Isnât it Wei Donglai?
Behind him, five mysterious people wearing masks followed, hiding their identities.
They were all dressed in similar black robes, remaining silent from start to finish, yet maintaining a certain distance, neither too close nor too far behind Wei Donglai. The powerful aura they occasionally revealed was so intense that it almost felt like facing an abyss, suffocating.
Divine Power Territory!
Each of them is a cultivator of the Divine Power Territory!
"Wei Donglai?" Wang Shouye raised an eyebrow and said loudly, "Are you planning to take revenge on me?"
"Haha, just consider it revenge." Wei Donglai sneered continuously, "If it werenât for your sabotage, how would the Wei Familyâs reputation fall so drastically? How would I, Wei Donglai, almost lose everything and ruin my name?"
"Justice is in peopleâs hearts." Wang Shouye replied coldly, "If you had honestly competed, regardless of winning or losing, the impact on your reputation would have been limited. How would you end up like this? You brought disgrace upon yourselves; who else is there to blame?"
"Alright, youâre righteous, youâre always upright, arenât you?" Wei Donglai was too lazy to argue further, "Anyway, youâve ruined my plan to marry the Duchess of Luo Jia, and Iâll make sure you die without a burial place."
"Presumptuous!" The Duchess of Luo Jia was immediately furious upon hearing this, "Wei Donglai, youâve truly lost your mind."
"Oh, isnât this the Duchess of Luo Jia?" Wei Donglai sneered, "Turning away good young men, yet fancying a married man. Youâre quite a disgrace to our Great Zhou Dynasty."
"Do you dare compare yourself to Young Master Shouye?" The Duchess of Luo Jia countered with a cold smile, "Yes, I like him. So what? Someone like you, even if you begged pitifully at my feet, I wouldnât grant you a glance. You, hiding with these Divine Power Territory cultivators, think you can capture us; itâs utterly dreaming!"
"Alright, alright! The words of the Duchess have enlightened me," Wei Donglai laughed in anger, his face suddenly becoming sinister, "Youâve been searching for evidence of me colluding with the Demonic Dynasty, right? Today, Iâll show you plenty. Old Ancestor, stop hiding. Letâs act swiftly, eliminate Wang Shouye who conspires with the Demonic Dynasty, and rescue the Duchess of Luo Jia."
It was evident that he not only wanted to silence witnesses but also to play a trick of framing.
"Alas!"
A soft sigh echoed.
In the sigh, waves of spatial ripples appeared in the air.
An imposing old man, dressed in a brocade robe, tore through space and walked out slowly.
Under the sunlight, he stood in the air with a black robe, his garment fluttering, exuding extraordinary demeanor.
The terrifying aura spread out with his appearance, seeming to instantly fill the entire heavens and earth.
The dominance of a Transcendent Void Realm expert manifested at this moment unmistakably.
It was Wei King Wei Boyu.
Wei Boyu stood with his hands behind his back, coldly looking at the Duchess of Luo Jia and said, "Ling Xiao, I watched you grow up, wholeheartedly thinking you would become the daughter-in-law of my Wei Kingâs Mansion. Never did I think we would reach the point of armed confrontation today; truly, the world is unpredictable."
"Wei King." The Duchess of Luo Jia sighed, "I always thought of you as an elder, never expecting your Wei Kingâs Mansion would be so deeply colluded with the Demonic Dynasty, and you too, deeply involved."
"Itâs not collusion; itâs merely mutual benefit." Wei King Wei Boyu replied coldly, remaining unmoved even against the Duchessâs accusations, "Youâve Ji Family controlled the politics for years, and each generation is worse than the previous. Why should us Wei Family always be held down? This Great Emperor title deserves a change."
"Wei Boyu, do you think colluding with the Demonic Dynasty to stage a coup, the Immortal Emperor will just stand by?" The Duchess of Luo Jia was infuriated by his audacious tone, retorting coldly, "Youâre merely delusional."
"Throughout history, victory defines kings, loss defines outlaws. How to face the Immortal Emperor is the Wei Familyâs issue." Wei Boyu said calmly, "But Ling Xiao, you should surrender obediently. Donât think the hidden Sky Mechanism Recording Disk can be evidence. With me here today, none of you will leave."
As the words fell.
Wei Boyu waved his long sleeve, and a blazing energy burst forth.
As long as the Duchess of Luo Jia is captured first, none of the others are necessary to hold back!
Thatâs the might of a Transcendent Void Realm cultivator; even compared to an Unparalleled Heavenly Child of the Purple Abode Realm, itâs just an ant trying to stop a cart.
"Roar~!!"
Amidst the majestic and dignified roar of the Kylin, rolling Mysterious Energy condensed into a gigantic fiery claw, dominating fiercely towards capturing the Duchess of Luo Jia.
In an instant, half of the sky was dyed red by the flames emanating from this claw.
Wherever the fiery claw went, the flames wrapped with endless majesty burst forth wildly. It was just a casual strike by a Transcendent Void Realm cultivator, yet even this terrifying aura seemed capable of scorching everything around into ashes.
The Duchess of Luo Jiaâs face turned pale.
Even though she was mentally prepared and her will was steadfast, under this frightening aura, she still felt as insignificant as an ant, unable to resist.
"Duchess, be careful."
Wang Shouyeâs face also changed, and he immediately summoned the Daoist treasure, Blueflame Gourd, ready to defend.
But at this moment.
Suddenly, from the sky came a thunderous beastâs roar.
Along with the beastâs roar, a mighty gigantic palm emerged.
This giant palm, just like the fiery claw, was completely condensed from Mysterious Energy, but it was solid and heavy, as dense as a physical entity.
The giant palm swept in majestically, carrying boundless dignity and righteousness.
Where the palm print passed, infinite water vapor gathered, and the overheated air brought by the fiery claw was almost instantly dispelled.
In an instant, the giant palm swept past above the Duchess of Luo Jiaâs head, crashing directly towards the descending fiery claw.
"Boom!!!"
Deafening blasts resounded across the sky.
The terrifying energy surged like a storm, sweeping across all directions.
Under the rampant energy storm, the surrounding trees were almost instantly destroyed, debris was flying, even the mine beneath their feet trembled violently, nearly collapsing.
If it werenât for the strong skills of the Duchess of Luo Jia and others, it would be difficult even to stand firm in such an environment.
"Alas~ Wei Boyu, Wei Boyu, our Ji Family has not been harsh to your Wei Family, how did it come to this?"
Accompanied by a heavy sigh, a figure emerged from the raging energy storm, appearing before everyoneâs eyes.
It was a thin old man, wearing wide robes and large sleeves, exuding an aura of majesty.
Although he looked elderly, his spine straightened steadfastly, showing towering demeanor, fierce and dominating, carrying a grandeur as if it were heavenly might.
Under his protective aura, the raging Shock Wave around the Duchess of Luo Jia and Wang Shouye instantly calmed.
Wherever he passed, it was smooth and peaceful.
"Emperor Yuan Ping!"
Wei Boyuâs expression changed, fear surged in his heart: "Not good, itâs a trap!"
Wei Donglai looked more terrified, his face pale, almost unable to avoid collapsing to the ground.
Itâs over!
