242: Chapter 241 A Hidden Murderous Intent 242: Chapter 241 A Hidden Murderous Intent “Not directly collapsing their Imperial Palace is already rciful of ,” Ye Xuan said with a smile.
These words imdiately caused Zhu Xiaofei, Xiao Zhan, and others to feel a bit ashad.
After all, it was the Lie Tian Heavenly Country’s Imperial Palace, the most fortified place in the entire Upper Country.
To bring this place down would be akin to stepping on the Lie Tian Heavenly Country’s very existence.
“The person your husband killed before was the Blood Hunting King of the Blood Killing Sect,” Zhou Youwei said with her lips slightly parted, her voice lodious and pleasing.
Upon hearing this, everyone present was abruptly stunned.
“The Blood Killing Sect, the Blood Hunting King?”
“Isn’t this guy a top killer who specializes in assassinating princes?
When was he killed by Big Brother?”
People were bewildered.
“Could it be that…” Tan Qingshan and Lv Xiuli seed to have realized sothing and their expressions subtly changed.
“The man from the Lie Tian Heavenly Country who was supposed to enter the Golden Pond, he died on the eve of its opening, is he the Blood Hunting King?”
Their gaze turned towards Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan rely smiled faintly and said in a gentle voice, “Indeed, it was him.”
“What!?”
Everyone gasped in shock.
The Blood Hunting King, a top assassin of the Blood Killing Sect known for killing princes, had a notorious reputation.
Yet, few had actually seen his face.
Perhaps it could be said that those who had seen him didn’t even know he was the Blood Hunting King!
They only knew that this man had hunted down over a thousand princes, his combat record bloody beyond compare.
This Blood Hunting King was actually killed by Big Brother?
All of this, they had no idea.
If Zhou Youwei hadn’t ntioned it out of the blue, they probably would have remained in the dark about this affair.
“Now you understand why I ca looking for their ancestor,” Ye Xuan said with a calm smile, his deanor unperturbed.
“The people of the Lie Tian Heavenly Country wanted to use the Blood Hunting King to kill Big Brother?!” The faces of Zhu Xiaofei and the others turned quite ugly.
They had previously thought that the Lie Tian Heavenly Country had not kicked them when they were down, a gesture of a gentleman’s conduct.
But now, it seed nothing like it.
Perhaps because their arranged killer was dead, the plan could not be carried out, which is why they hadn’t interfered when the five major forces moved against them.
Just thinking about this sent a shiver down their spines.
They had been completely in the dark about this.
They had assud that the Lie Tian Heavenly Country had simply lost a man, and hadn’t paid much attention to it.
Now, it all made perfect sense.
Beneath the calm surface lurked deadly intent!
“These guys claid they wouldn’t play tricks, but they’ve been doing this behind the scenes?” Xiao Zhan said angrily.
“Is Big Brother here to settle the score with the Lie Tian Heavenly Country’s ancestor?” Lv Xiuli looked at Ye Xuan, asking with a serious tone.
“Of course,” Ye Xuan nodded slightly and said, “I said before, if the Lie Tian Heavenly Country does not resort to tricks, then we can coexist peacefully, but since they did, they can’t bla .”
At these words, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
They knew that Big Brother was truly angry now.
“Exactly.
These people have been bullying our Emperor Immortal Sect every day.
It’s ti for Big Brother to teach them a lesson and give them a taste of their own dicine,” Zhu Xiaofei said, looking quite excited.
Hearing this, everybody also showed a hint of excitent.
“If Big Brother could obliterate that ancestor from the Ancient Yun Shang Country, then he can surely take down the Lie Tian Heavenly Country’s ancestor too!”
“Brother-in-law…” Zhou Bingyi looked at Ye Xuan, sowhat hesitant.
“What’s the matter, little girl?” Ye Xuan turned to Zhou Bingyi, smiling.
Zhou Bingyi looked hesitant, seemingly unsure whether to speak.
Everyone also turned their attention to Zhou Bingyi, filled with curiosity.
“It’s all family here, go on and say it,” Ye Xuan gestured for Zhou Bingyi to speak freely.
“Then I’m going to say it,” Zhou Bingyi confird.
“Mhm.” Ye Xuan nodded.
Zhou Bingyi took a deep breath and spoke in a low voice, “The Power of Heaven and Earth in my brother-in-law’s body has now completely dissipated, right?
You no longer have the strength you had at the Golden Pond Arena.”
“What?!”
Upon hearing Zhou Bingyi’s words, Zhu Xiaofei and the others’ faces changed.
Was she saying that Ye Xuan’s strength had dropped to only the Seventh Layer of the Daoist Platform?
Had he lost the strength he exhibited when he annihilated the ancestor from the Ancient Yun Shang Country?!
If that was indeed the case, wouldn’t their visit to the Imperial Palace be fraught with danger?!
“It looks like your gift has awakened,” Ye Xuan remarked in surprise.
Earlier on, he had sensed a distinct talent emanating from Zhou Youwei.
Now it seed that the talent had awoken.
Otherwise, Zhou Bingyi wouldn’t have known about the dispersal of his Power of Heaven and Earth.
“Big Brother, is that true?” Zhu Xiaofei and others asked with solemn expressions.
Ye Xuan gently nodded and confird, “Indeed, it has disappeared.”
The power he referred to had co from that piece of heaven and earth, and once he left the arena, he had collected all the Array Flags.
Now that he had co to the Lie Tian Heavenly Country’s Imperial Palace, those forces had naturally vanished.
“This…”
Everyone’s face was pale.
What should we do?!
“Brother Ye Xuan, I have already reported to Father Emperor,” Hua Yunfei entered from outside.
At the sound of his voice, everyone was startled and looked towards Hua Yunfei with sinking hearts.
Those words just now, Hua Yunfei must have heard them.
Thinking of this, their faces looked even worse.
“What now?”
Ye Xuan, however, appeared relaxed and natural as if he had not taken the matter to heart.
Hua Yunfei calmly said, “Father Emperor has gone to consult with the ancestors.
We should receive word before long.”
“Hmm,” Ye Xuan nodded slightly, saying nothing.
Hua Yunfei said nothing more.
Nobody else spoke either.
The whole hall grew oppressive with silence.
Zhou Bingyi, realizing her slip of the tongue, said no more and sat next to Zhou Youwei, sowhat restless.
She was no fool and knew well enough that Hua Yunfei might have heard their conversation.
That ant Hua Yunfei was aware that Ye Xuan was not as strong as before.
Therefore, they were likely to do sothing that would harm them.
At that thought, they all wanted to leave the place as quickly as possible.
However, when they looked at Ye Xuan, they saw he was composed, seemingly unconcerned with the situation.
This brought them so comfort.
Perhaps their senior brother still had other cards up his sleeve.
Now, that was the only thing they could hope for.
Ti slowly passed by.
After an incense stick had burned down,
“Your Highness,”
Soone outside the hall reported that the Human Emperor had sent word that Ye Xuan could go to see the ancestor Hua Tianqiong.
However, only Ye Xuan could go alone.
“Understood,” Hua Yunfei said aloud, motioning for the ssenger to withdraw.
“Brother Ye Xuan, what do you think?” Hua Yunfei looked at Ye Xuan and smiled.
“I shall go alone,” Ye Xuan slowly got up, hands in his pockets, calm and unhurried.
“Senior Brother!”
Now, everyone grew anxious.
Zhou Bingyi also abruptly stood up, looking quite concerned.
“We’ll wait for you here,” Zhou Youwei said softly, her beautiful eyes focused on Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan gave them a reassuring look and walked out with Hua Yunfei.
After Ye Xuan and Hua Yunfei had left, everyone’s expression was troubled.
If Hua Yunfei knew that the senior brother had restored his strength to the seventh layer of the Daoist Platform, given Hua Yunfei’s character, he would surely say sothing.
By then, those people might take actions against the senior brother!
“Senior sister, shouldn’t we notify the ancestor?” Lv Xiuli looked at Zhou Youwei and suggested.
Enveloped in Immortal Qi, with her ethereal beauty, Zhou Youwei spoke softly, “Emperor Immortal Sect is currently in battle, and the ancestor cannot be disturbed.”
“What?!”
At those words, everyone was shocked.
The Emperor Immortal Sect was in battle?!
Those who were already anxious now felt even more unsettled.
“Let’s just wait here patiently,” Zhou Youwei didn’t add more.
Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to wait as they were told.
anwhile, Ye Xuan was following Hua Yunfei to the deepest part of the Imperial Palace.
This was the Fiery Fire Divine Palace.
As soon as he stepped in, he felt the scorching energy flowing, making one feel as if in a blazing furnace.
At this mont, within the Fiery Fire Divine Palace, the monarch of Lie Tian Heavenly Country was already waiting.
“Father Emperor,”
Upon seeing the Human Emperor, Hua Yunfei bowed respectfully.
While bowing, Hua Yunfei quietly transmitted a ssage to the Human Emperor.
The Human Emperor’s expression subtly changed, and he said quietly, “You may step back.”
“Yes, Father Emperor,” Hua Yunfei responded respectfully, then turned to Ye Xuan and said in a low voice, “Brother Ye Xuan, I’ll wait for you outside.”
After speaking, Hua Yunfei stepped away.
Ye Xuan ignored Hua Yunfei and casually glanced at the Human Emperor, speaking slowly, “Where is Hua Tianqiong?”
“The ancestor will leave seclusion in half an hour.
My young friend, please wait for a mont,” the Human Emperor spoke softly.
