As the sound faded, the room, which was originally slightly dim, suddenly brightened as soone turned on the lights.
Jian Ruyan stood at the doorway, sizing up everyone inside the room.
Indeed, there were already a few familiar faces there.
San Liu and Naless from Slaughter Redemption, the old priest from Brilliant Divine Authority, Reinhardt.
And also Lucifer, the new leader of Fallen Splendor, whom she had only seen in photos and had never t in person!
The person who had just risen to his feet and spoken was a young man whom Jian Ruyan did not recognize.
He must be from one of the other organizations.
The young man glanced at Sheng Rulai and Jian Ruyan and said, "Of course, before the eting starts, I think it's necessary for us to introduce ourselves, since so of us have never t before. So... let start. My na is Le Le, representing Paradise Lost."
San Liu stood up with a grin, saying, "I am San Liu, representing Jinyu Mantang."
"Jinyu Mantang? What organization is that?" soone asked in surprise and confusion. "Weren't you an assassin from Slaughter Redemption?"
San Liu explained, "Oh, that was in the past. Later, we were taken over, and now our organization has changed its na."
"How shaful," Ren Xiaoyao comnted with a curl of his lip, his gaze full of disdain.
San Liu, however, was indifferent to the disdain of others but silently noted Ren Xiaoyao in his blacklist. If the opportunity arose to strike, he wouldn't mind taking the old man's life.
After San Liu sat down, a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses stood up and introduced himself, "My na is Li Yaotong, representing Omniscient."
At this announcent, everyone gave him a few more looks.
After all, those from Omniscient were always elusive, and it was quite rare to see one in person.
Li Yaotong didn't say much, just introduced his identity and then sat down imdiately.
Next was a muscular middle-aged man. His muscles were knotted, and he was a towering two ters twenty tall. Sitting here, he exuded an imnse sense of oppression.
The man got up and simply introduced himself, "Dante, Withered Tree Quest for Spring."
Upon hearing this, the crowd also gave him a few more glances, and then looked at Jian Ruyan again. Not only because of his extraordinary physique but also because Withered Tree Quest for Spring was recently being furiously hunted by Dragon King Hall.
However, this Dante, based rely on the aura he exuded, was undeniably of Half-Step Divine Realm strength. Since he had never revealed his power in public, no one knew whether he had indeed beco a man-made god under the transformation of Withered Tree Quest for Spring.
Jian Ruyan, noticing everyone looking at her, realized what they were thinking, but as Dragon King Hall was in a weaker position, she kept silent and said nothing.
Then, a handso man with pale skin and crimson lips, wearing a tailcoat and sitting with crossed legs while tapping on the table, said with a faint smile, "I, Lucifer, represent Fallen Splendor."
An old man in a white clerical robe stood up and said, "Reinhardt, Brilliant Divine Authority."
Sheng Rulai followed, "Buddha's Light Shines Everywhere, Sheng Rulai."
With a shrug, Ren Xiaoyao found it all rather boring, but since everyone else had introduced themselves, he felt it wouldn't be right to be the exception. So he said, "Way of Nature, Ren Xiaoyao."
Jian Ruyan saw that everyone had finished introducing themselves and then she also spoke, "Dragon King Hall, Jian Ruyan."
Hearing Jian Ruyan's words, Dante from Withered Tree Quest for Spring let out a cold laugh and said, "Hmm? Why has your Dragon King Hall only sent a little girl who has reached Energy Transformation? Where did the New Dragon King, who was chasing our main culprit, go not long ago?"
Jian Ruyan replied indifferently, "He was unable to co due to so issues."
"He couldn't co, so you only sent an Energy Transformation Warrior?" Dante said disdainfully, "Look at Jinyu Mantang, although they have fallen, they still sent two Energy Transformation..."
"Alright, no need for such nonsense," Le Le from Paradise Lost interrupted Dante, "Put your personal grievances aside for now. The urgent matter is how to resolve the current dark chaos."
Dante huffed when Le Le spoke and didn't pursue the matter further.
It seed that he held a certain level of wariness toward this Le Le, perhaps having been at a disadvantage against her in the past.
San Liu spoke up, "We have only nine organizations here now, isn't there also Heavenly Palace? Shouldn't we wait for them to co?"
Le Le explained, "Heavenly Palace operates in another space folded away from Earth; they won't handle our affairs, so there's no need to wait for them. They won't co."
"Fine," San Liu shrugged his shoulders.
Seeing no further objections from the crowd, Le Le turned to the man wearing sunglasses, Li Yaotong, and said, "The terrifying darkness that recently devoured many towns, we have little to no information about it. Omniscient is claid to be aware of all the world's secrets, can you tell us what that darkness is?"
Li Yaotong nodded upon hearing this and said, "Regarding the source of that darkness, because it is too horrifying, our Heavenly Eye couldn't gather much information. We only know that it was originally confined in a sealed world, until the balance was recently disrupted, allowing it to be released."
"Beyond that, I'm not sure," Li Yaotong shook his head.
Jian Ruyan's heart tightened at his words.
The others also wanted to ask who exactly broke the balance and released such a terrifying demon?
However, the words that Li Yaotong imdiately followed with made them montarily forget their question.
"At present, the demon that controls great terror has established so sort of strange balance with the person it's possessing; just like the video shows, the dark mass shrinking. So for the ti being, the demon won't pose a threat to humanity. Our imdiate concern is not to find the demon, whose threat is minimal at the mont, but to deal with the uncontrollable demons that have escaped into the world following the darkness!"
"What, there are demons that have escaped?!"
The crowd couldn't help exclaiming upon hearing Li Yaotong's words.
The demon that caused desolation for thousands of miles, leaving no grass growing, its danger had been witnessed by everyone. Hearing that there were several completely out-of-control demons, how could they not be shocked?
The demon was already contentious with humans, and the situation was dire. The effects of completely out-of-control demons were utterly imaginable.
The world might be beyond saving.
Li Yaotong said calmly, "Don't be too worried, the demon that is bound is the strongest. These uncontrollable ones vary in danger, but none are even a tenth as powerful as the primary demon. We still have hope of confining the demons..."
"Only after we manage to confine the demons wreaking havoc on humanity, can we then possibly spare the effort to confront the primary demon."
"Next, I will ntion the demons I currently know of that pose a significant threat..." Latest content publıshed on ⓝovelFire
