Chapter 1243: The Profound Purity Palace (2/2)

The Profound Purity Palace was different.

For every generation in the past hundred thousand years, the Profound Purity Palace had been led by God domain sectmasters.

This had made the Profound Purity Palace one of the most powerful human sects, only coming after the four great sects.

It was said that the current sectmaster of the Profound Purity Palace, Yu Suying, who had accumulated her strength in the early God domain for many years, had a great chance to advance to the middle God domain within a short time.

Furthermore, she had a junior martial sister who was expected to break through into the early God domain soon.

Once both of them made their breakthroughs, the Profound Purity Palace would have two God domain experts, which would push its strength to unprecedented heights.

They had only had one God domain expert in each of the past three generations, while they would have two in this generation!

This might even allow the Profound Purity Palace to come neck and neck with the four great sects.

Nie Tian finally realized what was happening.

It also occurred to him that the Profound Purity Palace’s territory bordered that of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace. Once the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace went down, their rise would be easy.

“I have a question, Sectmaster Yu,” Mo Qianfan said.

Having silenced Zu Guangyao, Yu Suying made a grabbing motion in the air with her jade hand. In the next moment, the Heaven-purging Divine Light that filled the void returned to her like swallows returning to their nest, and disappeared behind her back.

It was as if there was an invisible space at her back that stored all of the Heaven-purging Divine Light.

“I’m listening,” she said plainly.

“Aside from your sect, are there other human forces that are also attempting to overthrow and replace the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace?” Mo Qianfan asked in a concerned voice.

Yu Suying nodded. “Like us, many forces have waited many years for an opportunity like this. Of course we won’t miss it. The Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace has a large number of subordinate domains and realms, which yield all sorts of cultivation resources. Our sect alone can’t occupy all of them. It seems that we’ll have to divide the ‘spoils’ with the others.”

Yin Xingtian joined the conversation. “The Extreme Coldness Palace and the rebel forces in the other domains rose up simultaneously. Did your sect incite their rebellion?”

“Not all of them,” Yu Suying said, looking fully at ease.

“Then who else is there?” Yin Xingtian asked.

“I don’t know everything, but even what I know, I can’t tell you.” Yu Suying refused to give details. “I can only tell you that our sect made a bit of a promise to the local forces in the Domain of Frigid Depths.”

Mo Qianfan nodded, his eyes cast down. “I see.”

Yin Xingtian also fell silent.

Yu Suying, however, looked calmly at Nie Tian, waiting for his decision.

Nie Tian frowned deeply.

He could tell that both Yin Xingtian and Mo Qianfan reckoned that he would benefit from it if he were to cut his ties to the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace.

Furthermore, both of them seemed to lack confidence when facing Yu Suying.

“Now crammed in the Domain of Frigid Depths are Grand Monarch Ice Bones, Chu Rui, Luo Wanxiang, Grand Patriarch Evil Phantom, and Yu Suying...” As Nie Tian thought to himself, he cast a glance at Zu Guangyao, Xin Qing, and Han Wanrong.

He saw nothing but bitterness and helplessness on their faces. The three of them seemed to have heard their conversation and been convinced that he would make the wise decision here.

Right now, he had Mo Qianfan, Yin Xingtian, Master Blood Spirit, Xie Qian, and other powerful experts at his back. He might even be able to enlist Li Wanfa and Zhang Qiling as his subordinates later.

Under such circumstances, his strength would easily rise above that of any Son of the Stars, or even any vice sectmaster.

Why would he cling to the sinking ship that was the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace?

Ji Cang and Mo Heng were missing. Chu Rui was trapped. Luo Wanxiang had turned traitor. Sects like the Profound Purity Palace had joined up to overthrow the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace and plunged all of its subordinate domains into chaos. Clearly, the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace was going down.

Han Wanrong let out a sigh and slowly closed her eyes, as if she knew that Nie Tian would decide to walk away from the perilous Domain of Frigid Depths, as well as the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, which was now a total mess.

“Go,” Han Wanrong said inwardly. “Make the wise decision. Our sect can’t keep you safe and help you ascend to the God domain anymore. Instead, it’ll only drag you down. Only if you leave will you have a future.”
