Chapter 481 The Calm before the Storm!
481 The Calm before the Storm!
Three days later, in the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.
Gu Xi, Elder Yun, Tong Shan, Tang Conglin, Little Nine, and Song Qingluan were seated in the large living room. Among them, Gu Xi and Elder Yun had rather unsightly expressions.
Three days was neither long nor short. In these three days, the two of them had tried all kinds of ways to find out who the demonic race was hiding, but they had not found any clues. It was as if they had suddenly evaporated from the world for no reason.
Not only that, but even the remaining members of the Blood Spirit Society were nowhere to be seen. It was as if the sect had never appeared in Lanjiang City. This made Gu Xi’s uneasiness rise even higher.
“We have to settle this matter once and for all. Only then will I be able to set off for the Central Plains without any worries. Otherwise, once we leave and they appear again, there will be a storm of blood in the entire Eastern Continent.” Gu Xi sipped the tea in his cup, and his voice was firm.
Although he did not belong to this world, the Eastern Continent was still half his home. He could not just watch the Eastern Continent be plundered by the demonic race from the outer realm.
“I won’t leave before I find them.” Elder Yun smiled and finished the tea in front of him.
Tong Shan and Tang Conglin were stunned when they heard their conversation. The two of them looked at each other and Tong Shan could not help but ask, “Little Friend Gu, which Saints are you’re talking about?”
“Saints?” Gu Xi smiled and shook his head, but his expression gradually turned serious. He looked straight at Tong Shan and continued in a deep voice, “With the current situation, it seems like there is no need to continue hiding it. After all, this is not just about me, it concerns the safety of the entire Eastern Continent.”
Hearing this, Tong Shan and Tang Conglin looked at each other again. They could see the shock in each other’s eyes. The two of them quickly sat up straight and listened attentively.
“I wonder if the two of you have heard of the demonic race and the outer realm?”
The eyes of Tong Shan and the other man instantly widened as disbelief filled their faces.
“The outer realm demonic race? Could it be that they have appeared again?” Tang Conglin cried out, his voice was filled with unconcealable shock.
Gu Xi nodded expressionlessly and no longer hid anything. He told him in detail about his contact with the Blood Spirit Society during this period of time.
“How could this be… Weren’t they chased out of the Four Great Continents by our human race 10,000 years ago? How could it be…” Tong Shan gradually collapsed on his chair as he muttered to himself.
Although Tang Conglin did not lose his composure, he could not hide the shock on his face. The two Branch Masters of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion panicked when they heard the shocking news.
Although the two of them had never had any direct contact with the outer realm demonic race, they had more or less learned about it from the historical records of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.
The return of the demonic race undoubtedly meant that the human race would be plunged into misery and suffering!
“This matter must be dealt with seriously. We must completely eradicate them before they take any action to prevent any future trouble!” Tong Shan quickly adjusted his state of mind and once again regained the dignity of a Branch Pavilion Master.
“I’m afraid it’ll be even more difficult to find them.” Elder Yun waved his hand, signaling for Tong Shan not to be anxious. He continued, “When we were in the Southern Continent, we had already noticed the traces of the outer realm demonic race. At the same time, we guessed that besides recuperating over the years, they had also secretly sent people to sneak into our territory. However, we did not expect that the situation in the Eastern Continent to be this serious. They could even appear in front of our human race openly without us knowing.”
“Although we don’t know what kind of plan they have, we can be sure that they want to get involved and start all over again. These guys who have infiltrated our human race are most likely waiting for that day to come.”
“If we didn’t discover them in time, when they make a comeback, the human race will be troubled both internally and externally because of these parasites. I’m afraid it won’t be easy to drive them out of the Four Continents again.”
As Elder Yun’s voice fell, the living room fell into a long silence.
“Don’t we have any ideas?” After a long time, Song Qingluan spoke softly with a worried look.
Gu Xi was silent for a moment before he said, “We thought we could easily find the demonic race who had infiltrated the Eastern Continent. But now it seems that it won’t be easy. Elder Yun and I have been guessing these days, and their plan to invade the Eastern Continent seems to have been put on the agenda since their identities have been exposed.”
“We may face the invasion of the outer realm demonic race at any moment.”
Gu Xi’s short sentence completely sounded the alarm in everyone’s heart.
“The only thing we can do now is to unite all the sects in the Eastern Continent and wait for that day to come. I believe that day will come soon,” Elder Yun said with a serious face. Even with his current strength of the Emperor-to-be stage, he could not help but feel a chill when he thought of the scene of the crazy invasion of the demonic race.
After all, the strength of an individual was still too small. Perhaps only by combining the strength of everyone could they stand up to the outer realm demonic race!
“I’ll immediately arrange this matter.” Tang Conglin stood up abruptly without any hesitation. “I’ll be summoning the leaders of all the sects and families in the Eastern Continent in the name of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. As for bringing everyone together to fight against these outer realm people, I’m afraid that I’ll have to trouble you to come personally, Elder Yun.”
There was probably no one in the Eastern Continent who would not give Tang Conglin face if he called for a meeting in the name of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion’s headquarters. However, Tang Conglin knew that he did not have the right to bring everyone together. The only person who had the power to say such words was undoubtedly Elder Yun.
“No proble. I’ll also spread this news and let the other three continents make some preparations. They might also be able to send some people to help us,” Elder Yun nodded and said.
Tang Conglin turned around and left quickly.
The people present knew very well that if the demonic race really attacked the Eastern Continent, they would suffer an unprecedented heavy blow! The Eastern Continent’s overall strength was ranked at the bottom of the Four Continents. If they were not careful, the entire Eastern Continent might fall into the hands of the outer realm demonic race!
