Chapter 1070: Faceless Man (1/2)

He placed his hands behind his back and said, “This is my chance! The meeting held by King Yi is the best time for me to grab onto this chance firmly!”

In the fortress, Fu Li reported, “My lord, Yan Sovereign Jiang Yiqi is here, he’s already outside of the fortress!”

Zhong Yue’s expression changed right away and he said, “Let’s go welcome him.”

Outside the fortress, Yan Sovereign Jiang Yiqi was approaching with Shi Tuo and Xing Tian behind him.

After not seeing him for such a long time, Xing Tian was now a towering muscular young man and he was riding on the back of Shi Tuo. For Shi Tuo, he was bestowed with a body by Feng Xiaozhong, this body was a body created by Feng Xiaozhong with the power of Creator, but because of this, he became Xing Tian’s mount.

Whereas for Jiang Yiqi, he appeared to be much younger than before, as if he returned to his middle age from an old man, now taking the form of a younger and confident middle-aged man!

From Creator to Imperial Emperor level, his cultivation level increased tremendously, his lifespan extended, especially after cultivating the [Zhu Long Heavenly Mystic Art] that filled his body with vibrant life essence.

Zhong Yue walked towards him and just as he was about to say something, a voice sounded, “King Yi, I came uninvited but I sincerely hope to participate in the General Assembly of Future Monarchs, would you please indulge my selfish request?”

Zhong Yue turned around and he was a little stunned upon seeing a man and a chariot approaching slowly.

Zhong Yue’s eyes twitched and he said politely, “Brother, have we met before?”

The young man stood up, “I’ve met you but King Yi hasn’t yet.”

Zhong Yue nodded and he asked again when he was about to write a new invitation letter, “Brother, your name?”

“Xuan Ji.”

In an instant, the invitation was done and Zhong Yue smiled, “Alright, I will be waiting for you with open arms during the future monarch meeting, Brother Xuan Ji.”

The young man entered the weird-looking chariot after keeping the invitation away and he left.

“Brother Xuan Ji!”

The young man turned his head around, finding a mirror facing at his face in Zhong Yue’s hand and the young man smiled towards the mirror, “What’s the matter, Mister Yi?”

Zhong Yue stared at the face reflected in the mirror and shook his head, “Nothing, don’t forget to come ten days later!”

In the mirror, Xuan Ji had no face, no eyes, no nose, no mouth, he was entirely faceless, just like a blank sheet of paper.

Zhong Yue turned around and asked Fu Li, “Fu Li, do you still remember how he looked?”

Fu Li was caught off guard by this answer and he replied with a shook, “Strange, as soon as he turned away, I forgot…”

Zhong Yue walked towards Jiang Yiqi and smirked, “Heaven’s messengers have no appearance. Mister Bi Luo is like that and he is also like that. The yellow light in Ancestral Court is most likely him! Heh, I’ve never gotten the chance to beat up Heaven’s disciple yet!”

“Mister, I did not wish to be here.”

Jiang Yiqi’s voice suddenly sounded in Zhong Yue’s mind, “I had no choice because Imperial Emperor Xian Tian wanted me here. Apart from attending the meeting, I am also ordered to enter the battlefield to serve Xian Tian Palace. There wasn’t an option.”

Zhong Yue’s heart tightened and he welcomed Jiang Yiqi happily, “Did King Zi Guang say anything to you?”

When they both got close to each other, Zhong Yue burst out laughing and hugged Jiang Yiqi. They then walked into the fortress happily together, showing not even a sign of uneasiness.

As a human who once sought protection under Jiang Yiqi and served under him before being recruited by Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, there was nothing suspicious when Mister Yi was still on good terms with Jiang Yiqi.

“King Zi Guang only told me to be careful,” replied Jiang Yiqi.

Hearing this, Zhong Yue knew that he had wrongly accused Jiang Yiqi. He did not wish to attend the future monarch meeting, let alone the war. And he was not someone who had brawn but lacked brains.

He was here because Imperial Emperor Xian Tian wanted it!

And King Zi Guang must have known what was coming by telling Jiang Yiqi to be careful. Perhaps, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian wanted to kill Jiang Yiqi!

After becoming the Imperial Emperor, Jiang Yiqi was the first Imperial Emperor among the Zi Wei Galaxy and 3,000 Six Paths Worlds’ human race with the exception of the wild humans in the ancient universe.

As the Human Sovereign, Jiang Yiqi had a very sensitive position, and the fact that he was now an Imperial Emperor had raised the brows of many, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was one of them.

This time, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian might be aiming to kill Jiang Yiqi through another’s hand by sending him into the battlefield!

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian will definitely have me kill Jiang Yiqi! He is extremely wary of the human race, back then, it was him that sealed the Ancestral Star with the Skymetrical Scroll. It was also him that kept close surveillance on the Nong Sovereign until he died of old age! And now, he is all alerted again after Jiang Yiqi became an Imperial Emperor!

Zhong Yue thought suddenly,Imperial Emperor Xian Tian had always been quite easy on Jiang Yiqi. But out of nowhere, he wanted Jiang Yiqi on the battlefield and the future monarch meeting, knowing that he would place Jiang Yiqi in a dangerous position by doing so. Could it be that his demonic form that reached the monarch level first has full control over him right now, resulting in the sudden change in his behavior?
