Liu Xiangtong did not understand what had happened that day.
When Mars Halberd had destroyed the Minor No Hatred dao arena, Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting had been there.
While they had avoided a tribulation, they had mistakenly entered the territory of the Immortal Court as a result.
After destroying the Minor No Hatred dao arena, Mars Halberd had not left as he had instead remained where he was, silently awaiting the Brocade Emperor's return.
Still, for some reason, the Brocade Emperor had not returned.
Mars Halberd remained where he was, waiting for a full seven days yet not seeing the Brocade Emperor appear.
Instead, the other experts of the World beyond Worlds had arrived.
No conflict had erupted between the two sides. Still, Mars Halberd had not accepted the mediation of others as he had wholeheartedly wanted to find the descendant of the Grand Clear lineage who had helped the dragon race seal him back then, settling things once and for all.
After Daoist Xuanzhong had perished, his descendant, the Brocade Emperor, had surpassed him as he had become Mars Halberd's target.
As the Brocade Emperor had not appeared, Mars Halberd had not made things difficult for those of Ingenious Flying Peak.
Still, he had temporarily changed his target as he had set his sights on another direct lineage of the Grand Clear lineage in the World beyond Worlds.
Southeastern Yang Heaven Territory, Golden Court Mountain.
In the end, when he had arrived at Golden Court Mountain, the Brocade Emperor had finally appeared.
While the battle between two Emperor-titled experts was not enough to destroy the World beyond Worlds, it would definitely cause severe damage to the vast regions of the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory.
Mars Halberd did not mind leaving the World beyond Worlds with the Brocade Emperor and battling in extradimensional space.
Finally, beneath the mediation of other experts of the World beyond Worlds, the two sides had arranged for a new date for their battle.
Today just happened to be the day of the battle between the Brocade Emperor and Mars Halberd.
Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting exchanged glances, both seeing the worry in each other's eyes.
With the Brocade Emperor having been obstructed by Mars Halberd, would the Heaven Emperor attack the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory once more?
With the Brocade Emperor not having appeared previously and unable to ascertain where he was, the Heaven Emperor would not act lightly.
Without absolute confidence of victory, he would not directly fall out with him.
Even when Mars Halberd had provocatively waited for seven days at the ruins of the Minor No Hatred dao arena, the Heaven Emperor could not be certain that the Brocade Emperor was truly not present.
Perhaps he had been guarding against him, which was why he had tolerated Mars Halberd?
Only when Mars Halberd had attacked Golden Court Mountain and the Brocade Emperor had appeared did the Heaven Emperor finally have a chance to act.
This was because the Brocade Emperor would definitely not be in the World beyond Worlds on the day of the battle.
Jade Mountain Sect's Chief Liu Xiangtong was currently observing Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting.
Seeing the exchange of gazes between Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting, Liu Xiangtong's heart involuntarily pounded.
This Yan Zhaoge is actually so familiar with the daughter of the Brocade Emperor?
Even if the Brocade Emperor was on very good terms with the Southeastern Exalt, and it was rumoured that the Southeastern Exalt took great care of Yan Zhaoge, this did not mean that the Brocade Emperor would definitely view Yan Zhaoge in a different light.
Of course, Yan Zhaoge was indeed shockingly talented.
Looking at Yan Zhaoge at this moment, Liu Xiangtong felt his heart beating wildly.
This was no longer an astonishing talent, but a frightening genius.
Why did this young man before him seem to be a late Seeing Divinity Martial Saint?
His eyesight shouldn't be so bad that he was seeing things, right?
But upon further observation, his true age seemed to be less than forty?
A late Seeing Divinity Martial Saint who was not even forty years old?!
Liu Xiangtong's vision darkened, and he almost fainted.
He was younger than Fu Ting, but his cultivation was higher than Fu Ting's!
What did this mean?
While Liu Xiangtong could be considered to be rather knowledgeable, there was only a single thought in his mind at this moment, "Either I have misjudged his cultivation base or he has concealed his true age, misleading others …"
Still, Liu Xiangtong still felt that even if Yan Zhaoge had faked his age, his talent was still shocking.
Thinking about it this way, even the Brocade Emperor favoured him greatly, this did not seem to be something hard to accept at all?
Liu Xiangtong's gaze fell on Fu Ting as he wondered, "Speaking of this, there has yet to be any news of this Grand Red Lotus having any affairs between a man and a woman up till now. Could it be …"
While there was no jealousy or hatred, looking at Yan Zhaoge, Liu Xiangtong could not help but sigh inwardly, "What good karma indeed. It is said that he possesses the Immortal Artifact left behind by the Dim Radiant Emperor and has also obtained the favour of the Brocade Emperor and his daughter. His talent is outstanding as well. He is definitely going to soar to the heavens in the World beyond Worlds!"
Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting had not thought that so many thoughts would be running through the mind of this Chief of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm, Liu Xiangtong.
The two were both focused on the possible influence that this battle between the Brocade Emperor and Mars Halberd might bring.
Yan Zhaoge pondered for a moment before cupping his hands towards Liu Xiangtong, "Chief Liu, there is something that this Yan does not understand. I wonder if Chief Liu knows the reason for this?"
Liu Xiangtong regained his wits, "Please speak, Young Master Yan."
Yan Zhaoge asked, "Mars Halberd intentionally challenged the Brocade Emperor and agreed not to fight in the World beyond Worlds, instead changing the battlefield to extradimensional space. This is easy to understand. Still, why did he agree to another time?"
Having just asked Liu Xiangtong about the current days in the World beyond Worlds, Yan Zhaoge already knew that he and Fu Ting had still spent quite a bit of time finding their way back from the Immortal Court.
It had been far more than seven days since they had escaped from the Minor No Hatred dao arena.
Mars Halberd had waited for seven days at the ruins of the Minor No Hatred dao arena, not seeing the Brocade Emperor return. He had rushed to the World beyond Worlds' Golden Court Mountain, where the Brocade Emperor had finally appeared to obstruct him.
Still, the two had set the date of their battle to be today, more than a month having passed since then.
Fu Ting asked, "Chief Liu, do you know which Majesties are currently guarding the World beyond Worlds?"
Liu Xiangtong nodded towards Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting, "This Liu is not clear on the reason. Still, Mars Halberd did indeed agree to set the date for today."
"In the World beyond Worlds, from what I know, the Concealed Sovereign and the Female Emperor are still present. The other Majesties seem to be absent. Still, this Liu only heard this from others and cannot be certain."
The Concealed Sovereign was the most mysterious of the Three Sovereigns as he was in secluded cultivation all year round.
The last time he had appeared was several hundred years ago.
Battles between Emperors were very rare. Generally speaking, Sovereigns would most likely mediate between them.
Still, no one had ever seen the Concealed Sovereign do something like this.
The Concealed Sovereign had indeed not appeared in the storm stirred up by Mars Halberd this time.
Meanwhile, the Female Emperor had always been a lone wolf as she rarely participated in the affairs of others.
Just like the Concealed Sovereign, the Female Emperor had not appeared in the battle between Mars Halberd and the Brocade Emperor this time, expressing no opinion at all.
Liu Xiangtong said, "The Earthly Sovereign and the Sword Sovereign seem to have not been in the World beyond Worlds all this time. It was the Encompassing Emperor and the Earth Exalt who mediated between them before the Brocade Emperor and Mars Halberd finally agreed to battle today."
The Encompassing Emperor, also known as the Encompassing Emperor, was one of the Five Emperors alongside the Brocade Emperor, the Female Emperor and the Heaven Emperor. He was similarly a bigwig who had pushed open the door to Immortality many years ago.
The Earth Exalt was a personal disciple of the Earthly Sovereign who was one of the Ten Exalts alongside Cao Jie, Zhuang Shen and Liu Zhenggu.
The so-called Ten Exalts referred to the eight directions, up and down.
Still, the World beyond Worlds habitually referred to Lesser Exalts as the 'Earth Exalt'.
Yan Zhaoge asked, "Then, after the date of the battle was set, the Encompassing Emperor and the Earth Exalt both left the World beyond Worlds?"
Liu Xiangtong said, "That's right."
