252: Major events, the gathering of the five great saints!
Inside Misty Rain Tower.
Jiang Taibai, who was originally prepared to stay out of it and watch the show, suddenly received a message from an Elder saying that the Imperial Advisor of the Great Xia Dynasty had arrived and specifically asked to see him.
He hurried to the reception hall and saw Wan Lei already seated.
“Imperial Advisor Wan, I apologize for making you wait.”
Upon entering, Jiang Taibai approached Wan Lei with a smile.
Wan Lei stood up and said, “It seems the Special Envoy has been quite idle lately.”
“Since that’s the case, by His Majesty’s command, I happen to have something that requires the Misty Rain Tower’s assistance.”
Jiang Taibai’s face showed curiosity: “Oh?”
“What important matter could it be that requires Imperial Advisor Wan to personally make the trip?”
Wan Lei wasted no words. With a wave of his hand, three still-warm heads, emanating a strong, pungent smell of blood, appeared in the reception hall.
Jiang Taibai’s gaze swept over them, and he couldn’t help but tremble.
His eyes widened instantly, and for a moment, he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
“Jue Peng, Demon Emperor Shuangye, Demon Emperor Dixiong… Three Demon Emperors?!”
“Imperial Advisor Wan, they…”
Jiang Taibai was so shocked he couldn’t help but ask.
Wan Lei promptly explained, “The three of them are dead.”
“I came here to ask Misty Rain Tower to deliver these three heads to Destruction Demon Lord on our behalf.”
“And to convey a message to him: from now on, the Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall is an enemy of my Great Xia Dynasty. If he wishes to stop the conflict, he must hand over the special creature he is raising.”
“Otherwise, he will bear the consequences!”
“Misty Rain Tower only needs to convey the message. As for the remuneration, Special Envoy Jiang only needs to name a price, and my Imperial Dynasty will pay it in full at once!”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Taibai couldn’t hide the shock on his face. He was stunned for several seconds before reacting, saying, “Imperial Advisor Wan, this… this matter, I need to consult with the General Tower.”
“After all, it’s too significant, so please wait a moment, Imperial Advisor Wan.”
Wan Lei nodded, “No problem, go ahead.”
“Alright.”
Jiang Taibai immediately left the reception hall and went to the top floor, managing to use an internal channel to urgently inform the North Tower Lord of this matter.
Three Demon Emperors died in the Great Xia Dynasty!
These were not Quasi-Emperors!
They were genuine Great Emperor Realm Cultivators!
And the message the Great Xia Dynasty wanted their Misty Rain Tower to convey—that wasn't just a message; it was a blatant declaration of war!
The seriousness of this matter could only be decided by the few Tower Masters at the General Tower.
Jiang Taibai stood in place and waited for a while.
Finally, the North Tower Lord replied.
“Agree to it.”
Only three short words, yet he had pondered for a long time.
Jiang Taibai couldn’t help but guess that the North Tower Lord might have reported this matter to the General Tower Master, which was why it took longer.
After receiving the directive from above, Jiang Taibai met Wan Lei again and agreed to his request.
As for the remuneration, Jiang Taibai, as usual, waived the fee.
………………
Because the transportation of the three heads would take time, there was no major upheaval in Divine Continent Pure Land during the following days.
However, some things happened in the Holy Land.
Like Heaven and Earth Pavilion!
Someone discovered that Heaven and Earth Pavilion had been massacred overnight. The Vice Pavilion Master Lan Lingjie, along with all the Elders and Disciples in the pavilion, were all killed, completely annihilated!
The perpetrators were ruthless, leaving no survivors and no traces.
No one knew who the culprits were, but many speculated that an Emperor Realm figure might have been responsible to achieve such a silent act.
Besides this matter, there was another major event.
Three Rivers Holy Land, Yan Yun Holy Land, Five Elements Holy Land, Alchemy Holy Land, and Nan Yu Holy Land—these five Holy Lands, as the top five Holy Land forces in the Holy Land.
The Holy Lords of these five Holy Lands were all invited to gather at the Great Xia Dynasty.
Before the Great Xia Dynasty emerged, they could be said to be the five strongest forces in the Holy Land!
Although they did not have Eternal Realm powerhouses, the number of Heavenly Severance Realm Cultivators all exceeded double digits.
Moreover, most of them had backgrounds connected to forces in Divine Continent Pure Land.
For example, Three Rivers Holy Land was backed by Yellow Springs Emperor Palace of Yellow Springs Great Emperor.
Yan Yun Holy Land was backed by Scarlet Cloud Emperor Palace of Scarlet Cloud Great Emperor.
Five Elements Holy Land was backed by Jijin Emperor Palace of Jijin Great Emperor.
Nan Yu Holy Land was backed by the Family force of Divine Continent Pure Land, the Nan Family.
The Family also had a Great Emperor Realm powerhouse overseeing it!
Except for Alchemy Holy Land, these other four Holy Lands all had Great Emperor Realm forces supporting them.
The Holy Lords of the five great Holy Lands were all gathered in the Great Hall of the Great Xia Dynasty today.
At this moment, Chu Yun was seated on the main seat.
On both sides, Heavenly Demoness, Meng Ruxue, and Afuya were all seated.
Qian Sha, Wan Lei, Yang Bu, Meng Changzhong, Jin Mu, and others were seated on the side, while the five Holy Lords sat on the other side, all enjoying the enchanting dance performed by the dancing girls in gauze skirts.
As the dance concluded, Chu Yun waved his sleeve, and the many dancing girls exited. Only then did the banquet truly begin.
“Chu Emperor, I heard that there are some misunderstandings between your Imperial Dynasty and Elf Island.”
“Now, I see the Great Xia Dynasty in excellent shape, with a flourishing scene within the Imperial City. It seems the Great Xia Dynasty hasn’t been much affected by Elf Island, has it?”
At this moment, the Holy Lord of Three Rivers actually took the initiative to bring up the relationship between the Great Xia Dynasty and Elf Island.
Chu Yun smiled faintly, “A mere Elf Island. If their ancestors were still alive, they might have earned my respect.”
“But unfortunately, now they are all just useless trash.”
Upon hearing this, the Holy Lords’ expressions changed slightly.
They truly hadn’t expected Chu Yun to curse them out so directly and plainly.
No matter what, Elf Island was still one of the nine super first-rate forces.
“Chu Emperor, are the Elf Island ancestors you mentioned referring to the legendary Elven Queen?” the Alchemy Holy Lord asked at this time.
Chu Yun glanced at Afuya, then turned his gaze back, smiling and nodding, “Indeed, only the Elf Island where the Elven Queen resided back then was the true Elf Island.”
“As for these people now, they are just garbage living off the glory of their ancestors.”
“The nine super first-rate forces, if not for the foundation the Elven Queen once left for Elf Island, then just those four great Families today? Heh… they wouldn’t even be worthy!”
Chu Yun directly ridiculed the four great Families of Elf Island in front of them.
Afuya’s expression remained unchanged; she also agreed with Chu Yun’s view.
Currently, over ninety percent of the high-ranking Elf Clan members on Elf Island were rotten to the core!
