Chapter 184 - 184 184 Compromise of Two Big Forces Fifth Update

184: Chapter 184: Compromise of Two Big Forces (Fifth Update) 184: Chapter 184: Compromise of Two Big Forces (Fifth Update) “Boss, I fully agree with your approach.”

Fat Cat yelled loudly, a lewd smile spreading across his tiger-like eyes.

“Big Brother Yan, isn’t this too cruel?”

Lingxi asked timidly.

In her view, this was worse than killing Gu Yunxiao and Leng Qianqiu outright.

“Long Yan really has guts the size of the heavens, to dare to speak like this.

I have to say I’m utterly impressed.”

“Awesome, truly awesome!

From today onwards, Yan is my idol!

I fear there’s no second person on Shenwu Continent who’d dare threaten Ancient Sword Gate and Ten Thousand Phenomena Sect.”

“Thank god our Young Palace Master is Brother Long Yan, otherwise, Martial God Palace would be doomed.”

…

At this moment, everyone was utterly astonished, their mouths agape.

The people of Pill King Hall were entirely smitten with Long Yan, while the people of Martial God Palace and Leng Family were simply relieved; glad that Long Yan had not used the threat of Wu Kuangyun and Leng Qianqiu against their respective clans.

“Damn it!”

Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli’s bodies trembled.

They wouldn’t have cared if Long Yan had killed them, but this devious method that Long Yan had come up with was so irritating that even they could not keep their composure.

“Qin Lan, kill Long Yan, don’t worry about me.

The Ancient Sword Gate can’t be ruined in my hands.”

Gu Yunxiao shouted at Qin Lan.

“Even if I die, I can’t implicate the Ten Thousand Phenomena Sect.

Take action, kill Long Yan and the rest of the Zhan Clan.”

Feng Wanli also shouted to Quake Three Rivers.

“It’s not up to you now!”

Long Yan snorted coldly and promptly knocked out Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli.

“Wushuang, these two are your responsibility now.”

Zhan Wushuang comprehended Long Yan’s words and collected Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli into the War God Tower.

“If I do not see what I want in half a month, you know what the consequences are.”

Long Yan directed his words at Qin Lan and Quake Three Rivers.

“Fine, we agree to your conditions!”

After weighing all options, Qin Lan and Quake Three Rivers both chose to compromise.

If Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli were stripped naked and paraded about, the Ancient Sword Gate and Ten Thousand Phenomena Sect would never be able to hold up their heads.

At this point, they had no better solution, and their only option was to rescue Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli before deciding on their next course of action.

With that, Qin Lan and Quake Three Rivers both departed.

“Tianya, return to the Pill King Hall immediately.

You know what I mean.”

Zhuge Qianzhong assigned Chi Tianya to return to Pill King Hall for certain tasks.

“Junior Brother, let’s move on to the Five Emperor City.”

Subsequently, under Zhuge Qianzhong’s guidance, Long Yan and company entered the Five Emperors City, with the King Giant Ape and the Four Great Demon Kings also entering the city.

Wu Kuangyun and Leng Qianqiu hadn’t left either, but separately ordered Martial Sky Row and Cold Hundred Refinement to head back to Martial God Palace and Leng Family for a while.

…

Inside the courtyard, Zhan Wushuang, Long Yan, and Zhuge Qianzhong sat together in a circle.

Zhan Wushuang bore no ill will towards Zhuge Qianzhong because Pill King Hall had never attacked the Zhan clan.

“What’s your plan?”

Zhuge Qianzhong asked straightforwardly.

“Of course, we’ll wait for the Ancient Sword Gate and Ten Thousand Phenomena Sect to bring the ransom.”

Long Yan responded with a smile.

Zhuge Qianzhong nodded slightly: “With Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli on our side, Ancient Sword Gate and Ten Thousand Phenomena Sect do not dare to act rashly.”

After a pause, he asked: “Do you know why the Four Major Forces were persistent in exterminating the Zhan Clan?”

“What exactly is the secret of Five Emperors City?”

Long Yan was also very curious.

The secret of Five Emperors City was extraordinary!

Zhan Wushuang also had his doubts.

Father knew the secret of Five Emperors City but didn’t tell him.

This secret could possibly be the root cause of the annihilation of the Zhan Clan.

“It has to be traced back ten thousand years.” Zhuge Qianzhong started to tell the story.

Ten thousand years ago, a super strong appeared on the Shenwu Continent who was invincible in the world and was known as the Divine Emperor.

The Divine Emperor ruled Shenwu Continent with his unparalleled martial prowess.

The Five Emperors and the Zhan Clan were his primary military strength.

Then, not knowing what happened, the Divine Emperor fell.

At the time of the Divine Emperor’s fall, he left behind Nine Divine Emperor Orders.

If one could gather all nine, he could find the Divine Emperor Treasure Vault.

The Divine Emperor included all his wealth in the Divine Emperor Treasure Vault and even left his Legacy there.

It was rumored that he also sealed an important thing inside.

The Divine Emperor’s Treasure Vault is the greatest Treasure on the Shenwu Continent.

For ten thousand years, the Five Great Powers have been searching for the Divine Emperor’s Treasure, attempting to find its location and secure the items within, especially the Divine Emperor’s Legacy.

So far, seven of the Nine Divine Emperor Orders have emerged.

There is a Little Qiankun World in the Five Emperors City.

The Five Emperors gained the opportunity inside the Little Qiankun World that led to their powerful rise.

After the Divine Emperor fell, the Five Emperors entered the Little Qiankun World and never came out again.

That Little Qiankun World also became the tomb of the Five Emperors.

The Zhan Clan had always guarded the Five Emperors City and sealed the entrance to the Little Qiankun World, prohibiting anyone from entering.

Sixteen years ago, an unknown source spread a message claiming that the Five Emperors had held the Divine Emperor Order.

In order to get this Divine Emperor Order, the Four Major Forces were willing to eradicate the Zhan Clan.

Unfortunately, at the last moment, the Zhan Clan performed a blood ritual to seal the God’s Door, and used this door to seal the entrance to the Little Qiankun World.

All efforts by the Four Major Forces to break this seal were in vain.

“So, the Four Major Forces exterminated the Zhan clan just to get the Divine Emperor Order.”

After understanding the causes and effects, both Long Yan and Zhan Wushuang came to a realization.

The Divine Emperor Treasure Vault was the greatest Treasure on the Shenwu Continent, something anyone would covet.

It was no wonder then that the Four Major Forces were willing to move against the Zhan Clan.

“In fact, the Four Major Forces moved against the Zhan Clan for the Divine Emperor Order is only one reason.

There are two more reasons.”

Zhuge Qianzhong said: “The rise of the Five Emperors was very mysterious.

There could be a secret in the Little Qiankun World that facilitated their rise.

That’s what the Four Major Forces wanted.

In addition, they wanted to get the Legacy and Treasure of the Five Emperors, which include the Five Daoist Tools and the Five Sets of Earth-Rank Battle Techniques.”

The Divine Emperor Order, Divine Emperor’s Treasure Vault, the mystery of the Little Qiankun World, the Legacy and the treasure of the Five Emperors were all the reasons why the Four Major Forces attacked the Zhan Clan.

People die for money and birds for food.

Just the Legacy of the Five Emperors was extraordinary, not to mention the Divine Emperor’s Treasure Vault.

The Four Major Forces had no reason not to covet it.

“The Zhan Clan guarded the Five Emperors City.

They had the advantage of proximity.

Didn’t their people ever enter the Little Qiankun World?”

This was what baffled Long Yan the most.

If there truly existed some secrets within the Little Qiankun World, it was hard to believe that the Zhan Clan didn’t have the slightest interest in it.

After all, it was the place that had created five powerful beings.

“I’m not sure about this.

But one thing is for sure, people of the Zhan Clan have never entered the Little Qiankun World.

Maybe it’s because the Zhan Clan values their promise.”

This question also puzzled Zhuge Qianzhong.

If a cat feigns indifference while eying a fish, it’s fake.

He vaguely felt that the Little Qiankun World was far from simple.

“What could be the reason?

Was there some sort of agreement between the Five Emperors and the Zhan Clan?”

Long Yan was speculating.

Nobody wants their grave to be disturbed.

It’s very likely that the Five Emperors and the Zhan Clan had some agreement.

The Zhan Clan willingly became the grave guardian for the Five Emperors.

“The secret my father did not want to mention must have had some unspeakable difficulties.”

Zhan Wushuang really wanted to know the reason for it.
