At Ye Qinghan's words, the five people quickly stood up. The young master in the middle, who called himself Dongfang Dao, stepped forward and said respectfully:
"Young master, have you heard of Master's Dripping Blood Guards? We... are the descendants of the Five Guards. When Master died, our clans were suppressed by Ye Jian. In recent years, the patriarch has gone into seclusion and the young master is still young, so our five clans did not dare to act rashly and could only live in seclusion. Now that Young Master's power has been extinguished... uh, the old patriarch has come out of seclusion again, of course our five clans will come out again. After obtaining the consent of the patriarch, we will come to serve Young Master. "
The Dripping Blood Guards? Ye Qinghan suddenly understood. His father, Ye Dao, had used his unparalleled charm and peerless strength to subdue five strong men. They were known as the Dripping Blood Guards. But when his father died on the God-slaying Mountain, the five experts also died, so Ye Qinghan did not know how to react for a while. Now, the five people who suddenly appeared were the descendants of the five masters. At this time, Ye Tianlong must have played a part in the show of searching for his master. It seemed that Ye Tianlong had spared no effort in order to win back his heart.
After figuring out the situation, Ye Qinghan nodded, pointed to a row of square tables behind him, and said, "Well, you sit behind me, we'll talk in detail later."
The five people nodded, sat respectfully at the back, and remained silent. Ye Qinghan did not care about the gazes of the crowd. He sat down alone and began to drink tea. He was not overly intimate with the five people behind him. On the one hand, the identity of these five people had yet to be confirmed. On the other hand, even if there was no doubt about their identity, he still had to examine their strength and character. He did not intend to take five wastes or five villains to participate in the Sect Battle.
After watching the excitement, getting to know each other and flattering each other, everyone lost interest and took their seats. There were three rows of square tables in the Yue clan, forming the word 'door'. The seats above the door were obviously for the Yue clan or the older generation. Ye Qinghan and the other four sat in the first row on both sides of the door. The rest of the young masters knew that their statuses were different, so they consciously sat behind them.
"Congratulations, Young Master Han, you've gained another five strong generals!" Feng Zi sat next to Ye Qinghan and raised her wine glass. Hua Cao, Long Shuiliu, and the rest quickly raised their glasses too. Although Ye Qinghan had promised not to take the initiative to attack, it didn't mean that he couldn't cause trouble, right? Therefore, the four of them would try to curry favor with him whenever they had the chance, even though Ye Qinghan didn't really like it.
"Same to you!" Ye Qinghan nodded and raised his glass.
…
As everyone chatted and chatted, the doors of the North Court of the Yue Clan finally opened under everyone's hopeful gazes. The first to come out was a beautiful middle-aged woman. Her age couldn't be determined, and her figure was still graceful. Her skin was rosy like a young girl's, but there were faint crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, which made her look a little old. Behind the beautiful middle-aged woman was a tall man dressed in green. The man's eyes were like a bull's, bulging as if they were about to jump out. Behind him were three old men. They walked to the front with a smile and naturally sat down at the top row of square tables.
"Greetings, Five Grand Elders!"
Everyone hurriedly stood up. The rules of the Yue Clan's Summer Fire Festival were held and judged by the five Grand Elders of the five clans. They all knew this, so they weren't surprised. However, Ye Qinghan casually cupped his hands, but his eyes were staring at Ye Qinniu, as if he was blaming and questioning him. What was up with the five people behind him?
"Brat, don't glare at me. They were arranged by your grandfather, and they are indeed the descendants of your father's Dripping Blood Guards. There are no problems with their character and strength, so make good use of them. "Ye Qinniu squinted his eyes, smiled, and transmitted his voice.
Eh! Ye Qinghan rolled his eyes, but didn't say anything. These people were his father's descendants, so they were truly his people. Since Ye Qinniu said that there were no problems with their character and strength, then there shouldn't be any problems. He would observe them in the future and make good use of them.
"Young Masters, you are the elites of the new generation of the House of Ares. Today, I am honored to represent the Yue Clan in welcoming you to the Summer Fire Festival. Your presence brings light to the Tranquil Lake Island. Now, I announce the official start of the Summer Fire Festival! "
Yue Ji smiled and stood up. She said a few simple pleasantries, then announced the official start of the Summer Fire Festival. In the beginning, the young masters thought that there would be a very long and complicated speech. Now that they saw that Yue Ji was so understanding and immediately entered the main topic, they couldn't help but smile very sincerely. Their smiles were very bright and happy.
Yue Ji was also very happy to see everyone laughing so happily. She gently raised her hand … However, after a moment, she seemed to have discovered something. Her expression was somewhat solemn, and she didn't lower her hand in midair. She only stared blankly at the northern sky. Ye Qinniu, Xue Fei, and the others also stopped whispering and looked at the northern sky with some solemnity.
Ye Qinghan and the others were also puzzled. They also looked toward the northern sky, but they didn't discover anything. However, after a moment, a deafening roar suddenly sounded in the northern sky. Then, a black dot rapidly grew larger in everyone's eyes.
"A dragon roar!"
"It's a Level Seven Demonic Beast, the Winged Dragon!"
Only then did everyone realize what the Grand Elders were looking at. They were shocked, but they calmed down in the blink of an eye. However, the excitement and excitement in their eyes were obvious.
In all these years in the House of Ares, there had never been a case of a magical beast running into the three prefectures to cause trouble. Therefore, it was obviously impossible for a wild magical beast to come here. Since it wasn't wild, then it was very simple. This seventh level magical beast, the winged dragon, was reared by someone. As a powerful existence, the winged dragon wasn't something that ordinary people or clans could rear. There was only one place on the continent that could rear a winged dragon, and that was the Divine City!
This winged dragon was clearly flying toward the Tranquil Lake Island. That meant that someone from the Divine City had come!
The Divine City!
What did the Divine City represent? If the Tranquil Lake was said to be the holy land in the hearts of the men in the House of Ares, then the Divine City was the holy land in the hearts of the people in the world.
Five thousand years ago, the three prefectures often fought because of the differences in races and civilizations. Every time the three prefectures fought, a large number of warriors would die. Countless civilians, demons, and barbarians would be affected. Until five thousand years ago, a mysterious man named "Tu" was born out of thin air. He single-handedly defeated all the experts of the three prefectures on the Sacred Mountain where the three prefectures fought. He forced the three prefectures to stop fighting and established the Divine City on the Sacred Mountain where the three prefectures fought.
After that war, the Divine City became the most powerful existence on the continent. Its brilliance was like the stars in the sky. It was so dazzling and unsurpassable. It also brought five thousand years of peace to the continent. At least the civilians wouldn't die for no reason. Those who liked fighting … Sure, go to the prefecture battles and kill to your heart's content. The more you kill, the more you'll be rewarded. Those who liked peace … Sure! Live a peaceful life without having to worry about the mutated races coming to your doorstep in the middle of the night.
Afterward, other than a few loose rules, the divine city had never interfered with the affairs of the prefectures. It stood quietly on the divine mountain, like an otherworldly master, smiling at the clouds in the sky and calmly watching the storms in the world.
It was because of the Divine City's indifferent attitude that the people of the three prefectures began to accept the Sacred Mountain and the Divine City represented by the powerful man.
However, there were talented people in every generation. Countless experts and heroes appeared in the past few thousand years. They seemed to care a little about the tall Divine City, which was pressing down on their sky and blocking their way. Therefore, they picked up the swords in their hands, walked up the mountain, and walked into the city. However … the ending was always the same. No one had ever walked into the Divine City with a sword and walked out again. Never!
Therefore, the Divine City became a sacred place in the hearts of the people on the continent. The Divine City became a taboo existence.
But today! During the Summer Fire Festival, the Tranquil Lake welcomed a special guest for the first time. A guest from the Divine City. How could the people here not be shocked? How could they not be shocked? How could they not be excited?
They looked at the approaching Winged Dragon, as well as the young man dressed in fluttering white robes on it. Ye Qinghan narrowed his eyes. He didn't have a good impression of the Divine City. He had always been resisting that tall Sacred Mountain in his heart. It was as if that mountain was too high, so high that the people on the continent couldn't even lift their heads. And now, the Divine City actually sent a young man to the Tranquil Lake. What was the meaning of this?
Yue Ji finally put down her hand, but her expression was not as solemn as before. She smiled at the young man in the sky. Since the Divine City didn't send those old fellows, but a young man. Today was the Summer Fire Festival, the day the Yue Clan chose a son-in-law. The young man's purpose for coming here in such a grand manner was already very clear. Although it might not be a good thing, it would at least not be a bad thing. Therefore, he was slightly relieved.
Ye Qingniu and the others, on the other hand, had solemn expressions. With their status, they had the right to talk to the old fellows of the Divine City. However, the young man who came to the Divine City today was someone they had never seen before. Moreover, he was so ostentatious and brazenly coming to steal women. How could they not be worried? How could they not be angry?
Feng Zi, Hua Hua, and Long Shuiliu looked a little gloomy. Another strong opponent had come. And from the looks of it, he looked pretty good. Most importantly, he had a mountain behind him. Meanwhile, Xue Wuhen wasn't as cultured and refined as he used to be. His expression wasn't gloomy either. Instead, there was some inexplicable joy and excitement. Ye Qinghan didn't care. He continued to drink his wine with a lazy look. After a short while, he regained his desire to be strong again. I'm not asking for anything, and I don't want anything. The more you guys fight, the more exciting it will be for me. It'll be a waste if I don't watch a free monkey show!
Boom!
The Winged Dragon landed heavily on the ground in front of everyone's eyes. The moment the Winged Dragon landed, a white figure lightly tapped his feet. His entire body emitted a golden light. Like an ancient god, he glided and floated towards the crowd. Landing steadily on the ground, the golden light instantly retracted. The young man in white smiled and cupped his fists towards the few Grand Supreme Elders at the head of the table.
"Tu Qianjun greets the seniors. I've long heard of Lady Qingcheng's unparalleled beauty. Today, I, Tu, have specially come to pay my respects. Furthermore … I heard that the young elites of the House of Ares are all here. I, Tu, also hope to be friends with the Martial Arts Association."
