Lan Haoyun's sturdy frame shuddered.
He snapped out of that collapse of despair.
His eyes lit up as he said in a trembling voice, "I nearly forgot—tonight... an incomparably honored guest is still coming!"
His voice could not conceal his excitement.
Many present recalled that, for this Cold Mountain Night Banquet, the Blue Clan had mysteriously announced that an honored guest from another star domain would be arriving.
Indeed, the reason tonight's contest of the Dao had yet to begin was precisely to await that honored guest's arrival!
Su Yi was very relaxed and did not rush to act.
Wiping out all his opponents in one go would indeed be easy.
But doing so might scare away those enemies who had yet to show themselves.
He wanted to see what sort of honored guest the Blue Clan had invited tonight. Hopefully... they would not disappoint him too much.
Before long, beneath the distant heavens, a brilliant golden rainbow appeared.
A figure stood atop the golden rainbow and tore through the air toward them.
"This humble one, Lan Haoyun, welcomes you, my lord!"
At that instant, Lan Haoyun revealed wild delight and hurried forward at once, his manner deeply respectful.
Everyone looked up and saw that the person riding the golden rainbow was a man who looked to be in his youth.
He wore a jade robe, stood tall and straight, and was wreathed in faint blazing radiance.
Most eye-catching of all was the pair of dual blades hanging from the Jade Robe Man's waist!
"Who is this?"
Many people were startled and suspicious.
An elder of the Blue Clan revealed the answer:
"An honored figure from the Shang Clan, one of the Eight World King Families of the Starry Sky!"
Boom!
The scene erupted as though a pot had exploded.
