Chapter 191: The Arrival of the Seven Sects

As Situ Gucheng returned, Situ Hongyuan no longer had any worries. Immediately, he summoned the elite disciples of the sect, preparing to sweep through the Nine Hades in three days.

At the same time, the seven sects had already made their intentions clear to the Nine Hades. Three days later, at the Spring River Tower, Ye Wuji's head would be chopped off.

Instantly, a storm surged through the Nine Hades, raining down like a mountain tempest.

More and more people flocked towards the Xuan Ming Territory, wanting to witness this world-shaking confrontation.

For a moment, the vast Xuan Ming Territory felt overcrowded, with no place to stand.

Especially along the riverside, the crowds were dense. In the sky and on the ground, figures filled the space, as if sealing off the four corners of the world and threatening to fill the riverbanks.

Yet, strangely, despite the billions of people, no one dared to approach within ten miles of Ye Chen and his companions, all observing from a distance.

"Is that Ye Wuji? He's really young!"

"With someone like him, the Nine Hades pale in comparison."

"Yes, the Thirteen Sects wanted to target Ye Wuji and divide the Four Hades Territory among themselves, but they didn't expect Ye Wuji to be so powerful, slaughtering all by himself and shattering their plans."

"The Nine Hades may fall into the hands of Ye Wuji."

People sighed, all those who had come upon hearing the news seeing Ye Chen's dignified appearance for the first time, all amazed.

"Perhaps not. The Upper Three Hades still have the Seven Sects. We cannot underestimate them. Situ Bahuang, the master of the Situ Manor, is a Saint Warrior of the Sixth Stage. In their sect, there is also a Saint Warrior of the Fifth Stage, one of the Fourth Stage, and several at the initial stage of the Saint Warrior realm."

"Jian Rongzhi and You Wuxi are both peak Saint Warriors of the Fifth Stage. Yin Sha Valley, Feng Ming Pavilion, Xuan Ming Sect, and even the Tai Chu Sect cannot be underestimated. With the arrival of the Seven Sects, there are more than ten intermediate-stage Saint Warriors. Any one of them can surpass the top ten ranks of the Lei Tian Gang Emperor List."

"The power of the Seven Sects far surpasses that of the previous Thirteen Sects. Ye Wuji's chances of victory seem slim."

Around the Spring River Tower, discussions abound.

Many of the younger generation idolized Ye Wuji, considering him nearly godlike, believing that Ye Wuji would surely unify the Nine Hades and create a miracle.

But many of the older generation remained calm, appearing worried.

The Eighteen Sects of the Nine Hades had existed for thousands of years, and in every era, there were those who wanted to unify the Nine Hades and revive the ancient dynasty, but ultimately, all attempts ended in failure.

Although Ye Wuji had shaken the Nine Hades, there were still the Seven Sects to contend with, which could not be underestimated.

If he was truly only at the Third Stage of the Saint Warrior realm, wielding artifacts, and wanted to unify the Nine Hades, he might still be far from sufficient.

While Ye Chen ignored the discussions around him, sitting by the riverside in meditation, others were not so indifferent.

Yunxia Immortal's face was solemn as she approached Mo Wenjian, standing by his side. She asked, "Mo Wenjian, you have been with Lord Ye Wuji for a long time. How do you see the approaching storm?"

Mo Wenjian, in meditation, looked up at Yunxia, responding with a question, "Are you worried?"

Yunxia Immortal smiled bitterly, how could she not be worried when the seven strongest sects of the Nine Hades were joining forces?

"To be honest, when Lord Ye Chen first mentioned unifying the Nine Hades, I was shocked. But then, I felt excited. Do you know why?" Mo Wenjian asked.

"Why?"

"Because I believe in Lord Ye Chen. He would never do anything without confidence. People underestimate him too much." Mo Wenjian looked towards Ye Chen by the riverbank, his eyes filled with awe, as if he were gazing upon a deity.

Being able to extend one's lifespan, what else could it be if not divine?

Yunxia Immortal didn't understand.

"Why did you decide to pledge allegiance before?" Mo Wenjian asked again.

"Because..." Yunxia Immortal suddenly understood. Wasn't it because she believed in Ye Wuji?

Mo Wenjian smiled, "Prepare for battle with all your might."

"Understood." Yunxia Immortal stopped asking more questions, her expression calming down.

At the same time, in the Alchemy Hall.

Situ Chen sought out Pan Wenbo, seemingly wanting him to lead the Alchemy Hall.

Not for anything else, but simply because the Supreme Hall Master, Dance Shocking Sky, respected Ye Wuji so much. If something were to happen to Ye Wuji, how would they explain themselves?

"I have already contacted Lord Ye Wuji. He doesn't need the Alchemy Hall's intervention." Pan Wenbo responded with a bitter smile, well aware of the intricate relationships involved.

"Pan Hall Master, whether Lord Ye Wuji needs it or not is one thing. What the Alchemy Hall does is another. If something were to happen to Lord Ye Wuji and the Alchemy Hall did nothing, how do you think the Supreme Hall Master would feel?" Situ Chen anxiously said.

Pan Wenbo's expression changed suddenly, slapping his forehead and cursing himself.

"I've been confined by Lord Ye Wuji, dare not leave. Situ Chen, take my jade token and order the various branches of the Alchemy Hall to gather in Xuan Ming. If there are any changes, make sure to protect Lord Ye Wuji." Pan Wenbo decisively said.

"Understood!" Situ Chen had been waiting for these words, taking Pan Wenbo's identity token and hurriedly rushing to Xuan Ming.

At the same time.

The masters of the seven sects, leading their elite disciples, headed towards Xuan Ming.

Inside the Situ Manor.

Situ Bahuang stood proudly in the sky, Situ Hongyuan leading the sect's elite disciples standing behind him, all gazing into the distance.

However, the sky remained calm as a mirror, without a ripple.

"Big brother, let's go to Xuan Ming first. When Gucheng returns, he will come to us." Situ Hongyuan stepped forward, speaking softly.

"Gucheng sent a message. He will arrive in two hours." Situ Bahuang said calmly.

"Big brother, delays may lead to changes. If we don't show up, the other six sects may make some decisions." Situ Hongyuan anxiously said.

"And so what? Today, the Situ Manor will dominate the Nine Hades alone. Those who submit will prosper, those who resist will perish." Situ Bahuang said proudly.

"However, by acting as the vanguard, we can consume the strength of other sects in advance, which is beneficial to us and harmless. Moreover, our delayed arrival may cause

 fear among the Nine Hades."

"Besides, two hours will not affect the overall situation."

Situ Bahuang nodded lightly.

"Fine, let us be the vanguard and make the Nine Hades submit!"

With a wave of his hand, Situ Bahuang led the elite disciples of the Situ Manor towards Xuan Ming.

...

The three-day period finally arrived.

By the riverside, the crowd was bustling, with countless people arriving from all corners of the Nine Hades.

Even in the Lower Three Hades, there were many who spared no effort to come here, wanting to witness Ye Wuji create another miracle.

However, the people from the Supreme Palace did not come.

It was not that they didn't want to, but because Ye Chen had instructed Silver Slashing Heaven to relay a message: the Supreme Palace did not need to come.

"Boom!"

Just as the crowd was discussing fervently, a dazzling light suddenly descended from the sky, without any warning, heading straight for Ye Chen by the riverbank.

It was an extreme white light, sharp as a blade, carrying a fierce momentum that could cleave through everything, suddenly appearing and shocking the crowd into silence, their faces pale.

The power of this attack was no weaker than that of Lei Tian Gang and others.

"Who dares to be so arrogant!"

Mo Wenjian immediately took action, sweeping out with his sword to confront the light, but it shattered suddenly, and he was sent flying madly backward, barely managed by Yunxia Immortal's intervention.

However, the expressions of both of them instantly turned dismal.

Even when they joined forces, they could only barely withstand one attack from the opponent.

"I am Mu Yuye, here to take the head of Senior Ye Wuji."

"I am Leng Qiansha..."

"I am Xuan Mingji..."

"I am Feng Lanyuan..."

"I am Jian Rongzhi..."

"I am You Wuxi..."

"The Situ Manor..."

"Here to take the head of Senior Ye Wuji!"

One after another, thunderous voices resounded like lightning, shocking the earth, making everyone lift their heads, their faces changing color.

The seven sects had arrived!

A storm was brewing!
