After a dozen or so breaths:
"Boom!"
Dozens of streaks of light landed in front of the main hall.
"Great-aunt!"
Dongfang Jinglong stepped forward first and hurriedly entered the hall.
Dozens of mid-level deacons also hurriedly followed her into the hall.
Chen Qingyu leisurely lagged behind, curiously examining the furnishings in the main hall.
"Greetings, Great-Aunt!"
Dongfang Jinglong stepped forward and bowed deeply to the Jade-Faced Emperor Venerable.
"I came back too late and almost made a terrible mistake..."
"It's not too late, you've come back just in time."
The Jade-Faced Emperor Venerable smiled slightly, glanced at Dongfang Jinglong, and suddenly his expression froze.
What about the King of Creation?
What about the Heart of Myriad Realms?
As far as she knew, these two supreme treasures could not be stored in a spatial Mystic Artifact, and if they were carried with her, they would definitely possess an extremely strong aura.
Why can't she sense it at all?
Could it be that...?
The Jade-Faced Emperor Venerable's heart trembled. He barely managed to maintain his composure, but his heart sank straight to the bottom.
"Could it be that Jinglong failed? He didn't bring back the treasure at all?"
"Then isn't my Dongfang Clan facing annihilation today...?"
If Dongfang Jinglong does not return, then she should rightfully back down and give up Parasol Tree Island, thus preserving the Dongfang Clan.
But nowadays:
Upon hearing that Dongfang Jinglong had returned, Dongfang Lie and the others were all excited and showed such obvious malice towards the Great Emperor Linggan.
Even she couldn't suppress her thoughts and had the idea of killing someone, which was probably sensed by the Great Emperor Linggan.
Will the Great Emperor Linggan let them go?
I'm afraid that even at the risk of mutual destruction, they will completely eradicate the Dongfang Clan and eliminate any future troubles!
"Oh no!"
The Jade-Faced Emperor Venerable felt a chill in his heart and for a moment he didn't know how to speak.
"It's getting lively here..."
At this moment, Chen Qingyu also entered the hall, speaking with a smile.
The appearance of a stranger immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
Especially the Great Emperor Linggan, who narrowed his eyes and stared intently at Chen Qingyu, as if trying to see through him completely.
"This person is unknown, and I'm afraid he'll be difficult to deal with..."
"Um?"
The Jade-Faced Emperor Venerable's expression shifted slightly.
"Who is this person? Did Jinglong bring him back?"
Her strength was far inferior to that of the Great Emperor Linggan, and she was not as adept at sensing all things or possessing an exceptionally keen divine sense as the Great Emperor Linggan.
So much so that she only noticed Chen Qingyu's arrival after he entered the main hall.
"This person came to Parasol Tree Island without me sensing anything... He must be extremely powerful!"
Thinking of this, her mind suddenly became active:
"If it really was brought back by Jinglong, then there might still be a chance for things to turn around!"
"I just don't know how strong this person is, whether he can hold his own against the Great Emperor Linggan..."
"Oh, by the way, great-aunt."
Dongfang Jinglong also realized what was happening, and pointed at Chen Qingyu, who had just entered the hall, and solemnly said:
"Let me introduce you, this is..."
" Quasi-Emperor Taiyu!"
Suddenly, a shocked, shrill roar interrupted him.
Everyone instinctively turned to look and saw the old man in black robes with a shocked and horrified expression, as if he couldn't believe his eyes!
" Quasi-Emperor Taiyu?"
The Jade-Faced Emperor Venerable, the Great Emperor Linggan, Dongfang Lie, and others were all taken aback.
The next moment:
Almost everyone in the hall paled at once!
"Tai... Quasi-Emperor Taiyu?!"
The Great Emperor Linggan's heart pounded wildly, his eyes widened, and a storm raged within him.
Within the Chuanming Dao Domain, there may be Quasi-Emperor with the same name;
But there is only one person in the entire world who can make the Zhou Clan patriarch of Sanhe Island lose his composure like this!
That is the personal disciple of the Supreme Star Venerable, whose fame has resounded throughout the Three Thousand Dao Domains in just a few years, the legendary Crown Prince of the Supreme Star Palace!
" Quasi-Emperor Taiyu?"
The Jade-Faced Emperor Venerable was utterly astonished, his body stiffening.
"He is the Quasi-Emperor Taiyu? This... how is this possible?"
"Wasn't he in the Star Sea? How did he end up in the Chuanming Dao Domain, and even on my Parasol Tree Island?"
If even the two Emperor Venerable were like this, then Dongfang Lie and the many elders and deacons were even more dumbfounded, staring blankly at the white-robed youth.
"Oh?"
Chen Qingyu turned his head and looked at the old man in black robes, a hint of interest in his eyes:
"You recognize me?"
Although his name and title have resounded throughout the Three Thousand Dao Domains, few people know his appearance.
After all, those who participated in the apprenticeship ceremony that day were either from the Star Sea or envoys of the Heavenly Lord. There should be very few portraits or photos of him in the Three Thousand Dao Domains.
"I, this..."
"Zhou Mingyang of the Zhou Clan of Sanhe Island pays respects to the Young Palace Master!"
His body trembled slightly, his heart filled with unease and extreme fear.
" The Zhou Clan Sanhe Island..."
Chen Qingyu paused for a moment, then suddenly realized:
"So it was you guys."
Back then, when he first entered the Star Sea to compete for the Taihao Essence, the flying boat he rode was a "friendly gift" from the Zhou Clan Sanhe Island.
Later, at the Pavilion of Stars, he even had a "sparring" session with Zhou Daochen, the Daoist Dao Son of the Zhou Clan.
At that time, he thought it was unlikely that he would run into a powerful Quasi-Emperor family like the Zhou Clan of Sanhe Island, so he figured he might as well offend them.
But what he didn't expect was:
Creation is truly wondrous; he actually encountered the patriarch of the Zhou Clan of Sanhe Island —at such a time, and in such a capacity.
"Oh..."
He chuckled softly and said:
"I'm not that petty, and you don't need to be so afraid."
"I wasn't the one who suffered back then. So many years have passed, let's just forget about it."
As he spoke, he raised his hand to indicate:
"Get up."
"Yes!"
Only then did the Zhou Clan patriarch dare to stand up, bowing his head and speaking with utmost respect:
"Thank you for your understanding, Young Palace Master!"
Those in the hall, witnessing this scene, guessed what was going on:
It seems that the Zhou Clan of Sanhe Island had some kind of conflict with this young palace master a long time ago, which is why the Zhou Clan patriarch recognized him at a glance.
" Jinglong..."
The Jade-Faced Emperor Venerable took a deep breath, trying to remain calm, but his voice trembled slightly involuntarily:
Aren't you going to introduce me to them?
"Oh."
Dongfang Jinglong responded, glanced at the Great Emperor Linggan, and said solemnly:
"This is none other than the personal disciple of the Supreme Star Palace Master— Quasi-Emperor Taiyu!"
Her words struck everyone in the hall like a giant hammer, leaving them Divine Capital!
No one, no force in the world, dares to impersonate or usurp the name of a Heavenly Lord!
Without a doubt:
The man before us is none other than the true disciple of the Heavenly Lord, the Crown Prince of the Supreme Star Palace — Quasi-Emperor Taiyu!
"Greetings, Young Palace Master!"
The Great Emperor Linggan acted the fastest, bowing deeply without a word, his head almost touching the ground, his attitude extremely respectful.
"I, Yang Zhengang from Spirit Communication Island, am truly fortunate to have met the Young Palace Master today! May my blessings last a thousand years!"
