185: The Four Emperors of the Phoenix Clan!

Jing Emperor is one of the Four Emperors of the Phoenix Clan.

“The Four Emperors of the Phoenix Clan are figures second only to the two Great Emperors of the Phoenix Clan within the clan. All four are quasi-Emperor Realm existences and are the true core high-level members of the entire Phoenix Clan,” Meng Ruxue explained.

When she was alive in her previous life, she had dealt with the Phoenix Clan.

She had also gained an understanding of their internal personnel.

Jing Emperor of the Phoenix Clan had the fewest offspring, so he doted on each of his children immensely.

This could be seen from his decision to send Feng Du to guard Phoenix Ao Ming, which was enough to show his Pay attention to for Phoenix Ao Ming.

“Oh?”

“The Four Emperors of the Phoenix Clan, quasi-Emperor, is that right…?”

Chu Yun pondered internally.

He was considering how to maximize Phoenix Ao Ming's value.

After a moment of contemplation, Chu Yun immediately had an idea.

“Since that’s the case, what do you two think about using Phoenix Ao Ming to get that so-called Jing Emperor to exchange him for a million-year-old blood essence stone? Is that possible?” Chu Yun asked the two women.

“A million-year-old blood essence stone, its preciousness is second only to a quasi-Emperor war weapon.”

“This value is a bit over the top.”

“However… just looking at Jing Emperor's level of importance for Phoenix Ao Ming, it might not be impossible.”

“With the Phoenix Clan's foundation, they should be able to produce a million-year-old blood essence stone,” Meng Ruxue said after calmly thinking for a while.

The Heavenly Demoness also offered her opinion: “I also think it’s worth a try.”

“The fact that Jing Emperor could send a Peak Heavenly Severance Realm Cultivator to guard his son indicates that Phoenix Ao Ming holds a very high place in his heart.”

Listening to the two women, Chu Yun immediately made a decision: “Good.”

“Prime Minister, go to Misty Rain Tower and have them relay a message from this Emperor to Jing Emperor of the Phoenix Clan.”

“Tell him that if he wants his son to be safe, he needs to exchange him for a million-year-old blood essence stone.”

Meng Changzhong nodded in response: “Yes, Your Majesty!”

Then, Chu Yun looked at Yang Bu: “Yang Bu, Phoenix Ao Ming still has value. As for Feng Du, I'm leaving him to you.”

“You should know what to do, right?”

Yang Bu accepted the order: “Your Majesty, rest assured, Yang Bu understands.”

After this, Meng Changzhong went to Misty Rain Tower.

Phoenix Ao Ming, on the other hand, was taken away by Jin Mu and locked up.

As for Feng Du, the Dao Protector, he suffered the worst fate.

After being thoroughly tormented by Yang Bu, his hatred was maximized, and he was finally refined by Yang Bu's Heavenly Eye Blazing Light.

This provided Chu Yun with 200,000 editing points.

A Peak Heavenly Severance Realm Cultivator with maximized hatred, 200,000 editing points, was already the limit.

Currently, Chu Yun already had 1.07 million editing points.

He was only 30,000 short of being able to upgrade his blind box again.

...

Misty Rain Tower.

Jiang Taibai sat at the head, while Bai Xuanran stood before him, reporting on Meng Changzhong's visit requesting them to send a message.

After listening, Jiang Taibai couldn't help but frown.

Chu Emperor truly didn't think he had enough enemies.

He had captured Phoenix Ao Ming, and now he wanted Misty Rain Tower to relay a message to Jing Emperor.

This was no different from a bandit holding a hostage for ransom.

If it weren't for Thatched Cottage backing him, Jiang Taibai felt that Chu Yun wouldn't have lived until now.

“Relay it.”

“Report this to the General Tower' intelligence network and transmit this message to Jing Emperor. Just do as instructed.”

“As for the reward, it's not necessary.”

“You can return it to Meng Changzhong,” Jiang Taibai said after a slight sigh.

“Yes, Lord Jiang.”

Bai Xuanran immediately went to carry out the order.

Jiang Taibai walked to the balcony outside the tower, gazing towards the depths of the imperial palace, “Those from Thatched Cottage are indeed extraordinary.”

“This frequency of causing trouble, I've lived for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen it.”

...

Two days passed.

After repeatedly confirming with Xu Nian, Chu Yun confirmed that the four Eternal Realm Cultivators sent by Elf Island had returned to Divine Continent Pure Land immediately after reaching the border of Hundred Dynasty Land.

Chu Yun guessed that the sudden arrival and departure of the four Eternal Realm powerhouses from the Elf Clan were most likely due to someone from Thatched Cottage showing up.

Only this explanation could reasonably account for everything.

After temporarily resolving the issue with Elf Island, Chu Yun immediately arranged for their departure to Shattered Star Sea.

This time, Wan Lei, Meng Ruxue, Meng Changzhong, and Si Zhen remained in the imperial palace to help Chu Yun guard the imperial city's rear.

For this expedition, Chu Yun himself led Yang Bu, Nan Xuan, the Heavenly Demoness, Afuya, the Fire Spirit Woman, Murong Yin, and the Four Knights, along with two hundred Shadow Guards led by Jin Mu. They all boarded the flying spirit boat and headed to the Holy Land.

Chu Yun was not worried about the situation on Elf Island anymore.

Xu Nian had already returned to the General Tower of Misty Rain Tower and had already used Misty Rain Tower's powerful intelligence capabilities to closely monitor Elf Island.

Should there be any disturbance from Elf Island, Xu Nian would send a message to Chu Yun immediately, allowing him to prepare in advance!

PS: Here's some good news for everyone.

The short drama for this book will be released in the next two days. You can search for the book title and click to pre-order, so that when the short drama goes online, you can watch it immediately.

Many people are still asking about the Realms. I'm truly exhausted, so I'll post them again for you to remember (this is truly not me padding the word count, I'm just helpless).

[Innate Realm, Qi Condensation Realm, Qi Gathering Realm, Qi Transformation Realm, Golden Core Realm, Nascent Soul Realm, Shattered Realm, Nirvana Realm, Venerable Realm, Heavenly Phase Realm (Celestial Venerable), Supreme Realm, King Sealing Realm, Saint Realm, Saint King Realm, Undying Realm, Heavenly Severance Realm, Eternal Realm, Quasi-Emperor, Great Emperor Realm...]

Also, some questions about Uncle Xu Nian, I'll answer them.

His uncle is the Deputy General Manager, and his cultivation is the same as the General Manager, both are Peak Eternal Realm.

In the Four General Tower, the two managers in each tower generally have the same cultivation.

It's just that the General Manager has higher authority.

If you liken the Deputy Manager to a provincial governor, then the General Manager is Gao Yuliang, and the Deputy Manager is Li Dakang.

Hopefully, that makes sense now.
