Chapter 1018: Chapter 1017: Sea Saint Institute Chapter 1018: Chapter 1017: Sea Saint Institute After visiting Dugu Nian, Fang Lin didn't delay and contacted Ye Mengxian using the Message Transmitting Jade Slip.
Ye Mengxian, who was on the VIP stand, received Fang Lin's message and left the stand to meet with Fang Lin at the Pill Alliance branch.
“What brings you to me in such a hurry?” Ye Mengxian asked.
Fang Lin told Ye Mengxian about the people from overseas he had seen when he activated his Heavenly Eye.
Hearing this, Ye Mengxian's expression changed, her beautiful brows furrowed, and her face took on a grave hue.
“Are you sure you saw people from the Seven Seas?” Ye Mengxian asked.
Fang Lin nodded, “I won't mistake it, a party of three, an old man with two youths, approaching on a single leaf scroll.”
Ye Mengxian took a deep breath, “Then there's no mistake, according to your description, it must be people from the Seven Seas' Confucian school coming.”
“The Confucian school?” Fang Lin furrowed his brow slightly.
The Seven Seas has three sect, each representing different powers.
Among them, the Confucian school is one of these three sect, with strong power and many eminent warriors.
In the last great war between the Nine Countries and the Seven Seas, the experts of the Confucian school gave many formidable warriors from the Nine Countries quite a hard time, a memory that lingers to this day.
“Based on your estimate, how long before these Confucian school people will arrive in Sea Moon City?” Ye Mengxian asked.
Fang Lin thought for a moment, “About six hours, possibly even sooner.”
Ye Mengxian nodded and returned to the VIP stand.
“Ladies and gentlemen, uninvited guests will be arriving soon.” Ye Mengxian spoke out, sharing the intel she had with the Pingbei King and others.
“What? People from the Seven Seas' Confucian school are coming?” Upon hearing this, the Pingbei King and others all showed shocked expressions.
Ye Mengxian nodded.
“How did you come to know of this news?” the Pingbei King asked.
Ye Mengxian didn't hide anything and told them about the vision Fang Lin had when he activated his Spirit Eye.
“I see.” Everybody's expression turned serious, and the Lord of Sea Moon City instantly rose into the sky, focusing his gaze towards the sea.
A moment later, the Lord of Sea Moon City's expression underwent a change, and he landed back on the stand, nodding slightly to the group.
“Indeed, there are people from the Seven Seas approaching Sea Moon City,” said the Lord of Sea Moon City.
With this, the matter was confirmed beyond a doubt.
“What do the people from the Seven Seas want?” Meng Haiwen frowned as he spoke.
“Heh, what else can they do? They're either declaring war or spying. But to come with just two or three people, they are rather underestimating our Nine Countries,” Tuoba Lie said coldly.
The Pingbei King shook his head, “Maybe it's not that simple. Although the conflict with the Seven Seas is becoming more urgent, it hasn't reached the point of direct combat yet, and their probing shouldn't have come so soon.”
Ye Mengxian said, “Perhaps they've come to assess the talents here in Sea Moon City.”
“That is quite possible.” The others agreed with Ye Mengxian's suggestion.
“Let's suspend the Talent War for now,” said the Pingbei King.
The Lord of Sea Moon City nodded and loudly announced the suspension of the Talent War, to be resumed at a later date.
Upon hearing this news, many in the city were puzzled. Why suspend the Talent War all of a sudden?
Could there be some mysterious event?
Though there were various speculations, no one raised any objections, after all, it was the decision of several powerful figures.
“The people from the Seven Seas are on their way, everyone, please remain calm,” the Lord of Sea Moon City then threw out another bombshell of news.
This time, the entire Sea Moon City was truly in an uproar.
The people of the Seven Seas had always been great enemies to the Nine Countries, with both sides having a longstanding history of enmity and mutual hostility.
Although many were aware that war with the lands of the Seven Seas was imminent, no one had expected that today, people from the Seven Seas would arrive.
“What are the people of the Seven Seas doing in Sea Moon City? Could it be a provocation?”
“No wonder the Talent Battles were temporarily suspended, it must be to prepare for an attack by the people of the Seven Seas.”
“These damned overseas barbarians, they really should be entirely wiped out in one fell swoop.”
“Bring it on, let them see how formidable we are.”
“However many they bring, we of the Nine Countries will wipe them out, and see if they still dare to boast.”
Most of the city's martial artists were bursting with excitement, their blood boiling, eager to join the great war against the Seven Seas immediately.
However, there were also some steadier and calmer individuals who were secretly speculating about the purpose of this visit from the Seven Seas people.
After all, this visit by the people of the Seven Seas was too abrupt, and its impact on the current situation between the Nine Countries and the Seven Seas was unknown.
As time passed bit by bit, over the vast, boundless sea, a page from a book approached, breaking the waves with flickering lights.
“They've finally arrived.” Lord Pingbei and a few others, standing on the ramparts facing the sea, all wore solemn expressions.
The populace within the city likewise flew up into the sky, all eager to catch a glimpse of the mysterious guests from the Seven Seas.
Fang Lin was no different, standing behind Ye Mengxian with a calm gaze, observing the visitors from overseas.
“People of the Rumen scholars from the Seven Seas, coming to our Qing Nation's Sea Moon City, may I ask what brings you here?” the Lord of Sea Moon City stepped forward and inquired.
As the page came closer, the people within the city could finally make out the three individuals on the book.
There was no need to mention the elder and the youth, but the most eye-catching was the young lady.
The young lady sat at the edge of the page, her legs dangling, eyes like sparkling gems curiously observing the people of Sea Moon City.
She was exceedingly beautiful, and although young, was already a rare and unforgettable beauty from the moment one laid eyes upon her.
The young lady pursed her lips, seemingly chewing on something, her demeanor somewhat playful and cute.
The Rumen elder appeared somewhat shocked, his gaze sweeping over Pingbei King and Tuoba Lie, his eyes betraying a hint of wariness.
His gaze was piercing, for he could see that these two elders had unfathomable strength, likely no less than his own, so the idea of demonstrating his dominance upon arrival was immediately dismissed from his mind.
“I am Wang Qingsong, an elder from the Rumen Sea Saint Institute, here to visit Sea Moon City with my juniors,” the elder said, revealing his identity.
Upon hearing his words, the expressions of Lord Pingbei and the others changed notably.
Rumen was merely a general term, actually encompassing many powers united under the name of Rumen.
Among them, the Sea Saint Institute was a very powerful force within Rumen, famous throughout the Nine Countries.
By immediately disclosing his identity, the elder was clearly looking to intimidate the people inside Sea Moon City.
“Hmph, so it's someone from the Sea Saint Institute. Well, since you've come here, don't even think about going back,” Pingbei King suddenly said, stepping out from atop the city wall.
BOOM!!!
Suddenly, the earth shook violently, and on the sea's surface massive waves arose, a giant wave surging as if it meant to engulf the three on the page.
This was the might of Pingbei King–his mere step was enough to be so terrifying.
Wang Qingsong's face was full of shock, with no intention to demonstrate his power, yet the other party had made such a formidable move first.
