Chapter 2473: Biggest Scheme
Heavenly Palace, Reincarnation Holy Court.
In an old fas.h.i.+oned side palace, Tian Junhe and Tian Chenyu sat opposite each other.
"Palace Master, according to the report from Sky Dragon Holy Court, Grand Elder Long Chang left Dragon Capital not long ago." Tian Chenyu reported.
"Where did he go?" Tian Junhe asked.
"I am not sure, but he is headed in the direction of Chaotic Holy Court!
Tian Junhe shook his head and continued, "According to the news we got from the spy slave in Dragon Tribe. Before Long Chang left Dragon Capital, Su Mo entered his manor and has not left."
"Oh, are you suspecting that Long Chang brought Su Mo along with him to leave Dragon Capital?" With a stern face, a bright flash of light crossed Tian Junhe"s eyes.
"It is a possibility!"
Tian Chenyu nodded and continued, "However, our spy is not a Supreme Being and he was unable to chase after Long Chang."
Tian Junhe fell silent as he pondered to himself. Even if he knew that Su Mo could have left Dragon Capital, there was nothing he could do.
Firstly, Long Chang was too strong and even if he chased after Long Chang now, it would be too late. Even after he found Long Chang, he might not be able to defeat Long Chang and capture Su Mo.
Furthermore, by that point, Su Mo must have separated from Long Chang and headed to another place. Di Yihun was not in Heavenly Palace then and it was not convenient for Tian Junhe to leave the palace.
"Su Mo might not have gone to Chaotic Holy Court. Send more men out to the various regions to investigate." A long moment later, Tian Junhe ordered.
"Yes!" Tian Chenyu nodded his head. Thereafter, he said, "Recently, Ultimate Supreme Being headed to Dragon Capital. I wonder what plans the Ultimate Sword Domain has for Su Mo?"
"Ultimate Supreme Being heading to Dragon Capital must be for the Ultimate Sacred Sword and Ultimate Sword Arts. We don"t have to worry about that!" Tian Junhe shook his head and continued, "Of course, we have to deal with Su Mo and if we can pull Ultimate Sword Domain to our side, that would be the best!"
"Mm!" Tian Chenyu agreed.
"How about this. Tell Zi Xiao the situation about Su Mo and Long Chang. Get him to investigate Su Mo!" A while later, Tian Junhe instructed. At that point, Zi Xiao was at the Heavenly Palace.
They knew about Zi Xiao"s situation. Zi Xiao had committed crimes and he could not return to Ultimate Sword Domain.
Heavenly Palace was willing to help Zi Xiao. In a way, this was a collaboration as they both had Su Mo as an enemy.
"That is great!" Tian Chenyu added. Su Mo could have left Dragon Capital. If they did not chase after him, they could miss out on an opportunity and it would be best for Zi Xiao to head down personally.
Step! Step! Step!
At that point, light footsteps emerged from the end of the hall. A large figure appeared at the palace doors.
"Yihun, you are back!" Tian Junhe and Tian Chenyu were slightly surprised at seeing that the person who had returned was Di Yihun.
"What happened?" Tian Chenyu hurriedly asked.
"Great!" Di Yihun"s face was calm and he sat down on a seat in the hall.
"Oh!" Both Tian Junhe and Tian Chenyu"s eyes brightened and they shot out of their seats.
This time, Di Yihun had headed out secretly to the various regions and talked to them.
This matter was of utmost importance in dealing with Su Mo. If Di Yihun succeeded, great things would follow.
"I went to Chaotic Holy Court, Undying Court, Sky Tyrant Court, Nether G.o.d Court, Starlight Court and Ancient Demon State. Aside from Chaotic Holy Court, the other five regions agreed to my request. As long as they obtain the rights to use the Holy Teleporting Array, they will allow me to head down to Lower Plane!" Di Yihun updated the two.
"That is great!" Tian Junhe burst out with joy. Di Yihun had headed out not to pull over the regions, but to obtain the chance to head down to Lower Plane.
It was too hard to pull over the regions, and the two of them had headed out and tried many times to no avail. As such, Di Yihun"s solo trip this time was to obtain a chance to head down to Lower Plane and give Su Mo a blow.
"The five regions have agreed. However, we have to be careful. The rights to the Holy Teleporting Array can end up going to Sky Dragon Court, Human Palace and any of the other eighty-one superpowers in Sky Pool Holy Court," Tian Chenyu warned.
Although the five regions were strong and had many talents, giving them large hopes of obtaining the rights to Holy Teleporting Array, it was not a guaranteed chance.
After all, Chaotic Holy Court, Sky Dragon Court and the eighty-one superpowers had top talents who were strong compet.i.tors.
"Do you all think that Su Mo would partic.i.p.ate in this Thousand Selection Fight?" Di Yihun asked.
"I don"t think so. He is only Rank 3 Realm, he does not have the right to enter it!" Tian Junhe shook his head.
"No, he will attend it!" Di Yihun said with conviction. He knew Su Mo better than anyone else and he knew that Su Mo would partic.i.p.ate in it.
"It isn"t possible for him to reach the Rank 5 Realm in five years?" Tian Chenyu questioned. He knew that Su Mo would want to partic.i.p.ate in Thousand Selection Fight. However, it seemed impossible for Su Mo to reach the Rank 5 Realm in just five years.
"You don"t understand. As long as he is willing to do so, he will do it!" Di Yihun said.
"What do you mean?" Tian Junhe frowned and tried to make a few guesses.
"This Thousand Selection Fight will have many Favored Ones including Prince Gu Mo and Young Master Ba Yun who will help me crush Su Mo!"
"What?" Tian Junhe and Tian Chenyu both exclaimed in surprise. Tian Junhe asked, "Did you really manage to win over the five regions?"
The two people were completely shocked. If the Favored Ones of the five regions helped them, Su Mo heading to the Thousand Selection Fight would be like them sending him as tribute.
Favored Ones of the various regions could not surpa.s.s Su Mo on talents. However, they all had high cultivation ranks and there was a large number of them.
For instance, Prince Gu Mo of Ancient Demon State had a Rank 9 cultivation rank while Young Master Ba Yun of Sky Tyrant Holy Court was a Lower Rank 8 martial artist. Young Master Wu Ji of Starlight Court was an Upper Rank 7 True G.o.d. All these men had talents that were inferior to Su Mo, however, their strengths could not be compared.
"I don"t consider it winning them over."
Di Yihun shook his head and sighed, "I made private agreements with these five regions and they are willing to get their disciples to attack Su Mo once during the Thousand Selection Fight. However, they won"t be too obvious with it."
The five regions did not want to show their stances and they were only willing to help Di Yihun once during the Thousand Selection Fight.
Furthermore, the five regions did not know each other. This meant that while the Ancient Demon State agreed to help Di Yihun, it did not know that the other four regions had agreed to Di Yihun too.
There was no choice in that matter. The superpowers in the various regions had complex relations.h.i.+ps and a compet.i.tive nature between them.
"That is enough. The Favored Ones of the five regions are good enough to crush Su Mo!" Tian Junhe accepted and he sighed softly.
If Su Mo particapted in the Thousand Selection Fight, he would be crushed. If he didn"t partic.i.p.ate, Di Yihun would head to the Lower Plane and target Su Mo"s weak point.
"It is best for them to crush him. If they are unable to do so, then they can only kill him!" Di Yihun"s eyes narrowed and he muttered in a deep tone.
He naturally wanted to merge with Su Mo"s Spiritual Soul. However, this chance was low and he was willing to kill Su Mo and destroy Su Mo"s Spiritual Soul.
That was because he felt that Su Mo was a threat to him. If he were unable to deal with Su Mo this time, things would get more complicated in the future.
Merging of six souls?
Di Yihun would be able to become a master even if he sacrificed one soul. It was only a matter of time.
As for the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign?
Di Yihun was conflicted regarding that matter and he struggled to come to terms with his destiny.
"Although this plan has a high success rate, it is not guaranteed and we cannot disregard Su Mo!"
Tian Chenyu raised a point. While things seemed good on the surface, they had to be prepared for the worst. In case Su Mo did not attend the Thousand Selection Fight and the right to the Holy Teleporting Array went to Chaotic Holy Court or Sky Dragon Court, they would be in trouble.
"That is true!" Tian Junhe agreed. Thereafter, they carefully updated Di Yihun on the news of Su Mo possibly leaving Dragon Capital with Long Chang.
"Investigate matters immediately and do not let go of any slight possibility!" Di Yihun naturally made the decision to investigate Su Mo"s whereabouts thoroughly.
If they could successfully capture Su Mo and bring him back to Heavenly Palace, it would be the best result.
After the three had finished their discussion, they finally decided that Tian Chenyu and Zi Xiao should follow Long Chang and investigate Su Mo"s whereabouts.
