Shocking World War Emperor
Chapter 410 Great Xia Trembles

Chapter 410: Chapter 410 Great Xia Trembles

"Father, I’ll go check it out."

Xia Biluo spoke.

He must investigate this matter thoroughly.

Anyone who can master the Stellar Blade Realm is a top powerhouse of the Primordial Pill Realm’s Ninth Layer.

Even for him, it wasn’t until he reached the Sixth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm and received guidance from his father that he truly attained this level.

And yet, Ling Chen is only at the Fourth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm.

His talent in swordsmanship is even higher than mine!

What’s even more terrifying is that just two to three months ago, Ling Chen was only at the First Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm.

To rise three levels in such a short time, even he, the possessor of the Sacred Body, couldn’t do it.

"Mhm."

Xia Jiuyou nodded and said, "Report back to me after you’ve thoroughly investigated it."

"Yes."

Xia Biluo took his leave.

Only Xia Jiuyou and the State Preceptor remained in the grand hall.

"What’s the situation?"

Xia Jiuyou asked in a cold voice, "How did this worm grow so quickly?"

"No need to worry, Your Majesty."

The State Preceptor, however, said with a smile, "His power is not really that strong right now. Dealing with him will still be a piece of cake for us."

"His power is now comparable to the Eighth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm? How can I not be worried?"

Xia Jiuyou said angrily.

"Your Majesty!"

The State Preceptor said with a smile, "Don’t forget, we have his father in our hands. Moreover, his strength, while formidable to outsiders, is but a slightly larger grasshopper in our eyes, incapable of stirring up any waves!"

Hearing this, Xia Jiuyou’s anger subsided somewhat.

He himself was at the Palace Mansion Realm, and the State Preceptor was a high-ranking Divine Thought Master.

Dealing with Ling Chen would be a foregone conclusion if both of them took action.

"What about his investigation into his physique?"

Xia Jiuyou asked.

The State Preceptor’s smile faded as he responded, "His physique is likely not the Sacred Body, but rather, it closely resembles the top-notch Super Spiritual Body known as the Dark Spiritual Body!"

"The Dark Spiritual Body?"

Xia Jiuyou frowned and said, "His father is a Sacred Body! Didn’t he inherit the qualities of Ling Tianxing?"

"Not all offspring of a Sacred Body are Sacred Bodies, Your Majesty!"

The State Preceptor said, "It’s also highly possible for them to manifest as top-notch Super Spiritual Bodies!"

"If he’s not a Sacred Body, then kill him quickly. If this kid grows up, he might end up causing us considerable trouble."

Xia Jiuyou said with a chilling voice.

The State Preceptor shook his head, "Not so fast. This kid is not only a Spiritual Power Practitioner but also a Divine Thought Master. You should know, Your Majesty, I am not far from breaking through to become a King Grade Divine Thought Master. So, I want to take action when he becomes a high-ranking Divine Thought Master."

After pondering for a moment, Xia Jiuyou said, "During this period, keep a closer watch on this worm. I don’t want any unsightly trouble because of this."

"Yes."

The State Preceptor hurriedly nodded in agreement.

"By the way, Liu Qingcang has appeared in the King City recently, and this Ling Chen seems to be his disciple."

The State Preceptor revealed another piece of news.

"Liu Qingcang?"

Xia Jiuyou smiled faintly and said, "This guy, he’s not dead yet? But having been struck by my Sword Qi, I guess he can’t possibly advance further, right?"

"Your Majesty is correct."

The State Preceptor nodded, "He is still at the Ninth Layer level."

"Mhm."

Xia Jiuyou said with a smile, "Then there’s nothing to fear!"

"Additionally, regarding the matter with Ling Chen, should I inform His Highness?"

The State Preceptor asked.

After contemplating for a short while, Xia Jiuyou said, "There’s no rush. Biluo is talented but excels in controlling subordinates. We’ll talk about it later."

"Understood."

The State Preceptor nodded and said, "Then, how should we deal with Ye Fan’s death at the hands of Ling Chen? Your cousin Xia Qingshan didn’t deal with Ye Fan, probably waiting for your directive."

"Dead? What’s there to deal with?"

Xia Jiuyou snorted coldly.

A mighty practitioner of the Eighth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm actually killed by one of the Fourth Layer – it’s utterly disgraceful for the King Star Academic Palace.

"Your Majesty, this incident may be hard to conceal. Many students witnessed it at that time, and now the people of the Eight Great Families probably all know. Hence, a proper explanation is needed for Ye Fan’s death."

The State Preceptor said,

"Ye Fan’s death must absolutely not be said to have been due to him dealing with the Academic Palace students. Find another excuse."

Xia Jiu You frowned and said,

"Your Majesty, do you think this would work?"

The State Preceptor smiled, "We could say Ye Fan colluded with foreign enemies, and Ling Chen was executing Ye Fan under your secret imperial decree. This would not only demonstrate Your Majesty’s keen eye in recognizing talent, but also set Ling Chen’s mind at ease. After all, Ling Chen will eventually fall into our hands."

"Just do whatever! As long as it doesn’t tarnish the face of the King Star Academic Palace."

Xia Jiu You waved his hand.

"All right, then I’ll go handle it now."

The State Preceptor smiled, took his leave, and left.

...

King City, Zi Family.

"What, you’re saying that someone with talent comparable to the Crown Prince has emerged from the Academic Palace too?"

Zi Family Patriarch Zi Tian Nan suddenly stood up, looking at the Cultivator below, his voice filled with excitement.

"Yes."

The reporter said, "That person is Ling Chen, whom the Princely Heir befriended! With the power of the Fourth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, he slayed Ye Fan, an elder of the King Star Academic Palace, who was at the Eighth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm!"

"How is that possible?"

Zi Tian Nan’s eyes were filled with disbelief.

...

Lan Family.

Qin Family.

Lin Family.

Shen Family.

...

The same scene was unfolding among the Eight Great Families.

Almost every Family Head showed an expression of utter shock.

Except for the Jiang Family, it was different.

Jiang Family.

Jiang Family Patriarch Jiang Buxiang, after hearing his subordinate’s report, crushed the armrest of his chair with a "bang," and his eyes shot forth a fierce light.

His youngest son, who possessed the top-notch Super Spiritual Body, the Death Spirit Body, Jiang Wusheng, was slain by Ling Chen.

His hatred for Ling Chen was deep in his bones; he wished he could flay his skin and shave his bones.

Moreover, Jiang Family Elder Jiang Wuyan also lost an arm because of this.

"It seems we can’t allow this kid to continue growing any longer."

Jiang Buxiang spoke.

His voice was bone-chillingly cold.

"Although my Jiang Family can’t take action directly, hiring an assassin to do the job should be fine, right?"

A hideous smile appeared on Jiang Buxiang’s face.

A blood-colored Jade Scroll appeared in his hand.

It was the Jade Scroll used for contacting the Dark Night.

...

Dark Realm.

Shura Palace.

The four great Shuras of the Dark Night gathered together.

"Ling Chen, with the power of the Fourth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, has killed Ye Fan, an elder of the King Star Academic Palace, who was at the Eighth Layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, and mastered the Stellar Blade Realm!"

Seeing the information that appeared on the light screen in front of them, the four great Shuras showed a thick color of elation.

"Good!"

Star Shura clenched his fist, roaring out loud.

"At last, the Dark Night has raised someone capable of contending with the Prince of Great Xia, Xia Biluo!"

Spirit Shura was also extremely excited, with gleaming tears falling from the corner of his eye.

"This time, we must protect the Seventeenth Child well; we cannot let him repeat the tragedy that befell the Seventh Child from years past."

Night Shura spoke coldly.

In the past, the Dark Night had once produced a peerless genius with a Sacred Body.

However, it was because a Dark Night Son was captured that the identity of the genius with the Sacred Body was exposed.

That era’s Dark Night Son was almost completely captured overnight by the Ghost Guard.

From then on, the Dark Night Sons no longer knew each other’s identities, with only a few high-level individuals like these four great Shuras knowing each person’s identity.

This was to prevent the tragedy of the entire Dark Night Son being decimated once more.

And the name of that genius with the Sacred Body was Ling Tianxing.
