Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1286: Chapter 1285: So-Called Geniuses

”Esteemed Seniors, the Sect Master requests your presence. The Dragon Martial Assembly convenes today, and we hope all seniors will proceed to the Dragon Martial Hall.”

Early in the morning, a disciple from the Jade Void Palace arrived outside the palace.

”Understood,” Mancheng spoke.

As the disciple withdrew, everyone stood up and headed towards the Dragon Martial Hall.

...

The Dragon Martial Hall was not far from the palace where Su Han and the others were staying, and soon they arrived there.

Upon entering, they saw that Super Sects like the Holy Spirit Palace were already present. However, on the side of the Five Great Super Sects, there were only a few at the Dragon Emperor Realm present, and figures like Sect Masters had yet to arrive.

In the center of the great hall, there was a main seat, and at the sight of this seat, many people’s brows furrowed.

All present were from Super Sects, none could claim superiority over the others. For whom was this main seat reserved?

If it were for Nangong Duanchen, it would make sense, but as soon as the people from the One Slash Palace entered, a top-ranked disciple from the Jade Void Palace immediately received him and seated him at a spot below the main seat.

Clearly, this main seat was not prepared for Nangong Duanchen.

Su Han felt nothing amiss, merely following the reception staff to his seat, then closed his eyes to rest.

Across from him sat a woman. She was beautiful and slender and was looking at Su Han.

Her name was Yin Luoxuan.

Seeing Su Han close his eyes to rest, Yin Luoxuan remained silent for a moment, then suddenly said, ”How have you been all these years?”

”Can’t say if it’s good or bad, but I’m still alive,” Su Han replied indifferently.

Yin Luoxuan fell into a slight silence, then continued, ”I heard you entered the Barren Land? How is it there? Were you besieged by the Extraterritorial Demons?”

Hearing this, many pricked their ears and looked towards Su Han.

Su Han suddenly opened his eyes, staring directly at Yin Luoxuan, ”What does this have to do with you?”

Yin Luoxuan paused, unable to respond.

The Sword Saint Xu Huo next to her, however, frowned and said, ”Sect Master Su, our Princess of the Sect of Peace was just inquiring, is there a need to be so confrontational?”

Su Han glanced at him, smiling faintly, ”You are not qualified to speak to me.”

”You!”

Xu Huo was immediately angered, recalling that Su Han was once nothing more than an ant in his eyes, yet now dared to speak so boldly.

The aura around Su Han was completely restrained, even at the Dragon Venerate Realm, Xu Huo couldn’t discern Su Han’s true Cultivation Base, let alone himself.

However, with members of the One Slash Palace present, Xu Huo repressed his anger and held back in the end.

All the major powers were engaged in private communications, discussing what the Five Great Super Sects intended.

At this moment, the high-level figures of the Five Great Super Sects finally appeared.

A large group of shadows entered from outside the hall, led not by the Sect Masters of the Five Great Super Sects, but by a young man.

This person’s face was very pale, not a normal fair, but one that was somewhat frighteningly white.

His hair was blue, resembling the purple-haired man Su Han encountered in the Barren Land, different from ordinary people.

This young man exuded a strange aura, releasing a presence that Su Han discerned clearly as the Dragon Venerate Realm Mid Stage.

Everyone could feel it, not just him.

Aside from Su Han and Nangong Duanchen, others’ pupils contracted sharply upon sensing the aura.

”A Dragon Venerate Realm so young?”

”This person must be one of the geniuses descended from the Starry Sky.”

”Indeed worthy of being a genius from the Starry Sky, how could this person be over forty? At forty, I was still at the Dragon God Realm!”

”They are from the Starry Sky, how can we compare with their talent?”

”Such frightening talent!”

As people whispered, the young man walked forward without acknowledging anyone.

He directly sat on the main seat, and on both sides, many young men and women followed, seemingly showing respect for him.

These young men and women all exuded at least the aura of the Dragon Emperor Realm.

To be at such a realm at their age, and in such numbers, made the people of these Super Sects sigh, for the Starry Sky truly is what it is.

On the Dragon Martial Continent, even the most talented could not achieve this. Almost all at the Dragon Emperor level had lived for hundreds of years or more, incomparable to these geniuses.

Behind these people were the Sect Masters of the Five Great Super Sects.

Master of the Sword Immortal Tomb - Qiu Tianren!

Palace Master of the Jade Void Palace - Xiao Ye!

Island Master of Giant Island - Liushui Yun Jing!

Sect Master of the Sect of the Battle God - Emperor Wu!

Sect Master of the Immortal Dao Court - Jun Hanxin!

The Deputy Sect Masters and similar figures from the Five Great Super Sects were also present, like Kong Yu, Zhang Xuelin, and Jun Yize.

These people, upon appearing, smiled and nodded to the Sect Master-level figures of various Super Sects.

Finally, they sat just below the young man, in the closest positions.

None spoke as they watched this scene, some frowning, waiting for the words from the Five Great Super Sects.

”Ahem...”

Finally, a moment later, the Sect Master of the Sect of the Battle God spoke first.

”Let us begin with introductions.”

Emperor Wu said, ”No need for us to introduce ourselves, as we are all familiar with each other. Today’s main purpose is to introduce these seniors from the Starry Sky.”

”Seniors?”

Many frowned at Emperor Wu’s terms.

The flattery was blatantly clear.

The young man at the Dragon Venerate Realm Mid Stage might warrant such a title, but what about the early-stage Dragon Emperor Realm young men and women? What qualified them as seniors?

Even the young man, speaking of age, was not older than them; calling him a senior seemed excessively obsequious.

Nevertheless, Emperor Wu continued, seemingly unaware of their thoughts. ”Seated at the main position is a genius from the Starry Sky, one of the Three Teachings, and a member of the Divine Dao Religion, Xu Que.”

Following his introduction, the young man finally glanced around, nodding slightly.

”Beside me is another genius from the Starry Sky, from one of the Seventy-Two Sects, the Ming King Sect, Luou Ling.”

”And this peerless beauty is also from the Starry Sky, a genius from the South Heaven Sect, one of the Seventy-Two Sects, Cheng Shanshan.”

”And this individual...”

In the following time, which lasted almost two hours, Emperor Wu introduced everyone, referring even to those at the early-stage Dragon Emperor Realm as seniors.

The geniuses were evidently very satisfied, scanning the crowd with arrogant gazes, much like when Su Han first encountered Donghua Leng and the others.
