e corpses to the restroom. A burst of dan fire shot out, turning them all into ashes within seconds. Then he rushed into the sewer.He walked out of the room and said to the two people at the door, "Le...Tianshui Pavilion was not too far from the Imperial City of Daxing Empire, and after a few hours, the three people arrived at the city gate.

At this moment, the place is decorated with colorful lights and lanterns, with thousands of people gathered here, as if welcoming someone's arrival.

At the forefront of the crowd were two white-haired elders, Zhao Fangsuo from Shenjian Mountain Villa and Lei Wanjun from Leiyun Sect.

Both were Supreme Elders, holding the highest positions, even higher than the Sect Master. Behind them stood the disciples of the sect.

Everyone else was just watching, wondering who these two powerful sects were waiting for here.

These people were naturally waiting for Ye Bufan. Seeing that the Genius Demon War was about to begin, they guessed that Ye Bufan should be returning in these few days and had been waiting at the city gate for a full three days.

Xiao Wan Yi and three others arrived here, after seeing the situation they also joined the team and waited here together.

I just thought it was a bit much, all this fuss over waiting for a young man here.

Even Zhao Fangshuo and Lei Wanjun were waiting here, so she naturally couldn't say anything.

She wasn't the only one with this thought. Many of the onlookers were uninformed, and astonished that three great sects would show such respect to a single person.

Not only outsiders, but even disciples from Leiyunzong and Shenjian Villa, some of them were unaware of what was going on. As time passed, impatience began to grow among them.

"What's going on Who are we waiting for"

"I heard he's waiting for a young man named Ye. I really don't know what kind of person he is to make us all wait here..."

"Well, I just don't know where he gets all that face..."

Although these people spoke in hushed tones and softly, Zhao Fangshu and Lei Wanjun were such discerning individuals that they could hear every word clearly.

Lei Wanjun turned his head and swept his gaze across the entire crowd: "All of you, be silent! If anyone dares to utter another word, this old man will personally expel him from the sect!"

Seeing the Supreme Elder become angry, everyone immediately shut their mouths, afraid that they might unwittingly incur his wrath.

But people are becoming more and more curious. What could that young man have done to be so respected by the two Supreme Elders

After a while, several figures suddenly appeared in mid-air, dashing over from the direction of the teleportation array.

Qin Biyao said, "Is this Ye Yixian back"

Others also share this view, thinking that it must be Ye Bufan who has returned.

The distant figure moved incredibly fast, appearing before the crowd in just a few breaths. It descended from mid-air, completely different from what anyone had expected.

There were more than ten people who came, led by two white-haired old men. The one in the middle had a powerful aura, having clearly broken through the Refining Void realm and reached the early stage of Great Ascension.

The elderly man standing beside him was slightly weaker, but his cultivation level was also at the peak of the Void Realm.

A young man in his twenties stood beside them. He wore a white robe and held a paper fan, an arrogant expression on his face.

There are still seven or eight young people left, the lowest cultivation of whom is at the Nascent Soul stage.

The white-haired old man at the front glanced at everyone present, a playful smile on his face: "Zhao Fangshuo, Lei Wanjun, are you two old ghosts welcoming me"

After seeing his face clearly, Lei Wanjun's expression changed: "Hua Tianpu, you shouldn't be staying in Tianwu Prefecture. Why have you come to my Tianluo Prefecture"

Originally, this group of people came from the Huayun Sect in Tianwu Prefecture. The elder at the front was Hua Tianpu, the sect master of the Huayun Sect. The other elder was Hua Tianxiong, the Great Elder, and the rest were elite disciples of the Huayun Sect.

Zha Fangsuo and Lei Wanjun had fought Hua Tianpu during the Genius Demon War back then. Years have passed, and the latter has become a master of a school. It's strange how he suddenly appeared in Tianluo Prefecture.

The most crucial point is that the opponent's cultivation level has advanced much faster than theirs. They have even reached the Great Ascension stage, though it's only the initial phase. However, this is a world apart from the peak of the Void-Dwelling realm.

Hua Tianpu let out a hearty laugh: "Old man, I'm here to inform you all about something. This time, the quota for the Heavenly Demon Showdown from Tianluo Prefecture is ours."

Zhao Fangshuo's face darkened: "What do you mean by that"

Huatian Pu said proudly, "What Don't you understand what I'm saying It means none of you need to go. Our Huayun Sect will participate in the competition."

Hua Tianxiong said to them, "That's right, your Tiānluó Zhōu's strength is too weak. You are all just ants. Going there would only embarrass yourselves and waste the opportunity."

"In that case, it would be better to yield the quota and have our Huayun Sect take over."

Originally, Huayunzong's strength in Tianwuzhou was not ranked at all. There was only Hua Tianpu, a cultivator at the early stage of Great Ascension, at most considered to be the weakest among the nine-star sects.

In this situation, wanting to participate in the Genius Demon War is practically impossible. Facing numerous powerful sects, they wouldn't even have a chance.

This year, Hua Tianpu suddenly had an idea: to take the quota for Tianshenzhou for himself. This way, his disciples would have a chance to participate in the Genius Demon Competition.

So this guy brought people here, aiming to steal the spots.

His words caused the expressions of everyone present to change. Regardless of whether they were eligible to participate in the Heavenly Demon Hegemony Battle, this was a humiliation for all cultivators in Tianluo State.

"Bah, you're daydreaming!"

Le Wanjun was furious. "Hua Tianpu, don't daydream! The quota belongs to our Tiantuo Prefecture, none of your business. Get lost!"

"You don't have the qualifications to speak to me like that. You're not very capable, but you have a big temper."

Hua Tianpu's face darkened after he finished speaking, his powerful aura suddenly erupted, and the oppressive force belonging to a great cultivator swept across the entire venue.

"Um..."

Before Tianluo Prefecture, the strongest was the Baxing Sect, with the highest cultivation level being the peak of Dongxu. Most people had never seen a powerhouse at the stage of Great Ascension in their lifetime.

Under the immense pressure, one by one, faces turned pale and they kept retreating. Despite their large numbers, they were in disarray.

Although Zhao Fangshuo and Lei Wanjun fought desperately, they were still unable to withstand the pressure of a cultivator at the Great Ascension stage. They retreated several steps in succession before barely managing to regain their footing.

Fortunately, Hua Tianpu only did it to assert his authority. As soon as he had made his point, his imposing air dissipated and he quickly returned to his usual calm demeanor.

"Damn you old bastard! What do you think you're doing Are you going to just steal it"

“Whether we grab it or not doesn’t matter, we’re just stating a fact.”

Huatian smiled complacently and said, "The strength of your Tianluo Prefecture is truly too weak. Not to mention the younger generation, every time you go in a game, you can't win and end up returning in disgrace."

"In this situation, there's no need to waste the spots. Just give them to us directly, and we can all avoid any hard feelings."

"You..."

Lei Wanjun and the other person's eyes were blazing with anger, their faces flushed red, but they had nothing to say.

What they said is true after all, since Tianluo State always has the worst results in every competition.

"Sect Master Hua, you're wrong. We were weak before, but this time Tianluo Prefecture is definitely not."

Her words were forceful and came from Qin Biyao, who had stepped forward.

"You speak well, but do you really have the capability"

Huatian Pu let out a disdainful chuckle: “As long as you young generations can have the threshold to enter the Void Core Stage, this old man won't say a word and will leave immediately. But do you have it”his hand and found that it was ajar. He slipped inside without a sound, landing silently on both feet.The Shadow's experience was extensive. After landing, he didn't rush into action, but instead wise...
