Chapter 773: Chapter 638 Return to Master 3_2

"And what about it?" Yu Hongchang was indifferent: "The emperor, my father, treated you well. The fact that he didn’t give you a poisoned cup of wine shows his mercy. Over the past decade, he has maintained the highest respect and kindness towards you, without interrupting any part of your treatment.

"But since you’re not content, I will act on behalf of my father and eliminate you, the cause of disaster."

As she spoke, she pointed and the ’Four-legged Gilded Universe Star Cauldron’ hurtled towards Emperor Zhengtong.

Emperor Zhengtong thought to himself that this woman’s temperament was indeed completely different from her father’s – cold-hearted, ruthless and decisive.

Fortunately, his thirteen years of seclusion and experiences had not left him helpless.

With a raise of Emperor Zhengtong’s hand, a myriad of Dragon Qi was gathered, forming a Five-clawed Golden Dragon above him. The five claws of the golden dragon were each adorned with a peculiar golden ring.

With a wave of its paw, the Golden Dragon held up the ’Four-legged Gilded Universe Star Cauldron’ mid-air.

Under the pressure of the ’Four-legged Gilded Universe Star Cauldron’, the Five-clawed Golden Dragon showed signs of strain, and Emperor Zhengtong’s throne kept sinking, causing the ground around him to crackle.

Yet, the ’Four-legged Gilded Universe Star Cauldron’ remained suspended a yard above the head of Emperor Zhengtong, unable to fall further.

"Didn’t expect this, did you?" There was a glint of a gloomy flame in Emperor Zhengtong’s pupils: "Today, I too ascend to the heavenly level! You, wretch, can’t kill me!"

In his right hand, another jade seal appeared, which made Emperor Zhengtong’s Dragon Qi appear even more intense.

Yu Hongchang glanced from a distance and found it was the jade seal ’Emperor’s Treasure of Heaven’ inherited by the Jin Dynasty.

This object had been decreed by the Great Ancestor to be used in the warfare of the Jin Dynasty, as well as in the sacrificial ceremonies of the mountains and rivers and the Ghost Gods. It was said to have been passed down from the Tang and Song Dynasties and was the largest of all the seals.

It could even control the ’Jiuding Wulong Hunyuan Great Array’ to a certain extent.

In the Battle of Tumu Fort, Emperor Zhengtong took this jade seal to the prairies, and since then it had been missing.

Emperor Zhengtong always insisted that this object had fallen into the hands of the Vala Khan.

However, Yu Hongchang’s gaze remained as cold as ever. Behind her, a pair of red and blue wings flapped slightly, and behind Yu Hongchang in the high sky, two Dharma Phases appeared: one ’Drought Demon’ and one ’Emperor of Hell’!

In an instant, infinite pressure enveloped the scene.

"Dual-Pole Divine Source!" the former Emperor Zhengtong was immensely shocked. Then he saw Yu Hongchang simply deliver a punch that shattered his Five-clawed Golden Dragon.

The ’Four-legged Gilded Universe Star Cauldron’ suspended in midair also fell under her control at that moment, bearing down on the pale former Emperor Zhengtong.

But at this time, Yu Hongchang let out a startled yelp. She noticed a golden book flying across the sky, which collided with the ’Four-legged Gilded Universe Star Cauldron’, sending it flying.

She had seen this book before - it looked just like the copy of the "Book of Jinque" that Li Xuan still firmly held in his hands.

Yu Hongchang gazed up again at the pair of icy red eyes and looked towards the source of the "Book of Jinque". She saw a woman wearing a Xuanwu mask standing a hundred feet away in the air.

She also recognized this woman – the Master of Xuanwu Palace, Lianling Immortal.

This woman had once visited her, intending to exert pressure through the Court to reclaim the copy of the Book of Jinque from Li Xuan’s hands.

At the same time, Yu Hongchang heard the sound of clashing weapons and commotion coming from outside Chengtian Gate. Flames were rising high over the city gate.

Looking in the distance, Yu Hongchang noticed that Chengtian Gate had been blasted open. Numerous soldiers of the Jingying Forbidden Army were flooding in, led by none other than Liang Heng, the Great General who was supposed to be defending Liaodong.

Without hesitation, Yu Hongchang retreated to the gate: "All, listen to the order, retreat to the Forbidden City immediately, I will cover the rear!"

Her eyes were as dark as water. Yu Hongchang didn’t expect the situation to be so perilous!

※※※※

Meanwhile, at Shiyong Lane outside the Forbidden City.

Shaofu Yu stopped suddenly as he was hurrying to the lane. He saw a woman in a red dress wearing a mask standing at the end of the street.

She stood there with her hands behind her back, like a massive mountain obstructing a river, overwhelming the heavens and earth, leaving people awestruck.

Shaofu Yu felt an exceedingly dangerous aura from this woman.

Ever since he cultivated the ’Rule of Extreme Heaven’, only Master Zhongliu had made him feel something similar.

Shaofu Yu’s expression darkened, and he stopped: "Who are you?"

"You can call me Dasiming." The woman in the red dress looked at him emotionlessly: "Shaofu Yu, it is the will of Heaven that the True Emperor Zhengtong has successfully restored his power and regained his throne. Although it happened a decade earlier, it’s an inevitable trend. For such natural laws of Heaven, you shouldn’t, and can’t stop it!"

Shaofu Yu frowned deeply, his body radiating intense qi, with his splendid Hao Qi shining with Dari.

The lady in the red dress, seeing this, casually waved her sleeve: "Yu Jie, are you sure you want to confront me? Think it through, if our Extreme Heaven daos clash, this ’Jiuding Wulong Hunyuan Great Array’ won’t be able to protect us. Hundreds of thousands of people around Dashi Yongfang will die because of us!"

Shaofu Yu’s face instantly turned extremely ugly.

At the moment when Shaofu Yu was intercepted by Dasiming, the former ’deputy Zuodu Yushi’, and current ’Qing of Taichang Temple’ Lin Youzhen, also stepped into the Temple of Heaven.

The Temple of Heaven was sealed. It should be isolated from the outside, and no one should be able to enter without the emperor’s decree.
