(PS: Today's update is late, please forgive me.)
Seven days later, instead of waiting for the Brocade Emperor, someone else arrived.
Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di had originally been in the midst of cultivating when Fu Ting came to visit.
Fu Ting's expression was a little awkward, but it was mostly solemn.
"My father hasn't returned yet. Please don't blame me for neglecting you and your father." Fu Ting said, "There are some matters here at the Minor No Hatred dao arena, it might not be good to continue keeping you father and son here."
Yan Di and Yan Zhaoge exchanged looks.
The first thought that flashed through their minds was, could it be that the Heaven Emperor had actually invited one of the Three Sovereigns to make a move, actually causing the Brocade Emperor to be hard pressed to resist and forced to retreat?
Or was it that the hot potato that was the Dim Radiant Wheel in Yan Zhaoge's possession had caused such a huge disaster so quickly that all of Ingenious Flying Peak actually wanted to send Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di off on their own?
Fu Ting clearly knew that her current actions were inappropriate, but she seemed to have something she couldn't say, so she didn't say much.
She retrieved a brocade box, handing it to Yan Di, "My father left behind a letter. If he never returns and the two of you are in a hurry to leave, then this treasure is to be delivered to him as an apology."
"Due to the special circumstances at the moment, it is not convenient for the dojo to continue receiving the two of you. Please forgive us."
Receiving the brocade box, Yan Di was in no hurry to open it as he said calmly, "Us father and son have been troubling you over the past few days as well. We understand that the Brocade Emperor is busy with matters."
"Still, please forgive this Yan for asking, but does this matter have something to do with the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory?"
Fu Ting sighed, "Chief Yan worries too much. This matter has nothing to do with the Heaven Emperor, the Southern Exalt, the Southeastern Exalt or the embryonic Immortal Artifact in Young Master Yan's hands."
"My father has indeed gone out for some business, but it's a private matter. Right now, the dojo is dealing with another matter that has nothing to do with the two of you. It's just that it's not convenient for me to continue entertaining you."
Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di both felt curious.
If it was not related to the matter of the Heaven Emperor and the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory, if it was not related to the Dim Radiant Wheel, then the current situation would truly be strange.
"From the looks of it, why does it seem like there might be a calamity here at the Minor No Hatred Dao Rite? Ingenious Flying Peak has good intentions, not wanting to implicate us and be implicated?"
Yan Zhaoge was rather taken aback.
Still, since Fu Ting was unwilling to say more, Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di did not continue asking about it.
The other party was very likely doing this out of good intentions, and also being very courteous, Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di could only do as the host wished.
The two of them followed Fu Ting out of the palace.
As he walked past the main hall, he saw a group of people standing there.
Some were disciples of Ingenious Flying Peak while others did not look like descendants of the Brocade Emperor's lineage from their attire.
Looking carefully, Yan Zhaoge discovered that they were actually not humans. While they were clad in armour, they had the heads of dragons and bodies of humans!
It was a three-headed Dragon Race!
If these three dragons were to be measured using the cultivation bases of human martial practitioners, they would shockingly all be experts of the Immortal Bridge stage.
All of them were brimming with energy and strength. Their innate dragon bodies were even stronger than the humans.
As he inhaled and exhaled, the might of a dragon overflowed, causing other living beings to be unable to help but feel the urge to prostrate themselves in worship.
It was just that when they visited the Minor No Hatred dao arena, they intentionally retracted their dragon might to show courtesy.
What Yan Zhaoge paid even more attention to was the fact that these three experts of the dragon race were clearly all feeling very uneasy at this moment as they appeared anxious.
This was an extremely rare thing for the dragon race who had always been orderly and focused on their dignity.
After glancing at Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di, they did not pay too much attention to them as they quickly shifted their gazes away, their gazes falling on Fu Ting.
Fu Ting nodded towards them, "I will speak in detail with you seniors after sending our guests off."
Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di followed Fu Ting out of the palace, Yan Zhaoge gazing back, "Great demons of such cultivation bases are rarely seen in the World beyond Worlds."
Fu Ting said simply, "Following the Great Calamity that year, the dragon race withered. They are indeed rarely seen now."
"Our lineage has some ties with the dragon race that survived the Great Calamity that year. This was a matter of my Great Grand Master's time."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, not speaking.
Fu Ting said, "I will send you back to the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory with the ritual of this dao arena later. I have really been impolite this time …"
Before she had finished speaking, the world of intermingling black and white qis before them actually shook abruptly!
With this, the originally distinct black and white qis instantly became blurry and indistinct, mixing together as yin and yang were indistinguishable.
Fu Ting was shocked, "So fast?!"
The expressions of Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di changed slightly as well.
Having been cultivating in the Minor No Hatred dao arena these past few days, they all knew that this cave manor had been personally established by the Brocade Emperor.
While its stability could not compare to that of Kunlun Mountain's Ingenious Flying Peak's Red Lotus Cliff, it was still far from comparable to ordinary places.
Even if their master, the Brocade Emperor, was not present, wanting to shake this place would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
Yet, the scene before them clearly indicated that someone was attacking the Minor No Hatred dao arena from the outside!
Even worse was the fact that the other party was extremely powerful as it was not impossible for them to break through!
The spiritual qi flow of the dao arena had already been disrupted, its foundation having been shaken.
Fu Ting was shocked but not panicked as she directly retrieved a jade crystal, tossing it into the air before tapping on it with a finger.
The surface of the jade crystal lit up with radiance which established a spirit formation. At the centre of the spirit formation, a hole seemed to be opening up.
The next moment, however, the hole immediately closed up while the spirit formation began distorting. An instant later, it shattered.
Fu Ting frowned, "The enemy's attacks are fierce. The ritual cannot be activated."
Looking at Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di, she shook her head helplessly, "I had originally wanted to send the two of you back to the World beyond Worlds. Still, from the looks of it now, this will not be possible."
Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di exchanged glances, both feeling that this was rather absurd.
From the looks of it, someone had actually really come to find trouble for the Brocade Emperor. In the end, the fish in the moat had been caught in the crossfire.
"Since that is so, please follow me first," Fu Ting said as she led Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di back to the palace.
While the spiritual qi flow of the dao arena had begun to turn chaotic, this was the Brocade Emperor's manor at the end of the day as it would not be so easily breached.
Along the way, Yan Zhaoge smacked his lips, "Now that things have come to this, I wonder if Miss Fu can tell us the details of the situation? We father and son are still completely in the dark as we are completely clueless about what is going on. "
Looking at the palace up ahead, Yan Di asked in a heavy tone, "It is related to those dragons?"
Fu Ting hesitated slightly for a moment before sighing, "It can be said to be related. Still, the enemy is also specifically targeting our lineage."
"Those three seniors of the dragon race rushed over to warn us. Who would have thought that the enemy would arrive so quickly, arriving right after them."
Fu Ting shook her head helplessly, "There are some matters that have to be taken care of in this dao arena. We are unable to leave immediately. I had originally wanted to send the two of you off as well, but in the end, I was actually unable to do so as well."
Yan Zhaoge asked, "Who exactly is it?"
The other party might not know that the Brocade Emperor had gone out, most likely thinking that he was at his manor. This was not an attempt to take advantage of the situation as they had specifically come to target the Brocade Emperor.
The Brocade Emperor was one of the strongest experts of the World beyond Worlds. It was truly out of Yan Zhaoge's expectations that someone would actually dare to cause trouble at his manor.
If it was not the Heaven Emperor, who could it be?
As they were guessing, Fu Ting said in a complex tone, "It is not a person who has come."
