Emperor’s Domination - Chapter 2750

Chapter 2750

It has been a while since Ziqing got here and the people from Mountguard were still nowhere to be found .

The spectators kept staring at the entrance in anticipation . Of course, they weren’t excited to see the “geniuses” of Mountguard, only the Virtuous Crown .

“They’re putting up quite a show, want to be fashionably late or something . ” A few lost their patience and complained .

“Hmph, I don’t think it’s like that . They probably escaped back to Mountguard, aware of their inferiority compared to Miss Zhou . The so-called battle is nothing but a delaying tactic . ”

“A monk can hide but not his temple . ” Ziqing sneered .

Some listeners shuddered . Everyone felt that by escaping back to their sect, these disciples only gave Central Sacred Ground more of an excuse to mobilize against Mountguard .

At that point, Central Sacred Ground would just say that they have broken a promise and send an army there with the perfect justification . The crown would pretty much be theirs by then .

That’s why everyone realized that Mountguard’s action didn’t matter . Both fighting and fleeing resulted in the same thing - defeat .

“Well, I think we can be sure that those disciples want to tuck their head in their shell like cowardly turtles then . ” One person gloated after seeing how high the sun was in the sky .

“Who says we’re fleeing?” A calm voice came about .

“They’re here! Finally!” Someone immediately recognized School Master Chen Weizheng and shouted .

Everyone looked over and saw a total of nine people walking in . Among them was a disabled person in a wheelchair .

The spectators exchanged glances . This group looked quite weak . It seemed that the rumors about the decline of Mountguard weren’t exaggerated .

They couldn’t be blamed for looking down on Mountguard . They could see Weizheng’s power level clearly, only barely stepping into the True God realm .

A True God was nothing in the grand scheme of things . Many great powers had numerous True Gods among the previous generation .

As for the seven young ones, they were just average at best and couldn’t be considered exceptional . This type of disciples could be found anywhere in the system .

They then shifted their sight over to Zhou Ziqing . She didn’t belong to the top tier of new disciples but was still considered excellent .

Though it was seven on one, Zi Qing was two full realms higher than them . This wasn’t something that could be made up with a numerical advantage .

As for Li Qiye, people only gave him a quick glance since they didn’t give a damn about someone looking like that .

They became clear that Mountguard was really done for since Weizheng was their strongest expert . Central Sacred Ground was immensely more powerful .

“Mountguard is just a third-rate sect now . ” One expert looked down on them .

Mountguard used to be an extremely prestigious sect . Even though it wasn’t in control of the system, people still listened to orders from it . Alas, this was no longer the case .

“Is that the Virtuous Crown?” Eyes focused on the crown on top of Jiahui’s head . They found it to be quite normal looking so skepticism arose .

“It is, looks exactly as described in the legends . ” An ancestor took a careful look and confirmed .

These ancestors were very tempted right now but they didn’t dare to take the food from the lion’s jaws .

“Time to start this, you all deserve death for making me wait so long!” Zhou Ziqing arrogantly stared at the group before uttering .

The seven stood behind Li Qiye with great composure while waiting for his order . They seemed to be more mature than before .

The training in deep space truly benefited them, allowing them to be unflustered before their enemy .

“I will have both your heads and the crown today!” Ziqing revealed a murderous expression . Alas, her eyes narrowed while looking at Li Qiye . She then reminded herself that she had her own masters waiting nearby .

She didn’t hide her greed while staring at the crown at all . Taking it out on these youth was also her chance to payback the humiliation suffered earlier to the hand of Li Qiye .

Most importantly, Eight Trigrams Kingdom wanted the crown . Failure stemming from mistakes was unacceptable .

This was going to determine her future . Success meant soaring into prosperity . She would surely be rewarded and become a concubine to the crown prince from Eight Trigrams . At that point, she could call for rains and winds on a whim .

That’s why she was so determined right now to get the crown . No one would be able to stop her .

“Go now, don’t return without her head for doing so is insulting me . ” Li Qiye said without opening his eyes, not caring about the spectators present .

“Yes, Ancestor . ” The group respectfully bowed .

“Ancestor? Since when does Mountguard have such a young ancestor?” Their address confused many people .

Nevertheless, they quickly dismissed it since this ancestor probably wasn’t that powerful . He would only be an Ascender at best, not a big deal . Only Eternals were relevant in the system .

“Hmph!” Zhou Ziqing snorted after hearing the comment, emboldened by the presence of mighty masters from her own sect .

“No one from Mountguard will leave this place alive! This is the fate of those who oppose our Central Sacred Ground!” She pompously declared .

These words were meant for Li Qiye . She wanted him to die along with Weizheng . Next, her sect would also destroy Mountguard .

The connection between Mountguard and the Virtuous Crown was deeply rooted in history . They needed to destroy Mountguard as well in order to establish a sage with the crown . No one would question their eligibility then .

Unfortunately, Li Qiye ignored her declaration of war .

“Get ready, don’t underestimate your enemy . Go all out . ” Weizheng told the group .

He wasn’t as confident in the seven compared to Li Qiye . He didn’t think they could kill Zhou Ziqing just by working together .

The group acknowledged the command and walked in a line onto the stage .

“Since this is a battle to the death at Reincarnation Mountain, I hope I’m not out of line to recommend myself as the referee for both sides . ” An old man stepped up and loudly declared .

He had a heavy sword on his back, brimming with sword energy . The guy was obviously a powerful Ascender .

“Pinnacle Sword Saint from Pinnacle Kingdom . ” Some recognized him right away .

“I have no objection . ” Ziqing agreed .

“We also have no objection . ” Weizheng hesitated for a bit before agreeing . He had heard about this sword saint before but didn’t quite trust him . Alas, he didn’t have a better candidate here right now to be the referee .
