Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2284: Chapter 2280: Excitement and Ecstatic Joy

Xiao Yi and Xia Canglan stood casually outside the Martial Arts Arena.

Xia Canglan glanced at Lu Yao and his companion walking slowly in the distance, then looked at Xiao Yi.

"Kid, these two young ones from the Ice Storm Sword Pavilion are highly renowned within the Endless Snow Mountain."

"The monstrous reputation and deeds of the two of them even surpass those of the Ice Barbarians."

"Naturally, wherever they go, they are incredibly dazzling, you..."

Xia Canglan seemed worried that Xiao Yi would care.

After all, Xiao Yi’s status was evident, and today’s events centered around him.

And a young man like Xiao Yi should probably care about standing out in such matters.

Xiao Yi gave a faint smile and interrupted, "I know."

As his words fell, Xiao Yi casually waited with his hands behind his back, his gaze calm without a ripple.

For an organization, the heavenly talents and prodigies within naturally draw a lot of attention.

For the young disciples, these outstanding senior brothers and sisters are idols they look up to and worship.

For the martial artists within the sect, seeing such excellent disciples achieving their heights at a young age evokes both self-pity and admiration.

And when a prodigy is exceptionally outstanding and terrifyingly talented, this attention escalates to blind worship.

Naturally, wherever Lu Lingxue and Lu Yao went, they became the endless focus.

When the two walked together, they immediately attracted everyone’s gaze; being disciples of the Sword Pavilion, they were not only legendary within the Endless Snow Mountain area but also in the Ice Emperor Palace.

Naturally, within the Ice Emperor Palace, martial artists and disciples alike were discussing endlessly, with continuous amazement.

However, for Xiao Yi, this was almost not worth even just glancing at again.

Several minutes later.

All the martial artists within the Ice Emperor Palace had arrived.

At the forefront of the Sect Square, the Four Great Guardians and various elders appeared one by one at this moment.

Swish... Swish... Swish... Swish...

The guardian elders instantly flashed to the center of the Sect Square from familiar places.

Everyone bowed in the direction of Xiao Yi.

"Would Master Xiao Yi please step onto the stage?" Xia Yifeng said respectfully.

"Kid, let’s go." Xia Canglan looked at Xiao Yi and said.

Xiao Yi nodded slightly, his figure flickering as he leaped to the center of the Sect Square, facing the elders and protectors.

Almost the instant Xiao Yi appeared, all the guardian elders slightly bowed, the gesture was small but the respect was evident.

Xiao Yi’s expression remained calm; he said little, only a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Things in this world are indeed fascinating.

A month ago, when he stood here, he was met with all sorts of difficulties and contemptuous words.

And today, all the guardian elders showed nothing but respect.

"What’s going on?" Suddenly, there was a wave of astonishment and doubt.

All the martial artists from the Ice Emperor Palace and the Ice Storm Sword Pavilion were shocked.

"Why are the protectors so respectful towards Master Xiao Yi?"

Around them, the sounds of astonishment and doubt were endless.

The uproar of over ten thousand martial artists caused a commotion.

Xia Yifeng took a step forward and gestured for silence with his hands.

Instantly, the uproar subsided, the chaos quieted, and all eyes were on the center of the square, awaiting Xia Yifeng’s words.

Xia Yifeng declared loudly, "From today, Master Xiao Yi will be the Palace Master of our Ice Emperor Palace."

Lu Long also stepped forward and announced, "And simultaneously, the Pavilion Master of our Ice Storm Sword Pavilion."

"What?" Instantly, the exclamations of shock and disbelief echoed loudly.

"How is this possible... Our Ice Emperor Palace has never had a Palace Master for countless years."

"Our Ice Storm Sword Pavilion has never had a Pavilion Master for countless years either."

"Now an outsider is to hold both the positions of Palace Master and Pavilion Master? How can this be possible?"

"Is Guardian Xia Yifeng joking?"

"Did I hear Guardian Lu Long wrong?"

Apart from these words of disbelief and exclamations, there were many words filled with anger.

"Xiao Yi, a young lad, what qualifications does he have to be our Palace Master?"

"Though his identity is special, he is not qualified to flaunt authority within our Ice Venerate Lineage..."

"Silence." A loud shout rang out as Guardian Bing stepped forward.

"The succession of Master Xiao Yi to the position of Palace Master of the Ice Emperor Palace, and Pavilion Master of the Ice Storm Sword Pavilion, was a matter agreed upon by the Four Great Guardians and all the elders."

After speaking, Guardian Bing glanced at Xiao Yi, with a look of flattery, as if asking if Xiao Yi was satisfied with his words.

At this moment, Xia Yifeng announced loudly, "To be precise, our Ice Emperor Palace has not been without a Palace Master for countless years, nor has the Ice Storm Sword Pavilion been without a Pavilion Master."

"The Ice Emperor Palace’s Palace Master and the Pavilion Master of the Ice Storm Sword Pavilion have always been the Ice Venerate Ancestor."

Around them, the uproar ceased, but expressions of astonishment and doubt remained.

No one questioned Xia Yifeng’s words.

The Palace Master of the Ice Emperor Palace and the Pavilion Master of the Ice Storm Sword Pavilion had always been their faith, the Ice Venerate Ancestor.

Xia Yifeng continued, "Master Xiao Yi, in the Ice Palace Fourth Floor, has obtained the complete inheritance of the Ice Venerate Ancestor, receiving approval from the Prohibition, which is also the Grandmaster’s approval."

"Is there any objection to Master Xiao Yi taking the position of Palace Master and Pavilion Master?"

The surrounding tens of thousands of martial artists instantly boiled.

"What? Obtained the complete inheritance of the Ice Venerate Ancestor?"

"The complete inheritance, which even the four ancestors could not obtain, is now with Master Xiao Yi?"

"Has someone finally completely obtained the Ice Venerate Lineage’s inheritance?"

Around, there were initially successive exclamations, but within seconds, there was an immediate outcry of unified joy.

"Great, fantastic."

"After millions of years of no one obtaining the Ice Venerate Inheritance, it can finally reappear on the continent."

"The mission of our Ice Venerate Lineage has finally been fulfilled by someone."

"The wishes of the four ancestors, can they finally be fulfilled by someone? The four ancestors in the underworld can smile with gratification, can’t they?"

Along with the cries of astonishment, there were sounds of joyful exclamations.

Some martial artists even teared up with extreme joy.

The Ice Emperor Palace, though divided into the Bing Family, the Nangong Family, and the Xia Family.

The Ice Emperor Palace, though it was a power.

What they acknowledged more was the Ice Venerate Lineage.

The three words, Ice Venerate, were faith to them.

The Ice Emperor Palace existed for over ten million years; while for millions of years, the desires, goals, and tasks of martial artists became a legacy flowing in the blood of all Ice Emperor Palace martial artists.

No wonder the tens of thousands of martial artists around were now so wild with joy, so inexplicably excited.

"We have no objections."

"Greetings, Palace Master."

"Greetings, Pavilion Master."

All the martial artists around paid homage in unison.

Only a few stood proudly, showing a cold expression.

"I have objections, I oppose." Suddenly, a discordant cold shout echoed through the venue.

"Hmm?" All Four Great Guardians and elders turned to the speaker.

All surrounding martial artists also turned their eyes in confusion towards the voice.

"Lu Yao?"

Yes, the one who voiced opposition was indeed Lu Yao.
