Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chu Yunfan announced that he would seal the mountain and keep a low profile. He was prepared to break through to a higher stage while guiding Chu Hongcai to break through.
However, the storm that he had just caused had just started. The battle between Chu Yunfan and Sima Longyun shocked everyone on the ground.
Before this, although Chu Yunfan had returned, under the contrast of the glory of many ancient prodigies, he naturally did not shine as brightly as before.
In the eyes of many people, no matter how powerful he was, he was just one of the many prodigies.
He was no longer as trustworthy as before.
However, no one expected that Chu Yunfan would first defeat Wu Wenbin in one battle, and then severely injure Sima Longyun in another battle.
According to the speculations of those who had their eyes on him, he was at least a peak Major Arcane.
Thinking back to when he first entered the sect more than 20 years ago, he was only an ordinary inner disciple. His strength soared like a rocket.
“What is this meteoric rise? He’s practically soaring to the heavens in one step!” someone said in surprise.
“l thought that Chu Hongcai was already incredible, the first on the Prodigy List. Who knew that Chu Yunfan would be so terrifying!
“But that’s true. Chu Hongcai is his disciple. If his disciple is already so powerful, then wouldn’t he be even more terrifying?”
After such a long time, everyone also knew that above prodigies and top-notch prodigies, there were the Supreme Youths.
However, the Flying Celestials originally only had Huangfu Longhao, and now there was another Chu Yunfan.
“So Senior Chu is actually a Supreme Youth. No wonder his cultivation speed is so terrifying!’
“That’s right. A Supreme Youth is a seedling emperor. These people can become emperors in the future!”
“l heard that there were some ancient prodigies who came looking for Senior Huangfu, but they were chased out by him. Senior Huangfu is broad-minded and talented. Naturally, he doesn’t agree to take all our resources. That’s like
draining the pond to catch the fish.”
Everyone was discussing animatedly, but at least they found a reliable explanation for Chu Yunfan’s cultivation speed. Supreme Youths were indeed extraordinary—a super prodigy that could not be found in several eras.
However, after Chu Yunfan stood up, the originally hostile atmosphere between the two sides subsided. The interests and resources were divided equally, and each had their dividing line. They no longer suppressed each other.
In addition, Huangfu Longhao unexpectedly chose to support Chu Yunfan’s opinion, so that both sides would restrain themselves and not hara.s.s each other.
This disappointed many people who had ulterior motives and hoped that the two Supreme Youths would collide.
However, the upper echelons of the Flying Celestials heaved a sigh of relief at this peaceful situation. Just as many people had thought, the speculation of the upper echelons that they had left this matter alone was not entirely correct.
Although the upper echelons of the Flying Celestials had a headache over these ancient prodigies, they did not completely ignore them.
However, they were too busy taking care of themselves. After the return of the ancient factions, the various factions could be said to be in turmoil. Under the protection of the Flying Celestials, many true disciples and ancient prodigies did not feel the huge pressure from the outside. They still had the mood to compete for various benefits.
However, the higher-ups of the Flying Celestials felt immense pressure. A storm was brewing.
As one of the top ten forces, the Flying Celestials naturally occupied one of the best and most resource-rich places in the world. And now, because of this, they naturally became the target of public criticism.
All of this made them unable to take care of themselves. The various elders went to various places to resist the invasion of the ancient forces.
The Flying Celestials’ actions were just a miniature of the chaos happening throughout the world.
For an entire year, all the forces in the world that could make a move began to mobilize their troops.
All the troops of Grand Xia canceled their holidays and entered a state of war alert. Experts from all sides appeared, and the experts of the Imperial Court were sent to various places.
Even the top ten sects were on high alert. The other small and medium-sized forces were on high alert. If there was any movement, they would immediately seal the mountain to protect themselves.
Outside of Grand Xia, the Hus, barbarians, demons, marine folks, and many other ancient races had also returned. In fact, an extremely cruel war for the throne had erupted.
There were also a large number of experts who chose to seal themselves.
Similarly, b.l.o.o.d.y battles were inevitable.
Faced with the current world’s three major powers, the ancient powers were also constantly taking action. All kinds of conflicts were endless, and it looked like they were about to erupt into a full-scale conflict.
Everyone was prepared for the battle. The ordinary people were even more worried. However, they had no right to speak in this place. They could only wait pa.s.sively.
Within Grand Xia, all sorts of opinions were getting more and more unyielding by the day.
“Grand Xia is not afraid of any challenge. Anyone who tries to challenge the order of the world will be suppressed by the Grand Xia Army!” The Grand Commandant of Grand Xia spoke first as if he was warning these ancient powers.
After the Grand Commandant of Grand Xia, the king sent out an unprecedented invitation, requesting that all the ancient powers of the Central Plains send representatives to the capital to discuss the future of the world.
For a time, the world’s attention was focused.
At the gathering, all eyes in the world were focused on the Imperial Capital.
Faced with the kings almost command-like request, some of the ancient forces were watching, some were disdainful, and at the same time, some sent representatives to the capital.
Among them, the powerful ones did not care about the orders of the current king. Among them, there were many forces from the previous dynasty who were ambitious and wanted to restore the rule of the previous dynasty.
Naturally, they did not like the current king and saw him as a great enemy.
There were also some people who took a wait-and-see att.i.tude toward the kings orders. They did not believe in the kings credibility, while the other small forces headed to the Imperial City as soon as possible.
Although they were all ancient forces, they were clearly divided into strong and weak forces, and each of them had different requirements.
The major factions in the world were also asked to send representatives to the Imperial Capital in person to discuss and resolve the issue of the factions’ demands.
For a time, the situation that was originally filled with smoke and was about to erupt into a shocking battle was completely suppressed by a single sentence from the king.
At this time, everyone once again realized that in the nine regions, the real number one in the world was not the Destiny Sect, but the Grand Xia imperial family. It was just that the imperial family usually did not do things in a high-profile manner and hid behind Grand Xia, so many people ignored them.
They were the true rulers of this world, the true rulers of Grand Xia.
Rain was coming, and the wind was blowing!
