Chapter 578 - 578 Azure Dragon City! (1)
578 Azure Dragon City! (1)
“Alright, go ahead. But remember, just deal with Jin Jia along the way. The purpose of your trip is to compensate the Azure Dragon Domain.”
“Compensate the Azure Dragon Domain?”
The Bishop of Ling Yun was puzzled.
“Yes, promise the Azure Dragon lineage some benefits. Yes… How about this? 30 Original Crystals and 300 Original Dust. Consider it compensation from the Holy Light Sanctuary to the Azure Dragon Domain. We apologize deeply for what happened to Jin Jia.”
The golden phantom continued, “Lower your att.i.tude. Now is not the time to fall out with the Four Square Regions. I’ve been plotting for many years. What I want is not just the Four Square Regions! It’s their ancient martial arts inheritance! Do you understand?”
“Understood!”
“There’s one more thing. If possible, get involved in the matter of the ancient ruins of the Four Square Regions.”
“Alright.”
“All of you, retreat. I’m about to break through. When I break through, the Four Square Regions… can be destroyed with a raise of my hand!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden phantom disappeared, leaving only a few cardinals looking at each other in the hall.
These people all had surprised expressions.
The Saint Emperor… was about to break through!
After the golden phantom completely disappeared, the hall was in an uproar.
“The Saint Emperor is already at the peak of the ninth-stage Original Realm. If he takes another step forward…”
“That’s right!”
“That means that the Saint Emperor is about to break through to the legendary Heaven Splitting Realm!”
“Heaven Splitting Realm…”
“Then our days…”
“I’m afraid it’ll be even more difficult…”
The few cardinals discussed what the Saint Emperor had just said.
Ling Yun was stunned on the spot.
The power of this realm was unimaginable to them.
Although the few of them were cardinals who were second only to one person in the human population, they had not had a good day after becoming cardinals.
Although the Holy Light Saint Emperor mainly cultivated the power of light, his methods were extremely ruthless. As long as what they did did did not satisfy this high and mighty Saint Emperor, there would definitely be a punishment that would make them tremble in fear.
Now that they heard from the Holy Light Saint Emperor that he was about to break through, they were not happy at all.
What followed was even more turbulent fear. The news that the Saint Emperor was about to break through made the Cardinals present tremble even more.
“Ling Yun, don’t worry too much.”
After a while.
Someone patted Ling Yun’s shoulder and he came back to his senses.
“Shuang Xue… I…” Ling Yun turned around. It was Shuang Xue.
Ling Yun was an orphan. It was Shuang Xue’s parents who adopted him. He and Shuang Xue had grown up together. After becoming cardinals, the two of them had advised each other many times. They had avoided punishment many times and were very tacit partners.
“Just do as the Saint Emperor says. Nothing will go wrong!”
“Hmm… This is not the first time I’ve done such a lowly thing. It’s just that there are too many variables in this ruin. I have a bad feeling.”
Ling Yun was dejected, as if his strength had been drained.
“Ling Yun! Pull yourself together. We siblings have pa.s.sed many difficulties. If there’s anything you can’t do, send me a message in time!”
Shuang Xue could not bear to see Ling Yun like this.
She also knew that there was a huge variable in the matter of the ruins. If he was not careful, things would not meet the Holy Light Saint Emperor’s expectations. Then the consequences of Ling Yun…
“That’s the only way. I can only improvise. I hope the Saint Emperor is satisfied…”
“That’s right. You have to have confidence in yourself. Although you’re not as strong as the Saint Emperor, you’re still a powerhouse!” Shuang Xue opened her arms and hugged Ling Yun.
“Shuang Xue, if the Saint Emperor is dissatisfied with what I do, don’t speak up for me.”
Although Ling Yun understood everything Shuang Xue said, he still felt that this matter was not simple.
“What are you talking about? You can definitely do it. You haven’t even gone yet and you’re already retreating. This isn’t your style!”
“Alright, you should hurry up and go on a mission.”
Ling Yun was so worried that he did not realize that there was no longer any discussion in the hall. The few cardinals had already left the hall, leaving only the two of them.
“Be careful!”
Seeing that everyone had left, Shuang Xue hurriedly bade farewell to Ling Yun and went out on a mission.
They could not fail, delay, or make any mistakes in their missions!
Ever since he found out that something had happened to Jin Jia, Ling Yun had been feeling uneasy. Now that the Saint Emperor had arranged this mission for him, the burden on his shoulders became even heavier.
In this mission, it was easy to appease the Azure Dragon Domain. After all, the Light Domain had done this to many Domains in order to develop.
It was not the first time they had been discovered after infiltrating the central management of another Domain.
He had dealt with it a few times before.
The tricky thing was that no one knew where Jin Jia had hidden. Moreover, the benefits the Saint Emperor had given Jin Jia had already raised him to the Medium-grade Original Realm, which was equivalent to his strength.
Fortunately, he heard that Jin Jia was already seriously injured. If he could find him successfully, it should not be difficult for Lin Yun to deal with him with his own strength.
What worried him the most was the ruins. He did not know if he could escape unscathed after getting involved.
But what was the use of worrying? As a cardinal, he could not have any thoughts of his own. He was just a dog wagging its tail to make a living.
If the Saint Emperor was happy, he would give them a piece of meat. If he was unhappy, he would beat them up.
