Chapter 80: Zi Shan Hou (2) (2/2)

“Zi Shan Hou…” After seeing this old man, the onlooking cultivators changed their expressions.

“Zi Shan Hou arrived.” Witnessing this old man, a sect leader murmured: “A previous generation Royal n.o.ble, ah! Extremely experienced! Zi Shan Hou’s name has been prestigious for generations. He can be considered one of the Royal n.o.bles at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom.”

“So it is Zi Shan Hou who graces us with his presence.” Seeing the old man on the dragon horse, Gu Tieshou’s pupils were focused and his demeanor became dignified. Although Zi Shan Hou’s reputation wasn’t as ruthless as Lie Zhan Hou’s, his strength was definitely higher! After all, he was a Royal n.o.ble of the previous generation, and he was also at the pinnacle of all Royal n.o.bles!

Zi Shan Hou was still seated on the dragon horse when his voice resounded again: “Ancient Elders, don’t commit a mistake. Lie Zhan Hou is an important official of the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom; you should quickly release him along with Brother Dong, and then follow me to the capital, accepting the emperor’s punishment and confess.”

As Gu Tieshou was about to speak; however, Li Qiye waved his hand to stop him and revealed a pleasant smile: “Confess? This word isn’t part of my vocabulary! While I still have no intention to kill you, you should get out of my sight immediately, as far as possible!”

“Who is this child? What a bold tone!” After hearing Li Qiye’s words, many of the spectating cultivators couldn’t help but look at each other. Who was Zi Shan Hou? He was a previous generation Royal n.o.ble, and he was one of the Royal n.o.bles at the pinnacle to boot! He was an important official of the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom, yet Li Qiye, a junior, dared to use this kind of arrogant tone.

“This child from some random place, let this seat give you a little lesson in place of your elders!” Zi Shan Hou’s gaze became cold. With his grinding big hands, he sent Li Qiye a palm strike!

A “Zhang” sword sound was heard, and a sword appeared from the blue sky; however, it didn’t come from Li Qiye. Instead, Li Shuangyan already made a move. One sword to pillar the sky, decapitating all spirits! Phoenix odes emanated from her body, and her sword had its own spirit. Moves after moves activated; one sword released, and the mountains and rivers lost their colors.

“You are worthy of being the successor of the Nine Saint Demon Gate!” Seeing Li Shuangyan’s sword, Zi Shan Hou let out a cold snort. His two hands formed seals, like a giant mountain, suppressing down from above.

“Get out of here!” At this point, Gu Tieshou also took action. A Kun Peng traversed the sky, and, when the huge Kun Peng’s tail fiercely struck down, it shattered the earth with a ferocious momentum.

Witnessing the tail of the Kun Peng coming, Zi Shan Hou’s expression darkened. He didn’t dare to be reckless; he brought his hands together, and his true energy rose, blocking the tail of Gu Tieshou’s Kun Peng.

“Bang!” Even though Zi Shan Hou was able to block the strike from Gu Tieshou, his dragon horse couldn’t handle the pressure. It bellowed as it fell to the ground; it was no longer capable of standing back up.

Regarding the fight, Li Qiye didn’t pay much attention. He simply shook his head, and then he said: “Elder’s Six Variants is needlessly complex.”

Hearing these words, if it was from someone else, then it would sound extremely arrogant. However, after witnessing Li Qiye’s Kun Peng’s Six Variants, Gu Tieshou definitely did not think the words were arrogant.

Gu Tieshou began to speak: “Look at my Six Variants.”

He wanted to let Li Qiye see his Kun Peng’s Six Variants in hopes that he could get Li Qiye’s guidance to serve as reference material.

And so, after Gu Tieshou’s words came out, he approached Zi Shan Hou.

Zi Shan Hou’s face was extremely ugly. As a Royal n.o.ble of the previous generation, today, he was unable to suppress Gu Tieshou. Immortal Emperor Merit Law – truly frightening!

“Gu Tieshou, today, I won’t bother with you!” Zi Shan Hou continued: “Today, this seat brought his Majesty’s Imperial Decree. Regardless of whether or not the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect is willing, you must let the prisoners go. Otherwise, the consequences will ensue!”

“The Mortal King’s Imperial Decree!” Gu Tieshou couldn’t help but focus his gaze. The Mortal King of the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom was someone with extremely high talents and a clever and calculating mind. His cultivation was extremely profound, and he was definitely someone to fear. Due to the Mortal King, the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom was now flouris.h.i.+ng with life. It could be said that, due to the ambitious nature of the Mortal King of the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom, he wanted to succeed in making the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom into a never falling eternal ancient kingdom!

At this moment, Zi Shan Hou’s hands already brought out the Imperial Decree from the Mortal King. The imperial order only had a single character on it, “Amnesty”. The moment this character appeared, the torrential royal power of the Mortal King could be felt across ten thousand miles. Within this “Amnesty” character, the vast royal pressure of the Mortal King exploded; it was as if the Mortal King was currently present, turning others into loyal subjects.

Even though Gu Tieshou was a Royal n.o.ble, when the character “Amnesty” was brought forth, he could feel the immense pressure; his blood started to roll. This “Amnesty” character carried a pressure that was akin to an unclimbable mountain that was placed inside his heart. It was so uncomfortable that it made him want to vomit blood.

The Imperial Decree only had a single character “Amnesty”, but this single character was already enough. This single character already represented the will of a Mortal King on his high throne. With this “Amnesty” character alone, it was already enough to suppress a Royal n.o.ble!
