3305 Invitation
After returning to their respective sects, the members quickly arranged the sect’s affairs. Simultaneously, they spread the word and invited Strong Exponents from around the world to prepare for the battle against the Skylink Monarch. The Blue Star Immortal Sect was the location where they all would gather.
When the news got out, it caused quite a stir in various places. Some strengthened their own families’ defences, remaining vigilant. Others took their families and fled to other locations in an attempt to avoid the impending events.
Although there were many Strong Exponents in various regions, very few cultivators set off for the Cardinal Point City and the Blue Star Immortal Sect at this time after hearing the news.
Some people had considerable strength, but they couldn’t leave because they had to protect their families. Their families were also reluctant to let them face such powerful opponents and experience a battle that was certain to be fatal.
On the other hand, there were loose cultivators who had no attachments or concerns, and they went to the Blue Star Immortal Sect to contribute their efforts. There were also cultivators who sought fame and reputation and travelled to the Blue Star Immortal Sect in the hopes of making a name for themselves in this event…
After hearing the news, Du Fan and the others took no further action. They simply observed the movements of the various factions. In these five years, they had amassed an immense influence in the Upper Realm. There were major sects out in the open, but Hell’s Palace’s influence covered everything underground, making all parties wary.
However, the people of Hell’s Palace had remained elusive for the past five years, and no one could find any information about them. It was unclear whether they were good or evil…
In Cardinal Point City, Guan Xilin drank and ate while listening to the people in the tavern talk. He narrowed his eyes, ate the last piece of meat on his plate that was covered in sauce, belched, wiped his mouth, and called out.
“Waiter, bring me the bill!” His deep voice carried such vigour that those who hadn’t noticed him before turned to look at him.
Someone asked, “Brother, are you going to the Blue Immortal Sect?”
Guan Xilin gave the person a sidelong glance and replied, “No.” He then asked the waiter, who was hurrying over, how much it would cost. He stood up and prepared to leave after paying the bill when the cultivator’s voice rang out again.
“I thought he was some kind of hero! Turns out he’s just a coward!”
“Hahaha! Brother Li, you’re overestimating him. Take a look at him; all he has is brute strength. He’s just a mystical cultivator. How can he compare to us?” Another cultivator at the table burst into laughter, mocking Guan Xilin with contemptuous eyes.
“That’s right. Even if he goes, he’ll likely end up being killed. No wonder he does not dare to go.” Another cultivator said, glancing disdainfully at Guan Xilin.
The people in the tavern couldn’t help but hold their breath when they heard their banters. These few people were indeed powerful. They were said to be the Strong Exponents who responded to the call to help the Blue Star Immortal Sect. They had been causing trouble in this city for the past two days, and many cultivators who couldn’t bear it had been seriously injured after clashing with them. Their names had spread, but not in a good way. They were simply known for bullying the weak.
People in the tavern couldn’t help but gulp when they saw the tall and muscular man. The man looked very imposing and cold. Very few people would risk offending someone like him. Even though that person was a mystical power cultivator, it was enough to scare people.
He had no intention of arguing with these people, but as he stepped downstairs, the cultivator stretched out a foot…
