Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 2525: The Heavenly Moon Empire Yields

Several decades ago, Jian Chen had grievances with both sects, and the grievances ran deep.

Of course, out of the two sects, Jian Chen hated the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds the most.

Although he had old grievances with the Earth Spirit sect, all his conflicts with the sect were out in the open. On the other hand, the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds appeared to be extremely amiable and held Jian Chen in great esteem, yet at a crucial moment, one of their Godkings actually disguised himself and tried to assassinate Jian Chen while the war between the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian and the Empyrean Demon Cult waged on.

Jian Chen could remember the assassination attempt like it was yesterday. He had an extremely deep impression of it. If it were not for the fact that he had some trump cards, he would have died at the hands of that Godking long ago.

“Let them in and bring them here,” Jian Chen said to the attendant calmly.

Several decades ago, before he had left the Cloud Plane, the Heavenly Moon Empire was an insurmountable existence in his eyes, an ancient empire that he could not provoke.

But now, they were nothing in his eyes.

Even if he ignored Ming Dong, he could deal with the entire empire alone.

Very soon, the guests from the Heavenly Moon Empire arrived. There were a total of three people, the current emperor of the Heavenly Moon Empire and two ancestral emperors who had abdicated many years ago.

The two ancestral emperors were old men. They were dignified, and their eyes shone brightly. They had a majestic gait, and they gave off a natural sense of authority.

This had been naturally established after holding a high position in the empire for many years.

However, right now, they completely concealed their presences in the Tian Yuan clan. They did their best to appear ordinary. They had come fearfully.

As for the current emperor, he was a middle-aged man with a striking appearance. He wore dragon robes and gave off the dignified sense of an emperor. However, he did hide it.

These three important members of the Heavenly Moon Empire arrived in the Tian Yuan clan carefully. They were cautious with all their actions, unwilling to show any disrespect.

“Seventh Heavenly Layer and Second Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes,” Jian Chen glanced past the two ancestral emperors and determined their cultivation levels.

The current emperor was a peak Godking.

The three of them bowed when they saw Jian Chen. They did their best to maintain a low profile. As a matter of fact, they even showed some respect.

They dared not show any rudeness towards the patriarch who had suddenly returned, as they had already learnt some things about the events of the Tian Yuan clan in the past few days.

It was the patriarch right before them, the one who did not give off any pressure and seemed just like an ordinary person, who expelled ten Primordial realm protectors swiftly.

Even the Eighth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime, protector Shan, had been injured by him.

Although it had only been a few decades, the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan’s strength had risen in an unbelievable manner. In the eyes of all the protectors, Jian Chen’s current cultivation could be described as unfathomable.

The ancestral emperors greeted Jian Chen first and exchanged some pleasantries casually before approaching the main topic. They wanted to form an alliance with the Tian Yuan clan.

Jian Chen remained silent and did not reply. However, Mo Xingfeng replied as the emperor of the Pingtian Empire, “With the strength of your Heavenly Moon Empire, you have no right to form an alliance with us. After all, even if we include the Earth Spirit sect and the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds, you only have four Infinite Primes, while our Tian Yuan clan has a Sword God Army that can sweep through your lands, let alone our protectors.”

The ancestral emperors and emperor of the Heavenly Moon Empire fell quiet. The Sword God Army of the Tian Yuan clan was known for their strength in the southern region of the Cloud Plane. Even though there were only ten thousand in number, the entire army was composed of cultivators at God or beyond. The number of Overgods amounted to a third of the entire army, and there were even quite a few Godkings.

Additionally, the Sword God Army had grasped a battle formation. Once they fell into formation, their battle prowess would multiply. Through a formation scroll from Ming Dong, they could even stand up to Primordial realm experts if they gathered all their strength together.

“Our Heavenly Moon Empire is willing to yield to the Tian Yuan clan and become a subsidiary,” said one of the ancestral emperors in the end.

The situation across the entire Cloud Plane had changed with the formation of the Righteous Alliance and the Four Symbols Alliance. All the organisations belonged to one of the two alliances. Apart from the Tian Yuan clan, there were no exceptions.

The Heavenly Moon Empire originally belonged to the Four Symbols Alliance, but they were expelled for some reason and were now independent.

The Heavenly Moon Empire had tried to yield to the Tian Yuan clan several times, but protector Xiang would hinder them every time, resulting in the matter’s failure.

Mo Xingfeng dared not accept the Heavenly Moon Empire. Instead, he looked at Jian Chen.

Jian Chen lowered his head in throught. After careful consideration, he nodded in the end and allowed the Heavenly Moon Empire to yield to the Tian Yuan clan.

Neither the Tian Yuan clan or the Pingtian Empire sought complete domination. However, they did need to expand if it was appropriate.

The two ancestral emperors of the Heavenly Moon Empire beamed. They immediately clasped their fists towards Jian Chen and bowed. They believed the Heavenly Moon Empire would truly be free of worries now that they had joined the Tian Yuan clan. They no longer had to worry about the greedy eyes of the organisations that were part of the Four Symbols Alliance.

The ancestral emperors left the Tian Yuan clan very soon and announced that their Heavenly Moon Empire had become a subsidiary of the Tian Yuan clan as quickly as they could.

Immediately, the Heavenly Moon Empire was in uproar, but many of the elders in the Earth Spirit sect were unhappy. The ancestor of the Earth Spirit sect was in thought as well, rather unwilling to accept this reality.

As for the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds, the elders who knew about the assassination attempt on Jian Chen felt their hearts grow heavy. They felt an ill omen.

The ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds revealed an extremely horrible expression.

He had actually secretly allowed the assassination in the past. He had wanted to shift the blame of Jian Chen’s death onto the Earth Spirit sect, which would lead to conflict between the Earth Spirit sect and the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian.

“The elder who went to assassinate Jian Chen is dead, but Jian Chen is still alive. I wonder if Jian Chen knows who that elder was. If he does and comes to our sect, it’ll be a disaster.”

“I hope the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, Jian Chen, doesn’t know the elder’s identity,” the ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds tried to comfort himself as he held onto this last sliver of hope.

Jian Chen finally managed to free up some time. He gathered with his friends from the Tian Yuan clan in the forbidden grounds and celebrated together.

He also met the princess of the Thousand Lotus Empire who was always with Ming Dong, Yun Xiaoyan.

He had once clashed with Yun Xiaoyan in the Neptunean Divine Palace. Now that he learnt that Yun Xiaoyan and Ming Dong were bound by their former lives, it completely amazed him and left him taken aback.
