Chapter 81: Mortal Kings Might (1) (2/2)
Today, she finally found out the terrifying power of the four stone statues. And, she also understood why her master had acquiesced against Li Qiye that day. Demon Kings or Mortal Kings, they were nothing! Under the hand of the four Heavenly Protectors, they would easily be crushed!
At this moment, not only the cultivators watching from afar but all of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect was in a daze. Zi Shan Hou lost his wits from shock!
The Mortal King’s will frightened others so, but it was easily destroyed – who on earth did this?!
“Only a Mortal King? Even a Mortal Emperor still wouldn’t reach the apex.” Regarding this event, Li Qiye essentially didn’t put it in his mind, and he said this in an incredibly calm manner!
At this moment, Li Qiye issued a command: “Execute.”
“No…” Dong Shenglong and Lie Zhan Hou, at the moment of death, couldn’t help but let out a loud cry. They didn’t think that today, even the Mortal King wouldn’t be able to save them!
The disciples of the sect regained their wits, and execution blades were raised, then fallen, beheading Dong Shenglong and Lie Zhan Hou; their heads rolled farther and farther.
In the end, the heads of Dong Shenglong and Lie Zhan Hou were neatly placed in wooden boxes by the disciples, and, under the command of Li Qiye, were brought to the front of Zi Shan Hou.
Li Qiye simply glanced at Zi Shan Hou as he calmly said: “I’ll leave you with one message for you to deliver to the Heavenly G.o.d Sect: whoever blocks my path, I kill without mercy!” Since he was finished speaking, he turned around and left!
Zi Shan Hou’s expression was extremely ugly, but, at this moment, he didn’t dare to be reckless. He took the heads of Dong Shenglong and Lie Zhan Hou, and then he left in a hurry!
The moment the gigantic hand destroyed the Mortal King’s will, in the Imperial City, a stalwart and domineering man suddenly trembled and let out a roar. His two eyes absorbed heavenly flames, and they suddenly opened. He then stood up.
The expression of the man was shocked. Standing on the high platform, he was gazing at the far distance; it was as if he was directly looking at the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect. At this moment, his demeanor became dignified. As the Mortal King, he used to divide and repress his royal subjects; however, today, his heart was in distraught, and his mind was in distress.
The man stood there with a pale expression, and he was without words for a long time. To someone with great talents like him, who had swept through the Heavenly Jewel territories, today, his Mortal King’s will was easily destroyed without the slightest resistance. To him, this was not only a great shame but also an extremely harmful matter!
“Invite the Ancestor…”
Finally, the man gravely spoke, and he sent a messenger towards the ancestral ground of the Heavenly G.o.d Sect for guidance! To him, this matter was too shocking.
A stone hand crossed over the world, and it destroyed the Mortal King’s will; inside the Nine Saint Demon Gate, there were disciples reporting to Demon King Lun Ri. Receiving the report, his expression was also shaken.
Inside the Nine Saint Demon Gate, Demon King Lun Ri summoned all of the elders. Within the secret room, the atmosphere became heavy.
“The news confirmed that one hand from our stone statue crossed the world, and it destroyed the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom’s Mortal King’s will!” Even though Demon King Lun Ri didn’t show his face, his voice was still ringing in the secret room.
The Nine Saint Demon Gate’s information gathering was extremely swift; they found out in the shortest amount of time.
Such an event caused the elders to gaze at each other. This was not only too sudden, but it was also out of the Nine Saint Demon Gate’s control.
An elder gravely said: “It was definitely Li Qiye activating the Heavenly Protectors.” This was something that couldn’t be questioned; it was described vividly.
Even the entire Nine Saint Demon Gate didn’t have anyone who could activate the four Heavenly Protectors; only Li Qiye could do it! Besides Li Qiye, who else could it be?
The moment of silence was broken by an elder: “Our Nine Saint Demon Gate and the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect are separated by millions of miles, and we’re not inside the same country. This one hand of the Heavenly Protectors was able to cross the heaven and earth and easily destroyed the Mortal King’s will!”
Here, the elder paused for a moment and continued: “Exactly how powerful are they?”
Regarding this matter, the elder’s hearts quaked, and they stared at each other. This was a test for them. From the past till now, the Nine Saint Demon Gate had never heard of their Heavenly Protectors making a move. In reality, before Li Qiye came, the elders didn’t even know about the existences of the Heavenly Protectors.
Flying across the world and destroying the Mortal King’s will — this was an unbelievably sky shattering matter!
“It is time for us to take action.” The moment the elders were in quiet contemplation, the voice of Demon King Lun Ri slowly appeared: “The conflict between the Heavenly G.o.d Sect and the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect needs to be reconciled.”
Hearing the Demon King’s words, the elders were surprised; one of them couldn’t help but say: “Your Majesty, the Heavenly G.o.d Sect and the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect are mortal enemies. The Heavenly G.o.d Sect’s will to destroy the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect has never ended. If we interfere, I’m afraid we would become enemies with the Heavenly G.o.d Sect.”
