Chapter 17: Gathering (2) (1/2)

”Listen, Yang Wei, there are many other sects here and most of them aren't friendly when we get inside the mystery realm.” Elder Jing whispered softly to Yang Wei when they got to their position.

”I understand Elder Jing. I'm not a soft head nor an idiot to believe we will all work together for the greater good.” Yang Wei replied while looking at the other people.

When Elder Jing saw Yang Wei was not lying and truly knows the situation they're in, she nods her head as she starts explaining the crucial people.

”In the front with red cloth is the sect leader for Tyrant Lion Sect and they're the closest sect in matching the Phoenix Sky Sect. He calls himself Pang Long as he thinks of himself as the dragon.” Elder Jing said to Yang Wei and reminded him to avoid their sect at all cost.

Yang Wei nodded lightly in acknowledgment as she continued to explain many other important people in this gathering of people.

As Elder Jing takes around 10-15 minutes to point out everyone for Yang Wei to memorize, the sect leader and also the father of Meng Yan, Meng Pao start to stand forward as he announced loudly.

”Hello every sect, as the sect leader and Emperor of this kingdom, I wish you all good luck to this mysterious realm. Remember, everything you obtain is through your own luck and no grudges are to be allowed. What happens inside the realm stays inside, meaning if a sect kills your sect member, you are not allowed to seek vengeance. Is that clear?”

Once Meng Pao finished his announcement, he released his aura to everyone below, to not only pressure them but to show his authority.

Those who defy his rules shall face the consequences of possible sect annihilation.

A moment of silence echoed through the crowd as no one had the guts to speak aloud.

”Haha, well said Emperor Meng Pao, we will definitely adhere to the rules no matter what.” Pang Long said laughing to break the silence but if others have eyes, they could see Pang Long has no regard for the emperor.

It wasn't any news or surprise that Pang Long planned to make his sect become number 1 and overthrow the Phoenix Sky Sect. It was just that the timing and his power are not enough to do so.

Emperor Meng Pao didn't bother with his attitude as he simply nodded and said, ”All formation experts, please come up as we will open the mystery realm together.”

”Yes, your majesty.”

”It is our honor and duty to assist you.”

*Whoosh*

Every formation expert that is capable of unlocking the portal vanishes from their original position to be near the emperor as they start chanting and drawing multiple symbols.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei was looking at the formation expert works in hope of trying to learn something but couldn't in the end.

'Such inscription is too complicated and with my current knowledge, it is only a pipe dream to try and learn it secretly.' Yang Wei wasn't disappointed that he couldn't comprehend a thing.

He doesn't have any cheating ability besides his soul being a bit more powerful than others.

”Yang Wei, hold my hand as we enter the portal.” While Yang Wei was distracted, Elder Jing suddenly intervened.

”I understand.” Yang Wei didn't misunderstand Elder Jing's intention since he knew about the abnormality of this mysterious realm.

By holding hands, it means that they will not separate in case some turbulence occurred.
