The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1478 - Chapter 1478 Chapter 1576 What Are You Worth

Chapter 1478: Chapter 1576: What Are You Worth? Chapter 1478: Chapter 1576: What Are You Worth? Executioner, this is a terrifying title.

Especially in the era over nine hundred years ago, the Executioner had become an existence that caused many Martial Artists of the Nine Countries to pale in color when mentioned.

If one were to discuss who among the many formidable assassins of Hidden Kill Hall is the strongest, it is hard to say; after all, whether it be Green Robe Guest, Alluring Fairy, or that old man, all are top-notch experts.

But if speaking of who has killed the most, naturally it would be the Executioner.

Executioner is this person’s nickname, because so many people used it, that no one remembers what he was originally called.

However, it’s also unnecessary to remember; whatever his real name, in the eyes of the world, he is just an unblinking killer, the Executioner.

The Executioner’s appearance is unlike many people’s imaginations, appearing weak and frail, his face carrying a sickly paleness and though he is tall, he appears emaciated.

Dressed in a snow-white robe, blending into the vast snowy plains, if not for the eye-catching executioner’s blade in his hand, it would be difficult even to notice his presence.

“Finally arrived, this guy is usually the first one here, but today he is so late.” Fairy looked towards the Executioner, a slight smile playing at her lips.

“Maybe he was scared, and felt it improper not to come, so he dawdled until now, waiting for us to start fighting with the Sky Swallowing Palace Master first,” grumbled the old farmer, crouching on the ground.

Green Robe Guest chuckled and shook his head: “Anyone can feel fear, but the Executioner would never be afraid. It truly took some convincing to bring him here.”

“Hmph, that Sky Swallowing Palace Master really commands great respect, requiring the four of us to act together. Not even when assassinating the previous generation’s Tang Emperor did it reach this extent,” said Fairy.

Green Robe Guest spoke gently, “Though the previous generation’s Tang Emperor was strong, he wasn’t immortal. But this Sky Swallowing Palace Master may have reached the realm of immortality already, not someone we can easily deal with.”

Fairy fell silent, understanding that such a grand preparation was indeed necessary this time. If the masters present weren’t of sufficient caliber, they couldn’t pose a threat to the Sky Swallowing Palace Master.

Moreover, it’s not just the Sky Swallowing Palace Master who is an expert in Sky Swallowing Palace; those masked people are also not to be underestimated.

The Executioner, dragging his executioner’s blade, walked up to Fairy and Green Robe Guest, nodding slightly in greeting without any expression, his face as rigid as a dead man’s.

At this moment, from the distant horizon, a blast of wind swept in, carrying with it the Yuan Emperor dressed in wolf robe and purple armor, holding a long halberd.

“The Yuan Emperor is here as well,” said Green Robe Guest, looking up at the Yuan Emperor standing high in the sky.

The Yuan Emperor approached, first glancing at Dugu Nian and others standing outside the Sky Swallowing Palace, furrowing his brows, then saluting the Qin Emperor: “I came as promised, hopefully, Qin Emperor wasn’t kept waiting for too long?”

“The timing of Yuan Emperor’s arrival is just right,” responded the Qin Emperor with a casual salute.

After the appearance of the two emperors, they almost ignored the four from Hidden Kill Hall below. Although they saw Green Robe Guest and others, they had no interaction with them. After all, Hidden Kill Hall and the Upper Three Countries were like fire and water, with the past generations of the Three Emperors experiencing countless assassinations from Hidden Kill Hall, and many masters from the Upper Three Countries have died at their hands.

The enmity between the two sides could truly be described as deep as the sea.

If not for the mediation of the Western Moon King and the common enemy of Sky Swallowing Palace, it’s unlikely that Qin Emperor and Yuan Emperor would have participated in this siege.

“With Qin Emperor and Yuan Emperor here, Tang Emperor likely won’t come; that guy probably hates our Hidden Kill Hall to the bone,” said Green Robe Guest.

“It’s a pity that he didn’t come. If he did, we could have taken the opportunity to eliminate him,” said the old farmer coldly.

“Ha, you think you can eliminate the Tang Emperor?” Fairy scoffed, looking at the old farmer disdainfully.

The old farmer glared, “Alone I certainly can’t, but isn’t that what you all are here for?”

Fairy snorted and ignored the old farmer, while Green Robe Guest simply smiled faintly, paying him no further heed.

The executioner, always icy and reticent, stood silently to the side, his sharp and profound gaze fixed on the Sky Swallowing Palace.

“Now, we are only waiting for the Pill Alliance’s group. It’s uncertain how many will come,” murmured Green Robe Guest.

Shortly thereafter, Western Moon King along with South Zodiac and North Spirit appeared together. Three of the four Heaven Kings arrived, representing the most formidable warriors currently in the Pill Alliance.

Western Moon King, seeing two of the Three Emperors had come, slightly furrowed his brows, then looked down at the four individuals including Green Robe Guest, showing a hint of joy upon seeing them.

“Everyone, sorry to have kept you waiting,” Western Moon King greeted the two Emperors and the group below with a fist salute.

“No matter,” replied Qin Emperor, returning the salute but with a noticeably cold demeanor.

Green Robe Guest, however, saluted back to Western Moon King, “The journey must have been taxing for the three Heaven Kings.”

South Zodiac King and North Spirit King had complex expressions. Deep down, they did not wish to come here, but unable to refuse Western Moon King’s plea, they came along and were prepared to retire after this battle, regardless of the outcome or the future of the Pill Alliance.

But the thought of fighting side by side with Hidden Kill Hall made both South Zodiac King and North Spirit King feel uncomfortable.

“Good, good, it looks like almost everyone that should be here has arrived,” sang Dugu Nian in a melodious voice, as a figure in a red robe rose and stood barefoot atop the Sky Swallowing Palace.

Her red hair flowed freely, her face concealed behind a mask, and her blood-red eyes fixed on the figures in the sky and on the ground.

“So the Sky Swallowing Palace Master is a woman,” laughed Yuan Emperor, his eyes gleaming with a teasing light.

“So what if she is a woman?” Dugu Nian said indifferently, glancing at Yuan Emperor.

Yuan Emperor was about to make some crude remark, but was subdued by the piercing gaze of the Sky Swallowing Palace Master, swallowing his words.

“Remove your mask. Do you think wearing it can still prevent us from investigating your identity?” Qin Emperor spoke with commanding authority.

Dugu Nian turned to face Qin Emperor, her laugh ringing like silver bells, naive and unfettered.

“This is the Extreme North Land, the domain of my Sky Swallowing Palace, not your Qing Nation. You may command in your royal palace, but what authority do you have here?” Dugu Nian spoke with a tinge of scorn.

Qin Emperor’s face twisted with anger, and he might have lashed out if he didn’t know her strength was immensely formidable.

The four individuals including Green Robe Guest leapt up, positioning themselves in the sky. Together with the two Emperors and the three great Heaven Kings, they subtly surrounded the entire Sky Swallowing Palace.
