Today, Di Family and the other heaven's pride experts were going to the Xia Wang Jie to verify their dao!
Countless figures gathered at the central region of the Haotian Island. With a single glance, one could see a sea of people, the majority of which were at the Emperor Realm or below. However, there were also quite a few Emperor Realm people, and all of Di Family's juniors were gathered here.
The group of people standing at the very front of the crowd were none other than the young elites of Di Family's generation. Every single one of them had stepped into the Emperor's Realm, and their bodies radiated an aura of supremacy.
The one leading them was the current prince, Di Shifeng.
Today, Di Shifeng was dressed in a purplish-gold robe. He stood with his hands behind his back, his robe fluttered without any wind, and an emperor radiance faintly shimmered on his body. He stared at the space in front of him with eyes as deep as the starry sky.
However, the people behind Di Lan were not Di Lan, Di Hao, or anyone else. Instead, they were all young men who were unfamiliar with them. There were a total of eight people.
They stood there quietly with no aura released from their bodies, just like ordinary people without cultivation. From the contours of their faces, they seemed to have cultivated for a longer time than Di Shifeng and the others, and their temperament seemed to be more mature and stable.
These eight young people, were the strongest eight among Di Family's younger generation. The weakest had stepped into the peak of the Middle Rank of Monarch Stage, and the strongest had reached the middle stage of the High Rank of Monarch Stage!
Moreover, among these eight people, four of them were direct disciples of the family head, and the other four were disciples of the senior elder Di Family. Their status in Di Family was very high, and they were respected by countless of disciples.
Among these eight people, the sixth disciple of the clan head, Di Litong, was also present. As for the other two previous disciples, they had already stepped into the Emperor Realm and didn't plan to head to Xia Wang Jie.
Beneath the Saint Stage, all eight of them had the qualifications to enter Ling Mountain. This time, the reason why they were heading to Xia Wang Jie was to try and see if they could reach Ling Mountain.
In the middle of the air, there were many intangible auras. Many people raised their heads and stared at the skies, only to discover that in many directions, a resplendent immortal light was shining, causing those who saw it to be unable to see it clearly.
They rarely came out, but the Xia Wang Jie opened once again after five hundred years had passed, so the fact that a True Monarch had chosen a successor in the Ling Mountain could be considered a great event for the Boundless Sea. Furthermore, it was said that the prince would also come to visit this time, so they specially came out to take a look.
Qin Xuan, Mo Lishang, Murong Guangzhao and the others were also in the crowd. However, their seats were at the back and they seemed inconspicuous in the vast crowd.
Qin Xuan's eyes were calm without a single ripple in his heart. He was like an outsider looking at the golden age before him. This golden age belonged to Di Family, and it had nothing to do with him.
All he wanted was revenge.
The hatred of Master and Qing Cloud Knife Saint was like a mountain weighing down on his heart. If he didn't avenge this debt, he wouldn't be able to return and explain it to the crowd.
However, in the Haotian Island, Di Shifeng had many strong warriors following him. Even if there was no one by his side, if they could not capture him instantly, there would be people who would come to help him in the shortest time possible and he would not be able to do anything.
Hence, this trip to the Xia Wang Jie was the best opportunity for revenge.
"Whew."
Accompanied by a gust of wind, in the nine heavens above, an extremely resplendent glow of an emperor scattered down, continuously spreading outwards, and the light of an emperor seemed to envelop the entire Haotian Island, causing many people to immediately raise their heads, looking at the divine light that filled the sky, their eyes revealed a sense of reverence and respect.
"We pay our respects to the Patriarch!"
A voice as loud as a bell rang out, instantly resounding across the entire Haotian Island. Countless people bowed in one direction, their expressions respectful and their actions shockingly uniform.
At this moment, powerful silhouettes that hid in various directions appeared. Most of them looked like elderly people with white hair, eyebrows, bones of immortals, and an ethereal aura, as though they were true immortals.
Although they didn't bow in worship, their gazes were all looking in that direction to show their respect.
"Patriarch Di Family?" Qin Xuan's eyes were glued onto the dazzling light from the overlord. Faintly seeing it, a slender silhouette could be seen striding through the light with a speed so fast that the naked eye couldn't catch it.
In the blink of an eye, the silhouette appeared in the sky above them. It was as majestic as a mountain, bathed in divine light that filled the skies. It was as though it was a supreme Deity, causing people to involuntarily feel a sense of subservience, wanting to kneel down and worship it.
This peerless figure was none other than the current Patriarch of Di Family, Di Zhangkong!
Di Zhangkong looked down at the crowd below him. Instantly, an incomparably powerful surge of will engulfed the area, sweeping over everyone and causing their hearts to tremble uncontrollably. They felt that their clan lord was looking at them with reverence and reverence, wanting to gain their clan lord's attention.
Qin Xuan also felt an invisible thought sweeping over him. He looked at the figure in the sky, but his eyes were very calm. The thought seemed to have detected something and stopped on Qin Xuan for a while longer before leaving.
A moment later, Di Zhangkong retracted his thoughts. He turned his gaze in the direction of the crowd and asked, "You're not from me, where are you from?"
The hearts of the crowd couldn't help but tremble when they heard Di Zhangkong's voice. Who was it that was so lucky to have obtained the attention of the clan lord?
Momentarily, the gazes of the crowd all followed Di Zhangkong's line of sight, all converging onto a silhouette. The expression on the faces of the crowd all turned strange. Why was it him again?
Ever since he came to the Haotian Island, he had always been the focus of discussion. The commotion caused by the Dao Debate a few days ago had not passed, yet now, it was actually personally brought up by the patriarch. Many people were extremely curious, just how did he do it?
His figure could be seen everywhere, and he couldn't stop even for a moment …
"This fellow..." Mo Lishang and the others looked at Qin Xuan and could not help but feel a little worried. That was Di Family's chief, whose status was equivalent to Lord of Gods' Palace. In front of such a terrifying existence, they did not have many secrets.
Di Shifeng's gaze also landed on Qin Xuan. He was also surprised. Donghuang Yu's position was not conspicuous and he did not do anything special. Why did he get the attention of the Patriarch?
Moreover, he was the only one who was questioned by the clan head. This made him seem even more intriguing.
"Junior Donghuang Yu greets the chief." Qin Xuan's countenance was as calm as ever, bowing respectfully in the direction of Di Zhangkong.
"Donghuang Yu." "So you are the one who barged into the Haotian Island and injured several of my juniors, and even came here to participate in the test? Since you are from the Eastern Emperor, and you came here to participate in the test, you didn't punish me for the matter, and seeing me just now, your eyes were calm. Could it be that this Patriarch Di Family of mine isn't worthy of your respect?"
As the sound of Di Zhangkong faded, the hearts of the crowd all twitched as they looked at Qin Xuan in disbelief.
He was actually still able to maintain his calm after seeing the Patriarch?
As for some people, they had other thoughts in their hearts. Indeed, the chief's thoughts were everywhere, and with a single glance, one could see what he was thinking. This was the strength of the chief.
After being questioned by Di Zhangkong, Qin Xuan's expression remained as calm as ever. He looked at Di Zhangkong and cupped his hands, "Senior is mistaken about junior, Senior is Patriarch Di Family, the person standing at the peak of Boundless Sea, how could junior not feel respect? It's just that this is the first time junior has seen senior's graceful bearing, and not someone like Di Family, so I don't have much of an impression of him."
Qin Xuan's tone was calm as he explained slowly, giving people a feeling of calmness.
Many people looked at Qin Xuan, praising him in their hearts. Donghuang Yu was truly from great power, even if it was a terrifying Saint Dao Realm existence, he would still be able to calmly face them. If it was them, they would not be able to do anything.
Of course, perhaps it was like what Donghuang Yu said just now. They were people of Di Family, so they were deeply impressed after meeting the Patriarch.
"I hope nothing will happen." Mo Lishang, Yan Qingyun, and the rest were all paying attention to Qin Xuan's situation from different directions. From Di Zhangkong's tone, although there were a few hints of interrogation, he wasn't really that angry.
At his level, his existence had already made light of many matters, so how could he care about the thoughts of a junior? Perhaps he was just curious, so he asked.
"Is that so?" Di Zhangkong glanced at Qin Xuan, his calm eyes were unfathomable. It was as if he had seen through everything, and then he said, "When we return to the Eastern Emperor, remember to tell the Eastern Emperor that he owes me a favor."
"Eastern Emperor?" Qin Xuan muttered in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged. He nodded and cupped his hands: "I will definitely convey your words."
Although Qin Xuan did not know who Eastern Emperor Tian was, but for a person that was personally mentioned by Patriarch Di Family and even claimed that the other party owed him a favor, then he must be a great character of the Eastern Emperor, or maybe even the patriarch of the Eastern Emperor!
At this moment, Qin Xuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was too difficult!
He didn't know anything, yet he still had to impersonate as the Eastern Emperor. Furthermore, he had penetrated deep into the enemy's heart, feigned camaraderie, calmly conversed with the enemy. If there was even the slightest mistake, he would die without a burial ground.
However, compared to the sacrifices that Master and Senior Qing Yun had made for him, what was this danger?
Di Zhangkong's gaze had long since shifted away from Qin Xuan. Earlier, he had only asked casually. Since they were people of the Eastern Emperor, it was understandable for them to treat him calmly.
People of the Eastern Emperor would only sincerely fear the strong.
If it was him, Prince Di Family, who was heading to the Easternmost Island, and saw the big shot of the Eastern Emperor, his heart probably wouldn't be in much of a turmoil. After all, he wasn't a member of his clan.
