Chapter 997 – Enemies Meet (1)
"This person is the famous lord of Chang Ge Hall, Tan Yanzi!" Li Shengyan introduced a female Human Race Saint .
"We've long heard of your name at Chang Ge Hall," said a woman with a gentle and soft voice that sounded like a softly murmuring stream . She looked about thirty years of age and she was a beautiful woman with smooth and fair skin . Her teeth were like melon seeds while her skin was like cream . Her eyes were bright and lively, like moonlight reflected on clear springs . Her blue silk skirts embroidered with cloud patterns were elaborate but elegant and her hair was adorned with red agate and green jade ornaments which made her look even more graceful and noble .
"Greetings, Senior Tan Yanzi," Ye Qingyu said with a smile and cupped his hands in greeting .
Then, Li Shengyan introduced two more powerful Human Race seniors to Ye Qingyu and they were the master of Lightning Spirit Valley, Ye Jueqian and the master of the Towering Cliff Sect, Huang Ye .
Ye Jueqian looked around forty to fifty years of age and he was very burly with muscular limbs . His eyes were like bull’s eyes, his nose was bulbous, his face was angular and his hair was cropped short . He gave off a plucky and unrestrained air that was similar to Hu Bugui, and Ye Qingyu liked him immediately . The master of the Towering Cliff Sect, Huang Ye was a wizened old man with deep wrinkles on his forehead which seemed to be marks of time left on his face . His eyes were as cold and calm as the winter stars but his aura was much weaker than the rest and his face was slightly pale . Clearly, he had spent a lot of energy to get past the Life and Death Platform and there were still many bloodstains and injuries on his robes .
Ye Qingyu greeted them one at a time .
These seniors that Li Shengyan had introduced him to were all highly regarded and very influential in the Human Race . The forces and sects they belonged to were extremely rich in resources, had a long legacy and outstanding status, and were all very prestigious and reputable forces . They were considered amongst the top Human Race forces in terms of power and influence throughout the myriad domains .
Most importantly, the Human Race experts who were with Li Shengyan had definitely received the approval of [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] and were the true cornerstones of the Human Race sects throughout the Vast Thousand Domains today . Li Shengyan had confidently introduced him to them because they were people whom he could trust and depend on and were completely different from people like the Greater One Spiritual Master and Thousand Illusion Elder .
Ye Qingyu was well aware of that fact .
These Human Race experts were also aware of Ye Qingyu's reputation .
Ye Qingyu's feats of battle along the Road of Chaos were unparalleled and outstanding and now that he was promoted to become the Third Deputy Spokesperson of the Human Race, his current status, strength, and cultivation were very impressive . Furthermore, he was someone who had received the recognition of [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei], so they spoke to him as though he was their peer .
After they were all introduced to each other, they started speaking casually amongst themselves .
Those who had made it this far were all the top experts and the forces they represented could not be underestimated . They also each had their own motives for coming to the Reincarnation Hall of the Chaos Demon Emperor but after chatting with them for a while, Ye Qingyu looked a little distracted .
He kept looking back at the group of people who were waiting behind, as though he was searching for something .
As time passed, more and more people continually arrived at the bone platform through the path of bones .
Ye Qingyu grew a little anxious and would often look backward .
"Brother, what are you looking for?" Li Shengyan asked as he followed his gaze .
'Fatty, since you were here earlier than I was, did you happen to see a boorish Human Race man who is tall and bearded, clad in clothes that are full of mended patches, and a… small white dog?" Ye Qingyu asked .
The million-year-old soul had made multiple guarantees but he still worried about the safety of Hu Bugui and Little Nine .
If they hadn’t encountered any danger, Hu Bugui and Little Nine should have arrived at the bone platform by this time .
The other passengers on the same boat, including the Four Stars holy girl, Thousand Illusion Elder and Orchid Saintess, were all absent too . He didn't know whether they were dead or alive .
"Boorish bearded man? A small white dog?" Li Shengyan scratched his bald head and shook his head . "All the Human Race experts who have made it to the mountains of bones are all here . I didn’t see the boorish man you mentioned . As for the small white dog, I don't think I've seen it either . Are they your friends who undertook this journey with you?”
Ye Qingyu nodded .
Old Hu Bugui and Little Nine shouldn't have met with danger but they might not necessarily come here . They would probably each have another chance waiting for them .
Li Shengyan was surprised when he saw how anxious Ye Qingyu was, then he turned to the other Human Races and foreign races to ask around . After he returned, he said, "Brother, no one has seen the man and dog you mentioned earlier . I don't think they've arrived here yet . "
Everyone throughout the Vast Thousand Domains knew that Li Shengyan was a descendant of [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] and could be considered the spokesperson of [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] . Therefore, they would treat him with respect and were probably telling the truth .
Ye Qingyu could only let this matter slide for now .
He shook his head to rid himself of all distracting thoughts and carefully observed his surroundings . Then he said, "Since everyone has gathered here, what are we waiting for?"
Li Shengyan laughed and said conspiratorially, "Look in front of you . "
Ye Qingyu was slightly stunned, then he looked ahead .
There was nothing below the bone platform and demon qi swirled like a sea of clouds . Approximately around a thousand meters from the 'sea of clouds' was a huge black gate .
Ye Qingyu had been too distracted earlier . He had greeted Li Shengyan and worried about the safety of Hu Bugui and Little Nine, so he failed to notice the existence of this gate . When he spotted it earlier in his peripheral vision, he had assumed it was a black mountain range . Upon taking a closer look, he was shocked to discover that it was a huge black gate that was tens of thousands of meters tall and looked as though it had been standing there for ages . It was as black as ink and the more he looked at it, the more it seemed like the end of the world . It blocked out everything ahead of him and he didn't realize it initially but the more he looked, the more alarmed he was since it seemed like all he could see in front of him was this gate .
