Chapter 1221: Chapter 1218: Under Nine Dragons City _1 Chapter 1221: Chapter 1218: Under Nine Dragons City _1 Just as the Great Emperors were worried, suddenly, He Tan raised his eyebrows and laughed, “Eh, they’re back. Haha, it seems they’re fine. Good, good.”

Not long after he spoke, Yang Chen and Wang Tong returned from afar.

“You two are finally back,” Emperor Hua Wu said grumpily, with a bit of reprimanding tone in his words.

However, it would be more accurate to call it protection than reprimand because once he scolded them, Emperor Jinshi and Emperor He Tan wouldn’t be able to say much.

Yang Chen understood Emperor Hua Wu’s meaning. “We made the seniors wait a long time, and it was mainly because of some junior private matters that delayed our return. It’s entirely my fault, and it has nothing to do with Senior Wang Tong!”

Wang Tong felt very grateful in secret. By saying that, Yang Chen showed that he cared, at least enough to take responsibility.

How could Emperor He Tan and Emperor Jinshi say anything about it? They said, “It doesn’t matter, as long as you’re back. We still have time anyway!”

Only Emperor Hua Wu slightly scolded them in public to make a point.

He Tan said, “Since the two of you are back, it’s time for us to depart. I believe you both should be very clear about the Trial Convention.”

“Yes!” Yang Chen and Wang Tong agreed.

Qin Xueru and her parents stayed in Jin Xing Town. The reunited family needed some quality time together. Yang Chen could understand, so he returned alone with Wang Tong.

Now that they were back, the Northern Territory Sect’s team set off for Nine Dragons City after a brief discussion.

It’s worth mentioning that only Emperor Hua Wu and Emperor He Tan traveled with the Northern Territory Sect, while Emperor Jinshi stayed at home.

On their way, Yang Chen asked Emperor Hua Wu about the Trial Convention.

Even the Great Emperors didn’t know much about the event, but they knew a lot more than Yang Chen.

The Trial Convention invited almost all significant forces in the Central Capital region, at least hundreds of them, small and large. Normally, the Royal Family kept the only Trial Tower made from the Creation Ancient Tree completely closed. Even their own people needed to be absolutely trustworthy to use it.

But this time, they let so many outsiders use it, which even a fool would know that the Royal Family had some hidden intentions.

However, the Northern Territory Sect could not resist the temptation of the benefits. Like everyone else, they went to Nine Dragons City regardless of the consequences.

Most other forces could not resist the benefits either.

Once the Northern Territory Sect’s team arrived in Nine Dragons City, they understood this, as the city had many reputable forces arriving throughout this time.

There were three forces arriving together with the Northern Territory Sect.

One of them was the renowned Sea Drawing Sect.

The Northern Territory Sect’s team rode on the Crimson Phoenix Flying Ship, an extremely rare high-tier Xuantian treasure, made of phoenix feathers and close to a top-tier treasure. It was said to be He Tan’s personal treasure and was usually used for the Northern Territory Sect’s journeys.

Riding on the Crimson Phoenix Flying Ship, the Northern Territory Sect’s team was more prestigious than other forces.

However, the Sea Drawing Sect was not overshadowed at all.

The entire Sea Drawing Sect traveled on waves, with a large number of their team members in the midst of the waves. It was very strange.

“This is the Ancient Wave Cloud Boat, the Sea Drawing Sect’s traveling treasure!” Wang Tong explained to Yang Chen, who was sitting next to him.

Yang Chen nodded his head.

At this moment, the Sea Drawing Sect and the Northern Territory Sect encountered each other, so the Great Emperors from both sides stepped forward.

The Sea Drawing Sect had two great emperors joining them, just like the Northern Territory Sect. The emperors from both sides engaged in pleasantries upon meeting each other.

“Does the Northern Territory Sect have a good relationship with the Sea Drawing Sect?” Yang Chen asked, puzzled by the sincere smiles on both sides.

Wang Tong nodded and explained, “Well… it’s not exactly a good relationship, but it’s stronger than our relationships with the Mountain Suppression Sect and Ling Nu Sect. Our Northern Territory Sect seldom interacts with the outside world, so our relationship with those two sects is always strained. The Sea Drawing Sect is just a bit closer to us, and there have been some interactions and marriages between us, so the relationship is harmonious, but that’s all. Yang Chen, you must know that there are no absolute allies among the Four Sects, everyone is for themselves.”

Yang Chen understood the logic. The whole Central Capital Region had intense internal strife, that’s why he joined the Northern Territory Sect, which at least had some human touch while other forces were simply too cold-hearted.

“The Sea Drawing Sect has Dividing Water Emperor on their left side and Spiritual River Emperor on their right side in this trip,” Wang Tong said.

Yang Chen nodded and listened carefully to the conversation among the Great Emperors.

“Haha, our Sea Drawing Sect is only here to join in the fun. Regardless, the Royal Family is at the core of our human race. If they send out an invitation, our Sea Drawing Sect will naturally echo their call,” Dividing Water Emperor said with a hearty laugh.

Naturally, no one took those hypocritical words seriously.

He Tan knew that Dividing Water Emperor’s words were nonsense and didn’t care. He said, “Alright, let’s all enter the city. We can discuss joining the fun once we’re in Nine Dragons City!”

At the moment, both forces were in the sky outside Nine Dragons City. As these words fell, everyone descended.

When the guards of Nine Dragons City saw other forces, they didn’t bother much. But when they saw the Sea Drawing Sect and Northern Territory Sect, they couldn’t treat it lightly.

A general-level expert appeared immediately, standing on the city wall.

Yang Chen took a closer look, and the general in black armor was as powerful as Wang Tong, reaching the peak of the Heavenly Martial Realm.

“What a powerful expert! Even a gate-keeping leader is so strong?” Yang Chen couldn’t help but secretly admire the Royal Family’s strength.

“This junior is Fu Chong, stationed at the east gate of Nine Dragons City. I’m honored to welcome the Sea Drawing Sect and Northern Territory Sect. Greetings to the Great Emperors of both sects,” Fu Chong said with perfect manners, without any intentions to overstep.

Despite the backing of the Royal Family, he was facing several Great Emperors who could kill him if they wished. It’s unlikely that anyone from the Royal Family would come forward to speak for him if that happened.

“Alright, Fu Chong, we want to enter Nine Dragons City to participate in the Trial Convention hosted by the Royal Family. I believe you should know something about this,” Dividing Water Emperor said with a loud voice.
