The Old Ancestor, an expert of Half-Step Primordial Vast, was forced to retreat by Sect Leader Wen, who was only at Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm. While Sima Tianxuan was being dominated by Wood Dragon, he activated a Vein Sealing Barrier that weakened the Demon Race, but also himself. This allowed Wood Dragon to defeat Sima Tianxuan, and the King of Chaos, realizing the extent of the political scheming, decided to leave.

Swoosh—

A black shadow suddenly streaked across the sky above Divine Flight City.

Bang—

And then, with a thunderous crash, it fell outside Divine Flight City.

Upon seeing this scene, everyone in Divine Flight City fell silent instantly, and even the Celestial Nether King and others hadn’t anticipated this outcome.

Attack the Royal Family.

How could the Upper Realm Demon Ancestor of the Immortal Sect dare to do such a thing?

To speak of a minor offense, it’s challenging one’s superior.

To speak of a major one, it’s treason!

"Was it a King-Sealing Expert just now, thrown away?"

"Seems... seems so. It swooshed past me so fast I didn’t even react, I thought it was Sima Tianxuan who got swatted away."

"The one swatted away wasn’t just any King-Sealing Expert. A hundred years ago, I visited the You Country Capital and saw him. He’s one of the Royal Family’s King-Sealing experts... the King of Harmony and Sorrow!"

"Royal Family!"

"Damn that old sore leg of yours."

"The Demon Ancestor of the Immortal Sect swatted away the Royal Family. So ruthless, so ruthless! Lived for over a hundred years, and this is the first time seeing it!"

"Who hasn’t seen it for the first time? Ruthless, yes, but swatting away the Royal Family also brings great trouble. Bigger trouble than killing Sima Tianxuan. The Royal Family cannot be insulted, especially attacking the Royal Family. If the King of Harmony and Sorrow pursues it, that’s treason!"

While people in Divine Flight City were marveling, the Celestial Nether King was overjoyed and shouted, "Bold Dragon Demon, daring to attack my You Country Royal Family!"

After the loud reprimand, the Celestial Nether King’s smile vanished instantly, replaced by a furious look radiating anger.

"Prince Longyang, let me see how you will defend the Immortal Sect!"

Prince Longyang, witnessing the King of Harmony and Sorrow changing expressions with light-speed, said speechlessly, "Defending and such can be talked about later, but your smile just now was a bit too obvious. With you smiling like that, it’s hard for the King of Harmony and Sorrow not to stab you when he gets back."

"When did I ever smile, don’t slander me!" The Celestial Nether King secretly thought to himself, feeling that it was unfortunate; seeing the King of Harmony and Sorrow getting assaulted was indeed too joyous, leading to a rare loss of composure, unwittingly writing his emotions clearly on his face.

Prince Longyang couldn’t help rolling his eyes, then quickly transformed into a dazzling exit from the Domain Lord’s Mansion, stopping a thousand feet away from the Wood Dragon.

"I’m friends with Your Sect’s Leader Wen. You can verify by this. Please halt for now, Sima Tianxuan cannot die!"

The King of Harmony and Sorrow being beaten will indeed cause trouble for the Immortal Sect, but this trouble won’t be more severe than Sima Tianxuan’s death.

Because of him!

And seemingly an ancestor who appreciates the Immortal Sect!

Having said that, Prince Longyang displayed the Sound Transmission Stone. The Wood Dragon side glanced, and upon seeing the Sound Transmission Stone, immediately guessed the person in front was probably Prince Longyang. Hence, he didn’t get angry at the disturbance, simply reminding.

"I do not listen to anyone but the Sect Leader! If you know your place, please step aside. Otherwise, if you get involved, I won’t care."

After the Wood Dragon’s response, Prince Longyang’s expression suddenly turned unsightly.

Of course.

Not because the Wood Dragon wasn’t listening to him.

But because Sima Tianxuan’s screams were becoming increasingly faint.

In a moment of urgency, Prince Longyang could only quickly contact Wen Ping, "Sect Leader Wen, there’s a change in situation, Sima Tianxuan cannot die."

"If you want to save him, that’s a rescue. This naturally counts as a chance, are you certain to use your last opportunity? If he lives, the Immortal Sect will no longer act for you." Since there’s already conflict with the Royal Family’s ancestor, Wen Ping naturally won’t fear slaying You Country’s King-Sealing experts anymore.

"This..."

Prince Longyang was seventy percent surprised, thirty percent hesitant.

Inside the Knowledge Tower, Wen Ping, watching this scene, continued, "Your Highness, you’d better make a quick choice."

"Forget it then." Prince Longyang could only desist, as he really did not want to waste the third chance.

Especially knowing the Immortal Sect has two Heaven Unrestricted Upper Realm experts, each one surpassing Sima Tianxuan, and maybe even stronger than He Youyuan, Prince Longyang felt this last chance is better saved for later.

Sima Tianxuan dies, let trouble be trouble.

As Prince Longyang’s words ended, Wen Ping in the Knowledge Tower immediately put away the Sound Transmission Stone, saying no more. Because there was nothing more to say.

This result was anticipated.

But just as Wen Ping laid down the Sound Transmission Stone, the King of Harmony and Sorrow, looking wretched, with eyebrows full of fury, returned to the sky over Divine Flight City once more.

"Help me kill him!"

The King of Harmony and Sorrow naturally said this to the Celestial Nether King and others.

"Alright!"

"Here I come!"

Leading the shout, the Celestial Nether King then activated all Five Veins, seemingly about to assist the King of Harmony and Sorrow in slaying the Wood Dragon.

However, after the Meridian Gate trembled, when the King of Harmony and Sorrow approached the Wood Dragon within striking distance, the Celestial Nether King closed his Meridian Gate.

Likewise, did the Ice King and King of Wujie.

Bang——

The Wood Dragon’s tail flick not only shattered the King of Harmony and Sorrow’s Celestial Level Vein Skill but also sent him flying once more, turning into a meteor crashing outside Divine Flight City.

Prince Longyang was a bit surprised at this scene.

What a frail alliance!

One poke and it breaks!

At the same time, Sima Tianxuan’s painful cry abruptly stopped, his body becoming weak and powerless under the binding of the Wood Dragon’s demon power.

Although not dead, he fell unconscious.

A life, only half remaining.

Just as the Wood Dragon was about to deliver a killing blow, a figure suddenly appeared beside the Wood Dragon, raising a hand to restrain it.

This person was Celestial River Mountain!

"Give this old man some face." Celestial River Mountain spoke kindly, not rough towards the Wood Dragon, only using a thread of Primordial Vast Power to imprison it.

"Ancestor!"

"Ancestor!"

Celestial Nether King and others exclaimed in shock.

Then they bowed in greeting.

The people of Divine Flight City saw even the royal family King-Sealing experts paying respects, knowing the newcomer’s status must be above King-Sealing and quickly knelt to the ground.

A disheveled and even more furious King of Harmony and Sorrow struggled to get up, overjoyed at Celestial River Mountain’s arrival.

"Ancestor, save me!"

The King of Harmony and Sorrow placed all his hopes on Celestial River Mountain. Because aside from Celestial River Mountain, probably no one present could stand against the Dragon Demon.

However, Celestial River Mountain ignored him.

The next moment.

A white light suddenly descended.

Everyone’s eyes fell on the white light.

Because the appearance of the white light meant that someone else from the Immortal Sect had arrived.

Wen Ping walked slowly out of the white light, Cyan Lotus Sword already drawn, ready to battle Celestial River Mountain again at any moment.

Celestial River Mountain was startled upon seeing the Cyan Lotus Sword, hesitated for a few moments, then maintained a kind smile, saying, "Sect Leader Wen, why the hostility? This time, I’m here with no ill intentions."

Saying this, Celestial River Mountain released the Wood Dragon.

The liberated Wood Dragon quickly transformed into human form, carrying Sima Tianxuan’s corpse and silently retreated to the side.

At this moment, the King of Harmony and Sorrow’s hope was shattered.

He was very unwilling.

But before the ancestor, how could he speak recklessly, only able to whisper, "Ancestor, please save Sima Tianxuan, he is the pillar of our Divine Nether Hall in You Country!"

Celestial River Mountain glanced sideways at the King of Harmony and Sorrow, then scanned Celestial Nether King and others, afterward speaking displeasedly in a cold tone, "Seems like the calm, lofty days have lasted too long. As royal family, possessing the best resources, yet so powerless. The grand Divine Shadow Army of You Country, its pillar is an outsider Sealing King, how can you speak so confidently?"

The King of Harmony and Sorrow’s heart sank.

Finished.

The ancestor is truly siding with the Immortal Sect!

Celestial Nether King and others all looked extremely bad.

This was bad news for them. Because once the ancestor sides, whether it’s killing Sima Tianxuan or attacking You Country’s royal family, these are mere words. If the ancestor says not to pursue it, who dares to?

At this time, Wen Ping spoke.

"Senior Celestial River Mountain, do you think I will believe your words? Look beneath your feet, around the Purple Treasure Pavilion, that was all bestowed by you."

Wen Ping’s words were extremely cold.

Because he knew, Celestial River Mountain, who attempted to destroy the Purple Treasure Pavilion days ago, wouldn’t suddenly become so kind. There must be something unusual!

Celestial River Mountain lightly laughed, explained, "Sect Leader Wen, you misunderstood this old man. When I left that day, it was to avoid deepening misunderstanding, so after healing, I immediately came to visit Sect Leader Wen. Also, to express my friendly attitude as You Country’s royal family. You should know, this time the Zhetian Tower’s imposing, as the leader of You Country, the royal family naturally should unite all forces."

Wen Ping did not respond.

Because he didn’t believe it.

So it was pointless to communicate.

But Celestial River Mountain did not seem to give up, continued saying, "If Sect Leader Wen still doesn’t believe, I will take leave with them first, and surely visit with generous gifts another day. Afterward, if Sect Leader Wen has any requests, just convey them through this lad to me."

Celestial River Mountain pointed at Prince Longyang, because he knew, among the royal family, only Prince Longyang was closest to the Immortal Sect.
