Chapter 2155: Chapter 1032: The Great Battle at Floating Heaven Palace! The Death of White Wolf

The Dragon Emperor Puppet officially activated, with the three leaders of the Sky Holy Palace guiding it towards the Cosmic Tower to receive the special energy techniques of the Lunar Holy Palace.

During these days, there had been earth-shattering changes within the Sky Holy Palace.

Fu Lingxi, along with Fu Zilin, traveled everywhere to persuade others. At first, there were many words and promises made. Eventually, it became simpler.

Are you willing to follow me? If you are, there will be wealth and glory, and your life will be extended by a hundred years. Even if you die, my father, His Majesty the Demon Emperor, will resurrect you.

If you are unwilling, I will remember you. When my father comes in, even if you surrender, I will refuse and make sure to kill you.

There is no neutrality; one must either surrender or be an enemy.

Thus, those who followed Fu Lingxi and Fu Zilin grew from dozens to hundreds.

Competing against Fu Lingxi and Fu Zilin in this race was Huai Bingyi. He, of course, wasn’t foolish enough to confront Fu Zilin directly to vie for Heaven Tomb Priest. He desperately ran ahead of the two to persuade those who had yet to surrender to Heaven Tomb Priests.

His attempts at persuasion were also quite straightforward.

The Dragon Emperor has been resurrected, and the Lunar Holy Palace is set to intervene; Demon Emperor Lanling is doomed.

In this way, he truly managed to awe quite a few Heaven Tomb Priests.

As such, the entire Sky Holy Palace split into two factions.

The Surrender Faction and the Resolute Faction.

The Surrender Faction had eight hundred people, while the Resolute Faction had nine hundred.

Moreover, only those above the Sub-King level, and above Candidate Sky Judge, were qualified to take sides. Others, even Dragon Saint-level powerhouses, could only stand by and watch.

Fu Lingxi initially thought to continue persuading more to join. However, Fu Zilin believed that first, everyone should swear the Divine Dragon Blood Oath, pledging allegiance to the Chaos Emperor, and have everyone sign the Energy Contract.

Once the Divine Dragon Blood Oath is sworn and the Energy Contract is signed, there would be no turning back.

However, Fu Zilin had a better offer.

For instance, all eight hundred of you can extend your lifespan by a hundred years, become fifty years younger, and have the privilege of one resurrection. Furthermore, your sons could, after grooming, become rulers in the Human Kingdom area.

There are only eight hundred slots for this, and even if more defect later, they won’t receive these gifts.

Perhaps these eight hundred Heaven Tomb Priests were once Sky Priests of the Sky Holy Place, enjoying prosperity and wealth. But after sleeping for hundreds or thousands of years in the Heaven Tomb, their past glories seemed washed away, becoming distant memories.

Once they awakened again, they turned into instruments of battle, with their conditions dropping drastically, causing their longing for wealth and power to reach its zenith.

The conditions Fu Zilin promised undoubtedly struck at the deepest longing of their hearts.

"We are willing to lay down our lives for Your Highness!" The eight hundred Heaven Tomb Priests bowed in unison.

Then, Fu Zilin and Fu Lingxi led these eight hundred Heaven Tomb Priests to the Floating Heaven Palace, the core of the Sky Holy Palace. Not only is it where the highest meetings of the Sky Holy Palace are held, but also where the energy shielding mechanism of the Lunar Holy Palace is located.

These eight hundred surrender-faction Heaven Tomb Priests preemptively attacked the Floating Heaven Palace, the core of the Sky Holy Palace.

Originally, the Floating Heaven Palace was guarded by thousands of samurai, dozens of Heaven Tomb Priests, and one prominent figure from the Dragon Temple’s past — White Wolf, who competed against Jiang Shang for the title of the Human Kingdom’s top warrior.

Of course, White Wolf now considered his pursuit of human top warrior status nothing but a joke.

Decades of struggle couldn’t measure up to a single energy gift.

The major figures of the Sky Holy Palace, especially Zhi Yan, were directly granted King-Level Energy, surpassing a goal White Wolf couldn’t achieve in ten lifetimes, rendering all his struggles meaningless.

And White Wolf was the commander of the Sanctuary Legion guarding the Floating Heaven Palace.

When Fu Zilin and Fu Lingxi led the eight hundred Heaven Tomb Priests to attack the Floating Heaven Palace, the dozens of Heaven Tomb Priests and the Sanctuary Legion, led by White Wolf, were already prepared.

Fu Zilin stepped forward and said, "I am Fu Zilin, son of Chaos Emperor Lanling. I represent my father in offering you surrender. As long as the fifty Heaven Tomb Priests guarding the Floating Heaven Palace surrender, swear the Divine Dragon Blood Oath, and sign the Energy Contract, you can extend your lives by sixty years and become thirty years younger. Otherwise, you will all be executed."

The fifty Heaven Tomb Priests sent to guard the Floating Heaven Palace were the most steadfast individuals. Although their eyes flickered with interest, they stood still, unmoving.

Fu Lingxi said, "White Wolf, you, as Dragon Temple’s greatest prodigy, the former top powerhouse, what was the highest position you achieved after decades of struggle? Martial Arts head instructor at Shenlong Academy, not even a vice principal. The Sky Holy Palace treated you like a dog. You worked hard for decades to become the top warrior of the Sky Holy Palace, only for someone to surpass you with a mere King-Level Energy gift and a casual trial in the Dragon Prison Secret Realm. What’s the point of your decades of hard work? Does such a Sky Holy Palace still deserve your loyalty? Why not surrender to His Majesty the Demon Emperor and embrace rebirth?"

White Wolf’s aloof eyes slightly opened as he said, "My loyalty isn’t to the Dragon Temple but to myself. If I surrendered now, that would be worse than a beast."

Fu Zilin couldn’t stand others putting on a superior act and immediately ordered, "Attack, assault!"

Immediately, the eight hundred Heaven Tomb Priests surged forward to assault the Floating Heaven Palace.

...

Over half an hour later!

The battle ended, all fifty Heaven Tomb Priests guarding the Floating Heaven Palace were captured, and the thousands of the defending Sanctuary Legion were annihilated.

At this moment, fifty Heaven Tomb priests were desperately kowtowing, saying: "Your Highness, we are willing to surrender, we are willing to surrender!"

"Too late..." Fu Zilin said: "Just now I told you to surrender, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now that you wish to surrender, it’s too late!"

Then, he directly ordered: "Execute them all!"

"Swish!"

The blades fell, and all fifty Heaven Tomb priests were beheaded.

Then their energy hearts were ripped out, and their souls completely shattered, utterly dead.

Fu Zilin walked up to White Wolf.

This former strongest of the Dragon Temple, and almost a match for Jiang Shang, the strongest human, still looked defiantly at Fu Zilin, sneering: "You don’t need to waste your words, I won’t surrender. You really do look like your father?"

"You’ve seen my father?" Fu Zilin asked.

"I have seen him and dealt with him," White Wolf said: "If not for the interference of Jiang Shang back then, your father would have fallen into my hands. I watched him grow up, so some things you are unworthy to say to me."

Fu Lingxi beside him said: "Your Highness, this White Wolf was once the strongest of the Dragon Temple, competing with King Dongli Jiang Shang for the title of strongest human, truly a hero."

White Wolf laughed: "Your name is Fu Zilin? As your elder, I tell you, such words of surrender are unnecessary, so as not to tarnish me. You can ask your father if you qualify to convince me to surrender?"

Fu Zilin frowned, directly drew the sharp sword from Fu Lingxi’s waist, and walked to White Wolf, very displeased: "Where did you hear that I want you to surrender? I told you before, if you don’t surrender, now you have no chance. What Dragon Temple’s strongest, what human strongest, what hero? In front of my father, you are nothing! Whether a cat or a dog, if you make me uncomfortable, I will kill you!"

Then, Fu Zilin suddenly thrust his sword into White Wolf’s chest, instantly piercing his heart.

White Wolf was subdued by four Heaven Tomb priests, completely unable to resist, watching helplessly as he was pierced through.

After piercing the heart, Fu Zilin was not satisfied, swung the sharp sword, and fiercely chopped at White Wolf’s head. His strength was small, and it took two or three chops to behead White Wolf.

After beheading, he kicked a few times forcefully.

"I hate it the most when people pretend in front of me, you act as if you’re close with my father, my father is so formidable, how dare you associate yourself with him? I beat you to death, beat you to death..."

Just like that, a generation of hero White Wolf, the first genius of the Dragon Temple, once the strongest, and equal to Jiang Shang as the supreme human martial artist, died at the hands of a child like Fu Zilin.

Witnessing this, Fu Lingxi’s scalp tingled, and her body trembled.

This was probably the most domineering words she had heard: I hate it the most when people pretend in front of me.

The implication is, whoever pretends, I will kill them.

This... is this innate? Is the son of the Chaos Emperor so formidable?

The key is, this child had been holding back all along, and when able to release, it was directly domineering.

Just like that, White Wolf and fifty Heaven Tomb priests all died tragically.

Fu Zilin and Fu Lingxi led eight hundred Heaven Tomb priests, attacking into the Floating Heaven Palace.

Meanwhile, the three leaders of the Sky Holy Palace were still activating the Dragon Emperor Puppet, while Huai Bingyi was desperately persuading the remaining Heaven Tomb priests to choose sides.

And Fu Zilin and Fu Lingxi had already rushed to the Energy Prison outside the Floating Heaven Palace.

Inside there was Ji Xiuning, who was the fourth Hell Knight.

Fu Lingxi said: "Inside is your father’s most loyal Hell Knight, under the ancient Thirteen Demon Kings."

Inside, Ji Xiuning (also the fourth Hell Knight) looked at Fu Lingxi and Fu Zilin with interest.

Fu Zilin said: "Then he is my subordinate?"

Then, Fu Zilin said to Ji Xiuning: "You’ve worked hard."

However, his attitude remained arrogant; he was young but knowledgeable, yet often adhered to his nature, considering them his subordinates, not overly polite, else disgrace his father’s prestige.

Fu Lingxi quickly added: "She is also one of your father’s women, left a pair of children for your father."

At once, Fu Zilin knelt down, childishly saying: "Greetings, Aunt."

Even though the fourth Hell Knight had never favored Fu Lingxi, at this moment she had to meet her eyes. Was this child only... ten years old?

Fu Lingxi immediately knelt, saying: "Sinner Fu Lingxi, pay respects to Prince Your Highness, how can we rescue you?"

Ji Xiuning (fourth Hell Knight) said: "No, rescuing me is not the key, the key is to immediately construct a Heaven-reaching Dragon Tower inside, so that His Majesty can possess some divine power for the upcoming peak battle."
