Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1342: Chapter 536: The Emperor’s Urgency

This sentence almost amounts to Ju Zhang admitting to Fan Kai, I have the intention to act against your Blood God Sect, but it certainly won’t be now.

And this aligns with the current situation.

Within the Blood God Sect, there’s also a very clear understanding of this point.

Indeed, it’s true.

How could the King of Eight Desolates, Ju Zhang, do something so foolish?

"But my Lord..."

"Don’t worry, Protector Fan. Once this Limit Breaking Secret Realm is completely closed, I will contact the True Monarch controlling this secret realm from the Ancestor Realm, and ask him to thoroughly investigate the Limit Breaking Secret Realm. By that time, whether the elites who haven’t emerged are alive or dead, and if dead, the reason for their death, everything will be revealed," Ju Zhang said.

"Well... there’s no other choice," Fan Kai replied helplessly.

"Hmm, contacting the Ancestor Realm’s True Monarch requires time, so for now, please, Protector Fan, take your people to rest at the outer lodge of the Ancestral Land for two or three days and await the feedback from the Ancestor Realm," Ju Zhang arranged.

Ju Zhang must send away Fan Kai and the others, and then, after having the three Eighth Tier members of the Ancestral Land exit from the secret realm and clarify the situation, he can investigate related matters.

Only then can he decide whether to alert the True Monarch of the Ancestral Land.

Upon hearing this, the Left Protector Fan Kai initially intended to directly agree to wait for the result, but just when he was about to agree, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

If the Eight Desolate Royal Court truly intends to deal with their Blood God Sect?

Even if there was no initial plan to deal with it, because of this matter, they might have to deal with it in advance?

Then, staying inside the Eight Desolate Ancestor City would be like waiting to die!

By the time the Eight Desolate King changes his mind, he could easily put him to death.

This is the Eight Desolate Royal Court, with the Ninth Tier and many Eighth Tiers and countless Seventh Tiers stationed.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

Now, at this point, staying inside the Eight Desolate Royal Court, he is entrusting his life and death into someone else’s hands.

If he leaves here, it would be like a dragon returning to the sea.

Once back inside Blood Moon City, he can act according to the attitude and results of the Eight Desolate Alien Race.

Whether to continue the alliance, directly betray, or threaten the Eight Desolate King to give them a satisfactory explanation.

Everything is possible.

His life and death are in his control.

With this thought, the Left Protector Fan Kai understands what his most urgent matter is now.

"My Lord, there’s no need to rest! I have already stayed here for twenty-one days, and many matters within the Divine Sect are waiting for me to address.

I’m taking people back to Blood Moon City now.

As for the changes within the Limit Breaking Secret Realm, I ask my Lord to investigate clearly and give me an account.

Whether the elites who haven’t emerged are alive or dead, and if alive, where they are.

If dead, why they died.

I ask my Lord to give my Blood God Sect an explanation.

Otherwise, I won’t be able to give an account to the Sect Hierarch!

So, I will take these people and leave first," Left Protector Fan Kai said, bowing with repressed anger.

The King of Eight Desolates, Ju Zhang, is also a discerning mind.

Upon hearing Fan Kai’s words, he immediately understands Fan Kai’s thoughts.

He also hesitates in his heart.

If he forces Fan Kai and his group to stay and they turn hostile, it would be easy to annihilate these people.

His choices are more abundant.

But if he forces them to stay, unless he immediately kills them, the Blood God Sect would still find out everything.

Besides, from a rational standpoint and from his heart, he has never considered completely turning against the Blood God Sect now.

On this point, the Eight Desolate Royal Court is also not prepared.

So, to let them go or not?

Not letting them go would be close to starting a war.

Letting them go?

There’s still room for maneuvering in the relationship between the Eight Desolate Royal Court and the Blood God Sect, but it surely has become less intimate than before.

After considering for a few breaths, the King of Eight Desolates makes a decision!

Let them go!

The Eight Desolate Royal Court is not ready to completely turn against the Blood God Sect now.

Direct confrontation now would lead to too many losses.

There’s still a need to find ways to maneuver.

Ten breaths later, Left Protector Fan Kai of the Blood God Sect, along with two Eighth Tier elders and ten surviving elite backbones, boarded the Huweng Giant Bird and left the Eight Desolate Royal Court.

Almost right at the moment they soared, the Left Protector Fan Kai fed several Seventh Tier Star Cores to the Huweng Giant Bird, urging it to accelerate.

Forcing it to fly continuously at maximum speed.

Eager to return to Blood Moon City at once.

Before this, Left Protector Fan Kai truly felt the crisis of life and death!

Not until he was hundreds of miles away from the Eight Desolate Ancestor City did Fan Kai relax slightly.

His eyes finally swept over the surviving ten elite members behind him.

This matter is suspicious!

There is great suspicion!

Normally, even if dealing with the Blood God Sect, the King of Eight Desolates, Ju Zhang, wouldn’t do such a foolish thing.

Yet this matter still happened plainly.

Moreover, judging by Ju Zhang’s performance, it truly doesn’t seem arranged by him.

According to Fan Kai’s speculation, if Ju Zhang had truly slain twenty Blood God Sect elite backbones within the Limit Breaking Secret Realm, he wouldn’t let them leave alive today.

Since they’ve already torn their faces off, why let them leave alive?

But unexpectedly, Ju Zhang let them leave alive.

This makes Left Protector Fan Kai vaguely aware of something amiss.

Feeling that there is great mystery in this matter!

Recently, there have been too many matters within the Blood God Sect.

The Special Envoy was assassinated twice, plus this time.

Each instance seems to have an invisible big hand directing events towards a direction they don’t wish to see.

Fan Kai has already realized this.

Although he hasn’t yet linked it directly to the recently joined Qi Jin, he already has this notion.

Thinking of the assassination actions by adventuring Blood God Sect disciples targeting the Special Envoy, a thought emerges in his mind that scares him: Could the middle and high-level of the Blood God Sect possibly be infiltrated by Human Clan spies?

With this thought, Fan Kai already decides to thoroughly interrogate the ten surviving disciples once he returns.

Especially investigate all middle and high-level personnel behaving oddly recently within the Blood God Sect.

*****

Inside the Imperial Palace of Changle City in Dahong Empire, the Emperor Yang Yun has just sent an urgent message to Punishment Hall Elder Mu Geng using the Mandarin Duck Seal.

[Mu Geng, the Limit Breaking Secret Realm has ended. How is Qi Jin, who participated in the Limit Breaking?]

[Sect Hierarch, Left Protector Fan Kaiyan has said the Limit Breaking Secret Realm has ended, and he is currently bringing people back, but he hasn’t disclosed the details, and it’s inconvenient for me to inquire further.]

[Alright, you keep watch. Once they return, immediately report Qi Jin’s situation to me.]

[Understood.]
