Chapter 675: Chapter 526 It Doesn’t Know My Name_2

Shen Yi entered the palace relatively late.
Those who could ascend to this treasure palace had unspeakably exalted status in Western Hong, and most of them were intricately connected to a Cultivator of the Union Dao Realm Stage.
Even the seating arrangements were meticulously considered.
For instance, the Daozi from the Blue Sea Sect was also in the palace; the sect she sought assistance from must have a Union Dao Realm Sect Master, indicating an extremely close relationship, and therefore her seat was in a very forward position.
Yu Lan, who was mistaken for a member of the Glazed Green Phoenix Clan, also took a seat in a comparable area.
In contrast, Shen Yi, quietly led by the black Jiao guard to the corner: "Please."
Leaving behind a simple word, it then turned and left.
"..."
Shen Yi sat cross-legged, not quite accustomed to the hierarchy, but nonetheless quite content.
After all, besides Cultivators, the Demons who could enter this grand hall definitely had considerable backgrounds.
This position was just convenient for him to observe secretly.
Of course, apart from that, he really didn’t want anyone to come over and chat, as he still didn’t know the Dragon Consort’s name, her age, or how many Lifespan Years she had left.
Since he arrived fairly late, the Cultivators who had arrived earlier were already engaging in conversations with one another.
Shen Yi, pretending to admire the dancing beauties, was actually thinking about other things, and before he could listen carefully, he sensed an odd tension in the atmosphere.
It was related to the overly chaotic situation in Western Hong.
All top powers gathered together, inevitably having disputes over interests, thus conversations had an undercurrent of sarcasm.
The only Cultivators who could stay out of the fray were probably just Shen Yi and that Daozi from the Blue Sea Sect.
Shen Yi didn’t mind, after all, being new here, it was good for him to hear some rumors, making it easier to choose targets in the future and possibly even leveraging forces against each other.
The Blue Sea Sect Daozi showed no interest at all, sitting quietly and taking occasional sips of fine wine.
However, in the next moment, she slightly raised her eyes: "..."
It was because a Sea Serpent Great Demon, not wishing to let the awkward atmosphere persist, awkwardly shifted the topic elsewhere, a matter completely unrelated to Western Hong.
"Do you know why Qi Family’s master left Western Hong and where he has gone?"
At these words, everyone looked over with interest, as this was the Dragon Consort’s birthday celebration, and Qi Family’s master was not in Mount Yu; with his famous uxorious nature, wouldn’t he fear offending the Dragon Consort?
The Sea Serpent chuckled lightly, "Qi Family’s master led troops into Southern Hong for the sake of the South Hong Seven Sons."
The phrase "South Hong Seven Sons" echoed in the hall, casting a shadow of intrigue on many Cultivators and Demons’ faces, with those in forward positions, representing great powers, beginning to whisper among themselves.
After thinking for a while, their minds no longer held a clear concept of that illustriously famous power from a hundred thousand years ago.
Since that event, not to mention the Seven Sons, even the entirety of Southern Hong seemed to disappear from Hongze, hiding away without a trace.
The Blue Sea Sect Daozi closed her eyes, her expression serene.
Even when Cultivators and Demons mentioned her Sect in conversation, their words were far from respectful and even contained slight mockery and banter.
But as a Daozi, she had the patience to endure.
Moreover, the current situation of the Nanyang Seven Sons was indeed difficult, no wonder others scoffed.
"Drink wine." Next to the Blue Sea Sect Daozi, a young man in luxurious clothes casually raised his cup, gently offered consolation.
They too were one of the giants of Western Hong, known as the Yunhe Sect, and although they did not possess a second He Dao Bao Di, their Sect Master was quite formidable and was one of the main targets that the Nanyang Sect sought assistance from.
"I understand," the Blue Sea Sect Daozi picked up her wine cup, responding calmly.
She had come to seek help, not to cause trouble; moreover, being brought here by the Yunhe Sect also showed the South Hong Seven Sons that they indeed were occupied with a matter at hand, and the chances of returning to Southern Hong for reinforcement after its resolution were quite significant.
However, before the wine cup reached her lips, the Blue Sea Sect Daozi’s eyes suddenly turned colder.
"Of course, today is the Dragon Consort’s birthday; we shall not discuss such matters of violence, and besides, there is no need for that."
According to the Sea Serpent Great Demon, since the Western Dragon Palace had intervened, the downfall of the South Hong Seven Sons was already a matter of time.
A hundred thousand years ago, under the leadership of Sect Master Qin, along with six other Cultivator Sect Masters of equal might in the Union Dao Realm, the seven top powerhouses dominated Hongze impressively.
But after that event, the peace between Cultivators and Demons was suddenly shattered, and without discussing the sweeping wars, the annexation of smaller powers by larger ones occurred frequently, with the Demon Race seizing the opportunity to devour many Sect treasures.
Within the great wars of life and death, it was easier for heroes to emerge.
Just the current Western Dragon Palace alone had more than seven Union Dao Realm Great Demons, not to mention the entire Southern Dragon Palace, and the Seven Sons lacked the strongest Sect Master Qin; without the interference of other powers, their downfall was almost a foregone conclusion.
"What I am about to say, is a joke I heard."
Seeing that he had aroused the crowd’s interest, the Sea Serpent Great Demon stood up, and with a barely contained laugh, bowed his head, "As you know, those South Hong Seven Sons, amidst their dire straits, still had the leisure to hold some pompous Seven Sons Grand Assembly, refusing to be a phoenix’s tail and choosing to be a rooster’s head instead, leading South Hong’s ragtag bunch, at least giving them a faint taste of their former glory."
