King of Creation
Chapter 1441: Chapter 1426: Scheme of Expansion
In the main hall of the Qingluo Sect of the Phantom Divine Empire in the Black Dragon Domain, Sect Leader Guoo Wanfeng, Elder True Person Bixin, and Elder Luluo sat cross-legged inside, with Sect Leader Guoo Wanfeng holding a bright red invitation, his expression quite grim.
"Bixin, Luluo, the Second Prince has sent another letter, saying he will personally ascend the mountain for marriage in a few days. What should we do about this?" Sect Leader Guoo Wanfeng said helplessly.
Years ago, due to Ye Zhen’s influence, Luluo’s own cultivation improved, and Luluo is now an elder of the Qingluo Sect, allowing the three to discuss equally at this point.
Upon Sect Leader Guoo Wanfeng’s words, Luluo hadn’t spoken yet when her master, True Person Bixin, spoke first, "Sect Leader, aren’t you aware of Luluo’s situation? Just reject such matters, why ask me?"
Hearing this, Sect Leader Guoo Wanfeng forced a smile, "Junior Sister, who do you take your brother for? But that Second Prince has repeatedly sent people and letters dozens of times, and I’ve rejected him as many times, yet he won’t give up!
The most crucial part is that he’s grasping the sect’s lifeline!" As he spoke, Guoo Wanfeng sighed deeply.
Actually, this was initially due to the shortcomings of the Qingluo Sect.
The Qingluo Sect relies on various spiritual medicines and pill refinement as its foundation and lifeline, which even though it expanded slightly due to Ye Zhen’s severe blow to the Phantom Divine Sect, still lacks aggression.
Compared to the Phantom Divine Sect, the Qingluo Sect is like a rabbit eating grass whereas the Phantom Divine Sect is a tiger that feeds on blood food, even if they remained dormant for a year or two under Ye Zhen’s attacks.
But after six or seven years of development, learning from past pains, its momentum has grown even stronger.
Furthermore, they have more thoroughly controlled domestic forces.
In this situation, they seized the lifeline, with many medicine fields and mountains being snatched by the Phantom Divine Sect, and under pressure from the Phantom Divine Empire, the supply originally intended for the Qingluo Sect was greatly reduced, not to mention the prices of pills and spirit grasses purchased by the military were suppressed by over thirty percent.
These impacts have left the Qingluo Sect feeling like it is difficult to sustain itself.
Somehow, Ji Chen, the Second Prince of the Phantom Divine Empire, and the most popular candidate for the next emperor, has taken a liking to Luluo.
Luluo naturally wouldn’t agree, initially dared not do anything, but after years of repeated pressure, the Qingluo Sect, this rabbit, has become more and more constrained and weak, unable to speak strongly.
Now, faced with a harshly worded letter, Sect Leader Guoo Wanfeng was unable to take it, leading to the current scene.
"Sect Leader, you know Luluo’s situation, this matter is absolutely impossible!" True Person Bixin said.
Guoo Wanfeng looked bitter, as he was truly troubled.
Were it not for his master’s dying wish, he would have thoughts of resigning by now.
Luluo, who was the most understanding, suddenly said, "Sect Leader, rest assured, I have already sent a Talisman Communication to Sister Feibai, if Sister Feibai returns, she will come over.
As long as Sister Feibai comes over once, this matter will be resolved."
Sect Leader of the Qingluo Sect, Guoo Wanfeng’s expression became more bitter, "Luluo, you sent a communication to Liao Feibai a year ago, if she could come, she would have come already!
Furthermore, according to our information, whether it’s Ye Zhen or Liao Feibai, they have been missing for over four years! Not just the Black Dragon Domain, the whole continent has been without news of them for almost four years.
Liao Feibai aside, Ye Zhen is a legendary figure, before this, every day and night there was news of Ye Zhen flowing into the Black Dragon Domain. But now......"
"Luluo, I advise you to give up this idea!" Guoo Wanfeng hardened his heart and said, "Youth is fleeting, Luluo!"
"Sect Leader, rest assured, if the other party forces us and Sister Feibai doesn’t appear, I will use this Talisman Communication!" Luluo pulled out a purple Talisman Communication.
"What is this?" Guoo Wanfeng asked.
"It’s a Talisman Communication for emergency contact with Sect Leader Guo Qijing of the Qiyun Sect, Brother Ye Zhen said upon leaving, as long as I send this Talisman Communication, no matter the matter, the sect leader of the Qiyun Sect will assist me!" Luluo said.
Sect Leader of the Qingluo Sect, Guoo Wanfeng, upon hearing this, said helplessly, "Luluo, I believe Ye Zhen indeed arranged this. But haven’t you thought, Guo Qijing’s identity is too sensitive.
If he comes to our Phantom Divine Empire to involve in this matter, he would immediately be besieged by the experts of the Phantom Divine Empire, and even the Sword Origin Empire might intervene.
By then, whether Guo Qijing can leave alive is in question, and how could he look after you!"
"This...."
Luluo, realizing this point, also felt anxious.
Suddenly, a bright and clear voice sounded outside the hall, "Luluo, rest assured, I can look after you!"
Upon hearing this voice, Luluo was stunned suddenly, looking back towards the entrance, and then shook her head, "Brother Ye Zhen, it’s impossible, is it an auditory hallucination....."
Murmuring as she turned back, Luluo suddenly froze.
Her beautiful eyes widened and she couldn’t help but wipe them, looking at the Ye Zhen who appeared in front of her suddenly, somewhat unbelieving, thinking it was an illusion.
Not just Luluo, even True Person Bixin and Sect Leader Guoo Wanfeng of the Qingluo Sect, were extremely shocked, wiping their eyes thinking it was an illusion.
Indeed, Ye Zhen appeared too suddenly.
They didn’t sense any spiritual power waves, and the light in front of them didn’t even change, yet Ye Zhen appeared before them.
"Silly girl, it’s me, come here!" Ye Zhen extended his arm toward Luluo.
Tremblingly, she laid her delicate hand on Ye Zhen’s fingers. Feeling the warmth on Ye Zhen’s fingertips, a look of disbelief rose in Luluo’s eyes, and then she plunged into Ye Zhen’s embrace.
"Brother Ye, why did you come back only now? I was worried sick!" Luluo cried out with a tearful voice.
Ye Zhen held Luluo, full of guilt on his face.
To be honest, Luluo has always been the one who thinks the most for him, never asking anything of Ye Zhen, allowing him to leave without any worries whenever he wishes to, and she even takes time every year to take care of Ye Zhen’s parents.
"Don’t worry, I’m back, everything is fine now...."
After a moment of tenderness with Luluo, Ye Zhen finally turned his gaze to Guoo Wanfeng, the Sect Leader of Qingluo Sect, who was still in shock.
"Sect Leader Guoo, that Second Prince dared to make a move on Luluo, it can’t be just a trivial prince acting on his own, right? There must be a deeper reason?" Ye Zhen interrogated.
Guoo Wanfeng, the Sect Leader of Qingluo Sect, looked at him for a long time before letting out a helpless smile again, "The name of Grand Marshal Ye Zhen truly lives up to its reputation; as soon as you returned, you saw through the essence of this matter!"
"I wouldn’t dare hide it from Grand Marshal Ye. Actually, behind this matter, the Second Prince Ji Chen making a move on Luluo is just an insignificant reason.
While you were away from the Black Dragon Domain, the Sect Leader of Phantom Divine Sect, Fuh Dongxing, after a moment of deep reflection, worked hard and gathered the entire resources of the Phantom Divine Empire, leading to a rapid advancement in Phantom Divine Sect’s experts and the country’s power, showing significant improvements compared to before your Eastern Expedition War."
With their strength and national power improved, besides trying to erase past humiliations, Phantom Divine Empire and Phantom Divine Sect also want massive expansion.
However, your reputation, Grand Marshal Ye, is indeed too great, without certain news about you, they dared not act rashly.
So, they decided to use Luluo as an excuse to force marriage, to test your reaction, or to probe for the truth before deciding whether to expand!
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have tangled over this matter a dozen times, and finally, sent ministers and Phantom Divine Sect elders to pressure the old man."
"However, after so many tests, they basically believed that you might have encountered an accident, thinking that you wouldn’t return for a short time, that’s why the Second Prince Ji Chen dared to thoroughly proceed with the forced marriage!" Sect Leader Guoo Wanfeng said.
Upon hearing this, True Person Bixin, who stood beside, immediately widened her eyes and stared fixedly at Guoo Wanfeng, "Why didn’t you mention this earlier?"
Guoo Wanfeng once again let out a helpless smile, "What difference does it make whether I tell you this or not?"
"Phantom Divine Sect dares to play tricks on this matter? It seems they’ve forgotten the pain after healing their scars." Ye Zhen sneered coldly, holding Luluo, and leaped onto the back of the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten.
"Sect Leader Guoo, do you have the courage to accompany me to the Phantom Divine Sect?" Ye Zhen asked.
Looking at the little kitten exuding a terrifying aura, Guoo Wanfeng hesitated, "Grand Marshal Ye, you alone, I’m afraid it’s inappropriate...."
"Hmph, you may be afraid, but I am not!" Saying this, True Person Bixin directly jumped onto the Cloud Winged Tiger King.
"Ah, since you all are going, what difference does it make if I don’t go?" Helplessly, Guoo Wanfeng could only grit his teeth and jump onto the back of the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten.
"Grand Marshal Ye, the Phantom Divine Sect is now very strong, you should bring more people...."
"Beside the Phantom Divine Sect, there are a hundred thousand troops stationed, training day and night...."
Along the way, Sect Leader Guoo Wanfeng of Qingluo Sect kept nagging, but Ye Zhen simply set up a Spiritual Power Silent Barrier, engaging in sweet whispers with Luluo, making Guoo Wanfeng jump with anxiety.
The kitten flew extremely quickly, reaching the skies above the Phantom Divine Sect’s mountain gate within just two hours, at which point Ye Zhen dispersed the spiritual power barrier.
As soon as the barrier dispersed, a team of Phantom Divine Sect disciples shouted angrily at Ye Zhen, "Who are you who dares to trespass the Phantom Divine Sect’s mountain gate? Do you have a death wish?"
Roar!
The Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten let out a long roar, causing the surrounding air to ripple like water. The team of mountain patrol disciples, still unclear about what happened, spat blood and fell from the low air.
At the same instant, the terrifying aura of the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten dispersed immediately.
Once the kitten’s aura spread, its immense power instantly triggered the highly vigilant Phantom Divine Sect to activate their Mountain Protection Array, one by one, disciples, elders, and True Inheritor elders all emerged from various mountain peaks amid warning shouts.
Ye Zhen, however, wasn’t in a hurry, waiting for their Mountain Protection Array to fully open.
Then, with a flash of the Acquired Spirit Treasure Thunder Light Vine behind his head, a flash of Evil Punishing Divine Thunder, red outside and black inside, struck towards the Phantom Divine Sect’s Mountain Protection Array.
In the next instant, Guoo Wanfeng, the Sect Leader of Qingluo Sect who was exceedingly worried, widened his eyes, even Luluo’s master, True Person Bixin, was dumbfounded.
