Sea City, renowned for its proximity to the Tianwu Sea, was busting with people due to a joint mission undertaken by various powers from Central State, all converging in this city. Streams of people flowed densely everywhere, powerful martial artists could be seen around, and every tavern was filled to the brim with noisy, boisterous crowds reaching for the skies.
This provided an exceptional opportunity for all geniuses across Central State - a chance to observe powerful Heavenly Prides and to contend and collide with them.
Geniuses, after all, are never content with obscurity.
At this moment, when the entourage from Taiyi Palace and the Three Great Emperor Domains descended from the sky on their flying birds of prey, it instantly drew the attention of many.
There's no helping it, among the Ten Great Regions of Central State, there are countless Sect Forces, but the very top ones are still the Four Great Emperor Domains!
And right below the Four Great Emperor Domains is the long-standing Taiyi Palace.
Naturally, the arrival of people from these four major powers easily caught everyone's eye.
"Ye Zi, our Emperor's sons from the Unrivaled Emperor Domain and the predecessors from the domain should have arrived. I'll go meet up with them first, and we can touch base again when we descend into the Tianwu Sea," Prince Donghuang said to Xiao Ye, saluting with his hands before taking two Titled Emperor Martial Realm experts with him, leaping from the back of the flying bird of prey, flying into Tianwu City.
"I'm off too. See you that day, take good care of yourself," said Nangong Xingyu with an indifferent expression.
Buzz!
Suddenly, endless starlight burst forth from all over his body, wrapping around him, and in the next instant, he disappeared on the spot, moving incredibly fast, so fast that even Xiao Ye couldn't catch a clear glimpse.
The Titled Emperor Martial Realm expert guarding Nangong Xingyu, with a fist salute to the Elders of the Holy Palace, also departed.
"Taiyi, are you coming with me?" Xiao Ye asked with a smile.
Unlike Prince Donghuang and Nangong Xingyu who were not Emperor's sons, they naturally needed to find the strong individuals from their respective Emperor Domains.
"Forget it, I'll go as well. I'll check out what kind of dregs our Absolute Emperor Domain has sent over this time. If they're not up to standard, I'll just beat them all back to not embarrass our domain," said Tang Yi, waving his hands at Xiao Ye, stepping into the Heavenly Dome and leaving gracefully.
Xiao Ye shook his head speechlessly; these guys sure left quickly.
"Let's go. Let's find a place to stay in Sea City first, and tonight, our major Sect Forces will hold a meeting to discuss our strategy to destroy the Sub-palace of Ultimate Palace in the Tianwu Sea," said the Grand Elder of the Main Hall authoritatively.
"Yes!"
Eighteen Devilish Disciples of the Main Hall nodded in unison.
Having flown in on birds of prey, they were naturally cared for by residents of Sea City, who were happy with just a High Grade Essence Stone.
For the martial artists of Sea City, this was an incredible stroke of luck, as the major Sect Forces of Central State chose their city as the gathering point, igniting business to flourish.
The experts of Taiyi Palace walked through Sea City, drawing a great deal of attention, and the overwhelming Emperor's Martial Intent swept across them.
However, with a cold snort from the Grand Elder of the Main Hall, these waves of Emperor's Martial Intent were frightened and swiftly retreated.
Xiao Ye looked around and also saw many Sect powerhouses, some sitting calmly drinking in taverns, some sitting cross-legged on rooftops absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, and some unable young warriors who couldn't help themselves from dueling and exchanging moves.
In any case, today's Sea City wasn't just a gathering place for geniuses, but also a stronghold for the powerful.
A look of anticipation flashed in Xiao Ye's eyes.
The martial artists of Taiyi Palace soon found Taibai Inn to settle down.
Originally, the inn hosted many Independent Practitioners, but when they learned that the powerful of Taiyi Palace were staying, they were frightened away one by one.
Witnessing this scene, Xiao Ye couldn't help but feel moved.
Taiyi Palace was indeed dominant; merely the mention of their name was enough to make the martial artists of Central State give way, without needing to lift a finger.
The eighteen Devilish Disciples of the Main Hall chose their inn rooms based on their strength and status, with Xiao Ye and Lin Feng naturally selecting the best ones.
"Xiao Ye, I'm guessing some folks from the major powers will give you trouble at tonight's gathering," said Elder Yang suddenly with a smile as Xiao Ye prepared to go upstairs.
"Elder Yang, why would you say that?" Xiao Ye asked curiously.
"On our way here, I saw many powerful Sect Disciples giving you unsavory looks. If not for not wanting to disrupt this mission, I would have eliminated those juniors long ago," Elder Yang said with a cold smile.
Xiao Ye suddenly broke into a sweat.
Ever since Elder Yang's Cultivation was restored, it seemed his temper had become much more volatile than before, even to the point of making such blunt statements.
But as for what Elder Yang mentioned, many Sect Disciples indeed showed him hostility, which he was certainly aware of.
"Probably because of Bing Ya," Xiao Ye's eyes flashed with a touch of coldness.
After his relationship with Bing Ya spread throughout Central State, indeed quite a few powerful geniuses looked down on him.
Over the years, Bing Ya had risen to fame within the Ice and Snow Palace, with exceptional beauty and Cultivation talent, attracting the hearts of many great geniuses in Central State, making Xiao Ye a target by default.
"Kid, it's not all because of that girl Bing Ya," Elder Yang then said leisurely.
"There are other reasons?" Xiao Ye asked curiously.
"Don't you know that in the eyes of the major powers in Central State, you're now seen as the future number one Disciple of our Holy Palace, an extremely formidable genius?" Elder Yang said with a hint of laughter.
"I see!"
Xiao Ye understood at once.
He remembered when he first arrived at Taiyi Palace, he had heard stories of many young powerhouses in Central State who often challenged Jun Shitian.
The reason being that at that time, Jun Shitian was the number one Disciple of the Holy Palace, representing the face of the Palace.
If one could defeat Jun Shitian squarely, not only could their name become widely renowned, but they would also undermine the dignity of the Holy Palace. This two-for-one deal would not be missed by Sects that were competitors or had grievances with Taiyi Palace.
Now that he was considered the future number one Disciple of the Holy Palace, he naturally became highly noteworthy.
"Hehe, they think I'm an easy target?"
"It seems my current strength is not yet known to many," Xiao Ye sneered.
After chatting with Elder Yang, Xiao Ye went straight upstairs, found his room in the inn, shut the door, and started to rest, not going out again.
Time flew by swiftly, and soon, nightfall descended. Sea City sparkled with starry lights everywhere.
Wuuu!
Suddenly, a peculiar horn sounded throughout Sea City, its lingering sound reverberating far and wide, possessing great penetration power.
The meeting of the Sect Forces tasked with this mission had begun!
