The clouds dissipated, revealing Lan Ningxu's figure. She smiled and looked at the crowd. "Hello, everyone. Have you eaten?"
"Pfft!"
The originally silent crowd instantly erupted into an uproar. A few people spat out blood on the spot and cursed angrily, "What kind of idiot is this? How can he be a champion in the top 10?" "I've never heard of him. I'm afraid the first champion to be killed will be him!" "I dare to bet that this kid won't live for more than three seconds!"
All kinds of curses were heard in the crowd.
However, on the ten arenas, Yang Qingxuan and the others all felt a great pressure as they stared at Lan Ningxu vigilantly.
The top sects and families who were watching the battle all had grave expressions on their faces.
After the Battle of Green Hill, Lan Ningxu became one of the top ten champions and attracted the attention of various forces.
However, no matter how they investigated, they could only find out that she came from the low-level Fenglan Continent and was suspected to be the son of the king of a small country. However, there were many characteristics that didn't match, especially her age.
Other than that, they couldn't find any other clues.
This shocked the entire top echelon of the human race.
Because with their ability, as long as someone existed in this world, there was nothing that they couldn't find out.
However, Lan Ningxu seemed to have appeared out of thin air. Other than the Fenglan Continent, there were no other clues.
"There's nothing in this world that doesn't leave a trace. If there really is, it can only be because the people investigating are not good enough. "
In the void of the Canglan Sea, there was a huge black snail. It had four tentacles and two eyes on a pair of long tentacles were rotating slowly, scanning below. The short tentacles were like hands on both sides of its eyes. The snail shell on its back was as thick as steel and as heavy as a mountain. It was like a moving floating island.
Five men stood on one of the snail's tentacles. They all stood with their arms crossed and looked at the Yunxu Ancient Battle Platform quietly.
One of the black-robed elders frowned. He didn't seem to agree, but he couldn't refute. He just cupped his fist and said, "City Lord, you're right. However, isn't it a bit too much to hide from the top 24 clans?"
A middle-aged man in a black robe stood in front of Zhong Yue. His facial features were firm and handsome. He was Ying Tianshu, the city lord of the Heaven Devouring City. He said indifferently, "It's not that we can't find out, but it depends on how much you're willing to pay. As the Firmament Martial Arts Symposium continued, Lan Ningxu's identity would be exposed sooner or later. So there's no need to pay that price. "
The black-robed old man nodded and said, "I see."
Ying Tianshu said, "But this year's Martial Arts Symposium is rather surprising in all aspects. It was within reason that there were four people from the Star Palace defending the arena. However, there were two Outsiders, one Demon and one Devil. There were even a few Outsiders in the top 100, and they were not weak. Is this a sign that the non-humankind is about to recover? "
The black-robed old man smiled and said, "Our clan has unified the world, and the martial path is strong. It would be extremely difficult for the other races to stir up trouble."
Ying Tianshu said, "There is no eternal overlord in this world. Since the ancient times, the Elf Race had dominated the Star Field. Later on, the Demon Race, the Four Holy Spirits, the Eight Ancient Races, and so on were all passersby. Even for us humans, it's impossible for us to rule for thousands of years and never be destroyed. "
The black-robed old man said, "Then the non-humankind would have to be weakened or something major would happen before the non-humankind could seize the opportunity to rise. Otherwise, it would have to wait for thousands of years for the human race's luck to reach its end before there could be a change of dynasty. "
Ying Tianshu's eyes suddenly narrowed as he stared at Yang Qingxuan, who was sitting cross-legged on the ten arenas. He suddenly said, "What if … something major really happens?"
The black-robed old man was stunned, and the other three people also looked surprised. They did not understand why the City Lord suddenly asked such a question.
"Brother Tianshu, that's an interesting question."
Suddenly, a voice came from the void. On the snail's other tentacle, its eyeball lazily rolled up. A foot reached out from the void and stepped on the snail's eyelid, covering its big eye.
The snail opened its eye in dissatisfaction and shook its tentacle, trying to shake the person off.
However, the person's other foot also landed, firmly stepping on the snail's tentacle. No matter how it shook, it would not budge.
The person who came had handsome facial features. He wore a black robe and had a beautiful beard. There was a three-foot-long sword at his waist, and his eyes were smiling.
The black-robed old man and the others all looked angry, and their murderous aura immediately exploded from their bodies.
Trespassing on someone else's forbidden ground was tantamount to provocation.
However, the person in front of them had an extraordinary aura and was unfathomable. They did not dare to act rashly. They all stared vigilantly and locked onto him.
Ying Tianshu's expression was indifferent, and he was not too surprised. He only said coldly, "So it's Brother Yukui. You've lived in the tomb for so long that you think you're dead. You don't even know how to greet people."
The black-robed old man and the others' expressions changed drastically. They looked at the person on the snail's tentacle in shock. It was one of the ten great sect masters, the master of the Ten Earthly Tombs, Lu Yukui.
"Haha, Brother Tianshu, what are you saying? Is that something a human would say? It seems that Brother Tianshu also thinks you're dead. "Lu Yukui smiled slightly and retorted.
Ying Tianshu said, "I don't know if I'm dead or not, but Brother Yukui is really going to be dead!"
As his voice fell, the snail, who had been restless for a long time, shot out a fierce light from its eyes. Its two tentacles swayed in the air and transformed into thousands of tentacles that grabbed at Lu Yukui.
The black-robed old man and the others also disappeared in a flash.
In the next moment, they appeared around the snail's other tentacle and surrounded Lu Yukui. They all made hand seals and raised their True Origin, preparing for a fight.
"Haha, long time no see. Brother Tianshu is still so direct and efficient."
Lu Yukui stood still on the snail's tentacle, allowing the tentacles to grab him tightly. Even his head was stuck by the tentacles, leaving only his face exposed.
Lu Yukui smiled and said, "I was wrong. I hope Brother Tianshu doesn't mind."
Ying Tianshu snorted and said, "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. If you have something to say, say it. If not, get lost."
Lu Yukui smiled faintly and said, "I already said it when I came. What if something really happened to the Human Race? I wonder what Brother Tianshu's position is? "
Ying Tianshu's expression changed slightly. His eyes flashed as if he was thinking about the meaning of this sentence.
Lu Yukui was not in a hurry. He was wrapped by the snail's tentacles and waited quietly.
After a while, Ying Tianshu said, "That depends on what it is. But there are at least two points that I insist on. First, the interests of the Sky-Devouring City cannot be harmed. Second, the interests of the Human Race cannot be harmed. Besides, everything else is negotiable. "
Lu Yukui smiled and said, "I understand. Brother Tianshu, sorry to disturb you. See you again. "
With that, the snail's tentacles that wrapped around Lu Yukui suddenly stiffened and then shattered with a bang.
Lu Yukui's body slowly disappeared in the void.
