Chapter 1012 1111 Overseas Visitor

Chapter 1012: Chapter 1111: Overseas Visitor Chapter 1012: Chapter 1111: Overseas Visitor “Today, you’ve won, but I will fight you again,” Ying Xinghe said to Jian Qingshan, his voice cold.

Jian Qingshan smiled faintly, “I too would relish the opportunity to exchange pointers with Brother Ying.”

“Next time, I will win,” Ying Xinghe stated and then turned around to leave the array platform, his face clouded with darkness, with no one daring to approach him.

Jian Qingshan also left the platform, his demeanor calm, showing little joy from triumphing over Ying Xinghe.

This battle had left the people of Sea Moon City enraptured, many still immersed in the afterglow of the fight.

“Alas, Ying Xinghe ultimately fell just a sliver short.”

“In fact, both are still evenly matched; it’s just that Jian Qingshan’s understanding of the Sword Tao is so profound that he gained a slight advantage.”

“If it were a fight to the death, perhaps the outcome would be hard to call.”

“With this, Jian Qingshan should now be the strongest among the many Talents of Sea Moon City.”

“That’s not necessarily true; defeating Ying Xinghe doesn’t make him the strongest.”

“That’s right, there are still Ling Wushuang, Shen Fan, and Princess Yun Lan who have yet to cross swords with Jian Qingshan.”

“Among other Talents, there could also be formidable characters who haven’t yet revealed themselves.”

“Indeed, it’s too early to declare Jian Qingshan the strongest.”

…

On the VIP stand, the Pingbei King was radiating with vigor, seemingly in a good mood because of Jian Qingshan’s victory.

It was different for Meng Haiwen; as a member of Qing Nation and a vassal of the royal family, he had been hoping for Ying Xinghe’s victory.

Unfortunately, with Ying Xinghe’s loss, Meng Haiwen’s expression wasn’t very pleasant, especially seeing the elated appearance of the Pingbei King made him even more annoyed.

“Prince seems to have taken a liking to a promising young talent,” Ye Mengxian said with a light smile.

The Pingbei King spoke with a smile, “The talent is indeed promising, but it’s still uncertain whether he would be willing to follow this old man to the North Region.”

“I believe Prince will certainly achieve success,” Ye Mengxian complimented.

The Pingbei King’s smile faded, and his tone became slightly grave, “The North Region has not been very settled recently, and there has been increasing activity from the Demon Beasts.”

Upon hearing this, aside from the Lord of Sea Moon City who did not seem to understand, the others appeared to know the inside story, and their expressions turned serious.

“The Demon Beasts of the North Region are also making moves?” Ye Mengxian asked with slightly furrowed brows.

The Pingbei King nodded, “That accursed Silver Fox showed up once, and I wanted to capture it, but unfortunately, I still wasn’t able to seize it.”

“The Blood Abyss Mountain Range has seen that Silver Fox as well; my country has already sent people to investigate,” Tuoba Lie remarked.

The Lord of Sea Moon City, who was oblivious, showed a look of shock. The Ten Thousand Demon Plains beyond the northern border of Tang Country and the Blood Abyss Mountain Range near Yuan Country were common grounds for the activities of the Demon Clan, even calling it the land of Demon Beasts wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

Although the Lord of Sea Moon City did not know what the Silver Fox was, it seemed to be of significant consequence, otherwise, it wouldn’t have changed the expressions of the four men.

“Heavenly Demon Ridge also has reports of the Silver Fox’s appearance,” Ye Mengxian sighed.

“What?” The moment the words were uttered, Pingbei King, Meng Haiwen, and Tuoba Lie all exclaimed in shock, slightly losing their composure.

Even the Lord of Sea Moon City felt his heart skip a few beats, overwhelmed with astonishment.

Heavenly Demon Ridge, this was a forbidden place, rarely mentioned by anyone, for it was the birthplace of the previous Demon Saint. It was shrouded in numerous legends and inhabited by unimaginable powerful Giant Demons, all guarding the sacred birthplace of the last generation’s Demon Saint.

The Demon Beasts that emerged from the Heavenly Demon Ridge were without exception immensely strong; at the very least, they were terrifying beings on the level of a Six Transformations Giant Demon King.

There were warriors from the Nine Countries who had gone to explore the Heavenly Demon Ridge, but they never returned and were never seen again.

Heavenly Demon Ridge was the Demon Clan’s Holy Land, and the ancient Sacred Tree of the Demon Clan also took root there.

The Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree only rooted in the birthplace of each generation’s Demon Saint. Although the previous Demon Saint had disappeared, he had not perished, so the Sacred Tree still existed within Heavenly Demon Ridge.

“Has the Silver Fox gone to Heavenly Demon Ridge because it intends to persuade those old Demon Beasts to appear?” Pingbei King said, his voice heavy with concern.

Ye Mengxian shook his head, “We don’t know yet. Although the people I sent from the Pill Alliance have gathered some intel, they couldn’t get close to Heavenly Demon Ridge. Even our Nine Guards from the Pill Alliance nearly lost one or two of their ranks.”

“It’s not just Heavenly Demon Ridge; that Silver Fox has also appeared on Ancient Demon Mountain, which is the news brought back by Prince Yang Wanshan after he returned severely wounded,” Meng Haiwen interjected.

“Even a place as ancient as Ancient Demon Mountain has begun to stir? It seems the situation is truly about to change,” Pingbei King stated gravely.

Ancient Demon Mountain was indeed an ancient place, harboring many Demon Beasts that have survived from ancient times, remaining in isolation from the outside world. Even when the current Demon Saint was born, these Ancient Demons did not show themselves.

But now, the Silver Fox had even visited this ancient land, signaling that its actions had reached a critical point, and a great shift was likely imminent for the Demon Beasts across the world.

“The war in the Seven Seas is approaching, and even the Demon Beast clan is restless. Truly, this is an autumn of troubles,” Ye Mengxian sighed.

“To ward off external threats, we must first ensure internal stability. We can set aside the Seven Seas conflict for now. Matters of the Demon Clan must be dealt with first,” Tuoba Lie declared.

His words received agreement from the others; this sentiment was shared among the Three Emperors and the Pill Alliance alike.

To ward off external threats, we must first ensure internal stability. No matter how pressing the conflict in the Seven Seas might be, the matters concerning the Demon Clan had to be addressed first, or else the consequences were unimaginable.

…

Over the vast sea, a fierce wind howled, raising monstrous waves.

Soaring above the sea’s surface was, incredibly, a page of a scroll.

As large as a Flying Boat, the scroll was inscribed with bold and vigorous characters, each flashing with brilliant light.

Standing on this scroll were three figures, one old man and two youths.

“As we head to Sea Moon City, we will see if the talents of the Nine Countries indeed deserve to be called ‘Talents,'” said the elder, clad in a simple and elegant white robe, his spirit shining brightly as he spoke.

In the elder’s hands were a bundle of bamboo slips, and he exuded an air of refined and graceful elegance, resembling not a martial artist of unfathomable strength, but rather a scholar well-versed in a multitude of books.

The two young people beside the elder, a man and a woman, were both well-dressed; the man had his long hair neatly tied behind him, his face fair, with a Longsword hanging at his waist.

The girl was sitting on the scroll, her fair jade legs dangling in mid-air, swinging back and forth, a straw stalk in her mouth, her beauty breathtaking, appearing to be only sixteen or seventeen years old.

The sea breeze brushed past, causing the small bell hanging at the girl’s waist to chime brightly.

The trio was traveling from the land across the Seven Seas, heading straight for Sea Moon City on the opposite coast.
