C1885

Xiao Shu left the palace, and under the guidance of that person, they arrived at another palace. The moment they entered, they saw a figure standing in the middle of the palace with his hands behind his back, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

The person wore a large black robe and a mask. Only a pair of deep eyes could be seen on his face. His appearance gave people a mysterious feeling, as if it was filled with a secret.

"You wish to see me?" Xiao Shu asked that person with a trace of curiosity in his eyes, as if he was trying to guess the origin of that person.

That person turned around and his gaze landed on Xiao Shu. He asked: "Xiao's second young master, Xiao Shu?"

"I am." Xiao Shu nodded and asked, "May I know what business you have with me?"

"The Great Saint Ruins will appear in five days."

A calm voice came out from the other party's mouth. It was as if he was speaking in an extremely ordinary manner.

Once he said that, Xiao Shu's heart trembled. His eyes revealed a sharp glint as he stared at the figure of the black robe.

This person knows about the Great Saint Ruins?

"Who are you?" Xiao Shu asked in a deep voice. If what this person said was true, then his identity must not be simple.

"Young Master Xiao, there is no need to doubt my words. Since I have come here to meet you, I will not use lies to deceive you. It will not benefit me." The figure of the black robe said indifferently: "As for my identity, it is inconvenient to reveal it now. Young Master Xiao will naturally find out in the future."

"Did you release the news as well?" Xiao Shu asked again. Since this person knew when the Great Saint Ruins would open, then, the news of the Great Saint Ruins about to open might also be his doing.

"That's right, I was the one who let him out." The black robe nodded and did not hide anything.

After Xiao Shu received confirmation from the other party, he couldn't help but tremble inwardly. Just who was this person? True Lord Taishang's training hall didn't even have an ancient manual on him, how did he know?

"You didn't come here just to tell me about this, right?" Xiao Shu stared at the other person and said.

"Of course, although True Lord Taishang's training hall will be open, it won't be entered easily." The figure of the black robe slowly spoke: "The reason I came here to see Young Master Xiao today is because I hope to receive Xiao's help."

Xiao Shu's eyes flashed as he asked, "How can I help?"

"On the day that the training hall opens, I will appear and inform Young Master Xiao of what to do." The other party replied.

"It's really watertight!" Xiao Shu thought, looks like it's impossible to trick this person out of his words. To dare to talk to him alone, it's enough to prove that this person isn't simple and won't fall for his tricks easily.

"Other than the Xiao, which other powers did you find?" Xiao Shu asked again, other things are not to be revealed, which forces to participate should be able to tell, right?

"Before this, I had already met with the Ninth Prince of Eastern Kingdom, and he had agreed." The black robe looked at Xiao Shu and said indifferently: "Rest assured Young Master Xiao, as long as you do as I say, I can guarantee that you will be able to enter the True Lord Taishang's training hall."

"I hope you'll keep your word." Xiao Shu nodded. He was skeptical about this person's words, but other than trusting him, there seemed to be no other way.

After all, other than him, no one else knew anything about the Great Saint Ruins.

"I'll be taking my leave." The black robe man cupped his hands towards Xiao Shu and turned to leave. However, after walking a few steps, he suddenly turned his head to Xiao Shu and said: "Young Master Xiao, please keep this a secret and do not divulge it to anyone. Otherwise, the plan will not continue."

"Alright." Xiao Shu nodded, and then the black robe continued to walk forward, leaving the hall.

Xiao Shu stared at the man's back. With a wave of his hand, a subtle fluctuation appeared in the space. However, it calmed down in an instant as if nothing had happened.

After the black robe left the Xiao's palace, he directly flew away, and changed directions several times on the way. At one point, his figure suddenly stopped, and his eyes that were exposed outside the mask slightly squinted, as if revealing a sharp light.

His lips moved slightly as he spoke, "You have followed me for so long, why don't you go back?"

However, the space remained silent and there was no response.

"Tell your family's young master that I did not lie to him. If you still want to follow me, don't blame me for being merciless." The black robe man said coldly, his figure floating forward, and in the blink of an eye he disappeared.

After the black robe left, in that space just now, a middle-aged figure slowly appeared, a hint of shock on his face.

He was the guard of the Xiao, with a peak Middle Rank of Monarch Stage. Xiao Shu had sent him to follow the black robe in order to investigate his identity, but who knew, he was actually discovered.

Furthermore, from the words of the black robe, they should have already noticed his existence, but seeing that he had been following them, they decided to speak harshly.

… ….

However, in a short span of one day, many forces had received news from the black robe, that the Great Saint Ruins would open in five days.

These powers all had one thing in common, they were all powerful super powers.

Di Family also received this news.

Within a palace, Di Shifeng was in the middle of discussing business with the rest. Qin Xuan, Mo Lishang, and the rest were all present.

"I wonder where that black robe man came from and whether his information is accurate." Di Shifeng frowned slightly. When he first received this news, he was very shocked, but now, he felt that it was a bit strange.

"I think that not only did we get the news, many forces also know that the black robe man was not lying. However, it is possible that he was using us to achieve some sort of goal." Di Xuan said with a grave expression on his face. If there were no benefits, the other party would not tell them such a secret.

"Eastern Emperor, what do you think about this matter?" Di Shifeng suddenly turned to look at Qin Xuan. He already had a lot of trust in Qin Xuan, and would often ask for his opinion.

"I haven't decided yet." Qin Xuan shook his head. At this moment, he felt a little confused. The matter of the Huangfu Family hosting the Hero Banquet was not over, yet someone had actually come out to inform him of the secret of the Great Saint Ruins. This all seemed like a coincidence, however, there seemed to be no connection at all.

Qin Xuan suddenly felt like he was in a chess game. He was a chess piece and was controlled by someone.

"Let's take things one step at a time. With so many powers present, even he alone would not be able to create a huge storm." Everyone nodded in agreement, unless the black robe could deceive everyone. However, this was completely unrealistic.

There were many powers gathering in the Hong Realm and there were also a few powerful forces. However, there were not many genuine top-notch powers so not many people knew about the existence of the black robe.

They listened to the words of the black robe and kept this matter a secret. They did not reveal it to the public as they were afraid that the plan would change.

Although they still had some doubts towards the black robe, they would rather believe it than not. If it was real, and they did not listen to the words of the other party, then they would miss the chance to enter the Great Saint Ruins.

In these two days, there were still many people who came to the Hong Realm and heard about the Great Saint Ruins. However, most of the people that came were independent cultivator, and people from the various great power s had already arrived.

In the Hong World, in a certain direction, there was a young man and woman casually walking on the road. It was the Ye siblings.

"Brother, where are they now?" Ye Xuan turned her head to look at Ye Qi and suddenly asked.

"They're in the Eternal Realm and they're heading here now as well." Ye Zhan glanced at the young girl beside him and joked, "What? Do you regret it now?"

He had originally planned to leave by himself, but this girl insisted on following him. He had no other choice but to bring her along with him.

"No, I quite like this feeling!" A brilliant smile blossomed on Ye Xuan's face. She seemed exceptionally happy.

"Don't worry, we'll be able to meet them soon." Ye Zhan patted the young girl's shoulder with a comforting look on his face.

"Really?" Ye Xuan's eyes immediately lit up. Their two lives were too boring. Besides cultivating and travelling, she had had enough already!

"Yes." Ye Qi nodded with a smile. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This girl was really stubborn. She would rather die than admit it!

In another direction of the Hong Realm, a very unusual figure was walking on the road. On his shoulder was a black long rod, with both of his hands pressing on the top of the rod.

This person didn't look that old, but he had a strong build and a smile on his face. His eyes constantly scanned the surroundings, as if he was curious about everything here.

"That old man wouldn't lie to me, right? What good stuff could there be here?" That person muttered. Thinking of the old man he met a few days ago, he couldn't help but regret coming here.

What he saw was a desolate scene, not even a shadow of a human, let alone a treasure.

At this moment, he seriously suspected that the old man was intentionally tricking him to come here!0

Just as he was feeling extremely depressed, the sound of something tearing through the air rang out. Suddenly, a row of silhouettes flew past him, as a beam of light shot out from his eyes.

Seeing that there was someone blocking their way, a trace of vigilance appeared in the eyes of those people. They all stared at the weird-looking figure in front of them, and one of them opened his mouth to ask, "Who are you?"

"Let me ask you, is this the Hong realm?" The strange man ignored the other's question and directly asked.

That person hesitated for a moment before replying, "That's right, this is the Hong Realm."

"Then why can't I see anyone? Where did everyone go?" The strange man asked again.

Hearing this, the other party revealed a strange expression, thinking that this person must have also come for the Great Saint Ruins, he actually didn't know where he went?

"The people of the various powers are all in the Centeral Area, so of course we can't see them here. If you don't even know this, why did you come to the Hong Realm?" He smiled and looked at the strange man with a hint of playfulness in his eyes.

The others also had smiles on their faces. The wariness in their hearts immediately vanished. This person was most likely just a fool. Once he heard some news, he would rush to the Hong World. However, he didn't even know where he was, so what was the use of him coming here?
