Chapter 807: Chapter 807 Demon Emperor’s Conspiracy

Boom—

The ground within a ten-mile radius collapsed, rocks soared into the sky, reaching a thousand feet high as if struck by a giant stone. Millions of corpses were buried amidst the rubble, leaving Qian Mo and Qian Ku dripping with cold sweat.

Just now, the oppressive force that descended from the sky had made their hair stand on end. They were lucky to have dodged quickly, or else they too would have been severely injured.

Suddenly, Bai Ze appeared behind them, striking them with both palms on their backs.

Spurt—

Both spewed blood simultaneously, their bodies smashing toward the city wall, breaking through the wall and falling onto the streets within, their life and death uncertain.

The Zhenwu Emperor swiftly leaped down to prevent Qian Mo and Qian Ku from injuring people within the city.

When he arrived in front of the two, his expression immediately turned to shock. He saw them lying in pools of blood, their bodies clearly broken in multiple places, unconscious, bleeding from their eyes—a testament to the terrifying power of Bai Ze’s palm strike, strong enough to incapacitate a Daluo Immortal with a single blow.

"That presence is..."

The Zhenwu Emperor looked up at Bai Ze hovering in the air outside the city and murmured, his face showing disbelief.

All creatures on the city wall were stirred into an uproar.

"Is that a female demon?"

"So strong..."

"How is that possible, those two are Daluo Immortals!"

"How come I have never seen her before?"

"Am I seeing things?"

As time went by, within King Yan City, where demon beasts abounded, there had been much friction with Qin’s million cultivators at first, but it was soon suppressed by the elders with ruthless measures.

Bai Ze quickly put on a veil, concealing her face from view.

It wasn’t an issue before since the King Yan Palace had just been established, and no one recognized her. But now, as both the Court of Great Qin and King Yan Palace grew in renown, she also had to create two separate identities.

It’s worth mentioning that Xiang Yu’s first battle after coming into the world took place in front of King Yan City and was witnessed by the Demon Emperor. However, the Demon Emperor didn’t think too much about it, and even as Xiang Yu’s name rose from the Battle of the Western Regions, it still did not arouse the Demon Emperor’s suspicion.

It couldn’t be helped. The Court of Great Qin was already a miracle, so how could the Holy Emperor of Qin possibly raise another huge force?

It defied logic.

Alas, no one knew of the existence of the system.

At most, they thought that King Yan Palace had established some sort of connection with the Court of Great Qin, allowing them to dispatch Xiang Yu for support, but they dared not associate King Yan with the Holy Emperor of Qin as one and the same person.

Just then, Qin Jun arrived. The Zhenwu Emperor turned around and quickly knelt down with a cupped fist salute, exclaiming, "Your Majesty! I pay my respects!"

Qin Jun landed and began to examine Qian Mo and Qian Ku. The two looked wretched, no longer possessing their prior grandeur.

Having broken two Daluo Immortals, the King Yan Palace was now irreversibly at odds with the Corpse Emperor Palace.

But Qin Jun was not worried. The Corpse Emperor Palace had meddled in the Battle of the Western Regions, and Xu Chongsheng had even sought to capture him. He had not forgotten.

"No need for formalities. Spare their lives and interrogate them," he said with a slight nod.

With the appearance of Bai Ze, two Lords of Fate were shattered, a million-strong army of the Corpse Emperor Palace annihilated, and the fate of the battlefield was decided in the flip of a hand.

Li Si and others recognized Bai Ze’s identity and instinctively turned their heads, just in time to see Qin Jun standing before the Zhenwu Emperor.

"Your Majesty!"

Li Si, the Dragon Emperor, Meng Tian, and other elders hurriedly knelt before Qin Jun, and seeing this, the soldiers also followed suit, kneeling and saluting on the city wall.

The Corpse Emperor Palace’s army sent to this battle had been completely wiped out. They were overwhelmed with excitement, surmising that the white-robed female demon must be one of His Majesty’s subordinates.

All beings of the King Yan Palace revered Qin Jun as His Majesty, while outsiders called him King Yan, but few had ever seen his true face.

Bai Ze also floated down beside Qin Jun. Her veiled face was obscured, but the beauty of her eyes suggested that she was a stunningly beautiful female demon.

"Clean up the battlefield!"

Qin Jun waved his hand, and with a mental command, the two virtual Wolf Demons outside the city shrank back to their original form and flew back into the city.

Afterward, Qin Jun led the high-ranking officials of the King Yan Palace back to the central tower of the city to prepare for a council meeting.

King Yan City was the mysterious City of Fate, akin to a colossal magical artifact, and had already recognized Qin Jun as its master. Qin Jun had knowledge of all the situations that King Yan City encountered but he couldn’t show it, and he hadn’t been paying constant attention to King Yan City.

Outside the city, a giant pit with a diameter of ten miles was filled with rubble and severed limbs, and the air was thick with the stench of blood, murky enough to make one feel nauseated.

...

In Donghuang Territory.

Within the Demon Emperor Palace, a leopard Demon King reported to Donghuang Taiyi, who sat on the high throne, "Your Majesty, the Corpse Emperor Palace and Young Master You have both set their sights on King Yan Palace, shall we lend them a hand?"

The power of the Corpse Emperor Palace was at least on par with that of the Demon Emperor, if not stronger. Although Young Master You was of the younger generation, his father, the Nether Emperor, was the second most powerful being in the world, which also had to be taken into consideration.

"If King Yan Palace is in danger, it’s not too late to intervene," Donghuang Taiyi replied, holding a scroll that contained all the existing information about the Divine Court from around the world.

"Yes!"

The leopard Demon King bowed and was about to turn and leave.

"Wait, did you just say that Young Master You has also set his sights on King Yan Palace?" Donghuang Taiyi suddenly stopped the leopard Demon King.

"Yes, do we need to intercept?"

The leopard Demon King turned and asked respectfully, but the eyes of Donghuang Taiyi seated on the high throne began to flicker, and the corners of his mouth revealed a shallow smile that was inscrutable.

"It seems the youngest son of the Nether Emperor has no small ambition, eyeing the position among the Nine Emperors of the world at such a young age, truly disregarding his father," Donghuang Taiyi said with amused laughter.

Those who made trouble at this time were almost always aiming for the position of the Nine Emperors.

The Nether Emperor himself was so low-profile, yet it was intriguing that Young Master You should appear.

The leopard Demon King didn’t speak, but he too pondered over the matter in his mind.

"You may leave," Donghuang Taiyi waved his hand, and the leopard Demon King bowed and left.

Only after the great hall was left with only Donghuang Taiyi did he murmur to himself, "Second in the world? Your son is the knife I will use to carve you up!"

During the last encounter, the Nether Emperor had personally invited him to join the contest for the Nine Emperors position. Although it had flattered him, Donghuang Taiyi felt some discomfort towards the Nether Emperor and would have liked nothing better than to slap the Nether Emperor to death if the heavens weren’t at risk of disruption.

...

In King Yan City.

"The people from the Corpse Emperor Palace have appeared, but what about Young Master You? Wasn’t it said that he also had designs on King Yan Palace?"

Qin Jun asked, sitting on the throne with dozens of elders and officials standing in the great hall, half of them Demon Kings, and the other half cultivators.

For most of the Demon Kings and cultivators present, it was their first time seeing Qin Jun, and their eyes were filled with excitement and curiosity.

With the Thousand Faces mask on, Qin Jun had become another person, still handsome, though, of course, a bit less so than his true self.

"A few days ago, Young Master You brought people attempting to infiltrate King Yan City, but they were discovered and expelled from King Yan City. Recently, there has been no sign of him," Li Si replied.

Li Si felt a headache whenever Young Master You was mentioned.

Compared to the Corpse Emperor Palace, they were even less capable of provoking Young Master You, for Young Master You had the support of the Nether Emperor.

Qin Jun sneered and said, "Next time we catch Young Master You, execute him on the spot!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire great hall erupted.

"Your Majesty, we must not act rashly!"

"Although King Yan Palace has developed considerably, it is far from being a match for the Netherworld!"

"It would suffice to intimidate Young Master You, we must not kill!"

"This will completely provoke the Nether Emperor!"
