Chapter 130 The Previous Eastern Emperor
Just a month after the Molmo Empire had sent the Third Prince, Jersey, all the way to the East to seek revenge against the Li Fire Sect…
That was also when Lin Lei had successfully become a Great Sage.
At the Darknorth Hall in the northernmost region of the magical mainland.
The Patriarch of the Darknorth Sect who had been in closed-door cultivation, the Northern Emperor of the northernmost region, William VII, suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked towards the northern lands as if he had seen something. His gaze was complex, and at the same time, many memories were floodng his mind.
Soon, he ordered all the Darknorth emissaries who were spreading their teachings to gather at the Darknorth Hall as soon as possible.
It happened so suddenly.
All the members of the Darknorth Sect didn't know why the leader who had been in closed-door cultivation suddenly called everyone for a meeting.
However, everyone knew that something big was about to happen.
Therefore, all the Darknorth emissaries who had received the news directly gathered at the Darknorth Hall.
Ten days later.
Hundreds of Darknorth emissaries from the entire North arrived at the Darknorth Hall.
At this moment, everyone was surprised to find that many of their old friends, whom they hadn't seen for several years, had also returned!
This shocked many people.
For such a well-organized meeting, it had not been held for decades.
What did the leader have to announce?
Everyone whispered to each other, but the result of the exchange was without exception: No one knew.
Yes.
All the Darknorth emissaries received the same order: Put down everything in your hands and come back as soon as possible!
“What has made the Patriarch so serious?”
“I guess it must be something that hasn't happened in decades, and it's something that concerns our Darknorth emissaries!”
“That's right. There are tens of thousands of people in the entire Darknorth Sect, but only a hundred or more of us, Darknorth emissaries, have been summoned. It's obvious that this is closely related to our Darknorth emissaries!”
“But, what could it be? Our Darknorth emissaries have been focusing on the cultivation of magic and the enlightenment of magic of the common people in the various fiefs all these years. We have no extra time to care about other things. Why are we suddenly being called back?”
“I don't understand. Let's listen to what the Patriarch has to say…”
Many people whispered to each other.
Amidst the discussion…
Soon, the Patriarch, William VII, issued a new order —
“Everyone, please gather at the Darknorth Hall!”
A few minutes later, in the Darknorth Hall.
The Patriarch of the Darknorth Sect was sitting with his head held high in the chief seat.
In the hall, 128 Darknorth emissaries were sitting upright and didn't say a word.
Many Darknorth emissaries hadn't seen the Patriarch for many years because they had been sent out.
Many years ago, when they had met the Patriach, they had felt that his strength was unfathomable.
Now, many years had pa.s.sed. Many Darknorth emissaries, who had been weak in the past, were now at the peak of the Sage realm or experts at the Great Sage realm.
However, when they looked at the Patriarch, they found that under his white clothes, there was still a profound strength that they couldn't see through.
The Patriarch of the Darknorth Sect, William VII…
How profound was his strength?
This was a mystery that many people in the sect wanted to know, but no one knew…
“As expected of the Emperor of the northernmost region, the Patriarch should have been the number one expert in the mainland by now, right?” Someone sighed in a low voice.
But before he could finish half of his sentence, someone with a pale face hurriedly interrupted him:
“Be cautious with what you say. The Patriarch is most angry that someone mentioned about being the mainland's number one expert in front of him. Have you forgotten?”
“Ah… It's my fault, it's my fault… !”
The Darknorth emissary who was sighing instantly turned pale when he heard his companion's reminder. He quickly shut his mouth.
That's right. The Patriarch's most hated word all these years was “the mainland's number one expert”.
The reason for this was because of a hidden history many years ago.
It was rumored that many years ago, the Patriarch had just advanced to the Great Sage realm. At that time, there wasn't a single Great Sage expert in the entire northernmost.
Therefore, the Patriarch shamelessly said that he was the number one expert in the mainland.
In the end, very quickly, a young man riding a broom came from the easternmost directly shot the Patriarch down with a backhand move. He then left a message to him.
“You really think that you're worthy of being called the number one expert in the mainland? Let's talk about it after another hundred years of training!”
After saying that, the man riding on the broom left.
This matter had caused a sensation in the northernmost region.
The Patriach, William VII, had taken this as a great humiliation for the rest of his life.
He had vowed to avenge his previous humiliation.
As for that man riding the broom, he had become a celebrity in the hearts of many people in the northernmost region.
Due to this incident, the entire northernmost region had set off a wave of people riding on brooms when going out.
Many people rode on brooms in a very cool way.
That person's name was Gandalf.
His ident.i.ty was the Master of the Easternmost, also known as the Eastern Emperor.
“Everyone, silent!”
At this moment, an attendant's warning came from the great hall.
Everyone who heard this instantly felt a chill run down their spines. Then, they stared without a blink at the Patriarch in the great hall, William VII.
One could even hear a pin drop in the great hall.
The voice of the Patriarch, William was heard very quickly.
And the first sentence he said caused everyone in the great hall to be stunned.
They only heard William, the Patriarch say:
“The easternmost… the new Eastern Emperor … is born…”
Boom!
Just one sentence.
Everyone in the Hall felt their hair stand on end!
“What! ? Did I hear wrongly? The new Eastern Emperor is born?”
“Holy sh*t! What's going on? Where's Gandalf? Ah, I mean, where's the previous emperor? When did he die? Why hasn't there been any news?”
“500 years have pa.s.sed… has Gandalf finally left this world?”
“Who is the new Eastern Emperor to Gandalf? Could it be Gandalf's reincarnation?”
“Heh? Reincarnation? Do you think it's that group of baldies from the westernmost? The easternmost doesn't have such a sorcery like reincarnation!”
“I didn't expect… I didn't expect… Gandalf had actually died! I remember that 500 years ago, he was the number one expert on the mainland and the only ninth rank Magus on the mainland. When did he die?”
“Heh, have you forgotten that 500 years ago, after our Patriarch lost a great battle with Gandalf, Gandalf sealed off the road between the North and the East. After that, we lost contact with the East. Until today, I haven't seen many easterners…”
“So, the emergence of a new Eastern Emperor in the East, does this mean that the seal that Gandalf set up back then has been lifted, and we can go to the East again?”
“Haha! That seems to be the case! I remember that the seal that Gandalf set up seems to be tied to his aura of life. If Gandalf dies, that seal will definitely be lifted by itself!”
“That being said, everyone, do you dare to go to the East? 500 years ago, there were Great Sages everywhere, and Gandalf's 10 shadow guards were all Great Sages, and even Great Sages and above. Are you sure that there are weaklings there now?”
“Indeed… Now that you mention it, f*ck… my hair immediately stood on end. Doesn't this mean that those easterners are going to attack us again?”
When many people thought of this, they couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.
There was nothing that they could do. They were truly afraid of the group of experts that Gandalf had led 500 years ago. Even though 100 years had pa.s.sed and Gandalf seemed to have died, the fear in their hearts didn't diminish in the slightest.
And just then, on the high platform, the new voice of William, the Patriarch came…
