Chapter 431: The Winds and Clouds of Cangxuan

Chapter 431: Chapter 432: The Winds and Clouds of Cangxuan

The leader of the men in black quickly recovered and sneered, “So what if you’re a Martial Emperor? Heh, you’re still going to die.”

Zhuge Su’s brow furrowed slightly.

The leader of the men in black carefully took a piece of Yellow Silk from his robes.

The Yellow Silk was bordered with gold, giving it an extraordinary appearance.

The leader said, “Do you know what this is? A Holy Edict from the great King of Reincarnation.”

Zhuge Su curled his lip in disdain.

A Holy Edict?

He thought, ‘It’s just a piece of scrap cloth. What’s so special about it?’

WHOOSH!

The moment the Holy Edict was unfurled, an unimaginably powerful pressure surged forth, causing Zhuge Su to falter for a moment.

“Holy Might?”

Zhuge Su exclaimed in shock.

The leader of the men in black said proudly, “The great King of Reincarnation long predicted you wouldn’t submit, so he infused this Holy Edict with his Holy Might.”

Originally, this Holy Might was meant to suppress Su Mo.

Now, he planned to use it on Zhuge Su.

To suppress Zhuge Su.

The leader held the Holy Edict with both hands and said, “You floor-sweeper, if you know what’s good for you, kneel and receive this edict. The Holy Might of the great King of Reincarnation is not something a mere mortal like you can withstand.”

All are ants beneath a Saint.

Even a Martial Emperor is nothing but trash under the pressure of a Saint-level Powerhouse.

However, Zhuge Su showed no intention of kneeling.

“Heh, how impressive.”

Zhuge Su mocked.

The leader’s eyes narrowed. “You won’t kneel?” he said coldly. “Fine. I’ll use the great King of Reincarnation’s Holy Might to strike you dead on the spot.”

“Suppress!”

With a soft cry from the leader, the Holy Might from the edict coalesced into the character for “Suppress” and pressed down with overwhelming force.

In an instant, Zhuge Su felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

The immense Holy Might nearly crushed every bone in his body.

“True Dragon Undying Technique!”

Zhuge Su roared.

SHIMMER!

Rays of golden light radiated from Zhuge Su’s body, forming a suit of gleaming Golden Armor that covered him completely.

Instantly, the pressure on Zhuge Su lessened considerably.

Hm?

A flicker of astonishment crossed the leader’s eyes.

‘What’s going on?’

‘The King of Reincarnation’s Holy Might can’t even suppress this old man.’

The leader asked in disbelief, “You… How did you do that?”

“How did I do it?”

Zhuge Su said proudly, “See this Golden Armor on me? This is the True Dragon Undying Technique, a Martial Skill passed down to me by Elder Su.”

“What?”

The leader exclaimed in shock.

‘The Martial Skill Su Mo gave Zhuge Su is even stronger than the King of Reincarnation’s Holy Might?’

‘How is that possible?’

Zhuge Su said with contempt, “If the King of Reincarnation came in person, I might be a little wary. But if you think you can make me kneel and submit with a scrap of cloth, you can fucking dream on. True Dragon Supreme Swordsmanship!”

SWISH!

With a single strike of the sword, the leader’s head rolled to the ground.

He didn’t even have time to scream.

Zhuge Su scoffed, “A bunch of trash. You don’t have the skill, so why act so tough? You want me to kneel and receive an edict? Receive my ass!”

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

Zhuge Su cut down the remaining men in black.

Just then, Xiao Zhan arrived in a hurry with his men.

“What happened?”

Xiao Zhan asked.

Zhuge Su sheathed his longsword. “Nothing major. That bastard, the King of Reincarnation, advanced to the Saint Level and sent some people to our Qingyang City to show off. I killed them all.”

“The King of Reincarnation advanced to the Saint Level?”

Xiao Zhan said in surprise.

Zhuge Su said flatly, “So what if he’s Saint Level? It’s nothing to be afraid of. As long as we stay in Qingyang City and don’t go out, the King of Reincarnation can’t kill us. Oh right, this is his Holy Edict.”

“Let me see!”

The Drunken Sword Spirit snatched the Holy Edict first and studied it. “It really does have the King of Reincarnation’s Holy Might on it. That guy really did advance to the Saint Level.”

Huang Xu asked, “Should we notify Elder Su?”

Zhuge Su waved his hand. “No need. Elder Su could kill the King of Reincarnation with a single slap. At worst, he’ll still make it back alive.”

“Are you saying the King of Reincarnation will run into Xiaomo?”

Xiao Zhan asked.

Zhuge Su nodded. “Yes. That guy, the King of Reincarnation, also went to Meteor City. He should be meeting Elder Su very soon.”

Hearing this, everyone grew expectant.

Whether they could kill the King of Reincarnation and eliminate this threat was all up to Su Mo now.

“Patriarch Xiao, could you entrust this Holy Edict to me for safekeeping?”

the Drunken Sword Spirit asked.

Xiao Zhan was puzzled. “What do you want this for?”

The Drunken Sword Spirit replied, “I want to comprehend the Saint Level pressure on it and see if I can break through to the Saint Level. That way, I can help the Master fight.”

“Break through to the Saint Level?”

Xiao Zhan looked at the Drunken Sword Spirit in surprise.

The Drunken Sword Spirit said, “Haven’t you noticed? I’m already at Martial Emperor Great Perfection. I’m only a step away from the Saint Level.”

“Alright, then you can keep it.”

Xiao Zhan agreed.

Among their group, the Drunken Sword Spirit was the most likely to break through to the Saint Level, so it was most appropriate for it to keep the King of Reincarnation’s Holy Edict.

When that time comes, a Saint will emerge in their Qingyang City, making it a true Sacred Land.

“Thank you, Patriarch!”

The Drunken Sword Spirit held the Holy Edict and sighed emotionally, “Tsk, tsk. The King of Reincarnation is truly kind, delivering a Saint Level opportunity right to my doorstep.”

Everyone: “…”

Meanwhile, all the major top-tier families in the Cangxuan Realm received the King of Reincarnation’s Holy Edict.

“The King of Reincarnation has become a Saint?”

“It seems our Cangxuan Realm has another Saint-level existence.”

“With the Descent approaching, the more Saint-level existences the better. It’s just a shame the King of Reincarnation is a Yama of Yama Hall. Not only will he not help us, but he’ll also take this opportunity to target us.”

“The heavens are unfair! Letting a bastard like the King of Reincarnation advance to the Saint Level is so damn infuriating.”

Just as the major families were in a state of panic, a man in black descended upon the Baili Race.

“Baili Canon, receive the edict!”

the man in black announced.

Baili Canon’s brow furrowed in confusion. “Receive an edict? Whose edict?”

“The edict of the great King of Reincarnation, of course,”

the man in black said coldly.

Baili Canon’s expression changed dramatically. “What? The King of Reincarnation has become a Saint?”

“Insolent!”

the man in black rebuked. “You have some nerve, Baili Canon! How dare you speak the name of the great King of Reincarnation without the proper honorifics? Are you seeking death?”

“Suppress!”

The man in black activated the Holy Might within the edict, bringing it down forcefully.

THUD!

Baili Canon was forced directly to his knees.

The man in black said coldly, “The great King of Reincarnation commands you to proceed to Meteor City and await his arrangements. Those who disobey will be killed without mercy.”

“Yes, yes, yes!”

Baili Canon kowtowed repeatedly.

The man in black put away the Holy Edict and gave a cold warning, “Baili Canon, since you’ve received the edict, you must go to Meteor City. If you dare to feign compliance while secretly defying orders, you can wait for your entire race to be exterminated. At that time, not only will you die, but every last man, woman, and child of your Baili Race will die with you.”

With that, the man in black left, leaving a trembling Baili Canon behind.

Baili Canon said in a low voice, “The King of Reincarnation wants us to go to Meteor City. It seems he’s preparing to make a move against the Meteor Sacred Land and throw the Cangxuan Realm into turmoil.”

“So, are we going?”

Baili Tong asked.

Baili Canon said, “Of course we’re going.”

Baili Tong hesitated. “But that would be helping a tyrant.”
