After flying a few kilometers to the left, they arrived at the foot of a huge mountain. Tens of thousands of Alliance soldiers were fighting with the demons, and the situation was extremely dangerous.
Yang Xuan noticed that when Qin Liuyin saw those grotesquely shaped demons, a peculiar look flashed across her eyes.
Ji Cang apologized to Yang Xuan, then stepped into the air and walked over, a violent energy gushing out.
Although there were a lot of demons here, as many as 20,000 of them, their cultivation wasn't high. The strongest was only an Emperor-level demon. Naturally, they weren't Ji Cang's match and were quickly cleaned up.
With the crisis resolved, the Alliance soldiers cheered and saluted Ji Cang.
Not long after, Ji Cang flew back to Yang Xuan's side, followed by two Emperors.
Yang Xuan recognized the two Emperors. They were the two people he had saved from the Evil Demon's mind control.
When the two saw Yang Xuan, they looked very embarrassed. After a while, they stepped forward and saluted, "Profound Sage!" Then, there was nothing else.
Yang Xuan nodded with a smile and didn't say anything.
The two seemed to be relieved. They cupped their hands and retreated.
Ji Cang seemed to know the inside story and tried to smooth things over. "Profound Sage, don't blame them. Now that the rumors are rampant, let's wait for the Desolate God to clear your name."
Yang Xuan didn't say anything and signaled Ji Cang to continue.
After this small interlude, nothing else happened. After a while, the three finally entered the range of the first war zone.
Yang Xuan saw that the first war zone was clearly different from the other war zones. There were many cities in the huge range, each of which was incomparably huge and revealed a solemn aura.
People came and went in the cities. Apart from the fact that there were many soldiers, the situation was no different from ordinary large cities. The shops and peddlers did their own business, and it was very lively.
Seeing the strange look in Yang Xuan's eyes, Ji Cang knew what he was thinking. He explained, "At the very beginning, there was only one war zone in the entire central battlefield. As time passed, the warriors who entered the battlefield mostly got married and had children. Just like that, generation after generation, it's no different from an ordinary country today. There are also ordinary people."
Yang Xuan nodded in understanding.
Ji Cang and Yang Xuan landed outside a huge city in the center of the city. A group of people was already waiting for them.
The leader of the group was an old man with a white beard. His ears were pointed, and he had a smile on his face.
There were more than ten people behind him, all of whom had different appearances and expressions. They looked at Yang Xuan with disdain and curiosity.
"Cang Sheng, long time no see!" The old man with the white beard laughed heartily as he came forward.
A smile appeared on Ji Cang's face. He went up to the old man and hugged him before saying, "Wood Saint, long time no see!"
After the two finished catching up, the old man with the white beard, Wood Saint, turned his gaze to Yang Xuan and said with a strange expression, "This must be the Profound Sage whose name shook the world?"
Yang Xuan cupped his hands towards him and said expressionlessly, "Wood Saint!"
Ji Cang had already told him that there were three Saints in the first war zone, and Wood Saint was ranked third.
With a smile on his face, Wood Saint stared at Yang Xuan for a while before nodding and saying, "You are indeed a hero among men. This old man, Wood Saint, welcomes the Profound Sage to the first war zone."
This time, it wasn't just Ji Cang who found it strange. Even the several people behind the old man had strange expressions on their faces. It seemed that they hadn't expected Wood Saint to go against common sense and praise Yang Xuan so much.
However, Wood Saint was one of the three Great Saints of the first war zone. The others weren't qualified to ask about him, so they all remained silent.
But because of this, the expressions on their faces became much more interesting. They didn't know how to face Yang Xuan. In the end, they could only bow together but didn't say anything.
In any case, Yang Xuan was now recognized as one of the Saint Venerables, one of the people at the peak of the starry sky. His cultivation had nothing to do with how he conducted himself.
Yang Xuan cupped his hands again, but his face was still expressionless. "Wood Saint is too polite."
Wood Saint looked meaningfully at Yang Xuan and said, "Now that the Desolate God isn't here, Profound Sage's matter will have to wait for a while."
Ji Cang said strangely, "Wood Saint, Great Sovereign Desolate God isn't here?"
Wood Saint nodded. "There seemed to be some changes with the demons. To be safe, the Desolate God went out to check and hasn't returned yet."
"I see!" Ji Cang looked apologetically at Yang Xuan.
He had been hurrying along the way, but he didn't expect that when he arrived, he would still have to wait.
Wood Saint said, "Profound Sage, come with me and stay in the Sacred Gymnasium for the time being. We'll wait for the Desolate God to return and make a decision."
Since Yang Xuan had come, he definitely wanted to see the true master behind this alliance. He didn't have any objections.
Yang Xuan pointed at Qin Liuyin and said, "Yes, Wood Saint can make the arrangements. However, she will be staying with me, preferably in the same room."
The people behind Wood Saint all had looks of disdain on their faces. They thought that Yang Xuan was naturally fond of women and couldn't leave them for even a moment.
Wood Saint looked at Qin Liuyin, who was smiling and didn't object. He nodded meaningfully and said, "Since she's Profound Sage's family, there's naturally no harm."
He obviously misunderstood, but neither Yang Xuan nor Qin Liuyin were in the mood to explain. They just let them guess.
With Ji Cang here, his mission was considered complete. After bidding farewell to Yang Xuan and Wood Saint, he entered the city.
Yang Xuan and Qin Liuyin followed Wood Saint into the center of this vast city. However, they didn't land directly. Instead, they flew close to the city's sky and headed toward a huge building located in the east of the city.
As they flew past, the citizens below all bowed to show their respect for the Saint.
When they arrived at the huge building, there were already people waiting for them. They opened the door for Yang Xuan. Wood Saint brought Yang Xuan down and arranged for him and Qin Liuyin to stay in a huge courtyard.
After they left, Wood Saint didn't leave. He looked at Yang Xuan and said, "I wonder if I can speak with Profound Sage alone."
Before Yang Xuan could say anything, Qin Liuyin tactfully said, "I'll go to the room next door."
Yang Xuan gave her a warning look and transmitted, "Don't think about running away. I'll keep an eye on you."
Qin Liuyin also transmitted back, "I'm still waiting for you to help me. Don't worry."
After that, Qin Liuyin walked into the room next door. However, Yang Xuan's divine sense was locked onto her so that she couldn't escape.
After Qin Liuyin left, Wood Saint waved his hand and directly pulled the two of them into an independent space. He said, "Profound Sage, this old man wants to know how you killed Gu Xing."
Yang Xuan first checked his divine sense. After finding that it wasn't blocked, he said indifferently, "I thought Wood Saint would ask about Yang Saint."
Wood Saint smiled and said, "Gong Mingyang was trapped in the main body of the Saint Demon Palace. We already knew about this. Profound Sage, you disregarded your own safety and entered the Saint Demon Palace alone to rescue him. Although you failed in the end, this kind of action is already fearless. How can there be a problem?"
Yang Xuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Didn't the outside world say that I betrayed my teammates and trapped Yang Saint in a dangerous place?"
Wood Saint smiled and said, "The people of the world are ignorant. This kind of ridiculous rumor is naturally not true among the Saints."
Yang Xuan said, "Oh. Then why has the rumor already spread?"
"Naturally, someone is spreading it." Wood Saint's smile was still as he said each word clearly.
