When Yan Zhaoge arrived at the foot of Vast Spirit Mountain, many people were already gathered there.
As the owner of this place, the Lord of Vast Spirit Mountain, Daoist East Spring, was currently in high spirits.
The leaders of most powers of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range, including some renowned solitary practitioners, were currently gathered at Vast Spirit Mountain.
Before today, they might not have obeyed the orders of Vast Spirit Mountain.
The conflict between the Night Magnificence Sect and Vast Spirit Mountain had given the other powers of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range a great deal of freedom, being able to benefit from both sides.
While those who were easily swayed were the most hated, they would actually offend both sides.
Still, before the Night Magnificence Sect and Vast Spirit Mountain's victory was decided, they still needed to obtain the support of the majority.
Still, it seemed like their good days were finally coming to an end.
Vast Spirit Mountain grasped this chance, borrowing the momentum of Phoenix Ritual Mountain's Wutong Slope to seize the initiative.
With the Night Magnificence Sect falling behind, it would be extremely difficult for them to seize this chance again.
The other sects of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range might not be willing to lower their heads to Vast Spirit Mountain. Still, with Wutong Slope's experts personally coming to the alliance meet, they could only come obediently.
Vast Spirit Mountain had made use of this to establish their momentum, vaguely having the air of the alliance lord of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range.
The Chief of the Night Magnificence Sect was in death seclusion. Still, in order not to offend Wutong Slope, some experts of their sect had also hurried over to Vast Spirit Mountain.
This made it feel like they were lowering their heads.
It was just that the Night Magnificence Sect had no choice but to swallow this as they could only grit their teeth and swallow it.
Looking at the high-spirited Daoist East Spring, the Elder of the Night Magnificence Sect felt indescribably despondent.
However bad his mood was, the mood of those of Vast Spirit Mountain was just as good.
"Thank you, fellow daoists, for coming here today." Sitting on the host's seat, Daoist East Spring smiled, "There is no other purpose in this alliance meet. Everyone should know that a martial practitioner of the southeast called Yan Zhaoge has come to the eastern region of our southern Blazing Heaven Territory."
"This person once killed a personal disciple of Wutong Slope in the past, committing a heinous crime that even death cannot wipe out. It is just that this person is slippery and crafty, and we have not been able to find a chance to kill him before this."
"This time, he sought his own death by coming to our southern Blazing Heaven Territory. All martial practitioners of our south should strive to be the first to kill him. Only then can the souls of the dead be comforted in heaven."
Daoist East Spring looked around, "This is the reason why I've invited everyone here. Other than our fellow daoists of Announcing Peace Mountain, there's also Mister Yuan of Phoenix Ritual Mountain's Wutong Slope, and Mister Zhao of Bright Connection Sea's Purple Tide Sword Sect."
On the seat of honor sat an old man with white hair. He had a stern aura, and scarlet spiritual energy circulated all over his body like flames.
The old man's pupils were not as turbid as those of an ordinary old man. Instead, they were extremely clear. At the same time, there was a faint image of a phoenix flapping its wings and soaring in the sky.
He looked even older than Peng He, the Mastiff King, but in fact, he was younger than Peng He.
This person was named Yuan Xiancheng, nicknamed 'Phoenix Pupils'. He was the eldest personal disciple of the Southern Exalt Zhuang Shen who was renowned throughout the entire World beyond Worlds.
In the past, before the South and Southeast completely fell out with each other, they often fought in the dark.
The main forces of both sides were the head disciple of the southeast, Long Hanhua who had been surnamed Lin, and this head disciple of the south, 'Phoenix Pupils' Yuan Xiancheng.
Below Yuan Xiancheng sat a purple-clothed, middle-aged man.
This purple-clothed man was not a martial practitioner of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range. Instead, he was the Chief of the Purple Tide Sword Sect, Zhao Zhen, a major power of the Bright Connection Sea to the south of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range.
Having come to the eastern part of the southern Blazing Heaven Territory, Yan Zhaoge could only return to the southeast via Circumference Mountain.
In order to enter Circumference Mountain, one had to pass through the Announcing Peace Mountain Range.
This Zhao Zhen had always been on good terms with Yuan Xiancheng. When Yuan Xiancheng had come to the Announcing Peace Mountain Range to organize people to capture and obstruct Yan Zhaoge, Zhao Zhen had come along to help as well.
He wore a smile on his face as he sat there, not speaking a single word. He only nodded in acknowledgement when Daoist East Spring introduced him.
While he seemed inconspicuous, all the martial practitioners of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range present, Daoist East Spring included, dared not underestimate him.
This person was in charge of the Purple Tide Sword Sect, virtually reigning over the Bright Connection Sea as he was a hegemon of the entire southern Blazing Heaven Territory.
"Everyone here possesses shocking martial prowess. Naturally, Mister Yuan and Mister Zhao need not be mentioned." Daoist East Spring continued, "If we manage to obstruct that scum surnamed Yan, he will naturally have no choice but to obediently surrender."
"Still, everyone knows that the terrain of our Announcing Peace Mountain Range is too complex, making it easy for people to conceal themselves. Trying to find a single person would be no different from searching for a needle in the ocean."
"We martial practitioners who have lived here for many generations are naturally familiar with this place. Still, in order to capture that Yan Zhaoge, we will have to unite and act as one," Daoist East Spring said, "A snake cannot do without a head.
Daoist East Spring said, "A snake can't live without a head. Fortunately, Wutong Slope's Mister Yuan has specially left Circumference Mountain to come here, allowing all of us to follow a unified command."
While he said this, the other local martial practitioners of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range all scoffed inwardly.
While Yuan Xiancheng could certainly lead the command, he was not familiar with the geography of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range.
The actual execution of this command would definitely still be carried out by the local martial practitioners of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range.
That would be him, Daoist East Spring.
It was just that Yuan Xiancheng had clearly already tacitly allowed Daoist East Spring to borrow the might of a tiger. The Night Magnificence Sect and the other powers could only accept this.
Still, it could only be imagined how stifled they felt.
"As the host, this humble Daoist invited all our fellow Daoists here for the sake of discussing a matter that will prevent that Yan Zhaoge from coming," While Daoist East Spring was naturally feeling pleased with himself, he did not show it on his face in the least.
If he was too pleased with himself and made Yuan Xiancheng unhappy, things would be troublesome then.
Therefore, even facing an Elder of the Night Magnificence Sect, Daoist East Spring did not act overbearingly in the least.
He definitely did not act on his own, instead brainstorming with everyone before handing the decision to Phoenix Ritual Mountain's Wutong Slope's Yuan Xiancheng.
Anyway, as long as most of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range martial practitioners came to participate in this alliance meet, his Vast Spirit Mountain would already have the greatest advantage.
Everything had originally been progressing smoothly. Suddenly, Yuan Xiancheng knit his white brows.
Seeing this, Daoist East Spring was taken aback as he thought that he had offended Yuan Xiancheng somehow.
Before he could ponder the reason, his connection with the guardian grand formation allowed him to discover that an uninvited guest was actually approaching Vast Spirit Mountain.
At virtually the same time, a voice resounded.
"Broad Creed Mountain's Yan Zhaoge has come to pay a visit. Is the host present?"
Instantly, the great hall which had still been filled with various thoughts a moment ago fell completely silent.
Everyone exchanged looks, doubting whether they had heard wrongly.
"The person outside calls himself … Yan Zhaoge?"
"That Broad Creed Mountain's Yan Zhaoge?"
"He has come to Vast Spirit Mountain of his own accord?"
While there was no commotion here, the gazes with which everyone exchanged were clearly filled with disbelief.
Daoist East Spring shot up from his seat with a 'whoosh'.
