He Yiming's eyebrows twitched a few times. It would be fine if they only wanted to meet the lords to make an announcement or negotiate.
However, if it was as Zhuo Wanlian said, and the top figures gathered at the northern border, the commotion would be unimaginable.
Even though He Yiming did not know much about the various sects, he knew that when the top figures gathered for a certain matter and sat down to discuss it, it would no longer be a big deal. If that was the case, then this matter would no longer be a matter of a single sect or sect, or even a matter of a certain region.
It would certainly affect the world's general trend, and the top figures would not be able to stay out of it.
Ai Wenbin's face turned slightly pale. He also thought of the same thing, which was why he was also anxious.
He Yiming asked softly, "Brother Ai, what's going on with the Ice Island that appears once in a thousand years?"
Ai Wenbin shook his head and replied to him, "I'm not too sure about this, and even the sect's records are rather vague. But … "He hesitated for a while before he finally condensed his voice into a thin line and said," According to the seniors, the mysterious Ice Island that appears once in a thousand years didn't exist thousands of years ago. "
He Yiming could tell that there was a hidden meaning in Ai Wenbin's words. It was only because he was afraid that he spoke so vaguely.
Thousands of years ago, the scope was too vague.
After pondering for a while, an idea flashed in Ai Wenbin's mind.
There were countless things that happened thousands of years ago, but it seemed like there was only one thing that could be related to the top figures in the world.
Ai Wenbin's eyes immediately lit up, and he looked up at Ai Wenbin.
The veteran Venerable One smiled bitterly and said softly, "You guessed it right."
He did not ask anything, but he understood He Yiming's thoughts by looking at his expression.
He Yiming nodded quietly. He completely understood why the top figures were so concerned about the Ice Island that appears once in a thousand years.
It was because the Ice Island was surely related to the missing people from the Divine Path.
Perhaps they could find the reason why the people from the Divine Path disappeared in that place.
If they could really find the reason, then it meant that these top experts had a chance to ascend to the Supreme Dao in this lifetime.
This temptation was simply too great, especially for the Sect Masters of the various large sects. This was simply an irresistible temptation.
However, this was the only thing that could bring all the top powerhouses together.
The three of them sat in silence. Whether it was Ai Wenbin or He Yiming, they were no longer interested in introducing the people from the Northern Border to the new Venerables.
Although the Life and Death World was important, how could it be compared to the current situation?
Right now, those people were still kept in the dark. If they knew what had happened, it would have caused a huge commotion.
An hour later, two figures came down from the mountain. They were Li Mingxuan and the old servant who had left earlier.
After the old servant accompanied Li Mingxuan to this place, he bowed slightly to everyone. Then, he came before 108 and bowed deeply to the ground. Only then did he take a few steps back and leave the pavilion.
When the old servant bowed, Li Mingxuan and the others didn't dare to be negligent and respectfully returned the greeting. However, when she saw the old servant bowing to 108 while 108 just stood there without moving, the shock in her heart was indescribable.
She hesitated for a moment before asking, "Venerable Ai, who is this expert? Aren't you going to introduce him?"
Ai Wenbin smiled wryly and said, "This is Venerable He's good friend, Venerable 108, Venerable Bai."
Li Mingxuan thought about it hesitantly, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't think of such a famous person.
Ai Wenbin coughed softly and said, "Venerable He met Venerable Bai in the mountains. Venerable Bai once fought with our sect's Divine Diviner and won in one move."
Li Mingxuan and Zhuo Wanlian gasped at the same time. This time, they completely understood why the old servant was so respectful to 108.
However, after hearing about this battle record, even Li Mingxuan had a similar feeling.
In the face of such a powerhouse, no matter how respectful one was, it wouldn't be too much.
He Yiming's steady voice was heard. "Venerable Li, what did the Sect Master say? Is he willing to head to the Northern Border?"
Li Mingxuan habitually glanced over, but when she saw 108 standing behind He Yiming like a bodyguard, the coldness in her eyes disappeared instantly.
This wasn't because she was snobbish, but because she had been nurtured from a young age and had a habit of worshipping and revering powerhouses.
This was the basic rule of this world where powerhouses stood in great numbers. Anyone who violated this rule would be spurned by all the powerhouses.
"Exalted He, although this old one has met your esteemed sect master, how could this old one possibly guess his thoughts?" Li Mingxuan said helplessly.
He Yiming was dumbfounded. However, after thinking about it, he wouldn't have dared to ask about the Sect Master's actions either.
With that, Li Mingxuan cupped her hands at them and said, "I've completed my mission here, so I'll be taking my leave now."
Ai Wenbin narrowed his eyes and said, "Venerable Li, you've traveled a great distance to come here, so you should stay for a few more days no matter what. How can you leave so soon? Won't people say that Heavenly Lake doesn't know how to treat guests well?"
Li Mingxuan waved her hand and said, "Your esteemed Lord Sakra asked me to pass a message to my esteemed sect master. The matter is rather urgent, do you think this old one still dares to stay here?"
Ai Wenbin immediately shut his mouth. He didn't dare to say anything to persuade them to stay.
Li Mingxuan turned around and said, "Venerable He, I know you're very worried about Lixun, but I can guarantee you that she's received the best treatment in the Ice Palace. Even I can't compare to her. Besides, these few years will be crucial for her to become a Venerable One. Even if you miss her, please wait a few more years until she becomes a Venerable One. It won't be too late to look for her at the northern border then. "
He Yiming scoffed and asked, "Venerable Li, in your opinion, when can Lixun become a Venerable One?"
Li Mingxuan pondered for a while and answered, "At least 3 years, and at most 5 to 6 years. She'll surely become a Venerable One."
He Yiming was shocked. "Are you sure?"
He Yiming knew Yuan Lixun's situation like the back of his hand. If she wanted to advance to a Venerable One in such a short period of time, who knew how these people from the northern border did it?
Li Mingxuan chuckled and said, "Venerable He, if the powers of all the supreme powerhouses in the world can't help Lixun become a Venerable One in a short time, that'll be surprising."
He Yiming faintly understood the meaning behind her words. Countless thoughts quickly ran through his mind. Could it be that aside from the legendary Ice Island, the invitation to the experts from all over the world was also related to Yuan Lixun?
Nonetheless, it was not appropriate for him to ask about that.
Li Mingxuan and Zhuo Wanlian no longer hesitated. They went back the way they came and went down the mountain.
He Yiming and Ai Wenbin looked at each other and noticed the curiosity and fear in each other's eyes.
The news that the Northern Borderline brought this time was simply too shocking.
For people like them who did not have much to do with the Divine Realm, they had already felt a huge, almost suffocating pressure. Then, for the top group of people in the world who had the strength to break through to the Divine Realm, what would it be like?
They had a vague feeling that something bad was going to happen.
Perhaps, from now on, the world would not be peaceful anymore …
After a long sigh, Ai Wenbin suddenly said, "Brother He, Brother He, it's best that we don't tell anyone about what happened today."
He Yiming nodded without hesitation. He agreed with this point one hundred and twenty percent.
Especially now that they had received the news from the northern border and were about to head to the Life and Death Realm. If the news was spread now, it was guaranteed that people would be in chaos, and anything could happen.
Ai Wenbin turned around and said helplessly, "Let's go. When it's time to lie, we still have to lie."
He Yiming widened his eyes and did not know whether to laugh or cry. He did not expect Ai Wenbin, who had always been serious, to have such an unexpected side to him. His heavy mood instantly lightened.
The two of them walked side by side toward the middle of the mountain, and 108 followed behind He Yiming obediently. Perhaps, he was the only one who did not care at all.
Soon, they returned to the hall.
When they entered, everyone looked at them suspiciously.
Ai Wenbin and Hua Yiming went out to welcome them, but they dawdled for almost two hours, which naturally made people suspicious. If this was not an important place in the Heavenly Pool, and no one dared to be presumptuous, more than half of the people would have gone out to ask about it.
Ai Wenbin's face was full of smiles, and no one could tell that he was full of worries at the moment.
"Everyone, I came late, please forgive me."
Hua Ruijin glanced behind them and said, "Brother Ai, where are the people from the northern border?"
Ai Wenbin heaved a long sigh and said, "Everyone, I have a very bad news. I'm afraid no one from the northern border will participate in this trip to the Life and Death Realm. "
Everyone nodded slightly and was not surprised by this.
In fact, when they did not see the people from the northern border, they already had this premonition. It was just confirmed by Ai Wenbin at this moment.
Ai Wenbin continued, "Because of this, I chatted with the guests from the northern border for a while, please forgive me."
Hua Ruijin, Yu Mufei, and the others expressed their understanding at the same time.
It was not the first time these forces had gathered. Seeing that the other major forces had newly advanced Venerable Ones, but the northern border did not have one this time.
They would not feel good if they got along with each other so easily.
If Ai Wenbin accompanied them for a while and comforted them, no one would use this to make an issue of it.
Hua Ruijin's eyes focused, and he said, "Since no one from the northern border is coming, can we set off in advance?"
Ai Wenbin nodded slightly and said, "Brother Hua, you're right. In that case, how about we set off for the Life and Death Realm in 3 days?"
Everyone looked at each other and nodded in agreement. In the eyes of every newly advanced Venerable One, there was an unconcealable excitement …
