Strongest Abandoned Son Chapter 2252 - Demon Race Ceremony
Previously on Strongest Abandoned Son...
“So it’s pill divine Ye’s grand arrival. Please pardon Yi for not recognizing you. This way please, pill divine Ye...” Yi Yuanzhou promptly turned extremely welcoming.
Yi Yuanzhou displayed far superior demeanor compared to Fan Gao.
“Pill divine Ye...”
“Ye qian bei...”
“Divine emperor Congyin...”
Numerous guests were already seated within the guest palace by the time Ye Mo and Tang Congyin stepped inside. Countless individuals hailed Ye Mo right upon their entrance.
The majority of those hailing Ye Mo were attendees from Ao Xi’s primordial essence ceremony. They had witnessed Ye Mo’s formidable strength. He had escaped unscathed despite being besieged by several primordial essence divine emperors. His boldness in showing up here revealed zero fear on his part.
Moreover, rumors swirled that the beast, aquarius, dragon, and demon race primordial essence divine emperors were hunting Ye Mo. Yet now Ye Mo appeared while those four primordial essence divine emperors had vanished.
“Haha, Ye Mo, you always arrive after me.” Jiao Dan spotted Ye Mo entering and burst into laughter.
Jiao Dan showed far more enthusiasm toward Ye Mo than Len Shuoqi did.
Tang Congyin sighed, “Sigh, I won’t accompany pill divine Ye next time. I’m a stunning beauty, yet nobody notices me when I’m with pill divine Ye.”
Her words were truly skillful. Although many had greeted Ye Mo upon arrival, just as many eyed him with hostility. Tang Congyin’s remark instantly lightened the mood.
“Ye Mo, where’s my father?” A sharp voice shattered the amicable vibe. It carried such fury as if ready to swallow Ye Mo whole on the spot.
Ye Mo turned to the speaker. It was the dragon race’s Ao Man.
Truthfully, Ao Man had once held a favorable view of Ye Mo, but that vanished when her father disappeared while pursuing him.
Before Ye Mo could reply, Ao Luan scolded, “Mind your manners, Ao Man. Don’t let others mock you.”
Ao Luan then clasped his fists in salute to Ye Mo. “Pill divine Ye is youthful yet possesses astonishing might. Ao Luan hopes to exchange pointers with you when you have time.”
Ye Mo replied indifferently, “I’ll fight to the finish against anyone who challenges me. However, each challenger gets only one shot.”
“Hmph, so arrogant.” A cold snort echoed. Ye Mo had noticed this figure from the start. He had radiated killing intent toward Ye Mo since the beginning. This was the beast race primordial essence divine emperor Fan Gao. Beside him sat Zhuge Tianhua, another primordial essence divine emperor, though his aura remained unsteady.
Ye Mo paid him no heed and simply chose a seat.
Fan Gao seethed with rage, yet he could do nothing about it.
Once seated, Ye Mo glanced at a half-primordial essence individual. He detected an aura reminiscent of the winged race primordial essence divine emperor Cang Luo.
Noticing Ye Mo’s gaze, this half-primordial essence divine emperor rose swiftly and saluted with clasped fists. “Winged race Hong Hao greets pill divine Ye.”
“Cang Luo likely hasn’t returned, has he? Otherwise, you couldn’t sit here peacefully.” Ye Mo stated.
The assault from the four races stemmed from Cang Luo’s chaos green lotus. The vanishing of those four primordial essence divine emperors tied directly to Cang Luo.
“Divine emperor Cang Luo has abandoned the winged race and is no longer our primordial essence divine emperor. Since this incident, the winged race lives in fear, and we’ve offered apologies to every race. Allow me to apologize on behalf of the winged race to pill divine Ye as well.”
Hong Hao appeared genuinely terrified.
Ye Mo sneered inwardly. Only a fool would buy that Cang Luo had left the winged race. No one would accept such a claim. He had probably shown up merely to issue apologies and draw attention.
With the winged race’s apology in place, no one could justify wiping them out without proof. Besides, Ye Mo knew other races wouldn’t destroy them over this alone. It served no purpose unless Cang Luo was confirmed to be there.
Lacking Cang Luo’s presence, and with him being a primordial essence divine emperor lurking in shadows, no race would risk annihilating the winged race.
“No need to apologize to me. I’ll handle matters with Cang Luo myself when we meet.” Ye Mo responded coolly.
Hong Hao ignored the edge in Ye Mo’s tone, saluted with fists, and sat back down. He looked entirely composed.
“I never thought I’d see immortal friend Lian here. Yuanzhou can hardly believe it. Please come in, immortal friend Lian...” Yi Yuanzhou’s warm voice rang out again. Clearly, another primordial essence divine emperor had arrived.
“Haha, it’s been ages since I met some old pals. I came to catch up and show my young disciple around.” A rough voice boomed.
From that voice alone, Ye Mo instantly recognized the newcomer.
“Immortal friend Lianyao, to meet you again is truly beyond my expectations. I’ve visited Yuan Yan palace several times, only to find it sealed by a formation. Encountering immortal friend Lian today is an immense delight...” Ao Luan stood up and remarked.
Len Shuoqi and Fan Gao also rose to their feet. Jiao Dan, however, sneered and averted his gaze. Tang Congyin stayed seated, obviously not recognizing this individual.
The blue-robed man swiftly turned his attention to Ye Mo.
“You’re here too?” the blue-robed man asked, taken aback.
Ye Mo responded calmly, “You can come, but I can’t?”
Evidently, this blue-robed man was a human race primordial essence divine emperor. While the human race faced turmoil, he secluded himself in Yun Yan palace, mingling closely with the demon and beast races. Ye Mo instantly took a strong dislike to him. His disciple happened to be the immortal realm’s Feng Kong grand emperor.
Spotting Feng Kong once more, Ye Mo resolved not to spare him. Still, he held back from striking now, as they were in demon race territory. Killing him here would spark universal outrage. If he struck at all, it would require a proper justification later.
Feng Kong had also noticed Ye Mo. Witnessing him seated alongside the primordial essence divine emperors sent shockwaves through his heart.
What had Ye Mo been in the past? Despite managing to battle him and drawing over a dozen immortal emperors to his sect opening ceremony, Feng Kong had merely seen him as a potential threat. He was certain that eventually, he would utterly surpass Ye Mo.
Yet now, Ye Mo sat among primordial essence divine emperors, and his master clearly knew Ye Mo.
He lowered his eyes. With his master present, Ye Mo posed no threat. He wondered what profound secrets allowed Ye Mo to cultivate at such astonishing speed. Even he couldn’t perceive Ye Mo’s current cultivation level.
Transitioning from Divine Dao Realm to divine emperor, he had wandered the void for hundreds of years before chancing upon his master. He’d remained at Yun Yan palace with his master ever since—a stroke of incredible fortune. Ye Mo lacked a master yet progressed even faster. How could his secrets be ordinary?
The green-robed man simply smiled at Ye Mo’s unfriendly tone. He seemed disinclined to engage further with Ye Mo. Glancing at Jiao Dan, he said nothing. When his eyes fell on Tang Congyin, he smiled and said, “This must be the phoenix race immortal friend. How is immortal friend Yaoqing?”
Tang Congyin stood and saluted with clasped fists. “My master is doing very well, thank you for asking.”
“Excellent. Please pass on my message to her: Lian Yaoduo thanks her for the past favor. When I have time, I’ll certainly visit.” The green-robed man stated.
Noticing the greetings had concluded, Yi Yuanzhou hurriedly said, “Please, everyone, partake in these immortal fruits. It’s a marvelous gathering with so many immortal friends present.”
He then instructed the two beautiful maids behind him, “Summon our demon race saint to greet everyone.”
