Everyone's heart skipped a beat when they heard that, including the grand elder. They could not help but think about the World of Forsaken Saints.
"Did Changyang Qing Yun learn about the World of Forsaken Saints before us?" A Holy Emperor thought.
Changyang Qing Yun paused for a while. He became extremely stern, "You must still remember the war god of the Hundred Races who invaded our Tian Yuan Continent in ancient times and slaughtered many of our experts. Now that the War God of the Hundred Races has reappeared, he'll definitely create a storm of blood on the Tian Yuan Continent once he matures. Now that the War God of the Hundred Races is by Jian Chen's side, we need to kill the War God of the Hundred Races while he's still in the cradle, or our Tian Yuan Continent will face another great disaster. "
Aside from the grand elder of Mercenary City, everyone became shocked when they heard that. The war god of the Hundred Races was one of the four existences who had surpassed the Holy Emperor in ancient times. He had once left behind an extremely terrifying nightmare for the humans. Even the ten protector clans were unable to stop him even when they used everything they had. If it were not for the appearance of Mo Tianyun in the final moment and repelling Ruijin, the Tian Yuan Continent probably would have ended up in the hands of the Hundred Races.
The news of the war god's reappearance was just far too shocking to everyone.
Only the grand elder of Mercenary City remained the same. He chuckled like nothing had happened, "Perfect timing, perfect timing. The war god of the Hundred Races has appeared at just the right time. Now that our Tian Yuan Continent is facing a crisis of life and death, we're in dire need of power. The war god's appearance is like sending coal in the snow."
"The grand elder is extremely correct. Not only has the war god of the Hundred Races reappeared, but even the ancient divine beast, the Winged Tiger, has been reborn. If they grow up, they'll all become Origin realm experts. They'll be the peak power of our world," said the ancestral emperor of the Felicity Empire.
Changyang Qing Yun and the others became stunned by the ancestral emperor's words. They became rather confused. The five of them glanced past the twenty or so Holy Emperor experts who had saved them with a strange expression. Not only did they not see the heavy expressions they had in the past half a year, but there were even quite a few of them who were delighted.
In ancient times, the war god of the Hundred Races had an irreconcilable enmity with the magical beasts and humans, and the Tian Yuan Continent had almost fallen into the hands of the Hundred Races. Now that the war god of the Hundred Races had reappeared, he would become an existence that surpassed the Holy Emperor before long. With the current strength of the Tian Yuan Continent, there was no power that could stand up to him. However, not only did the Holy Emperor experts not do anything to kill the war god of the Hundred Races while he was still growing, they even felt happy. This immediately made Changyang Qing Yun and the others doubt whether they were still on the Tian Yuan Continent and whether the twenty Holy Emperor experts before them were humans or not.
This was because in the eyes of Changyang Qing Yun and the others, probably only the experts of the Hundred Races would be able to rejoice after learning that the war god had reappeared.
"Changyang Qing Yun, now that you've broken free, please come with us to Mercenary City. Something major has happened on the Tian Yuan Continent. We've already sent out invitations with the other protector clans, inviting all the Holy Emperor experts on the continent to gather in Mercenary City.
Even some of the human experts from overseas have been invited, "the grand elder of Mercenary City said with a serious expression.
"Something major has happened on the Tian Yuan Continent? Have you already known that the war god of the Hundred Races has reappeared? Are you gathering all the experts of the world to deal with the war god? " Changyang Qing Yun asked in doubt. In his opinion, nothing was more important than the reappearance of the war god of the Hundred Races. However, what he did not understand was why some of the Holy Emperor experts were so happy when he mentioned the war god. He could not figure it out no matter how hard he thought about it.
The grand elder's stern face immediately melted away from Changyang Qing Yun's words. He bitterly smiled and shook his head, "If it were before, the reappearance of the war god of the Hundred Races would obviously be a great problem for us, but the situation is different now. The seal beneath Mercenary City has been broken, so the experts from the World of Forsaken Saints can attack our Tian Yuan Continent at any time. Our Tian Yuan Continent is in dire need of strength right now, so the war god's sudden appearance at such a crucial time is obviously a joyous matter for us."
"What? The World of Forsaken Saints? Was what grand elder Tian Jian said a few years ago true? "Changyang Yuan Wuji was immediately surprised as he asked in disbelief.
The expressions of Changyang Qing Yun, Changyang Qing Jueri, Changyang Qing Yunfeng, and Changyang Yuan Zhenghua all changed slightly when they heard that. They looked at each other and saw deep shock in each other's eyes.
They had heard about the matter of the seal beneath Mercenary City from Tian Jian in the past, but it was just too exaggerated and too bizarre. None of them believed it.
"Could it be that it's true?" Changyang Qing Yun and the others all thought inside. Actually, when they mentioned that the war god of the Hundred Races had reappeared, they vaguely knew the answer from the expressions of the experts from the Holy Emperor.
"Everyone, time is short. Please visit Mercenary City right now and discuss the important matter," the grand elder invited them again. The grand elder of Mercenary City invited him again. Without saying anything else, he directly ripped open space and created a Space Gate before leaving.
Afterwards, the twenty-odd experts from the Holy Emperor who had come with the grand elder all created Space Gates and left as well.
Changyang Qing Yun and the others saw that everyone had left. After a moment of thought, they hurriedly handed over a few matters before closing the World Gate to Changyang Prefecture. They ripped open a Space Gate and left, hurrying to Mercenary City.
When they arrived in Mercenary City, they discovered that the city had been reduced to ruins with a single glance. Their hearts immediately sank slightly. They had never thought that something so major would happen on the Tian Yuan Continent in the few months they had been trapped in the miniature world.
Changyang Qing Yun and the others were invited into the miniature world of Mercenary City. The number of experts from the Holy Emperor gathered there rapidly increased. Mercenary City had already contacted the ten protector clans, the three great empires, and many ancient clans to invite all the Holy Emperor experts on the Tian Yuan Continent. Even the human Holy Emperor who cultivated overseas had hurried over.
All the experts from the Holy Emperor gathered there were rather heavy-hearted, causing the atmosphere in the hall to become rather oppressive. The news regarding the World of Forsaken Saints weighed on their chests like a boulder, suffocating them.
Changyang Qing Yun and the others naturally discovered Changyang Zu Xiao and Changyang Zu Yunxiao in the crowd. Their eyes seemed to spit fire. However, the five of them understood that this was not a suitable place to resolve the internal conflicts of their clans. At the same time, they had come into conflict with the Zu branch over the Saints' Fruit. It was not a glorious matter, so Changyang Qing Yun naturally did not wish for this matter to spread. As a result, he just closed his eyes and treated the two of them as if they did not exist.
At this moment, a gentle, heavenly, and melodious sound of a zither suddenly rang out from outside. The sudden sound of the zither seemed to possess a boundless charm. It possessed a mysterious power, soothing the heavy hearts of all the experts from the Holy Emperor who heard it. The sound of the zither seemed to have erased all the worries and unhappiness of the Holy Emperor experts, silently allowing them to return to their normal states of mind.
In the blink of an eye, the heavy atmosphere in the hall vanished. It was replaced by a light and lively atmosphere.
All the experts from the Holy Emperor were greatly shocked when they sensed the change in their mental state. They all turned their heads toward the entrance and saw a tall, veiled woman in purple clothes leisurely walk in with a zither in her arms.
This woman did not emit any aura at all. She looked like an ordinary person who had never cultivated before. However, the aura she exuded was filled with nobility, holiness, and transcendence. She was like an otherworldly fairy.
The woman's eyes were bright and captivating. Although her face couldn't be seen clearly, it wasn't difficult to guess her beauty just by looking at her limpid eyes.
"What a peerless beauty. Why have I never heard of this woman's legend?" At that moment, many of the experts from the Holy Emperor in the hall secretly sighed in amazement. At the same time, they all thought the same thing. Very few of them actually knew about the woman.
"That's strange. She's clearly not plucking the zither strings, but I can feel that the music is coming from her. Just how is this music produced? And how is she able to produce the music without using her hands or the zither? " A Holy Emperor was filled with curiosity. He could not figure it out no matter how he thought about it. Even with his knowledge, he was unable to explain it.
"She's actually Hao Wu's daughter, known as the Heavenly Enchantress. I never thought that her Way of the Zither would have reached such an unfathomable level. She's actually able to affect the mind of the Holy Emperor. It's truly unbelievable, "thought a well-dressed old man in the crowd. However, he soon sighed and became gloomy.
The old man was the ancestor of the Zaar family, as well as Zaar Caiyun's great-grandfather.
The Heavenly Enchantress steadily walked into the hall with her zither. She did not even glance at the experts of the Holy Emperor in the surroundings. She only looked at the elders of Mercenary City and bowed slightly. She gently said, "I've come to participate in the banquet of Mercenary City. Greetings to the elders of Mercenary City." It was obvious from the Heavenly Enchantress' tone that she respected the elders of Mercenary City.
"Hehe, I never thought that Shangguan Mu 'er would come to our Mercenary City so soon. I had thought it would take a few more days for you to arrive. What's even more unexpected is that in just a few decades, Shangguan Mu 'er's comprehension of the Way of the Zither has reached such an unfathomable level. It's truly shocking, "the grand elder of Mercenary City smiled.
"So it's you!" As soon as the grand elder finished speaking, another loud voice rang out. Under Changyang Qing Yun's lead, the five great elders of Changyang Prefecture all stood up.
They all glared at the Heavenly Enchantress as they were furious.
"That's right, it's her. She was the one who secretly used her zither to make all the clansmen of Changyang Prefecture fall into a slumber, preventing us from casting down the Origin Formation. Otherwise, why would our Changyang Prefecture have been sealed up by the three magical beasts?" Changyang Qing Jueri furiously said.
