Chapter 1253 - Chapter 1253 Chapter 13 The Brutality of the Clan School_3

Chapter 1253: Chapter 13: The Brutality of the Clan School_3 Chapter 1253: Chapter 13: The Brutality of the Clan School_3 The entire process flowed smoothly, as natural as breathing, showcasing the exquisite subtlety of her space escape skill to its fullest extent.

At the scene, all the Great Emperors and Sect Masters immediately shed their contempt.

It is said that laymen watch the excitement, experts watch the technique. Shadow Serpent Demonic Princess’s move may seem unremarkable, but it is akin to a high dive’s entry into the water, demanding extremely high control.

This newly advanced Void Realm witch seemed not as naive as imagined.

“Lords and Great Emperors,” the sultry, enticing voice of the Shadow Serpent Demonic Princess began, “we are here by order of the True Demon Palace Lord to retrieve an item.”

The Lord’s order? Retrieve an item?

Qi Hongzhao’s heart tightened once more, but as the host, he had no choice but to play along. “May the Demonic Princess enlighten us, what is it that the Lord wishes to acquire? Qi here will deliver it with both hands, without a second word.”

“Kekeke~ Demon King Yin Sha is indeed quite astute,” the Shadow Serpent Demonic Princess laughed seductively. “However, the item is neither in the Yinsha Sect nor in the countries of West Jin or South Qin.”

“According to long-standing intelligence gathering and analysis by our True Demon Palace, we have approximately pinpointed the object’s location. If all goes as expected, it should be within the borders of East Qian Country.”

With that, she waved her delicate pale hand and a large map soared out, suspending itself in mid-air.

That map was none other than a complete map of Da Qian.

However, this map did not cover the Sacred Gu Clan of the Southern Frontier, the newly explored Dala Desolate Desert, or the territories developed by the Wang family and Qingluo Guard in Longzuo County.

Clearly, this map was a product of over a hundred years ago.

But even so, one could see the strength of the True Demon Palace’s intelligence. After all, a mere hundred years was but a blink of an eye for the True Demon Palace.

“Ladies and gentlemen, you may have heard of the ‘Blood Venerate,’ a criminal once one of the top ten most wanted in the Divine Martial Dynasty Era, with unfathomable power and depth of resources,” the Shadow Serpent Demonic Princess briefly explained. “We are now fairly confident that within the realm of East Qian Country lies one of Blood Venerate’s old lairs, possibly even his final stronghold.”

Qi Hongzhao and the other two’s expressions changed immediately, as a surge of greed uncontrollably flashed in their eyes. If they could find the treasure left by him, they might even discover a path to further advancement.

Just as the strong feelings arose among them, a chilling, bone-penetrating bloody scent enveloped everyone, causing an involuntary shiver.

“Jiejiejie~”

Demon Lord Xietong issued the quintessential sinister laugh of a major antagonist. “This Demon Lord knows that treasures can tempt hearts, but remember, all of you have your own lands and businesses to look after. It would be wiser to suppress inappropriate desires for everyone’s harmony. It will also save me some trouble.”

Qi Hongzhao and the others felt a chill in their hearts.

Especially Qi Hongzhao, who showed a sincere smile, “Lord Xietong jests; this is an artifact demanded by the True Demon Palace, how could we possibly harbor other intentions?”

Indeed, all three were established figures; it’s easier to release a monk than to take his temple. If they were to meddle recklessly, with Demon Lord Xietong’s temperament, they might…

“That is good,” Demon Lord Xietong muttered, half-closing his eyes, indifferent, “This matter still requires the cooperation of your three families. Once successful, naturally, your deserving rewards will not be slight.”

“Thank you, Lord Xietong,” said Qi Hongzhao and the others.

“East Qian Country has a strong overall strength and is backed by our old rival, the Frost Moon Immortal Dynasty,” the Shadow Serpent Demonic Princess added, “Entering East Qian recklessly could lead to our discovery and an encirclement attack. If we become trapped deep within enemy territory, it could cost us our lives.”

“Therefore, we need West Jin, South Qin, and the Yinsha Sect to join forces, attacking East Qian from two directions, drawing East Qian’s main military forces and their attention to the battles in the west and south.”

“While seizing this opportunity, I will personally lead a team into East Qian to seek and unlock the remains of Blood Venerate’s lair and take whatever we can. Even if our identities are exposed inadvertently, with two battlefronts to distract them, we will be able to respond with ease.”

The plan was straightforward and seemed quite feasible.

However, the issue involved deploying troops.

Emperor Yan Qing and Emperor Yuan You’s expressions immediately became grave.

Da Qian was not easy to deal with, especially now that an Emperor’s son had been chosen and Emperor Longchang was counting down his final days, like a ticking bomb, they had no intention of provoking him.

If Longchang, in desperation, decided to go down with them, it could be catastrophic.

Moreover, deploying troops meant a substantial financial expense and massive personnel loss; should they come back empty-handed, it would undoubtedly weaken their countries’ power.

As Emperors, they naturally had their considerations.

Let’s not even discuss whether this is indeed the command of the True Demon Palace; even if it were, without sufficient compensation, who would bear the losses later?

Emperor Yuan You, slightly the younger and less patient, said, “Demon Lord Xietong, deploying troops is a grave matter and not something a mere promise of benefits can resolve afterward.”

The message was clear: stop trying to sweet-talk me with empty promises.

“Emperor Yuan You,” chuckled the Shadow Serpent Demonic Princess playfully, “we haven’t even obtained the item, how can we provide you benefits yet? Once we acquire the legacy of the Blood Venerate, we’ll be able to mass-produce Heavenly Human Level blood puppets. We can promise to deploy blood puppets to aid in your battle.ippines
