Dominating Martial King-Chapter 1570 - 536: Heavenly List 21?

He had people watch day and night, yet this child still managed to rise to prominence.

Chu Xisheng’s combat power entered the top thirty of the Heavenly List, and the means to balance him in the Mortal World became fewer and fewer.

Emperor Jianyuan knew that the Upper Third Grade Secret Medicine for the Formless Skill was extremely easy to obtain.

The Martial Arts Nine Ranks Eighteen Tiers is much easier to advance than a Promotion.

They were unable to stop Chu Xisheng at the Lower Third Grade, and certainly couldn’t stop him at the Upper Third Grade.

This child entering the top ten of the Heavenly List within half a year was already a certainty.

"Your Majesty, now is not the time to be thinking about these things."

Yu Kunlun shook his head: "Our people have already been exposed. Does Your Majesty plan to give up now, or continue with our plan?"

Emperor Jianyuan’s face was somber as he looked out of the window again.

Although his courtyard was on the lower layer of the ice, it was at the edge, with a small window specifically for shooting crossbows.

The view from here was excellent.

Emperor Jianyuan, however, had no mood to appreciate it: "What impact will the withdrawal of peripheral forces have on me?"

"Not much impact."

Yu Kunlun slightly shook his head: "Ween Zhiyi has already become vigilant. She did not personally take action earlier because she was modifying the Forbidden Palace, the Sea Suppressing Temple, and the Forbidden Technique structure of the core array in Ice City. She has already retracted part of the control from Gui Haoyuan and others, and ordered the imperial guards to cleanse the city.

Fortunately, none of our arrangements against Ween Zhiyi involved the periphery, nor was Gui Haoyuan the key point. However, if the plan fails or identities are exposed, Your Majesty may find yourself in a desperate situation, bound to die."

"Desperate situation?"

Emperor Jianyuan let out a snort, filled with self-mockery: "Do I have a choice? The State Preceptor deliberately returned with a wound on your shoulder, isn’t it to tell me that I have no room to retreat? With Chu Xisheng growing wings, if I don’t have the power to crush him, there lies an abyss ahead."

With his hands behind his back, he commanded: "Continue! In the past, I was able to bet everything and ascend to the throne over the blood of my three royal brothers, and I will not lack the courage to burn my bridges now either."

Upon hearing this, Yu Kunlun nodded slightly: "Then I’ll pass the order for Your Majesty, instructing the dark forces of the Police Pool of Blood within Ice City to incite chaos and attack their Floating Array."

He remained expressionless, his eyes calm.

Yu Kunlun was still comparing the young man he hated to the extreme, Chu Xisheng, with Emperor Jianyuan.

What a pity—if the emperor had been born twenty years earlier, how great it would have been?

At first, Emperor Jianyuan was puzzled, then he understood and said: "A sacrifice? It’s a good strategy."

Today, a large number of court Martial Cultivators are lurking near Extreme East Ice City, waiting for an opportunity to act; how could this not arouse suspicion throughout Ice City?

But now there was a good explanation—the Daning Court planned to create chaos during the Great Festival of Ice City, intending to destroy Ice City’s Floating Array, but was repelled by Chu Xisheng passing through this place.

So indeed, it was a good strategy.

The court’s forces lurking in Ice City being purged would instead cause the upper echelons of Ice City to further lower their guard.

They could even use Ice City’s own forces to drive out that rogue Chu Xisheng.

Emperor Jianyuan then frowned again.

Why did Chu Xisheng come to Extreme East Ice City? If he were going from You State to the Iron Banner Gang, he wouldn’t need to detour here at all.

And One Sword Overturning City Wen Zhiyi, she didn’t show up at all yesterday.

She said she needed to retreat for one day to study Sword Dao, but the Palace City was tightly closed; who knows where she went?

Did she go to secretly meet with Chu Xisheng?

Then, does Ween Zhiyi’s virgin yin still exist now?

Emperor Jianyuan waved his fist irritably, striking the windowsill.

He didn’t use force, fearing to alarm the City Guard Army of Ice City.

Nor did he attempt to verify; there were still five hours until the Great Festival of Ice City, where he could see for himself.

※※※※

An hour later, in the sky three thousand miles away from Ice City.

God Seven Killings hovered with hands behind his back above the second layer of clouds.

"Here it is!"

God Seven Killings observed the gigantic Ice City ahead: "The meeting place of Divine Yin and Extreme Yang power."

Behind him, stood an Eternal God with a divine body five hundred zhang tall.

That was Star Lord Zhuanlun, who took a deep breath: "I feel the aura of ’Yin God’ Yue Xi, and that Tai Chu Ice Wheel—a Divine Weapon that fell into the Mortal World after the Ice God ’Emperor Xuan’ injured Yue Xi."

Star Lord’s eyes then coldly glanced in another direction: "I also sensed another person, that Infinite Blade Lord of the Human Clan. This person possesses the Divine Yang Body. Is he the other key to the fusion of this Divine Yang and Yin?"

God Seven Killings had once promised, that given the chance, he would personally eliminate this human disaster.

"It should not be!"

God Seven Killings shook his head: "To unite Divine Yang and Yin requires a suitable vessel, and although this person carries ’Divine Yang’, he cannot possibly accommodate both Divine Yin and Yang. Even if he could, he would be only a tool, a foetus."

God Seven Killings’ eyes were cold, with a hint of mockery: "And also, I sensed the presence of that reptile. I thought it was Zhi Sou playing tricks, but didn’t expect it to be him."

"Reptile?"

Concentrating, God Seven Killings thought for a moment, then his expression changed: "The offspring of Long Kui, Zhe Dragon?"

Long Kui was the last Yeen Dragon in the heaven and earth.

Zhe Dragon was his eldest son and the only one of its kind in the world.

Legend has it that this Dragon was born innately deficient, spending most of its time in deep slumber.

Yet it inherited all of Long Kui’s power, with battle capabilities upon awakening no less than those of previous Yeen Dragons.
