Nie Pianer, who had already walked some distance away, suddenly stopped in her tracks. She glanced back at Luo Zifeng, and a faint blue light flashed in her eyes. Then, she continued to walk away, meeting up with her subordinates in a corner.
"Phew —"
Zhao Tiehu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He smiled bitterly and said, "Fortunately, this girl didn't argue with you. Zifeng, you have to change this bad habit of yours. Zifeng? What's wrong with you? "
At this time, Zhao Tiehu suddenly discovered that Luo Zifeng seemed to be possessed. His entire body was in a daze, and saliva was flowing out of the corner of his mouth. He was laughing like a fool.
This situation scared Zhao Tiehu quite a bit.
Fortunately, Luo Zifeng's state didn't last long. After a few seconds, he returned to normal.
However, Luo Zifeng touched his head in confusion. He faintly felt that he seemed to have lost something important, but he couldn't recall it.
"Zifeng, are you okay?" Zhao Tiehu asked with concern.
"Your Majesty, I'm fine. It's just that I seem to have forgotten something." Luo Zifeng said with some confusion.
"You can slowly think about what you've forgotten. It's fine as long as you're fine." Zhao Tiehu breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, he looked at Lin Xuan again and said with a smile, "Brother Lin, I said before that I wanted to introduce you to a few friends. Do you want to go over and have a few drinks?"
Lin Xuan smiled indifferently and said with some deep meaning, "No need. Although this Lin is not talented, there are not many who are qualified to be my friends. Brother Zhao, please go ahead."
"Eh?"
Zhao Tiehu was stunned. Then, he smiled awkwardly and left tactfully.
He led his subordinates to a corner of the main hall. There were already more than thirty cultivators from various forces of the True Martial Domain gathered here.
Those who could enter the Human Sovereign Secret Realm, survive the slaughter of countless demons in the Demon Domain, and slaughter millions of demons to enter the second stage of the Demon Domain were naturally not simple characters.
Without exception, these people were all geniuses from various forces in the Realm of True Force. Some of them even came from super forces such as the Demon Refining Lake, Sword Maste, Demon Abyss, and so on. Every one of them was powerful and arrogant.
Moreover, some of them were acquaintances of Lin Xuan, such as Zhao Wuji from the Sword Maste, Yu Qingshi from the Demon Refining Lake, and Yan Feng from the Stone Demon Path.
These people were gathered together only after Zhao Tiehu pulled the strings. They were prepared to huddle together for warmth under the pressure of the Ji Family.
Seeing Zhao Tiehu return alone, everyone's faces gradually darkened.
"What? That brat Lin Xuan refuses to come over? "
"Hmph! I gave you face, but you didn't want it! I want to see how long he can survive under the Ji Family's wrath! "
"That's good. Lin Xuan has been targeted by the Ji Family. Maybe he will die after this meal. If he really joins us, we will enter the Ji Family's attack range earlier. It will be very disadvantageous for us."
"Yes, yes. Let Lin Xuan die by himself. As long as we work together, I believe the Ji Family won't dare to do anything to us."
A group of geniuses from the Realm of True Force were enjoying themselves and gradually gathered a strong momentum. However, these words were more like emboldening themselves.
Zhao Tiehu sneered and sent a message to everyone, "Lin Xuan is confident in his strength. He would rather cooperate with a foreign demon like Nie Pianer than form an alliance with us. Obviously, he doesn't put us in his eyes. Forget it, let him be. Let's wait and see."
"Hmph, a demon will be a demon after all. Lin Xuan won't be arrogant for long. Let's wait and see!" Luo Zifeng echoed.
"Yes, yes. Let's drink and ignore that demon. Don't let him disturb our mood …"
Everyone else chimed in and insulted Lin Xuan as if he was nothing.
However, in the crowd, there were a few people who had traces of worry in their eyes.
At this moment, the people gathered here were the true elites of the Realm of True Force. Each of them was worthy of the title of a peerless genius.
However, the title of a genius only represented potential. It was not equivalent to strength.
At a glance, the highest cultivation was only three late-level Heavenly Transformation Realm powerhouses. The rest were all early-level and mid-level Heavenly Transformation Realm powerhouses.
Could these people really deal with the wrath of the Ji Family?
One had to know that the Ji Family not only had dozens of Perfection Heavenly Transformation Realm powerhouses, they even had three Divine Ability Realm powerhouses. The difference in strength was too great.
Next, the banquet entered its normal phase. Drinking wine, listening to music, tasting the delicious food of the demon race, enjoying the dance of the ice demon beauties, and interacting with each other. Time passed by quite comfortably.
As Lin Xuan drank the Ice Spirit Drunk, he seemed to be enjoying the dance. However, his mind was secretly looking into the space of the stone ring.
This was because he realized that Ning Fengqiu had recovered more than half of his strength. He started to wander around in the space of the stone ring. He seemed to be familiarizing himself with the environment and preparing to find the weakness of the space of the secret treasure.
Lin Xuan deliberately observed Ning Fengqiu's martial fate. He realized that although part of Ning Fengqiu's martial fate was bad luck, most of it was normal.
He could not help but frown. From the martial fate, Ning Fengqiu was not destined to die.
He pondered for a long time and measured his strength and various methods. He realized that even though he had imprisoned Ning Fengqiu, he could not do anything to him in a short period of time. Even if he tried his best, he had no confidence in killing Ning Fengqiu. This made him a little depressed.
However, Lin Xuan quickly dispelled this depression. Although he could not do anything to Ning Fengqiu, he could use external forces. In the future, if he encountered some natural strongholds that could not be resisted by humans, he could just throw Ning Fengqiu there. He was sure that this guy would not be able to escape.
"Master, among those people, there are some who are quite strong. I am friends with them. If you need some cannon fodder, I can recommend them," Shen Yukun said telepathically.
"No need."
Lin Xuan shook his head calmly and rejected Shen Yukun's suggestion.
In front of the Ji Family, a few more cannon fodder would not make much difference. He was too lazy to take care of them.
Just as everyone in the hall was immersed in the joy of the banquet, no one knew that everyone's actions were seen by another group of people.
On the upper floor of the banquet hall, in a discussion hall, seven ice demon experts with powerful auras were gathered. The Ice Demon Empress sat in the center. Everyone was looking down at the banquet below with expressionless faces.
"Everyone, the people below include almost all of the top geniuses of the human race. It is time for us to place our bets. Everyone, tell us what you think," the Ice Demon Empress said majestically.
An old ice demon sitting at the end of the table shook its catfish-like long whiskers and said in a clear voice, "I think the Human Sovereign Sword Master Battle this time will still fall into the hands of the Ji Family. The most likely candidates are Ji Lian Xing, Ji Hanjiang, and Ji Changsheng. We should place more bets on these three people."
"I don't think so."
A half human half snake Ice Demon objected, "I have already said that although the Ji Family's fate is not over yet, it is impossible for a second Human Sovereign to appear. If they do not become the Human Sovereign, even if they temporarily control the Human Sovereign Sword, they will not be able to help us break free from our shackles.
This time, since other human forces have come here, it means that the Ji Family's fate is deteriorating, and the situation is irreversible.
I dare say that this time, the Human Sovereign Sword Master position will definitely fall into the hands of someone not surnamed Ji. "
Another Ice Demon said, "I agree with the Snake Minister's opinion. The Ji Family is unable to completely control the secret realm left behind by their ancestor. This means that the situation outside will only be more severe.
A Ji Family whose fate is deteriorating will most likely not have the qualifications to control the Human Sovereign Sword. This time, I am afraid that the Human Sovereign Sword will really change its surname. "
The Ice Demon Empress nodded slightly, then looked at an old Ice Demon sitting on the throne closest to her.
This old Ice Demon was the High Priest of the Ice Demon Clan, a Rank Six powerhouse.
The tyrannical pressure that had intimidated the banquet hall was the work of this High Priest.
He was also the elder that the Ice Demon Empress respected the most. He had foresight and vision that ordinary people did not have, and his position in the clan was irreplaceable.
The Ice Demon Empress nodded slightly and said respectfully, "Respected High Priest, tell us what you think and give us the final instructions."
"Cough, cough."
The High Priest coughed lightly, and said slowly, "Among the humans below, the ones with the greatest fate are Ji Lian Xing and Nie Pianer. These two have the greatest chance of obtaining the Human Sovereign Sword. However, there is one more person that I cannot see through."
"Oh? Respected High Priest, you are the wisest elder of our Saint Clan. Could there be someone that even you cannot see through? "The Ice Demon Empress said in surprise.
The rest of the upper echelons of the Ice Demon Clan also looked over, revealing looks of surprise.
The High Priest shook his head lightly, and said in a low voice, "Although the human race was born late, they are blessed by the heavens and earth. There are many capable people, and it is not surprising that there are existences that I cannot see through.
The person I am referring to is that young human called Lin Xuan.
This person does not look like he will die young, but the strange thing is that there is no fate above his head. This goes against common sense. "
The Ice Demon Empress' eyes flashed, and she guessed, "Could it be that some powerhouse helped him conceal his fate?"
"It is possible."
The High Priest said, "Being unable to see through his fate is a variable. Our Saint Clan does not have much time left, and we cannot let go of any variable.
According to my master's calculations, the birth of the second Human Sovereign is coincidentally within the next thousand years. It is very likely that he will appear in this generation. If we miss this opportunity, our Ice Demon Clan will very likely not be able to return to our ancestral land. "
Hearing the High Priest's words, the Ice Demon Empress and the others' expressions became extremely grave.
Because they had lost their ancestral land and were chased into the Demon Domain by the Human Sovereign, the Ice Demon Clan could no longer produce powerhouses above the seventh step. From a grand clan in the universe, they had become a third-rate clan. Even those underground rats dared to provoke them.
If the Ice Demon Clan wanted to leave the Demon Domain and return to their ancestral land, the only way was to befriend the future Human Sovereign and obtain his support.
"High Priest, what do you think?" The Ice Demon Empress asked.
