428: Chapter 428 The Heavenly Emperor's Attendant

Heavenly Court.

As the Director of the Heavenly Court's Mining Department, Qin Ming was now as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Within a mere single day.

Multiple High Grade Immortal Crystal Mines under the jurisdiction of the Mining Department were seized, and all the Grand Unity Golden Immortals, managers, and miners at the mines were killed.

He had successively gone to the Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye and the Southern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ming.

The answers he received were that they were both in seclusion.

Consequently, he came to the Western Immortal Emperor.

But the news he received was still that he was in seclusion.

Having no other choice, he could only turn to the Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing.

Under the treatment of the White-Headed Immortal, Xuan Na finally awoke.

The mother and daughter were just preparing to exchange a few intimate words.

Suddenly, someone came to report: "Immortal Emperor, the Director of the Mining Department, Qin Ming, requests an audience!"

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing frowned slightly. Just as she was about to refuse, Xuan Na spoke up: "Mother, official business is important. Your daughter is fine now!"

"Very well. You have just recovered and are still somewhat weak. Rest well, and I will come to see you again tomorrow!" Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing said softly before leaving.

Arriving at the living room.

Looking at Qin Ming, who was filled with anxiety, Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing asked in a deep voice: "What is the matter?"

"Immortal Emperor, something terrible has happened!"

Qin Ming's expression turned fearful: "Someone has attacked our High Grade Immortal Crystal Mines. Currently, 87 High Grade Immortal Crystal Mines have been seized, and all the Grand Unity Golden Immortal managers and miners stationed at the mines have been wiped out by mysterious raiders!"

"What?"

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing was shocked: "Such a thing has happened? Why are you only reporting this now?"

Qin Ming smiled bitterly: "Immortal Emperor, after learning the news, your subordinate already went to find the other three Immortal Emperors, but they were all in seclusion!"

"Is that raider still continuing to plunder the High Grade Immortal Crystal Mines?" Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing asked.

"They are!" Qin Ming said, waving his hand to manifest a map: "There are two groups of raiders. According to your subordinate's calculations, they should be heading to these two Immortal Crystal Mines respectively to continue their plundering!"

"Very well, this Immortal Emperor understands!"

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing said.

Subsequently, she immediately summoned two subordinates at the ninth level of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm and tore through the Void Realm to depart.

In a short while.

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing arrived at a High Grade Immortal Crystal Mine.

Unfortunately, they were one step too late.

This mining site had already become a ruin.

Consequently, she immediately led her people to rush to the next High Grade Immortal Crystal Mine.

They happened to see Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye hovering in mid-air, as High Grade Immortal Crystals flew out from the mine below, shattered, and turned into Immortal Qi, which was being absorbed by him.

"It is Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye!"

The two Hunyuan Golden Immortal ninth-level cultivators who had come with Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing were all filled with shock and surprise.

"Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye!"

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing shouted in a low voice: "What exactly are you doing?"

"So it is you!"

Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye turned his head back; he did not have the slightest panic at being discovered, but instead said calmly.

"Are you planning to betray the Heavenly Emperor and the Heavenly Court?" Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing questioned sternly.

But facing Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing's questioning, Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye smiled dismissively: "Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing, we have at least billions of years of friendship. If you act as if nothing happened, this Immortal Emperor will not make things difficult for you. If you insist on obstructing this Immortal Emperor, then do not blame this Immortal Emperor for not valuing old ties!"

"You are courting death!"

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing was enraged; she drew her ice-blue longsword and slashed towards Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye.

"Pfft!"

Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye simply raised his hand and threw a punch, shattering Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing's attack.

"This... how is this possible?"

Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye, Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing felt incredulous.

Because she knew that Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye, like her, was at the third level of the Wuji Golden Immortal realm.

But the cultivation aura Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye was now revealing was that of the eighth level of the Wuji Golden Immortal realm.

"How about it?"

Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye smiled contemptuously: "If you retreat now, this Immortal Emperor will not hold it against you. If you insist on opposing this Immortal Emperor, then this Immortal Emperor will have no choice but to eliminate you!"

"Although you are at the eighth level of the Wuji Golden Immortal realm, the Heavenly Emperor is at the ninth level of the Wuji Golden Immortal realm, and he possesses three High Grade Innate Spirit Treasures for protection. Are you not afraid that he will settle accounts with you?" Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing stared at him and asked.

"Hahaha!"

Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye laughed loudly: "By the day he comes to settle accounts with me, I will have already surpassed him!"

The cultivation of the Wuji Golden Immortal realm can be described as a new heaven with every step.

They had cultivated for billions of years, and were only at the ninth level of the Wuji Golden Immortal realm.

Furthermore, the further one progresses, the more challenging it becomes.

She did not believe that Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye could surpass Haotian in a short period.

"Since you are stubborn and refuse to see reason, I cannot be bothered to persuade you further!"

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing snorted coldly and left with her two subordinates.

Knowing that she was no match for Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye, she would not choose to fight to the death.

Seeing Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing leave.

Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye also breathed a sigh of relief.

With his strength, killing Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing would not be difficult.

But Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing was, after all, a veteran Wuji Golden Immortal who had lived for billions of years.

Who knew how many trump cards she had.

He was currently racing against time, and he did not want to waste any.

Very soon.

The High Grade Immortal Crystals of this High Grade Immortal Crystal Mine were all absorbed, and he continued to the next one.

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing, who had returned to the Heavenly Court, immediately went to find Haotian to report.

Unfortunately, Haotian's attendant intercepted her outside the place of seclusion: "The Heavenly Emperor has ordered that no one is to disturb his seclusion!"

"Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye and Southern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ming have rebelled, and furthermore, the cultivation of both Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye and Southern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ming has reached the eighth level of the Wuji Golden Immortal realm!" Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing said in a heavy tone: "Please report this news to the Heavenly Emperor as soon as possible and have him come out to preside over the overall situation!"

Although she had not gone to find the other raider.

But thinking of the relationship between Eastern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ye and Southern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ming, she had already determined that the raider in the other direction was Southern Immortal Emperor Xuan Ming.

Hearing Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing's words, Haotian's attendant was also taken aback.

"Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing, Lord Heavenly Emperor has already sealed off the entire place of seclusion with a Formation, and even we cannot contact Lord Heavenly Emperor!" The attendant smiled bitterly.

"Since that is the case, why not let me bombard the Formation? Lord Heavenly Emperor should be able to sense it!" Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing pondered slightly and suggested a method.

"That will not do!"

The attendant refused decisively: "Lord Heavenly Emperor gave instructions beforehand that no one is to be disturbed. What if you bombard the Formation and startle Lord Heavenly Emperor during his Breakthrough!"

"But if the Heavenly Emperor does not come out of seclusion, the entire Heavenly Court will be in chaos!" Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing said worriedly.

"I do not care about that. In any case, we only act according to Lord Heavenly Emperor's orders!" The attendant shook his head and said.

"You!"

Anger appeared on Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing's face: "What if I insist on bombarding the Formation?"

Hearing this, the two attendants' expressions changed drastically in unison: "Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing, if you insist on doing this, we two brothers will have no choice but to do our best to stop you!"

"Hmph!"

She snorted coldly.

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing raised her finger, and a Sword Qi blasted towards the Formation.

"You!"

The two attendants were furious, and they simultaneously shifted to the front of the Formation and shattered Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing's Sword Qi.

Seeing this.

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing was somewhat surprised; she had not expected that Haotian's two attendants would have such strength, being able to shatter her attack.

But now she could not care about that much.

She struck again.

Heaven-filling ice-blue Sword Qi surged towards the Formation.

At this moment, the attendant on the left took out a small golden drum and began to beat it with his fist.

"Dong, dong, dong!"

As the drum sound rang out, the heaven-filling Sword Qi suddenly dissipated.

"High Grade Innate Spirit Treasure!"

Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing exclaimed.

"Northern Immortal Emperor Xuanbing, if you dare to strike again, do not blame us two brothers for being impolite to you!" The attendant on the left said angrily.

"That is correct!"

The attendant on the right also nodded in agreement.
