Chapter 983: Convening of the Three Yuan!
The crowd fell into dead silence.
Wu Ming coughed and glanced at him. “Let’s find a place to nurse our injuries properly.”
Yuwen Jinghong then noticed that the complicated gazes in the surroundings were causing chills to run down his spine, and he hurriedly nodded. “Okay, okay!”
The mountain peak was very smooth and s.p.a.cious; there was more than enough s.p.a.ce to fit the few of them. But when the few of them moved, there were still a few gazes glued to them.
The surroundings were increasingly silent; only the sounds of the few of them walking was especially clear.
This was clearly awkward.
Mu Hongyu couldn’t help but say softly to Jian Fengchi, “Why do they keep staring at us…”
While Jian Fengchi applied medicine to his arm, he didn’t even look up as he said lightly, “If anyone suddenly intercepted them during the compet.i.tion, they would also stare at the culprit in such a manner.”
Besides, they didn’t even intercept them since they directly reached the top!
One had to know that these people spent a lot of effort to ascend the peak with much difficulty. Now that they saw the Tianling Dynasty’s people easily reaching the top, how could they not be angry?
Mu Hongyu nodded in understanding and obediently shut her mouth.
Yuwen Jinghong and Wu Ming brought Qiang Wanzhou over.
Tuan Zi followed tightly behind.
The five of them gathered in a circle, and the Tianling Dynasty’s group instantly became the largest team on this mountain peak.
Gongsun Yu’s face turned ugly. He had just said those words, yet these people came in the blink of an eye—all five of them in one go no less.
Even the Beiming Dynasty’s people couldn’t do this, yet this group easily completed it with just one legendary fiend! How infuriating!
“Hey!” He couldn’t help but say to them viciously, “All of us came up with our own ability! It’s too much if you play small tricks like this, right?”
Jian Fengchi was too lazy to bother with him as he meticulously treated Mu Hongyu’s wound.
But Yuwen Jinghong couldn’t stand such words, so he crossed his arms and chuckled. “Little tricks? This legendary fiend is ours. Can’t we use it? Besides, before we came in, n.o.body said that we couldn’t do this, right? If you’re so indignant, why don’t you summon your own legendary fiend?”
Gongsun Yu was stumped.
The young man behind Gongsun Yu defended him by retorting. “But isn’t this legendary fiend Shangguan Yue’s? What has it got to do with you? You secretly snuck the legendary fiend in to ascend the main peak… Hah.”
As he spoke, his words had an unconcealable contempt.
Yuwen Jinghong coldly said, “We didn’t bring in this legendary fiend secretly; this is Her Majesty’s. Also—watch your words. Can you directly call Tianling Empress Yuan Xi’s name?”
Hearing Yuwen Jinghong suppress them with Chu Liuyue’s ident.i.ty, that man looked rather fearful and immediately kept quiet.
“Since you admitted that it’s hers, how would it appear here if you didn’t sneak this legendary fiend in? You—”
“Because Her Majesty is also here.” Yuwen Jinghong laughed lightly.
The crowd was stunned in unison.
“Impossible! There’s already five of you here, so how can she possibly be here too?” said Gongsun Yu as he knitted his brows.
“Hm? Her Majesty had already entered this place a few days ago. Counting the time, it has already been eight or nine days. What? It has been so long, yet you guys didn’t know at all?” Yuwen Jinghong glanced at them from the corner of his eyes. “If you don’t believe us, you can ask the few from the Beiming Dynasty. They saw it clearly back then!”
Hearing his confident tone, Gongsun Yu and the rest instantly felt guilty as they hurriedly looked at Jun Jiuqing.
Jun Jiuqing lazily said, “I thought that she would reach earlier, but it now seems like… I underestimated her.”
He admitted it!
Gongsun Yu and the rest instantly became more embarra.s.sed as many doubts filled their hearts. How could Shangguan Yue just enter in the middle? How did she do it? It seems like she’s the only one from all the dynasties that came. Why did the rest not stop her or send other people in with her?
There were too many questions, but there was clearly no meaning in asking them now.
The Tianling Dynasty’s had already reached the top. Could they really chase the former down?
Even though the few of them all looked injured, the red-tailed phoenix at the side wasn’t one to be trifled with…
When the two men behind him saw this, they hurriedly comforted him in a flattering manner. “Little Prince, there’s actually nothing much to be worried about. Even if they’re here, they’re just injured troops and aren’t worth a mention!”
“Yeah! Other than them, who here didn’t use their true abilities to climb up? When the Three Yuan Convention takes place, they will definitely be in a miserable state!”
Gongsun Yu was originally indignant, but he felt slightly better when he heard this. That’s true. It’s better if I place my focus on the Three Yuan Convention! As for the rest… Capabilities will speak for us!
…
The Tianling Dynasty’s people didn’t care about this small argument. This was because they were busy nursing their wounds at this moment while also anxiously waiting for Chu Liuyue’s arrival.
Since the red-tailed phoenix had sent us here, then… She should also appear here, right?
Seeing the rainbow light gradually revealing its rough outline, the few of them knew that they didn’t have much time left. But when looking around, they still couldn’t see any signs of Chu Liuyue!
…
Time slowly trickled past.
Mu Hongyu’s wounds were basically already treated. Even though she was severely injured before, Jian Fengchi was luckily around and gave her medication in time. Adding on her strong recovery power, she very quickly wasn’t at risk, and her condition stabilized.
As Jian Fengchi had Mu Hongyu’s help, he didn’t suffer as many injuries as Mu Hongyu when they escaped from that terrifying s.p.a.ce. Hence, he was better after some nourishment.
Yuwen Jinghong and Wu Ming had also pretty much recovered in these few days.
So, all in all, only Qiang Wanzhou’s condition was the worst amongst them. He leaned against a rock with his head tilted, and his breathing was slightly weak.
His soft golden hair covered his eyes, so n.o.body saw that a faint light had surfaced on his brows.
In his body, waves of two different forces were crazily intertwining! One was that seal’s energy, and the other was the freezing cold energy!
At Dahuang Swamp previously, that seal already had signs of moving, and the harsh impact from this force now injured him even more!
Besides, with the agitation from the force in the s.p.a.ce, the frozen strength in his body simply wanted to break free of the restriction and rush out!
Excruciating pain filled his entire body!
Qiang Wanzhou curled up, and he painfully knitted his brows. The light on his glabella was even more obvious!
Wu Ming noticed his strange behavior. Just as he wanted to take a closer look, a loud sound was heard coming from the skies!
Lightning descended from the skies and directly struck the rainbow light!
Rumble!
