Chapter 1190 1201: Taking the Stage
The Seven Great Elders possessed profound cultivation and extraordinary composure. Even if Mount Tai collapsed before them, they would not change their expressions. Yet, at this moment, the Seven Great Elders appeared as if they had seen something terrifying, with deep fear evident in their eyes.
Noticing the unusual demeanor of the Seven Great Elders, everyone around turned their heads to look in the direction where the elders were staring.
There, in midair, stood a person.
The entire body of this person was shrouded in a giant black robe that reached the ground.
The robe wrapped tightly around the person's body, making it impossible to discern their appearance.
Merely a person whose appearance was indistinguishable had frightened all the Seven Great Elders—who could this person possibly be?
The same question arose in everyone's minds.
At this moment, the black-robed figure slowly floated toward the stage.
Upon seeing this, Fang Hong and the other six elders couldn't help but take a step back. Only Elder Si Qin wavered briefly before flying to the front of the stage, blocking the robed figure, and said in a slightly trembling voice, "Sun Yukun, what are you here for?"
Upon hearing the name, the sixty thousand present still didn't know what it represented, but several senior disciples from Mozi Academy, like Fang Jinchun, couldn't help but change their expressions.
Just then, the black-robed person let out a wild laugh, "Hahaha, Elder Si Qin, I prefer it when others call me 'Demon.'"
At the mention of the word "Demon," Wang Yan, who was on the stage, immediately opened his eyes and slowly stood up because he remembered something.
When he once subdued the Chaos Bell, there was once a name ranked second on the Chaos Chart, but that name had been erased. The person it belonged to should be the Demon.
Wang Yan had been at Mozi Academy for a long time without seeing this so-called Demon or hearing of this matter, and he had slowly forgotten about it. He didn't expect to see him today.
At this moment, Fang Hong and the other six elders flew over, subtly surrounding the Demon.
Even when encircled by the Seven Great Elders, the Demon showed not a hint of fear and instead laughed madly, "Hahaha, elders, do you plan to hunt me down once more? Didn't you do the same thirty years ago? But unfortunately, not only did you fail to kill me, you turned Mozi Academy into ruins."
At these words, the crowd finally burst into an uproar.
This Demon, who survived being besieged by seven elders and even turned Mozi Academy into ruins, what kind of existence is he?
Fang Hong's expression changed slightly, "Hmph, if the headmaster hadn't shown you mercy back then, and if Elder Si Qin hadn't hesitated, would you have had the chance to escape? Now that you've come, we'll finish the business we left undone thirty years ago."
The Demon snorted coldly, "Wu Zu Li didn't hesitate out of weakness; he felt guilty. As for Elder Si Qin, she's indeed owed a favor. So today, in Elder Si Qin's favor, I won't go on a killing spree."
Fang Hong coldly stated, "Audacious! Now there's no longer any fraternity between us, so we won't hold back like last time. You won't escape this time."
The Demon's voice grew equally cold, "Did you have any fraternity last time? And now that I dared to come, do you think you can just stop me with your abilities?"
Hearing this, the expressions of the Seven Great Elders changed, for they had no retort.
Seeing their reaction, the crowd knew the Demon was speaking the truth.
After a moment, Elder Si Qin spoke, "Sun Yukun, since you left Mozi Academy for the Qin Family, we have nothing to do with each other. But why have you come today?"
The Demon smiled faintly and pointed behind the elders, "I'm here for him."
Elder Si Qin looked back and turned pale, for the one the Demon pointed to was Wang Yan.
"Demon, if you dare do anything to Wang Yan, I won't let you off lightly," Elder Si Qin immediately screamed.
Just moments ago, Elder Si Qin had called him Sun Yukun, but now even she referred to him as Demon, showing how filled with anger and fear she was.
The Demon replied, "Elder Si Qin, no need to worry. I'm clear about grudges. I have no enmity with him, so why would I purposefully harm him?"
"Then what do you want?" Elder Si Qin realized her loss of composure, took a deep breath, and asked.
"I've long heard Wang Yan surpassed me on the Chaos Chart, so I want to see what kind of person could be stronger than me, a prodigy not seen in a millennium."
"No way, thirty years ago you already reached Half-Venerable status. Now your cultivation is likely even deeper, and Wang Yan's only at Demon Saint Great Perfection," Elder Si Qin immediately shook her head.
"Rest assured, I promise just three moves. If he withstands my three moves, I'll leave immediately," the Demon replied.
Yet Elder Si Qin still shook her head.
The Demon smiled faintly, "Elder Si Qin, if you don't agree, I won't go against your wishes openly. I'll just turn and leave. But you can't guard him forever. I'll eventually meet him alone, and then it won't just be three moves; it might be thirty or three hundred moves. Elder Si Qin, do you want to monitor three moves or face three hundred moves when he's all alone?"
The Demon's words were calm, but the threat was clear.
The implication was evident: If Elder Si Qin didn't agree, Wang Yan would never have peace in the future.
Hearing this, Elder Si Qin hesitated.
Just then, Wang Yan spoke calmly from the stage, "Elder Si Qin, if someone challenges me, I should just accept it."
Elder Si Qin anxiously said, "Wang Yan, he's the Demon!"
Wang Yan smiled lightly, "Even the Demon was below me on the Chaos Chart."
Upon hearing this, Elder Si Qin was startled, suddenly realizing: Yes, the Demon may be a demon, but since coming to Mozi Academy, Wang Yan's deeds have been even more extraordinary than the Demon's. Given time, Wang Yan would surely surpass the Demon. But Wang Yan was still relatively new to Mozi Academy.
While Elder Si Qin hesitated, the Demon laughed heartily, "Hahaha, well said! Worthy of the person who surpassed me on the Chaos Chart. Alright, today, I will see how strong you truly are."
With those words, the Demon's body suddenly vanished, appearing on the stage.
