The strange change on He Yiming's face was immediately noticed by the others, and their hearts became colder.
Now that the young man's strength had been recognized by everyone, if anyone could find out anything, it would be him alone.
Jin Zhanzhan asked in a deep voice, "Brother He, what's wrong?"
He Yiming stretched out his hand and pointed straight ahead, "There, there's a powerhouse."
His words were simple and clear. Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, but their line of sight was blocked by a tall hill, and they could not see anything at all.
However, to be called a powerhouse by He Yiming, and to be a powerhouse that made his expression change, one could imagine how powerful the other party was.
A trace of anger flashed across Jin Zhanzhan's face. He said, "Edwin, every time Heaven, Hell, and the Survival Realm open, the newly advanced Venerable Ones from the East and the West have to fight. During this battle, the other Venerable Ones are not allowed to intervene. For thousands of years, this rule has never changed. Don't you think what you're doing today is too much? "
Although he was conceited, he was definitely not a fool. A powerhouse that could make He Yiming so wary was definitely not someone they could resist. However, from another perspective, this kind of person could not be a newly advanced Venerable One.
A trace of awkwardness flashed across Edwin's face, but it only lasted for a moment before he returned to normal.
"Your Excellency Jin Zhanzhan, we're not the ones who broke the rules first," Edwin said loudly.
Jin Zhanzhan sneered and said, "If it's not you, is it us?"
"It's you."
A bone-chilling voice came from the back of the Western powerhouses. It was from Glinton of the Dark Alliance's parliament.
He slowly stepped forward, and the Western Venerable Ones seemed to be quite wary of him. As soon as they saw him coming forward, they subconsciously took a few steps back and kept a considerable distance from him.
This approach was somewhat suspicious of showing weakness, but it highlighted this person's ability more and more.
Jin Zhanzhan was so angry that he laughed and said, "Nonsense. When did we break the rules?"
Glinton turned his gaze to He Yiming and said, "This person has clearly been promoted to a Five Qi Great Venerable, but he mingled among you. Isn't this breaking the rules?"
Everyone looked at each other with comical expressions on their faces.
Jin Zhanzheng snorted angrily and said, "Your Excellency Glinton, although Brother He's a Five-qi Venerable, his talent is extraordinary. He indeed became a Venerable One when the Crying Ghost Ridge opened this time."
Although he spoke confidently, he didn't have much hope of convincing the other party.
After all, if he hadn't been familiar with a freak like He Yiming when he was in the Three Flower Realm, even he wouldn't have believed it.
Sure enough, Glinton laughed without restraint. "Sir Jin Zhanzhong, you're quite eloquent. However, I really can't believe what you just said."
Jin Zhanzheng helplessly rolled his eyes. He let out a long sigh and weakly said, "I never lie. Whether you believe me or not, I can't do anything about it."
Deng Yichen's face darkened. He said coldly, "Sir Glinton, Brother Jin is telling the truth. Brother He is not even thirty years old this year."
All kinds of cold laughter came from the mouths of the Western people. Without exception, their laughter was full of sarcasm.
Edwin's laughter was the most hearty as if he had heard a great joke. He laughed very happily.
"Your Excellency Deng Yichen, thank you for your joke." He bowed in a gentlemanly manner and said, "What you have told us has indeed made us very happy."
Many powerhouses from the East had ugly expressions. However, they had no good way to deal with the new Venerable Ones from the West who clearly didn't believe it even if they were beaten to death.
In fact, if these people had not met He Yiming several times and witnessed with their own eyes that he was only an ordinary Venerable One before entering the Life and Death Realm, they would not believe it either.
He Yiming looked ahead expressionlessly, but he put most of his attention on the back of the hill.
The Divine Hall Warhawk was recovering at a rapid speed. Although this speed was not as heaven-defying as when it swallowed White Stone and the blood of top-grade divine beasts, this speed was still quite shocking.
He took a deep breath and said coldly, "Edwin, you should invite the friend behind the hill to come out."
When he spoke, the sneers of the Western people suddenly stopped.
No matter how much these Westerners did not believe it, they still clearly saw the gap in strength between them. An ordinary Venerable who had just advanced would not be stupid enough to face a Five-qi Supreme Venerable head-on.
When Deng Yichen and the others were talking, they could still use words to ridicule them. However, in front of He Yiming, no one dared to be presumptuous.
Even Edwin and Glinton, who had the backing of the Divine Hall and the Dark Coalition, could not do it.
Edwin nodded slightly at He Yiming and said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency, please forgive me for not being able to fulfill your request." His expression was neither servile nor overbearing as he continued, "When His Majesty is willing to summon you, he will let you see His Majesty's glory."
The expressions of Jin Zhanzheng and the others really changed this time. Before Edwin said this, they still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
Although the Divine Hall Warhawk was the current Pope's pet, the competition between them was just a competition between some newly advanced Venerables. How could the dignified Pope of the Western Divine Hall come here?
However, after hearing His Majesty address him as His Majesty, they all gave up.
In the entire Western World, the only person who could be addressed as His Majesty by the Divine Hall Venerables was that legendary man.
Li Jiangfeng smiled and said, "For us, we can even trouble the honorable His Majesty Franklyn to come to Southern Border. We are really lucky."
Everyone was silent. Even Jin Zhanzhong's body had a trace of lifelessness.
Edwin's gaze remained the same, but he was also doubtful. When His Majesty the Pope appeared in front of them and made such an arrangement, the Venerable Ones from the West were also confused.
Given His Majesty the Divine Hall's Pope's identity, it seemed unexplainable that he would intervene in this matter.
Li Jiangfeng sighed and said, "Everyone, it's all my fault. I brought you here, and I'm cutting off my own path of survival."
The people here were all Venerable Ones. If they had not entered the Star Island, which was surrounded by powerful vortexes and undercurrents, they could have escaped in different directions. Even if their opponents had 3 heads and 6 arms, they could not have caught them all in one go.
After entering this place, as Li Jiangfeng said, they had walked into a desperate situation and were cutting off their own paths of survival.
He Yiming looked around and said, "Since He doesn't believe in him, He will withdraw from this competition. I wonder if you think it's fair."
Jin Zhanzheng and the others were indignant, but there was nothing they could do.
The situation was stronger than the person. In order to not let the powerhouse at the peak of humanity take the initiative to make a move, they seemed to have no better choice.
Besides, even if He Yiming did not make a move, with the strengths of Jin Zhanzheng, the Li family's father and daughter, the Qilian Twin Devils, and the others, they might not be defeated.
Edwin hesitated for a while and said, "Your Excellency Venerable One He, since His Majesty is here, everything will be decided by him. Given his wisdom, he should give everyone a fair choice."
He Yiming's eyes slowly turned cold. He reached out and pressed his hand on his chest as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he finally made a decision and muttered a few words to himself.
Nonetheless, nobody knew what he was saying, nor did they know the purpose of his actions.
He Yiming put down his hand and looked up. He said coldly, "Your Majesty Franklyn, your war eagle should've recovered. Please come out."
Jin Zhanzheng's expression changed slightly. Only then did he understand that the powerhouse was hiding to heal the sacred beast.
The sound of footsteps rang out from behind the hill. Everyone's gaze turned towards that direction at the same time.
A ray of light flashed in the shadows. The moment this person appeared, he was like a ray of light illuminating the darkness, causing the shadows on the hillside to light up.
Everyone's eyes were in a trance, but in just a moment, they had already seen who it was.
It was an old man who came out from behind the hillside. The old man was wearing a strange robe. This robe seemed to have some kind of magical power as it flashed with a faint light from time to time.
When the crowd first looked over, they were dazzled by this strange flickering light.
He Yiming's eyes narrowed slightly. He was the first person to react from this state.
This was not only because he was the strongest, but also because of the cultivation method he practiced.
With a glance at the robe, he immediately knew that this robe was at least a super defensive Divine Soldier. Moreover, the robe must have some kind of magical ability similar to the Distortion Technique.
However, it was not strange for such a treasure to be worn by a powerhouse at the peak of the human dao.
The old man's figure was moderate, and his face was calm without any expression. If it wasn't for his eye-catching robe that told everyone that his identity was extraordinary, most people would've mistaken him for an ordinary old man at first glance.
The moment he walked out, all the Western Venerables bowed respectfully. Even Glinton, who came from the Dark Alliance, showed enough respect to this old man.
He Yiming's eyes slowly lit up.
The peak of the human dao …
The moment he saw this old man, he was finally sure that this was the third powerhouse at the peak of the human dao he had encountered.
In less than a year, he had encountered three powerhouses at this level in succession. However, this was not something to be happy about at all.
This was because these three powerhouses at the peak of the human dao were all his enemies. This luck was probably one of a kind in the world.
