At the spectator area, the moment the emperor said that, many Perfected Jin Dan cultivators had already begun patrolling and discussing, wanting to discover Mr. Mo's whereabouts as soon as possible.
Some of the Perfected Jin Dan cultivators noticed the green-robed cultivator walking over from afar but did not take it to heart.
After all, he was only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator in his twenties and nobody would pay attention to him.
However, as time passed by, nobody stood out from the spectator area. Instead, the green-robed cultivator walked straight towards the spectator area and was getting closer.
More and more Perfected Jin Dan cultivators noticed this.
Elder Zhang of Azure Frost Sect had seen Mo Ling in the palace before and merely harrumphed when he saw the green-robed cultivator walking over.
However, right after, Elder Zhang's gaze narrowed and landed on the sect badge on the green-robed cultivator's waist, unable to shift his gaze away.
Indeed, Elder Zhang had seen Mo Ling's appearance before. However, he did not know of Mo Ling's true identity nor did he know of Mo Ling's relationship with Misty Peak.
Sima Zhi frowned and asked, "Elder Zhang, haven't you seen Mo Ling before? Where is he?"
"How could this be? How could this be?"
"H-He's actually from Misty Peak …"
As though he did not hear anything, Elder Zhang muttered to himself with a dazed expression, looking as though he had lost his soul.
The third area was filled with Perfected Jin Dan cultivators of the five major sects.
Noticing Elder Zhang's abnormality as well, they followed his gaze and looked down.
Perfected Jin Dan cultivators of Azure Frost Sect and Southern Mountains Sect did not have much of a reaction and merely frowned, confused as to why this Misty Peak Foundation Establishment Cultivator was walking over.
However, Perfected Being Cang Lang narrowed his eyes with a flash of killing intent!
Su Zimo!
"Do you think that I can't touch you just because Misty Peak is protecting you?"
Perfected Being Cang Lang scoffed coldly and downed the wine in his cup.
"Ah!"
Liu Hui exclaimed softly and looked at the green-robed cultivator in disbelief.
Xuan Yi's expression changed starkly as well. In his shock, he stood up with a look of ecstasy in his eyes!
He was not dead!
He was indeed still alive!
At this moment, Xuan Yi suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
Su Zimo did not die, which proved that there was a successor to his sword formation technique.
When Su Zimo went back and cultivated for another ten years, when the next Sect Grand Competition began, with his talent, he might be able to leave his name on the Artifact Board!
Perhaps … after another ten years of cultivation, Su Zimo would be qualified to compete for the Spirit Roll.
Thinking of this, Xuan Yi couldn't help but smile.
It didn't matter even if Misty Peak didn't get a spot in the Inter-Sect Tournament. At least Su Zimo was still alive, and Misty Peak's hopes were not extinguished.
"If Wen Xuan knew that you were still alive, perhaps he would feel a little better …"
Xuan Yi said in his heart.
…
Below the spectator area, many Perfected Jin Dan frowned as they looked at the approaching green-robed cultivator with displeasure.
This was the seat of Perfected Jin Dan after all – it was not a place where a Foundation Establishment Cultivator could casually enter. Even if it was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator from Misty Peak, he could not break the rules!
The discussions at the spectator area grew louder and many Perfected Jin Dan Cultivators revealed displeased expressions.
At the entrance of the spectator area, the bearded man, Bai Yuhan and Bald Vulture had calm expressions and ignored them.
"Hey!"
A Perfected Jin Dan Cultivator who had drunk quite a bit of alcohol stood up with a flushed face and shouted at the three guards.
"Three … burp! Fellow Daoists, who is this?" That person raised his wine glass and pointed at Su Zimo from afar while burping.
The three Great Protectors lowered their eyes, not saying a word.
That person's body swayed and his eyes were blurry as he shouted, "This is the spectator area of Perfected Jin Dan. What is this person trying to do here? Huh? You guards of the capital and the Imperial Army, chase him away! "
The three guards did not move at all, as though they did not hear anything.
The discussions at the spectator area gradually quietened down.
Some cultivators with sharp minds gradually snapped back to their senses.
The green-robed cultivator had already arrived. Not only did the three guards not have any intention of stopping him, even the emperor had acquiesced to it!
What did that mean?
Psst!
Many cultivators secretly gasped as their expressions changed slightly.
Could it be …
That young Foundation Establishment Cultivator could not be …
The drunken Perfected Jin Dan Cultivator sobered up slightly as well. Shaking his head, he tried his best to open his eyes and look at the newcomer.
At that moment, more than a hundred thousand Foundation Establishment Cultivators and more than a thousand Perfected Jin Dan Cultivators were focused on the green-robed cultivator who was about to step onto the golden carpet!
Everyone was watching!
When Su Zimo arrived at the spectator area, the three guards on both sides bowed and cupped their fists at the same time. "Mr. Mo, please take a seat."
Su Zimo nodded with a calm expression and stepped onto the golden carpet, ascending it!
Boom!
The moment those words were said, it was as though a gigantic rock had been tossed into a calm lake, causing a huge wave to surge in everyone's hearts!
The huge square was completely silent at this moment. It was as if an invisible force was choking everyone's throat, making it impossible for them to breathe.
It was the same at the spectator area.
Time seemed to have stopped on and off the stage.
Everyone was petrified on the spot, motionless. The green-robed cultivator on the golden carpet was the only one who was still walking over step by step!
Clang!
The wine glass in the drunken Perfected Jin Dan Cultivator's hand fell to the ground with a loud sound.
That sound seemed to have broken the frozen time.
The man broke out in a cold sweat and instantly sobered up. Recalling what he had just said, his whole body quivered and he hurriedly bowed with cupped fists. With a terrified expression, he said, "G-greetings, Mr. Mo!"
The cultivators at the bottom of the spectator area were all itinerant cultivators.
After all, these itinerant cultivators had not experienced much. Coupled with the fact that Mo Ling's name was way too prominent and frightening, some of them stood up instinctively.
"Mr. Mo!"
"Mr. Mo!"
As Su Zimo advanced, rows of Perfected Jin Dan Cultivators on both sides of the spectator area stood up and greeted him with cupped fists. It was a spectacular sight.
Stars surrounding the moon, accumulating the momentum!
At that moment, everyone neglected the age and cultivation of the person before them.
All they could sense from this green-robed cultivator was a domineering aura that shocked everyone present and was irresistible!
The higher the steps, the higher the strength and status of the Perfected Jin Dan Cultivators on both sides.
Initially, some of the Perfected Jin Dan Cultivators at the back did not intend to stand up and greet him because of their status.
However, the hundreds of Perfected Jin Dan Cultivators at the front had all stood up. If they were to sit still, they would be too conspicuous.
There was almost no time to think. Coupled with the fact that their minds were in a mess, they stood up instinctively when Su Zimo walked over.
As Su Zimo walked over, the Perfected Jin Dan Cultivators on the spectator area became a part of the background.
"Good, good, good!"
Xuan Yi was agitated as he said repeatedly.
As a Perfected Jin Dan Cultivator, Liu Hui covered her mouth as her eyes reddened. Unable to suppress her emotions, she actually burst into tears.
After arriving in the capital, they had suffered way too much coldness and mockery.
Misty Peak was on the decline, Misty Peak was done for and Misty Peak was about to be kicked out of the five major sects.
She was powerless to refute.
However, at this moment, all the rumors vanished into thin air!
She finally understood why the three commanders told them that Misty Peak was about to become famous again!
