Back at the Minor No Hatred dao arena, Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di had originally been invited by the Brocade Emperor as guests.
The result had been very awkward.
Their host had disappeared.
Also, they had not been seen for a long time, causing Fu Ting and the others of Ingenious Flying Peak to feel very troubled.
In the end, the Brocade Emperor had not returned as Mars Halberd had instead arrived. Only then had Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting mistakenly entered the Immortal Court and Yan Di obtained the Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud.
Fu Ting had always felt apologetic over this matter.
Still, the Brocade Emperor had never explained why he had missed his appointment back then. The matter could only be left unsettled.
Never would she have thought that a similar situation would actually occur this time.
The Brocade Emperor was carefree and casual, not bothering about trifles. Still, he had always placed great importance on keeping his promises.
It had already been abnormal for him to miss his appointment the last time. Now that he had done it again, it was even more unsettling.
He did not seem to have any motive to specifically target Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain.
With his status and identity, he could just say so directly if he did not want to come. There was no need for him to lie and then miss his appointment.
Still, things seemed very wrong this way.
Yan Zhaoge could smell the scent of a scheme from this.
"Mars Halberd challenged again, suddenly appearing to obstruct the Brocade Emperor?" Yan Zhaoge pondered, "Or is it the same thing that happened at the Minor No Hatred dao arena back then, with him being obstructed again?"
Whatever it was, for it to happen at this critical juncture, there was definitely someone behind it.
Yan Zhaoge pondered for a moment before smiling, "While the Brocade Emperor has not arrived, we can still begin the ceremony on time. Perhaps the Brocade Emperor will only arrive a little later?"
Just like when he had challenged Mars Halberd back then.
The Southeastern Exalt Cao Jie did not object, "The Brocade Emperor will not mind."
Yan Di nodded, communicating with the representative of Ingenious Flying Peak who had arrived.
The other party felt rather uneasy and awkward too as he did not object to Broad Creed Mountain's idea.
Amongst the guests, the Earthly Young Master Chen Kunhua sat there, drinking by himself as his gaze swept slightly across those of Broad Creed Mountain and Ingenious Flying Peak.
Finally, his gaze stopped on those of Ingenious Flying Peak.
"The Brocade Emperor … missed his appointment?" Chen Kunhua stroked his cup, his eyes lighting up slightly, "This is interesting."
Feeling his gaze, Yan Zhaoge looked over.
Retracting his gaze, Chen Kunhua smiled amicably at Yan Zhaoge, raising his cup in greeting.
Yan Zhaoge raised his brows slightly, gazing at him for a while before finally smiling, not saying anything as he turned his head away.
"Oh?" Chen Kunhua's smile faded a little when he saw this.
His gaze flickered slightly as he stared at Yan Zhaoge's back, seemingly wanting to do something. Still, after hesitating for a moment, he finally gave up.
Chen Kunhua's body relaxed completely. He refilled his glass and drank happily.
The Southeastern Exalt Cao Jie and the Southeastern Swordsmistress naturally had seats of honor. At this moment, they could only calm down and silently observe the situation.
Golden Court Mountain and Broad Creed Mountain were now bound together for good or ill. The invading enemies had come for Broad Creed Mountain as well as Golden Court Mountain.
Yan Zhaoge stood behind Yan Di, facing him on the main seat where Yuan Zhengfeng, Fang Zhun and the other higher echelon experts of Broad Creed Mountain sat quietly.
The time for the grand ceremony to officially begin finally arrived. Yan Di stood there calmly, his gaze sweeping across the entire area.
He did not speak, and his gaze was not sharp.
However, the great hall of Heaven Rising Peak instantly fell silent at this moment. Everyone knew that everything was about to officially begin.
Ying Longtu had a serious expression on his face as he was fully focused on wielding the bell hammer, striking it onto the golden bell beside him now.
The heavy sound of the bell resounded far into the distance, reverberating nine times in a row as it was deafening.
The entire Broad Creed Mountain was currently filled with a solemn and dignified atmosphere.
At the foot of the mountain, at the Earth Earth Peak, a group of youths who wished to enter Broad Creed Mountain were waiting there.
There had originally been some noise, but as the bell rang out, everyone immediately ceased speaking, their expressions solemn.
As the bell rang out one after another, the people at the foot of the mountain grew increasingly solemn.
"Our clan has opened its doors and recruited talented people. My Broad Creed Mountain is greatly honoured by your presence." Yan Di's voice reverberated between the heavens and the earth, "As the current Chief of Broad Creed Mountain, this Yan first thanks you all here."
Everyone in the great hall was currently looking quietly at Yan Di who was speaking.
Fairly speaking, in the current Broad Creed Mountain, in terms of fame, the person with the most prestige was Yan Zhaoge, a third generation disciple.
His battle accomplishments at Vast Spirit Mountain and Circumference Mountain had been too glorious as the name of the Fallen Deity had spread throughout the entire World beyond Worlds.
Still, looking at Yan Di now, no one dared to underestimate him.
It was precisely because Yan Zhaoge's previous battle accomplishments had been too glorious that everyone had begun collecting as much information as they could about his past experiences, specially researching them.
During this process, the great battle that had decided Broad Creed Mountain's position as the hegemon of the Royal Reed Sea had also entered the sights of more and more people, being broken down and analysed bit by bit.
Therefore, it was not just Yan Zhaoge. Yan Di had drawn the attention of the entire World beyond Worlds as well.
Opening the path to the heavens with a sabre and domineeringly ascending to the World beyond Worlds, he had slain King Xuanmu of the late Seeing Divinity stage as soon as he had arrived.
In the battle of Broad Creed Mountain afterwards, he had battled a group of Immortal Bridge Martial Saints as a Seeing Divinity Martial Saint.
While it had been a chaotic battle, in terms of the final headcount, besides Shen Lingzi and Kang Ping, everyone else on the Immortal Bridge had perished beneath his sabre!
Guan Lide of the ninth level of the Martial Saint realm.
King Xuancheng of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm.
Daoist Shi, He Dongcheng and Gu Zhang of the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm.
Casting aside their prejudices and underestimation of the past, no longer blindly guessing and finding excuses, when the martial practitioners outside of the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory had earnestly inquired about the true situation of that battle down below Broad Creed Mountain, their shock was no less than when they had first heard of Yan Zhaoge's battle at Vast Spirit Mountain.
From the time he had ascended to the World beyond Worlds till now, around thirteen years had passed.
From the early Seeing Divinity stage, Yan Di had broken through all the way to the mid Immortal Bridge stage.
Such a speed caused the entire World beyond Worlds to sigh in admiration.
Not only did he possess outstanding strength, his talent was shocking as well.
Looking at Yan Di who was currently presiding over the ceremony and Yan Zhaoge beside him, everyone felt complex emotions.
Such outstanding geniuses had offended the Southern Exalt and the Heaven Emperor.
Today's opening ceremony was likely to decide their fates.
Currently, it was filled with guests and Broad Creed Mountain had opened its doors. Yan Zhaoge, Yan Di and the others seemed to be welcoming the most glorious moment of their lifeforce to date.
Yet, this might also be the most dangerous moment of their lifetimes!
The presiding over the ceremony, Yan Di, was just about to speak when his gaze suddenly focused slightly as his gaze seemed to penetrate through the building, gazing outwards.
Yan Zhaoge and the Southeastern Exalt Cao Jie both did the same.
Powerful auras were currently rapidly approaching from the northeast of the Royal Reed Sea.
