Chapter 2324: Chapter 2320: Demon Sacrifice Day Begins

Dongfang Family, rear hall.

In a certain courtyard.

Dongfang Yingyun pointed and said, "This is the side hall, consisting of 15 sub-courtyards. Around the courtyard are the residences of various elders of the Dongfang Family."

"Are Master Xiao Yi and young friend Yiming satisfied?"

"If not, I can arrange for another place."

"It’s fine as is, they’re all the same." Xiao Yi smiled.

"I don’t care," Xia Yiming said coldly, "As long as the Palace Master is satisfied."

Dongfang Yingyun nodded, cupped his hands, and said, "Then the two of you shall stay here. If there’s anything you need, feel free to call on me anytime."

With that said, Dongfang Yingyun slowly withdrew.

Xiao Yi smiled.

Places like these that are located at the rear of the family estate and are surrounded by elders’ residences are absolutely the most important reception areas within a family.

To stay here, the environment is not inferior to the Family Head’s quarters by any measure, and having elders outside ensures safety.

Simply put, such an area of buildings would definitely be the rooms that a family reserves for entertaining important guests.

"If I’m not mistaken, in the past when Senior Xia Yifeng visited the Dongfang Family, he also stayed in this side hall," Xiao Yi chuckled lightly.

Xia Yiming glanced around the surroundings and nodded, "Yes."

Casually entering one of the sub-courtyards, Xiao Yi found a room, sat cross-legged, and began meditating.

Next, it’s just waiting.

Other trivial matters, such as registering the Heavenly Talent identity for the Demon Sacrifice Day, will be handled by Dongfang Yingyun.

Thus, what Xiao Yi needs to do is idly wait for the Demon Sacrifice Day to arrive.

"It’s a pity, as the Demon Sacrifice Day starts tomorrow." Xiao Yi slightly opened his eyes, frowned, and murmured to himself.

Nearby, Xia Yiming, who stood leaning in a corner of the room, asked doubtfully, "Palace Master, do you have something to do?"

"Hmm." Xiao Yi nodded, "If time were more plentiful, I would like to investigate the matter of the Blue Leaf Poison."

With a confused look, Xia Yiming frowned and said, "Is the Palace Master concerned about this matter?"

"Yiming thought that the Palace Master did not care."

"How could I not care?" Xiao Yi shook his head.

"Blue Leaf Poison is exceptionally terrifying; since its appearance, even the intelligence personnel of the Eight Palaces can’t find any clue."

"I saw it today and knew its troubles."

"With the spreading nature of this Blue Leaf Poison, if left unchecked, it would cause countless martial artists to die within a short period of time."

Xiao Yi squinted, "Terrifying spread, rapid poisonous attack in a very short time, and silent and uncanny coverage of a vast area."

"If such a poison breaks out at a critical moment, the consequences are unpredictable."

Xiao Yi frowned.

His visit to the Demon Domain was naturally not as simple as just training.

After this Demon Sacrifice Day is over, he will venture into the Demon Domain for exploration, perhaps there will be other discoveries, but that’s not certain.

...

Time slowly passes.

A night goes by without conversation.

The next morning, knock knock...

Xia Yiming opened the door, and it was a maid from the Dongfang Family delivering breakfast.

Xiao Yi woke from his meditation, glanced at the lavish feast spread over the table but didn’t eat a single bit.

"Palace Master not eating?" Xia Yiming asked.

Xiao Yi shook his head, "Not hungry, you eat."

Xia Yiming didn’t move, just stood coldly.

"Never mind, let’s head straight to the Martial Arts Hall," Xiao Yi said, stepping out of the room.

"Yes." Xia Yiming nodded, following closely.

...

Exiting the side hall and the courtyard area, crossing the massive Martial Arts Arena of the Dongfang Family, they arrived at the Martial Arts Hall.

Much like yesterday, the Martial Arts Hall was teeming with Heavenly Talents and Monsters.

The entire Martial Arts Hall is actually quite large.

At the front at this moment, there was an elder from the Dongfang Family with a booklet in hand, making records.

The elder murmured to himself, "Demon Sacrifice Day will begin in an hour."

"The Heavenly Talents that should come have mostly arrived."

"Is everything ready outside the Martial Arts Arena?" The elder glanced at a nearby Dongfang Family martial artist and asked.

"Reporting to the elder, everything is ready, just waiting for the Demon Sacrifice Day to start."

"Hmm." The elder nodded.

Xiao Yi casually found a seat, sat down quietly, and waited.

Glancing around, among the Heavenly Talents and Monsters, most were unfamiliar faces.

These should be the younger generation from the Hidden Forces.

Among them, there were also unmistakable auras of the Saint Sovereign Realm.

Obviously, in the year and a half he wandered, quite a few Heavenly Talents and Monsters have emerged.

Of course, on the other hand, this generation of young people is indeed exceptional.

With ample talent and the profound heritage of their own Hidden Forces behind them, their growth rate is fast enough.

An hour later.

An elder from the Dongfang Family nodded and said loudly, "In an hour, the Demon Sacrifice Day will officially begin."

"The Martial Arts Hall is cramped, you might as well wait around the Martial Arts Arena, it’ll be more spacious."

With that, the elder took the lead and walked out.

A group of people followed out as well.

Outside the Martial Arts Hall is the Dongfang Family’s Martial Arts Arena.

The Heavenly Talents and Monsters waiting outside the Martial Arts Hall moved to the surrounding seats; meanwhile, other Heavenly Talents and Monsters within the Dongfang Family also took their seats one by one.

Among those who were familiar with each other, they sat together in twos or threes, each engaging in conversation.

In the vast spectator seating area, although it wasn’t quite full to capacity in an instant, it was indeed a bustling crowd.

Xiao Yi, as always, casually found a seat and sat down.

Xiao Yi discontentedly glanced at Xia Yiming nearby, "Yiming, will you stop standing there?"

"Huh?" Xia Yiming hesitated slightly.

Xiao Yi said helplessly, "You could just sit in the seat next to me, right?"

Xia Yiming nodded, "Yes, Palace Master."

The time of an hour passed in waits and occasional chats among the Heavenly Talents and Monsters.

Occasionally, there would be a few Heavenly Talents and Monsters arriving just in time to join the Dongfang Family’s seats, of course, not that many.

Some were of renowned fame, and when they appeared, would often cause the surrounding conversations to pause as people cast their gazes.

Of course, these numbers were even fewer.

"Hmm?" At this time, a light hum sounded, and all eyes turned to the newcomer just outside the spectator seats, a martial artist.

The newcomer, with thundering electric energy, had a proud countenance, carrying an expression of undisguised arrogance in his eyes, no, simply put, it was a look that seemed displeased with everyone.

"Ran Qi? The Young Master of Heavenly Spear Mansion?"

"Among the Central Region Heavenly Pride, one of the few who can compare with the Hidden Genius."

"Heard this person is a madman..."

For many Hidden Genius, this was their first time seeing Ran Qi.

Ran Qi stepped into the spectator seats, glanced around, and finally, his gaze fixed on Xiao Yi, a grin crossing his lips.

As expected, Ran Qi quickly walked over, then unceremoniously sat down next to Xiao Yi.

"It’s only been a couple of months since we last met, no need for formalities anymore," Ran Qi smiled.

Xiao Yi looked at Ran Qi with surprise, "First Layer Peak of Saint Sovereign Realm?"

The last time he saw Ran Qi, he was still in the Supreme Realm.

In the couple of months since they last met, he broke through to the Saint Sovereign Realm? And it’s at First Layer Peak.

Ran Qi smiled complacently, "What? Surprised? Curious? I can’t believe you think you’re the only Supreme Monster?"

"I, Ran Qi, wouldn’t consider myself any less than you, but most of the time, I was always a bit less, which made you appear stronger than me."

Xiao Yi smiled, "This guy, just tell me, how did you do it?"

"Secret." Ran Qi smiled mysteriously, "After this battle, I’ll tell you."

"Of course, I can’t wait to fight you."

Ran Qi’s eyes were full of battle intent.
