"You mean, the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen and her followers can assist our Great Yuan?"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Yelü Chucai was full of praise.
"Although the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen's origins are unknown, her subordinate Hei Tong has managed to make it onto the list."
"It is even as famous as the 'Four Seasons' of the Azure Dragon Society."
"It's clear that the other crossings are even more formidable!"
Chapter 131 First Merit
"If we can lend Hei Tong a hand and gain his loyalty, then the other cross-dwellers will have a chance."
"If we can bring all six of them under our command, then the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen will be no match for us."
"With the assistance of the Demon Lord and the Six Great Demon Crossings, even if we are not as powerful as the Azure Dragon Society."
"But compared to the Great Qin, our Great Yuan will surely rise even higher in the rankings!"
How can I establish contact with Kurohime?
A glint flashed in Temujin's eyes; surpassing the Azure Dragon Society was indeed difficult.
After all, the Azure Dragon Society has a deep foundation, and there is also the unfathomable Ximen Yu.
But if they could surpass the Qin Dynasty, it goes without saying that it would bring glory to their family.
Just imagining Ying Zheng's angry expression made Temujin feel a sense of satisfaction.
253-In the universe, there is only one supreme god!
"The opportunity lies within this Heavenly Ranking!"
Yelü Chucai provided a detailed analysis.
"Hei Tong is a descendant of the Hei family of Yunzhou."
"The Seven Heroes of the Demon-Chasing Clan, under the guise of exorcising demons, wiped out his entire family."
"Even those with black eyes faced a near-death experience."
"The Khan only needs to kill or capture the Seven Demon Hunters, and Black Eyes will be eternally grateful."
"Recruiting them then will be a piece of cake."
Temujin immediately slammed his fist on the table and loudly gave the order.
"Pass down the order: immediately dispatch men to Yunzhou to thoroughly investigate the Seven Heroes Who Chase Demons."
"Dispatch the Imperial Guards and Protectorate Guards immediately."
"Whoever captures the purple-robed leader alive may make one request."
According to Black Eyes' past records, all of the Seven Demon Chasers except for the Purple-Clad Leader had died at the hands of the Demon Lord.
Therefore, the only way to please Black Eyes is to capture the Purple-Clad Boss.
Upon hearing this, Yelü Chucai immediately flattered him.
"May the Khan be wise and victorious, and subdue the Demon Lord and the Six Great Demons."
"Haha! If this succeeds, you'll deserve the greatest credit!"
Genghis Khan made a generous promise.
Yelü Chucai quickly kowtowed to express his gratitude for the great favor.
Little did they know that the leader in purple had a special identity.
He was the father of Xiong Ba, the leader of the Yunzhou Overlord World Society.
By winning over Hei Tong, one must become an enemy of Xiong Ba!
This road is destined to be full of thorns!
Inside the World Society, in the World's Number One Building.
"hateful……"
After hearing Hei Tong's account, the leader in purple robes had veins bulging on his forehead, but a barely concealed fear flashed in his eyes. The shadow left by the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen was difficult to dispel even after a hundred years.
"The one who cut off your arm was that Demon Lord Bai Suzhen?" Xiong Ba smiled disdainfully. Although his father's cultivation was higher than his own, his courage was far inferior. In his eyes, no matter how strong Demon Lord Bai Suzhen was, she was nothing more than a recluse who avoided the world.
"Don't underestimate them!" The purple-robed leader's face twisted as he stared intently at Xiong Ba. "Since Hei Tong is still alive, the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen and the others must also be safe. They're hiding somewhere in Yunzhou. I have a blood feud with Hei Tong, the massacre of her entire family. If she finds out I'm hiding in the World Society..."
Xiong Ba waved his hand dismissively: "So what if she knows? She's just a martial artist at the early stage of the Mythical Realm. I've learned my family's Blood Returning Technique, and my power has not only recovered but surpassed my former strength. If she dares to come, I'll make sure she doesn't leave alive."
"And what about the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen?" the purple-robed leader sneered. "To tell you the truth, although we haven't seen each other for many years, I can sense that I am just as vulnerable as I was back then in front of her."
"Is this true?" Xiong Ba's expression finally changed. The purple-robed leader was clearly stronger than him now. If he was still no match for him, just how strong was the Demon Lord?
"Do you remember the mysterious person who saved us from Dugu Qiubai's 'Sword Jade'?" the purple-robed leader said in a deep voice. "Although that person was able to rescue us from the 'Sword Jade,' he was no match for the Demon Lord."
Xiong Ba nearly cursed out loud. To provoke such a powerful enemy for the sake of the Hei family's meager wealth was truly a losing proposition.
"What should we do then?" Xiong Ba had no choice but to ask his father for advice.
The leader in purple sighed, "There are two options. First, join the Azure Dragon Society and serve Ximen Yu. That 'sword jade' has proven he has the strength to contend with the Demon Lord."
"Absolutely impossible!" Xiong Ba refused decisively. Despite the ever-changing political landscape and the emergence of numerous powerful figures...
To reunify the nine provinces is now an impossible task.
However, Xiong Ba's ambition remained undiminished, rivaling that of the three great emperors. To expect him to submit to the Azure Dragon Society was less desirable than simply taking his life!
"I knew you wouldn't back down!"
The leader in purple smiled calmly, not caring at all. "The second path is to find the mysterious person who saved us two years ago."
"Although this person is no match for the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen, he dares to interfere in the affairs of the Azure Dragon Society, so there must be a powerful figure behind him."
"That expert may be no less skilled than Ximen Yu."
"This method works."
After a moment's thought, Xiong Ba nodded and asked, "Are there any other methods?"
The leader in purple hesitated, his gaze lost in thought, as if he were trying his best to recall.
"There is an ancient legend in Yunzhou that a god of immortality lives in seclusion somewhere, secretly watching over the world."
"This person possesses unparalleled strength. If we can find him, we may be able to resolve the crisis facing the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen."
"Indra?"
Xiong Ba's first thought was of the self-proclaimed "this god," Indra.
"No..."
The leader in purple shook his head decisively, "The legend of the immortal god was passed down after Emperor Shitian."
Even Indra searched for its whereabouts, but to no avail!
"Such a person exists in Yunzhou?"
Xiong Ba was shocked, and felt even more strongly that Yunzhou was full of hidden talents.
"Wen Chou Chou, pass down the order to immediately search for the God of Immortality and that mysterious person from last time."
Wen Chou Chou, who was waiting outside the door, immediately accepted the order.
The massive machine of the World Society in Yunzhou then roared into operation.
"Bai Suzhen...you are not dead..."
Deep within the Ten Thousand Mountains, the immortal god gazed at the Heavenly Dao Golden List and slowly uttered these words.
"Now that you have returned from the Yellow Springs, I will see you off one last time!"
The one who understands the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen best is none other than the God of Immortality.
He was the one who most longed for her to perish.
This world is too small to contain two gods!
254 One Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate
Even late at night, the Heavenly Ranking was still being hotly discussed throughout the Nine Provinces.
The Azure Dragon Society becomes the focus of attention in all four seasons—who would have thought that all four of them would be such stunning beauties?
Ximen Yu brought four women home from a young age and trained them to become unparalleled masters.
All four stunning beauties have reached the supreme mythical realm, and Ximen Yu's methods are truly astonishing.
These four envoys, possessing both strength and beauty, are the envy of the world.
Meanwhile, the Daming Palace of the Tang Dynasty remained completely silent.
The various forces are locked in a standoff, creating a tense atmosphere.
The Heavenly List dissipated, and the golden light in the hands of the Taoist surnamed Sun gradually faded, revealing a book and two elixirs.
"So you are Sun En?" Zi Chu spoke first, his gaze scrutinizing.
The Taoist priest readily replied, "Your Highness is wise; this humble Taoist is indeed the one in question."
After saying this, he put away the "Taiping Qingling Dao" and the elixirs.
With the supreme Huangtian martial art "Huangtian Wuji," supplemented by Enlightenment Pills, Longevity Pills, and secret manuals, Sun En reaped a great harvest this time.
All eyes were on the slender Taoist priest, a mixture of envy and jealousy.
Empress Wu Zetian declared loudly, "Master Sun is a revered protector of the Tang Dynasty. If anyone dares to attempt to seize his treasure, the Tang Dynasty will fight with all its might!"
Her gaze swept over Zichu, Lianhuasheng, and Chuanying, the warning clearly in her eyes.
Chuan Ying understood immediately. Now that Xie Tiao's secret manual was available, there was no need to create any further complications.
The Qin Dynasty possesses the He Shi Bi jade, and now that they are in the Tang Dynasty's imperial palace, their opponents must have even stronger trump cards.
Cang Qu and Wu Zetian watched Xie Tiao's demise with cold indifference, solely to avoid the subsequent attacks from the Azure Dragon Society.
Chuan Ying remained calm and spoke lightly, "Your Majesty need not worry. We have come only to retrieve Xie Tiao's two secret manuals."
"The Dragon Head has no further instructions at this time."
"But if the Great Dragon Head is interested in Master Sun's things..."
Chuan Ying smiled meaningfully and said no more.
Zi Chu's gaze was cold and stern as he stated directly, "Chuan Ying, enough with the nonsense. Do you intend to fight me, or hand over Shan Wanjing?"
As the Azure Dragon Society gradually reveals its strength, the Heavenly Power Ranking of the Nine Provinces is once again causing ripples, and even the former king, Zi Chu, cannot hide his anxiety.
He was eager to take Shan Wanjing away so that he could use her to find Shang Xiufang and strengthen the foundation of the Great Qin Dynasty.
The He Shi Bi jade spun in his palm, waiting for Chuan Ying to utter a single word to ignite a raging battle.
Chuan Ying frowned, caught in a dilemma.
Just as the stalemate was at hand, a cold and aloof figure descended from the sky.
The woman was stunningly beautiful, carrying an ancient longsword on her back. The moment she appeared, it was as if a sharp sword had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, its edge piercing the world.
"Such powerful sword intent... Though not as strong as Wuming's, it is still awe-inspiring." Padmasambhava and the others were secretly shocked.
The monk trembled slightly, the nameless power of the past still vivid in his mind, yet he now felt a trace of fear emanating from this woman.
Zi Chu's gaze sharpened slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Who are you? Your swordsmanship is so formidable?"
Within the Qin Dynasty, only the Sword Saint Gai Nie could rival her, yet the woman before him was in no way inferior.
"Azure Dragon Society, Season Four, codename 'Winter Snow'—Lu Xueqi." Her expression was indifferent. "I'm taking Shan Wanjing with me. Any objections?"
Everyone was shocked; the Azure Dragon Society's Four Seasons had actually appeared!
Zi Chu snorted coldly: "Miss, you're being far too arrogant."
With the He Shi Bi in hand and the Qin Dynasty's dragon aura unleashed, even if Lu Xueqi's swordsmanship is strong, she will not escape defeat!
Lu Xueqi's eyes were as cold as frost, showing no fear whatsoever. She drew her long sword from behind her back, the blade pointing straight ahead: "Then let's try."
In an instant, the sword and the man became one.
