423: Chapter 423 Suppressing the Three Elders, Infiltrating the Poison Sect
"A friend?"
Xie Fei murmured, waving his hand at an elder behind him, who nodded and left.
Hun Tiandi was not at all reserved, sitting directly in the main seat and smiling at the nervous crowd in the great hall.
"Sit!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xie Fei and the elder bowed. The information contained within the Blood Spirit Seal had left everyone astonished.
This young Emperor had actually established a dynasty in the Black-Corner Region, with numerous experts under his command and excellent troops.
Xie Fei fell into deep thought. Although the Myriad Scorpion Gate had some reputation in the Izumo Empire,
it had begun to decline after the death of the sect's ancestor. Although he had managed to maintain it and restore some of its vitality,
the relentless pressure from the Poison Sect made Xie Fei feel immense strain.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the poison fog defense has been deactivated!" an elder said respectfully.
"Not bad! Have a taste!"
Hun Tiandi flicked his sleeve, and bottles of Spirit Wine from his storage ring landed in front of the crowd, who looked on in confusion.
"This... is this Spirit Wine?" one of the elders exclaimed.
Opening the lids, a rich aroma of wine spread throughout the hall. After taking a sip, pure energy dispersed, healing the injuries sustained from the previous martial conflict.
The pain vanished, and the Fighting Qi within their bodies increased significantly.
Just then, at the foot of Myriad Scorpion Mountain, six figures sped toward the summit.
Everywhere they passed was littered with bleached bones. This scene of slaughter left the three Poison Sect Elders and the three Poison Sect elders behind them looking horrified.
"Is this... the work of a devil?" the Second Elder asked with a trembling voice.
"Hmph, by now, that youth and the Myriad Scorpion Gate must be mutually exhausted. We have come to clean up the mess!"
The Fifth Elder said grimly. The blood feud of his brothers had to be avenged.
Swish!
The six figures sped over, the air exploding wherever they passed.
"They're here..."
In the great hall, Hun Tiandi, who was drinking, had already released his soul power to perceive them. Sensing the six figures approaching, a smile appeared on his lips.
"Your Majesty..." Xie Fei asked, puzzled.
"People from the Poison Sect!" Hun Tiandi said indifferently.
"Xie Fei, come out and hand over that youth to us..." The voices of the three Poison Sect Elders rang out from the plaza.
"Poison Sect scum, you dare to intrude upon the Myriad Scorpion Gate!" Xie Fei roared in anger. He sped toward the plaza, a fierce burst of energy erupting from him.
Taking the elders of the Myriad Scorpion Gate with him, he began to fight them.
Boom!
Fighting Qi burst forth. Smoke swirled like lightning as they clashed. Roaring sounds were constant, and shockwaves swept out. Everyone in the Myriad Scorpion Gate cultivated poison Fighting Qi.
Both sides erupted into a great battle. Hun Tiandi did not intervene; this was a test for Xie Fei and his people.
Subjugating the Myriad Scorpion Gate would make it easier to conduct business in the Izumo Empire.
In the sky, surging Fighting Qi erupted, creating immense pressure. Afterimages flew everywhere, and the resulting ripples of energy battered the surroundings.
The plaza became chaotic, with energy constantly exploding.
Beams of differently colored Fighting Qi swept across the area, and the sounds of slaughter soared into the sky.
Half an hour later, the three Poison Sect Elders and the three Poison Sect elders behind them were forcefully suppressed by Xie Fei and his group.
They were dragged into the great hall.
Hun Tiandi sat on the main seat, drinking Spirit Wine, completely unaffected by the battle outside.
"You..." The three Poison Sect Elders were stunned; this youth was actually unharmed.
"Xie Fei, you submitted to this devil?" the Second Elder shouted angrily.
"His Majesty favored us, and the entire Myriad Scorpion Gate submitted willingly!" Xie Fei smiled, though only he knew how that submission had really come about.
"I, your Emperor, give you two choices: submit or die!"
Hun Tiandi said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Xie Fei's mouth twitched violently; it sounded too familiar!
"Don't even think about it! I am a person of the Poison Sect in life, and I will be a ghost of the Poison Sect in death!" a Poison Sect elder shouted angrily.
"Fine, I will grant your wish. Do it!" Hun Tiandi said indifferently.
Xie Fei's expression darkened. He slammed his palm onto the Poison Sect elder's skull. With a bang, it exploded, and he died on the spot.
This brutal method shocked everyone.
A phantom soul force surged out. With a thought, a green soul sword tore through the air, completely annihilating the Poison Sect elder's soul.
On the Fighting Qi Continent, if one lost their physical body, there were naturally ways to refine a new one.
However, once the soul was annihilated, there was no chance left.
"You have ten breaths..." Hun Tiandi said coldly. His calm words carried the call of the netherworld grim reaper.
"We are willing to submit!" The three Poison Sect Elders and the remaining two elders exchanged glances and smiled bitterly.
"Very good. Open your souls, do not resist!"
Immediately, he planted the Blood Spirit Seal on the five of them and passed on some rules.
"Your subordinates pay respects to Your Majesty!" the Poison Sect elders said respectfully.
"Rise!" Afterward, he released the Poison Sect elders, who looked utterly hopeless, having realized the terror of the Blood Spirit Seal.
If they had known that the soul restriction was so terrifying, they would have preferred death over becoming slaves.
However, it was all too late.
With the five Dou Huang experts and six Dou Wang experts of the Myriad Scorpion Gate, plus the five Dou Huang experts from the Poison Sect, Hun Tiandi's foundation in the Izumo Empire was established in an instant.
He gave the five people from the Poison Sect some instructions and methods for future contact.
Then, he ordered them to infiltrate the Poison Sect and wait for Hun Tiandi's commands.
Afterward, the Five Elders of the Poison Sect left.
In the manor!
"Why is there still no news from His Majesty?" Liu Ling asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, Elder Liu. Young Master's strength is also very great!" Qing Yue had great faith in Hun Tiandi; he would not give up regardless of any difficulties.
Hearing this, Liu Ling nodded gently.
Since following Hun Tiandi, everything he had done had exceeded Liu Ling's expectations.
The Imperial Palace!
"Reporting to the Emperor, Myriad Scorpion Mountain has returned to calm. We do not know the outcome, but our people still cannot infiltrate it!"
A scout reported.
"You may go!" the Emperor of Chuyun said indifferently.
"Imperial Brother, do you suspect there has been some change?" the general asked, puzzled.
"I cannot rule out that possibility!" The Emperor of Chuyun's expression was cold, his gaze deep as he looked into the distance.
Dazheng Empire, Star Palace!
The Blood Shadow Clone was reviewing memorials. They were piled high on the desk, with Li Jingzhong, General Ye Wudi, Yun Xiao, and Mr. Corpse Soul standing in front.
"The plan can begin. Lay out the layout for the Izumo Empire and the Tianshe Empire. I want to swallow both empires in one bite and unify the Northwest Continent!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The three legion commanders accepted the order. Once the order was given, the Dazheng Empire began to mobilize.
Streams of information and intelligence began to spread frantically in all directions.
Afterward, under the arrangement of the Blood Shadow Clone, the Dou Zong-level experts of the Dazheng Empire followed the three legion commanders to protect their safety.
"You may go!" the Blood Shadow Clone said.
"Your subject takes his leave!" After the three left, the Blood Shadow Clone said, "Li Jingzhong, summon Elder Green Snake here!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Jingzhong left the Star Palace.
Before long, Elder Green Snake arrived at the Star Palace and said respectfully, "Your subject, Green Snake, pays respects to Your Majesty!"
"Rise!" the Blood Shadow Clone smiled.
"I wonder, Elder Green Snake, are you accustomed to living in the Dazheng Empire?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. This subject is doing very well!" Elder Green Snake smiled.
"I summoned you here this time because I would like your help. You come from the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, so you must be very familiar with the Tianshe Empire!"
The Blood Shadow Clone asked.
"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Serpent Mansion is a power in the Northwest Continent that controls half of the Tianshe Empire and rules alongside the imperial family. Rumors outside say that the Heavenly Serpent Mansion is above the imperial family, but that information is exaggerated!"
Elder Green Snake did not hide anything and told him all the information.
"Elder Green Snake, the task I give you is to return to the Heavenly Serpent Mansion as an inside agent. The vanguard of the Dazheng Empire has already begun to move!"
The Blood Shadow Clone said indifferently.
