Chapter 722: Reunion

Chapter 722: Reunion

"Those people are from the Reincarnation Region! The man with the white hair is Huang Fuyu!"

"So that's Huang Fuyu. Wasn't he once the Southern Brocade Regional Monarch?"

"I heard that he was once lovers with the Palace Master Xin Yu of the Reincarnation Region, but she perished during a battle against the Heavenly Court. Somehow, in his heartbreak, Huang Fuyu's cultivation base advanced drastically to become a Dao Ancestor, and he later joined the Reincarnation Region."

"The other man looks like Palace Master Wu Yang of the Reincarnation Region, but I've never seen that woman in the white dress before. On top of that, she seems to have only just reached the High Zenith Stage."

With the emergence of Wyrm 3's trio, the crowd was abuzz with conversation once again, and most of bystanders' attention was drawn to Huang Fuyu, particularly the female bystanders.

"Rest assured, Palace Master Huang, you have my word," Yin Chengquan said as he turned to the trio.

Right at this moment, numerous streaks of light shot forth from afar before landing on the elevated platform, revealing a series of peculiar figures.

"Young Dawn Regional Master Mo Zan has arrived!"

"Heavenly Map Regional Master Xi Rensong has arrived!"

"Hundred Battle Regional Master Yue Yang has arrived!"

......

These were the regional masters who were subservient to the Infernal, Black Rope, and Reincarnation Regions, but of course, in the wake of the Three Region Conference, their affiliations were going to change drastically.

All of the people on the platform were giving off formidable auras, with even the weakest ones at the Golden Immortal Stage.

The Black Teeth Regional Monarch had also arrived, and he was accompanied by Monarch Miao Gao and Monarch Lu Hong.

"Please take a seat, everyone," Yin Chengquan invited, and all of the regional monarchs sat down, while their subordinates stood behind them.

Yin Chengquan took a seat alongside everyone else, then declared, "Let the Three Region Conference begin!"

The sound of the giant gong rang out one final time, and the four pillars of white light rapidly shrank down before fading away altogether.

......

Far away from the renowned inverted street, the buildings became sparser and sparser, and even the Infernal Servants on the streets were showing up with decreased regularity.

After leaving the inverted street, Han Li's trio had concealed their own auras as they made their way toward the Hundred Treasure Area.

Even though there were fewer pedestrians on the street, they encountered more groups of patrolling Infernal Servants.

In contrast with normal Infernal Servants, these ones were all clad in suits of black armor that only protected the chest and midsection while leaving the arms and legs exposed, appearing quite light and nimble.

The baleful qi emanating from their bodies was remarkably formidable, and they were led by a Grand Ascension cultivator, while the rest were mostly at the Body Integration and Spatial Tempering Stages.

Immediately thereafter, the nearby space warped slightly, following which two figures emerged, one of whom was none other than Fox 3.

He was accompanied by yet another familiar figure to Han Li, namely Baili Yan.

An elated look appeared on Shi Chuankong's face upon seeing this, and he asked, "Fox 3, what are you doing here? And who's this?"

"Long time no see, Brother Shi, Fellow Daoist Li. This is Fellow Daoist Baili Yan, and he's also from our Reincarnation Palace," Fox 3 introduced with a smile, following which he turned to Mo Guang with a slightly bewildered look in his eyes.

Baili Yan had already met Mo Guang back in the San Miao Tribe, and he had heard about Mo Guang from Han Li, so he wasn't all that surprised.

After briefly introducing Mo Guang to Fox 3, Han Li asked, "What are you two doing together?"

"That's a long story. Back when the True Mantra Sect ruins collapsed, I was sucked into this realm by a spatial vortex, and I almost perished to a Baleful Bone Demon. Thankfully, I had enough pills and Immortal Origin Stones on me to scrape by, and later ran into Fellow Daoist Baili," Fox 3 explained with a slightly awkward expression.

This was quite different from Fox 3's normal lackadaisical demeanor, so Han Li knew that he had to have been hiding something, and he turned to Baili Yan with an inquisitive look.

"After I left the San Miao Tribe, I went to the East Lake Region and the Square Hill Region, and I encountered Fox 3 in the Ring Shark Tribe. At the time, he was locked up in prison awaiting his execution for attempting to steal the Ring Shark Tribe's secret treasure.

“Thankfully, the Ring Shark Tribe had already decided to join the Reincarnation Region, so they handed him over to me as a gift, and we came here together after that," Baili Yan explained with a wry smile.

Han Li turned to Fox 3 with a speechless expression upon hearing this, while Shi Chuankong jibed, "Well, well, well, I thought you had a near-spotless record."

"I was feeling a little under the weather in a new realm, but that's all in the past, let's discuss the matter at hand," Fox 3 replied in a slightly bashful manner.

"How did you find us?" Han Li asked.

"I knew you came here with the San Miao Tribe, but I didn't see you there, so I assumed you must've set off for the Baleful Cleansing Pond," Baili Yan explained.

"We are indeed planning to travel to the Baleful Cleansing Pond," Han Li replied with a nod.

"That's perfect! We can all go together, and with our combined powers, our chances of success should be a little higher," Fox 3 said.

"Sounds good to me," Han Li agreed as he took a glance at Baili Yan.

Even though Mo Guang possessed the highest cultivation base of the three, it was clear that Han Li was the leader of the group, and neither Mo Guang nor Shi Chuankong raised any objections.

With that, the five of them set off once again, traveling eastward for close to another hundred kilometers before stopping again.

"This is a good place to stop. If we keep going, there will be another watchtower, and that one could also have a high-grade Infernal being stationed in it, so let's make our move here," Mo Guang said.

Atop the city wall was a row of armorclad Infernal Servants standing in a uniform formation, looking directly up ahead.

"The restrictions on these city walls are primarily for fortification and alert purposes, so we'll have to get a little closer if we want to pass through without being detected," Shi Chuankong said.

"Leave that to me," Fox 3 said as he flipped a hand over to produce a round crystal ball.
