is Barbera. It’s brewed from sixteen types of flowers and fruits that contain spiritual energy. It’s also mixed with Inferno Gra.s.s. At first, it has the fragrance of flowers and fruits, but later on, it also has the burning effects of wine.”
After all, this was wine, not flower tea.
“What’s your name?” Braydon put down his wine gla.s.s.
“I’m Xana. I’m nineteen years old this year!” The girl said in a charming voice as she refilled the wine gla.s.s.
“I have a friend with the same name as you. Her name is Xana Thomas.”
Braydon thought of the eldest daughter of the Thomas family, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
