Imperial Treasure

Ye Zixu remained noncommittal.

He had already contacted Sui Yi, whether she would come, he had an idea about it in his heart.

Meanwhile, Mo Ke and Gu Sansi overheard these two people’s conversation thoroughly.

Gu Sansi reached out, and an orchid landed in her hand, her palm brushed over the orchid.

"Cultivating the will... this Sect Leader, is quite talented."

Gu Sansi was from Cangwu, and she generally assessed people based on the standards of the Main World. Frankly speaking, very few in this world could earn her praise.

Counting from the perspective of the Human Race.

Gu Qi could be considered one.

The promising Mo Ke was another.

Of course, people like Li Luo and Chu Yezui who were associated with Reincarnation weren’t counted among them.

Thus, very few people caught her eye.

Now, the Sect Leader should be counted among them.

"Cultivating the will," Mo Ke had also been individually tutored by Sui Yi not long ago. Her foundation and talent were several levels superior to people like Gong Jiu, understanding swiftly, now she had stepped into the level of utilizing willpower, and was just a small step away from Void-breaking, yet cultivating the will to nurture flowers and plants was quite intimidating.

How does it compare to Sui Yi?

She instinctively looked toward that pavilion...

Two beauties walked side by side, following behind Gu Qi and others gracefully, behind them were Mo Hu and other masters, and then Chu Muzhe and other key members, followed by Huang Long and Ye Zixu, these veteran loose cultivators and Sect Masters.

A group of people entered one after the other.

The people in the courtyard stood up in unison.

Yi Dao suddenly appeared on the central Orthodox path, welcoming the arriving Gu Qi and others...

The relationship between The Gate and domestic forces wasn’t completely friendly, only scoring about fifty points.

However, due to external pressure, now it could reluctantly increase ten more points, reaching sixty.

Just enough to pass.

It belonged to a lukewarm degree.

Yi Dao, as the Vice Sect Leader, coming to meet them was considered of high specification.

But what were Gu Qi and Bai Yu?

Both were commanders of a region, the former considered the country’s King Ming, the latter the Dark King, though both had never entered the national top rankings and remained concealed, cultivating; their international reputation wasn’t significant, yet The Gate knew these two were very strong.

At least, Gu Qi’s mere glance made Yi Dao, the Vice Sect Leader’s blade tremble.

"You, alone?"

Gu Qi said slowly.

Without oppression, naturally, there was no need for resistance.

But Yi Dao knew the opponent’s pressure had risen.

He didn’t speak, just gestured with his hand.

Everyone looked up.

On the third-floor corridor, Yao leaned against the railing, standing solemnly, watching them.

Even Mo Ke didn’t recognize this person, only Gu Sansi knew his identity and chuckled lightly.

"City Lord of the Underground City, this is a good thing."

Gu Qi naturally recognized Yao as well, his brows slightly moved, seemingly relaxed, yet seemingly puzzled.

"You actually came too, I’m surprised."

Yao looked at Gu Qi, his gaze sweeping over the mighty domestic strongmen densely clustered.

Quite a lot of SSS, 4S levels could also be seen at a glance.

If they lost this battle, China’s Martial Arts World would lose eighty percent of its power.

Of course, it’s the same in the West.

"Just for this skin, but I’m not waiting for you."

Gu Qi wasn’t irritated upon hearing this, saying: "I know who..."

"You certainly know..." behind Yao, the door opened, and out walked a man in a loose black robe, dragging wooden clogs.

The loose robe exposed his collarbone and some of his chest.

Such a unrestrained person seemed like a drunk lone traveler on Wolong Gang, yet also like a lonely knight fishing along the cold river.

Long black hair to shoulder like flowing ink, and eyes black to the core.

A person like this appearing immediately draws breath.

"Gu Qi, pondering too much made you lose the strategic advantage, otherwise given the relationship between your people and her, it wouldn’t be up to us wandering outside to invite her to plot big matters."

Such teasing words, only the Sect Leader of The Gate dared to say it to Gu Qi.

Gu Qi remained indifferent, arching an eyebrow at this commanding presence drawing the attention of both men and women.

"Am I still not qualified to be listed among the attendees in today’s meeting?"

The Sect Leader laughed, a laughter like flowing water, "Dare not, Yi Dao, bring them to their seats."

Yi Dao gestured, and leaders from The Gate came forth to guide the guests.

Just as Gu Qi and others were about to enter the pavilion.

Suddenly, Gu Qi turned his head.

Both the Sect Leader and Yao looked towards the street outside China Gate.

A group of people came onto the street.

More or less a hundred people.

With aggressive momentum, they were not to be trifled with.

Yao glanced once before losing interest, turning back to admire the orchids blooming in recent days.

While the Sect Leader, hands resting on the railing, said to Gu Qi: "Apparently, your reputation is greater... your arrival attracted Dongying’s Heaven Emperor Sect. Gu Qi, come up for a look, see if these youngsters have the flair we had back in the day."

The Sect Leader, Yao, and Gu Qi evidently knew and belonged to the same era, and Gu Qi was unceremonious.

In an instant, he appeared on the Sect Leader’s left side, turning his head to see those from the Heaven Emperor Sect who had already threateningly reached the main courtyard front square of China Gate.

The Heaven Emperor Sect, akin to their Imperial Guards’ presence in the R Nation.

Now mobilizing personnel to New York as well, but likely their speed was faster.

"A tiny domain, one Heaven Emperor, name is unappealing."

Gu Qi said indifferently, the other two rare to agree.

Heaven Emperor?

In this era, bearing these two names is asking for trouble?

Yet it drew cold eyes from a towering man floating above the Heaven Emperor Sect.

He certainly saw the three on the pavilion, recognizing Gu Qi and the Sect Leader, the other not recognized, but Gu Qi and the Sect Leader were already significant threats.

Facing two alone, he lacked confidence.

However...

"Sect Leader, I initially thought your departure from the decaying Central Plains was a wise move, is today a step backward?"

His voice came broad and echoed loudly, reverberating along the street.

Drawing everyone’s attention.

Already many forces had noticed when China Gate closed its doors, now with Heaven Emperor Sect blocking the square, it drew even more interest.

In front of a shop in the Southeast direction, all open-air cafe card tables had been booked by a group of stylishly dressed glamorous H-country people.

A handsome and seemingly unmatured cream boy in neat white suit watched the grand spectacle in front of China Gate, smiling.
