Chapter 1928: Arrival of the Prince
Translator: Legge
“Take him down,”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue waved his hand.
Some Earth Immortal guards advanced and brought Su Zimo away from the place.
“County Governor, I think that lad is just an extremely ordinary Black Immortal. Why do you think so highly of him and even explain things to him personally?”
Looking at Su Zimo’s back view, Liu Yu could not help but ask.
!!
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue shook his head gently. “It’s nothing much. I just feel that this lad is special. Of course, I might have misjudged him.”
The City Lord of Absolute Thunder City said, “Among the many lowlifes who came this time round, there are a few Black Immortals with some methods and talent. There’s even a woman who ascended after crossing the Four of Nine Heavenly Tribulation. In less than 5,000 years, she has already cultivated to the Level 9 Black Essence realm.”
“There’s another person with a strong physique that’s different from ordinary people. He has exuberant vitality and is invincible in melee combat.”
“There’s also a lowlife who practices the sword. His sword technique is pa.s.sable and his comprehension of the sword is not bad,”
At that point, the City Lord of Absolute Thunder City paused for a moment before continuing, “Compared to these lowlifes, that person earlier on was truly nothing.”
“No matter what, the scale of this hunting game is ma.s.sive and there are many people. It will definitely be more exciting and interesting than before.”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue chuckled.
…
10 days later, Absolute Thunder City.
Nearly a hundred thousand Black Immortals of the lower worlds were gathered in the City Lord’s residence. At a glance, it was a dense black ma.s.s.
The City Lord’s residence of Absolute Thunder City was even more majestic than Dragon Abyss City. The hundred thousand Black Immortals were accommodated with ease in a s.p.a.cious square!!
Su Zimo observed secretly in the crowd as well.
There were close to a hundred thousand Black Immortals and most of them were Grade 8 or 9 Black Immortals. Only a few were Grade 7 Black Immortals—it was clear how large the scale of this Hunting Meet was!
At the front of the square, there were hundreds of stone steps that extended up to an open-air hall before stopping.
At the end of the stone steps was the main seat of the hall.
Both sides of the hall were already filled with people. All of them had relaxed expressions as they ate the immortal fruits in front of them and drank wine, consuming merrily.
“Do you see that? Those who can sit in that hall are all City Lords of the major cities!”
“There are also some sect masters of immortal sects. The one with brown hair and a ruddy complexion is the sect master of Heavenly Mountain Immortal Sect. It’s said that he’s also a Perfected Immortal expert!”
A few cultivators in the crowd discussed softly.
Although they were paragons and monster incarnates in the lower worlds, in the upper world, they had fought for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. Most of them had already lost their sharpness and edges.
Everyone knew very well that even if they had already cultivated to Grade 8 or 9 Black Immortals, they were no different from ants in the eyes of these powerful Exalted Immortals!
“Hehe, all the City Lords and important figures of Green Cloud County are present. This is my chance to make a name for myself!”
In the crowd, a burly man with a strong physique and a ferocious expression grinned with a burning gaze.
Everyone present knew that given their cultivation, ident.i.ty and status, they would not have the chance to come into contact with the Exalted Immortals in the hall at the front usually.
This Hunting Meet was an opportunity for everyone to change their fates!
Su Zimo’s expression was calm as water as he surveyed his surroundings.
He could vaguely sense that this Hunting Meet was definitely not simple.
Everyone wanted to be the hundred survivors. However, in reality, most of them were only one of the remaining 90,000-odd.
In the crowd, Su Zimo discovered a few cultivators that were not to be trifled with.
The few of them exuded a dangerous aura.
Right then, Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat as he turned around and looked at a woman beside him.
The woman was dressed in purple and her long hair was tied simply behind her head. She had a voluptuous figure and fair skin. At first glance, her side profile did not seem outstanding.
However, this woman was extremely nice to look at. With just a few more glances, one would feel that she had an extraordinary aura and an indescribable beauty.
Su Zimo did not merely take a few more glances. Instead, he glared at the purple-robed woman for a long time.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, at their cultivation realm, one would definitely sense being stared at like this.
However, the purple-robed woman did not turn back the entire time. Her expression was calm and her breathing did not fluctuate at all, as though she did not notice anything.
“Interesting,”
Su Zimo retracted his gaze.
He sensed a familiar aura from the purple-robed woman that was similar to Hidden Death Sect in Tianhuang Mainland.
Even he had almost ignored the existence of the purple-robed woman!
This was an extremely dangerous a.s.sa.s.sin!
Right then, a figure rode on rainbow auspicious clouds and descended slowly above the City Lord’s residence, looking down at everyone.
“Greetings, County Governor,”
The City Lords in the hall, including some sect masters, stood up one after another and cupped their fists with respectful expressions.
The entire world belonged to the king.
Xu s.h.i.+ had once told Su Zimo that in the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom, all the major sects, factions and families had to obey the rules of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom!
The rule of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom over this land was even stronger than that of the Great Zhou Empire of Tianhuang Mainland over the North Region!
“Everyone, there’s no need to stand on courtesy,”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue said, “I’ve just received news that Prince Yuan Zuo will be coming to Absolute Thunder City personally to watch the Hunting Meet.”
“The hundred people who survive this Hunting Meet will also obtain the chance to serve Prince Yuan Zuo!”
Whoos.h.!.+
Instantly, a commotion broke out in the crowd.
“Country Lord Yuan Zuo is coming as well?”
“This is a rare opportunity!”
“If I can stand out at this Hunting Meet and obtain the favor of Prince Yuan Zuo, who will dare to look down on me in the future? Who will dare to call me a lowlife?!”
This was a chance for them to ascend through the ranks in a single leap!
In the square, many Black Immortals were excited and discussions broke out.
Unlike the clamor in the square, the City Lords and sect masters of various factions in the hall were nonchalant and merely smiled indifferently with mocking expressions.
“These lowlife ants are dreaming of a comeback because of the Hunting Meet? Fufu.”
“That’s where our fun lies,”
The City Lords and sect masters chuckled.
Because they were too far away and there were close to a hundred thousand Black Immortals in the square, almost no one could hear what the City Lords were saying.
Only Su Zimo frowned slightly with a dark look in his eyes.
He possessed the Green Lotus bloodline and his hearing and vision were shockingly strong—he had heard everything clearly!
This Hunting Meet was definitely not that simple.
Right then, immortal music sounded from the distant horizon. Countless instruments played at the same time, interweaving into a decadent sound.
Instantly, the crowd went silent.
Everyone subconsciously looked up.
In the skies, 3,000 beauties walked in a graceful manner. All of them wore palace robes and were incomparably beautiful, resembling fairies from the nine heavens.
Some of the women held flower baskets and raised their slender hands. Pink petals scattered and fell gently like a rain of flowers, pleasing to the eyes.
Some of the women carried zithers and raised their jade-like fingers, creating a pleasant sound.
Some of the women held jade flutes and exhaled in a lovely manner as the sound of the flute lingered.
Among the 3,000 women, a carriage advanced slowly.
A young and handsome man leaned against the carriage. His eyes were like gems in the deep sea that shone with a strange glint. The corners of his lips curled up slightly and his smile was slightly evil, emitting a charming aura.
