Another faction was Dragon Island, consisting of dragons aligned with the orderly camp.

Leading them was a towering dragon woman who, aside from the horns on her head, appeared entirely human.

Her power was remarkable, reaching level 68 in legend, just shy of the pinnacle at level 69.

Sensing Ji Chen scrutinizing her, the dragon woman frowned and gave him a fierce glare, her eyes burning like flames.

He raised an eyebrow, thinking she was quite bold.

Ignoring her, Ji Chen strode to the independent seat next to the central seat, sitting beside the elf Elin, amidst the astonished gazes of many representatives.

Before anyone else could speak, the dragon woman spoke up.

“Why can this human sit in that seat? Does he have the qualifications?”

It was worth noting that Elin, a highly skilled and powerful individual who had just returned, was sitting in the same row. She had achieved epic-tier strength in the Maple Empire on the Northern Continent.

However, this person appeared good-looking at most and seemed quite ordinary in all respects.

How could this representative from that human kingdom dare to behave so boldly?

On the Lienhardt seat, Monica, seeing Ji Chen becoming the target of criticism, clenched her fists, her face showing some worry.

Under the scrutiny of many eyes, Ji Chen’s calm demeanor actually earned him some admiration from the representatives of the human kingdom, but more were watching with amusement.

At this moment, Elin, who had been silent all along, finally spoke, saying lightly, “I believe Lord Ji Chen has the qualifications to sit with me.”

Upon hearing this, the representatives present suddenly widened their eyes.

Huh!?

What’s going on?

The dragon woman showed a hint of incredulity, but looking at Elin’s expression, she quickly realized something and closed her mouth immediately.

The Elf Queen, Laphia, said slowly, “Lord Ji Chen is an epic-tier powerhouse and the first to discover the demon’s intent to invade. I also believe he has the qualifications to sit here.”

Now their eyes widened even more, are you kidding me? A young epic-tier powerhouse? What did he eat to grow to gain such power?

As attitudes gradually changed, the gaze towards Ji Chen was no longer disdainful but rather mixed with respect and awe.

The principle of strength being respected was well exemplified at this moment.

Queen Laphia glanced at the quiet assembly and said solemnly, “The Elf Empire has invited you all here this time to discuss the matter of the demon invasion. Feel free to speak your minds.”

Soon, a representative from the human kingdom spoke up, “Your Majesty Laphia, is the matter of the demon invasion true?”

As soon as these words were spoken, many representatives nodded involuntarily, as this was exactly what they wanted to ask.

If it weren’t for the Elf Empire’s personal invitation, they would have thought it was just nonsense. How could the demons imprisoned in the depths of chaos escape under the gaze of the orderly gods?

Isn’t this ridiculous?

Laphia affirmed with unquestionable certainty, “Of course, it’s true.”

As she spoke, the crystal projection in the center of the hall displayed a scene, which was the record of Ji Chen leading the team to explore the Wood Elf’s mystic realm.

The perspective in the projection was like that of an elf soldier, recording everything from entering the realm, seeing the desolate land, the burnt villages, the withered vegetation, to the horrifying blood sacrifice array and mountains of corpses.

The sight of the pile of dead Wood Elf bodies caused a commotion in the hall.

The perspective quickly advanced, finding the sole survivor among the Wood Elves, Cindia, and then continued searching, discovering more blood sacrifice array corpses and finally the core of the blood sacrifice array.

The projection ended quickly, leaving behind a silent hall. After a moment, it seemed that everyone had finally recovered from the shocking scene.

All those in attendance were part of the organized faction. While they often experienced friction among themselves and had observed the savage actions of certain races, they had never before witnessed the sacrifice of tens of thousands of lives on such a scale.

Everyone could imagine that once those demons invaded comprehensively, it wouldn’t just have been the Wood Elves who suffered. Every race and kingdom would have been involved, and countless lives would have been lost.

No one wants to see the desolate land in that picture appear in their own kingdom.

Queen Laphia said, “Lord Ji Chen was the first to discover the demon’s intent to invade, and it was he who came all the way from the southern seas to inform me of this matter.”

All eyes in the room once again focused on Ji Chen as he slowly stood up.

He stood tall like a pine tree, with outstanding temperament.

Under the gaze of dozens or even hundreds of pairs of eyes, he remained calm and composed, with a peaceful heart.

If he were still on Earth, facing the gaze of so many different races, he would surely feel somewhat uneasy and anxious. But having experienced so much in this world and with his increasing strength, his state of mind had also elevated, showing no signs of anxiety.

He calmly began to recount his observations of the demons within the semi­sealed mystic realm in the southern seas, as well as the demon intelligence known to the city of Lienhardt.

As each piece of information was revealed, the understanding and impressions of the various forces and races towards the demons gradually became clearer.

The Five Demon Lords… Balzarna… Corruption… Demonized creatures…

Ji Chen looked at their suddenly enlightened expressions and shook his head quietly.

If Lainekel hadn’t provided him with information, he likely wouldn’t have known anything about the demons.
