The Second Sermon
Wind Willow Residence was a side residence of the Liu Clan. It was located in the depths of the Saint Star City and was located in a remote area.
As the night deepened, a clamor suddenly came from the forest where Wind Willow Residence was located. The upper echelons of the Liu Clan, dressed in luxurious clothes, walked over in large strides. They were laughing and laughing with each other, looking relaxed.
At the head of the table were the Patriarchs of the Four Great Clans.
Their gazes looked forward, and they were filled with confidence with every step they took. Especially when they saw Liu Mengyan standing in front of the Wind Willow Residence, their expressions became even more arrogant.
"Why don't I see Pavilion Master Luo Yun?" Duan Chun spoke. His tone was heavy, and it was obvious that he was mocking Chu Xingyun. His eyes scanned the surroundings, showing no signs of fear.
Liu Mengyan coldly stared at the crowd. Seeing that the upper echelons of the various great clans had arrived, a trace of coldness suddenly flashed across her eyes. However, she concealed it very well and pretended to sigh helplessly. She opened her mouth and said, "The matter of discussion will be handled by me. Yun 'er will naturally not appear here."
"I forgot that Pavilion Master Luo Yun has to give a sermon tomorrow. He should be seriously preparing now, right?" Duan Chun pretended to be enlightened and mocked again.
The crowd burst into laughter. They all felt that Chu Xingyun's behavior was childish. He had clearly chosen to compromise, but he still pretended to be aloof.
"Don't go overboard!" Liu Mengyan's expression darkened. She leaned to the side and said coldly, "Don't waste time. Come in. I've already prepared everything."
"Then we'll do as you say." Mo Wuwei saw the change in Liu Mengyan's expression and felt even more relaxed. He waved his hand, raised his head, and strode into Wind Willow Residence.
Seeing this, the crowd no longer laughed. They glanced at Liu Mengyan with complacent gazes, and then unhurriedly followed in large strides.
As the upper echelons of the Famous Clan stepped into Wind Willow Residence, the anger in Liu Mengyan's eyes gradually dissipated. A faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
When everyone had entered, she suddenly stretched out her hands, and her ten fingers quickly formed an obscure hand seal. Finally, she abruptly slapped towards the void, and a vast amount of spiritual energy bloomed, instantly disappearing into the dark night sky.
Rumble!
In an instant, with Liu Mengyan at the center, strands of terrifying aura of calamity spread out. In the sky above Wind Willow Residence, the Calamity Spirit Pearl that flickered with dark green light appeared. The light was like rain, turning into nothingness and finally enveloping the entire residence.
After doing all this, Liu Mengyan's face turned as pale as paper. She had obviously used up a large amount of spiritual energy. However, she also heaved a deep sigh of relief. Her vision slowly moved, and she looked towards the center of Sacred Star City. She whispered to herself, "Yun 'er, I'll leave the rest to you."
After speaking, Liu Mengyan took out a pill. Her face immediately turned rosy. She walked lightly towards Wind Willow Residence and stepped into it.
Everything that had happened just now was quite grand. However, the crowd in Wind Willow Residence was unaware of it. They could not see the strands of calamity energy at all. Their minds were filled with thoughts of how to divide the resources of the Eighteen Dynasties and Eighteen Ancient Cities.
At the same time that Liu Mengyan entered Wind Willow Residence, there was also a commotion in the center of Sacred Star City.
This place was originally a spacious square that could easily hold a million people. At this moment, several pitch-black figures rushed through the square, piling up a platform.
Time passed bit by bit. When the sun rose on the horizon, an exquisite platform made of white jade stood in the center of the square. It was ten meters tall and was translucent. It reflected dazzling seven-colored light.
Chu Xingyun's lecture had already been announced last night. The entire city knew about it. Now, the sky had just begun to brighten, and the entire Sacred Star City was in an uproar.
Figure after figure rushed over from various parts of the city. They shuttled through the air and landed in the square in the end. They all looked around curiously with different expressions. Some were puzzled, while others were curious.
As time passed, the sun had already peeked out from the clouds and hung in the sky. The square was already filled with people. Everywhere one looked, there were people.
However, if one looked carefully, one would be surprised to find that although the number of people was huge, it was far less than the first lecture. There were only about 400,000 people, not even half of the total.
What's more, among these four hundred thousand people, the majority were from the younger generation. There were three hundred thousand people, and all of them were from the Saint Star Academy. Their faces were filled with anticipation and excitement, as if they couldn't wait to see Chu Xingyun.
As for the remaining 100,000 people, they had different expressions. As they had waited for too long, some of them even yawned and looked tired. They were discussing intermittently, and the atmosphere was very strange.
Among these people, there were even high-ranking members of the family and officials of the ancient city. They stared at the white jade platform in the center. As they talked, the corners of their mouths curled up into a mocking smile.
The trip to Wind Willow Residence was very mysterious. Other than the high-ranking members of the family and the officials of the ancient city, ordinary people did not know about it. Those who could enter Wind Willow Residence were either the family heads or high-ranking officials of the ancient city. All of them were prominent figures who held great power.
Although the people before Chu Xingyun also possessed authority, they were only at the middle level, and did not have much authority to speak. Today, they had gathered here not only because they were curious about the content of Chu Xingyun's second sermon, but also because they were seeking psychological comfort. They wanted to see Chu Xingyun make a fool of himself so that they could vent the anger and grievances in their hearts.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Just as they were thinking about it, there was a continuous ear-piercing sound in the air. Everyone subconsciously looked up and saw Chu Xingyun and his group flying in the air. Everyone was exuding a magnificent aura.
"Greetings to the Pavilion Master!" In an instant, the three hundred thousand youths simultaneously bowed their backs and spoke respectfully. Their eyes had long since emitted bursts of bright light due to their excitement.
However, although there were people in the crowd who spoke, their voices were scattered. The high-ranking members of the family and the officials of the ancient city even snorted disdainfully. They looked at Chu Xingyun coldly as if they were looking at a defeated opponent.
"Why are there so few people?" Lu Ling followed Chu Xingyun. When he saw the crowd below, he could not help but be stunned.
Ning Lefan, Xia Qingcheng, and the others also looked dignified.
