Chapter 1033 - Blood Sacrifice–Ardent Fire City (2/2)

Seated at the throne position was a thin male wearing a beige robe. His nose was straight, and his eyes were deep. Even though he was thin and small, his body felt like it had become one entity with the surrounding void. He was the void, and the void was him. As a result, he gave off an unseen suppression that caused other experts present at the scene to hold their breath. He was none other than the religious master of the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion, one of the top ten great religions in the entire Realm Heart Great Land.

“King.”

The atmosphere present was quite oppressive. Everyone turned to the king.

The eyes of the Southern Cloud King were looking far away. Waving his hand, a complete circular projection floated in the air. It faintly reflected the endless time-space continuum, and soon, the scene of Ardent Fire City appeared within.

“Blood Sacrifice.”

“That is the Blood Sacrifice of Black Devil Great Lake.”

The expressions of the three monarchs and five Conferred Kings present turned ugly. The five Conferred Kings who came… were all at the tenth level strength.

“No!”

Old Mother Ying Shan spent most of her time stationed in the capital. At this moment, she was anxiously looking at the scene projected on the circular mirror. This circular mirror was known as the ‘Heaven Observation Mirror’ One could rely on it to observe any place across the entire Realm Heart Great Land. There were very few places that could evade being watched by this mirror. Even those sealed places where ultra-long distance teleportation could not reach could similarly be observed.

This was a precious secret treasure.

“King.” Old Mother Ying Shan immediately stood up and exclaimed anxiously, “This is the Ardent Fire City, my Ying Shan Clan’s Ardent Fire City. We absolutely must not watch…”

Southern Cloud King turned taciturn. His deep eyes merely stared at the Heaven Observation Mirror.

“My Ying Shan Clan disciple ‘, Ying Shan Xue Ying,’ is also in the Ardent Fire City. His talent is extremely huge, and it is certain that he’ll become a Conferred King.” Old Mother Ying Shan hurriedly added.

“And? What can we do?”

Southern Cloud King finally responded. His voice was solemn and cold, “Can we act? If I were to break the tacit understanding, that’d be equivalent to slapping the faces of the three religious masters of the Black Devil Great Lake! The three of them from the Black Devil Great Lake might just act after that, and by then, this will be a huge war that engulfs the entire Southern Cloud Nation. The number of deaths and injuries would be indeterminate.”

Old Mother Ying Shan did not respond at that moment.

She knew.

She also understood it.

Even though the Southern Cloud King had governed the entire Southern Cloud Nation well, allowing it to flourish the entire Realm Heart Great Land was still based entirely on the theory of strength being prime! The three religious masters of the ‘Black Devil Great Lake’ were all huge devils that brought disasters across the entire Realm Heart Great Land. Even the six great ancient nations could not get rid of them. As for the Black Devil Four Nations, they were covered in their shadows!

Comparatively speaking, the Southern Cloud Nation was in the best condition.

Fiery Zhao Nation had the most occurrences of being attacked. Of course, the Black Devil Great Lake would not ‘kill the goose that lay the golden eggs’. Naturally, the Cosmos Gods from Fiery Zhao Nation did not dare resist.

As for the Snow Hook Nation, that was a nation that dared to compete directly with the six great ancient nations. The king had an explosive temper too, and would similarly dare to risk it all with the Black Devil Great Lake. Nevertheless, the faces of the six great ancient nations and the Black Devil Great Lake were not fun to slap. Hence, the Snow Hook Nation had suffered from several huge calamities in its history. Nevertheless, the Black Devil Great Lake similarly felt their heads aching because the bones of the Snow Hook Nation were not easy to be gnawed. Hence, they would not usually act, but the moment they did so, they would ruthlessly give Snow Hook Nation a severe lesson.

As for the Maple Nest Nation, it was closest to the Summer Wind Ancient Nation. In reality, it had already decided to rely on the Summer Wind Ancient Nation, and with the protection from the ancient nation, it was in a much better condition. Even though it was rare for the Black Devil Great Lake to bring disaster to the Maple Nest Nation, it still occurred.

After all…

The Black Devil Great Lake was not afraid of the Summer Wind Ancient Nation. They even dared to cause trouble to the Summer Wind Ancient Nation.

Only the ‘Southern Cloud Nation’ was being affected the least since Southern Cloud King himself was strong, and had befriended many other experts across the world. In the dark, he similarly made friends with the three religious masters from Black Devil Great Lake! But no matter what, the Black Devil Great Lake would still hold a Blood Sacrifice occasionally, and they would only choose some of the smaller cities within the Southern Cloud Nation.

This was the hidden rule.

Both parties were abiding by it too! When the Black Devil Great Lake had its reputation protected, the Southern Cloud Nation could similarly maintain its overall stability and prosperity.

“But, but…” Old Mother Ying Shan looked at the mirror floating in the air, watching as to how there was a pure and holy white-robed male sitting cross-legged in front of a floating black bottle. Old Mother Ying Shan was able to recognize him with a glance that this was a devil master existence from the Black Devil Great Lake–White Cloud Devil Master, “But the disciples of my Ying Shan Clan, and that Little Fellow Xue Ying, he…”

Old Mother Ying Shan felt her heart aching.

Other than the ancestral family, the Ying Shan Clan had a total of six branches. One of them was located here at the Ardent Fire City! So many Ying Shan clan disciples and that outstanding Little Fellow Xue Ying…

‘Why would this be? Why?’ Old Mother Ying Shan felt angry and agonized. She truly wanted to kill her way over.

But she knew…

That with the spatial seal present, she could not find Ardent Fire City at all! There was only one existence across the entire Southern Cloud Nation who had the strength to enter–Southern Cloud King when he utilized the ‘Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique’. But it was impossible for the Southern Cloud King to lose all decorum with the three religious masters from Black Devil Great Lake because of this matter.

‘Damn, damn.’ The eyes of the Southern Cloud King remained deep and calm. It seemed as if this event was just a small rising wave in the vast sea. Nevertheless, in reality, he was keeping the anger in himself.

The city of his subordinate.

His civilians.

They were currently being massacred and sent for a Blood Sacrifice.

How could he not be angry?

It’s just that… at times, he had to endure! When facing the Black Devil Great Lake, he had to endure! When facing the six great ancient nations, he also had to endure!
