Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7640

Chapter 7555: Undercurrents

With the defection of the Nine-Colored Blood Demon God team, the situation underwent a radical change!

Li Tianming and his group were instantly under immense pressure!

At this moment, two Evolutionary Light-Year Gods from the Eternal Empire of Myriad Realms were observing the battle from the sidelines, ready to join at any moment. There were also three Thousand Illusion Sisters at the 12th-Order God Seed Realm, and the defected demon god team…

Aside from Wan Yao and others who couldn’t intervene, Li Tianming and Ji Xuanjian might have to simultaneously face such a group of geniuses!

Two against many!

In this extremely tense and perilous battlefield, countless people were watching, many had noticed what was happening!

Far away in the Heavenly Emperor Sect, disciples and imperial tutors watching Li Tianming through the images of the Myriad Emperor Palace all frowned deeply with worry.

Not long ago, they were cheering for Li Tianming’s one-against-five victory over five powerful demon gods, but now, after the celebration, their spirits had plummeted again!

“Does Tianming… still have a chance?”

In the most luxurious private room of the Myriad Emperors Palace, Li Chaoxi stared intently at the image, her beautiful eyes filled with worry.

Beside her, Li Yuhuan, though unsure herself, still placed her hands on Li Chaoxi’s relatively small hands, seemingly offering some comfort…

The same atmosphere permeated the other members of the Heavenly Emperors Sect. Amidst the countless figures densely packed on the Myriad Emperors Battlefield, an eerie silence reigned!

They all knew what such an opponent and such a situation meant for Li Tianming.

“Perhaps, this Myriad Emperors Battle is cruel. Even someone as strong as Li Zhanshen can only end in regret after many twists and turns!”

“What a pity! What a lament!”

“If he hadn’t fought alone, and we had many more top geniuses, we wouldn’t be in such a desperate situation…”

Countless members of the Heavenly Emperors Sect felt immense regret and sighed repeatedly.

However, in another corner of the vast outer universe, some people had the exact opposite mindset!

Within the Wusheng Qianhuan Sect, many cultivators, like Qianhuan Bingyu and others, whose eyes shone with dazzling starlight, smiled as they looked at the image.

“This team that appeared out of nowhere is so reckless, daring to covet our team’s treasures.”

“Not to mention that Senior Sister Bingyu and the other two are already incredibly powerful, if we really provoke those two to make a move, there aren’t many teams in the entire Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War that can withstand them. To think they can defeat them is a pipe dream!”

The disciples of the Wusheng Qianhuan Sect couldn’t help but sneer, lamenting Li Tianming’s overestimation of his abilities.

…

Meanwhile, in the Ten Thousand Sects Battle Hall.

Fengyue Wuguang and Fengyue Youwei’s gazes towards the Heavenly Emperor Sect and other sect powerhouses grew increasingly mocking.

“Trying to seize this golden secret palace? Too bad it’s already reserved by a genius from the Eternal Empire within the Thousand Illusions Sect.”

“As for that Li Tianming… he’s nothing but a reckless fool, thinking he can single-handedly conquer the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War. He’s delusional!”

Both men sneered inwardly, feeling immensely pleased to see Li Dixiao and the others so worried and tense.

Gui Jin and Gui Chen of the Nine-Colored Blood Sect were initially somewhat apprehensive upon seeing Qianhuan Lingyi, a prominent figure from the Thousand Illusions Sect.

However, after witnessing Gui Liuli’s subsequent decisions and choices, they breathed a sigh of relief.

“Fortunately, we have Liuli as our pillar of strength. As the team leader, her decisions are always just right and never disappoint…” Gui Jin said with lingering fear.

At this moment, Qianhuan Lingyi looked at the other party indifferently, without joy or sorrow, and said, “Those ghosts and gods, they are your people, right? Not bad, you do have some discernment. Helping those two won’t be a loss.”

“Senior, I dare not say I’m helping, it’s just atonement. After all, they also hindered your daughter before.” Gui Jin tried his best to smile, even his smile was wrinkled.

He dared not be negligent towards this important figure.

Qianhuan Lingyi shifted her gaze back to the image, not looking at the other party, and said to herself, “After all, they were coerced. It’s good that they know their mistakes and can correct them. We are not petty people. Of course, some people don’t recognize their place, and the children still need to teach them a lesson.”

Her words seemed to have a hidden meaning.

From beginning to end, the only ones who were truly enemies of the Wusheng Qianhuan Sect were Li Tianming and his group!

Li Dixiao could of course tell that the other party was already somewhat unhappy with the ‘Five Good Youths’ team, after all, it was a fact that Li Tianming and Ji Xuanjian were opposing them.

But now, they could do nothing from the sidelines.

On one hand, it seemed that the Heavenly Emperor Sect, the Myriad Manifestations Battle Sect, the Chaotic Dao Ruins, and the Myriad Stars Emperor Gate all faced the risk of elimination.

On the other hand, they felt helpless and troubled because they knew Li Tianming’s personality.

“Tianming will absolutely not admit defeat. In the end, we’ll probably have to fight a big battle to end this Myriad Sects Emperor War experience,” Li Dixiao said with a pale face and a slight sigh.

Huangfu Qi and the others were also very clear about the consequences of doing so; it would inevitably lead to unpleasantness with sects like the Thousand Illusions Sect of No Life.

Li Xuanyin, who had originally seemed to believe that Li Tianming could bring more benefits to the Li Clan’s Heavenly Emperor Sect, turned somewhat cold after this turn of events.

“Di Xiao, your son-in-law is too sharp and inflexible. Although his talent is amazing, he will bring us big trouble sooner or later.” Li Xuanyin looked at Li Di Xiao’s profile and said in a cold voice, “With such a personality that easily attracts enemies, perhaps we shouldn’t have let him participate in the second round in the first place. Although we gained some benefits for the Heavenly Emperor Sect before, offending so many forces is still detrimental to the sect’s development!”

“It’s too late to say more now. All we can do is wait.” Li Di Xiao’s face was a little pale, but he couldn’t deny what the other party said. He continued, “It’s not over yet. It’s too early to draw conclusions. Maybe he still has his own ideas and can resolve this conflict.”

“What ideas could he have? Any one of these geniuses could defeat the combined disciples of our major sects.” Li Xuanyin waved his hand and snorted coldly.

“Don’t say anything. He’s not feeling well right now either. We have no choice but to wait.” Li Zhaotang frowned and advised.

The apparent internal strife within the Li Clan Heavenly Emperor Sect filled the powerful figures of the Wusheng Thousand Illusions Sect, the Nine-Colored Blood Sect, the Illusion Star Cave, and the Myriad Wings Ancient Sect with schadenfreude and cold laughter.

…

Meanwhile, within the Myriad Sects Imperial Tower

, the towering and imposing Qianfeng Heavenly Emperor, wearing a magnificent crown and standing tall and upright, rose from his throne.

His face was fully revealed only under the starlight.

This man appeared quite young, with a face like cold jade, sword-like eyebrows that slanted upwards, and sharp eyes; handsome but not seductive.

Beneath his unassuming exterior lay a pair of eyes that shone brightly, an aura of imperial power that commanded respect, like an eternal emperor surveying the world. He wore a black imperial robe embroidered with nine dragons, signifying his supreme authority!

The person at the pinnacle of power in the entire Inner Frontier Third-Tier Star System, the ‘Qianfeng Eternal Empire,’ was none other than the Qianfeng Heavenly Emperor!

At this moment, his expression was indifferent as he walked out of the private room, arm in arm with the ‘Princess Ziling’ beside him…

their voices faded into the distance.

“Father, ‘they’ have arrived?”

“Yes.”

“Do we absolutely have to see them?”

“Of course, they are also from a Third-Tier Star System, no less powerful than us.”

“I really don’t know what the point of this diplomacy is. We might as well focus on looking at Xiaoyue’s image.”

“You’re still young, you’ll understand later.”

“I’m not young anymore! I can already manage state affairs and share the burden with Father!”

The girl seemed to be playfully pouting, displaying a rare, unexpected side of herself.
