Not long after everyone went down, Zhong Zhenyang sneakily came back.
He took out a universe ring and said with a flattering expression, "Your Royal Highness, we are old friends.
Netherworld Sect bullied Wang Family before, but it was all that bastard Luo Jiuyou's idea. Our three families didn't participate.
It's just that we old guys have a blood feud with Zhao Family.
Emperor Zhao is magnanimous and won't lower himself to our level.
It's just that the younger generation of Zhao Family will inevitably target us. Their lives won't be easy.
We heard that Your Royal Highness can confer the title of Marquis and below, so we want to work for you.
This is the universe ring I got from exploring the cave of an ancient cultivator. The space inside is five hundred feet square.
The copies of Netherworld Sect's inheritance made by my family's younger generation are all inside.
In addition, there are some local specialties of Netherworld Sect. Please kindly accept them. "
Although Netherworld Sect's three families had titles, their fiefs had not been determined.
After Zhao Family quelled the rebellion, they would reward meritorious officials.
There were Zhao Family's relatives, Lin Hai's thirteen families, and the old nobles. Netherworld Sect's three families were not on the same side as any other power.
If there was no one above them, they could live, but after they died, their younger generations would be bullied to death.
Wang Daoyuan was also very tempted by this item. The inheritance that the Underworld Sect had accumulated for thousands of years was a huge treasure to any force.
However, he didn't dare to agree easily. If he accepted them as his subordinates, it would be a blatant expansion of his power. It would be easy to be suspected of disloyalty.
He waved his hand again and again. "I don't dare to make this decision. You surrendered to Emperor Zhao, not me.
Emperor Zhao should have the final say on where the fief is.
Besides, there are no large Yin Veins in my territory. "
Zhong Zhenyang said with a smile, "We don't dare to ask for success. When His Majesty assigns titles, Your Royal Highness can say a few good words.
It doesn't matter if there are Yin Veins or not. As early as a hundred years ago, when the Yin Qi in Mingshui River disappeared, we began to prepare.
There are some clansmen who practice righteous cultivation methods in the family. Even if there are no Yin Veins, the family can continue.
If we have Yin Meridians, even if we have to seal ourselves in the bitter cold of the Northern Mountains, we are willing to do so. "
Wang Daoyuan nodded. "If that's the case, it's not a problem to say a few words, but I can't guarantee that it will work."
Zhong Zhenyang's face was full of joy. "It's good that Your Highness is willing to ask. I hope Your Highness will kindly accept these local specialties."
Wang Daoyuan accepted the Interspatial Ring without hesitation.
It had to be said that Zhong Zhenyang was really good at doing things. There were indeed many good things in his Interspatial Ring.
In addition to a large number of jade slips and beast skin books, there were also piles of third and fourth grade refining materials and processed spirit herbs.
Naturally, there was also the Purple Gold Jade Marrow Fruit. He had also gathered all the supplementary herbs needed to form the Gold Core.
Moreover, the seeds of these spirit herbs were still preserved.
The local specialties of the Underworld Sect were really good. He secretly decided that he would also plunder some local specialties from the Cruel Sun Palace.
Two days later, the resources and manpower of the Underworld Sect had been allocated, and they were ready to go to battle at any time.
Wang Daoyuan ordered a Golden Core cultivator from Linhai State to guard the Underworld Sect.
There were also low-level cultivators from the Zhao Clan, Linhai State, Guiyuan Sword Sect, and some cultivators under the command of the Duke's Manor.
Of course, there were also many cultivators from the Underworld Sect.
The cultivators were a little mixed, so no one could have an absolute advantage. That way, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble.
Wang Daoyuan led seven Golden Core cultivators to the west.
He had to take low-level cultivators with him. The cultivators of the Underworld Sect's Luo Clan could not be left out.
Wang Daoyuan didn't have the intention to scheme against them. To put it bluntly, the Luo Clan's cultivators were just cannon fodder.
The losses from the Cruel Sun Palace might not be great, but after taking it down, there were still battles to fight.
Zhong Zhenyang, that old fox, knew his attitude towards the Luo Clan. Without his orders, he would send the Luo Clan's cultivators to the most dangerous place.
Ten third-tier flying warships, one fourth-tier middle-tier flying warship, and thirty flying boats, under the leadership of eight Gold Core Realm cultivators, headed west.
The Cruel Sun Palace wasn't far from the Underworld Sect. It was in the Sunset County, east of Darkwater County.
It was said that in ancient times, a Golden Crow had fallen here, so it was named the Sunset County. The Cruel Sun Palace was in the Sunset Valley in the middle of the Sunset County.
There was something special about the Sunset Valley. There were cliffs on both sides and a lava river in the middle.
The lava in other places was eight thousand to ten thousand feet below the surface, but the lava river in the Sunset Valley was only two thousand feet above the surface.
Also, the Spirit Qi in the lava river was comparable to a Rank Four high-grade Spirit Vein.
The entire Sunset Valley was five hundred miles long and fifty miles wide at its widest.
The buildings in the Cruel Sun Palace were on the cliffs on both sides of the Sunset Valley.
There were also huge stone pillars protruding from the lava river. A few buildings were built on these pillars.
When Wang Daoyuan and the others arrived at the Sunset Valley, the Cruel Sun Palace didn't surrender immediately like the Underworld Sect.
The Sunset Valley was enveloped by a Rank Four High Grade Defensive Array. Breaking through this kind of Defensive Array was not something that could be done in a short period of time.
They found a Rank Three mid-grade Spirit Vein east of the Sunset Valley as their temporary base.
Then, Wang Daoyuan led the Golden Core cultivators to check the Sunset Valley's Defense Formation. Of course, it was also to intimidate the Cruel Sun Palace.
Of the eight Golden Core cultivators, four were late-stage Golden Core cultivators.
The Cruel Sun Palace only had three Golden Core cultivators at the very most.
One was Sect Master Golden Sun, one was Grand Elder Earthflame, and the last was Lei Wudao, who had just formed his Core.
This guy had been nurtured as a Golden Core seedling and had finally formed his Core recently.
The three of them together were two times the battle power of Lord Waterfront Sea. They were nothing in front of Wang Daoyuan.
Qian Yang stepped forward and shouted, "I'm Qian Yang, the hidden Golden Core cultivator of the Cruel Sun Palace. In terms of seniority, I'm the same as Golden Sun Sect Master.
Now, the Cruel Sun Palace has lost almost all its Golden Core cultivators. It's impossible to stop Emperor Zhao's army.
Emperor Zhao has decreed that cultivators of the three sects who surrender will redeem themselves and those who betray will be rewarded.
After I surrendered, I helped the Duke kill the Underworld Sect's Sect Master Luo Jiuyou and his brother. I'm now a Count.
The four Golden Core cultivators of the Underworld Sect killed the Golden Core cultivators of the Luo Family who didn't want to surrender.
If you can surrender before the Duke makes his move, you'll be rewarded with a city and a title.
After Emperor Zhao quells the rebellion, those with titles will be rewarded with land.
Fellow disciples, it's up to you whether you want to be killed or be rewarded with land. "
After Qian Yang finished speaking, there was no movement in the Cruel Sun Palace.
Wang Daoyuan didn't want to waste time and took out the Meteorite Fire Controlling Gourd. Red and gold flames gushed out of the gourd.
Below was a lava river and a High Grade Rank Four Fire Spiritual Vein. The fire spiritual qi was extremely rich.
The golden flames quickly ignited the fire spiritual qi and the fire quickly spread.
He also took out the Vermillion Bird Fan and used the Vermillion Bird Fire Controlling Technique.
The Vermillion Bird phantom attacked the defensive formation with the golden flames.
The lava river below was also ignited by the golden flames and the fire became even fiercer.
Wang Daoyuan only needed to consume a small amount of spiritual sense to control the flames of the Fire Controlling Gourd.
Not only did he not need to consume spiritual power, he could also continuously extract spiritual power from the golden flames.
If this continued, it wouldn't be a problem to last for ten days or half a month.
The attack of the Vermillion Bird phantom was also extremely powerful under the support of the endless flames.
The fiery red light barrier of the defensive formation slightly trembled under the attack.
The defensive formation of the Cruel Sun Palace should be both offensive and defensive.
But this formation was only passive and didn't have the slightest intention of attacking.
Fire-attribute formations were good at offense and didn't have much of a defensive ability.
The cultivators of the Cruel Sun Palace abandoned their strengths and used their weaknesses. If this continued, the formation wouldn't be able to last much longer.
At this moment, Zhong Zhenyang took out a formation testing disk and began to search for the formation's weakness.
Fifteen minutes later, a late-stage Violet Palace Realm cultivator appeared in the center of the Setting Sun Valley, in front of a palace on a stone pillar.
He cupped his hands at Wang Daoyuan. "Greetings, Your Highness. The Grand Elder, Palace Lord, and Vice Palace Lord have already used the sect's backup plan to escape the Setting Sun Valley a day ago.
They also took away the talented disciples in the palace, as well as all the inheritances and resources they could take away.
Now, there are only a few old and weak people left in the formation, as well as a few mortals.
Please give them a way out and let them go, Your Highness.
If you want to kill them, I'll take responsibility.
As long as Your Highness agrees, I'll close the defensive formation. "
