Ning Theological Seminary
The meadow on the mountainside was roughly in a circle, with green buds gathered from the stars into a flourishing starry sky. There were fewer people in the town than usual, as the teachers took the students to various countries. Although the war had not yet started, they had to keep the communication fast and normal, and not let any place lose contact. As a major force with the most teleportation arrays, the academy was well connected, and this became their primary task.
In the blue-tiled house at the foot of the mountain, students who arrived earlier than in previous years were receiving the most basic education at the academy. They were just like Xia Xiao and others in the past, wanting to listen to the teachers, but they were a little rebellious. Therefore, the academy decided to educate them first, otherwise these undisciplined little guys would make a big fuss. It's okay to make a fuss now, but you can't be careless on the battlefield, especially in a severe war like this, you can't bring in too many personal emotions.
There were various opinions, and Dimuli stood in the pavilion at the edge of the cliff, watching and thinking about selecting a suitable person to manage the foothills. But the current situation was not too optimistic, because no one knew when a riot would occur.
"Miss your old buddy?"
A sexy figure wrapped in gauze set off the newly blossomed peach blossoms behind her, making them look extremely charming. But she was more beautiful than the peach blossoms, which made Dimuli bow solemnly. Before he could ask what was going on, nine more people came outside the pavilion.
Dimuli slowly turned his head back. He hadn't seen some of them for decades, but he couldn't be happy at this moment. The appearance of these people must be bad news. How important could it be to gather these eleven people closest to the top of the mountain? He knew it very well, but he guessed wrong. It wasn't that the war had come.
Thinking back, their team originally had thirteen people. But the eldest sister achieved success, which was a blessing, but Hu Bugui passed away. After her death, he was the one who was tired. At this critical moment, things happened again.
As the eldest sister waved her hand, ripples appeared in the space and a familiar face appeared.
Seeing this expressionless but resolute face, Dimuli asked in surprise:
"Xia Xiao is back?"
"He has just returned to Daxia Zhenxun and is going to announce the news he has to the world."
“I guess we’ll gain a lot.”
The eldest sister nodded. Xia Xiao was surprising her more and more. From his talent at the beginning to his pioneering spirit now, he had indeed done what countless people could not do. However, it was still unknown how the news he brought back would help the war. He only hoped that the effect would be as great as possible.
The vice president went to Zhenxun with a clone, and after Qingxunzi learned about the matter, he also let out a sigh of relief and turned into a clone to come. At the same time, more and more powerful countries received news from Liao Sai and Guan Zhongyi, and the space of the side hall with ripples gradually increased, and faces appeared in it.
When Xia Xiao met the many seniors in the academy, he stood up and saluted. He soon noticed a new space that had appeared. In the middle of the rotating talisman array, there sat an old monk who looked like a real Buddha. His face was old and weathered, but his eyes were as clear as a child who had never been into the world. The turbidity was only superficial.
With this kind of temperament, it was obvious that he was the abbot of Tanghua Temple. He sat between the vast sky and earth, with the temple in the wilderness behind him and facing the sea, which made Xia Xiao solemnly perform a Buddhist ceremony. At the beginning, he entered the Royal Court's Golden Pavilion as a lay disciple of Xuyun in Goulongbang Clan, and he called himself a lay disciple when facing the team of Adventurer's Guild in the wilderness, so this ceremony was too light, so he asked him to put his hands together again and bend down again.
Whether it was the past experience or the help given by Xuyun at the last minute, it was worth Xia Xiao's effort. But the host just had a half-smile on his face, watching Xia Xiao turn his head and look at other spaces with ripples.
In addition to Ningshen College and Tanghua Temple, the shadows of the leaders of the old five major forces also appeared in the room. Fortunately, they communicated with each other some time ago and established a talisman connection, otherwise it would be difficult to achieve such efficiency in a short period of time.
The leaders of the old five major forces were all amazed when they saw Xia Xiao. The Xia Xiao who had competed with them for the ranking was just like this, but now he has such important information, and he is still fine after walking through the darkness of the devil. It is really terrifying. The people of Medicine King Valley were even more frightened when they saw him. However, the current valley master has changed, but Xia Xiao still saw Fu Qing. Although his eyes lingered, they were not threatening.
Fu Qing had promised Xia Xiao that he would join the war, so it was understandable that he would return to Yaowang Valley when the war was over. However, when he saw Xia Xiao's indifferent look, he was still a little afraid, and he lowered his head without saying a word.
When the three monarchs of Si Yi arrived, the Emperor of Nanshang, the Emperor of Gou Longbang and the King of Tianmeng appeared in the palace one after another. At this point, most of the world has arrived, but Xia Xiao is still waiting. How can he hold a meeting when the most important role is not in the future?
Although there were many people, Si Yi still sat in the main seat, after all, this was Da Xia's home court. He asked the maid to pour tea and prepare some snacks. Although Xia Xiao was anxious, he ate a few pieces. After all, it was still early and he had to wait at least half an hour. In the past, time was precious to them, but now they waited patiently and watched Xia Xiao eat a few pieces of cakes and gulp down a few bowls of tea.
His slightly rude actions were seen by everyone in the world, but Xia Xiao still did not stop. No one asked him to pay attention, and no one laughed at him for not knowing the rules.
After the warm water moistened his throat and the cakes filled his stomach, Xia Xiao wiped his mouth and continued to sit there. His eyes were red and swollen, and he looked tired. There were even a few wrinkles on his face that shouldn't be at his age. He looked extremely old, but his expression was still calm and calm, as deep as autumn water.
A person who has seen enough wind and rain and suffered enough darkness can remain calm even when the sky is falling. This is a must for him. Ordinary people cannot imagine how such calmness is honed, but it was broken by the two generals who rushed into the side hall, and the frost on his face melted away in an instant.
Xia Jinghong and Xia Xu came in a hurry, and were immediately very excited to see Xia Xiao here, but there were too many important figures in the palace, so they hesitated to take a step until Si Yi said:
"Come in."
The first impression was somewhat inappropriate, but if Si Yi cared about it now, he would appear petty, so he added:
"Please take a seat."
Before Xia Xiao could say a word to them, a figure appeared in the hall. She was still wearing the red bra and black trousers, which made her legs look long and her waist thin, but she was wearing too little, which made Xia Xiao feel annoyed. She stood in front of Xia Xiao and said as if no one was around:
"I brought them back from Jianglong Pass. Don't you want to thank me?"
Xia Xiao curled her lips and smiled, and was about to say thank you, but Shangshan turned her face away, as if she didn't want such a simple thank you, and at least she had to prepare a heavy gift, and then she found a seat and sat down casually, crossing her slender legs. She was just like that, Xia Xiao was not angry or annoyed, nor did he make trouble with her, but just waited for the three people and Yunguo to arrive.
Now, apart from the master, the vice-president, and the president of the Adventurer's Guild, only Yunguo has not appeared. The former three are relatively close, and they will definitely show up here. Even those stubborn people in Yunguo, this war is so important, they really won't participate? Even if they are far away in the sky, they can't escape from the powerful magic creatures. The barrier they are proud of is not that strong at all, and not all Yunguo people can fly.
When Liao Sai and Guan Zhongyi came back from the side hall full of talisman arrays, Xia Xiao asked:
"Yunguo is not coming?"
"We have established a connection with the talisman formation, but they were rejected when we invited them to join the meeting before. They said they would never show up if you were there."
"Why are you so childish?"
Xia Xiao was merciless, his face was livid, and he continued to ask:
"Can I talk to them?"
After the two nodded, they operated the talisman array remotely and caused ripples in the space in front of Xia Xiao. Wang Jinlong's back appeared. The latter was discussing matters with Wang Yinlong. These days, Wang Qishen has been demanding centralization of power, and all the power of the elders will be taken away. If this goes on, what is the point of their hard work over the years?
Just as they were about to discuss, Xia Xiao's face appeared before them, making them angry and shouting:
"You shameless boy, you are lucky to be alive!"
"Stop talking nonsense. Wang Yaping is not dead. I hid her in the snowy mountains. The people in the Earth King Palace should have seen her."
When the Lord Ren of the Earth King Palace heard this, he had to chime in. Xia Xiao was no longer the young man who was almost defeated by his own disciples. And he really knew that there was someone not far away. He was surprised at first, but it turned out to be related to Xia Xiao. No wonder he didn't take the invitation from the Earth King Palace seriously.
While marveling at how Xia Xiao was a monster and how everyone related to him was not simple, Hall Master Ren said seriously:
"Not far from the Earth King Palace, there is a snow mountain deep in the mountains. On top of it is a snow eagle, who often accompanies a woman to watch the snow and enjoy the scenery. I wonder if she is the Wang Yaping you mentioned?"
"Exactly."
Xia Xiao was very satisfied with what Palace Master Ren said. He looked at Wang Jinlong and said without waiting for him to curse:
"I don't care if you participate in the war or not. If you can avoid it, that's fine, but you must attend this meeting."
"Are they going to attack the sky?"
"Their target is all human beings. If you think the Yun people are not human, you are free to do as you please."
Wang Jinlong said angrily:
"Xia Xiao, you disturbed the peace of my Yun Kingdom, and now you threaten and insult me like this. Do you really think that everyone in the world can tolerate this?"
"Everyone in the world is here, who would have any doubts?"
This meeting was called by Xia Xiao, so everyone naturally kept their mouths shut, and Xia Xiao really did not do anything to harm their interests.
After he finished speaking, he looked at the leader of the Adventurer's Guild who had come earlier. Although he had never met him, the fluctuation of his vitality made him and everyone in the hall salute together. Even the three Si Yijuns did not hesitate to bend their waists slightly. Pride should not be displayed at this time.
"The news is too urgent, so I only sent a clone. Please don't be offended or too polite. Please take a seat quickly."
Long Xiong looked like a rough man, but he could easily shock everyone. Wang Jinlong had seen him before, and when he saw him, he could only sit down quietly and dared not say much. We'll talk about Yunguo later!
Only a few leaders of the forces can release clones to travel to various places. The rest of the people have the intention but cannot do it. The next person to come was the vice president of Ningshen Academy. He did not tear the space like Long Xiong, but drove a sword emitting jade luster and went straight into the busy side hall. He can cross nearly a thousand miles in half an hour, you can imagine how strong he is!
However, the last white-haired old man to arrive was the real finale. He was not as fast as Long Xiong and the vice president, because he was in the east of the East China Sea, not as far as the Tanghua Temple in the wild beast tail horn, but it was also a remote place. But who dared not wait for him? He was the undisputed strongest man in the Great Wilderness in everyone's mind!
When Qing Xunzi walked into the side hall, his face was stern and extremely serious, as if the situation was not optimistic. When he sat down, all the people in the world were gathered together, including the seven great countries and major forces in the Great Wilderness.
"Xia Xiao, let's start!"
Without much preface, after Qing Xunzi said only one sentence, Xia Xiao walked to the center of the side hall. At this moment, his identity was truly changed, and the whole world witnessed it together!
