117: Three holy sons! All for the sake of taking Shen Tianxing's life!
Prince Pei's Mansion.
Imperial Garden.
Prince Pei, dressed in a brocade robe, sat leisurely by a stone table.
Several plates of fruit exuding Spiritual Qi, two pots of rich and mellow aged wine, and his two trusted aides, Fu Xiu and Min Wenshu, sat opposite him, each holding a wine cup, squinting as they savored the wine, looking utterly at ease.
“Your Highness, the Ghost Dao Sects have finally arrived! From the looks of it, those who came are not low in cultivation!”
Fu Xiu, as his top general, possessed exceptional cultivation and had already stepped into the Carefree Realm. He could tell at a glance that the solitary city was not simple.
Min Wenshu also smiled, saying, “In my opinion, Shen Tianxing probably won’t end well this time. Many Ghost Cultivator Masters from various Sects have died by his hand. Does he really think that the Demon and Monster Division and various Ghost Cultivator Sects can’t do anything to him?”
“I think the people who appeared this time are at least Elder-level figures from the Sects, or it might even be the Saint acting personally!”
Min Wenshu was also a Xiaoyao Realm Master, known for his ingenious strategies and sharp insight!
Prince Pei, however, remained calm, his expression very indifferent.
“Solitary Mountain Ghost Domain, an ancient variant of the Azure Ox, devouring Hell with its Divine Soul!”
“It has been many years since we last saw such a grand occasion with three Saints gracing us with their presence.”
“This Prince is very curious how Shen Tianxing, with his mere Fifth Level of the Carefree Realm cultivation, will handle this situation.”
Prince Pei's cultivation was already at the Half-step Divine Profound!
If not for the injuries he sustained back then, which damaged his Foundation, he would definitely be far beyond this!
But even though his cultivation had not entered the Divine Profound, his eyes could see what others could not.
The Saints of the Heavenly Fiend Sect, Yin Soul Sect, and Nether Moon Sect, though not yet revealed, were still seen through by him at a glance.
“Are Saints really making a move? And three of them at once?!”
Min Wenshu and Fu Xiu exchanged glances, their wine cups trembling.
Saints were existences beyond the Sect Masters, not only holding a special status but also possessing unfathomable cultivation.
At the same time, the power they wielded was unmatched!
As long as they had a need, the Demon and Monster Division and Various Ghost Dao Sects would spare no effort to assist!
It was no exaggeration to say that their authority, to some extent, was almost on par with that of a Sect Master.
Since they had arrived, the Masters behind the Demon and Monster Division and various Ghost Cultivator Sects were probably not far behind!
...Prince Pei and the others’ guesses were not wrong, but they miscalculated one point.
These three Saints did not move out with the Masters of their respective Sects.
They were arrogant, and Shen Tianxing's current fame was too dazzling, making them very indignant!
This is why today's drama unfolded.
Meanwhile, high in the sky.
Within the gloomy solitary city, Niu Yuan, the Saint of the Heavenly Fiend Sect, stood with Mu Zhong.
The Solitary Mountain Ghost Domain concealed their whereabouts, but for Zhao Wuyue, a Saint of the same Ghost Dao lineage, he could easily locate them.
A blood-red light integrated into the solitary city, and Zhao Wuyue, the Saint of the Yin Soul Sect, dressed in a blood-colored long robe, with cold eyes and a pale face, appeared before Mu Zhong.
“Mu Zhong, Niu Yuan, you two actually came as well.”
“This truly surprises this Saint!”
Zhao Wuyue's voice carried a hint of aloofness, as if warning strangers to keep their distance, and his demeanor was extremely arrogant.
Niu Yuan chuckled, his eyes darting about, about to speak.
But Mu Zhong, who was beside him, spoke first!
“Zhao Wuyue, if you can come, what's so strange about us coming?”
“What? You’ve been here for at least three or four days, haven't you found any trace of Shen Tianxing?”
“Or are you afraid of death and dare not act?”
Mu Zhong and Zhao Wuyue were already at odds, competing in everything they did!
Their strength, however, was evenly matched; neither could truly defeat the other!
When cultivation couldn't determine a winner, they could only rely on other things to decide the victor!
For example, Shen Tianxing's head?
“Hahaha! This Saint would be afraid?”
“Forget it! It doesn't matter if I tell you, this place will soon become a battlefield!”
“Since Shen Tianxing dared to openly tell us he's here, he must have made preparations.”
“Before he's ready, that's our only chance to kill him!”
Although Zhao Wuyue was arrogant, he wasn't foolish. In fact, no one who could become a Sect Saint was a fool.
For these three or four days, he had been observing everything outside Pei Wang City.
He hadn't seen Shen Tianxing, but he found out that Shen Tianxing was staying in the Imperial Garden on the mountainside!
This was easy to discern; the gathering of Three Departments Experts in the Imperial Garden on the mountainside was enough to indicate that it was Shen Tianxing's territory!
“In that case, there's no need for us to say more.”
“As long as that old fellow Prince Pei doesn't betray us, killing Shen Tianxing and eliminating the Three Departments Experts is enough for the three of us!”
“If you want to compete, then each of you use your own abilities, the big picture is what matters!”
Niu Yuan didn't want to get involved in their petty squabbles.
Killing Shen Tianxing was the most important thing!
“Hmph!”
Mu Zhong snorted, but didn't retort.
Zhao Wuyue nodded and said, “The brute's suggestion is good. First, deal with the annoying Three Departments people. As for Shen Tianxing's head, we'll each rely on our own abilities!”
Whoosh!!!
Zhao Wuyue came quickly and left just as fast!
Boom!!!
After Zhao Wuyue left the solitary city, his Divine Soul power surged out, releasing the Ghost Domain constructed by his own Soul Power!
A violent roar echoed in the sky, and a blood-red expanse filled the firmament!
Where there had only been dark clouds, a blood-red long river suddenly appeared!
The blood-red long river floated in the sky, its surging blood-water churning, blood-Qi permeating, a stunning crimson, with Evil Qi piercing the heavens!
“The Blood-Red Long River! Oh my heavens, who is making a move now?!”
“This is a Ghost Domain of a Ghost Dao Master! Such a vast blood river covering us, oh my god, I’m afraid we can’t escape!”
“Where is Prince Pei? Why isn't Prince Pei acting yet? What exactly do they want to do?!”
At this moment, many Masters within Pei Wang City panicked!
This Blood-Red Long River, who knows how many living beings it had devoured and annihilated to produce such terrifyingly fierce and resentful Evil Qi!
It was far more terrifying than the phantom of the solitary ancient city!
The Blood River and the solitary city enveloped the large mountain on the opposite bank of the river!
The Imperial Garden on the mountainside seemed to be swallowed by the blood-red color!
“They are indeed coming for Shen Tianxing!”
Some people saw that the Blood River and the solitary city did not continue towards Pei Wang City but instead hovered above the Imperial Garden, and they immediately understood.
“Shen Tianxing has already formed too deep a grudge with the Demon and Monster Division and Ghost Cultivators. How can they vent their anger without killing him? Don’t forget, many of their Prodigies died by Shen Tianxing’s hand!”
“That's true, but this is Pei Wang City, after all. Prince Pei can't just stand by, can he?”
Many Cultivators were surprised to find that, until now, Prince Pei's Mansion still showed no activity!
Not even the city's patrol army had appeared!
The more they thought about it, the more terrifying it became!!!
No one dared to guess further!
...In the Imperial Garden, Ye Qingyu was already able to get out of bed and walk. Seeing the terrifying Blood River, she quickly gathered the Three Departments Experts with Nie Xiaowu to prepare for the confrontation.
“Ghost Cultivators!”
Whether it was the Demon and Monster Division or the Ghost Cultivators, it was clear that they were coming for Shen Tianxing!
Since Shen Tianxing wasn't present, Ye Qingyu naturally couldn't back down!
“Give the order, prepare for battle!”
“Yes!”
Over a hundred Three Departments Experts were still stationed in the Imperial Garden; this force was not weak!
Xu Muqing also appeared.
“Lord Ye, I’ll go with you!”
Xu Muqing recognized Ye Qingyu at a glance.
It wasn't their first meeting; they had interacted before.
Meeting here, a thought flashed through the minds of both beautiful women.
“Good!”
Ye Qingyu didn't delve deeper; time didn't allow her to think too much.
Her Demon and Monster Division battle robe swirled, and even with her injuries, she remained heroic and spirited!
“Shen Tianxing, get out here!!!”
