Chapter 235: Chapter 148: One Throne of Kings, Immortal Kings of the World, Come Forth and Receive Death

For the past sixty years, although Wang Xiao had been managing the affairs of the state, it did not mean he paid no attention to the Cultivation Immortality Realm.

In fact, he had always been dealing with the Cultivation Immortality Realm.

After all, he controlled the nation’s Spiritual Ores and Spiritual Fields, and these resources ultimately had to be managed.

It was difficult for ordinary mortals to make use of them.

Aside from what was needed for daily use, the rest would naturally be sold to those Immortal Sects or Loose Cultivators.

Although Wang Xiao had an agreement with Master Wuji not to sell to other Immortal Sects, who could really say what happened in private deals?!

Moreover, the hundreds of nations in the Eastern Divine Land were, in essence, the proving grounds for Immortal Kings to attain their Dao.

While Wang Xiao had no intention of provoking war, war would inevitably find its way to him.

Over these sixty years, the Yongchang Kingdom had fought countless battles with nations large and small, like the Kangding Country, the Witchcraft Gu Country, and the Ji Country!

This also deepened Wang Xiao’s understanding of the major Immortal Sects.

He had long since heard about the matter of borrowing another’s Law to attain the Dao.

He knew that the moment he achieved Enlightenment, he would inevitably alert Immortal Kings from all over the world.

For this, he had naturally made preparations long ago.

He was an emperor of the mortal world, not some Puppet Emperor to be slaughtered at the whim of Cultivators.

These Immortal Kings wanted to use his Law to attain their Dao.

He, in turn, wanted to use these Immortal Kings to test what he had learned and comprehended!

Hearing Wang Xiao’s words, Liu Yuzhen’s eyes filled with horror.

’She truly hadn’t expected that after so many years, her ninth brother’s arrogance hadn’t diminished in the slightest; in fact, it has grown even more extreme. To think he actually wants to fight all the Immortal Kings in the world by himself!’

’One must understand that when all the world’s Immortal Kings gather, even an Earth Immortal who has already attained their Dao wouldn’t dare to take them lightly and would even have to give them a wide berth!’

’My ninth brother has merely succeeded in his Enlightenment; he has yet to attain the Dao.’

’Where does he get the confidence to face so many Immortal Kings?’

’How is this any different from seeking death?!’

Liu Yuzhen couldn’t help but say,

"Ninth Brother, I know your Talent is extraordinary and you’ve been peerless on your journey, but do you really think you can face so many Immortal Kings?!"

"Just from what I know, eight or nine Immortal Kings have already arrived in the Celestial Capital, including those from major Immortal Sects like the Witchcraft Gu Sect, the Myriad Swords Sect, Fulong Temple, and Piaomiao Palace. There are even more from Immortal Sects outside the Eastern Divine Land, not to mention some Independent Immortal Kings. All together, there are likely twenty or thirty of them, and they might even possess Immortal Artifacts."

"Without an Earth Immortal to protect your path, you will surely die!"

Wang Xiao smiled faintly.

"Surely die? If they truly have the ability to kill me, then I can only blame my own flawed Enlightenment. I can’t blame anyone else."

"As for joining the Vast Immortal Sect, I didn’t do it sixty years ago, and I’m certainly not going to do it now."

Hearing this, Liu Yuzhen wanted to say more, but thinking of her ninth brother’s personality, her words ultimately turned into a sigh.

She took a Token from her robes and handed it to Wang Xiao.

"This is a decree from my master. It can block one strike from an Earth Immortal. Take it."

Wang Xiao did not reach out to take it, saying coolly,

"Thank Master Yuan for me for her kind intentions, but I cannot accept a reward I have not earned. I cannot take this decree."

Liu Yuzhen’s master, named Yuan Yao, was one of the three Earth Immortals of the Vast Immortal Sect.

Once, Yuan Yao had secretly indicated that if Wang Xiao were to one day encounter a problem he couldn’t solve, he could ask her for help.

She would bestow a decree to ensure his safety.

However, once Wang Xiao accepted this decree, it meant that even if he didn’t join the Vast Immortal Sect, he would have to obey Yuan Yao’s orders for the next hundred years.

How could one seek help from an Earth Immortal without paying a price?

Unfortunately, Wang Xiao wouldn’t agree to it for even a moment, let alone a hundred years.

Liu Yuzhen couldn’t help but feel a little frustrated.

"Ninth Brother, sometimes I really don’t understand if you truly have a plan or if you’re just looking to die."

The moment her voice fell, a figure silently strolled into Qianqing Palace.

It was a radiant woman with skin as white as snow. Her faint, charming smile exuded a natural allure.

Liu Yuzhen looked at the woman, her brow twitching slightly. "Senior Sister Ming Yu..."

The woman before her was the eldest female disciple of Master Wuji’s lineage.

In terms of strength, she ranked among the top of all the True Disciples.

Fifty years ago, she had already reached the Immortal King Realm through her Cultivation.

Ming Yu spoke in a soft, flowing tone,

"It seems I’ve come at an inopportune time."

Liu Yuzhen gazed at her, her brow furrowed.

"Senior Sister Ming Yu, could it be that you’ve also come to borrow the Law and attain the Dao?"

Ming Yu covered her mouth with her hand and chuckled.

"The Immortal Kings who wish to borrow the Law to attain the Dao are all people who have been cultivating for nearly a thousand years and find it difficult to achieve Enlightenment. I, however, have not yet reached the point where I need to borrow a Law."

"I came on my master’s orders to deliver a decree. But after accidentally overhearing Your Majesty’s words just now, I’m afraid I won’t be able to deliver this decree either."

She reflected silently.

’This Celestial Destiny Emperor is truly as untamable and audacious as the rumors say. No wonder Senior Brother An Yuanshan was nearly killed by him back then.’

’If this man can survive the siege of so many Immortal Kings, I fear he will become another figure who will stir up great turmoil in the world.’

Wang Xiao said,

"I appreciate the kind intentions of Master Wuji and Master Yuan. On another day, I will surely visit them personally to express my gratitude."

Hearing this, Ming Yu was a little speechless.

’So this Celestial Destiny Emperor really thinks he can overcome this deadly tribulation on his own?’

Outwardly, however, her expression remained unchanged.

"Very well. In that case, I will take my leave."

Ming Yu did not stay long and turned to leave.

Liu Yuzhen sighed.

"Since it has come to this, Ninth Brother, take care. I will remain in the city for the time being. If you change your mind, you can come find me at any time."
