Chapter 384: Chapter 216: Blood-Clad Tower Master? Just a Bunch of Nobodies!_2

Mo Qingyan’s expression was extremely calm.

“As long as the Nascent Soul experts don’t bully the weak, I can’t be bothered to care.”

For her, a cultivator on the path to becoming an Earth Immortal, a retreat could last thousands of years. If the opponent couldn’t break through the Nascent Soul stage, they would simply turn into a pile of yellow soil.

There was no need to be angry about it.

“The rumors say that the Emperor’s strength is quite good. Isn’t the ancestor competing with other True Monarchs for a minor world? This person could serve the ancestor well.”

The purple-clad beauty bowed her hands, her eyes flicking with motion.

“Oh? I would never have thought that just a hundred years of seclusion would see the emergence of a little genius within our sect.”

Mo Qingyan smiled slightly, unconcerned.

“The other party is too weak right now, hardly able to defeat other Nascent Soul envoys. We’ll see about that later.”

In her opinion, the outer sea was very barren. Even if there were some geniuses, they merely had the strength of ordinary kings.

They were far from being top envoys of the Nascent Soul cultivators.

Sending such a person into battle would likely lead to self-humiliation.

“My disciple will keep an eye on them, reporting immediately to the master with any news.”

The purple-clad beauty bowed slightly, then rose to her feet and slowly walked out of the great hall.

…

Qianyang Island, the outskirts.

Inside Yuelai Building.

The human tide surged, the noise was clamorous.

A large group of Celestial Dynasty cultivators sat on chairs, drinking Spiritual Wine and eating Demon Beast Meat.

The atmosphere throughout was exceptionally lively.

As one of the three major taverns of the Celestial Dynasty, Yuelai Building made a fortune every day with its unique Spiritual Wine.

It was said that the tavern was backed by Duan Fei, the mother of the Celestial Dynasty. Those who dared to make trouble here were thrown into the dungeon.

A large number of cultivators gathered here also to collect some intelligence on the Celestial Dynasty.

At the moment, a man in black clothes sat by a table near a window.

The man’s aura was unremarkable, except for the occasional flash of cold light in his eyes.

He was the master of the Blood-Clad Tower from the Inner Sea, He Yan.

“I wish to join the Celestial Dynasty, are there any ways to do so? Is it personally screened by the Emperor?”

Seeing a youth in green approach with Spiritual Wine, He Yan pretended to be nonchalant.

“Oh… It’s quite a coincidence, senior. Recently, many cultivators want to join the Celestial Dynasty, and the spots are very limited…”

The youth squeezed out a smile.

“Besides, the Emperor is busy with thousands of affairs has no time to attend to such trivial matters.”

Hearing this, He Yan’s brows furrowed.

If the other party wouldn’t come out, he wouldn’t dare to burst into the island regulated by the Big Formation, let alone suddenly rise up and kill Lu Li.

At this moment, a group of cultivators nearby laughed, “I heard the Emperor is busy pampering Chen Fei and Yuan Fei, who has the time to care about us?”

The group was particularly keen on the gossip about the Celestial Dynasty.

He Yan gave a faint smile, remained silent, and picked up the Spiritual Wine to drink it all in one gulp.

As an experienced hunter, he had plenty of patience.

To strike in darkness with a sure kill was the path he pursued.

The thrill of killing a genius invigorated him each time.

“He hoped that Lu Li would not disappoint him.”

He Yan’s mind was full of thoughts.

…

Three days later.

Qianyang Island.

Hall of the Purple Dawn, on a jade couch.

Lu Li, dressed by the attendance of Wang Yan and another woman, rose and walked towards the outside of the hall.

For the past three days, he had been spending wild times with the two women in the Hall of the Purple Dawn.

The two women, who had been chaste for a thousand years, gave in to their newfound appetites. If not for his extraordinary physical constitution, they would have drained him dry.

Moreover, under his relentless efforts, the two women eventually begged for mercy.

Walking out of the palace under the adoring gazes of Cheng Xuanying and the other woman, Lu Li carried his hands behind his back and slowly walked towards the island’s exterior.

Every maid in the vicinity of the Hall of the Purple Dawn knelt on the ground, their faces filled with awe and envy.

The news that the Emperor had stayed in the Hall of the Purple Dawn had spread throughout the Celestial Dynasty days ago.

Countless women dreamed of catching Lu Li’s eye, but none had their wish fulfilled.

Paying no heed to the various thoughts of the women, Lu Li soon stepped beyond the edges of the Array and flew towards the Spirit Turtle Cave Mansion.

He had not seen Iron Pillar in these days and imagined that there must be more Spiritual Objects in the cave.

As Lu Li flew to the edge of Qianyang Island, he suddenly stopped in midair with a stern expression.

His golden imperial robe fluttered in the fierce wind, his entire body emitting an impressively tyrannical aura.

Countless cultivators below looked upon him with reverence and curiosity, wondering why Lu Li had stopped there.

Then, an anomaly occurred.

A stream of blood-colored brilliance, carrying a powerful aura of death, burst out from the tavern with lightning speed.

In a blink of an eye, it reached in front of Lu Li, then conjured a blood-red spear and ferociously struck at him, its momentum terrifyingly dreadful.

From He Yan’s appearance to his sudden aggression, it all happened in an instant.

Countless cultivators below finally reacted.

Their faces filled with shock.

“Damn, someone made a move to assassinate the Emperor.”

“It’s the Blood-Clad Tower Master!”

Many people recognized the assailant.

Worry began to swell in their hearts.

It was known that this person was extremely famous in the Inner Sea, having killed numerous peak king-level experts, and had not made a move for hundreds of years, probably possessing Emperor Level strength.

The power displayed this time was utterly world-shaking.

The manager of Yuelai Building was so frightened he couldn’t keep his soul together, collapsing directly onto the ground.

If someone rushed out of his building to assassinate an Emperor, and there was an accounting for this later, he would be finished.

At the same time, several middle-aged cultivators’ eyes flashed with cold light.

If Lu Li were killed this time, it would be their chance to rise again.

As escapees from the Demon Sect, they harbored bone-deep hatred for the immortal dynasty.

Lu Li snorted with laughter; when he had just passed by this place, he had noticed the anomaly.

Since his breakthrough, his Divine Power Spiritual Eye’s perceptive ability had greatly improved, making him extremely sensitive to killing intent.

He transformed into a gargantuan figure standing in the void, radiating an ancient and untamed aura.

With a thought, the Divine Weapon immediately appeared in his hand.

Then, he activated his Innate Divine Ability, channeling a thread of Power of the World into the Divine Weapon.

He swung his axe forward.

The Divine Weapon blazed with brilliant light, emitting an astonishing aura as fierce as the sun, and violently clashed with the blood-colored spear.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

Endless Gang Wind swept across all directions, even shaking open the clouds high above, leaving the surroundings full of dust and smoke.

The Divine Weapon directly cleaved the blood-colored spear in front, then continued its unstoppable momentum towards He Yan’s head.

“This is impossible!”

He Yan’s face showed shock.

Such strength had completely surpassed that of the Central Emperor; it was far above his own.

Even with his preemptive strike, he was defeated in one move.

His earlier confidence had already turned into boundless fear.

If he couldn’t dodge this strike, he would die.

As an Emperor Level expert worshipped by countless cultivators, with the Nascent Soul Path in sight and potentially tens of thousands of years of life to pursue immortality, he truly didn’t want to fall here.

He would never have thought that his attempt to assassinate Lu Li would bring him to the brink of death.

He had believed that he could kill Lu Li in just one move.

“Ah…”

He Yan, with no time to think further, began to fully stimulate his Essence Blood.

Infinite murderous auras soared into the sky as his own aura significantly strengthened once more.

He summoned a golden round shield with rays of light cascading down, firmly enveloping him.

This Half Spirit Treasure Level defensive magical treasure was already the highest quality of treasures.

With his stimulated Essence Blood, the defensive power was astonishing.

If he could just block this strike, he could immediately withdraw and escape unscathed.

This thought once again gave him a glimmer of hope.

Right at this moment, the Divine Weapon fiercely crashed down upon the round shield.

Crack…

The golden round shield was directly cleaved in two, its spiritual light dimming as it fell toward the ground.

Then, the Divine Weapon, with undiminished force, continued its path toward He Yan’s head.

“Ah…”

A huge head soared into the sky, the corners of the eyes filled with unwillingness, as blood gushed forth, spraying the air.

In his dying moment, he still couldn’t believe that his Half Spirit Treasure had failed to block even one blow.

His earlier confidence had indeed been a joke.

Then, Lu Li let out a breath of Sword Qi, shredding the opponent’s body and Primordial Spirit into pieces, scattering them across the void.

From the moment He Yan made his move to his sudden death, everything had happened in the blink of an eye.

Countless cultivators below finally reacted.

Their faces filled with terror.

Who would have thought that an Emperor Level expert’s assassination attempt would be countered with a single strike?

Such strength was incredibly rare and unparalleled throughout the outer sea.

Several remnants of the Demon Sect were all pale with fear, burying their heads down below, afraid of being discovered.

“The strength of this Emperor is becoming more and more terrifying; we have no chance, better to escape.”

Their tones were very bitter.

Just a moment ago, they had hoped Blood-Clad Tower could kill Lu Li, only to see him instantly killed instead.

This generated a profound impact in everyone’s minds.

This Emperor’s strength was no longer something they could challenge.

To continue resisting would only lead to a dead end.
