After tonight’s official announcent by Unrivaled City, the city will also coordinate with Black Wind Village and many Eight Desolate Disciples to mobilize all forces, hidden spies, and inside operatives in the Divine Martial Country, Qin State, Han Country, and other Three Kingdoms to collectively strike at the World Association.
With the 30% profit promised by Jiang Dali as a return, Dugu Yifang will undoubtedly not slack off.
And among the joint cooperation details between the two sides, there is a clause regarding the potential threat of the Blood Transformation Divine Sovereign’s Dharma Body Puppet at the edge of Unrivaled City’s jurisdiction.
As an ally, Jiang Dali must eliminate the Blood Transformation Divine Sovereign’s Dharma Body Puppet for Unrivaled City.
This additional condition originally required Jiang Dali to resolve it within the next three months, without the need to solve it right at this critical mont.
However, Xiong Ba’s whereabouts are still unknown.
Although the skirmishes between Black Wind Village and the World Association’s minions are about to break out, there isn’t much need for him to personally deal with formidable enemies at the mont. Solving a Blood Transformation Divine Sovereign’s Dharma Body Puppet along the way isn’t much trouble, especially since it benefits him without any harm.
"I hope there are enough Divine Fragnts hidden inside the Blood Transformation Divine Sovereign to satisfy . The Blood Transformation Divine Sovereign is truly a good man, considered the largest leek outside of the Players."
Jiang Dali rode the Demon Hawk, diving swiftly downwards, quickly spotting a large city on the distant plains.
That large city spanned hundreds of miles, dotted with nurous towns and villages.
From a high altitude, it looked like small squares scattered under the setting sun, with many inhabitants.
Such a densely populated city should have been incorporated into Unrivaled City’s sphere of influence, but due to the presence of the Blood Transformation Divine Sovereign’s Dharma Body Puppet, it beca a chaotic lawless zone.
For Jiang Dali, who could easily destroy the Blood Transformation Divine Sovereign’s Dharma Body Puppet now, it’s a formidable enemy that even Dugu Yifang, the Unrivaled City Lord, needs to pay attention to. But the true threat that worries Dugu Yifang is still the real Blood Transformation Divine Sovereign.
However, Jiang Dali has long been at odds with the Blood Transformation Divine Sovereign, having personally eliminated three of his disciples, swallowing their Divine Fragnts, so he naturally doesn’t worry much.
...
At this mont.
In a place where no one would think to look, behind a huge Iron Gate, an Overlord capable of stirring the Martial World with a single hand was residing with a heavy treasure full of natural essence.
This is a Lake Heart Small House, an escape from the disputes of the Martial World.
Though there are many such serene small houses in the world, for Xiong Ba, this is his only remaining ho in the world—a secluded Peach Blossom Spring for a father and daughter.
Amidst the shimring waters, Xiong Ba sat in the shadow of a large tree by the lake, quietly watching the flowing spring, looking at his young daughter You Ruo who was frolicking on a boat in the heart of the lake. At this mont, his solemn broad face finally showed a bit of human expression.
From this, it can be seen that even though he is a ruthless Overlord in the Martial World, there is still a trace of family affection in his heart.
He seldom returns here, only because he doesn’t want his enemies in the Martial World to know he has such a daughter and where she lives, as it is his only remaining weakness.
The natural reaction to a weakness is, of course, to hide and protect it well, and Xiong Ba is no exception.
His wife died early, and apart from the adopted son Long Teng he took in his early years, he has no other blood relatives, only one daughter "You Ruo," who is still young and is surely a treasure in his heart, isn’t she?
This is probably the other thing he cares about, apart from his ambition of a Thousand-year empire.
Now, sitting in this tranquil place, enjoying the laughter of his young daughter You Ruo, he feels an unprecedented urgency.
All along, he pursued endless ambition with his finite life, day in and day out, never tiring or slackening, not caring whether his ambitions would last for eternity, for being an Overlord for a lifeti is enough for him.
But now, an unprecedented crisis has arrived.
Even though he is in this isolated Lake Heart Small House, he is not entirely oblivious to the outside world.
Nine days ago, a Divine General appeared in Zhonghua Pavilion, fought a battle with its owner, and retreated.
Three days ago, the forr Martial Arts Legend Wu Ming arrived at the World Association, asked for the Divine Stone but received nothing, fought three moves with his father, seriously injured him, and then floated down the mountain. He is still being sought.
Today at noon, the Black Wind Village Chief Jiang Dali suddenly arrived in Unrivaled City, was greeted into the city by Unrivaled City Lord Dugu Yifang, and only left half an hour ago.
Such various pieces of information are like piercing alarms, warning Xiong Ba that the World Association is facing an unprecedented crisis, and a slight misstep could end his ambition.
And the only hope now lies with the coveted Divine Stone he holds.
He spread his broad palm.
Imdiately, a dazzling beam of light appeared from the Divine Stone in his palm. On the surface of the Divine Stone, several "卍" Buddha’s Curse symbols flashed frequently, casting an uncertain shadow on his broad face.
"Shaolin!"
Xiong Ba’s eyes turned grim, closed them slowly, and clutched the Divine Stone tightly in his palm, as if he wanted to hold his destiny in his hand. His mind involuntarily recalled the comnt that had influenced his life.
"A golden scale is not a thing in the pond; it transforms into a dragon when it encounters the wind and cloud!"
Now, he has not yet controlled the Feng Yun, but has already possessed the Divine Stone.
Is this the reason for the approaching crisis?
If he had obtained the Divine Stone after mastering the Feng Yun, would he be able to sweep across the world?
But now, instead of getting entangled in gains and losses, it’s better to firmly believe that man can conquer heaven, yet his very existence is Heavenly Destiny. If he believed that man can conquer heaven, wouldn’t that be denying himself?
Xiong Ba’s mind was filled with tangled notions, and imaginary enemies flashed through his mind.
"Immortal God of God-searching Palace!"
"Wu Ming!"
"Black Wind Village Chief Jiang Dali!"
"Unrivaled City Lord Dugu Yifang!"
And...the mysterious state of the Demon Master Pang Ban...
These formidable enemies swiftly passed through his mind.
Suddenly, a faint yet arrogant laugh erupted, and words reached Xiong Ba’s ears.
"Hehehehehe, hehehhehehe...Xiong Ba, are you distressed and restless now? You bear the Heavenly Destiny, yet you are forced into such dire straits by re mortals without Qi Fortune. Truly laughable, so laughable, hahaha."
"Hmm?"
Xiong Ba’s eyebrows arched, suddenly opening his stern eyes, focusing his Power on his ears, listening to movents from all directions, his heart already harboring a killing intent.
At that mont, the arrogant voice resounded again.
"Xiong Ba, don’t fret, don’t fear, hehe. I, your ancestor, an no harm to you. I detest those who bully others with superior numbers, so I helped you deal with so enemies.
You don’t need to worry about my good grandson giving you trouble, hahaha. How about I, your ancestor, also helping you lift the seal on the Divine Stone?
Allowing you to achieve your ambition of a Thousand-year empire, to unify the Martial World?"
Xiong Ba’s heart contained doubt and an even stronger killing intent grew. Seeing You Ruo still playing in the heart of the lake, and the Hidden Guards around appearing not to have heard the other’s words, he knew this person’s Power had reached an unfathomable Realm, capable of transmitting sound solely to his ears, creating a strange feeling in his heart.
It felt as if the other had transford into thousands, existing in different places at once, encircling him heavily, speaking through these different locations.
Xiong Ba’s face turned grim, eyes widening towards overhead, transmitting the sound of his Primordial Spirit, "Stop with your tricks! Who are you? Show yourself!"
"Hehehe, you don’t need to know who I am! If you knew who I was, it would frighten you to death.
You only need to know...I will help you, help you weather this storm, and don’t need your thanks, because I simply enjoy watching you little ones fight, it’s fun, hahahaha, that’s what makes it fun... fun..."
"Insolent!"
Xiong Ba suddenly stood up, just about to leap, when he noticed an astonishing Power suddenly strike towards You Ruo in the heart of the lake, causing him to erupt in fury...

(I’ll go out for dinner and drinks shortly, and aim to update another Chapter late tonight)
