Ye Longchi walked in with Protector Rong by his side, but Protector Di was nowhere to be seen.
Seeing these two figures enter, an ominous feeling welled up in the hearts of the others. Protector Di and Protector Rong were always Ye Longchi's left and right arms, and they were inseparable.
Why was Protector Di not here at this moment? Could something have happened to Protector Di?
Although Ye Longchi had been defeated, his expression did not contain the frustration and anger of a loser. On the contrary, his expression was still calm, and his eyes were pure, as if he had undergone a transformation after understanding something.
"Your Majesty, I am useless and failed to take down the Moon Seal Mountain. Instead, I suffered heavy casualties. This has tarnished the illustrious reputation of the Shura Sect."
Ye Longchi knelt on one knee and apologized sincerely to the Shura King.
The Shura King's gaze was like lightning, sharp and deep. He stared at Ye Longchi for a long time before he waved his hand thoughtfully. "Stand up and speak. You don't look like you've suffered a great loss. Victory and defeat are commonplace in war. Tell me, how impressive is the Moon Seal Mountain that even a genius like you has to return after running into a wall? "
Ye Longchi was in no hurry to reply. Instead, he said, "Your Majesty, the Moon Seal Mountain is nothing much. With the strength of the Shura Sect, flattening the Moon Seal Mountain is not a problem."
"Oh? Then why did you return in defeat? "The Shura King was somewhat displeased.
"Because there is a genius on the Moon Seal Mountain." Ye Longchi felt slightly bitter when he said the word 'genius'. In his eyes, there had never been a so-called genius.
This was because, before he met Qin Yi, all the geniuses he had met had ultimately been defeated by him. No one had the right to call themselves a genius in front of him.
Until he met Qin Yi. During the battle at the Palace of Melancholy, Ye Longchi did not feel that he had lost to Qin Yi in terms of martial strength.
However, he had not lost only in terms of martial strength.
In other aspects, be it in terms of bearing, vision, or state of mind, he was completely defeated by Qin Yi. In fact, his life was now in the hands of Qin Yi.
Therefore, it would be a lie if he said that he didn't feel bitter.
Zhongli Qian's gaze flickered, and he hissed. "Could it be that Qin Yi again?"
The higher-ups of the other forces also stared at Ye Long Chi with complicated gazes. What kind of monstrous genius could make Ye Longchi call him a genius?
At least, the number one geniuses of the forces in the God Forsaken Land like Mo Fou and Ji Gengxie had never received Ye Longchi's approval. Ye Longchi had never acknowledged them as geniuses.
Ye Longchi nodded lightly. "That's him!"
"You fought with him?" Asura King asked in a low voice.
Even someone as high in status as the Asura King and as strong as the publicly acknowledged number one powerhouse in the Forsaken Land of the Gods had a faint change in his voice when he asked this question.
Evidently, this question was too important to everyone.
Ye Longchi nodded silently and did not deny it.
"Who won?"
Ye Longchi took a deep breath and said, "He didn't beat me in martial arts."
Hearing this, Asura King actually let out a sigh of relief. If Ye Longchi had said that Qin Yi had defeated him, Asura King would have been disappointed.
He waved his hand. "Don't say anymore. Come with me."
After all, Ye Longchi was the heir that Asura King valued the most and had placed the most hope on. Of course, he wouldn't keep asking questions in front of so many people.
He also wouldn't allow these people to interrogate him as if he was a criminal.
Ye Longchi followed Asura King and left quickly to a secluded place.
Asura King's eyes were deep as he looked at Ye Longchi. "Tell me, what happened?"
Ye Longchi took a deep breath and met Asura King's eyes. He said seriously, "Your Majesty, I don't think there's any point in continuing the battle in the Yan Luo Region."
"What?" Asura King's eyes widened.
Even though Ye Longchi was his most valued disciple, Asura King was still enraged when he heard such disobedience.
The Asura King would absolutely not allow anyone to question his decision. Even a genius like Ye Longchi couldn't!
"If you can't give me a good reason, even if you're my direct disciple, I'll make you suffer!" Asura King said in a low voice.
Ye Longchi wasn't surprised by Asura King's reaction at all.
He knew that Asura King had always been decisive and firm. It would be difficult to sway his decision.
"I believe that Your Majesty knows more about matters outside the Divine Wilderness World than I do. But … "
"But what?"
"That Moon Seal Mountain is destined to be a bone that can't be gnawed on. If Your Majesty is determined to unify the Yan Luo Region and can't take down the Moon Seal Mountain, it will definitely be a blow to Your Majesty's authority. It's like a crown with a big gap that will make it look nondescript. "
Ye Longchi's words were very tactful. The implication was that they might be able to take down the Yan Luo Region, but they couldn't take down the Moon Seal Mountain.
If they couldn't take down the Moon Seal Mountain, they wouldn't be able to unify the Yan Luo Region.
Asura King was so angry that he laughed. "Who would've thought that your trip to the Moon Seal Mountain would scare your soul out of its wits? Ye Longchi, Ye Longchi, I've always thought that your achievements would surpass mine. Now it seems that I've overestimated you. "
Ye Longchi could feel Asura King's anger. He knew that the Asura King's tone indicated that he was on the verge of flipping out.
However, Ye Longchi still said, "Your Majesty, your disciple's soul is still here. If Your Majesty feels that your disciple has lost face for the Shura Sect, you can kill me with one strike. I have nothing to say. However, I will still advise Your Majesty not to gnaw on the Moon Seal Mountain. It's tasteless and will attract trouble instead. "
"Trouble? Who in the Yan Luo Region has the right to cause trouble for me? The University Palace? Even if it's the University Palace, I'm confident that I can make them bow down to me! "
"However, the Moon Seal Mountain doesn't rely on the University Palace. In fact, they didn't even rely on the University Palace! "
Ye Longchi's tone was extremely bitter. A place like the Gloom Palace was definitely not something that the University Palace could set up.
"If they don't rely on the University Palace, who else can they rely on? Don't tell me that they have a backer from the outer realms? "Asura King's tone was full of disdain.
Ye Longchi nodded solemnly. "That's right. The person who defeated Zhongli Qian's subordinate on the Moon Seal Mountain was an expert from the outer realms. Moreover, this kid, Qin Yi, is acquainted with more than one expert from the outer realms. "
How is that possible?
Asura King's expression darkened. He laughed sinisterly. "Did he tell you this? Or did you see it with your own eyes? "
"I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I fought with him. From various details, I can tell that what he said was true."
