The people of the Nine States had heard rumors that the Great Zhou Sacred King was interested in the Glass Saint and had pursued her since he was young.
But the real enmity between the two was only known to the older generation of saints who had cultivated for a very long time and the people of the Eastern State.
It could even be traced back to the decline of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty and the rise of the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple.
Usually, the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty and the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple had been at peace for many years. But in reality, the relationship between the holy lands of the Nine States was very delicate. The Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty had once been the absolute overlord of the Eastern State. The rise of Xihua Sacred Mountain and the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple meant that they had swallowed up the power of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. How could there be no enmity between them?
However, as Saint Plane figures, their temperaments were extraordinary. You wouldn't be able to tell even if they sat together on a normal day.
However, in the context of the Sacred War, the enmity of the past had been stirred up.
This time, the alliance between Xihua Sacred Mountain and the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty included an agreement about the Glass Saint. After the Barren State, the two forces would make a move on the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple. Otherwise, why would the two forces give everything of the Holy Zhi Palace to Zhisheng Cliffs?
The three holy lands each had their own needs. The Great Zhou Sacred King wanted the Glass Saint and the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple.
Similarly, the reason why the Glass Saint chose to erupt at this time and stand on Ye Futian's side was not because she wanted to participate in the Sacred War. She knew that with the alliance of the three holy lands, after the Barren State's Holy Zhi Palace, the Great Zhou Sacred King would make a move on her.
The Great Zhou Sacred King had coveted her for a long time.
But many people still did not know about the things that had happened in the Eastern State before. They looked at the two of them in surprise. The two figures who stood at the top of the Eastern State had turned against each other in an instant, and their words were so sharp and decisive.
The Great Zhou Sacred King said that he had built the Lapis Lazuli Palace in the palace of the Sacred Dynasty in preparation for the Glass Saint. The Glass Saint said that if the Great Zhou Sacred King did not die, she would not be at ease. What kind of enmity was this?
Ye Futian also looked over there in surprise and seemed to understand some things.
The Barren State had always been isolated from the Nine States, so it was only natural that they did not know much about the Eastern State. Even those of the older generation did not know much about it, let alone Ye Futian.
He had only heard that the Great Zhou Sacred King had designs on the Glass Saint, the number one beauty of the Eastern State. It had been like that since they were young.
The Glass Saint's expression turned even colder after hearing that the Great Zhou Sacred King had built a Lapis Lazuli Palace in the royal palace. She no longer had any of her usual gentleness and gentleness. A murderous intent emanated from her. Her long hair billowed as she stepped forward. An extremely cold will burst from her body, freezing the space around them. It was as if the perilous aura in the imperial mausoleum was about to be sealed. She did not bother with the Great Zhou Sacred King and continued to move forward.
At that moment, Xia Qingyuan and the cultivators brought by Li Yao, who were at the forefront, rushed up to the giant puppet on the ninety-nine zhang staircase. A sword seemed to have come from the sky, and a palm seemed to have covered the sky, shattering the giant puppet right away. Suddenly, the oppressive power that had been attacking them disappeared, and they all moved forward in a straight line.
The Great Zhou Sacred King walked beside the Glass Saint and did not care about the coldness coming from her at all. It was as if he wanted to move forward with her. He said, "Glass, I know that it is hard for you to let go of what happened all those years ago, and it has affected your state of mind. I, Zhou Zhiming, will be able to cultivate together from then on, and we will definitely be able to go one step further. Back then, the two of us had great reputations in the Eastern State. I, Zhou Zhiming, dominated the Eastern State for a generation, and you were the only one who could stand shoulder to shoulder with me. Many people hoped that the two of us would become a match made in heaven."
The disgust in the Glass Saint's cold eyes grew. Back then, she came from a renowned clan in the Eastern State, and both her talent and appearance were peerless. When she was young, she was valued by the lord of the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple at that time, who allowed her to enter the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple as a personal disciple, and her name was known throughout the Eastern State for a while.
At that time, she was already engaged, and her fiancé was also an extremely renowned genius. Their families were also old friends, and it was as if they were made for each other.
However, despite their great reputation, there was no way they could compete with Zhou Zhiming, who was already known throughout the world at that time, and was the Crown Prince of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty.
After she became famous, the lord of the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple wanted to take her as a disciple, which attracted Zhou Zhiming's attention. After seeing her, he pursued her madly, and went to her family to propose marriage, asking her to be his concubine.
At that time, the Sacred King of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty and the lord of the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple were not on good terms, and there was even a deep grudge between them. The reason why the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty paid attention to her was also because of this grudge. Under such circumstances, there was no way she would agree.
In order to avoid trouble, she and the rest of her family decided to cut the Gordian knot quickly, first settling the marriage and marrying her fiancé.
On that day, she wore a phoenix crown and a robe, looking extremely beautiful. She was full of expectations for the future. While she could not say that she liked her fiancé at that time, as a good friend of a family, she naturally did not dislike him. Moreover, after the wedding, she would enter the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple to cultivate.
However, she never thought that that day would be her nightmare.
She was taken away from her family by the people who had come to pick her up, but she did not go to her fiancé's family. Instead, she entered the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, and the person waiting for her was Zhou Zhiming.
Her fiancé and his family, who were old friends, directly sold her to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty.
She still remembered to this day that in the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, Zhou Zhiming was high and mighty, and he made her the Crown Princess of the Sacred Dynasty, gave her wealth, and wanted to marry her.
Her response was to take the dowry that her family had prepared for her, a divine implement, and stab it into her heart. She would rather die than suffer such humiliation.
Fortunately, her master came to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty forcefully after hearing about the matter and took her away right in front of Zhou Zhiming's father. He took her to the Lapis Lazuli Holy Temple and brought her back from the dead, saving her life.
However, she survived. More than three thousand people in her family, including guest guards and subordinates, were reduced to ashes. They died at the hands of the Golden Phoenix Army of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. Not a single one of them survived. Apart from her, there was only one servant girl left in the family.
That was the mighty one ranked on the Sage Ranking next to her, Jiang Yuechan.
Later, after she became accomplished in her cultivation, she brought her servant Jiang Yuechan and destroyed her fiancé's family. She cut off her fiancé's head with her own hands, showing no mercy.
After that, there was the Glass Saint of today.
"Glass, what happened back then caused my father and your master to die together. Two giants of the Eastern State perished in a battle at the pinnacle. Is that not enough to resolve the grudge from back then?" The Great Zhou Sacred King appeared very calm and continued, "Furthermore, you wanted me dead back then and cut off my path to sainthood, causing me to delay my ascension to the Saint Plane by decades. Did I ever blame you for that?"
"Get lost," the Glass Saint said coldly. Zhou Zhiming had evoked memories of the past, and her body was as cold as ice.
She was naturally not naive enough to think that someone like Zhou Zhiming would be so infatuated with her. However, she had rejected him many times back then and would rather die than submit. That had dealt a heavy blow to the peerless genius who had been crowned the Crown Prince of the Sacred Dynasty at a young age. That was why her family had been massacred. He had to do what he wanted to do, and no one could defy him.
She had cut off his path to sainthood and almost killed him several times. Zhou Zhiming probably hated her more than he loved her. She knew very well that to Zhou Zhiming, she was nothing more than an obsession, one that Zhou Zhiming could never get rid of.
If she agreed to join the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty's Lapis Lazuli Palace and become Zhou Zhiming's woman, Zhou Zhiming would be able to get his way and kill her right away after getting her.
Zhou Zhiming was her inner demon, and similarly, she was his inner demon.
If Zhou Zhiming did not die, she would not be able to rest easy.
Zhou Zhiming's expression was cold when he heard the Glass Saint's words. He took a cold look at Ye Futian, who was not far away, and said, "Do you think you can deal with me just by joining in this Sacred War? Ye Futian of the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State? It won't be long before he becomes a dead man. You want to get out of this situation? Dream on. Li, it's laughable that you, the number one beauty in the Eastern State, are so beautiful that even in the entire Nine States, few can compare to you in terms of beauty and talent. Yet, you still need to feign civility with a junior who is still wet behind the ears. Do you still want to borrow his strength? "
"He can't even protect himself, and the saints of the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State are hiding. How do you plan to break out of this situation?" The Great Zhou Sacred King said coldly. On the other side, Saint Xihua also slowed down, which made many look surprised.
Were these two saints planning to make a move against the Glass Saint in the imperial mausoleum?
The Great Zhou Sacred King's expression was extremely sharp as he took a look at Ye Futian. Sister Glass Saint? What a joke.
Ye Futian naturally also felt the Great Zhou Sacred King's gaze, and he also heard their conversation.
It seemed that the enmity between the Great Zhou Sacred King and the Glass Saint was far more complicated than he had imagined.
Back then, Jieyu had joked that if he were to pursue the Glass Saint, she did not know if the Great Zhou Sacred King's mind would collapse. At that time, he had taken it as a joke. Now it seemed that Jieyu might have been right, and there was such a possibility.
The Great Zhou Sacred King was determined to get the Glass Saint, but he did not usually show it and hid it very well.
As for the Great Zhou Sacred King's mockery, he did not care too much, and his state of mind was not the slightest bit affected.
"Zhou Zhiming." Ye Futian smiled and said, "Great Zhou Sacred King, your name is very domineering, but do you know your fate?"
The Great Zhou Sacred King glanced at Ye Futian, and his eyes were full of murderous intent, as if he was looking at a dead man. Today, if it were not for Xia Qingyuan and the people of the other holy lands, he really could not help but kill Ye Futian. That Saint Zhi was sad, for he did not have the courage to do it.
"Today, the leaders of the two holy lands of the Eastern State, are they going to deal with a woman?" Ye Futian saw that Saint Xihua and the Great Zhou Sacred King were on the left and right, and they seemed to have the Glass Saint surrounded. He did not expect the two of them to be so ruthless that they were really going to fight in the imperial mausoleum.
Saint Xihua and the Great Zhou Sacred King were both ranked above the Glass Saint on the Sage and Saint Ranking. If the two of them joined forces, the Glass Saint would definitely be at a disadvantage.
"Since when do you have the right to talk about what I do?" Saint Xihua glanced at Ye Futian and said coldly, "Although Emperor Xia said that saints are not allowed to attack those of lower planes, if someone takes the initiative to provoke a saint, then I think Saint Xia will understand."
Since they had already turned against each other, there was no need to hide anything. For example, since the Glass Saint had decided to enter the game, they were going to join forces to deal with her. They were extremely decisive!
