Chapter 370: Swear Allegiance to Deities Templar? (2/2)
On the King’s throne sat an old man with a ruddy, glowing face, and silvery white hair, looking quite dignified. At this moment, he was staring fixedly at the dancers’ exposed bellies, a twinkle flitting across his eyes from time to time.
This old man was none other than Deities Templar’s Great Elder, Gě Gé.
There were a total of nine Great Elders in Deities Templar, each one was a Tenth Order Saint realm and above, possessing strength parallel with their status. And below the throne, sat ten Deities Templar Elders.
Killing Lu Kai three years ago, other than Ao Baixue being part of the reason, Deities Templar also wanted to lure Huang Xiaolong out, even sending Gě Gé and ten Elders to a small kingdom such as Luo Tong Kingdom, lying in wait for Huang Xiaolong to appear.
Amongst the ten Deities Templar Elders within the hall, Yao Shan was one of them.
His most brilliant descendent, Yao Fei, had been killed by Huang Xiaolong, thus Yao Shan requested to be one of the Elders watching over Luo Tong Kingdom. He wanted to severe Huang Xiaolong’s head from his shoulders with his own hands, it was the only way the hatred in his heart could be pacified.
“Everyone, please.” Gě Gé raised his wine cup, toasting the Elders.
Yao Shan and the other Elders followed, raising their wine cups for a toast, downing it all in one gulp.
Gě Gé placed his wine cup down, smacking his lips and grinning, “This Snow Moon Wine, I really like it.”
This sentence brought murmurs of assent from the Elders below.
Yao Shan spoke, “We’ve been waiting here for three years, I didn’t expect Huang Xiaolong, that punk, to hide for three years, too cowardly to show up. No one knows where he’s hiding at.”
An Elder, Jiang Shi, that was sitting beside Yao Shan chuckled, “He’s afraid of our Deities Templar, however, if he actually succeeded the Asura’s Gate Sovereign position, it would quite troublesome to our Deities Templar.”
Gě Gé laughed with dismissive tone, “No need to worry, he won’t succeed Asura’s Gate Sovereign position, that Chen Tianqi joined hands with Bedlam Lands’ Sin City Castellan, Zhao Yi, and not long ago, our Temple Preceptor has sent Elder Li Molin over to the Asura’s Gate headquarters. A heaven’s net has been set up, just waiting for Huang Xiaolong to jump in. The instant he dares to appear, he’s dead!”
Exactly at this moment, a powerful energy fluctuation came from the palace doors outside. Everyone was surprised and exchanged looks among themselves.
“There are people who dare to cause trouble in Luo Tong Palace?” Jiang Shi said.
“Could it be Huang Xiaolong? He’s finally here!” Yao Shan blurted as the thought flashed through his mind.
Expressions tightened at the possibility.
Gě Gé stood up from the throne seat, sneering coldly, “Huang Xiaolong? Better still if it’s him! We’ve been waiting for this day for three years. Come, let’s us go welcome Martial Spirit World’s most dazzling monstrous genius of all time!”
Everyone got on their feet, flying out from the hall, heading straight to the palace’s main doors.
At the same time, at the palace’s main doors, Huang Xiaolong stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the palace great hall structure with a taunting smile, “Eleven Saint realm experts? Deities Templar really puts me on a high pedestal.”
A bright light flickered, Gě Gé and the ten Elders appeared in the space above the palace’s main doors. The moment those eleven Saint realm experts appeared, a suffocating pressure enveloped the whole square. Before some of the palace guards and families’ disciples could react, their bodies exploded from the pressure, and the rest fled in horror.
“You’re Huang Xiaolong?” Gě Gé scrutinized Huang Xiaolong from head to toe upon arrival.
“Correct.” Huang Xiaolong replied calmly.
“Huang Xiaolong, I didn’t expect you to really dare to show up here!” Yao Shan sneered, “Today’s your end! Let me see if you can still flee this time!”
Gě Gé signaled the ten Elders with his eyes, and they all spread out, encircling Huang Xiaolong, Zhao Shu, and Zhang Fu.
Gě Gé stared at Zhao Shu and Zhang Fu, saying, “Both of you are probably Asura’s Gate Left and Right Custodians. Truth be told, there is no advantage for you to risk your life for Huang Xiaolong. If you’re willing to swear allegiance to Deities Templar, we will definitely treat you justly.”
