System's Super Sect Chapter 1474 - 1142: The Death of Two, Shocking the Royal Family, Shaking You Country

Meanwhile, the news of the Celestial Nether King’s Life Blood Crystal shattering reached Ji’s ears, causing the entire Royal Palace to fall into an uproar.

King of Chaos.

King of Wujie.

Ice King.

Now another Celestial Nether King.

Of the seven sealed kings of the Royal Family, four have died.

The loss to You Country’s Royal Family is undeniably significant.

King of Chaos and King of Harmony and Sorrow stayed in their residences; initially upset about having no chance at the Sovereign position, but upon receiving news of the Celestial Nether King’s death.

The former was very astonished.

The latter was quite relieved.

The position of Sovereign of You Country was certainly meant for the Celestial Nether King.

Hence, his astonishment.

King of Harmony and Sorrow was relieved for bowing out of the competition, otherwise, he might have been the one who perished today.

"Blessings or misfortune, truly unpredictable. I couldn’t get the You Country Sovereign position, but I saved a life," King of Harmony and Sorrow sighed, grateful for the decision he made back then. "Someone, bring wine, I wish to drink till I’m drunk!"

Reflecting now.

Living is the most important!

What does the position of Sovereign mean? It’s nothing!

Unlike the two sealed kings, Sikong Zhuxing, upon learning the news, immediately went to the palace to see the Sovereign of You Country.

But he thought Ji would be furious, prepared even for a scolding, yet saw no trace of anger on Ji’s face.

"Sovereign!"

Sikong Zhuxing exclaimed in shock, but seeing Ji’s calm expression, swallowed the rest of his words.

At this moment, he grasped many things.

Things he only dared to speculate before.

Ji grabbed fish food in one hand, scattering it into the pond, teasing the demon fish in the pool with the other, calmly stating, "Chasing Stars, you yourself said, as long as the Royal Family has an Ancestor, nothing significant can go wrong. Why panic now?"

"The Sovereign’s reproach is correct." Sikong Zhuxing guessed that not only was the Sovereign of You Country not angry, but may even be pleased.

"Anything else?"

"Yes, regarding the Beize Domain’s war situation. Some ’stake’ intelligence, Endless Celestial Suspension’s eldest son Yi Luotian has arrived at the battlefield. Over the years, he’s claimed to be not inferior to my master, even surpassing him. But the Celestial Ranking places him below my master; he surely refuses to accept this, a confrontation with my master is inevitable."

"Order them to enhance defenses, recruit some people from the major domains for the upcoming war preparations. When your master and Yi Luotian clash, Zhetian Tower’s full assault might follow suit."

"Understood!"

Sikong Zhuxing said no more, exchanged a few simple words, and then left the Royal Palace. He understood too much from this visit and thus found no need to elaborate further.

Simply put, in one sentence.

Ji doesn’t want to abdicate!

The Celestial Nether King’s death is his welcome news, which is why, despite an Ancestor intervening, the Celestial Nether King was still sent with the Divine Shadow Army to overthrow the Immortal Sect.

After Sikong Zhuxing left, Ji spoke to the guard by his side, "Send a message to He Youyuan, have him delay the war. Ensure the war maintains a duration of at least five years. With the Celestial Nether King’s death, only Prince Longyang remains, which is no longer a concern."

"Understood!"

With those words, the guard beside him suddenly transformed into a green Winged Demon, disappearing from the Royal Palace in the blink of an eye.

After he left, Ji continued teasing the fish demon in the pond, murmuring softly to himself, "The Sovereign of You Country can only be me."

Simultaneously, after Sikong Zhuxing departed the palace, upon returning to the Inspection Hall, the first thing he did was leave You Country Capital.

With the Celestial Nether King’s death, the progress of recruiting those Six-star Influences who wish to remain neutral and observe must be accelerated.

Otherwise, once Prince Longyang collapses, all power under heaven will fall to the Sovereign of You Country, making his plans a mere fantasy.

Just as Sikong Zhuxing had left the palace, the update to the Celestial Ranking arrived as scheduled the next day, reappearing in the skies above various cities.

Yet Sikong Zhuxing merely glanced at it, but with that one look, he noticed his master’s rank had ascended to ninth.

"Master broke the realm?"

Sikong Zhuxing rejoiced.

This way.

Even if his master returns, the Inspection Hall will still be his.

For those reaching Half-Step Primordial Vast Realm, who would care for worldly matters? Naturally, they transform into Royal Family Ancestors, entering the Ancestor Mountain for cultivation.

But soon Sikong Zhuxing felt something amiss, just as this feeling arose, someone beside him exclaimed in shock, "Hall Master, look! Two have vanished from the top ten in the Celestial Ranking. Fu Tianxie at seventh and Jiang Heshan at tenth are both gone."

"What?"

Sikong Zhuxing hurriedly raised his head to continue observing the Celestial Ranking.

What he saw was shocking.

It wasn’t his master breaking the realm.

But that two from the Celestial Ranking top ten were gone.

"What happened?" Sikong Zhuxing desperately wished to pull out the Sound Transmission Stone to contact Chen Xie, after all, Chen Xie is the master of All-Knowing Tower.

He knows the most about the Celestial Ranking.

At the same time, the disappearance from the ninth and seventh of the Celestial Ranking caused a great uproar throughout You Country. King of Chaos and King of Harmony and Sorrow’s faces turned pale.

And at that moment, a battle report arrived at You Country Capital, causing those who saw this report to remain unsettled for long.

When this report reached the You Country Sovereign, Ji’s expression visibly changed from calm to shocked.

"Old Ancestor Fu Tianxie, Old Ancestor Jiang Heshan, both slain by Immortal Sect strongmen. Three million Divine Shadow Army reduced to only seventy thousand..."

Upon seeing this, Ji staggered back three to four steps, his whole body crashing against the hall wall, leaving many officials and military high-ups stunned and uncertain.
