Divine King of Honour-Chapter 1666: Heavenly Court Crisis

Within the mountain range where the Heavenly Court resided.

At this moment, many people were gathered in the grand hall.

Leng Yanran sat in the main seat, with Wentian Demon Sovereign on her left, and Ling Feng on her right.

Besides them, there were Paper Taoist and a middle-aged man at Late-stage Immortal Emperor Level, along with three Early-stage Immortal Emperor level experts.

These four were independent immortals who later joined the Heavenly Court.

At this moment, the Undying Devouring Sky Beast was not present in the hall.

The Undying Devouring Sky Beast was still in its growth phase, not yet fully mature, hence it remained asleep.

During this period, the Undying Devouring Sky Beast Avatar hadn’t made any appearances.

Therefore, few members of the Heavenly Court were aware of Xu Nian’s existence.

"Now that our Heavenly Court is facing a formidable enemy, everyone may share your thoughts freely," Leng Yanran spoke.

She exuded a powerful aura of authority.

She was no longer the same as she once was.

Regarding the refinement of Godhood, Leng Yanran had achieved fifty percent.

Her Law Comprehension had reached the Law Great Success Realm, and her cultivation had even broken through to Early-stage Immortal Emperor.

With the Godhood and Divine Artifact in her possession, not to mention Early-stage Immortal Emperor experts, those at mid and late stages were no match for her.

However, at this moment, Leng Yanran’s face appeared somewhat pale, and she seemed rather weak.

The previously authoritative aura was only forcibly upheld.

Not long ago, she had a battle with the Four Great Alliances.

She was injured by the Feather Clan Leader, and if it wasn’t for the Divine Armor, Divine Sword, and Divine Talisman Dagger Xu Nian gave her, she would have met her demise at the hands of the Feather Clan Leader.

"I suggest we give up the Immortal Spring. There are so many experts in the Four Great Alliances; we are simply not their match," said the Late-stage Immortal Emperor Level independent immortal.

He was called Li Huo Immortal Emperor, proficient in the Fire Attribute Law.

His cultivation lasted for thirty-seven thousand years.

The reason he joined the Heavenly Court was naturally for Leng Yanran.

From the moment he saw Leng Yanran, he was smitten.

He vowed to win over this woman.

But after spending time with her, he found that Leng Yanran was always indifferent to him.

This made him very displeased.

Now, with the Four Great Alliances attacking, he consistently advocated for abandoning the Immortal Spring.

Yet Leng Yanran did not adopt his suggestion, which greatly irritated him.

"Agreed, give up the Immortal Spring. The alliance formed by the Four Great Forces consists of thirteen Immortal Emperors, including four at the peak, two at late stages, three at mid stages, and four at early stages; such a vast array is beyond our Heavenly Court’s capability to contend with," said an Early-stage Immortal Emperor Level man.

He was known as Golden Element Immortal Emperor, also a powerful independent immortal who achieved Immortal Emperor status.

The other two Early-stage Immortals nodded in agreement.

"With our Heavenly Court’s limited strength, it’s like hurling an egg against a rock," another Early-stage Immortal Emperor recklessly said.

Leng Yanran frowned, her gaze chilling.

Clearly, these three Early-stage Immortal Emperors were led by Li Huo Immortal Emperor.

In the past, she could suppress Li Huo Immortal Emperor.

But now she was seriously injured, with formidable enemies approaching.

Li Huo Immortal Emperor would not easily miss this opportunity.

"Give up the Immortal Spring? Do you think they will spare us? I’m afraid the Four Great Forces are here for more than just the Immortal Spring. Are we also supposed to hand over those three Divine Artifacts and Godhood?" scoffed Wentian Demon Emperor.

Indeed, Wentian Demon Sovereign had now ascended to Wentian Demon Emperor.

His cultivation was only at Early Stage Demon Emperor, but he could battle with Mid-stage and even Late-stage Immortal Emperor level experts.

This was one reason why Li Huo Immortal Emperor hadn’t directly acted against Leng Yanran.

Now Leng Yanran’s soul had fused with the Godhood halfway.

If Leng Yanran handed over the Godhood, she would inevitably die.

Thus, this battle must be fought, and can only be fought.

"Hmph, then what do you propose? Four Immortal Emperor Peaks? Will you withstand them? If not for this Mountain Protection Array, we would have been annihilated long ago," Li Huo Immortal Emperor scoffed.

Clearly dissatisfied with Wentian Demon Emperor.

Due to several occasions where he sought Leng Yanran, always obstructed by Wentian Demon Emperor.

He couldn’t understand why Leng Yanran kept a powerful demon at her side.

It was practically a huge hidden threat.

He had more than once mentioned this to Leng Yanran, but she simply wouldn’t listen.

Thus, he had strong dissatisfaction toward Wentian Demon Emperor.

"Li Huo Immortal Emperor, according to you, can you assure they will retreat after taking the Immortal Spring?" Leng Yanran asked.

"Yanran..."

"Call me Court Master!"

Li Huo Immortal Emperor was about to speak when Leng Yanran interrupted him.

"Court Master!" Li Huo Immortal Emperor said unhappily, "I think we can offer the Immortal Spring and the three Divine Artifacts in negotiation with the Four Great Forces. I’m confident they will accept."

As he spoke, Li Huo Immortal Emperor inwardly sneered, "Leng Yanran, no matter how proud you are, you will ultimately fall into my hands. Then I’ll make you kneel obediently before me."

Leng Yanran could certainly see the malignancy in Li Huo Immortal Emperor’s eyes.

Previously, the Heavenly Court needed rapid development and had to recruit more talent.

Li Huo indeed contributed significantly to the growth of Heavenly Court.

This was indeed a good approach before confronting strong enemies.

But once faced with formidable foes, Li Huo Immortal Emperor would become the source of internal strife.

Leng Yanran had considered this, she just hadn’t anticipated that strong enemies would come so quickly.

"Hand over the Immortal Spring and the three Divine Artifacts? Why not suggest we surrender?" Ling Feng scoffed.

"Hmph, this is none of your concern," Li Huo instantly glared at Ling Feng.

The latter was instantly furious.

Indeed, at this moment Ling Feng’s cultivation was only at Quasi-Immortal Emperor Level.

Naturally, he couldn’t be Li Huo’s match.

But Ling Feng’s army was could indeed give Li Huo considerable headaches.

Thus, Ling Feng feared him not.

"I think Elder Li Huo’s suggestion is wise. Court Master, we must bow our heads now," said Golden Element Immortal Emperor.

"Indeed, we also believe so," the other two Early-stage Immortal Emperor powerful figures agreed.

Leng Yanran’s gaze became icy cold.

Clearly a group of greedy and cowardly individuals.

"I will not hand over the Immortal Spring, nor the Divine Artifacts. If this is all your proposal entails, then let’s adjourn," Leng Yanran scoffed.

At her words, Li Huo and others immediately left the hall angrily.

For a time, only Paper Taoist, Ling Feng, Wentian Immortal Emperor, and Leng Yanran remained in the hall.

"Shouldn’t we wake the master up?" Paper Taoist asked.

"No, my husband’s avatar is still asleep. Waking him rashly will only disrupt his cultivation, and he may not be able to help us," Leng Yanran frowned.

Xu Nian’s cultivation time was indeed too short.

Leng Yanran didn’t want Xu Nian dragged into this conflict.

"Waking Xu is of no use; he certainly can’t be much help," Wentian Demon Emperor said.

"But now that the Four Great Forces are outside the sect challenging us to battle, what should we do?" Paper Taoist asked.

"Then let’s fight!" Leng Yanran’s gaze was determined.

Since she had promised to protect the Heavenly Court for Xu Nian, she would fight to the death.
