Chapter 1132 - Turbulence
Thousandhonor Marquis’ eyes twitched, wishing he could choke Qi Zhen. Even if this was true, there was no need to really say it.
How come he didn’t know he was such a straightforward person before? Or had he slept for too long this time, so his personality had become completely twisted?
Qin Yu bitterly smiled..as he thought, it was like this. But it was still better than no chance of survival. Otherwise, no matter how confident Qi Zhen seemed, he really would hesitate.
“Great! Then I agree to this matter. What should I do now?”
Qi Zhen clapped his hands and said, “I knew you had the courage. Then it’s settled!” He slapped Qin Yu’s shoulder and raised an eyebrow at Thousandhonor Marquis, “And you? This is a crucial moment so don’t even think of backing out. You have a previous criminal record!”
Thousandhonor Marquis’ face darkened and he humphed. “There’s no need for you to worry. Just figure out how you want to die!”
These words were rude, but Qi Zhen wasn’t angered at all. Rather, he nodded his head in contemplation. “I have to think over it and make sure it’s flawless. Otherwise if too great of a commotion is stirred up, it will be easy to be discovered.”
He turned and looked at Qin Yu, rubbing his chin, “Boy, what suggestions do you have? A situation where I can be killed and it won’t be troublesome.”
This was the first time Qin Yu had been asked such a question. Although he had no idea what medicine these two old fellows were selling, he did have a plan.
Thinking of it, Qin Yu said, “First you kill Cloud Mist..of course, I am only speaking of the kind where everyone believes that you killed her. And you need a good motive for that. Then, I will kill you out of revenge. Even if others learn of this, it would be the Ancient King’s Lineage who killed the successor of the Old King’s Lineage first. They won’t have anything they can say about it.”
“Great idea!” Qi Zhen raised a thumb in praise. “You are smart, but this plan isn’t something that you could have come up with at a moment’s notice. It seems that the Old King’s Lineage already had a plan in store.”
Qin Yu forced a smile. When he and Cloud Boundless came up with this plan, he never thought things would turn out like this.
Thousandhonor Marquis slowly said, “This is not difficult. It can be done with a little manipulation.”
The three carefully discussed a bit more. Then, Qi Zhen waved his hand. Qin Yu didn’t feel anything, but he vanished from sight.
In the next moment, Qin Yu appeared in the camp of the Old King’s Lineage. He looked around and at the camp of Thousandhonor Marquis not too far away, and he sighed gently.
Before, it was one thing when Qi Zhen personally brought him back and forth. Now he only waved a hand to send him away and he had no idea what happened.
This was considered a ‘minor’ method? Then what terrifying minor methods did the Old Turtle at the Nightmare Ancestral Land have?
Before, he had only been thinking of entering the Nightmare Ancestral Land..but now he realized that only after entering would the true horror begin!
But in any case, he had to survive..the bitterness and helplessness in Qin Yu’s eyes faded away until there was nothing left but resolve. He had rushed through numerous deadly situations in coming this far. He could make it out this time too.
If he really fell into desperate straits, at worst he could..put up a shield and fight back.
However, he had no idea if he could smoothly summon the Demon Dragon Elder within the Nightmare Ancestral Land..and even if he successfully summoned him, what if that old dragon turned around and chewed his head off..!
..
The clouds of war hovered over the Nightmare Clan and Nightmare Beast Territory. It grew increasingly dark and gloomy, and could erupt at any moment. But at this time, another major event occurred.
The successor to the Old King’s Lineage, Cloud Billow, had undergone another awakening of his bloodline after absorbing a nightmare beast crystal nucleus, transforming into the royal king bloodline.
News instantly spread out, shocking all Nightmare Clansmen in the Nightmare Beast Territory. For a time, the camp of the Old King’s Lineage was full of noise and bustle and numerous guests came to visit.
Although Cloud Boundless vigorously denied this matter and didn’t acknowledge it at all, he couldn’t prevent others from sensing it. After Cloud Billow’s bloodline breakthrough, he was unable to restrain his strength, causing his aura to leak out.
This matter was soon confirmed..Cloud Billow had fully awakened the royal bloodline!
In the test of the struggle for the throne, Cloud Billow had awakened the royal bloodline. This was undoubtedly a great bomb for all parties involved.
This was especially true for the Ancient King’s Lineage who believed that the new King’s throne was already theirs. They found this even more difficult to accept.
In the camp of the Ancient King’s Lineage, Seven Wounds Clan Elder paced back and forth, his face dark and gloomy. A cold chill flashed in his eyes.
How hateful!
He had originally prepared plans to announce that Qi Zhen had fully awakened the royal bloodline. This would have guaranteed that the Ancient King’s Lineage would obtain even more benefits in the war against the Nightmare Beast Territory.
But who could have imagined that before he had a chance to do anything, Cloud Billow would also awaken the royal bloodline. The commotion was so great that it completely stole the limelight from the Ancient King’s Lineage.
Stealing the limelight wasn’t much, but Cloud Billow had actually awakened the royal bloodline. He could not endure this.
The throne must belong to the Ancient King’s Lineage..if they didn’t, the series of consequences that would occur would completely destroy them.
He took a deep breath and said, “Qi Zhen, you have already awakened the royal bloodline. Can you sense Cloud Billow’s aura?”
He wanted to confirm once more.historical
Qi Zhen nodded. He said, “Yes, I can feel Cloud Billow’s aura. He has fully awakened the royal bloodline.” He swept his eyes around. Those here were absolute confidantes of the Ancient King’s Lineage. “Cloud Billow will be my greatest threat in capturing the throne..because in my senses, his bloodline gives me a suppressive feeling..so I hope that you may all take action to kill him!”
The faces of everyone in the camp changed.
The successor of the Old King’s Lineage might have a precious status, but killing him was just killing him. In the end, he was merely a junior that hadn’t yet grown up.
But now, Cloud Billow had awakened the royal bloodline..in other words, he had the qualifications to ascend the throne of the Nightmare King.
Killing such a Cloud Billow would produce a storm ten times, a hundred times greater. It would shake the very foundation of the Nightmare Clan.
This was not a minor matter!
Moreover, Cloud Boundless was here. He might have patiently endured it before, but if Cloud Billow was really killed off now..they feared that old thing would go crazy. Who knew how many people would die together with him?
That’s right, after killing Cloud Billow, Cloud Boundless also had to die. Only after eliminating him could they fully erase the threat of the Old King’s Lineage.
In the silence, Seven Wounds Clan Elder looked up. His sharp eyes landed on the silent Thousandhonor Marquis.
“Thousandhonor Marquis, do you think we should do this?”
Thousandhonor Marquis looked back and then at Qi Zhen. He furrowed his eyebrows and let out a breath, “Qi Zhen has already awakened the royal bloodline so there is no reason for us to back down..once Cloud Billow dies, everything will be settled!”
After a pause he continued, “As for Cloud Boundless, if I join together with Seven Wounds Clan Elder it will be enough to suppress him. And as for the turbulence that will follow..once Cloud Billow dies, we can announce that Qi Zhen has awakened the royal bloodline. This will resolve all issues.”
Seven Wounds Clan Elder shouted, “Good!”
He smiled in satisfaction. Thousandhonor Marquis might be independent and erratic, but his interests were closely tied with the Ancient King’s Lineage.
At important times, he still knew what decisions to make.
With the support of Thousandhonor Marquis, the Ancient King’s Lineage could move without scruples in the Nightmare Beast Territory..Cloud Boundless, your time of death is near!
..
The war against the Nightmare Beast Territory finally roared to life!
Raging flames of war blazed into existence, releasing their own violence and destruction.
Countless nightmare beasts howled in sorrow as they were struck down, turned into crystal nucleuses that were taken away by the Nightmare Clan as spoils of war.
The nightmare beast kings desperately resisted but they were still pressed into the ground and beaten.
From the start, the massive disparity in strength between both sides led to a doomed result.
Of course, when the Nightmare Beast Territory faced off against the invasion, they weren’t lacking all power to resist. For example, the Giant Alligator King and Golden Eagle King were able to cause damage to the Nightmare Clan.
These two top class nightmare beast kings had come to some kind of unknown agreement. They laid down their battle to join forces against their common enemy.
Thousandhonor Marquis moved according to the circumstances. He enlisted powerhouses from all sides to encircle and kill the two top class beast kings. Cloud Boundless and Seven Wound Clan Elder, as well as countless powerhouses, were included in the name list.
During the siege against the two top level beast kings, the skirmishes occurring on other battlefields came to a temporary pause. The forces were recalled in order to avoid a frantic counterattack that would lead to more casualties.
The team of powerhouses that were to kill the Giant Alligator King and Golden Eagle King set off. If everything went as planned, the death of the two top class beast kings would lead to the end of this war.
But before then, there was a disturbance that was brewing. And it would eventually erupt..because, someone had to die.
Although no one knew what the conflict was, it was produced because of the friction between the Ancient King’s Lineage and the Old King’s Lineage. Their long hatred exploded when they met, leading to a series of uncontrollable matters.
It just so happened that at this moment, there was a raid from nightmare beast kings on the camp. To ensure the safety of the camp, Thousandhonor Marquis led powerhouses to fight back.
Without sufficient suppressive pressure in the camp, the situation intensified. Cloud Billow was eventually killed, slayed in full view of the public by Qi Zhen.
Cloud Billow, who had awakened the royal bloodline and was considered by countless people to inevitably be the new Nightmare King, was killed off like that.
Everyone who saw this felt a chill shoot up their backs, making them feel as if they had fallen into an icy lake.
They could not figure out how things had come to this point. But even an idiot could tell that the Old King’s Lineage would never let go of Cloud Billow’s death. This would inevitably detonate into tumultuous chaos that would sweep over the entire Nightmare Clan.
But things didn’t proceed as everyone thought. This was because Qi Zhen, who had just killed Cloud Billow, was immediately killed by someone else.
And the one who killed him was someone from the Old King’s Lineage, named Qin Yu.
This time it was the turn of the Ancient King’s Lineage to go insane. They had smoothly killed Cloud Billow, but now Qi Zhen had been slain too?
Was this a joke? If Qi Zhen died, would the rest of them have a good life?
If it weren’t for Thousandhonor Marquis and the others repelling the attack of the nightmare beast kings and hurrying back to the camp in time, a war might have erupted between the Ancient King’s Lineage and the Old King’s Lineage.
Thousandhonor Marquis forcibly interfered, finally suppressing the matter. But everyone knew that things wouldn’t end so easily now that Cloud Billow and Qi Zhen had both died.
Undercurrents shook the Nightmare Clan. This wasn’t because of the inevitable collision that would occur between the Ancient King’s Lineage and Old King’s Lineage, but because with the deaths of Cloud Billow and Qi Zhen, the struggle for the new King’s throne had become chaotic once more.
Originally, no one had hopes. But now..there seemed to be a chance..in that case, should they try and struggle a bit?
As everyone’s hearts were unstable, Qin Yu, surrounded by guards from the Old King’s Lineage, was the first to leave the Nightmare Beast Territory. This was to avoid any attacks from the Ancient King’s Lineage.
As the troop left, a strange female Demon Commander joined their ranks. Although she appeared abruptly, she didn’t attract any attention at all. Along with Qin Yu, they both vanished into the transmission array.
