Chapter 200.2: The Fortune Teller
Outside the Ancestral Land, a dark-skinned, burly man stood. He seemed fierce and intimidating. "Is everyone here?”
A pair of twin sisters, both ancient gods, stood a bit farther away.
The elder sister looked toward the gray, misty land ahead. "One person is still missing."
More than a dozen ancient gods had gathered here. They were either the guardians of the Ancient Clan or unknown ancient gods who had entered the Ancestral Land through the clan’s channels. The ancient gods stood in small clusters, clearly unfamiliar with one another.
The younger twin swept her gaze across everyone, finally landing on a man in white robes. "Looks like Yan Xi's cultivation has improved. He even brought three attendants this time."
Almost none of them brought attendants. After all, they could barely protect themselves in the Ancestral Land. Bringing attendants was essentially sending them to their deaths.
Who knew what they would face inside. The condition could change in an instant. The gods, refusing to treat their attendants as mere expendable scouts, seldom brought them at all. Those who did usually had attendants stuck at peak Violet Palace. They came hoping to find supreme treasures in the Ancestral Land. Some treasures, once removed, could only exist for less than a hundred seconds. Hence, they had to bring their attendants along.
Yan Xi glanced at the younger twin, his gaze carrying an inscrutable meaning. "I only broke through to Second Step by luck. Even here, I can only cling to life."
Hearing that Yan Xi had reached Second Step to Heaven, the dozen or so ancient gods turned to look at him. That realm had already placed him above the rest.
Just then, the older twin frowned slightly, then relaxed. "It seems like Yan Xi is quite confident this time."
After a few polite exchanges, no one spoke further.
The older twin then sent a voice transmission to her sister. "Yan Xi's situation is not good."
