Against The Gods
Chapter 64 – The Battle That Shocks The City

As Yun Che and Xia Yuanba walked into the main hall, and happened to meet Murong Ye. He glanced at them and said in an unfriendly manner, “What are you two doing here? Do you know what kind of banquet this is? Go at once! "

“Older Sikong who allowed us to come. '' Xia Yuanba said as he held back his anger.

“Older Sikong? Allow the two of you? "Murong Ye said with a disdainful laugh:" He let the two of you come to humiliate us? This was no ordinary banquet; in a moment, the students from the various schools would fight. You two pieces of trash aren't even considered good; what can you two do, now that you've come here? Hmph, okay. Since the Elder has allowed the two of you to come, go inside. I'll be honest; if you cause our Deep New Moon Palace to lose face, don't blame this Senior for being too harsh with your punishment. ”

He followed behind Lan Xueruo all afternoon. Although Lan Xueruo always smiled and spoke in a soft voice, she never looked at her directly though. This makes it keep the entire stomach full of discomfort. When he met Yun Che and Xia Yuanba, it just so happened that he found a way out for his anger.

Even if Xia Yuanba had a better temper, being suddenly verbally abused for no apparent reason would still arouse his anger. Yun Che pulled his arm, and spoke in an indifferent tone: “Let's go in. ”

When they entered the Main Palace, they saw Sikong Han waving at them, and made them sit on a chair that had been arranged beforehand. Both of their seats are located at the very back, and are very invisible …. However, even though the place they were sitting was not very visible, with Xia Yuanba's figure placed there, it was impossible not to attract attention.

"Yun Che, Yuanba, if any duel happens later, I want you two to pay attention. It would be best if the two of you managed to learn something from the fight. It has only been a while since the two of you joined the Profound Department, so there is no way anyone will challenge the two of you. Stay behind and watch safely. “Sikong Han warned.

“Understood, Elder Sikong. '' Xia Yuanba nodded, then sat down obediently.

Yun Che also slowly nodded, he looked around and noticed that around thirty disciples from the Profound Department were present. Not surprisingly, each of the thirty should be an elite disciple of the New Profound Moon Palace. Of the three thousand Profound Department disciples, only thirty had come; each, without a doubt, was the best of the best. Soon after, Yun Che saw Lan Xuerou. He astonishedly sat in the middle of the first row of disciples; his seat did not surprise Yun Che in the slightest. An eighteen-year-old child at the eighth level of Nascent Profound, and even a girl; who was considered a top talent even in an upper middle-tier sect.

As for Yun Che, he had also attracted the attention of several Profound Department disciples. All who were able to participate in this meeting, were the elites of their sects, and the competition between them would be fierce. Those who were familiar with this kind of meeting were very surprised by Xia Yuanba's participation. Since Xia Yuanba's strength was only at the sixth level of the Basic Profound Realm, he was considered one of the weaker members within the Profound Department and as such, did not have the qualifications to be here. And Yun Che who came with her, was a completely foreign face.

"Hmm? Are you a new student here? Don't think I've seen you before? ”A flaming red-clothed girl sitting in front of Yun Che turned around, and asked as her eyes flickered in curiosity.

“Salam Sis Senior. My name is Yun Che. I just joined the Great Palace today. '' Yun Che slightly nodded, as his face revealed an extremely alluring and deadly smile.

For a split second, the girl felt like she was being electrocuted by an electric current. His cheeks were slightly flushed, and he lightly shouted: “Wow! To have broken through to the Nascent Profound Realm at such a young age, it was no wonder you had been allowed to attend this banquet on the first day you were accepted. ”

"He's my brother-in-law, of course he'll be amazing!" Xia Yuanba proudly announced. She seemed happier when others praised Yun Che than herself.

"Ah? A brother-in-law? You're married? ”Ask the girl with pink lips when her eyes showed obvious disappointment.

With great difficulty, Yun Che managed to refrain from strangling Xia Yuanba, and replied with a calm expression: "That's right. Senior Brother is so beautiful, he must be married as well, right? ”

“Hmph, I definitely won't get married this early. Ah . That's right, my name is Ye Hongling, First Class Inner Department, seventeen years old. If you have any problems in the future, just come find me! ”The girl said in a respectful tone.

“…. Pleasure is mine, Senior Brother. ”

Knowing that he made a mistake, Xia Yuanba lowered his head, shrunk, and did not dare to talk to Yun Che for a long time.

At this time, the main actor of the event, the newly appointed Palace Head of the New Moon Palace, Qin Wuyou, finally arrived. Qin Wuyou seemed to be around sixty; his face showed an expression of gentle and uninterrupted calmness, and deep wisdom could be seen in his clear eyes. He exuded an incredible aura. Qin Wuyou was originally one of the elders of the Imperial Capital's Profound Palace; he was specifically assigned to the New Moon Profound Palace as the Palace Head, and his true strength was deep and unfathomable.

Qin Wuyou had already arrived at the New Moon Profound Palace a month ago, and today was only the official day of the newly appointed banquet. In this short month, he had already bowed above every elder and disciple, and received their deepest respect. After taking the seat of the Palace Head, all the representatives from the big sects followed suit, as if they had planned ahead of time.

"Hahahaha, Tie Zhancang of the Iron Spear Clan, brought his son, Hengjun, to congratulate respectfully to Palace Head Qin on his appointment. ”

Following the clear and clear sound of laughter, one could see a middle-aged man and seven disciples stepping in.

"It was the current Iron Spear Clan Master Clan. "Xia Yuanba whispered into Yun Che's ear::" The one following right behind him was his youngest son, Tie Hengjun. Although he was young, he was also extremely talented. According to rumors, he was the top candidate who would become the future Clan Master of the Iron Spear Clan. ”

Qin Wuyou personally rose from his seat and received a reward: "The Iron Spear Clan Master is really too polite. You personally came to give this old man face, so there should be no need to bring any gifts. Your esteemed son is extraordinarily talented, and the way he behaves on his own is not what he usually is. In the future, he will definitely become a dragon among men, and perhaps, he might even far surpass you, his father. Haha… . Come on, please sit down. ”

"Yuanba, this situation seems to be very harmonious, I cannot feel any fierce competition no matter what. '' Yun Che said as he rubbed his chin.

"Err .. This, the reputation of the Iron Spear Clan has always been good; although their overall strength and influence surpasses that of our Profound Palace, their relationship with us can be considered not bad. However, other clans … "

Before finishing his sentence, the members of the Cloudy Sun Sect had arrived.

"Chief Elder of the Sun Cloudy Sect Yan Zizai, congratulated Palace Chief Qin on his appointment. ”

The Profound Heart Sect, the Seven Deadly Swords Pavilion, and the Stormy Profound Palace, all came one after another, after the Cloudy Sun Sect. Each clan brought seven or eight disciples, and Qin Wuyou personally greeted them. Only until the banquet would officially begin, did the Burning Heaven Clan slowly arrive.

"Sixth Elder of the Heaven Burning Heaven Clan, Fen Hanyan, congratulated Palace Chief Qin on his appointment. ”

Burning the Clan of Heaven …. Or rather, the outer sect of the Burning Heaven Clan located in New Moon City. The one leading was the old man who was entirely dressed in red; his robe was fully embroidered in a pattern of deep red flames. The moment he stepped into the Main Palace, everyone could clearly feel a burst of heat charging at their faces.

After the outer sect of the Burning Heaven Clan, came the Xiao Sect Branch, and they were the last to arrive. The one in front who was leading was a young man who looked no more than seventeen years old! Behind him, only a middle-aged man looked to be in his forties, and six disciples were no more than twenty.

"Junior Xiao Luocheng from Xiao Sect, met Palace Head Qin. "When he entered the Main Palace, the young man calmly headed towards Qin Wuyou and followed the proper etiquette of a junior in a calm and refined manner. It is not slave or arrogant …. Yet as a junior who came to pay respects to the other party who was the Palace Chief of the Imperial Palace of the Profound Family, not humbling himself was already a type of arrogance.

"This is Xiao Luocheng!" Xia Yuanba took a sharp breath and immediately whispered in Yun Che's ear: "Never thought he would come here! The first day I came to New Moon City, I had already heard his name a few times. He was also sixteen years old, the same age as the brother-in-law, but he was already the Young Master of the Xiao Sect Branch Sect. Not only that, he was also publicly acknowledged as the first generation of the New Moon City younger generation!

"Number one?" Yun Che quickly glanced at Xiao Luocheng a few more times. Indeed, he looked very young, but there was a prominent maturity in his attitude, and the place between his eyebrows was filled with honor and unwavering pride. Those who saw him were filled with strange feelings .. whether astonishment, admiration, jealousy, or even shameful inferiority.

"really. With regards to innate talent, he was without a doubt, number one! He was only sixteen years old, but had reached the tenth level of the Nascent Profound Realm! I have heard that he is not far from breaking through to the True Profound Realm as well. Sister-in-law, do you believe that?

Sixteen years …. The tenth level of the Nascent Profound Realm !?

Yun Che's face was a lawsuit of emotion. He subconsciously looked at Lan Xueruo, and discovered that a layer of deep seriousness had covered his face.

“Heh-heh, Xiao Luocheng? This old man had heard of this famous name. I did not expect that there would be a chance to meet the number one generation of New Moon City youths. Your honorable father didn't come today? ”Ask Qin Wuyou while laughing without worry.

"The praise of the Qin Palace Chief is too much. Although father was eager to come alone to congratulate Palace Chief Qin on his appointment, he was unwell and could not attend today; because of this, this junior acted as his successor. Please don't take offense to this. "Xiao Luocheng's face smiled as he spoke with warm words.

Qing Wuyou was one of the leaders of the New Moon Profound Palace, so at his appointment banquet, each of the leaders of the main sects had to appear in person to show proper respect. If not, then they should at least send an elder over. Of the seven major sects present, the Iron Spear Clan, the Seven Deadly Swords Pavilion, and the Bloody Palace Sect Masters Sect Sect had all personally arrived. As for the Profound Heart Sect and the Cloudy Sun Sect, they came with the Chief Elder. Although the outer sect of the Burning Heaven Clan was arrogant, they still sent the Sixth Elder.

Yet this Xiao Sect Branch Sect, had actually sent a group of juniors!

Although Xiao Luocheng was very polite, as long as one was not stupid or blind, they could see that this was clearly some sort of naked humiliation.

"Hahahaha," Qin Wuyou laughed widely, as if he did not mind at all: "Young Master Xiao Sect, what are you saying? I have heard many things about Young Master's elegant manners every day. To finally be able to meet you today has given me my hope, so I am happy to go beyond words. Dear guests of the Xiao Sect, please sit down. ”

At this point, all the invited guests had already arrived. The Xiao Sect Branch and the Burning Heaven Clan Outer Sect naturally sat near the top. They were followed by the other five great sects, and were once again followed by the seat of New Moon City Governor Murong Hang; however, he was not even the least bit dissatisfied with his arrangements. The Murong family could cause any trouble they wanted in New Moon City, but that was only in the presence of a common little sect. Even if he was the governor of New Moon City, in the face of these seven major sects, he would have to obediently slip his tail between his legs and not even dare to offend them in the slightest.

As for the medium-sized clans invited, they were even more, trembling in fear and trepidation; it was rare for them to see a meeting of the seven major sects, let alone dare to offend one of them.
