Chapter 2867: Chapter 2842: Lin Bai’s Old Friends!
September 13th, powerful figures from the Song Clan of the God Ghost Impassable Mountain and the Su Clan from the Everlasting Night City, which are part of the Four Hidden World Families, arrived in the Imperial City of the Great Witch Dynasty.
The warriors who came from the Su Clan were led by an ancestor of the Su Clan, named Su Cheng, and among the accompanying warriors was the first Tianjiao of the Su Clan, Su Ziyang.
As for the powerful figures from the God Ghost Impassable Mountain, they were led by an ancestor of the Song Clan, named Songyun He. Accompanying them was a Tianjiao disciple, named Song Changle!
The Four Hidden World Families showed great respect to the Great Witch Dynasty and the East Continent Academy by sending an ancestor and a Tianjiao disciple, demonstrating the importance they placed on this conference.
September 14th, the strong warriors from the East Continent Academy arrived!
Inside the Golden Palace, the eunuch hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty, the East Continent Academy has arrived!"
The Great Witch Emperor’s eyes flashed as he said, "Arrange for them to stay in the Imperial Residence exclusively for the East Continent Academy. Which warriors have come from the East Continent Academy?"
The eunuch said, "Led by Gu Daozhi, the other three ancient families have also sent some revered powerful figures, but none compare in status to Gu Daozhi!"
"In addition, almost all the quasi-saint children of the East Continent Academy have arrived!"
"Gu Xi, Gu Xing, Jian Kong, Huo Fentian, Lin Yibing, Tu Ziyun, Blackstone Roland Sword Nine, Leng Qianxue, Chen Qing, Shangguan Qi, Kong Lianxin, Kong Mo, Zhaohai Qing, Li Jiuge, Lan Yuxin, Hua Muqing, Wang Qing, Zhang Xianqi, Xing Hen, Fang Yi, Chen Qing and others are all resting in the Imperial Residence."
The Great Witch Emperor said, "These quasi-saint children contributed the most in the battle with the Demon Sect six months ago, they should be present!"
The eunuch said, "Besides, some quasi-saint children who did not attend six months ago are also here today!"
"For instance, the Eastern Courtyard quasi-saint child Ning, Yin Jiuling, Pale Old Strange Man, Half-human Giant Beast, the Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers, Feng Wenjun, Shi Jiamu, and Hu Qi!"
"They’ve all come as well!"
"Moreover, Fang Yiyun, Wu Ming, Changsun Yun, Shu Xiang, Meng Li and others have also come along."
The Great Witch Emperor’s eyes flashed with joy and said, "It seems that the strong ones among the younger generation inside the East Continent Academy have mostly gathered here."
The eunuch nodded, "Indeed!"
The Great Witch Emperor said, "Alright, I understand. You may go and make the arrangements. Tomorrow is the Demon Slaying Conference, I don’t want any mishaps. Also, ensure the security of the Imperial City is top-notch!"
"Has the Empress of Shenwu Kingdom arrived?"
At this moment, the Great Witch Emperor asked again.
The eunuch said, "At dawn today, the Empress of Shenwu Kingdom arrived at the Imperial City of the Great Witch Dynasty. According to Your Majesty’s instructions, we have settled the Empress in the Imperial Residence exclusively for Shenwu Kingdom."
"Good!" The Great Witch Emperor laughed heartily and said, "Brace up, after tomorrow, the most powerful force in the East Continent will inevitably be our Great Witch Dynasty!"
"Hahahaha!"
The eunuch promptly flattered, "Then allow me to congratulate Your Majesty in advance for dominating the East Continent!"
The Great Witch Emperor had a conceited smile on his face.
...
Great Witch Dynasty, inside the Imperial City, within the Imperial Residence of the East Continent Academy.
In a secluded courtyard of the Imperial Residence, seven or eight warriors stood side by side in the yard.
"It seems a lot has happened in the East Continent while we were away," an old man squinted slightly, smiling as he spoke.
Beside the old man, a strong man like a mountain sat cross-legged, muttering to himself, "Eat meat, eat meat..."
These two were surprisingly the Pale Old Strange Man and the Half-human Giant Beast!
Nearby, a gray-robed young man stood silently, his eyes lifeless, as if nothing in the world concerned him.
His gaze was indifferent to everything.
"Yin Jiuling, do you know where Lin Bai is?" At this moment, a stern-faced man asked the gray-robed youth.
The gray-robed youth, Yin Jiuling, shook his head, indicating he was not sure.
The man asking was Ning.
In the courtyard, there were also four naturally disabled men, and at this moment, they said, "It’s said that Lin Bai mysteriously disappeared after arriving in the Great Witch Dynasty, no one knows where he is."
These four were surprisingly the Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers.
Then, in a corner of the courtyard, a man and woman nestled together, spoke up, "I’ve already asked the warriors of the Feng Family to investigate, I believe it won’t be long before there is news!"
This pair was surprisingly Feng Wenjun and Shi Jiamu.
A strong man dressed in animal skins sneered and said, "My intuition tells me, Lin Bai’s disappearance in the Great Witch Dynasty must be connected with the Great Witch Dynasty!"
The people gathered here were surprisingly Lin Bai’s friends from the East Continent Academy: Yin Jiuling, Ning, Pale Old Strange Man, Half-human Giant Beast, Feng Wenjun, the Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers, Shi Jiamu, and Hu Qi!
Ning took a deep breath, his face solemn as he said, "It seems this Demon Slaying Conference is not as simple as we imagined!"
As these few in this secluded courtyard raised their heads, suddenly a few warriors walked outside the courtyard, Yin Jiuling and Ning both raised their heads, looking towards outside the courtyard.
At the entrance, five warriors walked in.
Their leader was an old man, followed by three men and one woman.
"Senior Fang Yiyun!"
Immediately, Ning stood up, clasped fists, and said.
Fang Yiyun chuckled, "I’ve been looking for you for a long time, didn’t expect you to hide here."
The one who came was surprisingly Fang Yiyun, the four following him were Changsun Yun, Shu Xiang, Meng Li, and Wu Ming.
Pale Old Strange Man smiled and said, "I wonder what Senior Fang Yiyun is seeking us for?"
Changsun Yun, with a cold face, said, "Lin Bai has disappeared in the Great Witch Dynasty, did you know?"
Ning slightly nodded, "Senior Fang Yiyun is also concerned about Lin Bai?"
Before Fang Yiyun could speak, Meng Li said, "When we first entered the East Continent Academy, Lin Bai also trained under Master Fang, he’s considered half a disciple of Master Fang!"
Ning came to an understanding and nodded, "That’s how it is!"
Wu Ming said coldly, "Can we stop with the nonsense?"
Shu Xiang, with an urgent and eager expression, looked at everyone in the courtyard and said, "I know you are all close friends with Brother Lin Bai, now Brother Lin Bai is in trouble, please don’t stand by!"
Ning’s eyes flashed, he hurriedly asked, "Where is Lin Bai? Do you know his whereabouts?"
Upon hearing Shu Xiang’s words, Yin Jiuling, Pale Old Strange Man, Feng Wenjun, the Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers, Shi Jiamu, and Hu Qi all raised their heads, looking at Shu Xiang.
Yin Jiuling asked, "Where is he? Is he still alive?"
Fang Yiyun nodded, "He’s still alive for now, but probably not for much longer!"
