The leaders of the two factions walked to the foot of Fang Mountain, each with about 40 people. They stopped some distance away from each other.
"General Tie Xue, are you in charge of this meeting?" Princess Qian You smiled as she held a fan in her hand.
General Tie Xue's expression was solemn as he looked at the people opposite him. "The meeting on Fang Mountain is an important matter between two empires. How can I make the decision? Wait for the Governor of my empire to arrive before we begin."
"Oh?" Princess Qian You's expression turned serious. The people behind Princess Qian You also looked serious.
"I didn't expect the Governor of the Great Yu Empire to come. I've admired you for a long time," Princess Qian You said solemnly. There was a sincere respect in her voice.
It wasn't just Princess Qian You. The people behind her all looked respectful.
Zhong Shan, who was in a large tent not far away, frowned.
The Governor of the Great Yu Empire? What kind of person was that? Respect, yes, it was respect. How could someone from an enemy empire feel such respect? How charismatic must this Governor be?
Zhong Shan knew how powerful General Tie Xue was. The powerhouses at the Body Integration Stage from before were all his subordinates, and all of them had absolute faith in General Tie Xue. When Princess Qian You faced General Tie Xue, she was still calm and at ease. However, when she heard the Governor's name, her expression turned serious.
The Governor of the Great Yu Empire?
"Is the Governor of the Great Yu Empire very powerful?" Nan Batian whispered to Shui Wuhen.
Zhong Shan was also listening attentively. He was clearly curious about the Governor of the Great Yu Empire.
"The Governor of the Great Yu Empire isn't very powerful, but he is very powerful," Shui Wuhen said.
"Huh?" Nan Batian was puzzled. Not very powerful? But very powerful? What did that mean?
"The Governor of the Great Yu Empire is called Yi Yan. His cultivation is only at the Nascent Soul Stage, but his position in the Great Yu Empire is irreplaceable. His prestige in the Great Yu Empire's army is comparable to that of the Great Yu Emperor, "Shui Wuhen explained.
"You're saying that Yi Yan is only at the Nascent Soul Stage?" Nan Batian looked incredulous.
"Yes, they're here!" Shui Wuhen pointed into the distance.
Sure enough, everyone at the foot of Fang Mountain quieted down and looked at the black dot in the sky that was growing bigger and bigger.
Princess Qian You's side of the Daluo Celestial Empire was waiting quietly with respect in their eyes. Almost everyone in the opposing army had looks of worship on their faces. Even the commander of the Great Yu Empire's First Legion, General Tie Xue, was clenching his fists in excitement.
The black dot in the distance was getting closer and closer. Slowly, Zhong Shan saw what it was.
It was a large palanquin, a palanquin the size of a house. There were sixteen palanquin bearers, each carrying a large rafter. They stepped on the white clouds and carried the large palanquin very carefully. The sixteen sedan-bearers were all at the Nascent Soul stage. These experts were at the level of sect masters on Celestial Wolf Island, but here, they were merely sedan-bearers?
Of course, Zhong Shan knew that only Yi Yan could use Nascent Soul experts as sedan-bearers.
When the sedan-bearers flew, not only did they stabilize the palanquin, but they also used their own techniques to envelop the palanquin in a shield of air. This prevented the palanquin from being blown by the astral winds and was extremely stable.
This Yi Yan was too ostentatious!
Slowly, the large palanquin landed at the foot of Fang Mountain in front of everyone.
When the palanquin landed, the sixteen Nascent Soul sedan-bearers quickly stood at the door of the palanquin in a respectful manner.
Princess Qian You and her group didn't move when they saw the palanquin land. This was because they represented the Daluo Celestial Empire.
General Tie Xue quickly ran to the palanquin. When he arrived in front of the palanquin, he didn't lift the curtains. Instead, he stood quietly in front of the palanquin. He waited for the curtains to open by themselves.
From afar, Zhong Shan could see that the palanquin was extremely luxurious. Even the roof of the palanquin was filled with gigantic luminous pearls. A few days ago, Zhong Shan had seen these Night Luminescent Pearls in Wushuang City's market. Even the smallest one was worth 20,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones.
The sedan door was half a person's height above the ground.
"Governor!" General Tie Xue called out softly.
"Cough ~ ~ ~ Cough cough ~ ~ ~ Cough cough ~ ~ ~ Cough cough cough ~ ~ ~ ~"
Within the palanquin, a series of hurried coughs could be heard. The sound was extremely heavy, as if it was the sound of someone who had been ill for many years.
"Cough ~ ~ ~ Cough cough ~ ~ ~ Cough cough ~ ~ ~ Cough cough cough ~ ~ ~ ~"
"Cough ~ ~ ~ Cough cough ~ ~ ~ Cough cough ~ ~ ~ Cough cough cough ~ ~ ~ ~"
The army was silent, waiting for the person in the palanquin to cough. At this moment, no one had the slightest complaint. They were all waiting for the person in the palanquin to cough without complaint or regret.
Zhong Shan looked on from the side, his eyes full of shock. The person who was coughing must be Yi Yan. However, why did Yi Yan's body seem to be at its limit? How could he cough non-stop on such a solemn occasion?
However, this long cough didn't arouse any disgust from anyone. General Tie Xue's group looked worried, while no one from the Daluo Heaven Dynasty showed a mocking expression.
How high must his prestige be to make the army wait like this?
Finally, after coughing for nearly half an incense stick's time, the interior of the palanquin looked much better.
Gently, a girl who looked like a servant girl lifted the curtains of the palanquin, causing the door to open wide. Then, she slowly supported a thin old man from the inside.
The old man's face was extremely haggard, but his pair of eyes revealed a bright light of wisdom. With the help of the servant girl, he slowly walked to the door of the palanquin.
Looking at the old man in front of him, Zhong Shan revealed a trace of shock. Was Yi Yan at the Nascent Soul stage? How could he be so weak? Old and close to death, with one foot in the grave? He seemed to be even weaker than himself in the past.
Yi Yan walked to the door of the palanquin, but the edge of the door was half a person's height from the ground. Unless a stool was placed on it, it would be difficult for Yi Yan to walk down steadily.
At this moment, General Tie Xue suddenly walked forward and knelt down horizontally. His head was on the ground, and his back was used as a stool for Yi Yan.
Seeing this scene, Zhong Shan was shocked. General Tie Xue was the commander of the Great Yu Empire's first army, and he was actually using him as a stool? No, he was doing this willingly, because if General Tie Xue was a little unwilling, he could have used someone else as a stool. However, General Tie Xue knelt without any complaints or regrets, and he was willing to let this old and dying Yi Yan step on his back as he slowly walked down.
Yi Yan stepped on General Tie Xue's back as he walked down. The servant girl didn't dare to step on General Tie Xue, but she stepped into the air to support Yi Yan. It could be seen that this servant girl was at least at the Nascent Soul stage.
Yi Yan got down from the palanquin. A gentle breeze blew past Yi Yan, and his thin figure seemed like it could be blown away at any moment. The servant girl supported Yi Yan tightly.
Gently, Yi Yan pushed away the servant girl's hand and stood alone in the wind, looking around.
Seeing that Yi Yan didn't let her support him, the servant girl could only stand behind him respectfully.
General Tie Xue quickly stood up, not caring about the dust on his knees at all. It was as if he hadn't seen it, and he quickly bowed to Yi Yan. "Greetings, Governor."
"Greetings, Governor." All the soldiers of the Great Yu Empire bowed respectfully. All of them were sincere, and no one hesitated.
Yi Yan, on the other hand, only nodded slightly.
He slowly walked towards Princess Qian You and the others at the foot of Fang Mountain.
"Greetings, Mister Yi Yan," Princess Qian You said.
"Mm, Princess Qian You, I've heard a lot about you." Yi Yan also smiled.
"This junior wouldn't dare. It's my honor to have senior here at the Fang Mountain Conference," Princess Qian You said.
"Princess Qian You is too polite. Please!" Yi Yan said softly, and gestured for her to enter.
"Please." Princess Qian You also gestured for him to enter.
Princess Qian You and Yi Yan walked at the front, and the leaders of the other two factions respectfully followed behind.
Yi Yan walked very slowly, and it was very difficult for him. It was as if he didn't have the strength to climb Fang Mountain. However, Yi Yan didn't let anyone help him, and he persisted on walking. Everyone behind him respectfully waited, and no one showed any impatience. Because he was Yi Yan.
Fang Mountain was three hundred meters tall, and everyone climbed for half an incense stick's worth of time, but no one was impatient.
On Fang Mountain, Zhong Shan couldn't see the figures of the people at the top from his angle, but Zhong Shan's heart was in turmoil.
Yi Yan? What kind of person was this?
Nan Batian, who was beside him, also watched with his mouth agape, his face full of disbelief. How could there be such a person? Wasn't this too exaggerated?
Zhong Shan's tent was not far from another tent.
There were three people standing in the tent, and one was kneeling on the ground. The one kneeling was Mo Yanbing's subordinate, Xiao San, and one of the three standing was Mo Yanbing.
Mo Yanbing looked at Xiao San in front of him, and his eyes flashed with joy.
"Young master, that Zhong Shan is in the tent on the left. I saw him with my own eyes." Xiao San said respectfully.
"Good, since he's delivered himself to my doorstep, then watch carefully. When the Fang Mountain Conference ends, see how I'll deal with him." Mo Yanbing said in a low voice.
"Young master, what about Shui Wuhen? He might interfere. "Xiao San said with a trace of worry.
"I'll have to trouble you two." Mo Yanbing looked at the two people beside him and smiled.
"Brother Mo, you're too polite. With the two of us, we can definitely stop Shui Wuhen. He won't dare to kill us. However, I'm curious. How did that Zhong Shan offend you?" One of the people beside Mo Yanbing asked curiously.
Looking at that person, Mo Yanbing frowned. It was obvious that the last time was too embarrassing, and he didn't want to talk about it.
"The two of you, I don't want to talk about what happened that day." Mo Yanbing shook his head.
Looking at Mo Yanbing, the two of them knew they couldn't ask any more questions. They nodded, and one of them said, "Brother Mo, don't worry."
