After giving Nangong Huang and the others some instructions, Chu Kuangren also planned to go into closed-door meditation and consume the Yin Yang Soul Pill to improve his soul energy.
While he was in closed-door meditation.
In the outside world.
In the unknown lands, at the Heavenly Golden Palace.
"Haha, I see! I see!"
The current Heavenly Golden Palace Lord, Sage Ruler Zhang Guang, was holding an ancient book in his hands. He seemed to have understood something as he laughed heartily.
Purplevoid Sage walked up to him and asked curiously, "Palace Lord, why are you so happy?"
"Purplevoid, didn't you tell me a few days ago that you wanted to do something to Chu Kuangren?" Sage Ruler Zhang Guang chuckled.
"Indeed, but didn't you say that Chu Kuangren might be in contact with the Headless Lady and that you've canceled your plan to target him?"
Purplevoid Sage said helplessly.
He did not know that Chu Kuangren was in contact with the Headless Lady. If things went south, they would be in big trouble.
No matter how displeased they were with Chu Kuangren, they would not dare to mess with the entire Heavenly Golden Palace.
"Cancel? How can we cancel it?! "
Sage Ruler Zhang Guang sneered. "This person's existence has broken the balance. We must get rid of him, but before that, we must have a foolproof plan."
"I've been studying the Headless Lady's records for the past few days, and I've finally found a clue about Chu Kuangren's trump card."
Purplevoid Sage's eyes lit up. "What do you mean, Palace Lord?"
"Heh, go and inform the Sect Leaders of Acheron Manor, Ethereal Rapture, Craggy Ocean Tower, and other orthodoxies to gather here. It's time to get rid of Chu Kuangren!"
Sage Ruler Zhang Guang said coldly.
"Yes."
Not long after, a few ancient bronze mirrors appeared in the Heavenly Golden Palace's great hall. A few rays of light shot out from the mirrors and formed into a few figures. They were the Sect Leaders of the unknown lands.
The Craggy Ocean Tower Lord, Acheron Manor Lord, and the others had all appeared in the Heavenly Golden Palace in their spiritual thought forms.
It was a secret technique that allowed the unknown lands to communicate with each other. It was only used during important meetings.
"Brother Zhang Guang, did something happen to summon us with the Mirror Technique?" A middle-aged man with graying temples asked. This person was the Tower Master of the Mysterious Moon Tower in the Unknown Lands.
"I've gathered all of you here because there's a matter that needs to be resolved. That Chu Kuangren cannot be allowed to live any longer," Sage Ruler Zhang Guang said.
Hearing this, the sect leaders looked at each other.
A grey-robed elder, who was the Craggy Ocean Tower Lord, said, "Chu Kuangren's existence is indeed a threat. However, Chu Kuangren's strength is frightening, and he might not be any weaker than anyone here. On top of that, he also has the Headless Lady to rely on. How are you going to deal with him, Brother Zhang Guang?"
At the mention of the Headless Lady, a man with a golden scale on his forehead instantly turned grim. He snorted and said, "I don't think I need to tell you how terrifying that Headless Lady is. If we don't deal with her, how are we going to deal with Chu Kuangren?"
"Heh, Ruins Master, of course I have the confidence to invite you here." Sage King Zhang Guang chuckled.
The eyes of the others lit up.
"Does Daoist Zhang Guang have a way to deal with the headless woman?"
"How is that possible? That woman must have been an emperor when she was alive. How could the Heavenly Golden Palace possibly handle her?"
"What in the world is going on?"
The sect leaders were in disbelief.
Although the unknown lands were said to have a strong foundation, they did not have many Emperors. It was impossible for them to deal with an Emperor. Otherwise, the Bottomless Chasm would not have been so badly injured.
"The Heavenly Golden Palace may not be able to handle the Headless Lady, but the Black Heaven Sect is even more unlikely!" Sage King Zhang Guang said.
"What do you mean?"
The Dark Moon Inn Lord asked.
"I've looked through the ancient records. The Headless Lady has appeared a few times in history. According to the records, the Headless Lady behaves oddly as if she's looking for her head …"
"Before Chu Kuangren, the Headless Lady first appeared several tens of thousands of years ago. She had an encounter with a Boundary Emperor and severely injured that Boundary Emperor. According to the records, that Boundary Emperor had a woman's head in his possession. That Boundary Emperor then fled to the Outer Seas, and there has been no news of him ever since."
"If I'm not mistaken, the nameless island that appeared not long ago was the residence of that Boundary Emperor. He had the Headless Lady's head, and the island's appearance caused the Headless Lady to reappear."
"I'm sure everyone knows that Chu Kuangren obtained an Opportunity of Fortune on that island. I'm guessing that the Opportunity of Fortune is the Headless Lady's head. When Chu Kuangren severely injured the Bottomless Chasm previously, he used that head to lure the Headless Lady to the Outer Seas. That's his greatest source of confidence!"
Sage King Zhang Guang explained.
The crowd fell into deep thought after they heard that.
"Chu Kuangren may not be able to control the Headless Lady, but he has this weapon in his hands. That's enough to make us hesitate. However, if we join forces and attack the Black Heaven Sect, no matter how crazy Chu Kuangren is, he won't dare to summon the Headless Lady here."
"Because if the Headless Lady appears in the Black Heaven Sect, the Black Heaven Sect will be as good as gone."
Sage King Zhang Guang continued.
He had more or less analyzed the Headless Lady, and he made it clear that he wanted the unknown lands to join him in attacking the Black Heaven Sect. That way, they could eliminate the threat that was Chu Kuangren once and for all!
"Since Chu Kuangren dared not summon the Headless Lady, then I shall not let this matter rest so easily. Count me in for the Black Heaven Sect's annihilation!" The Great Chasm Dweller of the Bottomless Chasm said.
"My empyrean walker from Acheron Manor has died in Chu Kuangren's hands. I intend to settle this score with him as well."
The Acheron Manor Lord also accepted Sage Ruler Zhang Guang's invitation.
The others looked at each other and seemed to be hesitating.
"Count Ethereal Rapture in."
Master Daoist Yun Tao of Ethereal Rapture said calmly. The thought of Chu Kuangren taking away so many Premium chalcedonies made him grit his teeth in anger. Of course, he would not let go of such a great opportunity to get rid of Chu Kuangren.
"Everyone, Chu Kuangren is too much of a threat. We must succeed this time! Therefore, the more power, the better! "
Sage King Zhang Guang looked at the remaining sect leaders and said.
"This matter is of great importance. Let us think about it."
The Craggy Ocean Tower Lord said.
"Alright. Please give me an answer in three days. If there's no reply in three days, we'll assume that you're not participating in this operation."
Sage Ruler Zhang Guang said.
"Alright."
"Understood."
The sect leaders replied one by one before their spiritual thought transformations dispersed.
Inside the Craggy Ocean Tower.
The Craggy Ocean Tower Lord was still hesitating. "Chu Kuangren is an unfathomable person. Who knows how many trump cards he has up his sleeves? Besides, he has the Headless Lady's head in his hands. What if he goes berserk and kills everyone? This matter is of great importance, so I must think about it carefully. "
At that moment, a young man walked into the palace.
"Eh, Yuan Xian, why are you back?"
The Craggy Ocean Tower Lord was surprised.
Yuan Xian was the Craggy Ocean Tower's new empyrean walker after Li Ze's death.
"Honorable Teacher, I'm back because I've found out who killed Senior Brother Li Ze," Yuan Xian said solemnly.
"Who is it?"
A murderous intent flashed across the Craggy Ocean Tower Lord's eyes.
"Chu Kuangren!"
