?”That’s good.” Jia Yuyan nodded and then looked outside. “They’re here.”

“You don’t need to say anything, Little Yuyan. Let me and the others speak to them, or they will make a scene in this place if they find out about your abilities.” Xian Di spoke as he led Jia Yuyuan to sit on an empty chair.

Soon, a man with a horse-like physique, often referred to as a centaur, arrived at the location. He then entered the hut and inquired about their intentions. “Hey, why did you guys suddenly call us all to gather in this place?”

“Let’s wait for the others to arrive, Ban Zhuo.”

“All right.” Ban Zhuo went straight to that side as he looked at Jia Yuyan, but Xian Di glared at him fiercely to protect the little girl. “I heard that you went to Sky Cloud Realm to meet your disciple, but I didn’t expect you to arrive here before me, Old Di.”

“Haha.” Xian Di laughed at that. “Did you forget that my flying artifact is much faster than all of you?”

“Of course not. We bought our flying artifacts from you, so it’s only natural that you keep the best one for yourself.” Ban Zhuo then turned to Nu Wang. “It’s rare to see you come alone, and you usually bring your daughter to meet us.”

“I sent my daughter somewhere else, and it has something to do with our reason for asking you all to gather.” Ban Zhuo raised his eyebrows after hearing Nu Wang’s answer. “The three prophecies relate to this matter.”

“So the three prophecies have started to come true, huh?”

“Yes.” Lu Yi answered Ban Zhuo’s question. “The man with nine elements has appeared, and there are several mythical beasts on his side, which trigger the second prophecy, and it will soon come true.”

Ban Zhuo’s expression turned serious after hearing that. “If the second prophecy does come true, then we will suffer the consequences of the third prophecy, and the darkness will engulf this universe for a long time.”

“The second prophecy will come true, and the mysterious tower will be the starting point. Honestly, we can’t say for sure, but we suspect that the trigger is Jing Shen, and the one who will fulfill it is Zhu Ling.”

“Jing Shen?” All of them nodded at Ban Zhuo. “That guy is indeed evil, and Zhu Ling is too stupid to trust him. So you guys are thinking about doing something against the spirit race?”

“No.” 𝘳𝘦.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Jia Yubai then said to Ban Zhuo. “We won’t do anything against the spirit race, especially since the majority of them don’t know about this matter. However, we have to find a way to stop that man, especially since he will become very strong, and we won’t be able to stop him if we don’t unite.”

Ban Zhuo wanted to ask them again, but a white horse with two wide wings suddenly landed in front of the room, and it quickly turned into a white-haired young woman with enchanting features. Her look was like that of a woman in her early thirties with two wide blue eyes, and she looked elegant in a plain white dress. The aura emanating from her body made those present feel very calm, and a transparent white light enveloped her body.

As she walked gracefully into the room, the woman greeted the others, but her eyes lit up the moment she saw Lu Yi, and she immediately moved behind her before embracing her. “Hehehe, I haven’t seen you for several hundred years, and I’m glad to see you again today, Mother.”

“You never change, Fei Ma.” Lu Yi pulled her onto his lap before hugging her. “Back then, you were still a weak little horse, but you are mature and strong now, and you can even rise to become the leader of your race in a short time.”

“Haha.” Fei Ma laughed softly and hugged Lu Yi’s neck. “Isn’t this all because of you? If you hadn’t saved me at that time, I would have died because of that poison. Moreover, you taught me many things that have made me as strong as I am now. Without your guidance, I would not have been able to become the leader of my race, but I’m still inferior to you.”

“I only taught you some useful things, and your achievements now are the result of your own hard work.”

“Even though you say that, I will always be grateful to you, Mother.” Fei Ma then got off Lu Yi’s lap and sat beside her. “So the rest of them haven’t arrived yet, huh?”

“They will arrive soon.” Nu Wang said as she turned to Fei Ma. “Hey, have you prepared those items?”

“Yes.” Fei Ma nodded to Nu Wang. “After you contacted me, I immediately prepared them, so I only arrived today. However, I’m not sure that they will be useful to stop that guy, but I might be able to use something else to stop him.”

Nu Wang certainly understood what Fei Ma meant. “Perhaps we can stop that person if you use that, but the risk is too great for you, and if something bad happens to you, your clan will split again. That’s why we will use it as a last option, and you can use it if our plan fails.”

Shortly after, a group of individuals, both men and women, arrived at that location. They were all the leaders of nature races.

Upon their gathering, Lu Yi immediately initiated a discussion, outlining the plans he and the others had previously formulated. In addition, she provided them with a detailed explanation of the challenges they would face in the future. However, they were shocked when she revealed her suspicions that Zhu Ling was the one who would bring darkness into their universe.

Suddenly, the leader of the fairy race, a tiny woman with long light-blue hair and four butterfly wings, inquired. “Are you sure that Zhu Ling will do that?”

“For now, it’s just our guess, but the possibility is big, You Ya.”

You Ya didn’t doubt Lu Yi’s words, especially since she was the oldest among them. “If that man really is going to bring darkness to our universe, wouldn’t it be better if we stopped him before he did? If we lock him up in that place, I’m sure that he won’t be able to escape. If necessary, we can kill him, so the third prophecy will not come true.”

“Unfortunately, that man will never die, especially since he already has immortal energy in his body.” Not only did You Ya turn to Nu Wang in shock, but Ban Zhuo and several others were also shocked to hear that. “This matter started because Luxuria sacrificed Invidia for him, and he has inherited her immortal energy.”

“Luxuria is truly insane; I never thought that she would dare go that far for the sake of a human man.” A tiny man with a pointy green hat and a long white beard said that with a heavy sigh. “So what do you guys think we should do now? If we can’t stop or kill that man, I think it would be better if we stopped the trigger, so we should capture Jing Shen, but Zhu Ling will stop us, especially since he’s trusted him too much.”

“I agree with you, Yin Shu.” A man with a giant body spoke from outside the room. “Even though Zhu Ling will stop us, it would be better for us to try to capture Jing Shen rather than waiting for the third prophecy to be fulfilled.”

“That’s what we called you all here for, Zu Juren.” Lu Yin then asked the others. “What do you all think? We have indeed prepared several plans regarding that man, but we are also thinking about preventing the third prophecy from being fulfilled, and the only way to do that is to capture Jing Shen. However, Nu Wang, Fei Ma, and I can’t go there, especially since our preparations aren’t completely perfect, so some of you have to go to catch him.”

“In that case, I will go to that mysterious tower.” You Ya was the one who volunteered first. “However, I won’t be able to face Zhu Ling with my current cultivation, and she will easily be able to stop me.”

“I’m in.”

“Me too.”

Ban Zhuo and several leaders of other races also volunteered, and Lu Yi spoke to them directly. “Since all of you agreed, it would be better if you guys leave now, especially since Zhu Ling and Jing Shen are already on their way there, or else you’ll be late.”

Without waiting any longer, Ban Zhuo and the others left that place and headed to the mysterious realm, and those who didn’t go there returned to their respective places, except for four people.

“Do you think they can stop that, Little Yuyan?” Xian Di questioned the little girl.

Jia Yuyan thought for a moment before shaking her head at him. “Grandpa Di, they won’t be able to stop the third prophecy from being fulfilled, but they can stall the time for it to be fulfilled, so we have more time to prepare ourselves.”

After hearing Jia Yuyan’s answer, they let out heavy sighs, but they also surmised that the three prophecies would still come true, so they could only brace for the worst.
