Shi Yan walked out of the secret chamber.
Outside the chamber, Sha Zhao, Wu Feng, Mo Fou, Jiao Shan, and Jiao Hai paled. They looked at Shi Yan with a gleam of fear.
When they were outside the chamber, Sha Zhao and the others felt like they had just experienced a deadly battle. Since they were close to the chamber, when the devouring aura came from the chamber, their host souls shook as if they wanted to jump out of the soul altar.
Even the energy in his body surged like a rising tide. His God power was like a stream that wanted to return to the sea.
Sha Zhao and the others had to endure strenuously. They had to use all of their strength to calm down their host souls and the energy fluctuations in their bodies.
Of course, they knew who had caused all of this.
"You guys?" Shi Yan was surprised. Looking at Sha Zhao and the others with their pale faces and beads of sweat on their foreheads, he was bewildered. "Is it because of me?"
Sha Zhao and the others nodded with a forced smile.
"Shi Yan, was it Bloodthirsty's Devouring power Upanishad? It was so terrifying! "Wu Feng was afraid.
"My soul and God power couldn't be controlled. I had almost entered that chamber. It was like a nightmare," Mo Fou said, still frightened.
"People of the Thousand Fantasy Sect, the Broken Hall, and the Heaven River Temple are waiting for you." Sha Zhao's face was stern. He pondered for a while and then reminded Shi Yan, "The Thousand Fantasy Sect, the Broken Hall, and the Heaven River Temple are the strongest forces in this universe. We're much weaker than them. In fact, the reason why the Protoss didn't attack us for so many years is because we've formed an alliance with them. The three of them are the core forces of this alliance. That's because among them, there are … experts at the Immortal Realm. "
"The real Immortal Realm experts. They're not like Spark, who's just half a step into it," added Mo Fou.
Shi Yan was startled and he nodded discreetly.
"My grandfather also has the Immortal Intent Domain. Just like Spark, he's just at the False Immortal Realm. Otherwise, the Protoss of our Black River Star Area wouldn't dare to cross the line," said Mo Fou.
Mo Fou's grandfather was the Black Wind Old Freak, the real overlord of Black River Star Area. He had thousands of disciples and the other forces respected him. However, such a character was just half a step into the Immortal Realm. He wasn't a real Immortal Realm expert. There was a big gap between the Pseudo Immortal Realm and the real Immortal Realm. It wasn't just a difference of "Pseudo."
Until now, the only real Immortal Realm expert Shi Yan had met was Azure Dragon, the Holy Ancestor of Heavenly Monster Tribe.
There was only one.
The Thousand Fantasy Sect, the Broken Hall, and the Heaven River Temple had Immortal Realm experts. They were the real top forces in this vast sea of stars. If he could get them, it would be a big help to his great plan.
"I'm going now," Shi Yan nodded and said to Sha Zhao's team, "Don't worry. I will help you solve the crisis in your star area. Since all of you came all the way to Agate to help me, I will definitely repay you and do my part. "
Sha Zhao and the others forced a smile and nodded.
…
A bolt of lightning flashed.
Shi Yan suddenly appeared in the hall. His line of sight raked through the crowd. He smiled and chose a seat to sit down.
Chairs were placed in the center of the hall with twelve people sitting on them. They were the representatives of the other forces who were here to watch the battle between Shi Yan and Haig. The ones who were qualified to sit here were the leaders of their respective forces. Their disciples and retinues weren't qualified to sit here.
Gu Ling and Cecilia could only stand at the back of the hall. They were not qualified to sit down.
Mu Wei, Jiao Mu, and Bai Ye Feng were the representatives of their star areas. Similarly, they were qualified to sit here.
However, this seat … clearly had its own hierarchy.
Gulian of the Thousand Fantasy Sect, Xing Ming of the Broken Hall, and Lena of the Heaven River Temple were sitting in the main seats, which were just below the President. Mu Wei and the other forces were sitting in the lower seats. As soon as Shi Yan arrived, he chose the President's seat, which was even higher than Gulian, Xing Ming, and Lena. He wasn't polite at all.
Gulian, Xing Ming, Lena, and the others squinted when they saw Shi Yan sitting in the main seat. They had a strange gleam on their faces. It seemed like they thought that he wasn't qualified to sit there.
They left the President's seat to test him. If he was the Master of the Bloodthirsty Force, of course, he was qualified to sit there. If he wasn't, they thought that even if Shi Yan had received the Bloodthirsty Force's inheritance, he was just a junior. He wasn't qualified to sit on the high platform yet.
Gulian and the others squinted, their faces thoughtful. No one said anything.
After ShiYan's arrival, the noisy hall suddenly quieted down. Warriors from everywhere kept silent, looking at him with strange expressions.
"Arrogant, indeed."
A low voice arose from a corner behind Xing Ming of the Broken Hall. It was Xing Ming's nephew, Xing Yu, who had Second Sky of Ethereal God Realm cultivation base.
Xing Yu was really talented. The Hall Master of the Broken Hall favored him a lot. Xing Yu was young and he hadn't cultivated for a long time, but he had reached Second Sky of Ethereal God Realm.
If Xing Yu was a little older and had reached Third Sky of Ethereal God Realm, he would have a place on the trip to the ancient continent.
The Thousand Fantasy Sect, the Broken Hall, and the Heaven River Temple had a lot of connections. The juniors of the three forces often interacted with each other. These three forces often held training sessions for juniors to exchange their power Upanishads. Thus, the juniors of these three forces were familiar with each other.
When Xing Yu met Cecilia in a training session of the three forces, he was stunned. He fell in love with Cecilia's beauty. For a while, Xing Yu had chased after Cecilia. However, Cecilia had rejected him.
However, Xing Yu wasn't discouraged. Every time he met Cecilia, he would try his best to approach her and flatter her. He hoped that the beauty would favor him.
The warriors of the Thousand Fantasy Sect, the Broken Hall, and the Heaven River Temple knew that he was pursuing Cecilia. The Broken Hall had even tacitly agreed with him. They thought that if he could marry Cecilia, it would help them recruit Lena. It would be a good thing for the Broken Hall.
It was also because of this that Xing Yu had become even more passionate in recent years and pestered Cecilia endlessly, causing Cecilia to be extremely annoyed.
Many people said that even though Cecilia knew the ancient continent was dangerous, she still wanted to go there. It was because she wanted to avoid Xing Yu.
Xing Yu didn't think it was shameful. Quite the contrary, he was proud of it. He often bragged to the others that his sincerity could melt metal and rock. He said that Cecilia also had feelings for him. However, she was shy and didn't want to admit it. He acted as if he was going to eat Cecilia alive.
However, after Cecilia returned from the ancient continent, she announced that Xing Yu was just a smelly fly that disgusted people. Apparently, she wanted people to know that she didn't have a good impression of Xing Yu.
Xing Yu's past bragging instantly became a joke to the three factions. Every time someone saw him, they would mock him, causing him to lose all face. He could only curse Cecilia as a slut, even slandering her for being extremely licentious and having countless suitors.
Xing Yu still didn't understand why Cecilia wanted to cut off the relationship with him. She didn't mind making him lose his face. She wanted people to know that.
Until he saw Cecilia looking at Shi Yan with deep love and infatuation, Xing Yu finally found the reason. He knew that something had happened between Cecilia and Shi Yan during the trip to the ancient continent. Of course, he hated Shi Yan so much.
Thus, when he saw Shi Yan sitting neatly on the chief seat and the other precursors staying silent with odd faces, he thought he had a good idea. He said, "Arrogant, indeed."
These words echoed the thoughts of many people, as well as the words that many of the older generation could not openly say. This caused Xing Ming to feel joy in his heart, and he secretly praised this brat for being quick-witted, knowing when and who should say what was most suitable.
Xing Ming squinted and scolded him. "Shi Yan's the future Master of the Bloodthirsty Force. His position is enough. He's qualified to sit in the chief seat. Kid, don't talk nonsense."
Xing Yu had been with Xing Ming for years. How could he not know what the other was thinking? He snorted and pretended to be a fool. "Uncle said that he's the future Master. It's not even confirmed yet, right? Before he gets the seat of the Bloodthirsty Force, he's just a junior. What makes him qualified to sit in the chief seat? "
Xing Yu raised his voice and glared at Shi Yan from a distance. His eyes had a gleam of contentment. Then, he glanced at Cecilia.
Cecilia's beautiful face was enraged. She snorted and scolded, "This bastard wants to stir up trouble! What a piece of trash. So annoying. "
Guling's beautiful eyes sparkled. She chuckled and lowered her voice. "Xing Yu's a bastard indeed. But he's right. Shi Yan... is just a junior like us. Even if he's a member of the Bloodthirsty Force, he can only have a seat. Why does he have the right to sit in the chief seat?"
"He... He will be the future Master of the Bloodthirsty Force. Of course, he's qualified," Cecilia argued. She thought that her reasoning wasn't good enough.
"I think Xing Yu's right this time," Guling parted her lips and said softly.
Guling parted her lips and said softly, "You see, those old men aren't talking. Apparently, they think that Shi Yan's qualification isn't high enough. They value their positions a lot. They don't want to sit in the chief seat because they think that their positions aren't higher than the others. That's why their seats are empty. Shi Yan isn't arrogant. He's just a hothead who doesn't understand the situation. He dares to sit in the chief seat! "
The old monsters in the hall were strangely silent. They allowed Xing Yu to talk and criticize Shi Yan for being arrogant.
Other than the initial rebuke, Xing Ming did not say anything else. It was clear that Xing Yu's action was in line with his intentions. Those of the older generation placed great importance on status and position. Unless one's realm, identity, and status greatly surpassed them, they would be extremely proud to sit at the head of the table.
If Xuan He, Frederick, or the chiefs of the Bloodthirsty Force had come here today, they wouldn't even say a word.
However, in their eyes, Shi Yan wasn't qualified.
Thus, they let Xing Yu continue to shout. They all frowned and kept silent. Their eyes raked through Shi Yan as if they were waiting for Shi Yan to move away from the chief seat.
