Chapter 204 - 204 Meeting The Sage
204 Meeting The Sage
The Lords in the outside world had already gotten a general idea of the changes that had occurred in the competition ground.
Before this, they couldn’t interfere with anything in the arena.
However, things were different now. Ever since the mythical beast had awakened and spread its wings, all restrictions were gone.
The limitations no longer existed.
The Lords were taken out of the arena one by one. Xu Yuan couldn’t leave because he sensed Su Wan was still in the arena.
After waiting for a while, Su Wan finally arrived. She seemed surprised to appear in the area, which was now riddled with holes.
“Xu Yuan, you’re okay!” said Su Wan. “What’s going on here?”
Su Wan was currently at a loss. She had consumed the God’s Core and had gained a lot of knowledge from it.
She had been so engrossed in figuring it out that she had forgotten that the world had changed. She had been summoned by a mysterious power to spear here.
“We need to go back,” said Xu Yuan.
Su Wan still had a lot of questions. She wasn’t even sure if the tournament was really over. Who won? Where were the other contestants?
Unfortunately, now was not the time to ask.
The entire arena, which was on the back of the mythical beast, was disintegrating fast. That wasn’t a problem for Xu Yuan and Su Wan. They could both fly.
Before Su Wan could transform into her Demonic Dragon form, a space vortex appeared. From the depths, a white hand reached and grabbed her. She was pulled into the vortex.
“Xu Yuan!” Su Wan shouted at him.
She reached out and grabbed his arm in a hurry. They fell into the space vortex together.
The sky and earth spun. When it finally stopped spinning, Su Wan and Xu Yuan realized they were in their territory.
“You are… the Sage of the Moon!” exclaimed Su Wan. She saw the figure that had pulled her into the vortex.
Su Wan had encountered many powerful beings on her journey. She had seen the deputy of the King of Heaven, the Fallen Angel. She had met the Dark Enchanter, the daughter of the Dark Magician Marshal.
However, the person in front of her stunned her, nonetheless. This person was one of the most powerful Lords in existence.
Su Wan wanted to thank him but, right then, an anxious voice sounded from afar. “Wanwan, you are finally safe!”
It was Shi Linglong! The troublemaker, Shi Linglong!
Shi Linglong completely ignored the Sage of the Moon and ran to give her a hug.
“Linglong, I am alright. I am fine, really.”
Su Wan looked at the Sage of the Moon.
Meanwhile, the Sage of the Moon didn’t look at her. His attention was focused on Xu Yuan.
As one of the strongest among the Lords, the Sage of the Moon’s vision and power were unquestionable. However, he didn’t know the true identity of Xu Yuan. After all, Xu Yuan had only recently transmigrated into the Hero Plane.
There was always a delay in the information being passed down from the upper to the lower realms, so nobody was aware that the Dark Demon Dragon had recently appeared.
The Sage of the Moon did not recognize Xu Yuan. He only thought of him as a mysterious and powerful hero on Su Wan’s side.
“Are you alright?” asked the Sage of the Moon.
“Yes. Thank you so much for your concern.”
The Sage of the Moon smiled faintly. “Little Linglong, I have returned your friend to you. Don’t bother me with this again.”
Su Wan understood that Shi Linglong somehow knew the Sage of the Moon personally. Shi Linglong scratched her head in embarrassment.
The Sage of the Moon spoke. “This girl had been pestering me since the arena lost contact with the Overlord Plane. She had been appearing in my place and bothering me to help you.”
Su Wan was touched. Her friend had been working very hard to get her back safe and sound. “Thank you so much, Linglong, for worrying about me!” Su Wan turned to the Sage of the Moon. “And thank you so much for your help as well!”
Su Wan did not ask how Shi Linglong knew the Sage of the Moon. Not yet anyway.
At this time, other Sages had also arrived.
Sages rarely appeared in front of the public eye. But most were gathered here today.
“Su Wan, right?” said the Sage of the Moon. “Tell me what transpired in the arena.”
Even though he had received some information from Lord Aiur, he was still unsure about the whole situation. He needed more information from other Lords to form a conclusion.
Su Wan brought up the Dark Screen. That was the most essential thing right now. She told him that the entire matter was connected to the Dark Screen.
Lord Carla had declared that the Dark Screen had planned everything, after all.
Most of the Lords knew about this.
“Dark Screen…”
The Sage of the Moon frowned. He felt that something was wrong. “What happened to the mythical beast?”
Su Wan told him all she knew about the mythical beast so far. However, she didn’t mention the God’s Core.
The God’s Core was the stuff of legends and myths, after all. Nobody even knew if it existed for real. There was no need for her to mention it. If she did, she could get into trouble for using it.
Su Wan wasn’t sure how much the Sage of the Moon knew about it. However, she told him everything, excluding the God’s Core incident.
