Where there is war, there is destruction.
Accompanied by countless sacrifices.
Even Yang Yan openly admitted that he might sacrifice himself in this war, let alone others.
In other words, regardless of the outco of this war that determines the fate of humankind, those sitting here today may cease to exist.
Everyone implicitly understands this.
Under such circumstances, it's a wonder if the atmosphere at this banquet can be good!
For this, Yang Yan also feels pretty uncomfortable.
However, he is not the kind to dwell on sorrow.
So he adjusted his mood and t everyone's gaze with a smile, saying:
"Why are you all staring at ? It's rare to have such a big table of people gathered together for a al, everyone should be a bit happier! Just give so face."
Zhou Hanyun, quick on the uptake, got up first to play the role of the hostess, chiming in:
"Yes, yes, yes! You all know Yang Yan's character, it's his first ti hosting a banquet."
"It's rare that he has such a thoughtful mont, everyone, don't let him down!"
With her leading the way and Yang Yan's usual easygoing style, the banquet atmosphere gradually ward.
Then Fuzze and Juechen, those two lively spirits, rolled up their sleeves to settle the dispute over a pork knuckle on the nearby empty ground, even shouting for everyone to be the judges.
Thus, the two fat ones by the side of the banquet ended up wrestling together.
Although they called it a duel, their bulky figures looked more like a playful brawl, reminiscent of sumo wrestling from a small island country.
Good grief!
Under the passionate performance of these two jokers, the banquet atmosphere beca thoroughly lively.
For now, everyone put aside their worries and laughed heartily.
Then, Qiye and Lei Ming, the two young ladies, also volunteered to showcase their recent learnings.
With soone volunteering to perform at the banquet, Yang Yan was all for it.
For this, he even directly used the Power of Laws to create an arena.
With the addition of Power of Laws, there was no worry that they would affect the surrounding flowers and plants with their abilities.
Therefore, the two young ladies let loose inside, showcasing their ultimate skills and fighting heartily.
Lei Ming was quite mischievous.
Halfway through the fight, she suddenly leapt out from the Laws barrier, saying she was hungry, grabbed a chicken leg, then went back in to tussle with Qiye.
Under Yang Yan's intentional guidance, no one ntioned any unhappy topics midway.
It was clear that everyone cherished and enjoyed the warm atmosphere of this banquet.
Because everyone knew that once this banquet ended, the next gathering might be filled with sadness and regret.
There might even be a chance that this was their last gathering together.
Recently, as Yang Yan, one of the Four Emperors, released the news of an impending invasion by the Demon Race from beyond, it was like a deep-sea bomb, causing a great upheaval in both the Hidden World and the present world.
The Eastern Influence sects of the Hidden World called back disciples who were out training.
They even set aside previous grudges among factions and ford a powerful Demon Suppression Alliance.
Many scattered independent warriors, upon hearing the news, were also unwilling to be outdone.
Called together by those with intent, these lone wolves, used to roaming free, gathered into a formidable force and declared their joining of the Demon Suppression Alliance.
Although they were uniting for the common goal of fighting the invaders, it was inevitable that so minor troubles would arise.
For instance, when such a big crowd from all over gathers to form an alliance, there needs to be soone in charge to lead, right?
Initially, several major factions suggested a joint council thod to establish an alliance advisory board.
But soon so people beca dissatisfied, stepping forward to criticize the advisory board for being monopolized by people from major faction sects, which was unfair to others.
Even though these big sect factions were powerful, they couldn't withstand the opposition from so many voices, hence the advisory board was temporarily canceled.
Yet no country can be without leadership for a day, and against the fierce external Demon Race, a leaderless alliance is no better than a scattered group.
Consequently, for the first ti, the Hidden World held a democratic vote.
Among the Four Emperors, Moonlight Yang Yan erged as the most favored candidate to lead the alliance.
As the issuer of the Demon Race invasion alert, he is currently the person most knowledgeable about the Demons.
Coupled with his status as one of the Four Emperors and his seemingly limitless mysterious power, he was undoubtedly the best choice to lead the alliance against the Demon Race.
Sothing like this would have been straightforwardly refused by Yang Yan in the past.
After all, such work is effortful and thankless, not sothing he'd usually be interested in.
But given that it's a matter of human survival, he couldn't act solely on personal whims, so he accepted the role.
However, as the alliance leader, he only oversees the war against the Demon Race, without interfering in any other internal affairs of the alliance.
In the present world, senior officials from Huaxia proactively reached out to Yang Yan, willing to provide whatever help they could muster.
According to statents from the senior ranks, they were even prepared to clear out the country's stockpile of nuclear weapons if needed.
Yang Yan did not refuse them, accepting all these missiles and nuclear weapons without hesitation.
The damage caused by these technological weapons is sufficient to threaten the Demon Race, and their broad blast range is very useful.
However, compared to the eager response from the Eastern Influence, Western and Northern European forces remained much calr.
anwhile, so forces in South Arica began to stir, gradually making contacts with the Eastern Alliance.
But overall, outside the Eastern Alliance, major forces sent a few delegations but took no further action.
They maintained an attitude of indifference, keeping their distance, and remained in a state of observation.
Yang Yan couldn't be bothered dealing with these dispatched envoys, having arrangents made for their accommodation and als without even eting them face-to-face.
Anyway, according to his plan, soon these foreign entities will realize the crisis.
If they continue with their indifferent attitude, there's nothing he can do about it.
The scale of the Demon Suppression Alliance's formation was huge; at the request of major sect factions, a grand inauguration ceremony was organized for Yang Yan.
Human history is essentially a lengthy chronicle of wars.
History teaches us that morale is crucial in warfare.
Yang Yan couldn't avoid the customs and took advantage of this opportunity to issue a pre-war declaration.
The ceremony was held at Ten Thousand Ridges Peak of the Kunlun Sect in the Hidden World.
As Yang Yan ascended to the high platform at the peak, looking down, he saw a crowd so dense it was re heads below.
So stood floating in the air, others rode various strange Exotic Beasts, and so crossed the skies on sword control.
However, though they floated in the air, not one surpassed the height of Ten Thousand Ridges Peak.
This was a show of respect for Yang Yan, the soon-to-be alliance leader and a Celestial Dao List Emperor Titled Powerhouse.
For this ceremony, while not guaranteeing everyone from the Eastern Hidden World showed up, those who didn't co were not many.
Even though Yang Yan was experienced and knowledgeable, it was his first ti witnessing such a scene, filling his heart with a long-lost sense of excitent.
