Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates-Chapter 1358 - 1341: Two Gifts of Congratulations

Accompanied by the killing of martial artists guarding the entrance of Wuji Hall, martial artists from the Wuji Sect turned pale, ready to fight, as powerful auras surged.

However, when those four youths walked in, the entire Wuji Hall instantly fell into a deathly silence, and the martial artists who came to offer congratulations trembled with fear.

"Hold off for now!"

Xiao Ye growled, his gaze fixed on one of the four youths stepping into the palace.

This youth had a robust physique; exposed skin bore demonic totems, his black hair was like ink, exuding indescribable dominance, and his eyes were filled with coldness and ruthlessness towards all of heaven and earth, like a naturally born overlord.

Noticing Xiao Ye’s gaze, the youth’s lips slightly curved, revealing a sinister and chilling smile.

Jun Shitian!

This youth was none other than Jun Shitian, the most devilish disciple of Taiyi Palace’s Main Hall, possessing potential comparable to the Four Great Emperor’s Sons, renowned in Central State.

Yet, selfish and cruel, he fell into the demon path in pursuit of breakthroughs in martial arts, becoming a Young Palace Master of the Demon Palace, one of the three sub-palaces of the Ultimate Palace.

Before Xiao Ye came to Sealing Emperor City again, rumors had informed him that Jun Shitian was alive and had appeared in the battle when the Ultimate Palace attacked the Ice and Snow Palace.

Of course, what shocked Xiao Ye went far beyond this.

Because now, Jun Shitian and two other youths followed every step, like servants, behind the fair-skinned youth clad in green clothes.

Jun Shitian’s character was immensely proud. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Yet he willingly follows this green-clothed youth; this was simply too shocking.

What identity does this green-clothed youth hold?

Xiao Ye’s gaze turned to that youth. Despite being right in front, emitting no oppressive and powerful aura, the youth’s facial features were blurry and indistinct.

It seemed this green-clothed youth was shrouded in some kind of mystery, obscuring the light.

Bing Ya nervously gripped Xiao Ye’s hand.

Today was her and Xiao Ye’s wedding day; could it be that they were here to cause trouble?

"It’s... it’s you!"

"You’re the mysterious youth who suddenly appeared when the Tao Palace army attacked my Ice and Snow Palace!"

"Who exactly are you, and what is your relationship with the Ultimate Palace?" At this moment, Ice and Snow Palace’s Great Elder, Situ Wushang, suddenly exclaimed, pointing at the green-clothed youth with resentment and asking.

In the battle at the Ice and Snow Palace, they suffered heavy casualties, deeply resenting the Ultimate Palace.

"It’s actually him!"

"Indeed, I was at the scene participating in the battle and saw these four youths appear!"

"Even Luo Xiao, the Palace Master of Tao Palace, showed great respect for this green-clothed youth!"

"He claims to be sealed for thousands of years, coming to this life, where only Xiao Ye can be his rival, who unexpectedly has arrived."

...

With Situ Wushang’s words, the Wuji Hall instantly erupted in chaos; many recognized this green-clothed youth, their eyes showing caution.

Though they could not clearly see the youth’s true appearance, his extraordinary aura made a lasting impression.

To be respected by someone like Luo Xiao, a half-step Emperor, is indeed frightening; perhaps backed by martial artists from the Ultimate Palace, even half-step emperors; martial artists inside Wuji Hall dared not act recklessly.

"That mysterious youth sealed for thousands of years?" Xiao Ye’s mind roared, filled with disbelief.

Who exactly could be sealed for millennia and come to this life?

This green-clothed youth was too enigmatic!

"Xiao Ye, you’re the leading young generation in Central State now, the leader of Wuji Sect, a hegemon, is this how you host guests?" This green-clothed youth looked at Xiao Ye, smiling lightly and asked.

"If you’re not here to disrupt, you’re naturally welcome."

"But what do you mean by the two gifts you mentioned before?" Xiao Ye said grimly.

This green-clothed youth’s origins were unclear, likely related to the Ultimate Palace, making Xiao Ye hesitate to relax his guard before understanding his intentions.

"Heh heh!"

Watched by the heroes, the green-clothed youth found a seat and sat down with the three youths, glanced at Xiao Ye, and said, "Xiao Ye, didn’t you notice that when you faced the combined attack of various powerful figures at the Ice and Snow Palace, the Tao Palace army of the Ultimate Palace suddenly arrived, helping you to escape?"

"That was the first gift!"

The green-clothed youth said, pouring himself a cup of wine and drinking it all in one go.

What?

These words exploded like thunder in everyone’s ears, leaving them dumbfounded.

Was the Tao Palace army’s arrival under the command of this youth, merely to help Xiao Ye escape?

"And the second gift?" Xiao Ye’s eyes flashed with light, asked deeply.

He had felt suspicious about the sudden arrival of the Tao Palace army and was not overly surprised now.

"The second gift... your father should know it well." The green-clothed youth answered indifferently.

"My father?"

Xiao Ye was stunned.

During the Wuji Sect Establishment Ceremony, his only family present was his father sitting in the corner, proudly watching the ceremony take place, who now walked over.

"Ye’er, that day when the Iron Blood Emperor Domain tried to capture your mother and me, it was this youth who appeared and killed all the powerful figures of the Iron Blood Emperor Domain." Xiao Yang said in a low voice.

"It was you; then I must thank you."

Xiao Ye took a deep breath, calming the storm of emotions within.

Apparently, this green-clothed youth had been observing him for a while, but why help him multiple times?

"Thank you need not be mentioned, since today is your wedding day, I can’t come empty-handed."

"Proceed with your ceremony; ignore me." The green-clothed youth calmly sat, speaking indifferently.

"As long as you’re not here to cause trouble, you will be treated as honored guests by this sect." Xiao Ye nodded, instructed the Wuji Sect martial artists to arrange seats and serve wine and delicacies to Jun Shitian and his companions.

Even Jun Shitian, as arrogant as he was, behaved properly beside this green-clothed youth, without any undue actions.

"Ye Zi, this person might be from the Ultimate Palace, possibly here to disrupt, you’re going to let him stay here?" Prince Donghuang whispered, approaching.

Xiao Ye glanced at the green-clothed youth, remained silent for a moment, then replied, "Today all guests are considered guests, he doesn’t seem to be here to cause trouble."

"Alright." Prince Donghuang managed a bitter smile, nodding and retreating.

Although the banquet continued, the atmosphere in Wuji Hall had changed, with the green-clothed youth like a thorn in everyone’s throat.

Yet, the green-clothed youth seemed entirely unconcerned by the eyes upon him.

Especially the Holy Palace Master and Elders of Taiyi Palace, their gaze towards Jun Shitian filled with icy intent.

If not for considering today, the Wuji Sect’s auspicious day, and avoiding bloodshed, they surely would want to clean house; allowing Jun Shitian to live was a disgrace.

"Though today is Ye Zi’s joyful occasion, I can’t quite hold back."

"In the Ice and Snow Palace, you made disparaging comments about us Four Great Emperor’s Sons; I’d like to see the confidence behind your words today." Suddenly, an icy voice arose; Absolute Emperor’s son, Tang Yi, slammed the table, stood tall, and strode toward the green-clothed youth.
