Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven
#567 - The Calm Before the Storm
Jun Wuxie had been contemplating how to ruthlessly exploit and kill a wave of Semi-Saints.
He had deliberately kept some trump cards for this purpose, but he hadn't yet had time to figure out how to lure those Semi-Saints out.
Moreover, even if those Semi-Saints did come out, it would be a waste of effort if they weren't clustered together. He wouldn't be able to kill many, and after exploiting and killing a few, he would be hunted down by the other Semi-Saints who hadn't fallen into the trap.
In that case, he wouldn't have killed many Semi-Saints, and instead be hunted down. He felt it was a losing proposition no matter how he looked at it.
If he could ruthlessly exploit and kill a large group, then even if he was hunted down, he would have the energy to escape.
"You killed so many Semi-Saints in Ice Cloud Tower that the Ancient Phoenix Sect and other forces hate you to the core. If you set up a trap, you should be able to lure out many experts. The Semi-Saints from those Dominator forces who are active now are just newly advanced ones, so there's no need to worry about them. The remaining ones are from the Ancient City of Gold, the Heavenly Purity Sect, and the Soul Hunting Hall."
Jun Wuxie nodded, signaling her to continue.
Yue Chenyu said, "Several months ago, Senior Martial Saint forcefully barged into the Heavenly Purity Sect and the Soul Hunting Hall, throwing their Semi-Saints in the Ancient Binhai Town, where they are still kneeling. They have been holding their breath ever since, unable to vent their anger. If they were given a chance to kill you, many Semi-Saints would come out."
"But if you break through to the Saint Realm and leave the capital immediately, they might become suspicious. Once the seeds of doubt are planted in their minds, even if they take action, not many people will come."
"Yes, that makes sense. To ensure they have no doubts, you can be the one to leak the information."
"Young Master Jun, look at this."
Yue Chenyu took out a walnut-sized bead, its material unidentifiable. Lightning runes flickered inside, exuding a mysterious aura.
"What is this?"
"Calamity Averting Thunder Bead!"
Yue Chenyu explained that holding this bead could ward off thunder tribulation attacks, but each use would cause the thunder runes inside to become dormant, requiring several months to regain their effectiveness.
"Good stuff! This item is exactly what I need. With this, you can..."
Jun Wuxie leaned closer and discussed the plan with Yue Chenyu in a low voice, exchanging their ideas and finally agreeing on a unified approach.
...
When the door of the Bronze Chamber opened, only Jun Wuxie walked out.
As for Yue Chenyu, she naturally concealed herself in the void and quietly left.
She had to maintain the highest level of vigilance at all times. If she was discovered by the Soul Hunting Hall to be in private contact with Jun Wuxie, not to mention the plan, even her life would be in danger.
"I hope you don't have other intentions..."
Jun Wuxie muttered to himself, watching the direction she left.
He chose to trust Yue Chenyu, but that didn't mean he wasn't wary.
He dared to carry out this plan with her because he wasn't afraid of her betraying him.
His trump cards were more than just the one Yue Chenyu knew about.
Returning to the small courtyard near the Peach Forest, all the women were there.
They inevitably asked about the trip.
"Wuxie, have they all come?"
Mu Xuelan was always concerned about the people of her sect.
"They've all come. I moved the entire mountain range where your sect was located here. They are currently settling in, and Mu Yuning is also there. They have publicly announced that they will no longer hold power and will hand over all authority to you. From now on, all decisions will be made by you, and they will not interfere or ask questions."
"In addition, I gave them the improved [Ice Muscle Jade Bone Art]. Now they also realize that their previous path was wrong and the cultivation method had flaws, so they will switch to cultivating the [Ice Heart Divine Art]."
After he finished speaking, he used soul light to form the text information of the [Ice Heart Divine Art] and the [Ice Snow Ancient God Art] and shared it with Mu Xuelan and Mu Yunxi.
"This cultivation method... even our bloodline inheritance method, the [Ice Snow Ancient God Art], is more perfect and refined than before! Wuxie, how did you do it?"
Mu Xuelan and Mu Yunxi stared at him blankly, their hearts filled with unspeakable shock.
How could cultivation methods be improved so easily?
If it was just the [Ice Muscle Jade Bone Art], that would be fine, since it was only a Semi-Saint level cultivation method, but their inheritance method, the [Ice Snow Ancient God Art], was a God-level method!
"I don't have that ability. It was the Martial Saint's work."
"Martial Saint..."
Even with the Martial Saint, they found it unbelievable.
The Martial Saint could actually improve a God-level cultivation method?
"By the way, how did you convince those stubborn Guardians to willingly move their entire sect to Great Zhou?"
"Do you want to know?"
He put on a profound expression.
Not only Mu Xuelan and Mu Yunxi, but even Ling Fei, Su Xiaoxiao, and Su Lan showed curious expressions.
Although Chan'er didn't quite understand what they were talking about, she also blinked her watery eyes and looked at him curiously.
Jun Wuxie stroked his chin and said, "If I said it was because I was too charming, and your Guardians knelt down before my unparalleled divine appearance out of worship and admiration, would you believe it?"
Mu Xuelan couldn't help but pause slightly when she heard this, and looked at him with a strange look in her eyes, saying, "I just don't know what means you used. Can you tell me about it?"
When she said the last half of the sentence, her eyes were quite resentful.
Although this man said this sentence in a teasing way, she knew that the Guardians must have truly submitted to him.
Being able to make people like them submit, the means used must be extraordinary.
The day before yesterday, he had her and her mother ruthlessly drive away Mu Yuning and the others, the purpose of which was to make them despair. This was one of the means, and there must be links she didn't understand.
"Haven't I disciplined you for a long time? You dare to blame your man in public?"
Jun Wuxie smiled and pinched her chin.
Mu Xuelan's face turned red, and her voice was cold and clear, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about in front of my sisters? You're so annoying!"
"By the way, Yunxi, I have something very important to tell you." Jun Wuxie's expression became serious, and he said, "When you were at the Cliff of Death, your realm reached the Half-Step Saint Realm. Are you now ready to face the Saint Realm Tribulation?"
"Well, it should be no problem. After accumulating for so long, if I undergo the tribulation recently, I have confidence."
"That's good. You will undergo the tribulation tomorrow. At that time, my incarnation will be with you."
"Ah?"
She was a little dazed and didn't understand what he meant.
Mu Xuelan and Ling Fei and the others also looked at him in confusion.
"You are undergoing the tribulation, but I want others to think that I am undergoing the tribulation. At that time, I will prop up the Chaotic Domain, pretending to be ready to resist the thunder tribulation, and you will hide in my domain. When the thunder tribulation descends, people outside will not be able to see the scene inside. Then I will let you out. During the tribulation, Yue Chenyu will enter the center of the thunder tribulation. Don't be surprised at that time, and don't overreact."
Mu Yunxi was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
The women looked at each other, but did not ask him why he wanted to do this.
But they all knew in their hearts that he was definitely preparing to trick someone.
They didn't know who was going to be unlucky.
"Yunxi, prepare yourself well. Xuelan, take the Mother of Ice Soul to the heart of your Ice Cloud Tower and place the Mother of Ice Soul under the sect to optimize the ice and snow environment there. You, the Tower Master, have regained your power, and it's time to come forward. I have to go to Ancient Eastern Wasteland City immediately to pick up Ke Qing and her grandfather."
"Okay."
Mu Xuelan and Mu Yunxi responded and then went to do their own things.
Ling Fei and Su Lan also began to busy themselves with handling the various affairs of the sect and the construction of academies in Great Zhou.
Jun Wuxie left the sect and went to Ancient Eastern Wasteland City.
Arriving at the Juba斋 in Ancient Eastern Wasteland City, he saw Qin Keqing sitting at the jade table of her subordinates, holding her chin with both hands, staring blankly at the pond in the courtyard.
Qin Zheng was next to her, constantly talking to her, but she ignored him.
"It's over, it's over. My granddaughter is really lovesick. That kid is a scourge, flirting everywhere, making my good granddaughter suffer, alas!"
Qin Zheng stroked his beard and was about to continue criticizing Jun Wuxie when he vaguely felt that someone seemed to be behind him?
He turned around to look, and his pupils suddenly shrank. The expression on his face was extremely wonderful, and his lips trembled a few times, saying, "Wuxie, when did you come?"
Jun Wuxie said with a smile, "Me? I've been here for a long time. Seeing Senior badmouthing me behind my back, I was too embarrassed to disturb you."
"Wuxie, have you finished your business?"
Qin Keqing's eyes suddenly brightened like stars, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Well, the matters have been resolved. I'm here to take you back." Jun Wuxie held her shoulders and said, "Have you been bored these past few days?"
"You're not here, and the sisters aren't here either. Grandpa keeps nagging in my ear all day long, saying bad things about you. I was so angry that I wanted to pull out his beard!"
She very naturally betrayed her grandfather, Qin Zheng.
"You girl!"
Qin Zheng was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, not even married yet, and her elbow was already turning outwards.
"Senior, it's not good for you to be like this. If you have any opinions of me in the future, raise them in person. What's the difference between saying that to Keqing and saying it to me, right Keqing?"
"Yes, that's right."
Qin Keqing covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Girl, am I your biological grandfather?"
Qin Zheng was so angry that he wanted to slap Jun Wuxie.
What kind of bewitching soup did this kid give his granddaughter?
"Alright, let's go. We have to rush back to the sect as soon as possible. There are still things to do."
Jun Wuxie sacrificed an ancient sword. The three of them stood on the sword and were about to leave when Mu Xueqing ran out: "Young Master Jun, wait!"
Seeing Jun Wuxie stop, she stepped onto the sword and said, "Can you give me a ride?"
"Are you going to Great Zhou?"
"Yes, I received a message from the sect. I have to go to Great Zhou to see the new site of the sect."
She looked at Jun Wuxie, and as she spoke, she seemed to recall something. A blush gradually crept onto her exquisite face. She quickly averted her gaze, lowered her head slightly, and dared not look at him anymore.
Jun Wuxie touched his nose, feeling a little awkward himself.
Originally, it was nothing, but when Mu Xueqing's face turned so red, he naturally thought of that day when she stripped naked and stood before him, offering herself to him.
Qin Keqing looked at the two of them, wondering why they seemed so strange.
… …
It was already late at night when they arrived at the capital of Great Zhou.
The city was still brightly lit.
Great Zhou was now extremely prosperous, a scene of thriving vitality.
Mu Xuelan left upon entering the capital, heading to the Ice Cloud Tower.
Qin Zheng also left the flying sword, expressing his desire to experience the nightlife of the Great Zhou capital.
Jun Wuxie didn't say anything. As a Saint Realm cultivator, there was naturally nothing to worry about.
Just then, he suddenly sensed someone watching him in the dark.
They were several Peak Saint Realm cultivators, watching him from a distance, extremely well hidden, with sophisticated techniques for concealing their aura.
However, his Intent of the Soldier and soul perception were too sharp, and he still noticed them.
He didn't look in that direction, pretending not to know anything, and returned to Mount Zongwang with Qin Keqing in his arms.
"It seems they are indeed anxious, eager to kill me. At the same time, knowing that my current realm is about to break through to the Saint Realm, they sent people to lurk in my Great Zhou, monitoring my movements."
He discovered that among those Peak Saint Realm cultivators, besides the people from the Soul Hunting Hall, the Ancient Phoenix Sect, the Golden Ancient City, the Pure Heaven Sect, the Saint Gate, and the Sky Opening Sword Sect were all gathered.
Clearly, the leaders of these forces had already communicated with each other.
Perhaps they had already discussed and agreed to kill him together.
Perfect, they had already gathered together!
"Hmm, I'm very curious, how many Half-Saints will you send?"
A cold smile couldn't help but appear on his lips. This time, he must obtain more essence blood from those old Half-Saints to make medicinal baths for the children of the sect, to strengthen their muscles and bones, temper their bodies, and consolidate their foundations!
