Chapter 189: 188. It’s Good to Have Someone to Block the Thunder
Translator: 549690339
When they were chasing after Li Yuanlong, Yan Mingkong had disappeared for no reason. No one knew where he went and there was no news of him.
After that, whether it was the Elder Faction or the Young Faction, they all tried their best to find her whereabouts, but in the end, they found nothing.
The Great Empress seemed to have disappeared from the Divine Lands.
Although it was not difficult for him to hide his whereabouts with his cultivation and strength if he was not severely injured by Li Yuanlong, it would be difficult to confirm his whereabouts with the Demon Cult’s intelligence system.
However, there were no clues at all. He had suddenly disappeared from the world in an instant, which still made people suspicious.
Chen Luoyang recalled that strange blood light and guessed that Yan Mingkong’s whereabouts might be related to it.
It was not a bad thing for him that the other party had gone missing for a while. He could fight Saber Emperor Yuwen Feng without any worries.
However, he was still concerned about Yan Mingkong’s whereabouts.
Unexpectedly, he had suddenly disappeared and reappeared without any warning. He had even returned to the headquarters of the Demonic Sect on Ancient God Peak.
He reappeared in front of Chen Luoyang.
As he looked at the cold white-robed woman, the first thought in Chen Luoyang’s mind was actually…
Had she successfully broken through to the fourteenth realm, the Spirit Realm? Before this, before the battle with Li Yuanlong, the other party should have been at the critical juncture where he was only one step away from the final step.
He was probably only a paper away from the 14th level.
After the battle with Li Yuanlong, he had even used his cultivation at the 13th realm to defeat Li Yuanlong, who was at the 14th realm. Chen Luoyang and Saber Emperor Yuwen Feng, who were at the side, had guessed that Yan Mingkong would be able to pass that stage this time.
However, Chen Luoyang wasn’t sure if it would affect the other party’s breakthrough after the incident with the bloody light.
Now that he had returned to Ancient God Peak, did it mean that she had successfully taken that step?
Chen Luoyang pondered for a moment and didn’t probe with empty words. He
directly revealed his carriage and asked in a swaggering manner, “”He’s already in the Spirit Realm?”
His tone was casual, but he seemed to be a little interested.
Yan Mingkong’s voice was still as cold as ever. There was no fluctuation in his tone.”Yes, I am.”
There was no provocation or arrogance on the other party.
The only thing that didn’t change was that his entire body was revealing from the inside out, as sharp and unstoppable as before.
Almost all the high-ranking members of the Demonic Sect and those who were still on Ancient God Peak were present.
Hearing Yan Mingkong’s answer, everyone’s expression changed, but their emotions were different.
Great Elder Xie Chong’s eyes were filled with gratification and admiration. However, after the Sect Master and the First Head looked at each other, this gratification was replaced by a sigh, and his gaze became complicated.
Fourth Elder Chai Han revealed a look of joy.
However, after thinking of something, the joy in his eyes gradually faded, and his emotions became a little complicated.
The other elders all had mixed feelings.
In the past few days, everyone’s thoughts had gone up and down more than once.
The Cult Master had displayed his might in Luoyang City, while the Head Monk had gone missing.
It wasn’t easy for everyone to admire the Cult Master more and more, and when many people’s attitudes began to gradually change, the First Head returned.
Moreover, he was stronger than before.
A Martial Emperor at the 14th level had a cultivation similar to the Sect Master.
This made many people’s minds come alive again, but at the same time, it also made many people feel conflicted.
As for the younger generation, their thoughts were more unified.
Everyone’s expression was solemn as they stared at the Vermillion Bird Palace Hall Chief with vigilance.
Other than Yan Mingkong, the person who had the most relaxed expression was Chen Luoyang, who was sitting at the top and looking down at everyone.
After getting the answer he wanted, Sect Master Chen’s expression didn’t change either. It was as if he had only heard someone mention that it would rain today.
“When and where?” he asked casually.
Hearing this, the others became even more nervous. The two factions looked at each other as if they were about to explode at any moment.
Everyone from the Elder Faction was conflicted, but they had no choice but to fight back against the hostility of the Young Faction.
When First Elder Xie Chong saw this, his white brows furrowed.
” The location is up to you. The time will be after the battle between you and Yuwen Feng is over. If you were injured by Yuwen Feng, I will wait for you to recover,” Yan Mingkong answered calmly.
Chen Luoyang casually said, ” It doesn’t matter here and now. I’ll fight you first and then Yuwen Feng. It doesn’t matter to This Seat. ‘
He looked down at Yan Mingkong and said, “”You’ve failed twice in chasing Li Yuanlong. Do you still remember what I said on South Cloud Mountain? Take off your Vermillion Bird Palace Hall duties.”
The air in the hall was almost frozen at this moment. Everyone looked at the Empress Yan Mingkong nervously.
“Alright.’
Everyone was stunned.
Although there was a strong enemy outside and it was not appropriate for the Divine Sect to have internal strife, it was the Sect Master who made the first move.
The empress’s strength had improved greatly, but why did she seem to be like a fish on a chopping board?
Chen Luoyang looked at Yan Mingkong who was standing calmly below and had a slight understanding.
Although the other party was standing below, he had to raise his head slightly to see him.
However, Chen Luoyang couldn’t see any respect or reverence from the other party’s gaze. Instead, it was a completely level-headed attitude.
Right now, the other party completely didn’t care about the position of Vermillion Bird Palace Hall’s Chief.
His line of sight was at a higher level.
The other members of the Demon Cult also gradually came back to their senses.
Some of the elders heaved a sigh of relief.
The First Head had not lost his ambition.
Just like how the Demonic Sect fought the Outsiders for the Divine Lands, the battle between the two emperors would be decisive.
In the eyes of the Head Chief, it seemed that he no longer cared about the gains and losses of a city or a land.
After defeating the Outsiders, there would be another decisive battle.
That battle would determine whether the position of the sect master would be changed.
One battle would decide the world. The game before this battle would become a side issue.
It was just like the competition four years ago that decided who the new cult master belonged to.
After understanding this, no matter what the elders thought, they all relaxed. At least, they wouldn’t fight now.
As for the Young and Strong Faction, their expressions were all unfriendly.
In their eyes, this attitude of looking at the sect master at the same level was already disrespectful to the sect master.
“Gu Zhaozhao, temporarily take over the Vermillion Bird Palace Hall’s duties and take care of the matter. We will make the specific arrangements later.” Chen Luoyang instructed.
Gu Zhaozhao of the Vermilion Bird stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
“”We will obey Cult Master’s orders.”
The other members of the Demon Cult sighed inwardly.
The Vermillion Bird Palace Hall’s Vermillion Bird First Lin Dongyi was even stronger than the Vermillion Bird Second Gu Zhaozhao. In the end, it was Gu Zhaozhao who took the position.
This was already a clear indication that the Vermillion Bird Palace Hall was going to undergo a major purge.
No one could resist this and could only wait for the final result of the battle between the First Head and the Sect Master.
If the Cult Master won, then there was no need to say anything else. Everything was over.
If the First Head won, he would still have a chance to make a comeback after losing money today.
After removing Yan Mingkong from his position as the Vermillion Bird Palace Hall’s Chief, Chen Luoyang looked at him as if nothing had happened. “What’s your next plan?”
Yan Mingkong didn’t seem to care about what had just happened. He said calmly, I’m going to the Snow Plateau to see how big uncle is doing. I’m a little worried.
“Then why don’t we just go directly?” Chen Luoyang glanced at her. Did you come back just to show everyone that you’ve improved?
Should I give you a prize?
“I’m going back to the headquarters to get something, ” Yan Mingkong said calmly.
“Suit yourself then,” Chen Luoyang said indifferently.
Yan Mingkong nodded, turned around and left the hall.
Chen Luoyang, who was seated, watched as his back view left. Although he didn’t seem to care, he sounded the alarm in his heart.
The other party’s strength at the 13th realm had already surpassed the old sect master, Chen Hanhai, and also surpassed the current sect master when he was at the 13th realm.
Chen Luoyang was very suspicious that the other party actually had the ability to break through to the 14th realm before the age of 27. He didn’t have to wait until this year. It was only because he wanted to accumulate as much as possible that he had waited until now.
Under such circumstances, the long journey ahead of her might be relatively smooth.
His accumulation was too deep.
He had killed Li Yuanlong, who was at the 14th realm, with his 13th realm cultivation.
Even though Li Yuanlong had only just broken through, he was still in a trance, which was very different from the 13th level of True Form.
Moreover, according to the confession of Yang Lian, the former Xia Dynasty’s internal palace manager who had surrendered, Li Yuanlong secretly possessed a magical treasure that could restrain the sword path of the world.
Under such circumstances, Li Yuanlong was still defeated by Yan Mingkong.
Now that Yan Mingkong had successfully broken through to the 14th realm, his strength would definitely soar further.
It was good.
Go play with those monks on the Snow Plateau.
When I fully recover, at worst, we’ll just face each other head-on. Let’s see if your sword is sharper or my fist is fiercer.
Chen Luoyang also left the main hall and returned to his room.
Just as he was thinking about it, the surface of the jade pendant he carried with him suddenly lit up with a faint yellow light.
This unprecedented change surprised Chen Luoyang.
As the yellow light flashed, the jade pendant rang five times.
A message from the Fifth Elder, Tan Yunsheng?
The other party was far away in the Snow Plateau. This should be a special method of communication that he and the sect master had agreed on long ago.
This was the first time Chen Luoyang had seen such a long distance in this world.
He couldn’t help but wonder if Tan Yunsheng had already returned from the Xueyu Plateau and was very close to him.
If it was an ultra-long distance communication method, the treasures required would be extremely rare and difficult to promote. Using such a precious method must be extremely urgent…
Chen Luoyang muttered in his heart.
After he knocked on the jade pendant five times, the yellow light on the jade pendant instantly left the jade pendant and flew out like a yellow snake. This yellow light landed in the air and quickly spread out, forming a short letter.
“Devil Buddha Martial Emperor, complete palm technique.”
There weren’t many words, but the information contained within made Chen Luoyang frown.
The Devil Buddha’s successor at the Martial Emperor level cultivated the complete version of the Tathagata Devil Palm.
With such strength, Yan Zhao might not be able to win even if they used Hell Steps.
The Second Elder Yan Zhao and the Fifth Elder Tan Yunsheng were most likely dead.
The Devil Buddha’s successor this time was on a completely different level from Sinful Monk back then.
However …
It seemed like it was Yan Mingkong’s turn to consider this problem..
