"This is probably the most intense change in the Heaven Roll in the past hundred years."
Yan Wushuang sighed. "In the end, a Minister of the Imperial Court announced the Thousand Silk Sword, Mu Tianliu, ranked eighth on the Heaven Roll. There are eight Grandmasters in total. The Imperial Court is planning to hold a World Banquet next year to summon the other Grandmasters to the capital and give them the title of Celestial Beings. From then on, the Eight Celestial Beings will rule the Jianghu forever!"
"Is this a show of strength to ask for amnesty or a show of killing intent?"
Chung Shen-soo thought to himself.
First of all, he was sure that after all these things, the Imperial Court did not have many Grandmasters left.
There might have been twenty Grandmasters before, but there might only be eight … no, seven Grandmasters left on the Heaven Roll.
If the Imperial Court still had Grandmasters, they would definitely show up and threaten the Jianghu world.
But … Grandmasters often died in battles.
The Five Venoms Sect, the Stone Buddha Temple, the Butterfly Saber Sect … these Great Grandmasters had been destroyed, and the old Reverends that the Imperial Court had accumulated for many years, as well as the foreign experts that the Six Emptiness Sect had roped in, were almost all dead.
It could be said that the Heaven Roll was a comparison of the power of the world!
Because of this, the Imperial Court's announcement made people feel even more hopeless.
"On the Imperial Court's side, there are the Great Minister, the Blood-Robed Marquis, Mu Tianliu …
"On the Itinerant Cultivators' side, the crazy Taoist is crazy and his tracks are a mystery. It doesn't matter who the world belongs to and he escaped. Other than that, the Ten Ultimates and the Fisherman of the East Sea are also Itinerant Cultivators. I don't know which side they're on. Maybe they've been bought by the Imperial Court, or maybe they're a spy like the Six Hollow Sect …"
By now, Chung Shen-soo guessed that the Six Hollow Sect was most likely a force that the Imperial Court had set up long ago.
Otherwise, how could a group of merchants, no matter how strong they were, do business in the entire Great Wu Dynasty?
Unless they were royal merchants!
"Then there are the Orthodox Dao and the Demon Dao … The Undying Evil Emperor and the Thousand Poisons Hands are both mine!
"The Imperial Court is powerful and rules the world. It doesn't care about those Itinerant Cultivators and doesn't infringe on their interests. The only thing it offends is the interests of the major sects and families …
"But now … I have to shoulder it alone? I'd have to be crazy to carry it! "
The current situation was very clear. The Imperial Court had been plotting in secret for many years, and they had used the Five Poison Sect as an opportunity to first destroy the Five Poison Sect. Then, they would eliminate the other Great Grandmasters.
It was only now that the imperial court believed that they had the absolute advantage that they openly revealed their strength through the Heavenly List. They held the Banquet of the World and summoned all the Great Grandmasters to the capital. They put on a high profile to recruit the rogue cultivators. If they refused, they would die!
"Haha … Banquet of the Realm? I'll definitely go. "
Chung Shen-soo laughed and agreed readily. "After all … I'm also a Foreign Advisor of the Divine Arrester Sect. I have to support the imperial court!"
Yes, when the time came, the condition of enlistment would be to look at the and then commit suicide on the spot.
"That's good, that's good …"
Yan Wu Shuang seemed to have put down a load on her mind. She felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders. She handed over an exquisitely designed invitation to Chung Shen-soo.
"On the first day of January, the World Banquet, the Eight Celestial Beings will forever suppress the martial world."
There were only these sixteen words on the invitation.
It vaguely seemed to state the conditions of enlistment.
Although Chung Shen-soo did not know what the Stone Buddha Temple and the other sects were thinking, he felt that it was not bad.
It was just that the title was a little boring.
If it was something like "Eight Warlords of the Sea" or "Eight New Martial Emperors", it might be more interesting.
"Then, I'll take my leave."
Yan Wu Shuang let out a long sigh and left.
In fact, as a Grandmaster of the Divine Arrester Sect, although she could not directly kill the Great Grandmasters, she would definitely participate in the side affairs. She knew a little about the imperial court's plan.
At this moment, seeing that Xun Liuyi did not have any resentment, she did not have to be in a dilemma. She could not help but feel happy.
She used her Lightness Skill and leaped out of the city gate to the wilderness.
Under a mound, the Divine Arrester Sect had been transformed into a stronghold. Looking at the traces of the surrounding buildings, it was still very new.
It was likely that after Xun Liuyi was promoted to the Heavenly List, the Divine Arrester Sect had increased their investment in this area.
In fact, in the secret stronghold, a Divine Arrester who looked like a farmer was already waiting there.
"Greetings, Great Divine Arrester."
Seeing this person, Yan Wu Shuang immediately bowed.
"What did Xun Liuyi say?"
The Iron Blood Arrester turned around and asked calmly.
Ever since Chung Shen-soo entered Small Mountain City, there seemed to be news of his arrival.
"He's very happy. He said that he will definitely attend the banquet," Yan Wu Shuang said confidently.
"Very good."
The Iron Blood Arrester had a look of relief on his face. "The banquet of the world is extremely important. The Divine Arrester Sect must do our best to supervise this matter. After this banquet, the imperial court will truly be able to rule the world. We will also be honored to have repaid the imperial court's great kindness. "
The Great Divine Arrester, who had always been stone-faced, actually blushed. It was obvious that he was extremely excited.
"Restore the imperial court's prosperity, suppress the four seas, and attract people from all over the world …"
Yan Wu Shuang was also excited.
Then, the Iron Blood Arrester's cold voice came into her ears. "For this goal, we will destroy anyone who stands in our way!"
The Iron Blood Arrester laughed coldly. "The invitation has been sent. The crazy Taoist is crazy. Don't worry about him. The Ten Ultimate Martial Artists have already accepted the invitation. As for the East Sea Fisherman, hehe, although this old man lives in seclusion in the East Sea, fishing for pleasure every day and doesn't care about the outside world … But we found out that he is the hidden Grand Supreme Elder of the East Sea Gang. The East Sea Gang's main business is shipping. The livelihood of tens of thousands of people is under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.
"In the end, only the Undead Evil Emperor of the Evil Monarch Sect is left. According to our spies, the Undead Evil Emperor has been behaving strangely recently. It's as if he has changed into a different person. Maybe there is a hidden Grandmaster who has reached an agreement with the Undead Evil Emperor to disguise himself as the Undead Evil Emperor. Or maybe he is the second hidden Grandmaster of the Evil Monarch Sect. He is going around alone to attract attention while the real Undead Evil Emperor is hiding and plotting … The main target of this banquet is the Evil Monarch Sect … "
The imperial court wanted to purge the martial arts world. All the forces in the martial arts world were in danger. It was very possible that there was a Grandmaster who had secretly reached an agreement with the Undead Evil Emperor to work together.
Tie Xue had also fallen into a fixed train of thought. After all, the Undying Evil Emperor who cultivated the [Nine Deaths Life Returning Evil Technique] was unparalleled in the world. He was even more difficult to kill than the Holy Monk, so how could he possibly die so quietly?
"Don't worry, my lord." Yan Wu Shuang agreed.
She had always wanted to eliminate the evil and protect the righteous. "I will keep an eye on the Evil Monarch Sect …"
"No, you only need to take care of the Mountain Medicine Gang … Although Xun Liu Yi has just broken through, he is extremely talented and is a peerless genius. He will definitely grow to the level of the Holy Monk and the Undead Evil Emperor … He is also a hidden danger."
The Iron Blood Arrester's eyes turned deep. "Although he is a Foreign Minister, he is still a Foreign Minister! When we confirm that he is going to leave, immediately control the Mountain Medicine Gang … He will be the main force against the Evil Monarch Sect in this banquet! This is also the order of the higher-ups! "
"What?" Yan Wu Shuang was shocked. "Why?"
"The world will be decided by one person! Only then can we end the chaos … "The Iron Blood Arrester's tone was cold." For such a grand goal, even if we kill millions of people, it will be the same. Don't forget your first vow! "
