The sunlight shone diagonally on the ground, reflecting clusters of white flowers that looked particularly bright against the green background.
He Yiming focused his mind and calmed his Qi. His heart was calm as if there were no more waves.
As his 2 ears trembled slightly, he heard all the sounds outside the door. He stood up, walked to the door, and opened it.
The moment he pushed the door open, the door opposite him opened almost at the same time. Jin Zhan looked over with his eagle-like eyes.
The 2 of them looked at each other and smiled. At this moment, they seemed to have an unusual tacit understanding.
They stepped out of the room at the same time and walked toward the high tower in the center. They walked side by side, and the auras on their bodies seemed to be slowly changing. Every step they took seemed to have been measured with a ruler, and there was no difference at all. Vaguely, the tacit understanding between them became deeper as if they were the same person.
When they arrived at the high tower in the center, Zhang Zhongyun had been waiting for them for a long time.
He looked at the 2 men in front of him in shock and felt strange. He did not understand when they had become so tacit.
Nevertheless, this was definitely a great thing for today's final battle.
Zhang Zhongyun nodded slightly and led the way, leading them to the seventh floor of the high tower.
Above this floor was a huge martial arts arena, which was also where all the Venerable Ones exchanged martial arts skills.
There was no doubt that the Venerable Ones were mighty. If they went all out in a fight, it would also have a huge impact on the surrounding environment. Despite that, there was a magical power in the high tower. No matter who fought here, they would not be able to cause any damage to the tower. Therefore, the people from the Divine Wind King Palace opened up a huge martial arts arena above the high tower, which was considered to be making the best use of everything.
At this moment, there were already more than 20 people in the arena.
He Yiming looked around and immediately focused on the 3 men in front of him.
Among them, 2 elders were dressed exactly the same. They sat on the chairs with their eyes closed as if they did not react to the outside world at all.
However, when He Yiming's gaze landed on them, the two of them opened their eyes at the same time. Four gazes that contained powerful fighting intent immediately met his gaze.
At this moment, He Yiming even felt a burning pain in his eyeballs.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile as he calmly shifted his gaze away.
Jin Zhan raised his eyebrows, and his sharp gaze shot out like a sharp arrow. The 3 of them looked at each other in mid-air, and the atmosphere in the arena seemed to have become oppressive.
He Yiming frowned slightly and coughed softly.
As if he understood He Yiming's meaning, Jin Zhan smiled and looked away.
Just like this, they went to the opposite of the other people in front of their gazes. He turned a blind eye to the four provocative gazes in front of him, as if these two people did not exist at all.
There was a hint of anger in the eyes of the Qilian Twin Devils. They had been roaming the world for 200 years, and it was rare to see people who ignored them like this.
However, the two of them were veterans who had experienced countless battles. They looked at each other and immediately put away the anger in their hearts. Then, they completely calmed down.
After He Yiming sat down with Jin Zhan, he still calmly looked at the other people on this floor.
Except for the 3 people in front of him, the remaining 20 people were all powerhouses who had reached the One-Line-Sky Realm. Among them, Zhang Zhongyun and Grand Senior Brother Wei Zongjin of the Divine Wind Palace were among them.
After seeing He Yiming's gaze, most of these people showed a smile on their faces. However, He Yiming still saw a lot of doubts in their eyes.
Obviously, many people were not optimistic about him and Jin Zhan, or rather, they were not optimistic about themselves. However, everyone looked at Jin Zhan with confidence.
In the end, He Yiming's gaze fell on the Qilian Twin Devils. However, this time, he was not concerned about the opponents who were about to fight, but the old man sitting above the Qilian Twin Devils like a wooden sculpture.
When He Yiming saw the doddering old man, who seemed like he would enter the coffin at any time, he suddenly felt an extreme sense of danger in his heart.
This feeling was similar to the strong sense of crisis he felt when he met Zhuo Chengfeng in the armory of the Divine Wind Palace that night.
As if sensing He Yiming's gaze, the old man opened his eyes and smiled faintly at him. In this smile, there was not the slightest hostility. Instead, it was like an elder looking at an outstanding disciple of the family, with a trace of gentleness.
He Yiming was slightly startled, then he heard Jin Zhan's voice like a bug's whisper in his ear, "Brother He, this person is the master of the Qilian Twin Devils, the most famous Venerable in the Blessed Enclave, Fan Shuo."
He Yiming imperceptibly nodded his head and firmly memorized this person's face in his heart.
Two clear footsteps sounded. As soon as they heard these two footsteps, all the One-Line-Sky Realm cultivators in the Divine Wind Palace stood up as if they had agreed to it. Even Jin Zhan and the Qilian Twin Devils were no exception.
He Yiming naturally did not dare to neglect and also stood up with the crowd. However, his ears twitched slightly a few times, and he was guessing the origin of these two people.
For some reason, he felt that these two people gave him a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen them somewhere before.
A moment later, two people walked in together. One of them was rather tall and sturdy, while the other was relatively short. However, when the two of them walked together, they exuded a powerful aura that looked disdainfully at everyone around them.
Everyone bowed to them in unison. The burly man waved his sleeve and said, "Sit down."
Jin Zhanzheng said softly, "Brother He, these two are the Venerable Ones on duty this year, Gao Weiliang and Du Wenbin."
He Yiming's gaze swept over them, and a hint of understanding suddenly flashed in his heart. The two Venerables who followed Zhuo Chengfeng out of the Divine Wind Palace that night should be them.
Fan Shuo smiled gently and said, "Brother Gao, Brother Du, I'm really sorry to trouble you."
"Brother Fan, you're being too polite. This competition was personally approved by the sect master, so we're just running errands," Gao Weiliang said with a smile.
A hint of surprise flashed across He Yiming's eyes. Although Gao Weiliang and Du Wenbin were also Venerable Ones, judging from their expressions, they seemed to be extremely afraid of Fan Shuo.
Suddenly, He Yiming's ears twitched slightly, and he heard the sound of light footsteps slowly approaching.
When Gao Weiliang and Du Wenbin entered, they were aboveboard, but this person came here sneakily as if he wanted to hide it from everyone.
Nonetheless, if He Yiming heard correctly, this person was trying his best to hide it. Moreover, his attainment in the Light-body Technique was not bad, so he could land without making a sound. The problem was that this person's cultivation base was really not flattering. He had not even reached the Innate Boundary.
Therefore, no matter how careful he was, he could not hide it from anyone here.
However, when He Yiming shifted his gaze, he realized that everyone had a calm expression on their faces, as though they had not heard the footsteps at all.
He could not help but be suspicious. Today's battle was not a decisive battle that concerned the survival of the 2 sects, but those who could come here were at least One-Line-Heaven powerhouses. Even ordinary Innate Masters were rejected at the door, so how could this ordinary person, who had not even reached the Innate Boundary, dare to come here?
Fan Shuo glanced at the entrance and suddenly laughed. "Miss Qiu, you're also here. Quickly, come in."
The subtle footsteps were heard right away. Following that, a figure flashed, and a beautiful woman appeared at the entrance.
She was a lady with bright eyes and white teeth. She was dressed in a bean-green soft forged robe, which hung down to her feet. In particular, her curved eyebrows and big eyes flickered with an enchanting light.
The moment she came out from the entrance, everyone had a gentle smile on their faces. He Yiming could clearly sense the helplessness in their eyes. Even Gao Weiliang and Sir Venerable Ones were no exception. It seemed that everyone was filled with helplessness towards this little girl.
Despite that, the helpless looks on their faces were filled with deep doting at the same time. He Yiming was greatly surprised when the 2 different feelings were mixed together.
"Little Qiu, what are you doing here? In a while, they will be fighting with others. What if the shockwaves accidentally injure you?" Gao Weiliang let out a long sigh and said.
Lady Qiu's bright eyes swiveled around, revealing an indescribable sense of strangeness. She said, "Uncle Gao, with you and Uncle Du here, could it be that I would still be injured?"
He Yiming widened his eyes right away. He almost doubted if there was something wrong with his ears.
'This young lady actually called the 2 Venerable Ones uncles. What's her seniority?'
After taking a closer look, Ou Yangming realized that she had indeed not entered the Innate Boundary.
Jin Zhanzhan shrugged and noted, "Brother He, this is the youngest daughter of our sect's sect master, and she's also his only descendant. If there's nothing else, it's best not to provoke her."
He Yiming nodded. He instantly listed the lady on his list of people that he would never interact with.
Gao Weiliang laughed out loud. "With the 2 of us here, of course, we won't let you get hurt. That said, your martial arts cultivation base is too low, so it might not be beneficial for you to watch this competition. "
Miss Qiu pursed her lips and smiled. "Uncle Gao, I watched from the side when my father was exchanging pointers with the 3 higher-ups. Is Senior Brother Jin more formidable than my father and the others?"
Gao Weiliang was instantly speechless. He shook his head and said, "Since you're interested in watching, come and sit down. Don't move around later."
Lady Qiu immediately beamed with joy. She came to the two Supremacies' side and sat down quietly.
Once she sat down, her bearing changed right away. She was like a well-bred young lady from an influential family, and she was no longer as quick-witted and shrewd as before. (To be continued.
