Chapter 1741 Spirit Clan Assembly
Chapter 1741 Spirit Clan Assembly
Three days later, at the Spirit Clan's Heavenly Altar!
Today is the day the nine clans of the Spirit Race gather, but it is also the day when the nine clans are about to break apart.
Everyone was anxiously waiting. More and more people from the Spirit Clan gathered here, and gradually, the entire square became a sea of people.
At this moment, almost all the members of the nine major clans gathered together!
Of course, those gathered here are all from the younger generation, but almost no one from each clan knows anyone else.
The Evil Emperor had arrived here long ago. Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar faces before him, a hint of curiosity appeared on his face.
"No rush, they'll be here soon."
The Evil Emperor spoke calmly, for some reason, fragments of this matter kept flashing through his mind, and even he couldn't remember clearly what exactly happened back then...
He couldn't remember it completely!
It's unclear whether the memory gap was caused by Ling Hao's later death, but in any case, the Evil Emperor only had vague fragments of this memory.
"Ah."
Xie Yuan nodded and said nothing more.
Before long, Zhuge Fayun slowly walked over, glanced at the Evil Emperor with a slightly hesitant expression, and breathed a slight sigh of relief when he found that the Evil Emperor had not noticed him.
"The others should be arriving soon."
The Evil Emperor spoke calmly, put on his mask again, and silently appeared behind Evil Abyss, pretending to be Evil Abyss's guard.
As time went on, key figures from each clan arrived one after another.
Tai Yan, the patriarch of the Tai clan, was followed by four Dao God Realm elders, with Gui Ming, the patriarch of the Gui clan, close behind.
Next up was Shen Xuan, the patriarch of the Shen clan. He was the most powerful of the nine patriarchs, and his aura as an early-stage Emperor Realm expert slowly spread outwards!
Following them were the patriarchs of the Killing Clan, Killing Feather; the Poison Clan, Poisonous Green; the Void Clan, Void Misty; and the Death Clan, Dead Silence…
Clearly, all the clan leaders had also arrived here.
"Clan Chief, I wonder if your injuries have improved?"
Sha Yu smiled calmly, and then slowly walked up to the Evil Emperor, his face revealing a strange expression.
Zhuge Fayun coughed lightly, "You've naturally improved. Could it be that you're trying to kill the clan leader? Now that we're in the early ancient times, our Primordial Spirit Clan has become the strongest race in the world. Could it be that you want to incite internal strife?"
Sha Yu's expression tightened. Clearly, he was unwilling to take the blame. He dared not easily shoulder such a huge responsibility; such a sin deserved even ten thousand deaths...
He can't afford to pay it back!
"Of course not, but your Xie clan can't possibly let someone who is seriously injured lead the clan, can it? I think you should pass your position to Xie Yuan as soon as possible!"
"After all, he has been the young clan leader for quite a long time, so what's wrong with giving it to him?"
Zhuge Fayun paused slightly, subconsciously glancing up at the Evil Emperor. Finding that the Evil Emperor was completely ignoring him, he continued, "Hehe, I will naturally pass it on to him."
"But not now, after all, we're still too young!"
He smiled, a slight curve to his lips, and said calmly, "Esteemed clan leaders, it seems you all came here with your own ulterior motives, didn't you?"
Zhuge Fayun directly and without hesitation pointed it out, which surprised everyone. It was something that was tacitly understood, but being suddenly revealed caught them off guard.
"Nonsense!"
Sha Yu's expression changed slightly, and he stared intently at him.
"Xie Wuji, among everyone present, you are the weakest, and you are the only one injured. Aren't you afraid...?"
Faced with such a blatant threat, Zhuge Fayun simply smiled and said, "So? You're threatening me?"
Suddenly, a chilling light swept over Sha Yu.
Sha Yu's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously took a few steps back.
"What do you mean?"
"Of course, it means exactly what it says!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an even more violent power seemed to erupt from Zhuge Fayun's body. This aura caused all the clan leaders present, except for the immortals, to change their expressions slightly, clearly realizing that the other party was actually hiding his true strength!
Of course, apart from the Evil Emperor and the Evil Abyss, no one present knew that Xie Wuji was actually Zhuge Fayun in disguise.
Therefore, everyone was astonished by the sudden burst of power from Zhuge Fayun.
Even Shenxuan couldn't help but glance at Zhuge Fayun again.
"Clan Chief, why are you so angry? Besides, you are already seriously injured. Such anger is probably not good for your body."
Shen Xuan suppressed his anger and stepped forward to greet Zhuge Fayun with a friendly smile.
Zhuge Fayun gave a light "hmm" and said in a relaxed tone, "Ling Hao should be here soon too..."
Shen Xuan paused slightly, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes. What he feared was not Ling Hao, but Ling Hao's seven marks.
Sure enough, as Zhuge Fayun's voice fell, a young man slowly walked over from not far away. It was none other than Ling Hao in his youth!
"I presume everyone has arrived."
Ling Hao chuckled softly, glanced around briefly, and then nodded with his eyes slightly narrowed.
"It's good news that the Evil Clan Chief's injuries have improved. But I wonder, where are the outer sect patrolmen that the Evil Clan sent to deliver messages to the various clans three days ago?"
Upon hearing this, the Temple of Heaven fell into complete silence.
"He's just an outer sect guard. He returned to his clan after delivering the message. Why is the Spirit Clan Chief suddenly asking about him?"
"Returned to their clan?"
Ling Hao chuckled and waved his hand. A beam of light transformed into a water mirror in the air, revealing the scene of Tai Shi An Yi being wiped out.
"The disciples sent by the Tai Clan to track Xie Mo were killed outside the Xie Clan's territory, their souls and bodies completely destroyed. Clan Chief Xie, you said the patrol guards returned to their clan, so why would Tai Clan disciples perish in your Xie Clan's territory?"
Zhuge Fayun's expression changed slightly. "Chief Ling, you are mistaken! Our Xie Clan has a vast territory, and it is inevitable that there will be evil spirits causing trouble. How can you conclude that the murder of the Tai Clan disciples is related to our Xie Clan? Could it be that Chief Ling wants to use this to provoke conflict between the various clans?"
"Whether it has stirred up conflict or not, you all have your own conclusions."
Ling Hao turned his gaze to Tai Yan, "Clan Chief Tai, why did you send your disciples to follow the Xie Clan's patrol guards?"
Taiyan stroked his beard and said calmly, "Xie Mo took my Tai Clan's Qing Shen Pill and left. The pill had our clan's array pattern mark on it, but it was erased halfway. Such methods are not something that ordinary outer sect guards can handle. I sent my disciples to follow him, just to find out Xie Mo's true identity. Now it seems that Xie Mo is hiding a big secret."
"secret?"
A glint of light flashed in Ling Hao's eyes, "It's more than just a secret."
He raised his hand and pointed, a spiritual rune shooting towards the location of the Evil Emperor. "This young patriarch of the Evil Abyss's guard, although his aura is concealed at the early stage of Dao God, is faintly of the same origin as the rune fluctuations of that Evil Ink. I wonder if the young patriarch of the Evil Abyss could introduce him to us?"
All eyes instantly focused on the Evil Emperor. Zhuge Fayun's heart jumped into his throat, and Xie Yuan clenched his fists in secret.
The Evil Emperor slowly raised his head, his face still wearing an ordinary black mask, his voice hoarse like the friction of metal and stone: "I am a disciple of the Evil Clan, ordered to protect the young clan leader. As for Xie Mo, he is just a senior brother of the same clan. It is normal for our rune fluctuations to be of the same origin. Why does Clan Leader Ling make such a fuss?"
"Making a mountain out of a molehill?"
Ling Hao's eyes narrowed, and seven spiritual runes swirled around him. "In this world, the only 'disciple' who can silently erase the Tai Clan's array rune mark and instantly kill a Dao God Realm cultivator is probably the Evil Clan Chief himself, right?"
"As for you... you shouldn't be a member of the Xie clan!"
Before he finished speaking, the seven spirit runes suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, crushing towards the Evil Emperor. The air was torn apart by the spirit runes, emitting a piercing shriek.
The Evil Emperor neither dodged nor evaded; his body suddenly surged with a faint, dark spiritual light, and the seemingly crude evil runes instantly intertwined into a net, forcefully blocking the impact of the seven spiritual patterns.
Bang!
Dust billowed across the Temple of Heaven Square, and everyone was jolted back several steps by the impact. A fanatical fighting spirit flashed in Sha Yu's eyes, while Du Yao frowned, her fingertips already quietly gathering multicolored poisonous smoke.
"What a strong strength!"
Taiyan exclaimed in surprise, only now realizing that this seemingly ordinary Xie clan guard was actually unfathomably powerful.
A hint of apprehension flashed in Shen Xuan's eyes. He could sense the faint imperial aura emanating from the Evil Emperor, which was deliberately suppressed but was several times more refined than his own early-stage imperial cultivation.
Ling Hao was also surprised. He thought that the guard was at most at the peak of the Dao God realm, but he did not expect that he could withstand an attack from seven of his spiritual runes.
"who are you?"
Ling Hao's spiritual pressure surged, and seven marks lit up simultaneously. "Dare to disguise your identity at the Spirit Clan's Heavenly Altar? Do you know your crime?"
The Evil Emperor slowly removed his mask, revealing his sharply defined face. His long, dark hair moved without wind, and the runes around him no longer subsided. Although he still appeared to be in the early stage of the Dao God realm, he exuded an aura that made all the clan leaders feel uneasy.
"Ling Hao, you summoned the various races for a meeting, surely it wasn't just about the fragments of the universe and the unusual events on the border?"
Taiyan was completely dumbfounded when he saw the face that looked exactly like Xie Yuan's.
"You are Xie Yuan? But how is that possible? How could such a wonderful thing happen in this world?"
Looking at the two people who looked almost identical, Ling Hao was completely stunned. He couldn't believe that such similar things could exist in this world!
This really surprised him!
"What? Don't you believe me?" The Evil Emperor smiled and slowly walked up to the other party.
"To be honest, gentlemen, I come from the future!"
what?
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked. They stared at the Evil Emperor in disbelief, their eyes filled with disbelief.
They couldn't believe it, the Evil Emperor...
It turns out... it was someone from the future.
Everyone was stunned, looking at each other, unsure of how to respond.
