486 Announcing the News
In the huge meeting hall, everyone was complaining at the same time.
Tong Shan and Tang Conglin looked a little embarrassed. They quickly ordered the maidservants of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to calm the crowd down, but it didn’t work.
“Since Pavilion master Tong has thought of so many ways to gather us here, you must have something important to announce, right?”
After a while, a middle-aged man stood up and said with a smile.
“There is indeed something very important that I have to inform everyone here. This matter concerns the survival of the entire Eastern continent, so we decided to deceive everyone. I hope everyone can understand.”
Tong Shan clasped his hands at the crowd apologetically and continued,”However, this matter is not for the two of us to announce, but for someone else.”
With that, the complaints gradually died down. Everyone was confused, clearly not expecting the two to not be the ones who had gathered them.
“This matter was under this old master’s instructions. I’ve delayed everyone’s time, so this old master apologizes to you now,”
A voice suddenly reverberated through the entire Hall. Everyone present hurriedly looked left and right before finally finding the owner of the voice behind the two.
Yun Zhiyi, dressed in a long white robe, slowly walked out from behind Tong Shan and the other man. He then calmly sat down in the middle seat.
“Who is this person?”
“Hmph, you wasted our precious time, and now you want to get rid of us with just a sentence?”
With elder Yun’s appearance, a portion of the people present clearly recognized his identity. They, who were full of complaints earlier, immediately shut their mouths. The majority of the remaining people clearly did not know elder Yun well. Instead, they became even angrier when they saw elder Yun’s attitude.
On the other hand, elder Yun did not pay much attention to the complaints and doubts of the people below the stage. His gaze slowly swept across the crowd below the stage, and his expression gradually became serious. He said in a deep voice, ” “I’m sure everyone here is curious as to why I’ve gathered all of you here. Just like Tong Shan said, I have a matter that concerns the survival of the eastern continent that I need to inform you of.”
“I say, this senior, you used the name of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to gather us together and wasted so much of our time. You can’t just let it go with an apology, right?”
Seeing that Yun Zhiyi had ignored everyone’s complaints, one of the men could not help but speak up.
Hearing this, Yun Zhiyi’s brows twitched. Tong Shan and Tang Conglin beside him did not know whether to laugh or cry. They could not help but break out in cold sweat.
Who was Elder Yun? He was a true Emperor-to-be cultivator!
Where did this guy get the guts? Did he not want to live anymore?
Tong Shan and Tang Conglin looked at each other. Just as they were about to explain, Yun Zhiyi waved his hand and stopped them. The two of them had no choice but to keep quiet and look at the man with pity in their eyes.
“Since an apology isn’t enough, what else do you want?” Yun Zhiyi chuckled, his voice emotionless.
“For Pavilion master Tong and Pavilion Master Tang’s sake, you should at least compensate us with everything you have. I think the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion is a big family and business, so it shouldn’t be lacking in these things,” the man said with a shameless smile.
As his voice fell, not many people at the scene dared to echo him. Some people even looked at the man in surprise, as if they were surprised that he still dared to raise conditions.
Even though they did not know Yun Zhiyi’s true identity, they could tell from the respectful attitude of Tong Shan and Tang Conglin that this seemingly ordinary old man on the stage must have an extraordinary identity!
“Impudent! He’s simply lawless!”
Before Yun Zhiyi could respond to the man’s words, a scolding voice suddenly rang out from the crowd. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Zhan Wushuang pointing at the man and scolding him.
“Do you know who Elder Yun is? It’s your honor to be here today, yet you still dare to ask for something so shamelessly?” Zhan Wushuang’s face was filled with anger, and that man was clearly stunned by this sudden scolding. Initially, he wanted to retort, but when he saw that the person who spoke was Zhan Wushuang, he instantly swallowed his temper. He could only nod his head in agreement with an awkward expression.
“Elder Yun is a true Emperor-to-be cultivator! This time, we had no choice but to use the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to summon us here. I hope that everyone here will not act insensibly. Otherwise, even if Elder Yun doesn’t teach you a lesson, I, Zhan Wushuang, will not let you all get away with it!”
As soon as he said that, the entire meeting hall fell into a dead silence.
Everyone looked at each other in shock, as if they had heard something unbelievable.
What was the concept of an Emperor-to-be cultivator?
Among the sects present, it was rare to see a Great Saint, not to mention an Emperor-to-be cultivator, which was an extraordinary existence!
“It’s fine.” Yun Zhiyi chuckled and glanced at Zhan Wushuang indifferently. Immediately, an unparalleled fluctuation surged out of his body and enveloped everyone present in the blink of an eye. It immediately made everyone’s legs go soft. The man who did not know what was good for him earlier was so scared that his face turned pale and he collapsed on his seat, not knowing what to do.
“This old master won’t continue to beat around the bush with you.” After a simple display of his power, Yun Zhiyi retracted his aura. The attitude of the crowd had also undergone a 180-degree change. Everyone’s face was filled with admiration, completely different from the dissatisfaction and complaints from before.
“I wonder if you have heard of the demonic race from the outer realm?” Elder Yun’s expression became unusually serious at the mention of these words.
The people below looked at each other and then nodded.
Elder Yun, are you talking about the demonic race that once invaded the Four Continents of the human race 10,000 years ago?” one of them stood up and asked respectfully.
Yun Zhiyi slowly nodded and continued, “I’ve gathered all of you here to tell you one thing. The outer realm demonic race, which had once plunged our human race into misery and suffering 10,000 years ago, is about to make a comeback!”
Whoosh-
“How is this possible?!”
“Are you kidding me? Haven’t they been driven out of the Four Continents by the human race a long time ago? The world is peaceful now, and there are no signs of them!”
Yun Zhiyi’s short words were like a deep water bomb that stirred up huge waves in the crowd. In addition to the shock, the crowd clearly did not quite believe Elder Yun’s words at this moment.
