Chapter 149: Powerful Exponent: Peacock King
Outside the Tai Xuan sect, it could be said that the unstable elements were and opportunity, even an existence like the Peacock King had been enticed back into the world.
The appearance of the Bronze Immortal Palace at the Water Cloud lake caused countless numbers of cultivators to head there, like a divine light in the darkness causing all the fireflies to flock towards it, having an indescribable pull.
The bigwigs wanted a shot at immortality, the ordinary cultivators wanted a chance at rewriting their lives, the entire Wei State was in turmoil.
Ye Fan did not plan to return after leaving, in order to escape he had already leaked the information regarding the Bronze Immortal Palace, creating waves of turmoil.
At this moment he was feeling quite vexed, he wanted to traverse the void but was unable to do so, it could be said that he was simply powerless to do so.
“Difficult, difficult, difficult. Is there really no way to do so?” He frowned as he continued to ponder on this dilemma.
The Bronze Immortal Palace had resurfaced once again, this not only caused waves within the southern region, even bigwigs from the distant northern region had come, the effects of this news could be imagined. From the Eastern and Western regions, people from the Ji Family as well as the other Sacred Grounds had also come.
“When this matter finally concludes, the people of the northern region will definitely have to return, can I borrow their strength to do so?” Ye Fan began to search for information regarding the superpowers of the northern region and who had come.
At this moment, Ye Fan was thirty thousand miles away from the Tai Xuan sect, it could be considered sufficiently distant for him to be unfettered, he did not need to look far as he obtained some useful information from the cultivators in the vicinity.
The Sacred Grounds within the Northern region did have some small influence within the Southern Region to be used as chess pieces for accommodating their disciples that were journeying. As Ye Fan made preparations, an astounding piece of news was spread throughout the Southern region.
An exponent of the demonic race, Peacock King, had resurfaced and did not head to the Bronze Immortal Palace. Rather, he went to look for the Ji Family and used a single palm to destroy their sect plaque, thereafter sent their gates flying. This was an extremely large matter!
An ancient aristocratic family that had survived since ancient times, their background was frightening and over the passing of countless years, few people dared to challenge them so.
Smashing the sect plaque of an ancient aristocratic family, knocking down their sect gate, this was an extremely serious matter that could have tremendous repercussions.
On that fateful day, this information was swiftly spread throughout the Southern region like wildfire. The entire Eastern Badlands was already in a huge ruckus and this piece of information further exacerbated the situation.
Who was the Peacock King? He was an exponent of the demonic race and had swept through the entire Southern region eight hundred years ago without any competition. He had been silent for so many years that everyone had already thought of him as having died in a lotus position without any chance of resurfacing. His direct actions against an ancient aristocratic family astonished everyone, what was he planning?
Such a peerless figure had unimaginable influential prowess, a single word or action would cause everyone nearby to take notice, causing a butterfly effect. Could it be that the demonic race was planning to act against the human race? There were many varied interpretations towards this event and the atmosphere of the Southern region immediately grew tense.
The Ji Family which was an ancient aristocratic family was one of the strongest superpowers of the human race, such a powerful family could exterminate countless vassal states. What was the Peacock King planning? By inciting the Ji Family, the outcome would certainly be disastrous.
However, a piece of news was leaked, this was all due to the descendant of the demonic emperor, the Peacock King was acting to take revenge for Yan Ruyu.
Several months earlier, the Ji Family had surrounded the demonic race within the Wei State, wishing to steal the sacred weapon of the demonic emperor, several great demons had died and Yan Ruyu had barely managed to escape.
Although she was the descendant of the demonic emperor, tens of thousands of years had already passed and the glory days had long since faded away, it was impossible for it to continue into perpetuity.
Yan Ruyu had fled in search of experts of the demonic race to protect her, several people were tempted knowing that she was unguarded and had the demonic emperor’s sacred weapon, attacking her from the shadows. As a descendant of the great emperor of the demonic race, how could she have fallen into such dire straits?
When Yan Ruyu finally found the Peacock King, this exponent of the demonic race had been in closed meditation. When he realised what had happened, he immediately activated the death meridians which he had sealed long ago, resurfacing once again to seek justice for her.
Smashing the Ji Family plaque and destroyed the sect gates, this was an extremely serious event that would rarely be seen even after thousands of years.
The Peacock King did not force his way into the Ji Family, such a powerful entity would certainly have unfathomable prowess, if he were to do so, even an exponent like himself would find it difficult to fully extricate himself. The Ji Family was incensed and had immediately sent the command down to find and kill the Peacock King. Even if the Peacock King was famous eight hundred years ago, the Ji Family could not take this lying down.
The people of the world knew that the backgrounds of a Sacred Ground or ancient aristocratic family could not be measured, even if they were at their weakest point, when it came to a critical juncture, there would always be experts that had been hidden for years who appeared, turning the situation around. It was needless to say how deep the backing of the Ji Family was with its current prosperous state, they would definitely want to kill the Peacock King.
“This is a earth shaking piece of news, the Peacock King wishes to show his might!”
“If they were to have a head-on collision, the Peacock King would certainly be unable to defend himself against the countless experts of the Ji Family. However, would he be so nice as to wait for them to give him a beating? I’m afraid the situation will not end so simply.”
“The Peacock King, that is an existence that has been referred to as a peerless exponent, it’s difficult to say who will take a loss. The Ji Family does have the initiative though, they are just too immense.”
Everyone was in heated discussion, their views were vastly different.
Ye Fan’s heart trembled, the Peacock King was powerful beyond imagination while the Ji Family was impossible to estimate, this could be inferred from the discussions of all the cultivators.
A single day passed before another piece of astonishing news was spread, the Peacock King had actually appeared once again within the Wei State, killing a venerated elder of the Ji Family that was a guest within the Tai Xuan sect.
This was simply too shocking! As this news spread, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air, the Peacock King was clearly preparing for a big battle, he was not planning to merely humiliate the Ji Family.
