Chapter 903: Chapter 610 Sibling Conflict_2

He took a deep breath, "Is there a possibility that she’s always been selfish and greedy, and the things she did for Xuan Qing were only because she worried that the immortals in the heavens would find out about her background, dislike her, and she would not be chosen? So this beast, before leaving, planned on ruining Xuan Qing’s reputation?"

"And that her being with Xuan Qing was not out of love, but simply because she thought this young man was dazzling enough to take her to the heavens and become an immortal ancestor?"

"You’re spouting nonsense!"

Zi Xian rushed in front of the throne, lashing out with a flurry of scratches against her brother’s handsome face.

As a member of the Purple-Bearded White Dragon clan, how could her own sister be inherently evil? How could the beautiful tale that spread across Hongze be so filthy and disgraceful!

"..."

Prince Zi Yang didn’t stop her, just turned his mouth up at the corners, tilting his face away, "Enough, I can’t win against you. But now that the West Dragon King has awakened, your plans obviously can no longer continue. Let’s talk about the Ten Thousand Demon Hall first."

"Whether our plans can continue is not for you to say; we’ll just have to wait and see."

Zi Xian instinctively snapped back, then quickly became anxious, "Right! The Ten Thousand Demon Hall... Shen Yi!"

She had almost forgotten; this matter was far from over.

With her brother present, it was as though she transformed from the dignified Yushan Dragon Consort into a flustered young girl all at once.

"I should go now."

Zi Xian waved her hand dismissively and swept straight out of the inner chambers.

Prince Zi Yang watched his sister’s retreating figure quietly, and when she was out of sight, he let out a resigned smile, "Shen Yi..."

He silently tasted the name on his lips.

No matter, it sounded, at least, like a man’s name, far more pleasant to the ear than the three characters of Ji Jingxi, and he might make time for a meeting if he was free.

But for now,

He reached for the various Jade Slips and scrolls on the table and began to read quietly, accompanied by the gentle fragrance of burning sandalwood.

...

In Western Hong, at the Dragon King Palace,

Qi Shengtao strode in with a dark expression, flanked by two Sect Masters from the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect. He took his seat upon the high throne, swept his sleeve with a forceful motion, and looked down at the people below, "Give this king a reasonable explanation."

The Qi Family’s fifth son shuddered, quietly sending a glance to his elder brother who had just returned.

Qi Zhaowen’s emotions were extremely mixed at this moment. The good news was that he had finally cleared his name of the connection to the Ten Thousand Demon Hall. If he had the strength to wipe out the Great Elder of the Yue Family, why would he need to resort to schemes to fight for the Crown Prince’s position?

The bad news... the standing of the West Dragon Palace in these lands and waters seemed to have become perilously unstable overnight.

What he had originally thought of as nothing more than a horde of rats, once the cover was removed, turned out to be a pack of tigers descending from the mountains, unstoppable!

If it weren’t for the assistance of the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect and the Yue Family, even his father might now be having sleepless nights.

"Those on the table are letters from various Sect Masters."

Zi Xian walked slowly out of the crowd, equally curious about what exactly had happened.

"Letters?"

The West Dragon King’s eyelids twitched as he revealed a fierce sneer.

These vile servants had now grown so emboldened they dared not return to report, believing that the West Dragon Palace’s might had waned and could no longer control them?

Once this matter was settled, it would make sure these servants understood the consequences of offending the West Dragon Palace.

"Let this king see who gave them the gall."

Qi Shengtao dropped his smile, his palm shattering the Arrays on the pile of letters, causing the papers to float up, suspend in mid-air, their written words visible to everyone.

Despite being penned by over ten individuals, the letters detailed remarkably similar accounts.

"A Black Robed Cultivator took the opportunity of a conflict between two tigers and, for personal vengeance, wielded a Golden Rune Mystic Knife, transforming it into a blade over a thousand zhang long to kill the Guardian Clan Elder of the Yue Family along with many disciples, leaving no survivors. He attempted to pursue the disciples of the Ten Thousand Demon Hall but failed and took the Greedy Wolf Star Map before leaving."

"..."

The West Dragon King fell into a deadly silence.

There were many possibilities it had considered, but it had never imagined that the one who slaughtered two of the Yue Family’s descendants was not the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, but a cultivator from their own Western Hong.

Coincidentally, it had just invited this very person in.

"Father, I truly didn’t know his identity! That’s right, sister-in-law knows; Master Xue has gone to ask sister-in-law..." the Qi Family’s fifth son collapsed to his knees with a thud.

"Where is Master Xue?"

Qi Shengtao forcefully suppressed the shock in his heart, knowing that during times like these, one must not panic.

Just how long had he been asleep, that Western Hong had transformed into something that even he found somewhat incomprehensible?

That was the Guardian Clan Elder of the Yue Family from Northern Hong. Even if he were to personally take action, breaking through that set of treasure armor would take some effort and the use of claws and teeth, yet an unknown figure had dispatched him so effortlessly.

Moreover, although he didn’t fully trust the message sent back by those Sect Masters, according to the description, after killing those from the Yue Family, that Black Robed Monk actually intended to make a move against the Ten Thousand Demon Hall.

Daring to offend both the Yue Family and the Ten Thousand Demon Hall at once, could such an existence really be cultivated by the resources of Western Hong?

"Sister-in-law, Father is speaking to you."

Qi Zhaowen softly reminded her.

"Uh."

Zi Xian snapped back to reality from her daze.

Although she had some mental preparation, when she truly discovered that all these deeds were the work of Shen Yi alone, her mind was still somewhat muddled.

Hidden within the plain words was a savagery beyond the Purple-Bearded White Dragon clan’s imagination.

More than a dozen Disaster Qilins, varying from the Late Stage of Heavenly Realm to the powers of White Jade Capital... it was important to note that none of these people knew Shen Yi previously. They came seeking revenge, targeting the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, not the Southern Hong Seven Sects.

Furthermore, the root cause was Shen Yi’s pre-emptive killing of their younger generation.

Just to be cautious, Sect Master Shen had taken drastic measures, leaving no survivors.

Zi Xian obviously found this style of conduct somewhat unfamiliar, completely unable to reconcile it with the image of a slightly cold but restrained and polite young man in her mind.

No wonder Jingxi had taken care to remind her...

Probably only the people from the Southern Hong Seven Sects truly knew how terrifying the real nature of the Sect Master of Nanyang could be.

"Are you listening? Where is Master Xue!"

Seeing the woman playing dumb, the two Sect Masters from the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect finally couldn’t hold back and scolded her in a low voice.

"What are you yelling for?"

Zi Xian massaged her chest and glared over, "He spoke foul words, so my brother took him away. If you aren’t satisfied, go to Mount Yu and ask my brother for him!"

With this proclamation, all present were shocked.

The two Sect Masters from the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect swallowed hard, not quite able to react.

Even the West Dragon King was stunned for a long while before he showed a look of surprise and said with a smile, "Prince Zi Yang is in Western Hong? Why didn’t he inform me in advance?"

With the assistance of this Crown Prince of the East Dragon Palace, plus the vast power he represented behind him, it could be said that, unless the master of the Ten Thousand Demon Hall was the Hongze Immortal, no matter what, they wouldn’t be able to stir up any trouble.

"Even if Prince Zi Yang himself is here, how could he take the Sect Master of my Infinite Dao Emperor Sect?"

Situ Fuhai’s eyes narrowed slightly as he stepped forward.

"It wasn’t me who took him, if you have complaints, ask him." Zi Xian rolled her eyes, showing no pleasant expression to the other party, "Oh, and he also said that besides Xue Yan, until things in the Ten Thousand Demon Hall are sorted out, you two must also be ready to be called upon at any time."

Hearing this, the faces of the two Sect Masters instantly darkened.

Without any hesitation, they reached for the Jade Slip, intending to send a message to Northern Hong.

Since the East Dragon Palace was being unreasonable, the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect wasn’t a pushover either.

"Don’t be restless!"

Qi Shengtao finally raised his palm and gently used his demonic power to deter the two men, "Everyone has good intentions, coming here to sweep away those evil doers. Do not let some misunderstanding lead to infighting..."

He couldn’t care less about the grievances between the East Dragon Palace and the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect; cleaning up his Western Hong was more important.

"Sorry, we didn’t come for the Ten Thousand Demon Hall."

The two Sect Masters put away their Jade Slips and looked mockingly at the West Dragon King, clearly seeing that this old creature was just trying to muddle through.

"The true perpetrator might just be within that message."

Back then, the Jade Slip had caused a great stir in Western Hong; the Cultivator wielding the Mystic Gold Edge had shattered the Dao Soldier of the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect’s Disciple, which was somewhat similar to the description in the message.

"As for the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, let’s leave it to the East Dragon Palace to deal with slowly."

"We take our leave!"

Situ Fuhai turned and walked toward the exit of the hall. Upon reaching the doorway, he stopped, "Once things are done, we will head back to Northern Hong. By that time, if even a single hair on Master Xue is damaged, the same actions the Yue Family would take for their prodigy, my Infinite Dao Emperor Sect could do as well."

"I hope the Yushan Dragon Consort will help pass along the message."
