"Oh? It's Senior Gu."
The four of them had just taken off into the air when a rather cheerful voice came from the right.
The visitor had a youthful appearance, dressed in green, of medium build, and a very ordinary look, one could say without any special features. His profound energy was roughly in the late Overlord Realm. However, in this Supreme Sea Palace filled with powerful people, his face was full of wildness and pride.
He flew over slowly, came in front of Master Gu Cang, and said with a bow, "Junior is honored."
"So it's the Young Sword Master." Master Gu Cang nodded slightly and exclaimed: "In just a dozen years, the Young Sword Master's cultivation has improved so much. I'm sure your father will be very pleased."
The three words “Young Sword Master” made Yun Che and Xia Yuanba frown.
The young master of Tianwei Sword Domain...Xuanyuan asked!
"Hahahaha," the young man laughed loudly, "Senior Gu Cang's praise really makes this junior extremely ashamed. Compared with your disciple, Junior Brother Xia, my cultivation is like the glow of the bright moon, not worth mentioning at all."
The words were self-deprecating, but the tone was full of pride. His eyes swept over Yun Che, Xia Yuanba, and Feng Xue'er one by one, and his smile became even stronger: "Xia Yuanba of the Imperial Sacred Domain, Princess Xue of the Phoenix Sect, and Yun Che of the Ice Cloud Immortal Palace are now famous throughout the world and are recognized as the strongest three of the young generation in the world. I am Xuanyuan Wen of the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain. I have long been fascinated by the three of you. I didn't expect to be able to meet the three of you at the same time today. It's really a blessing."
Xia Yuanba stepped forward slightly, and was about to say a few words of courtesy, but Xuanyuan Wendao seemed not to notice his action. He looked straight at Feng Xue'er and said to himself, "Especially because I heard that Princess Xue is not only gifted, but also extremely beautiful, and is known as the 'most beautiful woman in Tianxuan'. If such a beautiful face is covered by a mere layer of gauze, wouldn't it be a pity? Would you be so kind as to let me see the most beautiful woman in Tianxuan?"
In terms of profound strength, any one of Yun Che and the other two was far superior to Xuanyuan Wendao. However, Xuanyuan Wendao showed no awe in front of them, and still had an aloof attitude that was taken for granted.
Because he is Xuanyuan Wentian’s son, the young sword master of Tianwei Sword Region, and the future master of the holy land!
If he was just arrogant, it would be fine, after all, he was of high status. But his attitude and the words he said to Feng Xue'er were blatantly disrespectful!
It even has a sense of contempt and provocation.
Master Gu Cang frowned, turned sideways, but did not speak. Outside of the Imperial Sacred Domain, the Supreme Ocean Palace, the Sun and Moon Palace, and the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain all had young masters. Among these three young masters, Xuanyuan Wentian was the most difficult to figure out and the most cunning... just like his father Xuanyuan Wentian.
However, he was sure that with Yun Che's ability, he could easily deal with Xuanyuan Wendao's provocative question.
Xia Yuanba raised his eyebrows, almost getting angry. If it was anyone else around, he would not bother to pay attention to Xuanyuan Wenda's question. But Yun Che and Feng Xue'er were also confronting him, and his anger almost instantly surged up... He would not care whether he was the young master of the Sword Domain or not.
Feng Xue'er said softly and calmly, "Xue'er is just a weakling, not pleasing to the eyes. I am sorry to disappoint the Young Sword Master."
“Of course my Xue’er has a beauty that can topple a country or a city.” As soon as Feng Xue’er finished speaking, Yun Che spoke indifferently. He crossed his arms over his chest. Although he was talking to Xuanyuan Wendao, he lowered his eyes and did not even look at him: “But if you want to see it, then I can only give you one word.”
"Oh?" Xuanyuan asked with interest, "I wonder what Palace Master Yun has to say?"
Yun Che still had his eyes downcast, the corners of his mouth seemed to be smiling, and his voice was as cold as water:
"roll!"
As soon as these words came out, the whisk in Master Gu Cang's hand trembled noticeably, and Feng Xue'er and Xia Yuanba were also startled.
“Hahahaha…” Xuanyuan Wendao was stunned at first, but he was not angry. Instead, he burst into laughter: “I have heard that Palace Master Yun is arrogant and there is nothing in the world to fear. He has never taken even our Tianwei Sword Domain seriously. Now that I see it, the rumors are indeed true. No wonder the two elders of our Sword Domain were humiliated and embarrassed by Palace Master Yun. He even almost shot and killed the beloved daughter of the ninth elder of our Sword Domain.”
“Heh,” Yun Che sneered, “Since you know that, why don’t you just get out of here quickly? I can’t guarantee that I won’t kill you here!”
Xuanyuan asked, his expression finally changing slightly.
He had a vague feeling that Yun Che's words were not simply a threat or a demonstration, but that he might really kill him right here!
With Yun Che's strength, killing him would be as easy as pie!
Although Xuanyuan Wentian had warned him not to come in contact with Yun Che before the Devil Sword Conference, and had tried his best not to let him feel anything unusual, when he saw Yun Che just now, he still couldn’t help but come closer to show off his Young Sword Master power. Half of it was out of pity for Yun Che who was about to become their plaything, and the other half was to see the true face of Feng Xue’er, the “most beautiful woman in Tianxuan”.
However, they forgot that among the many rumors about Yun Che, the most common one was "a madman who can do anything"!
Killing the young master of Tianwei Sword Domain... No one dared to do it, no one even had the courage to say it, let alone think about it.
But Yun Che must be an exception!
He was even able to take on the entire Phoenix Sect alone! Why couldn't he suddenly kill the Sword Domain Young Master in this Supreme Ocean Palace?
With the shock in his heart, Xuanyuan Wendao's momentum quickly weakened. His original arrogance was shattered by Yun Che's one word and two sentences. He smiled stiffly and said, "It seems that Palace Master Yun doesn't welcome me. Well, goodbye!"
Xuanyuan Wendao was obviously scared. Facing Yun Che's words and the faint murderous aura, he, who was not afraid of even the Four Saint Lords on weekdays, did not dare to say a single harsh word before leaving, for fear of provoking Yun Che, this "madman" who did not follow common sense at all.
Xuanyuan Wendao walked away for a long distance before turning back and said calmly, "Palace Master Yun, I forgot to congratulate you for coming out of the Moon-Slaying Demon Cave alive. Otherwise, it would be a pity if you missed this Demon Sword Conference. I believe this Demon Sword Conference will be unforgettable for you for the rest of your life."
Turning around, Xuanyuan Wendao's face instantly became ferocious, and he whispered fiercely: "I have lived for so many years, and I have never seen such an arrogant guy!"
“Yun Che… I originally had some sympathy for you, but since you are seeking death, I will not hesitate to personally give you the fate you deserve!”
Xuanyuan asked, moving away in embarrassment. Xia Yuanba asked in surprise, "Brother-in-law, is there any grudge between you and him?"
Master Gu Cang also turned his head.
“…” Yun Che pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head: “Let’s go to the Sea God Arena first. This matter… you will understand it soon.”
“Oh!” Xia Yuanba nodded, then sighed, “Brother-in-law, that man is the young master of Tianwei Sword Domain, the future master of the Holy Domain. I guess brother-in-law is the only one in the world who said that to him… And, I felt like brother-in-law really wanted to kill him just now.”
"Let's go." Master Gu Cang said, "From the aura we can tell, most of the heroes in the world have already arrived. It's a bit late to go now."
The Sea God Platform, or "Sea God Island", is a floating island on a floating island, floating in the center of the Supreme Sea Palace. Usually, this is where the Sea Palace disciples compete and take tests, but today it is the place where the Demon Sword Conference is held, and preparations have been underway for several months.
There were tens of thousands of seats arranged around the Sea God Platform. These seats were not directly on the platform, but were floating on the edge. Although they were floating in the void, they were supported by invisible pillars and were completely motionless. Even a profound expert would have a hard time destroying them.
The closer they were to the Sea God Arena, the more terrifying the aura from the strong ones became. Whether it was Yun Che, Xia Yuanba, or Feng Xue'er... or anyone else who participated in the Devil Sword Conference, it was the first time in their lives that they saw so many top strong people gathered in one place.
“What an amazing aura!” Yun Che exclaimed in amazement.
"Of course." Master Gu Cang's expression was also filled with amazement. Although he had lived for more than a thousand years, this was the first time in his life that he had ever seen such an amazing scene. "This Devil Sword Conference brought together five hundred emperors and six thousand Tyrants from the Profound Sky Continent. The scale of the event is probably unprecedented."
“Ah?” Feng Xue’er exclaimed, “Five hundred emperors…six thousand Tyrants…”
Yun Che also took a deep breath and whispered, “I’m afraid that all the emperors and high-level Overlords in the Profound Sky Continent have gathered here.”
Before he came into contact with the level of Emperors, he would never have thought, nor would he have believed, that there were as many as five hundred Emperors, who symbolized the pinnacle of power in the Profound Sky Continent!
“That’s right.” Xia Yuanba nodded and said, “Our Royal Extreme Holy Land has dispatched almost all the emperors and Tyrants above level 6, leaving only three elders with lower rankings to guard the Holy Land. The same is true for other holy places. The Phoenix Divine Sect should have dispatched all the emperors... Even sister Xue’er’s great grandfather is here.”
“Great grandfather?” Yun Che was surprised. “Xue’er, is this the Feng Zukui…senior you told me about?”
“Yes!” Feng Xue’er nodded gently: “Grandfather usually rests in a secret place and rarely appears. I didn’t expect that even Grandfather would come this time.”
"Haha," Master Ancient Cang smiled faintly: "For a Mysterious person at the level of the Emperor, the four words 'The Secret of the Divine Mystery' are an irresistible temptation... even though they know that this may very well be just a cover."
The Sea God Arena was already in sight, and there were already thousands of figures scattered on the floating seats. Even the most insignificant one among them would be a formidable force in the Seven Kingdoms!
“My dear Yun, the seats at the Demon Sword Conference are arranged according to power. You came here in the name of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, but you are alone. It would be lonely to sit alone. How about taking a seat in my Holy Domain?” said Master Gu Cang with a faint smile.
Yun Che thought for a moment, then nodded happily: “Then I will respectfully obey your command.”
“Xue’er, I will go to the seat of the Imperial Holy Land with Yuanba in a while. You can go to your father.” Yun Che turned to Feng Xue’er and said. His words made Xia Yuanba and Master Gu Cang look surprised at the same time.
“Ah? But I want to be with Brother Yun.” Feng Xue’er said in confusion.
“I know.” Yun Che smiled slightly. “But, after all, you are from the Divine Phoenix Sect, and you are also the most important Princess Snow to the Divine Phoenix Sect. The Devil Sword Conference has gathered all the strongest profound practitioners and forces in the Profound Sky Continent. If you were to sit in the seats of other forces in front of everyone, it would definitely damage the reputation of the Divine Phoenix Sect, and your father and others’ mood would definitely be affected. So…”
Every word Yun Che said made sense. Feng Xue'er looked disappointed, but she immediately smiled happily: "I will listen to Brother Yun. Brother Yun is not only good to Xue'er, but also considers Xue'er's sect. If father and the others knew, they would definitely be very touched."
The four of them quickly flew onto the Sea God Platform. Feng Xue'er followed the Phoenix's aura and quickly found the location of the Phoenix Divine Sect. She sat down next to Feng Hengkong.
Yun Che was led by Master Gu Cang to the seats of the Royal Holy Land, and sat side by side with Xia Yuanba in the last row.
Unsurprisingly, the arrival of the three of them instantly attracted the attention of all the experts in the room... especially Yun Che. Under the attention of the entire audience, even the voices instantly fell silent.
