Not only were Louis III and Nicholas filled with unease, but also the people from Huaxia's major ancient martial arts clans like Shu Mountain and Kunlun were completely plunged into anxiety.

They seemed to have guessed who this person might be, but none of them dared to be certain if it was really him!

In the hotel on the island, Yuan Shu and Feng Ya sat on the sofa, looking very agitated.

Meanwhile, Lin Zhetian wore an extremely dark expression.

Originally, he thought the darkness could kill Ye Xunhuan, and even when making a move, he had thought of killing Ye Xunhuan. But who knew in the end this suddenly appearing mysterious man ruined it, letting Ye Xunhuan escape disaster.

"Yuan Shu, he's still alive?" Feng Ya said, full of panic.

"Most likely!" Yuan Shu also wore a heavy and uneasy expression: "If he's alive, after all these years of lying low and gathering strength, no one might be able to subdue him anymore..."

"How is this possible, wasn't he already..."

"Feng Ya, we were nothing but insignificant people back then; how could we have known the affairs of great figures?" Yuan Shu softly interrupted Feng Ya's words: "Besides, history has always been rewritten by victors; the real truth is only held by a few!"

"Then what about him and Ye Xunhuan..."

"It's not about him and Ye Xunhuan now, but him and Qiu Ruoxi!" Yuan Shu, full of unease, said: "You and I both know who Qiu Ruoxi's grandfather is!"

"That old thing hasn't shown up in half his life; if that person really is him, and if it was that one from the Xiahou family who invited him out, that would be the most terrifying."

Upon hearing Yuan Shu and Feng Ya's words, Lin Zhetian couldn't help but ask: "Uncle, does Qiu Ruoxi have another identity..."

"Zhetian, we know you want revenge, but hear my advice, some revenge is meant to restore honor, some revenge is meant to be endured!" Feng Ya said helplessly: "And as for Qiu Ruoxi, don't even think about plotting against her!"

"She is not as simple as you think. If you anger her grandfather, even your Sect Leader Senior Brother can't protect you!"

Upon hearing Feng Ya's words, Lin Zhetian's heart gave a violent shudder.

All along, Lin Zhetian thought Qiu Ruoxi was just a small figure but now, he realized he was the small figure, as Qiu Ruoxi is the daughter of destiny, untouchable, otherwise death!

"Uncle, Qiu Ruoxi's grandfather is..."

"There are some things you are not supposed to know." Feng Ya spoke again: "This is for your own good."

Even with Feng Ya saying so, no matter how curious Lin Zhetian was internally, wanting to know more, he knew better than to ask further.

"Zhetian, don't think we're deceiving you." Yuan Shu suddenly spoke: "Qiu Ruoxi's background is definitely beyond your imagination!"

"Otherwise, do you really think Ye Xunhuan killed so many of our Shu Mountain people, and yet the Sect Leader Senior Brother still wants me to win over Ye Xunhuan?"

"Do you really think it's just for a Taiji Seal?"

The reason Yuan Shu spared no effort in roping in Ye Xunhuan indeed had something to do with the Taiji Seal, but more so it was because of Qiu Ruoxi's grandfather.

That old man wasn't someone just anyone could provoke.

Even though he doesn't float in the martial world, his name still resounds in it, and Qiu Ruoxi is his only granddaughter, the future heir of the Xiahou family.

Bringing Ye Xunhuan in, if they obtain the Taiji Seal, they might be able to contend with the Xiahou family. If they don't, then winning over Ye Xunhuan is like winning favor with Qiu Ruoxi, indirectly currying favor with the Xiahou family.

Two plans, but both shattered, especially with the appearance of that azure-clad man, it plunged them into unprecedented unease.

Lin Zhetian kept silent, but his iron fists slowly clenched together. Was this revenge to be left unsettled just like that?

He was unwilling!

Yuan Shu's usually calm eyes seemingly had penetrating power, as if they could see through Lin Zhetian's inner thoughts, making him sigh involuntarily.

He had already explained the benefits and harms to Lin Zhetian; if Lin Zhetian still insisted on seeking death, then they couldn't stop him.

...

In another Kunlun room in the hotel, Yuxuzi, already graying, and Tongxuan, over fifty years old, felt an unprecedented anxiety just like Yuan Shu and Feng Ya.

"Senior brother, could it really be that person?" Tongxuan's voice was full of dread and worry.

"I don't know!" Yuxuzi gently shook his head: "If he is still alive, having hibernated for so many years, he probably has big plans!"

"If it's not him, then who could be so terrifying?"

"The Guardian?"

"Do you think a master from the Guardians would come here?"

Tongxuan fell silent.

"Could it be that old man from the Xiahou family..."

"It's hard to say!" Yuxuzi remained in uncertainty: "He indeed has the ability, but he hasn't shown up in many years, he probably wouldn't come here, would he?"

"Qiu Ruoxi is his granddaughter." Tongxuan stated heavily: "And this is the Black List Tournament; who dares say he wouldn't come to protect his granddaughter?"

"She's the future helm of the Xiahou family!"

Yuxuzi didn't respond, the entire person plunged into deep thought.

They had long guessed Qiu Ruoxi's identity, and it was while investigating the conflict between Ye Xunhuan and Shu Mountain.

Once they learned Qiu Ruoxi was the future helm of the Xiahou family, Kunlun, originally planning to join the commotion and snatch the Taiji Seal, just sat back to watch.

Watching to see how capable Shu Mountain was, daring to snatch food from a tiger's mouth, daring to provoke that old man.

Who would think Shu Mountain chickened out in the end, and thus they had no show to watch.

However, even so, they did not make a move.

The Taiji Seal is a good thing, but one also needs to have the life to take it away.

You might end up taking the Taiji Seal, only to be killed before you even have a chance to decipher it.

So they didn't make a move, but with this matter now arising, it made Yuxuzi start feeling perturbed.

One must know the unknown is the most dangerous.

If it's the Xiahou family's patriarch, it's manageable; if not, perhaps the future Huaxia will plunge into a bloody war.

That person would never let this lie!

It's not just Shu Mountain and Kunlun; others are the same, and so are the Western werewolves.

They never expected the Earl to die in the Black List Tournament, and to be things over in seconds at that.

This time, it's truly a case of trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice!

While everyone was depressed, Ye Xunhuan was also feeling down; just who is this azure-clad man?

Where did he come from, why didn't I have the slightest impression of him!

"Olivia, you've lived for so long, is there such an impressive person in Huaxia?"

"Yes!" Olivia said emphatically!

"Who?"

"But they say he's already dead!"
