"Our human race has another saint. No matter who he is, it is a joyous occasion. Besides, I have invited all of you here today to announce another joyous occasion."
Old Master Su ordered the servant behind him.
Everyone in the hall knew that the main event was about to begin. There were seven or eight high-level physique masters in the banquet tonight. They were either important military officials or elders of great nobles. The Three-Eyed Race had always kept a low profile and had never held such a large-scale social banquet. There must be something important to announce.
After a while, a man and a woman walked into the side hall. The one in front was a handsome young man. The vertical pupil between his eyebrows seemed to be opening and closing, with a faint silver light flashing.
Behind him was a cold and elegant woman in a light blue evening gown.
Everyone immediately recognized who the woman was, and they all stood up in surprise.
For high-level physique masters, there were not many people who could be treated so respectfully, and the Royal Qian Family was one of them.
The cold and elegant woman was the Ninth Princess Qian Yunyao, the daughter of the Great Emperor of Dongyuan.
Although the Royal Family was not as powerful as before, they were still righteous. They were the nominal rulers of the human race and the leader of the nobles.
In this era where the strong were respected, the strength of an individual would be infinitely magnified. The saints represented the highest strength.
Both Taoism and Buddhism emphasized a clear mind and few desires. They had a tradition of avoiding the world. It was basically impossible to avoid the world, but they tried their best not to get involved in karma or right and wrong.
Therefore, Yunshan and Dragon Saint Ling Hong of the Longyang Temple would not get involved in the power struggle. Only the Way of Sound was not bound by this ideology. Therefore, the Royal Family became the supreme ruler of the human race.
What surprised them was why the ninth princess of the royal family would show up at the banquet of the Three-eye Clan. Although the Imperial Qian Family and the Senate controlled by the Three-eye Clan were not like fire and water, the relationship between them was very tense. Could it be …
The Ninth Princess bowed expressionlessly as a form of greeting.
Everyone knew of her cold personality, so naturally, they didn't mind.
Elder Su frowned slightly and pointed to the young man behind him. "This is my grandson. He just became a physique master last year. His name is Wenlin. Come and greet your uncles."
The young man hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the crowd. "Junior Su Wenlin greets Seniors."
Old Master Su smiled and said, "Wenlin has always been in the south. Recently, I've been planning to build a mecha flying team, so I called Wenlin over. Please take care of me in the future."
Everyone said, "Of course."
Xi Shangdan said respectfully, "Brother Su's disciples are all dragons and phoenixes among men. I heard that there's even a young lady who was accepted as a personal disciple by the Sacred Teacher?"
"Haha, that's my granddaughter. She's really lucky."
Pleased with himself, Old Master Su continued, "Today, Wenlin has officially entered the military world. There's one more thing. Wenlin will be engaged to the Ninth Princess. Everyone, please be our witnesses!"
Everyone present was stunned. This news was indeed shocking. The marriage between the royal family and the Three-eyed Tribe meant that the two great powers were about to officially unite!
The Three-eyed Tribe had always been one of the Four Great Families. There was even news that once the Sound Saint Qian Kongjin passed away, the Senate controlled by the Three-eyed Tribe would propose a motion to remove the Xi Family from the throne.
However, now that the royal family had the support of the Three-eyed Tribe, their position would definitely be more stable. The Three-eyed Tribe would also officially enter the military.
A few people couldn't help but turn to look at Xi Shangdan. As the representative of the Four Great Families, how would he react?
The result was disappointing. Xi Shangdan was expressionless at first, but then she smiled and walked to Su Wenlin's side. She smiled and said, "Young man, congratulations. You have to treat Yunyao well. I watched this girl grow up."
Su Wenlin was flattered. "I'll definitely take good care of Yunyao."
Old Master Su said apologetically, "Brother Xi, you won't blame me, right?"
Xi Shangdan smiled. "Why would I?
Now that the human race is facing both internal and external threats, we should put aside our prejudices and conflicts and face the beasts and other enemies together! "
"Well said. But are some people friends or foes?
How can we tell? "
A cold voice suddenly came from outside the hall. Then, a tall man with dazzling white skin and a long robe walked in. The inverted cross between his eyebrows was very eye-catching.
"Xuan Song!
Why is he here? "
Everyone immediately recognized who he was. The physical technique world wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. Most people had heard of the famous physical masters, not to mention the famous Judicial Department Director.
The Judicial Department was a group of fanatical worshippers of light energy. They were very repulsed by other physical technique cultivators. They were traditional and conservative, but they were very powerful and difficult to deal with.
However, the people in the hall were all high-level physical masters. They were also representatives of some big forces. Naturally, they weren't afraid of the Judicial Department.
Old Master Su frowned. "Brother Xuan, why did you come without saying anything? You should have told me in advance so that I could welcome you personally."
The coldness on Xuan Song's face disappeared. He smiled and said, "But there's no need to trouble you, Chief Engineer Su. I just happened to pass by today and heard your guests discussing the new Saint. I couldn't help but come in."
Old Master Su realized the meaning of his words. He asked doubtfully, "Does Brother Xuan know the true identity of this Thunder Saint?"
Xuan Song glanced at everyone in the hall. He walked to the table and poured himself a glass of wine. He took a sip slowly and said, "Some time ago, I led my subordinates to support the Tuoba family. When we were preparing to leave, we were ambushed by the evil sect's physical masters. The evil sect sent out four high-level physical masters and two great earth elementalists. There were also countless dark creatures …"
Everyone's expression changed. Xi Shangdan couldn't help but interrupt. "The evil sect is already so powerful?"
Xuan Song shook his head and sighed. "It's just the tip of the iceberg."
In the hall, the bearded physical master couldn't help but ask, "Then how did Brother Xuan escape from the evil sect's ambush?"
Xuan Song said, "Later on, a young man attacked. He killed one of the high-level physical masters and severely injured three others. The remaining three couldn't have escaped. Unfortunately, we were attacked by the fission weapon at the critical moment. We could only leave the explosion area."
The hall fell silent. Only a Saint could solve such a deadly situation.
"Brother Xuan, do you know the name of this Saint?"
Xuan Song smiled and took out a small booklet from his bosom and placed it on the table.
"This is the Void True Explanation?"
"Could it be that the Void Book was written by the Thunder Saint?"
Everyone in the hall started to discuss. The "Void True Explanation" had quietly become popular in recent years. Its breadth and profoundness were far beyond imagination.
The book contained the two most intuitive concepts of the path of martial arts. One was the exertion of kinetic energy, and the other was the accumulation of static energy. One movement and one silence contained the Heavenly Dao. Ordinary people would find it easy to understand, but experts would find it obscure and profound.
From high-level physical masters to ordinary people, everyone would be able to gain enlightenment from it.
The physical arts world generally believed that this was a heaven-level physical art. It was also the only heaven-level physical art that was widely popular and didn't require any aptitude.
"It's not convenient for me to reveal the identity of this Saint, but I can tell you some other things. That's right, the Void Book was written by him. Moreover, I can tell everyone that he was able to defeat high-level physical masters before he became a Saint. If not for the fission weapon attack, the remaining few evil sect physical masters would have died without a doubt."
Xi Shangdan frowned and said, "Was it a fission weapon launched by the evil sect?"
"No, it was a kind of super long-range missile. We humans haven't mastered this kind of super long-range positioning attack technology yet."
"Was it an extraterrestrial creature?"
Xuan Song was silent for a while and said, "I also thought it was an extraterrestrial creature …"
Halfway through his words, he stopped because the meaning had been conveyed. He finished the wine in his hand and got up to leave without looking back. When he was about to step out of the door, he suddenly stopped and turned back to ask the Ninth Princess, "Princess, I heard that His Majesty intended to betroth you to someone two years ago?"
The Ninth Princess was stunned and shook her head. "No."
"Oh, that's good. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if they pursued the matter."
His words were very confusing. Everyone in the hall was a little confused. This was a marriage between the royal family and the Three-Eyed Race. Even a Saint probably couldn't interfere. Even if the Great Emperor of Dongyuan had promised something before, who would have the guts to pursue the matter?
The Ninth Princess was also puzzled. A few years ago, her father did intend to marry her to someone called Luo Kai, but this guy didn't agree at all. The key point was that this person was already dead.
