An elder from the Jiang family suddenly burst in, looking panicked.
This immediately caught the attention of many people.
They speculated in their hearts, at a time like this, who would dare to barge in if something major hadn't happened?
Jiang Wujin glanced at the person and his face darkened. His heart suddenly skipped a beat. He asked coldly, "What's going on?"
The Jiang family elder hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and gritted his teeth. "Ancestor, something has happened! Something big!"
"The Desolate Mountain Imperial Prison has been raided. The three Great Emperors who were imprisoned there have been rescued!"
As soon as these words were spoken, it caused a huge commotion.
Everyone present stood up abruptly, their auras trembling, showing extreme shock.
The Desolate Mountain Imperial Prison had an incident, and the imprisoned Great Emperors were all rescued!
This was much more serious than a small Nine Absolute Sect being destroyed. If blame were to come from above, they wouldn't be able to handle it!
Moreover, at this sensitive time, with one incident after another, how would they be viewed by those above?
Jiang Wujin clenched his fists, his face changing unpredictably.
For the first time, he felt a sense of powerlessness that he couldn't control.
At this moment, the gazes of the others also focused on him.
A crimson bead floated up, and Cao Jue's voice came from it, anxiously asking, "What do we do now?"
"If we hadn't mentioned it, the Imperial Prison wouldn't have had an incident!"
Jiang Wujin gave him a cold glance and shouted, "Shut up! The only thing we can do now is wait for the Celestial Lord to take action!"
"It must be Ye Xi. Besides him, no one else has the ability to do this!"
As he spoke, he suddenly had a realization in his heart.
Perhaps everything had long been within Ye Xi's calculations.
Jiang Wujin's face darkened, murmuring to himself,
"The incident at Cangwu Mountain, Ye Xi planned to lure the Heavenly Punishment Venerable, using the Forbidden Path Stone to neutralize the suppression of the Evil Eye, and severely injure the Venerable."
"And now..."
"He took advantage of the opportunity when the Venerable dispatched the Eight Great Annihilation Path Masters, and broke into the Imperial Prison to rescue the suppressed Great Emperors!"
As his words fell, the entire Grotto-Heaven fell silent.
A heavy silence.
The atmosphere gradually became heavy, and a thick layer of dark clouds hung over everyone's hearts.
Many people even had a thought...
Ye Xi was the one who truly had everything under control, using the Lixue Immortal Dynasty and the Yuchi Sacred Grounds to distract.
He entered the Desolate Mountain Imperial Prison alone to rescue people.
They had thought they had the support of the Venerable, and were in an advantageous position. Now they realized it was all an illusion.
Cao Jue's soul hid in the bead and suddenly said, "You said we can't win over the Immortal Great Emperors, but can we try to win over this Ye Xi?"
...
The hall fell silent again, and no one answered.
But many people's minds became active, thinking that this plan was feasible.
Many of those present hadn't joined from the beginning.
It was only through long-term infiltration and constant persuasion that they had reluctantly joined forces.
They had suffered heavy losses in their several encounters with Ye Xi.
Since they couldn't defeat him, could they bring him in together?
Soon, someone spoke up, their voice deep, "I think Brother Cao's idea is worth a try..."
"Ye Xi has shown wisdom and strategy, obviously... cough, what I mean is, he can be won over!"
Others followed suit and expressed their agreement.
Jiang Wujin's face looked unpleasant, feeling uneasy. Although no one said it, it was obvious that they were dissatisfied with him!
Are they doubting my ability to control the situation? How foolish!
But now that everyone has unanimously decided, he can only grit his teeth and say,
"Alright, let's give it a try when we find the opportunity!"
"After all, what we want to accomplish is a great cause, and of course we need more geniuses to join!"
Jiang Wujin paused for a moment, then continued,
"But through this incident, we also need to realize if there's a problem within our ranks."
"The Desolate Mountain Imperial Prison is top secret. How did Ye Xi find out?"
At these words, many people's faces changed.
A traitor?
If there really is a traitor among them, then it would be troublesome, as they would lose any advantage they had hiding in the shadows.
Jiang Wuji's eyes turned cold as he said, "This matter needs to be thoroughly investigated. If anyone under my command is a spy, I will not let them go!"
He didn't suspect the people present.
Instead, he suspected their own clan members or subordinates, because for them, there was no turning back, no possibility of betrayal.
"Now that Tianfa Zunzhe is injured..."
Cao Jue's voice suddenly sounded, asking, "I wonder if the other Venerables will take action? If they do, everything can be resolved!"
Jiang Wuji's expression also changed, but he still shook his head.
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Let's wait. Let's keep quiet for a while and plan our next move!"
"Next time, I will definitely seek revenge!"
Jiang Wuji said, clenching his fist and a defiant light flashed in his eyes.
"It's alright, I'll leave first!"
"Yes, there are still many things to take care of."
"Let me know again!"
Before he finished speaking, the people present got up one by one, their figures shrouded in cloaks, disappearing into the Grotto-Heaven.
Jiang Wuji's face turned cold again, his fist clenched.
------
Li Yue Xian Dynasty.
Several days passed, and most of the territory of the Nine Absolute Sect was absorbed.
After obtaining the territory and resources of the Nine Absolute Sect.
The overall strength of the Immortal Dynasty once again made a leap. In recent days, major forces from Zhongzhou came to offer tribute, make connections, and form alliances, countless in number.
Of course, there was no need for Ye Qingge to personally handle these matters.
Except for a few top powerhouses who came, they were all received by Prime Minister Yang Mu.
A great battle that shook Zhongzhou came to an end like this.
No one had expected this.
The Li Yue Xian Dynasty actually won so thoroughly, and the news that this powerful Empress had already broken through the Transcending Tribulation stage had also spread.
Not only Ye Qingge, even Yuan Ruoyu and the Pei family had a Great Emperor sitting in power.
This caused quite a stir.
When did the Great Emperors become so common? Weren't they supposed to be extremely rare?
Only certain people could sense something different from this information.
Why would Ye Qingge and Yuan Ruoyu hide their cultivation?
There must be some unknown secrets behind this that people couldn't help but ponder.
At this moment, in a mist-filled bath.
Two delicate bodies as white as sheep fat jade were bathing in the pool, with everything below their necks submerged in water.
It was Ye Qingge and Qing Dai.
After a few days of getting along, this Empress of the Immortal Dynasty and the Demon Emperor of the Demon Realm unexpectedly got along quite well.
In just a few days, they were already bathing together.
Ye Qingge leaned against the edge of the bath, slightly opened her eyes, glanced at Qing Dai not far away, and then lowered her head to look at herself.
Suddenly, this usually dominant Empress felt a bit frustrated.
Ye Qingge secretly thought, "It's so big, it's too exaggerated, like a big cow..."
Of course, she couldn't say these words out loud.
For a transformed demon beast, their true form was also a relatively private matter and not something they would easily let others know.
Qing Dai suddenly looked over and asked, "What is your relationship with the Immortal Great Emperor? Do you know where he is now?"
Ye Qingge was stunned for a moment. Although the two of them had been getting along well these past few days, they still didn't know much about each other's origins and backgrounds.
She didn't expect Qing Dai to suddenly ask this.
But it seemed like there was nothing to keep secret. After hesitating for a moment, Ye Qingge said, "It's the same as us, a relationship where we often bathe together."
"As for where he is now, I don't know."
As the Empress of the Immortal Dynasty, bathing together with a man already made their relationship quite obvious.
Qing Dai furrowed her brows slightly, not expecting the other party to be clueless as well.
At this moment, Ye Qingge suddenly looked at her with a hint of playfulness and said,
"What about you? Why are you looking for him? What is your relationship with him?"
Ye Qingge was indeed curious. She had never heard Lin Feng mention any relationship with a demon beast.
Hmph, and such a big demon beast at that...
Ye Qingge's thoughts quickly turned, secretly thinking, "I'm afraid that Qing Dai's assistance this time is not that simple."
