Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Yun Qi Ling found out the woman who killed his sixth son was still alive and the man next to her was a prominent Celestial Alchemist who clearly had a good relationship with Tie Tai He, the Left Guardian of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, he knew it was over. Not to mention Tie Tai He was the Left Guardian of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, but Tie Tai He was also a Seven Star Celestial Duke, a first-class powerhouse in the Wasteland. Even when Tie Tai He had not broken through, just as the left guardian, it was easy enough for Tie Tai He to deal with the entire Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom’s Imperial family.

In the end, Yun Qi Ling said as he looked at his subordinates, “I’ll try my best to resolve this matter on my own. I won’t implicate the rest of the Imperial family or you.” He had fallen into a haze of despair earlier because he could not avenge his sixth son. He had temporarily tried to escape from the reality of the impending disaster. However, he regained his senses when he saw how anxious his subordinates were.

“Your Majesty...”

Upon hearing Yun Qi Ling’s words, the expressions of Yun Qi Ling’s subordinates changed. “Your Majesty, is there nothing we can do to right the situation? Maybe we can apologize to the woman and the prominent Celestial Alchemist next to her?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. As the saying goes, ‘Where there’s life, there’s hope.’ If we plead with them, we might be able to escape this disaster.”

“Your Majesty, we can’t do without you in the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom!”

Yun Qi Ling’s subordinates were of the opinion that they should apologize and ask for forgiveness from the woman and the prominent Celestial Alchemist next to her.

However, Yun Qi Ling shook his head when he heard his subordinates’ words. He felt they should put themselves in the woman and the prominent Celestial Alchemist’s shoes for a moment. No matter how kind they were, they would not give in under such circumstances. After all, they had circulated the woman’s portraits in Tai Yi City.

Yun Qi Ling felt resentment and unwillingness rose in his heart. If it were not for the prominent Celestial Alchemist, the woman would have already died. He shook his head, he knew it was over for him. A sense of helplessness welled up in his heart. The only thing he wanted now was to try to keep the rest of the members of the Imperial family and his subordinates safe.

At this moment, a loud and energetic voice entered the hall, echoing in every corner. “You’re the Emperor of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom, Yun Qi Ling?”

The expressions of Yun Qi Ling and his subordinates changed drastically.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two gusts of wind blew into the hall as two figures suddenly appeared. One of them was a tall and burly middle-aged man while the other was an old man with medium stature.

The tall and burly middle-aged man had a particularly conspicuous cinnabar mole in between his eyebrows.

On the other hand, the old man with medium stature looked rather ordinary. He would not have stood out in a sea of people.

Upon seeing the two newcomers, Yun Qi Ling and the others hastily bowed in fear.

Yun Qi Ling then asked in a small voice, “Who are you?”

The old men with a medium build replied in a hoarse voice, “I’m a Guardian Elder of the Martial Dragon Celestial Kingdom, Liu Qi Zhong!” Then, he raised one of his hands, revealing a token that was unique to Guardian Elders from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.

As the Emperor of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom, which belonged to the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect, Yun Qi Ling recognized the token in the old man’s hand at a glance. There was no doubt the old man was an elder from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect even though it was his first time seeing the token in person. He had seen it before in a Memory Celestial Talisman issued by Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.

In the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect, only a Three Talents Celestial Duke or above were qualified to become a Guardian Elder. Guardian Elders had the highest statuses among other elders in the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.

For example, Teng Qing who was killed by Tie Tai He was just an inner elder of the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect. His rank was lower than a Guardian Elder. Although Teng Qing had broken through and became a Three Talents Celestial Duke, he was not strong enough compared to the other Three Talent Celestial Dukes to become a Guardian Elder. After all, he had just very recently become a Three Talent Celestial Duke.

Naturally, for people of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom, they still did not dare to be disrespectful toward someone like Teng Qing, let alone a Guardian Elder from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect who had a higher status!

“I’m the Emperor of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom, Yun Qi Ling. Greetings, Elder Liu!”

After Yun Qi Ling greeted the old man, his subordinates followed suit, respectfully greeting the old man.

“I came today to announce that from henceforth, the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom no longer belongs to our Martial Dragon Celestial Sect. The Tai Yi Celestial Sect has given us the two intermediate-rank Celestial Kingdom in exchange for the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom,” the old man said solemnly as he looked at Yun Qi Ling. There was no inflection in his voice at all as he continued to say, “From now on, the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom will belong to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect!”

Halfway through listening to the old man’s words, Yun Qi Ling and his subordinates were thoroughly stunned. However, when they finished listening to the old man’s words, their expressions changed drastically.

Although all of them had expected some form of punishment from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, they did not expect the revenge to come so swiftly and mercilessly. It was a truly domineering move! For revenge, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect had exchanged two intermediate-rank Celestial Kingdoms for the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect’s Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom.

Once the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom belonged to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, the sect would be able to do as they pleased to their kingdom would not be able to have their way with them.

Yun Qi Ling looked at the old man anxiously and implored, “Elder Liu, the Celestial Stone we sent as tributes to the sect every year is more than that of other intermediate-rank Celestial Kingdoms... The sect can’t abandon us! Elder Liu, as long as you don’t hand our kingdom over to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, from now on, our Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom is willing to double the Celestial Stones we usually give!”

Yun Qi Ling knew very well that if the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom remained under the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect, even if the Left Guardian of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect or the Tai Yi Celestial Sect wanted to retaliate, they would only be able to deal with him alone. The Tai Yi Celestial Sect would not be able to touch the entire Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom. If the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom were given to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, the Imperial family was bound to be overthrown!

“The sect leader has already agreed to this matter... Everything has already been decided,” the old man said tonelessly as he looked at Yun Qi Ling whose face had turned pale.

After that, the old man no longer deigned to look at Yun Qi Ling. Instead, he turned to look at the tall and burly man who had come with him. His indifferent expression, when faced with Yun Qi Ling, had vanished without a trace once he looked at the tall and burly man. Instead, a respectful expression appeared on his face as he said, “Guardian Tie, from now on, the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom belongs to your Tai Yi Celestial Sect.” He added, “In fact, this is just a trivial matter. There’s no need to trouble yourself to personally come over. You can just send an elder of your sect to accompany me.” The old man was extremely reverent and did not dare to be rude at all when faced with the tall and burly middle-aged man.

“Guardian Tie?!” Upon hearing the way the old man addressed the tall and burly middle-aged man, it was naturally not difficult for Yun Qi Ling and his men to figure out the tall and burly middle-aged man’s identity.

Thud!

After realizing the identity of the middle-aged man, Yun Qi Ling was the first to fall to his knees. He implored, “Guardian Tie, I was the one who asked my subordinates to distribute the portraits of that young lady... This matter has nothing to do with the others. I hope Guardian Tie will investigate this matter thoroughly... I, the Emperor of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom, Yun Qi Ling, am willing to bear the full responsibility for this!” The only thing he desperately wanted now was to protect the remaining Imperial family.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Yun Qi Ling’s men followed suit. Their bodies trembled as they fell to their knees as well.

It was clear to them now that the tall and burly middle-aged man was Tie Tai He, the Left Guardian of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect and a Seven Star Celestial Duke!

Tie Tai He glanced at Yun Qi Ling, who was kneeling on the ground, and scoffed before he said, “It’s not up to you to decide if you alone will suffer the consequences for this matter... From today onward, there will be a new Imperial family of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom... The current Imperial family will all be exterminated!” His voice was cold and intimidating.

As soon as Tie Tai He finished speaking, he used a Communication Celestial Talisman to order an elder from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect who had accompanied him here to destroy the current Imperial family of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom!

“No!!!” Yun Qi Ling cried out in despair. He, naturally, understood Tie Tai He’s intention. His eyes were brimming with regret and despair at this moment. He truly regretted his actions. He regretted provoking the woman in the portraits.

Faced with impending death, Yun Qi Ling’s feelings changed abruptly. “Sixth son... you really dragged the entire family with you!” He seemed to resent Shi Lei now.

Tie Tai He only scoffed before he raised a hand and took Yun Qi Ling’s life.

Upon seeing this, Yun Qi Ling’s men trembled even more violently. They knew that the current Imperial family of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom was soon to be no more. As for their survival, it all depended on the person in front of them.

“I’ll give you a chance to survive... Assist the new Imperial family of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom well. If you have other intentions, I’ll send you straight to hell,” Tie Tai He calmly said as he glanced at the people kneeling on the ground and said calmly.

“Thank you, Guardian Tie!”

“Guardian Tie, we will never betray the new Imperial family!”

Upon discovering they were allowed to live, they were filled with joy.
