Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 212: Chapter 210: The Arrival of the Grand Power (Seventh Update!)

The platform was so vast that it seemed as if the entire Demon Beast Mountain Range had been carved out for its creation, made of white rock that spread into a smooth expanse.

Myriad Treasures Pavilion, as a Grand Power, had every action eliciting awe and wonder from onlookers.

The platform resembled a square, which appeared somewhat vacant compared to the dense crowd of people below.

Members of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion stood on all sides of the platform, preventing others from entering.

To step onto the platform, one required an invitation from the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, and the entrance to the Gate of Deer Chasing was located right atop this platform.

“Look quick, it’s the Golden-Winged Roc Bird from yesterday!”

“So shocking, that Golden-Winged Roc Bird must be nearly a hundred meters wide, right?”

“The ancients said, ‘With one flap of its golden wings, it covers ninety thousand li.’ Although this roc isn’t of pure breed, it’s still quite formidable.”

All of a sudden, exclamations burst from the crowd as everyone looked up.

A golden light was arriving from afar, dazzling like the sun.

With a pair of gigantic wings outstretched, it emitted a divine rosy glow, and as it cried out to the heavens, that sharp voice was piercing, as if it could penetrate one’s soul.

On top of this Golden-Winged Roc Bird stood dozens of individuals, led by two elders.

Both white-haired and looking as though they had lived for an eternity, one could not sense any Cultivation Base from them, yet no one would doubt that these two were terrifyingly powerful.

Behind these two elders stood a young man dressed in golden garb.

The man’s features were handsome, his long hair draped over his shoulders, and his fair skin had a softness that could rival that of a woman’s.

“Chang’an Mountain Gate, Young Master Mo Jiuyou has arrived——”

A piercing voice rose from the platform, seemingly welcoming him.

“Chang’an Mountain Gate?”

“Holy shit, it’s the First-Class Sect Chang’an Mountain Gate!”

“Indeed, only those terrifyingly formidable could make an entrance like this, and it turns out to be a First-Class Sect!”

“It looks like Young Master Mo Jiuyou’s status is very high within the First-Class Sects, if not a Young Sect Master, then certainly an extraordinary genius.”

Many in the crowd showed faces of envy, silently lamenting how fortunate one must be to have such parents!

Amid their astonishment, the Golden-Winged Roc Bird landed slowly on the platform before letting the man in golden clothes and the two elders off, then, with a scream to the sky, it flew off into the distance.

“Someone else is coming!”

“My god, riding on a Green Phoenix?”

“Just like the Golden-Winged Roc Bird, neither is of pure breed. In this day and age, where could one even see a purebred Green Phoenix?”

“Pfft, who cares if it’s not purebred? Do you have one?”

A flash of green lightning streaked rapidly across the sky from afar.

As it flew, a massive black trail flashed behind it, leaving onlookers dumbstruck.

It was as if a swath of the sky had been torn asunder!

The speed of the Green Phoenix was so fast that even the void couldn’t block it; it directly broke through the sky!

“Young Master Ye Longhe of the Ye Family has arrived——”

At the same time, that piercing voice rang out once more.

As the voice fell, the Green Phoenix opened its beak and spat out a dash of Qingmang.

When it exploded midair, dozens of figures shot forth from the burst, landing directly on the platform.

One young man in particular stood out, his green robe almost touching the ground, with a Seven-Colored Feather Fan in his hand. As he casually waved the fan, those with keen eyes could see that each wave caused ripples to appear in the space beside him.

“The Ye Family? Never heard of them.”

“They must be some reclusive grand family; otherwise, they wouldn’t arrive riding a Green Phoenix.”

“Legend has it that the Green Phoenix holds a strand of the Phoenix’s True Essence Bloodline, wildly unyielding. The fact that the Ye Family managed to subdue it implies that their strength is terrifyingly formidable.”

As for the ‘Ye Family,’ evidently, not many people knew about them.

Their astonishment was not as great as when the Chang’an Mountain Gate had made its appearance earlier.

But what happened next shocked everyone.

They saw Mo Jiuyou of the Chang’an Mountain Gate hurriedly rising to his feet with a smile as soon as Ye Longhe landed on the platform, as if nervously welcoming him over.

“The Ye Family has always been famous for its many geniuses. Moreover, there are rumors that a member of the Dragon Clan once visited, and it’s said that Young Master Ye even absorbed a drop of Dragon Blood, thereby renaming himself Ye Longhe. Congratulations, congratulations,” Mo Jiuyou said with a smile.

“Hmm.”

Ye Longhe simply gave Mo Jiuyou a cursory glance and then, waving his Seven-Colored Feather Fan, coldly took a seat to the side.

And his demeanor left everyone in shock.

“My God, what kind of force is this Ye Family, that even Young Master Mo Jiuyou of a First-Class Sect doesn’t matter to them?”

“Looking at Young Master Mo Jiuyou’s expression… it seems like he’s trying to curry favor with him!”

“In this world, there are indeed many hidden grand families. Those Top Ten Super Sects are only the ones known overtly. The Ye Family must be one of those concealed clans.”

Ye Longhe’s indifference and Mo Jiuyou’s flattery were noted by many, completely overturning their preconceived notions.

In the eyes of these people, a First-Class Sect was already an existence akin to the divine, and Chang’an Mountain Gate was particularly renowned among First-Class Sects.

Yet unexpectedly, Young Master Mo Jiuyou of Chang’an Mountain Gate was actually trying to ingratiate himself with Ye Longhe, a figure with no apparent prestige!

“Young Master from the Ling Family, Ling Xiao, has arrived—”

At that moment, that sharp voice once again cut through the air.

“The Ling Family? Where are they?”

People looked around, but there was no sign of anyone anywhere.

“Crack!”

Suddenly, thunder rumbled in the sky. A thunder pillar ten meters in diameter tore through the void, descending from the heavens and striking squarely on the platform.

However, it seemed to be intentionally controlled, as the platform remained intact, and the thunder pillar quickly dissipated.

After the thunder pillar vanished, several dozen figures appeared on the platform.

Among them, a short-haired youth stood out. He had a smiling face, a handsome appearance, and a tall figure dressed in luxurious brocade robes.

He stood out not because of his looks but because… the several dozen figures around him were not human. They were all Demon Beasts, resembling humanoid fierce apes, each exuding a remarkably formidable aura.

It was the presence of these Demon Beasts that made the youth so conspicuous.

“Is this… another concealed family?”

“Truly terrifying, those Demon Beasts must be at least at the Fourth Order, right?”

“Those two beside Ling Xiao are definitely Fifth Order.”

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Ling Xiao. Upon his arrival, he first greeted Mo Jiuyou and Ye Longhe with a fist salute, and then he saluted the entire assembly in the same manner before slowly taking his place at the spot designated for the Ling Family.

“This man seems quite amiable, leaving a very good impression,” the spectators thought to themselves.

Meanwhile, in the crowd, Su Han’s eyes suddenly widened in disbelief when he saw Ling Xiao, and an expression of utter shock emerged on his face.

“How is this possible?!”

Ps: The minor characters of our story are gradually making their appearance, but since there are too many and most of them are almost the same, South Mountain cannot possibly include them all.

It would be better to change some of their personalities and backgrounds; South Mountain will make a point of selecting carefully~

And for those already cast as minor characters… isn’t it a bit shameless not to send any tips, haha!
