In January of the following year, the envoys of the Northern Region's demon kings finally arrived in the Dragonreach Waters.
Looking at the Five-Finger Divine Mountain towering into the heavens, they could not help shedding bitter tears.
This was bullying demons too much!
There was no helping it. The Northern Continent was far away, and its geographical position was exceptionally peculiar.
The hurricane belt was home to the divine birds, the Phoenixes. Under the pressure of their phoenix aura, how could they dare approach? They could only keep dodging and detouring through the hurricane belt.
And that Phoenix couple was quite capable of causing trouble. Phoenix True Qi was scattered throughout the vast northern hurricane belt.
The demon envoys spent over a month before finally emerging from the hurricane belt.
Who would have thought they would plunge headlong into the Dragon King's Burial Ground within the northern thunderstorm region?
Another month and a half passed before they escaped in a bedraggled state. Who would have thought they would then run into sea-patrol envoys and be captured back to the Jade Sage Pavilion's mountain gate?
Only after the investigation was complete did they arrive in the Dragonreach Waters under Yuwen Chunqiu's guidance.
Seeing their condition, Yuwen Chunqiu could not help feeling moved as well.
"Fellow Daoists, now that you have reached the Dragonreach Waters, you may rest easy... But—"
"But what?"
"The Dragonreach Waters are currently under martial law."
The demons were greatly alarmed. "There are patrols here too?"
"Not to that extent. It is simply that the Fu Family is busy with something major. The entire Eastern Yanlong Region is under martial law to guard against people with ulterior motives causing trouble."
The Four Auspicious Continent was being established.
