Chapter 1071: Expert of The Long From Ethereal

“Fuck, you’re screwing me over.” Bi Ningshuai said.

“Calm down, this is an important matter, you might be the person to change the path of Sixth Central. Just think about it, the historical annals will depict how you, the great thief Bi Ningshuai, stole the ruler’s seal all by yourself. You traversed the palace untethered and changed its fate. You will be immortalized.” Feiyun said.

Ningshuai glanced at the ruler’s seal, clearly tempted.

Suddenly, a gray shadow appeared with lightning speed and grabbed the seal from him. Feiyun couldn’t believe it since he didn’t even have time to react.

“Grandpa!” Bi Ningshuai stared at the uninvited third party.

It turned out to be his grandpa who rubbed the ruler’s seal with both hands. His eyes lit up as he said: “This is really the ruler’s seal in the legends. Now, I have it in my hand, my Thief Gate’s fame will rise meteorically!”

“Ahem, you didn’t steal it, Grandpa.” Ningshuai corrected.

The old man put the seal away and said: “This is a chance to go down in history, little one, don’t take it from me. I will bring it to the treasury right now, the whole world will know my name.”

He left and the worried Ningshuai followed right behind him.

Feiyun heaved a sigh of relief. This grandpa-grandson duo was rather weird. He had no choice but to rely on them right now.

Meanwhile, many guests have arrived at the banquet. The majority were young geniuses while the territory lords were situated on the floating palaces instead.

“Enveloping Territory Lord of Twelfth Central is here!”

“Godly Demon Monarch of the White Spider is here!”

Big shots and even demons have arrived. Their presence caused quite a stir in the palace.

Feiyun also saw a white figure flying into the palace with a sword on her back. She only appeared for a moment before leaving.

“Xuanyuan Yiyi.” Feiyun was impressed by her speed.

“Feng Feiyun, I am under the order of the great deity. I must take you to Aquamoon this time.” Suddenly, she appeared behind him with a veiled hat on to hide her supreme face. Her aura was serene and holy.

Feiyun turned around and smiled: “Long time no see, Saintess. Looks like you have improved again, are you at the eighth level now?”

“You are stronger than before as well.”

Feiyun had phoenix eyes while she had a brilliant dao heart. Though she didn’t know whether he has reached the ninth level, she was certain that he must be at the eighth level due to his strength.

“I was reproached by the deity after returning.” She went on.

“Oh?”

“It was because I started learning the sacred truths.” She said.

“You should have kept this a secret. You’re lucky that Shui Yueting didn’t kill you.” Feiyun smiled.

She has grown used to his disrespectful attitude toward the deity: “The deity said that cultivating the sacred truths before reaching Heaven’s Emergence is risky. It will lead to an unstable dao heart and the chance of qi deviation increases tenfold.”

“But you didn’t suffer qi deviation.”

“That was because the deity helped me consolidate my cultivation. She used a thousand years of energy for this.”

“Shui Yueting is a selfish woman, she must be wanting to use you somehow.” Feiyun said with disdain.

“The deity is not selfish, I will not tolerate any more disrespect from you. It will be death.”

“She told you to come get me?” Feiyun paused for a while before asking.

“The deity invites you to Aquamoon as a guest.”

“She probably wants to know why I know the secret of Heart Meditation Sword Scripture and then kill me afterward.” Feiyun said.

She shook her head, thinking that he was too distrustful of everyone.

Suddenly, black clouds appeared above with lightning bolts and thunderous detonations. A bolt as thick as a bowl aimed for the main palace.

“Boom!” A half-circle barrier appeared and protected the city. Nonetheless, it pulsed violently after being struck.

This was a barrier created by ninety-nine formations - extremely hard to break. The fact that it became unstable was a testament to the lightning bolt’s power.

“State your name, unruly scum.” A scowl came from the main palace.

A man in silver armor revealed himself among the clouds. A great golden dragon coiled around him as he rode a roc.

This roc blotted out the sky. Each wing flap created violent tornadoes.

“Sixth Center belongs to the Long and now, it has been taken over by villains. We are here today to get rid of you.” The man raised both hands and gathered lightning bolts.

A thicker draconic bolt descended and broke through the barrier, destroying an altar below. Burning oil started flowing outward chaotically and burned the nearby palaces.

The experts of the Long have returned.

Feiyun looked up and murmured: “The royal clan has someone like him? Impressive.”

“Enough!” Heaven Director stepped out from a palace and stomped the ground, freezing all the burning oil. A chilling air enveloped the entire palace.

“The punishment for interrupting the oath banquet is death.” He held a whisk and glanced at the man.

“Instead of being a daoist, you choose to become Azure Lord’s dog. I will get rid of you in Grand King Ancestral Grotto’s stead.” The man declared.

Remember that Heaven Director was one of the three strongest followers under Azure Territory Lord. Other territory lords didn’t wish to fight him at all.

“What’s an ancestral grotto?” Feiyun whispered. He didn’t know much about the great powers in the human kingdoms and became curious.

“This is a lineage from the ancestors of the humans, it’s not in the real world in space but rather, an independent dimension. There are many grottos, not just one. Their status is above the dynasties. They normally do not interfere in internal competitions, only when the human race is at risk of extinction.” She answered.

He nodded. It turned out that there were other mysterious lineages among the humans.

“Quite confident, aren’t you? If you wish to fight me, state your name first.” Heaven Director’s eyes resembled two polished jewels. They shot out two rays upward.

“Long Aotian, Clan Master of the long from Ethereal Dynasty.” He answered thunderously.

“Ethereal Dynasty?” Feiyun murmured and vaguely recalled this place. He might have traveled there before in his previous life.

For the majority of demons, they only knew Ethereal Dynasty - the largest kingdom of humans. He thought that this was the main representative of the humans and haven’t heard of Jin or even Sixth Central.

The strongest humans gathered in Ethereal Dynasty, most likely eighty percent or so. Its other name was First Central.

Cultivators in other dynasties would come to First Central after reaching a certain realm. Only those staying at First Central could be considered the top dogs of the human race.

It seemed that the Long had a branch in First Central. Long Aotian was the clan master there.

This revelation caused quite a stir. No wonder why he was so arrogant.

“This is Sixth Central, not First. Clan Master Long, you wish to compete for the throne?” Heaven Director sneered.

“If I ever gave a damn, I would have taken the spot ten thousand years ago. I just don’t appreciate you scums staining the royal clan and humiliating my clan members.” Long Aotian responded with both hands placed behind his back.

The great eagle issued echoing roars and agreed with him.
