The Silent Hall

Outside the Heavenly Azure Continent, in a corner of the front line where the Allied Forces were fighting against the Extraterrestrial Evil race, a patrol of Extraterrestrial Evil race warriors chatted idly while keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings.

"Captain, I heard that an adult from the tribe will be arriving soon?"

One of the members of the Extraterrestrial Evil race asked with considerable curiosity.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, the captain turned around, his tone surprised.

How did you know?

Since there was no objection, it meant approval, which made the Evil Clan members even more excited.

"I heard it from the Two Hundred and Fifty Squad; one of his brothers is a member of Lord Huanye's personal Guards Camp."

The squad leader didn't react much, just nodded slightly and became alert to his surroundings again.

"If you know, you know; don't talk nonsense."

To everyone's surprise, these words sent a chill down the team member's spine, and his voice trembled.

"Captain... Captain, I didn't tell anyone!!"

"Captain, please investigate!"

"What's with all the wailing!" The captain turned around impatiently again.

"Shut up before I decide to kill you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the team members immediately fell silent.

"Don't overthink things; don't worry unnecessarily."

"What just happened is no secret."

He glanced at the team members with disdain.

"If that's the case, do you really think the news could reach your ears?"

"What I mean is, if you hear it, you hear it, but don't spread it around the camp as a rumor."

"Yes, Captain."

The team members, who thought they had escaped death, wiped away imaginary cold sweat and hurriedly agreed.

"Understood, understood."

The captain looked at the Heavenly Azure Continent, which was so close to them, his eyes filled with deep greed.

"Let these natives enjoy their last moments. The Heavenly Azure Continent belongs to my people."

"Oh? Heavenly Azure Continent belongs to you? How come we didn't know?"

Just as the Evil Clan captain was lost in his own world, a sudden voice from beside him startled him awake. Then, he saw the scene in front of him change instantly. The once empty Extraterritorial Space was now filled with the Heavenly Azure Allied Forces!

"Y-you... it's you!"

"That old man from the Heavenly Azure Continent!"

The captain's eyes widened as his gaze fell on the old man at the front of the group.

Since the two camps started fighting, Yang Jiuxiao, who single-handedly suppressed three Demon Commander, has become a well-known figure among the Extraterrestrial Evil race. This squad leader had only accidentally touched the edge of the battle and then secretly glanced at it before being brushed past by the aftershocks of the battle.

The squad leader never wanted to recall that feeling of being close to death, but it was that one glance that made him remember this old man who seemed like a god.

Do you know me?

Yang Jiuxiao looked puzzled. This shouldn't be the case. When he fought the Demon Commander of the Extraterrestrial Evil race, the surrounding area was cleared out. How could such a weak guy know him?

"Smack!"

The captain didn't answer. Instead, he slapped himself. He thought he must be dreaming. How could he have ended up in a wolf's den while on patrol?

After the intense pain subsided, the scene before me remained unchanged; it was still the same group of people.

"Don't even think about escaping."

"Since you know me, that makes things easier."

"Tell me about your 'elder of the clan,' and I'll give you a quick death."

Yang Jiuxiao's expression was serious. He had only been testing the power of the new Illusion Array, never expecting to hear such shocking news.

Sensing the chilling killing intent surrounding them, the squad leader's expression hardened.

An hour later, in the Council Hall of the Heavenly Azure Allied Forces, everyone stared intently at the two figures entering the hall.

"That guy from the Extraterrestrial Evil race is not bad; I didn't expect him to last so long."

With a wicked smile on his lips Yue Yingye wiped his clean palms.

Shadow Ying Shang, shrouded in darkness, went straight to the point.

"We have the results."

"Oh, thank you both for your hard work."

Yang Jiuxiao's expression softened slightly. The worst thing is to know nothing at all. As long as you know the exact situation, everything will be easier.

"It's nothing. Although the restrictions in that thing's head are a bit tricky, it's not a big deal in the end."

"But..."

With a playful glance over the various expressions on the faces of the people in the hall, Ying Shang in a sinister tone,

"I doubt anyone will be able to laugh later."

"Could you two please elaborate?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Jiuxiao's tone became serious.

"It's nothing serious."

Ying Shang maintained his nonchalant tone.

"A great figure from the Extraterrestrial Evil race will be coming to our place soon."

"Oh, by the way, that important figure seems to be a Demon Emperor."

Demon Emperor?

"I remember my senior saying that the Demon Emperor is equivalent to..."

"The Heavenly Supreme!"

The expressions of everyone on the field changed.

"That's not all."

Ying Shang continues to terrify people to death.

"That Demon Emperor set off from the Extraterrestrial Evil race's stronghold before you arrived, senior."

"In other words, the opponent is stronger than that unlucky guy who was killed by the senior."

"This is beyond the scope of what our Heavenly Azure Continent can handle."

Yang Jiuxiao remained silent, glancing at the two groups of people who seemed out of place in the atmosphere of the hall, and sighed.

"Palace Master Huangfu, Elder Qin, now that things have come to this, do you two still intend to keep us in the dark?"

After being named, Huangfu Shenghua and Qin Hai both stiffened, feeling as if they had been betrayed. They exchanged a glance, and then the former stood up.

"Old Yang, Elder Qin and I do know about that Demon Emperor."

"I suppose you concealed the news because you didn't want to distract us."

Yang Jiuxiao waved his hand, indicating that he understood.

"Could Palace Master Huangfu now inform us?"

"No problem."

Huangfu Shenghua nodded and relayed everything he had learned from Xiao Han.

"The Profound Demon Emperor!"

Yang Jiuxiao was somewhat lost in thought, and gave a wry smile.

"People from our Heavenly Azure Continent are really in high demand!"

This is also the sentiment of everyone. They, whose limit in the plane is no more than the Ten Directions Realm, have actually been targeted by a vicious wolf whose strength exceeds three major realms.

"So, you've already gone to their inevitable path to stop them?"

Are you confident?

Huangfu Shenghua shook his head helplessly.

"I don't know about that."

"But we have no choice but to trust our seniors, do we?"

"Ha, so we're just going to sit here and wait?"

Yan Lie leaned back in his chair and said self-deprecatingly.

Yan Lie's reaction also reflects the mentality of the powerful figures present. Those who can step into the main hall are all absolute powerhouses of the Heavenly Azure Continent, with the lowest level of cultivation being the Nine Palaces Realm.

Having cultivated and grown to this point, they thought there was nothing in the world that they could do nothing about, but reality gave them a solid slap in the face.

The pride of the strong makes it impossible for them to stand idly by while outsiders venture into dangerous situations to protect their homeland.

But reason tells them that all they can do is remain bystanders.

Feeling the silence in the hall, Huangfu Shenghua looked to Yang Jiuxiao for help.

What made him feel uneasy was that the latter, who should have been the pillar of support for everyone, was also silent and lost in thought, clearly having been temporarily discouraged.

"Why are you all so deflated? Can't you even accept something as small as this?"

The sound coming from outside the hall made Qin Hai's eyes light up.
