In the area of the Dry Intestine Tree, the bright moon hung high in the sky. Compared to the dark sky, the two seemed to be clearly separated.
Occasionally, clouds would drift past the moon, causing the two sides to look a little blurry.
It was like the undercurrent hidden in the palace banquet.
This undercurrent caused the water between Sealed Sea County and Grand Billow Domain to show signs of turbidity.
This was because it was natural for Xu Qing and Kong Xianglong to say some words. They had experienced the battlefield and witnessed all the changes that happened in Sealed Sea County. They were witnesses to all of this.
However, it was inappropriate for Zhang Qifan to say it.
Although he was from Sealed Sea County, he had not experienced all of this. It was like an outsider speaking of someone else's pain with grief and indignation. He even looked like he was deeply affected and had a common enemy.
This was too deliberate.
Obviously, the original development of the situation might not have been so deliberate.
However, due to the improvement of Xu Qing's situation, he stopped Kong Xianglong's anger, causing the situation to change. The person who set this up had to act hastily, forcing an outsider to say the words that should have belonged to Xu Qing and Kong Xianglong.
In an instant, a demonic aura erupted from his body. Wings grew on his back, and his body withered like a skeleton. He held the blood sword in his hand and faced Meng Yunbai with a ferocious expression.
"The two of you, killing is not the only way to solve anything.
"
"However, why did someone as smart as you act so clumsily this time?"
"
A dagger appeared in his hand, and he slashed it across Meng Yunbai's neck.
The Ancestor Emperor did not stop him. He looked up from the Qiankun Pot and looked at Lai Yali.
As for Li Yunshan, his eyes flashed imperceptibly, and his face was filled with anger. He flung his sleeves and was about to leave.
Fairy Liu Ling from the Creation Residence had an unprecedentedly solemn expression. She looked at the white water and suddenly spoke.
This was the reason why Lai Ya's eyes shone with a strange light. At this moment, his heart was in turmoil. However, the situation was not suitable for him to observe. Therefore, after returning to the camp, the Ancestor Emperor immediately went into seclusion to study.
This person looked exactly the same as Meng Yunbai.
He was one of Meng Yunbai's Lai Yas.
Meng Yunbai had clearly been neutralized, but the poison still existed, and it was extremely fierce. Therefore, many gazes fell on the Ancestor Emperor.
This was not his original plan.
Time slowly passed......
"It's not appropriate to make a move like that in such a situation!
"
The Ancestor Emperor didn't know exactly what had happened inside. Although he had guessed that there would be an exchange after the Palace Master had told him about Viewing Moon County, he didn't know exactly how it would be done.
However, when the Soul Shadow was formed, some people were surprised.
Thus, he raised his left hand and punched straight at Meng Yunbai's chest.
Furthermore, the fluctuations emanating from each face contained the will of the heavens, indicating that they had experienced a karmic tribulation.
After all, there were some things that needed to be done in secret. However, there were some things that needed to be done openly and openly.
When he arrived behind Meng Yunbai, Kong Xiang appeared in his hand!
Princess Calm Sea was expressionless.
He was studying the Qiankun Pot he had obtained from Meng Yunbai.
A moment ago, he was a bargaining chip, but in the next moment, he might be an abandoned chess piece.
"This person is not to be trifled with.
"
"As for the fact that the Ancestral Emperor killed Lai Yali, he did the right thing. He deserved to die for humiliating an old Nascent Soul cultivator!
I will report this matter to the Palace Master. Given his methods and their righteousness, it will not cause any trouble.
"
At the same time, a figure the size of an ordinary person rushed out of the crack in Meng Yunbai's body. He was holding a white-bottomed Qiankun Pot with golden patterns. The sea of fire had spread out from the Qiankun Pot.
"You f * cking bullshit!
"
Xu Qing was not the only one who understood this. In fact, most of the people sitting at the banquet were aware of this.
Anyone who violated this rule would have to pay the price.
"Kong Liangxiu, although...
He seems to have contributed greatly, such an outcome was due to his greed. If he had been a little more calm and held on for an incense stick's worth of time, he would have been able to wait for reinforcements from the First Prince. "
Is that so?
"
As for the two of them, their actions of not paying attention to the banquet and preparing to leave caused the people in the banquet to have different thoughts.
Meng Yunbai had come to visit, and Fairy Liu Ling had also invited him.
This ceremony was very grand. There were people from the royal capital reading the imperial edict. The true bodies of the Seven Sovereigns of the Holy Billow Clan had also arrived, as well as Marquis Yao's projection.
As soon as he spoke, everyone's hearts trembled.
With a thud, the head fell to the ground. After rolling a few times, it arrived in front of the First Prince and Princess Calm Sea.
The Ancestor Emperor's tone did not fluctuate much, and his expression did not change. After he finished speaking, he raised his head, took a few steps back, and turned to walk towards Fenghaijun.
Fenghaijun was the same. Although he was burly and looked like he was worthy of his reputation, he was actually a meticulous person. However, he still needed more experience, so he did not immediately react.
Fenghaijun could no longer hold back. The humiliation had reached an unbearable level. Therefore, with a low roar, Fenghaijun took out his command sword and sent a voice transmission. Then, he took a step forward.
However, at the moment of contact, a crack appeared on Meng Yunbai's headless body on its chest, and a scarlet flame erupted from within.
The First Prince picked up his wine cup and took a sip. His expression did not change at all.
Before he disappeared, he took one last look at Princess Calm Sea. His remaining eye revealed a pleading look, but there was no response.
"As for this person, he is a descendant of the Skylord Clan. Not only did he humiliate the martyrs, he even tried to incite chaos in Lai Yali. He has ulterior motives and should be a remnant of the Candlelight Clan.
"
A few people walked out.
At this moment, Meng Yunbai, who was covered in a murderous aura, sneered.
The sea of fire that enveloped the Ancestor Emperor began to visibly decrease. In just one or two breaths of time, all of the flames were sucked into Lai Ya's mouth and stopped by the Ancestor Emperor.
He did not point out any clues about today's matter, but he used his actions to tell others that he and Lai Yali were not the other party's weapons. No matter how much conflict there was between them, it was their matter.
The fire was filled with a shocking aura and was definitely something extraordinary. The moment it appeared, cold waves surged in all directions and rushed towards the Ancestor Emperor, instantly drowning him.
But in the next moment, the eyes of the straightforward Meng Yunbai widened. His neck turned red and blue veins popped out.
However, he did not show it on his face. Even when Lai Ya beheaded Meng Yunbai, it was the same.
This light illuminated the Ancestor Emperor's Sea of Consciousness. Although it was only a flash, his first life lamp, the little white umbrella, was missing a tip, as if it had melted!
This region included Lai Yali and it was guarded by the First Prince's army. He had military authority and Princess Anhai was in charge of government affairs.
But in the next moment, the Ancestor Emperor was expressionless. His body became translucent and he allowed Meng Yunbai's hands to get close.
This flame was really special. When the Ancestor Emperor felt how terrifying it was, he wanted to avoid it but he was still contaminated. When it burned in his body, it caused a change in the purple crystal.
The Ancestor Emperor's body was revealed as the flame disappeared. His expression was weird and his gaze landed on the Heaven and Earth Pot in Meng Yunbai's hand. An undetectable glow flashed in his eyes.
As for the remaining part of Leya, with a wave of the Ancestral Emperor's hand, it turned pitch-black at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the end, it turned into a white shadow, emitting a cold and evil aura, and floated behind Leya.
Zhang Qifan's eyes were deep and he smiled.
His killing intent spread out and he stepped out. He was as fast as lightning as he charged towards Li Yunshan.
"Don't attack!
"
Lai Ya's body was also melting.
The First Prince narrowed his eyes. His hand that was holding the wine cup paused and he fell into deep thought. Soon, his face sank and his eyes turned cold.
The moment he appeared, he immediately took out a large amount of antidote pills and swallowed them. His eyes were cold as he looked at the Ancestor Emperor who was shrouded in flames. Just as he was about to speak, his expression changed again.
After all, Luo Jingsong needed stability. That was one of the reasons.
The game between the royal family was bloody and it could turn hostility into friendship. Those who were caught in the middle usually didn't have a good ending.
Feng Haijun looked at Lai Ya. The Ancestor Emperor was expressionless as if he didn't hear Li Yunshan's words. He turned around and walked out.
There was no suspense in the situation of two against one. In the blink of an eye, Lai Yali spat out blood and the blood sword in his hand collapsed. He staggered and fell beside the Ancestor Emperor and Feng Haijun.
Instantly, the killing intent on his body became even more intense. The muscles all over his body bulged, and countless ferocious veins appeared.
His bloodline talent gave him a boost to his physical body.
His eyes turned cold. As a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, he couldn't be humiliated. That was his bottom line and also Luo Jingsong's reverse scale.
The Ancestor Emperor's body could pass through matter in his eerie state. His speed didn't decrease at all. In a flash, he went straight for Meng Yunbai.
Then, the answer was obvious.
However, before he could say anything, white blood flowed out from his orifices. His tongue and ears fell and turned into white water. A whimper came from his throat. It was a ghastly sight. His body rotted in the blink of an eye.
Everything would continue to develop according to the plan of the one who set it up.
However, it was different now.
The banquet was soon filled with laughter again as if nothing had happened. Only the white blood on the ground attracted people's attention and turned into ripples in their hearts.
Just as he was about to speak, the Ancestor Emperor's figure merged into nothingness. He silently appeared behind Meng Yunbai's tall body like a ghost.
"That …"
The Ancestor Emperor looked up at the sky.
In the sky, he saw the seven Sovereigns of the Holy Billow Tribe. Behind the seven Sovereigns, there was a blurry figure that seemed to support the heavens and earth. He could not see its head or its feet. It seemed to be infinitely large and omnipresent.
The moment he held Lai Yali down, the Ancestor Emperor took a step forward. He was so fast that he instantly appeared in front of Meng Yunbai, who was emitting a powerful aura.
He raised his left hand at the same time and grabbed. It was as if he wanted to grab with both hands to form a tearing force.
During this period, the Ancestor Emperor and Fenghai County stayed in Luo Jingsong's camp and didn't go out.
At this moment, with the eruption of his Qi and blood, his body expanded to almost twenty feet tall. His arm was as thick as the Ancestor Emperor's waist. He grabbed the Ancestor Emperor's outstretched arm.
As such, he chose to take a step back when it came to the ownership of the eight states. Although he didn't give a time limit, he expressed his attitude.
With a roar, Meng Yunbai attacked. Li Yunshan turned his head and released his killing intent. He raised his left hand and grabbed at the air, pulling out a blood-colored sword. His right hand formed a seal and pressed on his glabella.
This was his first Heavenly Demon Body.
At this moment, the ceremony began. The Ancestor Emperor and the others also chose to return to Fenghai County.
The military and politics in the Deep Blue Territory were separated because of Princess Anhai's appearance.
It didn't matter if the other party was a descendant of the Heavenly Sky Emperor. At this moment, the Ancestor Emperor had the intention to kill.
Fenghai County frowned. The Ancestor Emperor ignored him and continued to walk out. He felt that this was a farce. The methods of the person who set this up were very crude.
We know that Meng Yunbai won't die.
This was what Lai Yali said when she found out about the banquet.
Zhang Qifan's voice rang in Lea's ears.
After a long while, the First Prince smiled and said angrily.
Even the fight here attracted the attention of the outside world. Many guards rushed in from outside the hall.
However, the Ancestor Emperor pressed his hand on Fenghai County's shoulder.
However, the Ancestor Emperor didn't let his guard down. After a slash, the dagger in his hand slashed at Meng Yunbai's headless body.
The name of the Great Sacred Wave Territory didn't change. It was just that the territory was only half of its original size. The remaining part was named the Deep Blue Territory.
Quickly and cleanly, the head flew!
The Great Sacred Wave Tribe's return ceremony was held here.
At that moment, eight people rushed out from the crowd at the banquet. They were so fast that they formed afterimages.
They went straight for Li Yunshan.
"Royal Sister, I've set up the stage for you. So you wanted to perform that trick for me to see.
"
The Ancestral Emperor felt as if he had met a deity, but it wasn't exactly the same. It's hard for me to describe it.
He grabbed nothing!
The Ancestor Emperor clenched his fist. Kong Xiang immediately let out a shrill cry and collapsed. The Heavenly Fate within flowed into the Ancestor Emperor's body and was nourished.
"First Prince, can you return Luo Jingsong's eight prefectures?
"
However, his reaction was extremely quick. He glared at the incoming illusionary figure of the Progenitor Emperor and let out a roar.
He understood the situation now. He knew that Luo Jingsong was being used to test the First Prince. He wasn't willing to participate.
Great panic rose in his heart. His breathing became hurried. He circulated his cultivation to suppress it. He looked back at the First Prince and Princess Anhai, as though seeking help.
On the first day, the Great Sacred Wave Tribe's return ceremony began.
"I killed this person because he didn't respect the heroic souls of the human race. The old Nascent Soul had served the human race his entire life to seal the sea. His sacrifice is lamented by the Human Emperor. He will be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple and enjoy the incense of the human race.
"
"Balance!
"
At the same time, Viewing Moon County, which Luo Jingsong had secretly taken over, was successfully handed over to the Deep Blue Region.
When Meng Yunbai saw this, he heaved a sigh of relief. His eyes were cold as he glanced at the Ancestor Emperor and was about to retreat.
The poison in his body was also erupting. Soon, the head turned into white water.
The First Prince smiled. Princess Anhai lowered her gaze slightly.
As for the impact this would have on Sealing Sea County, the person who set this up clearly didn't care.
Meng Yunbai's eyes narrowed. The Ancestor Emperor's speed made him wary. The aura he emitted made him even more vigilant. However, he wasn't afraid at all. With a sinister smile, his Qi and blood erupted, forming a blood-red mist that rushed into the phantom behind him.
As for Li Yunshan, his expression was calm. It was obvious what he was thinking. At this moment, he returned to his seat and continued drinking.
The Ancestor Emperor's expression was intense. He walked step by step to the spot where Meng Yunbai had turned into white water. He didn't mind the filth and took out the Qiankun Gourd from the bloody water. After putting it away, he bowed to the First Prince and Princess Anhai.
The moment Meng Yunbai's words left his mouth, Leya, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped in his tracks. His gaze instantly turned gloomy and cold. Beside him, Feng Haijun's hair stood on end as he abruptly turned his head and glared at Meng Yunbai.
They didn't think much of Lea's method of plundering Kong Xiang. It wasn't that there weren't similar methods. Even poison was different.
That was a choice made by the Palace Lord and the First Prince.
His flesh fell off one after another. After seven or eight breaths, Meng Yunbai's entire body turned into white water.
That was their common understanding. As for Lai Yali's death, they didn't care. Other people's troubles had nothing to do with them.
The Ancestor Emperor stood up. Kong Xiang's aura erupted, forming a storm. A huge phantom appeared behind him. It was clad in battle armor. The moment it appeared, a baleful aura surged.
The surrounding people were also solemn. They had a clearer understanding of the Ancestor Emperor.
This scene caused the expressions of the surrounding people to change drastically.
They were mainly studying the flames contained in it.
The First Prince's eyes shone with a strange light. Princess Calm Sea also looked at Lea for the first time.
"There are still some rebels in the Eight Prefectures. Once they're all cleaned up, Luo Jingsong can take over.
"
This was the might of a Spirit.
Meng Yunbai's expression changed. Just as he was about to take out another antidote, his body instinctively trembled. Then, his entire body turned greenish-white again.
The spearhead of all this was clearly … targeting the Seventh Prince.
However, in the blink of an eye, a golden radiance flashed. The Vajra Sect's Patriarch controlled the fishbone. It suddenly appeared and stabbed toward the blood sea and the iron-blooded figure.
Just as everyone's gaze followed Lea to the door, the Ancestor Emperor suddenly stopped. He turned to look at the First Prince. After some thought, he spoke.
Immediately, the iron-blooded figure behind him erupted with red light. It left Meng Yunbai's body and walked toward Lea.
"Poison of the Divine Curse!
"
The First Prince suggested this, and Princess Calm Sea agreed.
The sharpness of the fishbone was irresistible. Whether it was the blood sea or the iron-blooded figure, they were instantly pierced through.
"You can't neutralize my poison.
"
Those who believed in it were equivalent to handing the initiative to the speaker.
Lai Yali, in particular, looked at the Ancestor Emperor with a stunned and wary gaze.
The head's eyes were still open. They were filled with fear and disbelief. Even in death, he could not imagine how his head and body could be split in half in an instant despite the fact that their cultivation levels were about the same and he had the support of his body.
"Although the Luo Family has declined, Patriarch Tianhou's cultivation method has been passed down. It's called the Xuantian Rhythm Technique. Every time you shed your shell, you'll receive more support from your body.
"
Lai Yali was currently in the False Nascent Soul stage. She could break through in a few months. Hence, it was not suitable for her to fight Meng Yunbai, who was a Tribulation of Kong Xiang.
However, the Ancestor Emperor rejected them. On one hand, he did not have the time. On the other hand, he did not want to be involved in the matters of the Imperial Capital.
The Ancestor Emperor ignored them. At this moment, many people around stood up and tried to stop them.
Meng Yunbai's expression changed. He knew that things were not good. He wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
"Spirit Accumulation … the rope cannot be named. It returns to nothingness. There is no such thing as formless, no such thing as nothingness. There is no such thing as confusion.
You can't see the head and you can't see the back.
"
However, he could not directly refuse the Ancestor Emperor's inquiry. After all, the Ancestor Emperor had defined Meng Yunbai's actions as instigation, and this was not what he wanted.
"After Feng Haisheng and I returned, we reported this matter to Kong Xianglong. His judgment is the same as ours, and he can see more clearly.
The Ancestor Emperor cupped his fists and turned to leave with Lai Yali. From the moment we attacked until now, Feng Haisheng and I did not even look at Li Yunshan.
At the same time, we also told everyone that there was a price to pay for offending Luo Jingsong's reverse scale.
At the ceremony, Kong Xianglong said with a heavy voice. His expression was filled with emotion.
The First Prince was the only one left in the spacious hall. His expression was intense, and he drank a lot of wine. Then he began to laugh to himself.
The red light formed an illusory sea of blood that pressed down on the Ancestor Emperor.
It has nothing to do with us.
Lai Yali's body shook violently. Her eyes were filled with shock as she spat out a mouthful of blood. As she staggered forward, her body was visibly black. Many parts of her body were rotting.
When the Ancestor Emperor said that, the First Prince fell silent. Princess Calm Sea revealed an unfathomable smile. She picked up her wine cup and took a sip.
"He can't blame anyone for his death!"
"
"Impudent!"
"
However, Leya knew that there would be many obstacles if he wanted to kill someone here. Hence, the only way was to end the battle quickly.
The imperial edict gave Marquis Yao extremely high praise and fame. It even bestowed upon his ancestor the title of Grand Duke of Holy Billow.
When he appeared, the sky changed colors and the clouds surged. The entire Ten Intestines Tree area became extremely oppressive.
There were seventeen marks on the armor that looked like totems. Each mark was Meng Yunbai's face.
"It seems like the First Prince deliberately invited us here, other than to participate in the Holy Billow Race's homecoming ceremony. He probably wants to see the true purpose of Princess Calm Sea's sudden visit."
"
However, something happened before they left. The First Prince delayed returning the eight states that belonged to Luo Jingsong. At the same time, he gave Luo Jingsong seven states, giving him eleven states.
The banquet began very late when Princess Calm Sea got up to rest.
Even though he had praised the First Prince, language was one of the most unfathomable things in the world.
Using the opening, the Ancestor Emperor's eerie body burst forth with speed. In the blink of an eye, he passed through Meng Yunbai's body.
The purple crystal actually released a suction force that absorbed the flames that fused into its body. Following that, there seemed to be a faint beam of light.
It emanated from within.
As for Li Yunshan, who was beside Feng Hai County, the Ancestor Emperor ignored him and was extremely cold.
However, he could more or less discern the future from the imperial edict.
As for Marquis Yao of the Holy Billow Race, he didn't stay for long. After listening to the imperial edict, his body dissipated.
Even time and space appeared to be in disorder in that short period of time. And that was only a projection of Yunshen.
