Demoness, where are you Fleeing to?

Chapter 1009: 821

This grand array covered the surrounding area, not only connecting with Cibei Island. The group of Spellcasters within it could also be described as opulent, with precisely 3,700 Spellcasters of at least the second realm arrayed in all directions within the formation.

And located right at the center was none other than the contemporary Heavenly Master, Zhang Shenye.

At this moment, on the southern space above Cibei Island, a storm raged fiercely, with two massive vortices advanced toward the direction of Cibei Island.

They spun wildly, causing the surrounding area of ten thousand miles to be filled with tremendously violent winds and waves.

However, the purpose of the Spellcasters from the Zhengyi Sect was not to stop this northward-moving typhoon but to aid in pushing the underwater currents.

No matter how wild the typhoon, it could only affect the land and the sea surface.

But the battlefield of the aquatic clan was deep underwater at six hundred feet, and only the underwater currents could affect the outcome of this battle.

Those currents, originating from the north, were now being boosted by their Spells and transformed into fierce currents sweeping southward.

They not only could disrupt the enemy formation but also could sweep those Deep Sea Monsters deeper under the sea, drawing them into the whirlpools and currents.

They could even form sharp water blades, slicing through the tough flesh of those Deep Sea Monsters.

Under the push of the ocean currents, the millions of sea demons under Li Xuan also appeared more formidable. At the moment of the encounter, they nearly overwhelmed the opposing deep-sea army.

Li Xuan did not pay much attention to the underwater battle, as he stood with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance.

He was observing the Gouchen Emperor, who hovered above the vacant skies, and Master Kunpeng, hidden beneath the water.

This time, Xue Yunrou had also joined the campaign with the group of Spellcasters from Zhengyi Sect, and she was not far behind Li Xuan, managing the southern hub of this grand array.

Yet what she spoke of was unrelated to the grand battle at hand.

"It’s strange, we had been unable to contact Illustrious Sage and True Lord Jingxuan before, but just yesterday, Lord Jingxuan suddenly bestowed a decree, appointing Little Tiger Head as Young Lord Ziwei and even gave him the name Zhang Daoyi."

Illustrious Sage and True Lord Jingxuan was none other than Zhang Daoling, the founder of Zhengyi.

This title was ’Illustrious Sage and True Lord Chongxuan Jingxuan of Zhengyi’.

So, a hint of joy appeared in Xue Yunrou’s eyes, as Zhang Daoling’s actions were clearly an endorsement of her and Little Tiger Head’s right to inherit the Tianshi’s mansion.

Li Xuan also found it odd, puzzled by the intentions of the ancestor of Zhengyi.

But he soon shook his head indifferently. "All these are superficial. He can grant Little Tiger Head a title now, and he can also strip him of the title of Young Lord Ziwei in the future. Only real power is fundamental.

Right now, I just want to know, when the Saint appears in the world again and Lord Jingxuan returns amidst dragons and tigers, how many from Zhengyi Sect would be willing to heed the commands of the Heavenly Master and you?"

He was now somewhat regretting having Little Tiger Head included into the Zhang family.

To Li Xuan, the continuation of a lineage mattered little, but Master Zhang and Xue Yunrou placed great importance on it.

Xue Yunrou was willing to follow him without fame or official status, just to have a child inherit the Tianshi’s mansion; Master Zhang toiled tirelessly, repeatedly mobilizing the power of the Tianshi’s mansion to aid him in combat, also hoping that this child would continue the lineage and prevent the position of the Heavenly Master from falling into other branches of the family.

But back then, Li Xuan had not anticipated the destruction of Yuanfeng under the First Emperor, nor did he expect the moment when the Four Great Heavenly Masters of Zhengyi—Zhang Daoling, Ge Xuan, Sa Shoujian, and Xu Jing—would have their moment of overshadowing this world. This had stirred up internal turmoil within the Tianshi’s mansion.

"Possibly less than twenty percent," Xue Yunrou furrowed her brows, her expression not very optimistic, "But with your financial support, we are massively cultivating our own core Spellcasters—"

Xue Yunrou was speaking just as she realized that Li Xuan was not even listening.

The man was intently staring into the depths of the sea, his lips curling into a cold smirk.

In an instant, some movement finally arose from the over two hundred thousand elite men of the Central Army under the command of the Great Emperor Kunpeng.
