Chapter 180 - Celebration
Moreover, since the Yang God Race was able to sneak so many experts through the spatial rift, no one could guarantee that they would not be able to continue descending into this world through other spatial rifts.
Yes!
After interrogating Elder Sharp Wing, Venerable Ning Jing had already grasped the spatial rift that the Yang God Race had used to descend into this world.
It was just that the priority was to eliminate the hidden experts of the Yang God Race, so they had to put the matter of the spatial rift aside first.
This great victory could be said to be only temporary. The threat of the Yang God Race was still like a knife in their backs, and the human race had only obtained temporary peace.
Now that the Yang God Race had taken precautions, when they made a comeback, the human race’s situation would definitely be much more difficult than it was now.
The following period of time was indeed as Venerable Ning Jing had promised. There was a large banquet in the Venerable Palace to celebrate the battle to cleanse the Yang God Race and the many grandmasters present.
As expected, Wang Yi was the one who prepared the banquet this time. After all, capable people did more work.
Just as he had said, Wang Yi brought Su Shiya and Venerable Ning Jing to celebrate with the grandmasters.
At the banquet, perhaps because Wang Yi and Su Shiya’s attitudes were too easygoing, everyone was a little nervous and restrained at first, but as the banquet progressed, they gradually relaxed.
They had never thought that the Venerable, who should have been high and mighty like an immortal god, would be so casual and without airs.
As they chatted happily, everyone raised their glasses and toasted to Wang Yi and Su Shiya from afar.
As Su Shiya was not good at drinking, it did not take long for her face to turn red and her eyes to become blurry.
As for Wang Yi, he did not reject anyone. As long as someone toasted to him, he would drink all the wine in his cup. At the same time, he missed the strong white wine from his previous life even more.
Although the taste of alcohol in this world was good and had its own characteristics, it was still lacking the pleasure and enjoyment that came with drinking strong alcohol.
The atmosphere was still very warm, but someone in the crowd suddenly stood up, perhaps because the alcohol had numbed their nerves.
The person raised the wine glass in his hand and his body swayed slightly. He bowed to Wang Yi and said, “This is a rare opportunity.”
“I wonder if we have the honor to listen to the Lord Venerable preach about the Dao?”
Some people were drunk, and some were clear-headed.
At this moment, someone beside him tugged at the person who spoke and carefully reminded him, “Brother Wu, you’re drunk!”
“This is the Lord Venerable. How can you make such a request? Be careful with your words!”
The person who had just asked Wang Yi to preach the Dao immediately reacted when he heard this. His drunkenness instantly faded, and his eyes became much clearer. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and there was only one thought in his mind.
Drinking was such a nuisance!
He only saw that Wang Yi was easy-going and amiable to others. Thus, he did not even think before blurting out.
However, he subconsciously ignored the fact that no matter how easy-going the other party was, he was still a Venerable.
The banquet, which had been bustling with noise and excitement, suddenly fell silent.
The grandmasters’ drunkenness instantly dissipated. When they looked at the person who spoke, their eyes were filled with extreme surprise.
They were probably curious as to why Brother Wu was so bold to request a Venerable to preach the Dao.
When the speaker saw everyone’s gazes, he really wanted to slap himself.
He cursed himself for being crazy and speaking so carelessly. The regret in his heart was no longer minor enough to talk to others about.
Whether it was the change in expression of the person who spoke, the careful reminder of the other person, or the surprise of everyone else, Wang Yi saw everything.
However, to everyone’s surprise, Wang Yi was not displeased or angry at all.
The smile on his face remained. At the same time, he invited Venerable Ning Jing, “Fellow Daoist Ning Jing, if you’re interested, why don’t we discuss the Dao again?”
To be honest, Wang Yi was very happy to preach and discuss the Dao.
When preaching to others, one could be considered to be reviewing and revisiting their knowledge. In the process, one could reorganize their gains and discover their flaws and shortcomings.
When discussing the Dao with others, one could make up for their shortcomings with their strengths. Under the collision of the two martial arts concepts, one could grasp the mysterious spiritual light and touch the domain that one had never stepped into.
Venerable Ning Jing agreed happily upon hearing this. After all, other than Su Shiya, everyone present was a grandmaster under her command. How could she reject such a request?
Furthermore, many people yearned to discuss the Dao with an expert like Wang Yi, who had his own martial arts system. Venerable Ning Jing had also benefited greatly from their previous discussion.
Everyone was inexplicably excited when they heard this. They bowed almost at the same time and shouted, “Thank you, Lord Venerable, for teaching us!”
In particular, the person who spoke just now seemed even more excited. He thought that he had caused a catastrophe and offended the Venerable this time.
However, he did not expect that the Venerable of Cang City would not only agree, but also ask for more than what he had asked for when he was drunk.
One had to know that this was not just a lecture by Venerables, but also a discussion between Venerables.
What a great opportunity this was, and how lucky they were to have the chance to listen and comprehend their discussion.
Looking at Venerable Ning Jing, Wang Yi smiled and said, “In that case, I’ll start first. I’ll be the one to lead the way.”
Upon hearing this, Venerable Ning Jing smiled faintly and extended her hand in invitation. “Fellow Daoist Wang is too modest. Please!”
Wang Yi did not delay. Under everyone’s gaze, he slowly explained the principles of his martial arts.
His words were like the heavenly constitution. When he spoke, the laws would follow. His words were the truth, and he described endless wonderful methods and truths.
At this moment, Wang Yi seemed to have become the center of the world. Heaven and Earth, Dao and reason, and laws and rules all revolved around him.
For a moment, the banquet hall was filled with strange phenomena.
Golden lotuses surged from the ground, and immortal sounds spread from the sky. Meanwhile, endless waves of the power of the world gathered in the Venerable Palace, turning into auspicious signs.
Everyone present was intoxicated as they listened. Their consciousness seemed to be wandering between the laws of heaven and earth. Countless spiritual lights flashed through their hearts, and endless comprehension surged from the bottom of their hearts.
As Wang Yi’s words sounded, the banquet fell into a strange silence. Everyone closed their eyes tightly and entered a state of enlightenment.
Even Su Shiya, who was in a lower realm, and Venerable Ning Jing, who was in a higher realm, comprehended something.
However, everyone else had different expressions. Some were frowning, some were smiling, some seemed extremely lonely, and some were expressionless.
Wang Yi looked at everyone who was comprehending the Dao and could not help but reveal a faint smile. He sat at the side and waited patiently while protecting everyone.
