Chapter 752
All Earth Immortal Realm warriors were gone, leaving only five Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors . But they didn"t have to worry about Chen Tianxian or Wu Guangde sneaking up on them anymore . It was possible for the five to fight back and defend themselves . Last time, they had managed to maul Chen Tianxian and Wu Guangde heavily .
They went on attacking . It had been 10 days, but there were no signs of Chen Tianxian and Wu Guangde . The five put their mind at ease and focused on pounding the Wicked Bead day and night .
Feng Dynasty and Qi Dynasty remained silent as always . They sent no more warriors than the scouts .
However, the truth was…
The two dynasties only appeared to be calm . Storm was gathering under the peaceful surface . The two dynasties had been in heated discussion .
In a secret hall of the City of Feng, representatives of major families of the Central Imperial Universe were gathered here . Leaders of eight or nine families were all present in the hall .
They had all learned about what happened to the north of City of Leng . They gathered a certain amount of information of Lu Li . They now understood that he was a n.o.body and was only an excuse that Jun Hongye had adopted .
Of course!
Lu Li was a name well-known at the moment because he had in his possession a Relic . Many had died for the sake of the Relic .
The families were here arguing—whether they should partic.i.p.ate in the fight over the Relic!
Any family that could gain the Relic would soar up immediately . The family would become the most powerful one among the four major universes and five minor universes . Any Semi-G.o.d Realm warrior would see his or her abilities enhanced after owning the Relic and was likely to beat all the other warriors of the same realm .
It was believed that Lu Li could not control the Wicked Bead to its fullest extent . At his realm, there was no way that he could take complete control of the Wicked Bead . A Relic was not an average artifact . It must be able to deliver more than simple defense .
Right now, there were several Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors trying to crack it . But Feng Family and Qi Family together had nine Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors, and adding those from other families, the total number of Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors was 15 .
If they could conquer the City of Chaos and seal off the portal to the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos, they could go after an easy prey .
It was not difficult for 15 Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors to kill seven . By that time, the Wicked Bead would belong to the Central Imperial Universe . Either Qi Family or the Feng Family could make a clean sweep of the universes after obtaining the bead .
The question was—
Which family should have the bead? Qi Family and the Feng Family were not in peaceful terms during the past few years . Whichever family had the Wicked Bead would most certainly crack down on the other one or even wipe out the other one entirely to seek for unification of the Central Imperial Universe .
There was another thing that must be sorted out!
On the off chance that the plan could not hold water, and some of the enemy Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors fled, the Central Imperial Universe would descend into an utter bloodbath . Many would die . A random attack from a Semi-G.o.d Realm warrior could turn an entire city into dust . It was going to be catastrophic for the Central Imperial Universe .
What was more…
What was more…
There would still be causes for worry even after all the pa.s.sageways to the Purgatory of Primordial Chaos were sealed off or destroyed . Warriors from the other universes could use their skills to get through the barriers between different universes .
The four universes were connected together . If a huge cost could be afforded, the barrier between two universes could be brought down in half a year .
If within half a year, the owner family of the Wicked Bead could not take control of it, then the family would face the allied invasion from families of other universes . By then, all families of the Central Imperial Universe could be wiped out and the Central Imperial Universe would be divided up among the winning parties…
Therefore!
In the City of Feng, the several families had been arguing for over a month but no conclusion had been reached . Judging by the looks of it, there could never be a conclusion because neither Qi Family nor Feng Family were convinced by the other one .
"Opportunity knocks but once . Progenitor Qi, Progenitor Feng, please make a decision now . That bead will be cracked by them if we wait any longer . "
"That is right . We need to have the bead first before we can talk about anything else . We must keep the bead in the Central Imperial Universe . We will face even worse results if Jun Hongye, Wu Guangde, or Chen Tianxian get to the bead first . "
"How can we fight for the bead before we settle on the matter of owners.h.i.+p? We may be able to kill those Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors, but we also may end up murdering each other . That will make the Central Imperial Universe a living h.e.l.l . In that case, what was the difference of owning the bead or not?"
"Right . Feng Family must have the bead or else we will not contribute!"
"Hmm, maybe we should set aside the issue of sharing spoils but concentrate on how to kill those old freaks . One more thing, what about the reaction from their families? Which one of us can fight back those families when they work together to get through the barriers of the universes?"
"Hmm, maybe we should set aside the issue of sharing spoils but concentrate on how to kill those old freaks . One more thing, what about the reaction from their families? Which one of us can fight back those families when they work together to get through the barriers of the universes?"
"…"
The hall was full of noises . Qi Family and Feng Family progenitors said nothing . The two were bored and fed up with the constant arguing between the other warriors .
"That is enough!"
Feng Family Progenitor finally spoke . He waved his hand and said, "Let"s go back . Feng Family gives up on the bead . We will stay out of it and you can enjoy as you want . "
Qi Family progenitor twitched his long white eyebrows and said with a grin, "Brother Feng, where is this anger coming from? We are having a discussion, aren"t we? How about we give you the bead? But you have to swear in the name of Emperor Heaven Reverse that you will leave the Central Imperial Universe . I want you to promise that you will not come back and invade the Central Imperial Universe in ten thousand years . If you can do that, we will help you get the bead . "
Feng Family people were intrigued . If they really could own the bead, then the progenitor could best the other universes . They could unify the eight universes . In that case, leaving the Central Imperial Universe wouldn"t hurt .
"Hmm!"
Feng Family progenitor said with sarcasm, "Brother Qi, don"t you try to fool me . You and I both understand that who owns the bead is not the problem . The crucial thing is how to face the retaliation from the other families after having the bead . "
It might be easy to take the bead, but to convert it into full use was not that easy . Otherwise, Lu Li would have succeeded . He would not have stayed there and let the Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors attack it .
It was true that Qi Family and Feng Family progenitors were quite strong . That being said, the Wicked Bead was a Relic, something used by an immortal . How could a mortal human being take control of it that easily?
It was not unlikely that the process of controlling the Wicked Bead could take years . If during that time, the families from the other universes retaliated, the Central Imperial Universe would not be able to face that . Warriors would have to retreat into their ancestral land . The family that owned the bead might survive but the other families would not be so lucky…

The family that owned the bead might survive but the other families would not be so lucky…
Additionally, the enemy Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors might escape if the plan was not a comprehensive one . Wu Guangde and Chen Tianxian knew Blood Escape . n.o.body here could say for sure that they could capture the two . When the two were at large, there would be no end of trouble for the future .
Qi Family progenitor thought for a while . Suddenly, he said in a mysterious tone, "If that man is willing to offer a helping hand, then all can be sorted out . He will be able to withstand the retaliation from those families easily . "
"That man?" Feng Family progenitor frowned in confusion . The next second, his eyes glowed as he asked, holding his breath, "Are you speaking of him?"
Qi Family progenitor nodded but they others were kept in the dark . One of them thought for a while and then shouted in surprise, "Right, we have all forgotten about him, the Crippled Zen Master . If he is willing to help us out, we will be able to face up the attack from those families . "
"The Zen guy!"
The warriors in the hall trembled, and a glint of terror rose in their eyes . It was as if the name had some magic power . The mention of the name already made them suffocated .
If there was a rank of all powerful warriors of the Central Imperial Universe, then one of them was most certainly the number one . He had been for thousands of years . That man was the Crippled Zen Master .
A person that seemed to be on the verge of dying 3000 years ago but lived till today…
"Alright!"
Feng Family progenitor stood up and said, "Brother Qi, let us to go the Zen Valley . We will work together to get the bead if he agrees to help .
