Chapter 864: Chapter 658: A Reunion at the Appointment_2
Of course, some might say that neither Jenna nor Mai Zhuo can be considered true Sanctuary powerhouses. They merely had mana that reached the level of the Sanctuary, one only studied Rejuvenation, and the other relied on servants; such individuals indeed could not boast of their magic strength. However, both of them had been famous for many years and had never met any opponents, yet now they had died at the hands of Long Yi, doesn’t that prove Long Yi’s strength?
Long Yi soon arrived at The Divine Auffa Empire. On this planet brimming with magical civilization, Long Yi could feel an exceptionally abundant supply of mana. He had just disembarked from the passenger airship when a squad of guards approached him.
"Mr. Long Yi, we are members of the Imperial Guard, ordered to welcome your arrival!"
Long Yi nodded. As someone from another plane, being welcomed by the Imperial Guard was already quite an honor.
Following the Imperial Guard, Long Yi boarded a fast airship, whose interior structure and operating principle were completely copied from Giant technology. Compared to the airships of the Human Realm, this one was faster and more stable.
Before long, through the airship’s portholes, Long Yi could see floating lands appearing in the distance, supported by huge arrays from underneath, and beams of magical light soaring into the sky around them, a sight that was indescribably cool to behold.
The airship descended, and Long Yi followed the Imperial Guard off.
"Where is that little girl Ai Lin?" Long Yi asked.
The eyes of the soldiers of the Imperial Guard twitched, as the affairs concerning Ai Lin had been kept strictly confidential. However, to casually call Ai Lin "little girl" was indeed something that made them feel uneasy. After all, Ai Lin was a Sanctuary Mage who had also defeated Jenna!
"Miss Ailin is resting, we will take you to your residence first,"
said a soldier.
"No need. There are many who have challenged me, and I am in a hurry. After I defeat her, I have another place to go," Long Yi waved his hand and said.
The corner of that soldier’s mouth twitched, but in the end, he said nothing. Clearly, Long Yi had the strength to be so arrogant.
"In that case, please rest for a moment at your residence; we will convey your request to Miss Ailin,"
Long Yi nodded, said nothing more, and followed the warrior to his new accommodation.
It was a luxuriously decorated villa, several grades higher than the small villa he had in the White Dragon Empire. When Long Yi settled in, servants immediately attended to him, and the place was filled with luxury and warmth.
On the other hand, the Imperial Guard also informed the Emperor of Long Yi’s request.
"In such a hurry?" the Emperor of The Divine Auffa Empire showed a smile on his face.
"Yes, he says there are many who have challenged him; he has another place to go after winning," the guard reported truthfully.
"Alright then, let’s commence the match immediately. I am quite eager to see what true strength our Miss Ailin really possesses!" the Emperor said with a smile.
On one side of the grand Imperial arena, the Emperor sat in the center with Mage August at his side; the three Crown Princes stood behind, followed by some related ministers.
The duel today was conducted in secret, with no one beyond these individuals being aware.
Before long, Long Yi entered the arena escorted by the Imperial Guard.
Everyone present basically knew the name of Long Yi. Recently, this character had become notorious for killing Jenna and had been hunted by many influential old mages across the Plane. However, remarkably, he had turned the tables and hunted down those old mages instead, killing wave after wave of Sanctuary Empire warriors sent to stop him. In the end, not a single one of the mages he pursued escaped. Some were decapitated by Long Yi, while others had to pay a heavy price for their lives. It was precisely because of this incident that the entire Plane was in uproar, making Long Yi’s name truly a household word.
And now, Long Yi was to face Ai Lin?
Although Ai Lin’s reputation was not as formidable as Long Yi’s, the ministers already held Ai Lin in very high regard, especially after her successful confrontation against Master August. Everyone believed that Ai Lin’s strength was definitely greater than what she had shown. This became particularly evident after her victory over Jenna.
Ai Lin was yet to appear, while Long Yi stood patiently in place.
Suddenly, a whooshing sound filled the sky, and Ai Lin, flapping her silver wings, slowly descended from the air, landing in front of Long Yi.
"You’re Ai Lin?" Long Yi asked.
"Yes, I am Ai Lin," she nodded.
"You’re really beautiful," Long Yi’s second remark left the audience speechless. This Long Yi sure had a way about him; that’s what he thought of first?
"Thank you, you’re quite handsome as well," Ai Lin responded.
"That’s just courtesy, mere courtesy!" the three Crown Princes muttered to themselves.
"However, even though you’re beautiful and have a perfect figure, you’re still no match for me," Long Yi said.
What’s with the ’perfect figure’ addition! Besides, what does her being beautiful and having a perfect figure have to do with whether she’s his opponent? The three Crown Princes could hardly believe it; was this the first time Long Yi had seen a beautiful woman?
