Capítulo 1381: Chapter 487: Thunderous News Shakes the World
The gains this ti are naturally dozens of tis greater than before.
What Chu Xisheng now needs to do is, with the fastest speed possible, to transform these Blood Essence Points into his own strength.
He then slightly frowns and opens his Martial Arts Treasure Vault.
Chu Xisheng hopes this Lifebound Divine Artifact can be a bit more effective, preferably generating sothing good in the upcoming ti.
※※※※
Just the day after Chu Xisheng returned to Xiushui County, at noon, Emperor Jianyuan arrived at the ‘Divine Illusion Temple’ north of Wang’an City.
His most beloved Imperial Concubine, Zhuang, spent most of her ti not in the palace, but secluded here, practicing magic.
When Emperor Jianyuan arrived in the air with his entourage, the nurous Daoists and sorcerers seed to have anticipated it, not only opening the mountain gate but also lighting sandalwood incense throughout the Divine Illusion Temple.
However, when Emperor Jianyuan landed, he still frowned.
He slled a strong scent of blood beneath the cover of the sandalwood.
Emperor Jianyuan then returned to his usual deanor, seemingly unconcerned, and walked into a large hall at the back of the Divine Illusion Temple.
This hall, ten zhang in both length and width, was quite spacious, yet only one person sat inside.
That was his Imperial Concubine, Zhuang.
She wore a simple Daoist robe, but her deanor was exceedingly enchanting and seductive—her black hair like a waterfall, eyebrows like erald feathers, skin like mutton fat jade, lips like cherries, eyes as clear as autumn water, full of myriad charms.
Emperor Jianyuan could not help but feel a surge of lust, yet he forcibly suppressed it.
With his hands behind his back, he strolled over casually and carelessly: “Has my beloved been waiting for here for a long ti?”
Zhuang looked up and t Emperor Jianyuan’s eyes, with a playful smile on her face: “I have been waiting here since morning. The battle of Thousand Stone Mountain shocked the world, so much so that I couldn’t continue my tranquil cultivation. But Your Majesty ca later than I expected.”
This Emperor of Daning was also more determined than she had imagined.
“I made so arrangents, hence the delay. Chu Fengge and his son really surprised this ti.”
Emperor Jianyuan naturally sat down beside Zhuang, wrapping his arm around her slender waist.
“Yet, where disaster lurks, there is opportunity; where opportunity lies, there is disaster. The previous few families would not help no matter how much I begged, but now that Chu Zheng has broken three of my arms, these people actively co to offer their help to stabilize my reign. Isn’t that laughable?”
Zhuang remained unmoved, pondering: “It has been confird to be Chu Fengge’s doing?”
“The State Preceptor is still investigating, rely inferring it to be related to Chu Fengge. After careful consideration, I sense there is no other possibility besides him.”
Emperor Jianyuan picked up a cup from the table next to him, but when he brought it to his face, he noticed that in the wine, there were tiny green insects moving around like threads.
Emperor Jianyuan frowned and put the cup down again.
“You should have guessed the purpose of my visit this ti, to borrow a few people, capable ones.”
“What do you an by capable? Like those on the Heavenly List? At the level of Suppressing Heaven?”
Zhuang sighed: “I’d love to help you, but clan affairs are not for to decide, and everything cos at a cost. My clan extending your longevity already matches the benefits you’ve given us.”
Emperor Jianyuan chuckled silently, slipping his hand inside Zhuang’s robe.
He rubbed and toyed absently: “Chu Zheng’s cultivation can peak at the Second Grade, which ans he can now practice the third and fourth forms of the Divine Intent Touch Death Blade; it’s said the third form of the Divine Intent Touch Death Blade was specifically created for your clan? If he becos another Blood Revenge, it won’t benefit you.”
Zhuang’s eyes turned cold: “Naturally, there’s no benefit, but at most, my clan can hide away for a few centuries. You can’t just say there’s no benefit and expect my clan’s experts to risk their lives for you.”
Emperor Jianyuan let out a silent laugh, lifting a bright yellow scroll onto the table in front of Imperial Concubine Zhuang.
This was an imperial edict, and it even bore a Cabinet proposal. After Imperial Concubine Zhuang read it for a mont, a glimr of delight erged in her eyes.
However, Zhuang hid it well. She pretended to nonchalantly set the edict aside: “This is not enough! I also want Ween Zhiyi’s Tai Chu Ice Wheel, and I need you to continue targeting the Formless Divine Sect. No matter what, the Formless Divine Sect must be destroyed!”
“The Formless Divine Sect? The Formless Divine Sect now has five individuals with super-grade combat power. To overthrow them, how could that be easy?”
Emperor Jianyuan laughed loudly, leaning back: “That depends on how much you’re willing to invest.”
Zhuang’s lips curled: “Several elders of my clan have initially broken free from the Human Emperor’s seal, they are condensing their avatars. At so point, they can personally assist you, besides—”
She glanced outside the hall and clapped softly.
In an instant, three insects flew in from outside the hall.
They were a Six-winged Golden Cicada, shimring with light and shadow; a pitch-black Single-Horned Immortal; and a Four-Ard Green Mantis, its body entirely verdant, with four sickle-like limbs.
Once these three insects flew in, their bodies transford, becoming three warriors of varying heights, with extrely hideous faces, respectfully half-kneeling in the hall.
Emperor Jianyuan looked at them, a hint of abnormal brilliance appearing in his eyes: “Six-winged Golden Cicada, Single-Horned Immortal Bag, Four-Ard Green Mantis, your clan is truly terrifying, able to seize and imitate even their powers! But my beloved, what I want is Zhen Tianlai, Bu Chaowu, and Zhu Xue.”
“I know.”
Just as Zhuang finished speaking, the faces and bodies of the three began to change, turning into the likenesses of Zhen Tianlai, Bu Chaowu, and Zhu Xue.
