Chapter 1754: Chapter 1444: She Probably Won’t Become an Immortal Venerate
Heavenly Splendor Hall.
Residence of the Qingyun Immortal King.
The Qingyun Immortal King was handling the matter of recruiting disciples from other sects.
At this moment, he had a booklet in his hand, which recorded which forces in the Southern Domain had sent people to the Heavenly Splendor Hall and which forces ignored the Immortal Order of the Heavenly Splendor Hall.
When the Qingyun Immortal King saw the words "Mysterious Moon Palace," he snorted coldly, thinking to himself that the Mysterious Moon Palace was probably on the verge of being destroyed by now.
However, just as he had this thought, a disciple entered and said, "Qingyun Steward, Guihai Immortal Monarch requests an audience."
The Qingyun Immortal King’s heart was filled with joy; could it be that the Blood Eagle Hall had already destroyed the Mysterious Moon Palace?
Thinking of this, the Qingyun Immortal King immediately said, "Enter."
As soon as the words fell, Guihai Immortal Monarch entered the Qingyun Immortal King’s study.
The Qingyun Immortal King was the first to speak, asking, "Is the Mysterious Moon Immortal King still alive? Did they escape or were they slain?"
Upon hearing the Qingyun Immortal King’s question, Guihai Immortal Monarch fell silent for a while. Seeing that Guihai Immortal Monarch did not immediately answer his question, the Qingyun Immortal King suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
The Qingyun Immortal King asked coldly, "What happened?"
If it were good news, Guihai Immortal Monarch would have spoken up immediately; he wouldn’t have shown such a worried expression. The Qingyun Immortal King realized at once that the Mysterious Moon Palace probably hadn’t been destroyed yet and something unforeseen had happened.
Guihai Immortal Monarch immediately replied, "The Blood Eagle Hall withdrew. They say that the current qi fortune of the Mysterious Moon Sect is too prosperous, and they are not the match of the Mysterious Moon Sect. They will only attack the Mysterious Moon Palace when its qi fortune weakens."
Hearing this, the Qingyun Immortal King’s face instantly darkened.
He then said coldly, "Useless fools!"
At this moment, the Qingyun Immortal King suddenly thought of something, and then asked, "Didn’t you say that the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty also agreed to join the Blood Eagle Hall in attacking the Mysterious Moon Palace? Do these two forces combined still can’t handle one Mysterious Moon Palace?"
Guihai Immortal Monarch said, "The Tianxia Immortal Dynasty got entangled with the Chiyan Sect, and after a defeat, the Blood Eagle Hall immediately chose to withdraw, and now even the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty is planning to retreat."
Hearing Guihai Immortal Monarch’s words, the Qingyun Immortal King’s expression became more unpleasant, "Evil Immortals really are unreliable!"
"They probably want more advantages."
The Qingyun Immortal King couldn’t believe that Blood Eagle Hall was no match for the Mysterious Moon Palace. In his view, even without the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty’s help, the Blood Eagle Hall alone could eliminate the Mysterious Moon Palace.
And now, the Blood Eagle Hall claimed they were not the opponent of the Mysterious Moon Palace. There was only one possibility: they thought since the Heavenly Splendor Hall also wanted to destroy the Mysterious Moon Palace, they could take this opportunity to demand more benefits from the Heavenly Splendor Hall; hence, they chose to retreat.
The thought that this group of Evil Immortals was trying to gain benefits from the Heavenly Splendor Hall made the Qingyun Immortal King want to eliminate the Blood Eagle Hall.
After pondering for a while, the Qingyun Immortal King said to Guihai Immortal Monarch, "You personally go to the Chiyan Sect and warn them that if they continue to ally with the Mysterious Moon Palace, the Heavenly Splendor Hall will destroy the Chiyan Sect directly."
"Additionally, go to the Blood Eagle Hall and ask what conditions those Evil Immortals want to continue attacking the Mysterious Moon Palace; my patience is limited."
Guihai Immortal Monarch said, "Disciple understands."
"Disciple takes leave."
As soon as the words fell, Guihai Immortal Monarch turned and left the Qingyun Immortal King’s study. Watching Guihai Immortal Monarch’s back, the Qingyun Immortal King said coldly:
"Once the Demon Emperor is dealt with, the Blood Eagle Hall needs to be taken care of as well."
Blood Eagle Hall was originally an Evil Immortal. In the eyes of the Qingyun Immortal King, having them work for him was already a great favor, yet these Evil Immortals did not do their jobs well and instead sought to benefit from the Heavenly Splendor Hall at this time.
If it weren’t for the fact that the Heavenly Splendor Hall was currently focusing all its efforts on the war with the Demon Emperor, he would undoubtedly report this to the Immortal Venerate and request troops to destroy the Blood Eagle Hall upon learning this news.
...
Yellow Leaf City.
Today above Yellow Leaf City, explosions were constant, with warships and Immortals continuously falling from the sky.
Lu Jing sat in the Meeting Hall of the City Lord’s Mansion, his face gloomy. So much time had passed, yet there was still no news from Guihai Immortal Monarch.
At this moment, a soldier entered the hall, "Your Majesty, this is the information we just received!"
As he spoke, the soldier presented the jade scroll with both hands, and as Lu Jing raised his hand, the jade scroll flew into his hand. Lu Jing then activated the jade scroll to read the information inside.
Upon learning that Guihai Immortal Monarch met the Demon Monkey Immortal Monarch and then "disappeared," Lu Jing was so furious that he used immortal power to crush the jade scroll instantly.
He then transmitted a message, saying, "Withdraw the army!"
In theory, after Guihai Immortal Monarch met with Demon Monkey Immortal Monarch, he should have informed him immediately if the Blood Eagle Hall had any other plans. However, since Guihai Immortal Monarch disappeared, it indicated that the Blood Eagle Hall likely had indeed withdrawn, and Guihai Immortal Monarch deliberately withheld the information, making the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty continue to drain the Chiyan Sect and the Mysterious Moon Palace.
With Lu Jing’s order, the warships of the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty began to retreat, leaving Yellow Leaf City.
At this moment, the Chiyan Immortal King stood on the deck of a warship, watching the departing warships of the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty, and remarked, "Allying with the Mysterious Moon Palace was the wisest decision we made."
An Immortal Monarch beside him said, "Indeed, who would have thought that after repelling the Blood Eagle Hall, the Mysterious Moon Palace could still support us? If the Hall Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace breaks through to the Immortal Venerate Realm, the situation in the Southern Domain might change."
At this moment, a voice suddenly resounded over the warship where the Chiyan Immortal King stood, "She probably won’t become an Immortal Venerate!"
The Chiyan Immortal King’s brows furrowed, and he immediately released his Immortal King’s aura, "Who is it!"
Before the Chiyan Immortal King could make a move, a man dressed in white slowly walked out of the space, stepping in the air to come in front of the Chiyan Immortal King’s warship.
Feeling that the other only had the aura of an Immortal Monarch, the Chiyan Immortal King slightly relaxed, and then he asked, "Who are you?"
Guihai Immortal Monarch said calmly, "Chiyan Immortal King, this is not the place to talk."
After all, the warships of the Mysterious Moon Palace were still nearby, and if they spoke here, their conversation might be overheard by those from the Mysterious Moon Palace.
The Chiyan Immortal King furrowed his brows slightly and then said, "Follow me."
As the words fell, the Chiyan Immortal King disappeared on the spot, and the Chiyan Immortal King and Guihai Immortal Monarch transformed into two streams of light, leaving the battlefield.
Before long, the Chiyan Immortal King returned to the Chiyan Sect. After arriving at the Chiyan Sect’s Meeting Hall, the Chiyan Immortal King asked again, "Would you tell me your identity now?"
Guihai Immortal Monarch said directly, "I come from the Heavenly Splendor Hall."
Upon hearing Guihai Immortal Monarch’s words, the Chiyan Immortal King’s mind froze.
After coming back to his senses, the Chiyan Immortal King quickly asked, "What orders does the Upper Sect’s special envoy have for the Chiyan Sect?"
Guihai Immortal Monarch said blandly, "Chiyan Immortal King, your Chiyan Sect is in great danger and you are unaware."
