Chapter 1210: 1210
Zhang Ruochen didn’t reject the position of the Hierarch . He agreed without complaint .
The Blood God Sect was an ancient sect with a long and rich heritage . If he could become Hierarch, he would receive cultivation resources that the average Saint would never get .
For example, divine blood .
There was a deity’s corpse in the Blood God Sect . According to legends, it was the corpse of the Blood God, the founder of the sect .
A deity’s corpse was like a giant treasure chest . It contained an immense amount of divine blood .
Other than that, each part of the god’s corpse was a treasure . The cloth that it was wrapped in, a piece of bone, a strand of hair… They were all treasures that Saints vied for .
Of course, Zhang Ruochen cared the most about the blood .
If I can receive a large amount of divine blood, I’ll be able to create more Blood Repression Runes .
The chaos in the upper level of the Blood God Sect had ended . Practically all of the infiltrators and humans who worked for the Immortal Vampires had been killed .
Of course, a large number of Saints had died as well . The Blood God Sect was greatly affected . Minor unrest in the middle and lower levels continued . It would take more time for everything to settle completely .
Elder Yuan Zhou suggested inviting Saints from all over the world for a coronation ceremony .
Zhang Ruochen rejected this . He thought that the Blood God Sect should continue sealing itself off and reorganize the inside, working to raise its abilities . They could hold the ceremony after they’d settled down and become stronger .
…
…
News of the battle at the Black Market’s headquarters spread . Not only did it shock Tiantai State, cultivators throughout the entire Kunlun’s Field were in uproar .
The imperial court and Black Market had worked together to kill more than 20 Saints of the Huangtian Tribe . This even included Sir Mu Qian, the golden-robed elder of the Immortal Pavilion, and the Empress of the Huangtian Tribe .
There were rumors that Time and Space Descendant Zhang Ruochen had participated in the battle, using the Clear Sky Bow and Shining Sun Arrow to kill the Huangtian Empress .
All forces of the Tiantai State went on alert . They were afraid that this unrest would affect them .
“More than 20 Saints died in a row . Even the Huangtian Tribe won’t be able to take this . More than half of their infiltrators in the central region should be gone now . ”
The Huangtian Tribe’s main plan in the central region was related to the Blood God Sect . They wanted to use the sect as their base to destroy Tiantai State .
Now, their force in the Blood God Sect was completely taken out . They couldn’t cause any unrest in the central region anymore .
Many cultivators were analyzing the current situation . This included the Saint Lady of the distant Central Emperor City, the Ministry of War, Martial Market Bank, Black Market, Sacred Crypt Central, and Moon-Worship Demonic Sect .
They all tried to predict the upcoming changes to plan ahead .
“After taking out the infiltrators of Huangtian Tribe, Zhang Ruochen’s crisis should be averted, right?”
The Saint Lady stood beside the Heaven and Earth Chessboard . Seeing the various pieces disappear from the chessboard, a mesmerizing smile appeared in her pretty eyes .
Each Saint in the Kunlun’s Field was a chess piece on the board . When one died, a piece would disappear as well .
Boom!
An explosion came from the place that represented the Blood God Sect on the chessboard .
“What happened? Is the unrest in the Blood God Sect still not over?”
The Saint Lady’s eyes hardened . Activating her Spiritual Power, she immersed herself in the Heaven and Earth Chessboard to check which Saint had died .
Boom, boom .
Another portion of the chessboard exploded . At least 20 more Saints died .
The drastic changes of the board shocked the Saints of the Confucius Way . They all hurried over to the Lianzhu Mansion to ask the Saint Lady what had happened .
The Saint Lady didn’t understand either . According to the information she’d received, the inner conflicts of the Blood God Sect should have ended already . How could such an intense battle erupt again?
With so many Saints dying, one could only imagine how bloody the battle was .
“The Art Saint is in the Blood God Sect . He should be able to stop all chaos . ”
“I don’t think so . Old Chu is very talented and can sweep the Saint Realm . However, the chessboard shows that a Saint King has been born . A Saint King is definitely not a small matter!”
“If the Saint King is our friend, then the chaos should settle . If it is foe, then the problems in the Blood God Sect are only the beginning . The rest of the Tiantai State will soon enter war and unrest . ”
…
The Heaven and Earth Chessboard could only show the general situation . No one present knew what exactly had happened in the Blood God Sect . They could only wait and hope news would come quickly .
The Saint Lady was very nervous too . She bit her red lips and even stopped breathing .
She was worried for the Blood God Sect and Chu Siyuan . Of course, she was also worried for Zhang Ruochen . After all, Zhang Ruochen was in the center of the vortex . Any mishap would cause him to be shattered .
Whoosh!
A communication rune flew across the sky into the Lianzhu Mansion .
The Saint Lady’s eyes flashed . With a sweep of her sleeves, she formed a whirlpool of Qi . The communication rune flew into her hands . She started reading the content .
The various Confucians crowded around her . They guessed that the content must be news from the Blood God Sect .
The Saint Lady finished reading the rune . Her clear eyes blinked and she seemed to be much more relaxed . Smiling, she said, “It’s a message from Yue Shuzi, administrator of Tiantai State . The Blood God Sect indeed had another large unrest, but it’s settled already . ”
Then the Saint Lady passed the communication rune to the others . Seeing the content, they all had thoughtful expressions .
“The horribly powerful Saint King is actually the Hierarch Madame, Qiu Yichi . How could she be working for the Immortal Vampires?”
“It has only been a few centuries, but Qiu Yichi has developed so many Saints and even secretly controlled the Blue Dragon Void World . Her methods aren’t the average ones . We’ve actually overlooked her in the past . ”
The Saint Lady found it incredible too . “Qiu Yichi doesn’t belong to any of the ten major tribes and hasn’t interacted with the Immortal Pavilion . Who is she working for?”
The Saint Lady controlled Kunlun’s Field biggest network of information . Nothing could be hidden from her . If Qiu Yichi really interacted with the Immortal Vampires, there would be small clues no matter how hidden it was .
Sir Mei, leader of the Qin Sect, stood beside the Heaven and Earth Chessboard . He didn’t speak and just stared at the area representing the Blood God Sect . Then he pointed somewhere on the board .
“Look at what this place is . ”
The Saint Lady and other Confucians all looked over at where he was pointing at .
“The Bottomless Abyss,” a Confucian said .
“Sect Leader, what do you mean?” someone asked, confused .
The Saint Lady’s eyes shone with terrifying light . Shocked, she said, “Sir Mei, do you think that Qiu Yichi is working for the Immortal Vampires because of the Bottomless Abyss?”
Sir Mei was solemn . He nodded and said, “When you went to the Shangguan Clan, Saint King Que gave you a piece of paper, pointing you to the Bottomless Abyss, correct?”
“Correct, but that paper might not have been written by him personally . It might have been a trap set by the Immortal Vampires . ”
“At first, I thought so too,” Sir Mei said . “But Qiu Yichi’s appearance changed my mind . Perhaps, Saint King Que had really written the note . He might have pointed you to the Bottomless Abyss to tell you something else . The Bottomless Abyss might hide a shocking secret . ”
“If the Bottomless Abyss really has a shocking secret,” the Saint Lady said, “why didn’t Saint King Que tell me directly?”
“What if he didn’t dare to?” Sir Mei asked .
One Confucian didn’t believe this . “Saint King Que reached the Saint King Realm 800 years ago . His cultivation is even more advanced now . What force in the world can silence him, other than the Empress?”
“For 800 years,” Sir Mei said, “Saint King Que has been deeply isolated . He rarely ever shows himself in public . In the last century, he’s completely disappeared . It’s like he’s dead . Isn’t his behavior hiding something? Maybe there really is a force stronger than the Empress suppressing him so that he doesn’t even dare to speak . ”
“Stronger than the Empress?”
None of the present Confucians could keep calm . Their minds were greatly affected . Sir Mei had made it so obvious . It wasn’t that they were stupid . They’d already guessed it, but they didn’t dare say it out loud .
“Sir Mei thinks that the Blood Empress didn’t die 800 years ago?” the Saint Lady asked timidly . “She’s in the Bottomless Abyss? Qiu Chiyi is working for the Blood Empress?”
Another Confucian instantly refuted that . “Back then, the Blood Empress was already stronger than the nine emperors . She was basically undefeatable . If she really is still alive, she would’ve taken over the world . Why would she hide in the Bottomless Abyss?”
“Yes, the Blood Empress was a royal figure that shined with dazzling light . She almost wiped out the human race back then . If she’s really still alive, she couldn’t bear to stay hidden . ”
The group wasn’t willing to believe this guess . If the Blood Empress was still alive, the human race wouldn’t be able to stop her, with the Empress missing .
“It’s only a guess . Don’t be nervous . ” Sir Mei smiled and then continued, “The most important thing to do now is to ask that figure to capture Qiu Chiyi . As long as she’s captured, we’ll naturally find out the truth . Who is the most suitable?”
“Qiu Chiyi had just recently entered the Saint King Realm,” the Saint Lady said . “We should be able to capture her if we can ask Heavenly King Lingxiao . ”
