571 569 Sky Fox Emperor Race (2/2)

Something bad had happened. It seemed to have happened from the east, from within the country's capital, making it tough for one to tell the direction.

Fengshui and fate divination were like that. Even someone whose attainment was as high as his wasn't able to make a correct deduction.

------

Somewhere in the Cloud World, a certain void fissure...

A exquisitely handsome young man was speeding swiftly through the spiritual river. Not much later he even directly broke through a space pillar, stepping into the chaotic void. In just a short moment he found something similar to a palace, but also like a large boat.

It was located within the space layers, unable to seen with the naked eye. When the young man stepped into this location, he had arrived.

Walking on the luxuriously decorated ship, the hundreds of warriors dressed in spiritual artifacts all half-knelt as he walked by.

If the Donglin Cloud Continent cultivators were here they would definitely notice that even the most normal servant here was Grade Four Xiantian.

All the warriors in spiritual armor were Grade Six and above, which was the so-called Grade Six dao soldiers. With no exception, they all had characteristics of the fox race.

The young man was used to it, not bothering at all. He stepped into the lower floor and pushed open the door to one of the halls.

At this moment, the difference to the ship was that only this place didn't have any decorations or luxurious daily objects. It gave off an elegant and clean aura.

The moment he opened the door the young man heard a voice rose up. \”Is it Mofei?\”

The old voice had a penetrating power far stronger than normal people, like that of a needle piercing the heart.

The young man instantly bowed. \”It is Xue Mofei!\”

Beyond the hall doors, it was pitch black. Even with Xue Mofei's cultivation, he was unable to see the situation within, his eyes filled with respect.

\”Openly going to spy on that Zong Shou, you really are bold.\”

He continued to scold, \”If it wasn't for me being on alert, even if you used the Illusionary Heart Mirror to cover your tracks, you would have been noticed by him. Are you determined to spoil my plans before you stop?\”

Xue Mofei didn't dare to argue, keeping silent. He only wanted to know what kind of person who had assassinated Xue Moyan and ascended the throne at such a young age was.

\”Did you gain anything from this trip?\”

\”Yes!\” Xue Mofei kowtowed to the ground, \”When I was at Gantian Mountain City, looking at the people and the races, they all adore him. The Zong family direct bloodline has been wiped out, leaving only some fortunate ones who all surrendered. Those Blood Cloud Cavalry are extremely strong. Our Xue Family probably came too late. It wouldn't be easy to win back the power from the Zong family…\”

\”Which means that we can't take any advantage of Zong Shou?\” That voice was filled with anger, his intent like a raging wave surging out from the depths of the room.

Xue Mofei's expression didn't change, shaking his head slightly. \”To outsiders it is indeed so! However, for our Xue family, it might not be the case. After all, he is the Sky Fox bloodline. As long as we act on the bloodline, if the method used is good, Zong Shou can be used by our race. However, this kid has the Sky Burning blood, and we need to solve that first. If not, our Xue family blood won't be able to suppress him!\”

\”Attack the bloodline? Based on what you said, you want me to reduce my own lifespan?\”

The voice was flat, but filled with a questioning intent. Xue Mofei didn't dare to argue, staying on the ground.

Luckily that voice turned gentler, \”Forget it! Seven-tail blood originally could only be suppressed by the nine-tail race. If my Xue family can return to the Cloud World, what is five hundred years of lifespan? That Zong family probably treats Gantian as an iron bowl they managed. It seems like we have to let them know that only our Xue Family is the Sky Fox imperial race!\”

Xue Mofei instantly stood up, his eyes shining with joy. Then he frowned, filled with new worry. \” I am worried about that Dragon Shadow and Aokun! Zong Shou's strength is also great. Spirit Realm cultivators can't enter the Cloud World, so we can't do anything about him. That Blood Cloud Cavalry isn't ordinary. He could even go up against Shenxiao and bring him down…\”

The voice was filled with cold disdain, \”Dragon Shadow, Aokun? What is there to fear? There are too many methods to restrict them. Aren't you worried about the Sky Burning blood of Zong Shou?

\”There is no need to care, you are just too knowledgeable. That is actually the most lethal weakness he has. We don't need to be worried about the Blood Cloud Cavalry. Before our Xue family elite dao soldiers are all here we will have already snatched Gantian Mountain!\” he stated arrogantly.

Gantian Mountain's Hanyan Palace, within the wide Chongzheng Hall...

Zong Shou exhaled a mouthful of air onto a squarish jade. He pressed it down, and instantly a fresh red seal formed on the yellow silk document.
