The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood-Chapter 1045 - 1046: A Shocking Plan

Lei Hong watched helplessly as Ye Mo and Xiao Yue entered the depths of Wraith Mountain, yet was powerless to do anything.

He knew Ye Mo could enter Wraith Mountain without any concerns was definitely due to his deployment of the Chu Assassination Domain, making it undetectable to others.

Just as Lei Hong was about to enter Wraith Mountain, streams of Profound Qi Beams swept over, directly blocking Lei Hong.

Following that, several experts emerged from within Wraith Mountain, appearing before Lei Hong.

There were four experts in total, the weakest among them possessed the Wheel of Reincarnation Fourth Transformation, while the strongest even had the Wheel of Reincarnation Fifth Revolution.

These four individuals had overwhelming and far-reaching auras; facing Lei Hong, they all had an aloof demeanor.

"Lei Hong, weren’t you ordered to block the entrance to Wraith Mountain with your disciples? Why have you come inside instead?"

One of the experts, appearing to be in his forties, spoke with utter arrogance, showing no regard for Lei Hong, despite being at the Wheel of Reincarnation Fifth Revolution.

"Heh, Fang Zhiqiang, there’s a situation here: a formidable foe, who bears a grudge against me, destroyed my Thunder Fortress and sneaked inside Wraith Mountain. I must go in now and kill him."

Lei Hong looked at this expert, his face showing an insincere smile.

"A formidable foe? How come we don’t know? If such an adversary infiltrated Wraith Mountain, our Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion would certainly be aware."

Fang Zhiqiang said indifferently.

"Indeed, someone stealthily entered Wraith Mountain."

Lei Hong explained again, though he didn’t mention Ye Mo at all. If they learned he was chasing Ye Mo, he’d likely get no chance at all.

"Someone? You’re saying the foe you’re pursuing infiltrated Wraith Mountain without us noticing?"

At this moment, an expert at the Wheel of Reincarnation Fifth Revolution spoke domineeringly.

One sentence promptly left Lei Hong speechless. To admit it would be indirectly slapping the face of Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion.

Nonetheless, Ye Mo had to be killed. Even if he didn’t get the credit, he must bring Ye Mo down.

"That’s not what I meant!"

Lei Hong chuckled. His Thunder Sect, though akin to Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion as a second-rate force, was top-tier, hosting experts at the Wheel of Reincarnation Nine Transformations, on par with the Yuwen Family.

Both his Thunder Sect and Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion were subsidiaries of the first-rate force Huangji Hall, which in turn was a subsidiary of the God-Devouring Blood Tiger Clan.

"However, you claimed your Thunder Fortress was destroyed. It’s not entirely baseless, but if you wish to enter Wraith Mountain, we’ll need clearance from our Estate Master."

The expert at the Wheel of Reincarnation Fifth Revolution said.

"Alright!"

Lei Hong nodded, speaking no further.

This time, they came to Wraith Mountain for a major task, but his Thunder Sect was only responsible for guarding the entrance, while Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion and Huangji Hall were the main forces in this mission.

Inside Wraith Mountain, in an open space, were three people. One appeared to be a sixty-year-old elder, with crane-white beard, hooked nose, and exceedingly sinister eyes, like a predatory eagle.

This person was the Hall Master of the first-rate force Huangji Hall, Huangji God Venerate, a newly ascended expert in the Divine Venerate Realm.

Yet, this Divine Venerate Realm expert, standing before the man opposite, seemed somewhat reserved. If Ye Mo were here, he’d surely recognize this individual as Jiang Hu, the previous Clan Leader of the God-Devouring Blood Tiger Clan.

Furthermore, a middle-aged man stood nervously, unable to insert himself into the conversation between the two; he was the Estate Master of Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion, Muu Hongyan.

"Master Jiang Hu, rest assured, this time we will accomplish the plan."

Huangji God Venerate said to Jiang Hu, full of reverence.

Despite both being Divine Venerate Realm One-Soul, neither Huangji God Venerate’s strength nor stature could compare to Jiang Hu’s; it was like heaven and earth.

"Good!"

Jiang Hu felt quite satisfied with Huangji God Venerate’s demeanor.

Since losing the Clan Leader title over Ye Mo’s affair, Jiang Hu’s status had naturally declined. To reclaim the title, he needed substantial contributions, and this plan was his secret execution.

"Huangji God Venerate, as long as your intel proves accurate, you’ll reap great rewards afterward. You shall become our God-Devouring Blood Tiger Clan’s most loyal friend."

"Master Jiang Hu, I often dispatch people to Wraith Mountain for information, discovering this pattern: every decade, Wraith Mountain has a "Yinkui" Day, suppressing the power of the Wraith Kingdom, causing the Wraith Energy to vanish, replaced by Yuan Chi of Heaven and Earth, greatly weakening the Wraith Demon Emperor."

Huangji God Venerate smiled: "The intel is exclusively known by Huangji Hall, with less than three days until "Yinkui" Day arrives, marking our chance to act. We can seize all the Water of Death Spring and Life Spring, along with slaying the Wraith Demon Emperor and acquiring his cultivation technique and legacy."

As he spoke, Huangji God Venerate’s face beamed with pride, as if everything had been seized already.

"If we fail to slay the Wraith Demon Emperor, he’ll eventually break free from the Water of Death Spring and Life Spring’s suppression, leading to devastation. This time, we are indeed upholding righteousness."

Jiang Hu nodded, speaking with grandeur.

"Moreover, if we are to seize the springs entirely, we must kill the Wraith Demon Emperor."

Huangji God Venerate also nodded.

"Masters, this time, Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion will hold the frontlines, fully supporting you."

Standing aside, Muu Hongyan spoke.

If they could help Jiang Hu kill the Wraith Demon Emperor and take all the springs, Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion would see a complete turnaround.

"Alright, on Yinkui Day, we’ll venture deep inside Wraith Mountain."

The three instantly agreed in unison.

"Very well, I’ll assign people to watch every move inside Wraith Mountain. Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion and Huangji Hall disciples are making final preparations, but the key to killing the Wraith Demon Emperor depends on this Great Universal Demonic Extermination Array’s power."

Huangji God Venerate nodded, then turned to leave, arranging this major event.

Meanwhile, Ye Mo inside Wraith Mountain knew nothing of these dealings, but he noticed a clear area with numerous disciples, one thousand roughly, all experts above the Wheel of Reincarnation Realm.

These disciples wore attire of either color, seemingly training for something.

Ye Mo suspected that Wraith Mountain was about to witness a significant event.

Ye Mo and Xiao Yue didn’t pay any mind; having escaped Lei Hong’s pursuit, they planned to uncover the whereabouts of the Life Spring and Water of Death Spring, heading further into Wraith Mountain.
