Whoosh! "
Just as Ba Yan carried Xiao Chen on his back and prepared to leave, two figures flashed out of the messy second floor.
If Xiao Chen were still here, he would definitely recognize these two people. They were the two figures he saw at the city gates that day.
One of them was Zhao Feng, the descendant of the Divine Eye Sovereign, who was ranked second among the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea. The other person was Sima Lingxuan, the most famous and dazzling outstanding young talent in the Black Sea.
This was especially so after Sima Lingxuan's adoptive father, Zong Boxiong, advanced to Sovereign Martial Emperor. Sima Lingxuan's status soared, no one able to compete with him.
These two were the organizers of this gathering. They had arrived long ago for the sake of waiting for a certain person. However, they did not show themselves.
Who would have thought that the gathering would turn out like this? It was truly unexpected.
The person they were waiting for did not show up. Instead, such a person showed up, brandishing a saber and beating up the crowd.
"Indeed, it is you!"
Sima Lingxuan said through clenched teeth as he looked in the direction Xiao Chen and Ba Yan had left in. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
When Sima Lingxuan heard the name of the White Robed Bladesman in the city, he had suspected that it was that Xiao Chen. Now that he saw it for himself, he confirmed his guess.
Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for ten years, Xiao Chen was still so strong. Compared to the Sky Dome Realm's Five Nation Youth Competition, he was still as elegant as before, inspiring an unparalleled feeling.
If news of this scene spread, the name of the White Robed Bladesman Xiao Chen would resound throughout the entire Dark City, surpassing Sima Lingxuan once again.
It would be just like the Five Nation Youth Competition back then, when Xiao Chen suddenly rose up and completely overshadowed Sima Lingxuan's glory.
You are coming to participate in the Outstanding Talent Summit Meeting as well? Very good. I have waited for this day for a long time!
A resolute expression flashed in Sima Lingxuan's eyes as he thought to himself. Only then did he slowly calm down.
Zhao Feng, who was at the side, did not notice Sima Lingxuan's strange expression. He looked at the many Great Bandits lying on the ground, snoring loudly. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Those present were all famous geniuses of the Dark City. To think that an outsider would cause them to be in such a sorry state.
Of course, part of the reason was that the strength of these geniuses had greatly decreased after drinking the wine. However, Xiao Chen's strength was undeniable. It could only be described with one word — powerful!
At least, Zhao Feng thought that if he met Xiao Chen, his chances of winning wouldn't exceed 50%.
However, he was still confident that if he ran into Xiao Chen at the Genius's Summit, he would still be the one to emerge victorious.
"It's a pity that Huang Yun still hasn't shown up. That guy has been gone for three years. I bet he's already forgotten about the Geniuses Summit Meeting!"
Zhao Feng quietly said.
That's right, the purpose of this summit was to force Huang Yun out. Even though the descendant of the top pirate of the Black Sea, the Blood Shark Sovereign, had been gone for three years, he still remained a burden in Zhao Feng and Sima Lingxuan's hearts.
Sima Lingxuan said calmly, "It is indeed unfortunate. However, the unfortunate person is you, Zhao Feng!"
"What do you mean?"
Sima Lingxuan revealed a mocking expression as he said indifferently, "Haha! Unfortunately, your strength has not improved at all. You will still lose to me this time. Did you not notice that that person is already here?"
Zhao Feng's expression changed, and the light in his eyes began to rapidly change. An azure whirlpool of light began to spin in the depths of his eyes.
A blurry scarlet figure appeared in Zhao Feng's vision. The scarlet figure flickered and quickly vanished from his vision, quickly changing directions.
"Whoosh!"
A figure appeared on the second floor of the Conflagration Restaurant. This figure wore yellow robes and carried a scarlet saber on his back. His eyes were slightly red. This was the Blood Shark Sovereign's descendant, Huang Yun.
"He's back!"
Some of the martial practitioners who were watching from a high vantage point revealed horrified expressions when they saw the yellow figure, appearing to be extremely panic-stricken.
The Blood Shark Sovereign's descendant, Huang Yun!
Three years ago, Huang Yun was the absolute overlord of the younger generation of Dark City. After he left, Sima Lingxuan and Zhao Feng slowly rose to fame.
This was especially so for Sima Lingxuan. He rose very quickly, already showing signs of surpassing Huang Yun.
Now that Huang Yun returned, returning before the Outstanding Talent Summit Meeting, there would definitely be a fierce battle at this Outstanding Talent Summit Meeting.
First, there was the strong appearance of the White Robed Bladesman, beating up the outstanding talents in a drunken state. Then, there were the cultivators from the Outer Sea, stirring up trouble and eyeing covetously.
Then, there were the veteran overlords returning to Dark City. It would be difficult not to look forward to this Outstanding Talent Summit Meeting.
"After not coming for three years, the Great Bandits of Dark City seem to have weakened again."
Huang Yun glanced at the drunk outstanding talent lying on the ground and frowned slightly. He did not hide his disdain at all.
Huang Yun raised his head and looked between Zhao Feng and Sima Lingxuan. Finally, he fixed his gaze on Sima Lingxuan's face.
"The two of you are pretty good. Three years ago, I predicted that you would rise up. However, I did not expect you to rise up so quickly. However, you have a Demon in your heart. If you do not get rid of it, you will find it hard to advance. You are not worthy of being my opponent. "
Sima Lingxuan's heart sank. Three years had passed, but this Huang Yun was still as strong as before. He could see through Sima Lingxuan's weakness with one glance.
Sima Lingxuan's Demon was Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen had killed Sima Lingxuan's father and once trampled on him. If Sima Lingxuan did not defeat Xiao Chen, he would find it hard to undergo a true transformation.
However …
"A Demon can be a shackle or a motivation. If you really think that, you will suffer a miserable defeat at the Outstanding Talent Summit Meeting."
A strong fighting spirit appeared in Sima Lingxuan's eyes. He did not fear this returning overlord.
Huang Yun smiled faintly, still feeling confident. "You are not a match for me."
"In that case, how about I be your opponent?!"
Just as Sima Lingxuan was about to reply, a voice suddenly rang out on the second floor. A figure with a strong aura charged over, knocking away many cultivators peeking around before landing heavily on the ground.
This person's eyes appeared somewhat chaotic, and his skin seemed like metal, flickering with a faint luster. Clearly, he was not of the human race or the Fiend Race bloodline, looking extremely strange.
This was a mixed-blood of humans and Demons, possessing the bloodlines of both humans and High-Ranked Iron Demons.
"It's him, Mo Ran! He is one of the cultivators from the outer sea who caused the most trouble in Dark City recently. "
"Since he is here, then the Ice Sea's Leng Xin and the Storm Sea's Ouyang Feng will definitely be here as well!"
"This is the true gathering. This is just the beginning."
The moment this person appeared, many cultivators immediately recognized him. He was the Human-Demon Sea's young expert, Mo Ran. "Whoosh!
Whoosh! "
A strong wind blew, and two men appeared on the second floor one after another. One of them was tall and exuded a strong aura. This was the Storm Sea's Ouyang Feng. The other had a frosty expression, looking cold and emotionless. This was the Ice Sea's Leng Xin.
The true gathering of outstanding talents had just begun. These words were not wrong at all.
The five people here represented the strongest outstanding talents in Dark City. Including Xiao Chen and Ba Yan, who left, the strongest outstanding talents were all here.
Huang Yun revealed a cruel smile and said, "Dark City's Outstanding Talent Summit Meeting has never benefited outsiders before. With me, Huang Yun, around, you will not be able to break this record."
"Is that so? Let's see how capable you are! "
The Human-Demon Sea's Mo Ran smiled coldly as he charged over. Mo Ran's body flickered with light, looking like he had a body of steel. He was heavy and sturdy, and every step he took produced loud bangs.
Mo Ran was like a running mountain. His aura was startling and unparalleled berserk as he punched.
Huang Yun narrowed his eyes, and his slightly red eyes turned completely scarlet. He did not draw his saber but also sent a punch.
"Bang!"
The two fists clashed, producing a loud, ear-splitting sound. The two each took ten steps back, and the entire Conflagration Restaurant shook continuously.
Huang Yun, who carried the scarlet saber on his back, said coldly, "You are merely so-so. With just this bit of ability, you cannot force me to draw my saber."
The expressions of the Storm Sea's Ouyang Feng and the Ice Sea's Leng Xin changed slightly. Huang Yun was indeed somewhat scarily strong. As a bladesman, Huang Yun actually used his fist to receive Mo Ran's move. If Huang Yun had used his saber, the result would have been different.
"You had best not come to the Outstanding Talent Summit Meeting half a month from now. Otherwise, if you lose too miserably, don't blame me for not showing mercy."
The boundlessly tyrannical Huang Yun left behind these words. Then, a scarlet light flashed as he left the Conflagration Restaurant.
"How arrogant! Do you think that this is all my trump card?" Mo Ran was not convinced at all. He pushed off the ground and charged forward fearlessly again.
Now, only four people remained.
Sima Lingxuan glanced at the other two foreign cultivators. A fierce fighting spirit blazed in his eyes as he said, "Since you are already here, it would be a pity if you only exchange one or two moves."
"That is precisely the case," the Storm Sea's Ouyang Feng and the Ice Sea's Leng Xin said at the same time.
A series of probing exchanges quickly took place in the restaurant. Everyone wanted to test each other out. However, no one would expose their trump cards.
Everything would only erupt at the Outstanding Talent Summit Meeting.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was completely drunk and unconscious. He did not know anything about what happened after that. He did not know that a few strong people had arrived after him.
This time, he was completely drunk.
In the Rock Castle:
Ba Yan carried Xiao Chen all the way to his courtyard. The sound startled Yue Bingyun, who was busy repairing the Dragon Subduing Platform.
When Yue Bingyun saw the unconscious, blood-soaked Xiao Chen covered in wounds, her expression changed visibly. Her face turned cold, and a dense murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
The appearance of that murderous intent startled Ba Yan. He found it hard to imagine that the pure and holy Yue Bingyun would have such a horrifying side.
"What's wrong with him? Who injured him?"
Ba Yan quickly explained what happened in the Conflagration Restaurant in detail, dispelling Yue Bingyun's doubts.
"He drank one hundred cups of peak-grade wine in a row!"
Yue Bingyun's murderous intent vanished, and she showed some shock on her face. For a wine to be called peak-grade wine, it would have a strong aftereffect. Even the Blue Robed Emperor could not drink too much.
Drinking one hundred cups like Xiao Chen was simply unheard of. Even Emperor Wu did not dare to do so.
After that, Xiao Chen's actions were even crazier. He beat up the outstanding talents while drunk, fighting alone against so many outstanding talents. He was truly drunk.
If it were the rational Xiao Chen, he would not have done such a crazy thing.
"That is what happened. Don't blame me for not helping out at that time. It was so chaotic. I was afraid that it would become even more chaotic after I went in. I'll leave it to you."
