At this moment, an expert from the Clear Sun Lineage chimed in, "Our luck is truly too good."
It really was luck. Everyone now knew that Xiao Luo Divine Sect had provoked the Black-Clothed Youth only to find a pretext that would make their attack seem justified, yet Xiao Luo Divine Hall had never dreamed they would kick an iron plate.
"Do you think this Black-Clothed Youth is really very young?" someone else asked in a low voice.
Everyone trembled slightly. Someone immediately said that he could not possibly be young, that he was likely at least over forty; otherwise, there was simply no way he could have cultivated to the Divine Venerable Realm. One had to know that among the nine hundred geniuses participating in the Sea Cave Battle, the highest realm was only the God King Realm.
But reaching the Divine Venerable Realm at forty was already utterly, utterly terrifying.
"Wait, why do I keep feeling that this Black-Clothed Youth looks somewhat familiar?" Suddenly, another person from Clear Sun spoke up.
The moment his words fell... Report!
A young Clear Sun general charged in, clutching a portrait that trembled wildly in his hand. Looking at Ling Yu and the others, he said, "Elder Ling Yu, someone in Clear Sun City produced this portrait and identified the Black-Clothed Youth's origins."
With that, he handed the portrait to Ling Yu...
The Clear Sun experts hurriedly looked at the portrait. Then, one after another, their mouths fell open. They looked at each other, unable to believe it.
After a long while, they nearly spoke at the same time in hoarse voices, "Seal Sovereign... Sikong Jing!"
An icy chill instantly gathered throughout the entire spatial hall. Everyone, Ling Yu included, shuddered violently...
This portrait was naturally the one the Heaven-Soaring Imperial Family
