System's Super Sect Chapter 1458 - 1131: Arrival of the Royal Family Sealing King

Boom——

A beam of white light descended from the sky.

It pierced through the Sea of Clouds, fiercely landing among the Cyan Ghost Race demons, sending those surging towards the Sword Demon flying.

"Immortal Sect!"

"It really has arrived!"

"Is the Immortal Sect insane? Do they really intend to protect the Sword Demon?"

"The Sword Demon has killed so many people, including military and official ones; he deserves to be executed. Protecting him means harboring a criminal, doesn’t it?"

"Harboring a criminal is equivalent to treason!"

The Middle Realm experts who had previously retreated looked back in surprise at the sudden occurrences behind them, feeling deeply shocked.

The Immortal Sect is truly brave!

Next moment.

An elderly yet strong voice sounded.

"Elder Sword Demon, the Sect Leader says you are not only mad but foolish too, and it seems he wasn’t wrong. Would such a grand Immortal Sect really face calamity because of you?"

"Elder Wood Dragon." The Sword Demon stared in surprise at Wood Dragon emerging from the Teleportation Array and then spoke slowly, "I don’t want to involve the Sect in my affairs; others don’t understand me, but you, having lived so long, should understand me."

"Understand my foot, all I know is that living poorly is better than dying well." Having survived the previous era by chance, he’s never thought about dying, "The Sect Leader said, is killing a few military and government officials that big of a deal? Prince Zhenyou Sima Tianxuan is imprisoned in the Immortal Sect right now, isn’t his crime bigger than those few people you killed?"

"The two cannot be generalized."

"Can’t be bothered to reason with you. Now I want to meet this Demon Emperor of the Cyan Ghost Race, the Sect Leader said it’s stronger than the Demon Emperor of the Sky-Split Race."

With that said.

A massive cyan Giant Demon surged out of the water, causing the Hidden Dragon Pool to raise hundred-meter waves, fiercely hitting the dense forest along the shore.

Boom——

After breaking through the surface, its ghostly green eyes coldly stared at Wood Dragon, its human-like yet alien arms revealing ink-green claws.

"The Sword Demon killed my beloved daughter; you, Immortal Sect, want to protect him?"

Wood Dragon looked up and down at the ferocious Demon Emperor of the Cyan Ghost Race and then asked confusedly, "Haven’t I made my stance clear enough?"

"Well, well, well... Dragon Demon, this emperor truly wants to see how strong you are and whether you can protect the Sword Demon’s life."

The Demon Emperor of the Cyan Ghost Race was cautious of the Immortal Sect; if not necessary, he wouldn’t want to clash directly with them.

But now his beloved daughter was killed.

He had to step forward.

But not for revenge.

After all, he has between a thousand to three thousand offspring.

Standing up to fight with the Immortal Sect’s Dragon Demon was merely for the Cyan Ghost Race’s dignity.

Sweep——

Amidst the roaring sound like a hurricane, masses of cyan smoke suddenly erupted from the body of the Cyan Ghost Race Demon Emperor, spreading across the entire Hidden Dragon Pool and extending towards Wood Dragon.

This scene frightened the demons of the Cyan Ghost Race to rush deeper into the Hidden Dragon Pool, fearing they’d die in the cyan smoke if they were too slow.

And those Middle Realm experts, who had already retreated to ten miles away, hastily withdrew another thirty miles upon seeing the cyan smoke spreading.

Because there’s a story about the Hidden Dragon Pool, that a hundred years ago, a King-Sealing Expert led disciples to breach it. In the cyan smoke, all disciples perished violently; even the King-Sealing Expert suffered severe injuries.

No one knows what happened in the cyan smoke. After miraculously surviving, the King-Sealing Expert never mentioned it but warned everyone preparing to go to Hidden Dragon Pool to flee immediately upon seeing the cyan smoke.

As for the King-Sealing Expert’s advice.

They dared not get close.

Clearly.

Wood Dragon hadn’t heard of this.

So he plunged right in.

And directly revealed his Demon Body, disregarding everything, and charged at the Demon Emperor of the Cyan Ghost Race, as his Three-Colored Demon Power erupted and transformed into Three-Colored Flames sweeping throughout. The two demons violently collided the next moment, their mighty demon power shooting towards the sky.

For a moment, they were evenly matched.

But after several bouts, the Demon Emperor of the Cyan Ghost Race quickly abandoned this brute-force fighting style — because he realized he couldn’t shake Wood Dragon’s Demon Body. His claws, capable of piercing through a King-Sealing Spirit Body, couldn’t even scratch a single Dragon Scale of Wood Dragon.

"Don’t leave." Seeing this, Wood Dragon immediately entangled him, determined to maximize his advantage.

The two demons battled for half a day.

From above the Hidden Dragon Pool to deep beneath it, and then up to a height of ten thousand meters.

Those watching were captivated, instantly expanding the previous thirty miles’ distance to a hundred miles as it felt safest.

As the two demons stalemate, Long Yue spoke from within the Divine Shadow Army building, "Sect Leader, should we bring back Elder Sword Demon first?"

"Let’s wait a bit, there’s still a big show to follow." Pingping responded calmly, then continued to watch the battle attentively.

"Drama?"

Long Yue was puzzled.

The other elders of the Immortal Sect were equally confused.

Chen Xie, who was standing nearby, immediately spoke up, "The members of the Royal Family haven’t arrived yet, but they should be here soon."

Yun Liao was suddenly startled, "Sect Leader, you’re not thinking of killing the Royal Family’s King-Sealer, are you?"

"If they come knocking, then we can only invite them to die. Otherwise, their constant chatter is quite annoying."

Originally, he planned to borrow the hand of the Covering Heaven Tower to kill the Royal Family’s King-Sealer, but now instead of waiting for them on the battlefield, they’ve walked right into the trap. In that case, since he’s already in the Upper Realm, he might as well give the Royal Family a lesson.

This is also to show the old Royal Family ancestor, Jiang Heshan.

Even though he doesn’t know what Jiang Heshan is planning, his duplicity must have a reason.

With these words, everyone in the Immortal Sect fell silent.

They knew that the Sect Leader’s decision was not one they could talk him out of. Besides, even if they could, they were more or less unwilling to do so.

Because the Royal Family certainly had crossed the line.

However, after the Sect Leader kills the Royal Family’s King-Sealer, they must be extremely cautious when leaving the sect for future training.

At that moment, the situation in the Hidden Dragon Pool finally changed. The Demon Emperor of the Cyan Ghost Race was swept down from ten thousand meters high into the Hidden Dragon Pool by a powerful lash from the Wood Dragon’s tail. It was obvious that the injury from this blow was severe.

Seeing this, the various Middle Realm experts watching from afar couldn’t help but marvel and simultaneously erased their thoughts of killing the Sword Demon.

They were incapable of earning the bounty on the Sword Demon.

To put it harshly.

Even the King-Sealers wouldn’t be able to handle it.

"In the end, the Immortal Sect still has superior skills."

"This Dragon Demon, even the Cyan Ghost Race’s Demon Emperor is no match. Before long, the title of first Demon Emperor held by the Flame Demon might change hands."

"Demons have the Wood Dragon, humans have the Sword God of the Li surname, considering such heritage, it’s no wonder the Immortal Sect dares to protect the Sword Demon."

As the crowd discussed fervently, several streaks of brilliance pierced the sky, swiftly passing over them, heading straight for the Hidden Dragon Pool.

Someone with sharp eyes managed to discern the newcomers in an instant.

"Royal Family!"

"The Royal Family’s King of Wujie, Ice King, and one of the ten King-Sealers of the Divine Shadow Army, second only to Sima Tianxuan, Prince Zhenyou."

As he spoke, everyone’s gaze focused on the three figures. Shortly after, the air was filled with the cries of countless Winged Demons from the distant sky.

Hundreds and thousands of divine demons from the Wing Race carrying a massive number of the Divine Shadow Army followed the three’s path, heading toward the Hidden Dragon Pool in grand formation.

Upon witnessing this, everyone hurriedly retreated and kept their distance.

Under the watchful and bewildered eyes of the crowd, Ice King’s voice echoed across the skies, "By the decree of the Sovereign, wielding the Golden Scroll for enforcement, all bystanders should withdraw!"

Hearing this, the crowd was greatly shocked.

The Sovereign actually spoke.

To kill the Sword Demon!

If the Immortal Sect still intends to protect the Sword Demon, then wouldn’t that mean...

No one dared to continue their thought.

As the Wood Dragon considered lunging forward after knocking the Demon Emperor of the Cyan Ghost Race into the Hidden Dragon Pool, it spotted the sudden appearance of three Royal Family’s King-Sealers and the wielding of the Golden Scroll intending to kill the Sword Demon. Forced to stop, it reverted to human form. With a flash, it descended from the skies to stand beside the Sword Demon.

And used one hand to firmly restrain the Sword Demon who was stepping toward Ice King.

Ice King and the King of Wujie saw the Wood Dragon was indeed present, somewhat surprised.

The Immortal Sect truly sent someone to protect the Sword Demon!

Doesn’t that mean they won’t need to interfere with Prince Zhenyou?

"Is your Immortal Sect truly willing to risk everything to protect the Sword Demon? The Sovereign has declared, that those who shelter him share his guilt!" Ice King rejoiced, but his face remained cold.

Prince Zhenyou chimed in, "Wood Dragon, I advise your Immortal Sect not to mislead themselves. Although you’re strong, He Youyuan, today the Sword Demon will die, no one can protect him. Unless your Immortal Sect intends to become enemies with the Royal Family!"

With that, Prince Zhenyou produced the National Lord’s Golden Scroll.

The Golden Scroll is here.

As if the Sovereign is present.

To defy it, is the equivalent of rebellion!

The Demon Emperor of the Cyan Ghost Race, who had been thrown into the Hidden Dragon Pool, emerged in a ragged state, clutching his chest wound that was grotesquely wrenched open by the Wood Dragon’s one powerful swipe, "Wood Dragon, if you wish to protect the Sword Demon, this Emperor shall see how you intend to do that!"

(Ugh.

Yellow coded.

Not writing, not writing, I need to get a COVID test.
