1216 Visitors from the Earth Continen (1/2)

In the capital of Li Nation in the Xuanhuang Continent, a glorious glow bloomed above the clouds, like a gigantic round altar hanging across the sky, with bright strands of runes flowing in the air, and at the center a gap opened to the Void, where there was infinite darkness.

In the capital, the Emperor, all the officials and ministers, the aristocratic families, and great figures of various academies or sects were all gathered.

”They're here, they're finally here!” The hands of the Emperor were trembling he was so excited. He was at the peak of the Earth Celestial Stage and a nation's ruler, but at this moment there was not a trace of his imposing demeanor.

”It is reported that the largest forces from the Earth Continent have arrived!” A man dressed in official's clothing said in a serious tone.

Everyone was feeling uncertain and there was a clamor.

”Is there some grand event happening in the Xuanhuang Continent? Why are all those big shots here?”

”Something is amiss. We received news from them yesterday. They said they're here for a visit, but it doesn't look that simple.”

”Yes, the largest force in the Earth Continent of the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm is the Litian Academy, followed by the Yunchen Academy, Linglong Hall, Wucang Pavilion, Heavenly Moon Palace, and so on. They were all forces affiliated with the Exploding Heavens Faction, and they all have come to the Xuanhuang Continent! This is absolutely unusual!”

”The question is...the Li Nation in the Xuanhuang Continent is not the most powerful. Although is ranked in the top ten, if all those big shots are really coming down, why wouldn't they go to the most powerful Lu Nation instead? Why did they deliberately choose Li Nation?”

Everyone looked at the glow in the sky, and their doubts grew stronger and stronger.

Meanwhile, within the darkness at the center of the glow, a large number of figures were emerging. In the dim light, the crowd seemed to see a dog and an old man in the lead, and behind them a massive amount of silhouettes—it was akin to the descent of 1 million Demonic soldiers. There was an imposing aura shaking Heaven and Earth!

Those who were present, including the Emperor, the hundreds of officials and ministers, as well as many powerful forces, were unable to restrain the trembling of their knees.

”Li Baihe, the Emperor of Li Nation, respectfully welcomes all the seniors and elders from the Earth Continent for a visit.” Immediately, the Emperor of Li Nation lowered his head and covered his chest with one hand and spoke in a manner of respect and awe.

Subsequently, the people behind him all followed suit, and they shouted in unison, ”Welcome all the seniors and elders from the Earth Continent for a visit!”

Bam!

Then many figures in the clouds took a step forward. Buttface and Duan Jiude were in the lead. They were followed by Qin Xiangtian, the Dean of Litian Academy, Qin Sanli, the Deputy Dean, and many elite disciples from the Litian Academy. Then the Dean, Deputy Dean, and many elite disciples from the Yuncheng Academy, the Linglong Palace, Wucang Pavilion, Heavenly Moon Palace, and so on.

Everyone looked only at Buttface and Duan Jiude, ignoring all the others.

Duan Jiude scanned the surroundings and said, ”I've counted. The dude is in this area called Li Nation. Let's split up and search for him now!”

”Duan Jiude, Your Holiness condemns you. Make a clearer calculation now. Li Nation isn't that huge, but it's not small either. If we searched the whole nation, it would take more than ten days. Your Holiness is impatient.”

”D*mn it. If you're so good at it, then you do it. If you can't stop complaining. I can at least tell you that the dude is in the south of Li Nation.”

”South it is, all right, let's go now. The dude is so dangerous and mighty, but he's in danger now. I'm afraid there's been a mishap, and we must save him now. Otherwise, no one can take revenge for the humiliation we suffered in the Heaven Continent!”

”Tut, tut, tut, if that kid knew what happened to Jiang Hongyan in the Heaven Continent, I'm afraid...”

”I'm afraid, your *ss. Your Holiness is really angry this time. If I didn't go back and seek revenge with the dude, Your Holiness's Mighty King's King will be written in reverse!” Buttface was fuming with anger and was showing a rare expression of ferocity that only happened once in 100 years—ferocity like a wolf.

Buttface waved his hands and hollered, ”Let's go south with Your Holiness!”

”Yes!” Behind him, the Litian Academy and all the other forces shouted in unison. It was magnificent, their roar was deafening!

Many of the aces in the Li Nation were horrified, and they couldn't believe what they were seeing and hearing.
