World-Ending Demon Emperor-Chapter 1969 - 895: Lanling, the Dragon Emperor! (Important)

Chapter 1969: Chapter 895: Lanling, the Dragon Emperor! (Important)

The Dragon Temple is caught in a dilemma!

In the face of the final battle in the Southern Barbaric Lands, how should the Dragon Temple choose?

Is Lanling more important, or the Hell Knights?

Should Lanling continue to attract the appearance of the Hell Knights? In this final battle, should they help King Tiancha?

Will the Hell Knights appear?

Currently, the highest leader handling Southern Barbaric affairs in the Dragon Temple is Candidate Sky Priest Hui Gu, and he holds full authority.

Now, whoever kills Lanling will be a sinner for eternity. This has always been an absolute rule in the Dragon Temple. However, the situation has changed, Lanling helped the Dini Legion vanish into thin air in Yun E Royal City, and they reappeared after King Tiancha and the Na Xue Legion left.

What does this prove? It proves Lanling’s significant advancement in energy studies.

So should Lanling continue to grow?

In the end, Hui Gu was unsure and reported directly to his leader, Priest Gu Ban of the Sky Shrine!

There are factions everywhere, even in the Sky Holy Palace.

...

Inside the Demon Star Pavilion of the Sky Holy Palace!

Over the past seven years, Fu Lingxi has experienced such success that even the term "prosperous" doesn’t do it justice.

Because she discovered the World-Ending Demon Emperor, she was promoted to Judge of the Zhi Du Sanctuary, and when the Dragon Temple lifted martial restrictions, she became one of the first members to study.

Of course, her martial arts were exceptionally bad, but in the past environment, her martial arts didn’t need to be strong, in fact, they needed to be bad, because she was always engaged with the world.

However, after the identity of the Demon Star Master was revealed, she distanced herself from the secular world. Every generation of masqueraders carries part of the Dragon Emperor’s genes and bloodline, possessing high aptitude, though it was not activated yet.

During the four-year tenure as the Grand Judge, besides wielding power in the Rage Wave Kingdom, she spent most of her time practicing advanced energy martial arts.

After concluding a five-year term, she was promoted from the Grand Judge of Zhi Du Sanctuary to the Grand Judge of Yanjing Holy Temple.

Now, two and a half years later, she is pursuing advancement once again, so she appears once more in the Demon Star Pavilion, her greatest patron, Demon Star Pavilion Master Ning Wuya, the detached leader in the Sky Holy Palace, the highest arbiter concerning the Demon Star and the World-Ending Demon Emperor.

"Master, I have heard that every generation of masqueraders can become a Candidate Sky Judge!" Fu Lingxi said.

The highest authority of the Sky Holy Palace consists of the Sky Priests and the Sky Judges, varying from six to nine in number.

Below them, there are a dozen or so Candidate Sky Priests, Candidate Sky Judges.

"Hmm..." Ning Wuya responded.

Fu Lingxi said, "Even when the Demon Star descends, a masquerader became a Sky Judge."

"Hmm!" Ning Wuya responded.

Fu Lingxi said, "I wish to pursue the position of Candidate Sky Judge!"

Ning Wuya opened his eyes and said, "It’s a bit early; you haven’t even completed the term of the Grand Judge of Yanjing Holy Temple, which lasts five years, and only half have passed."

Fu Lingxi said, "My lord, if I miss this selection for Candidate Sky Priest and Candidate Sky Judge, I’ll have to wait another five years. By then, the World-Ending Demon Emperor will have long turned to dust, and the weight of our Demon Star Pavilion will have diminished. By that time, it would be difficult to ascend to the Sky Holy Palace; I could only make a compensatory attempt before retiring to become a Candidate Sky Judge."

Ning Wuya remained silent.

Fu Lingxi continued, "Now the Demon Star Master is wreaking havoc in the Demon Territory, it’s a time for our Demon Star Pavilion to make a grand plan. My entry into the Sky Holy Palace will be to rally support for you. Don’t forget, over three thousand years ago when the Demon Star Master descended, the Demon Star Pavilion Master became the highest leader of the Sky Holy Palace immediately."

The Demon Star Pavilion said, "That generation of masqueraders succeeded in transforming the Demon Star Master into the Dragon Emperor. And you? After discovering the Demon Star Master, you hastily announced it, hastily eliminated him, severing the last chance."

Over three thousand years ago, the Flame Demon Emperor chose the Dragon Emperor’s legacy over the Demon Emperor’s, not only leading to a resurgence of Human Kingdom civilization but also bringing immense credit to the Dragon Temple. That generation of masqueraders successfully promoted to Sky Judge, and that generation’s Demon Star Pavilion Master successfully became the highest leader of the Sky Holy Palace.

Fu Lingxi said, "But aren’t nine Hell Knights still remaining? If they are all eliminated, would there be any objections to you becoming the highest leader of the Sky Holy Palace? As the Demon Star Pavilion Master, you are detached and can’t directly express opinions in the Sky Holy Palace, but I can, as long as I ascend to become a Candidate Sky Judge."

Ning Wuya helplessly shook his head and said, "Each generation of masqueraders has different personalities, you’re the most greedy of all."

Fu Lingxi gave a charming smile, not taking it as criticism.

"Alright, I understand!" Ning Wuya said, "From now on, do not speak!"

Moments later, a distinguished guest visited the Demon Star Pavilion, it was Priest Gu Ban of the Sky!

Ning Wuya welcomed him with Fu Lingxi.

Gu Ban and Ning Wuya chatted aimlessly, and after a good amount of time, Ning Wuya said, "Exalted Gu Ban, regarding this minor change in the Sky Holy Palace, do you have any thoughts?"

Gu Ban smiled and said, "What thoughts could I have? I’m someone who has made mistakes!"

Gu Ban once granted an exemption medal to Lanling, causing the main young master of Yin Zhou, Fang Qingshu, to end up embarrassingly imprisoned because of it. Although no one blamed Gu Ban afterward, everyone knew in their hearts that it was a mistake! As a Sky Priest, Gu Ban granted an exemption medal to the Demon Star Master!

Ning Wuya said, "Weren’t we the ones who gave that medal to Suo Lun together? It was said, before the Hell Knights emerge, whoever kills the Demon Star Master would be a perennial sinner of the Dragon Temple. So you and I, despite knowing the existence of the Demon Star Master, Suo Lun, remained patient, even granting an exemption medal to him, to avoid alerting someone prematurely. What happened? The internal factional struggles within the Sky Holy Palace led to the premature exposure of the Demon Star Master, and those people couldn’t wait to reap some credit!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Ban’s eyes lit up. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Ning Wuya, the Demon Star Pavilion Master, has the highest decision-making and interpretive authority concerning the Demon Star Master.

If he says that Gu Ban giving Suo Lun a pardon is just, then it is just. Moreover, Ning Wuya is also willing to take on this responsibility.

Ning Wuya continued, "So, regarding this matter, I have something to say. Some people keep harping on about this issue of yours, their intentions are sinister!"

The "some people" refers to Misfortune Priest E Yun.

The Sky Holy Palace is divided into two factions: the Heretic Faction and the Bright Faction.

Misfortune Priest E Yun is the leader of the Heretic Faction, while Gu Ban is the leader of the Bright Faction.

"I’ve also heard that your disciple Ji Xiuning has been drawn away by certain people?" said Demon Star Pavilion Master Ning Wuya.

Gu Ban said, "Ji Xiuning has been implanted with the Divine Demon Source Spring and secretly gave birth to a child. Of course, we need to handle this, so I thought of keeping her calm for a few years. But E Yun hastily made her an inspector, and I couldn’t stop it, lest I seem to hinder my student’s path."

"Some people just love to play little tricks!" said Ning Wuya. "Don’t worry, I will definitely speak for you in this minor reshuffle. The Supreme Leader Shi Tian doesn’t like to speak, and for the position of the second leader, I support you! Now that the Master of Yao Xing is wreaking havoc below, I feel like I have a say."

Gu Ban bowed and said, "Thank you, Master Ning, for speaking out for me."

Then, Gu Ban looked at Fu Lingxi and said, "Fu, you’ve been serving as Chief Sky Judge of the Yanjing Holy Temple for two and a half years?"

Fu Lingxi said, "Yes!"

Gu Ban said, "Now that Yao Xing is wreaking havoc, it’s not good for you to remain below for long as a decoy. You were the first to discover the Master of Yao Xing and should have a bigger voice in this matter. Staying below for too long, your voice is too small, and we can’t hear it, easily missing many correct decisions. It’s better for you to come up! I recommend you for the position of Candidate Sky Judge this time!"

"Yes..." Fu Lingxi bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty Gu Ban!"

Demon Star Pavilion Master Ning Wuya said, "Too young, too young..."

Gu Ban said, "It looks young, like thirty years old. In fact, not young at all, already around fifty."

Ning Wuya said, "Fifty-one entering Sky Holy Palace, the first in hundreds of years!"

Gu Ban said, "Special situation, special time, special treatment!"

Just then, Gu Ban’s eyes flickered and he said, "Why can’t Hui Gu make a decision himself, does he have to keep reporting? Master Ning, Hui Gu has something to report, let’s hear it!"

"Let’s hear it..." said Ning Wuya.

A moment later, the spiritual image of Candidate Sky Priest Hui Gu appeared before everyone, bowing to Gu Ban and Ning Wuya.

"Two masters, the final battle in the Southern Barbaric Lands is ongoing, and Tiancha King is again requesting my support, what decision should I make?" Hui Gu said.

Gu Ban said, "I’ve said it before, you make the decision."

Hui Gu said, "But now the situation has changed, Lanling’s growth rate is incredibly fast. Before, I reported to you how he saved the Dini Legion, should we still stick to the previous decision of fattening Lanling up to lure the Hell Knights and then wipe them out in one net? Lanling’s growth rate is too fast!"

Gu Ban immediately looked at Ning Wuya, as for the matters of Yao Xing, Ning Wuya had the highest decision-making power.

Ning Wuya sternly said, "This decision cannot be changed or wavered! Iron Hell Knights, fleeting Master of Yao Xing. Only by completely eliminating the Hell Knights and transforming them can we ensure the long-term peace and stability of my Dragon people."

Hui Gu said, "I understand, so I have full decision-making power?"

Gu Ban said, "With support from me and Master Ning, you make the decision!"

"Yes!" said Candidate Sky Priest Hui Gu, and then his image disappeared!

After a few more idle exchanges, Gu Ban took his leave.

Ning Wuya emphasized once more, "Between you and E Yun, I support you!"

These words were spoken without the slightest ambiguity, leaving Gu Ban deeply grateful.

Then Ning Wuya said to Fu Lingxi, "Help me see Master Gu Ban off, then you should go back. Don’t come running to me without reason; it’s not good."

"Yes!" Fu Lingxi said.

...

After Gu Ban and Fu Lingxi had left.

A shadow emerged, standing beside Demon Star Pavilion Master Ning Wuya.

"Don’t fight for the second-in-command position this time, it’s difficult for you to surpass Gu Ban," Ning Wuya said. "The black hole energy in your body is always a flaw."

"I know!" a hoarse voice replied.

He was actually Misfortune Priest E Yun, the very person Ning Wuya spoke of just now with sinister intentions.

"How’s the work of pressuring and luring Lanling into becoming the Dragon Emperor going?" Ning Wuya asked.

"So far, everything is going smoothly!" said Misfortune Priest E Yun.

Ning Wuya said, "Remember, once this is accomplished, you and I can dominate the entire Sky Holy Palace for hundreds of years, dominate the entire world for hundreds of years! Our Supreme Leader Shi Tian is really too..."

Misfortune Priest said, "I understand!"
