In the sacred capital of Xianyang, within the Great Qin Heavenly Dynasty, the court was in session.
"Ying, Zhong Shan has disrupted the order of your Great Qin. Our dragon clan, the national beast of Great Qin, has been recruited by Zhong Shan to act as his protector. This is an insult to Great Qin, a blatant act of contempt!" Ao Sihai loudly declared in the court.
"Oh? And what do you want to do about it?" Ying asked indifferently.
Ying's expression showed no emotion, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
"This is a national disgrace. Great Zheng belittles Great Qin. We should root out the problem and crush their arrogance!" Ao Sihai demanded angrily.
"Is that so?" Ying asked, a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
"Absolutely!" Ao Sihai imdiately responded.
"Isn't the supre leader of the dragon clan you, Ao Sihai, and not Zhong Shan? Why can't you control the dragon clan?" Ying retorted.
"Because, because of a traitor, that..." Ao Sihai sensed sothing was wrong with Ying.
"Then it's your failure to manage the dragon clan. I suggest you first straighten out your dragon clan," Ying said coldly.
Ao Sihai looked at Ying, his eyes flashing with anger but having no outlet for his frustration. He turned and left with a sense of helplessness.
"Dismissed!" Ying announced indifferently.
Standing up, Ying flicked his sleeve and disappeared from the grand hall.
In the hall, Li Si was absent, and only one pri minister, Lü Buwei, was present. Lü Buwei glanced at the direction where Ao Sihai had left, a cold smile appearing on his face.
"Pri Minister Lü!" Bai Qi suddenly called out.
"Oh? General Bai?" Lü Buwei looked at Bai Qi with curiosity.
"Why is the Emperor so lenient in this matter? Even if Ao Sihai has not managed the dragon clan well, even if the dragon clan is very weak, the Emperor should not be so indulgent towards Great Zheng. According to his usual temper, the Emperor would never protect Great Zheng like this. Why?" Bai Qi asked with a frown.
"Hehe, firstly, this is neither a major issue nor a trivial one. The root cause lies with Ao Sihai. Secondly, Ao Sihai arrogantly presud his status, which displeased the Emperor. And the most important third reason, you will soon understand. Compared to the final reputation, the Emperor values the benefits more," Lü Buwei said, patting Bai Qi's shoulder.
Bai Qi frowned slightly, then nodded, "Thank you for the guidance, Pri Minister Lü!"
Ao Sihai, filled with frustration, flew out of the imperial palace, followed by a group of dragons.
"Supre, why do you look so unhappy?" a dragon clan mber asked with a frown.
"Return to the East Sea!" Ao Sihai's face was grim, not answering the dragon clan mber.
As the group of dragons was about to fly out of the sacred capital of Xianyang.
"Souls, return~~!"
Suddenly, a loud shout echoed across the sky of Great Qin, spreading throughout Xianyang.
"Boom~~~!"
With a terrifying explosion, lightning and thunder filled the sky, and an endless stream of air currents rushed towards a specific location in the city. Then, a surge of pure Yin, pitch-black energy shot up into the sky.
This powerful aura ascended and struck the cloud sea of Great Qin's fortunes, causing the cloud sea to tremble violently, the fortunes fluctuating wildly. The horrifying black energy enveloped the entire sky, forming a vast oppressive aura pressing down.
The oppression was so intense that even Ao Sihai, the supre of the dragon clan, felt a sudden, heart-pounding fear.
Surrounded by endless lightning, the strong pressure and lightning forced the dragons to the ground. Even Ao Sihai, with a face full of terror, was forced to land on the ground.
In Xianyang, the Sacred Capital of Great Qin
"What is going on? How can there be such a terrifying aura?" Ao Sihai wondered aloud.
The overwhelming aura enveloped the entire sacred capital of Xianyang for a whole hour before slowly dissipating and retracting into a building within the city. Once everything returned to normal, the dragons were drenched in sweat.
"Supre, what just happened?" a dragon clan mber asked in horror.
"Whose residence was that courtyard?" Ao Sihai asked, still shaken.
"I know, I've heard about it before," another dragon responded imdiately.
"Oh?"
"That's Guigu Mansion. It's the largest residence in Xianyang, second only to the imperial palace," the dragon explained.
"Guigu Mansion? Could it be the forr residence of the feng shui master Guiguzi?" another dragon pondered with a frown.
Ao Sihai's pupils constricted as he looked in that direction. "Guiguzi? The Guiguzi of Great Qin has awakened?"
"Supre? Who are you talking about? Who is Guiguzi?" the dragons questioned.
"Let's go back to the East Sea!" Ao Sihai commanded, not answering their questions, and swiftly ordered their departure.
In the Netherworld, at the Capital of the Great Zheng Heavenly Dynasty
On this day, six people arrived at the peak of a mountain outside the capital, Changjing. They were Tian Xiaozi, Tianlai, and four of Tianlai's subordinates, all immortals from the Grand Thousand World.
"Is this the place?" Tianlai asked Tian Xiaozi.
"Yes, this is the place. Zhong Shan is here. In the past, he used a fragnt of the Tian Order to command us, and he claid to be a disciple of the Tian family master in the Yang World. He must know where the Tian Order is!" Tian Xiaozi replied.
"Are you sure?"
"Absolutely. Why would I deceive you? Besides, with your wisdom, could I fool you?" Tian Xiaozi said quickly.
Tianlai stared at Tian Xiaozi, tilting his head slightly with suspicion. "Why do I feel like you are using to deal with Zhong Shan?"
"Why would I lie? Besides, didn't your third brother, Tian Tang, also confirm my words? Otherwise, he wouldn't have let you co with to find Zhong Shan!" Tian Xiaozi responded.
"But when we arrived here, we heard you lost to Zhong Shan. And where is Kunpeng? Didn't you have a divine beast Kunpeng?" Tianlai questioned, still wary.
"Kunpeng? Kunpeng flew away on its own, out of the small thousand-world, and into the Grand Thousand World!" Tian Xiaozi explained.
Tianlai stared at Tian Xiaozi for a mont before saying, "I'll trust you for now."
"Of course, I, Tian Xiaozi, never lie," Tian Xiaozi smiled.
Tianlai turned his attention to the vast aura of luck surrounding the area. "Four generals!" Tianlai called.
"At your service!" the four subordinates responded imdiately.
"Bring Zhong Shan out!" Tianlai ordered.
"To what extent?"
"Extent? Destroy Changjing, and Zhong Shan will naturally co out," Tianlai declared arrogantly.
"Yes!" the four generals replied.
A subtle smile appeared on Tian Xiaozi's lips.
The four generals flew off the mountain and ascended high into the sky. Suddenly, a massive amount of red energy surrounded them, and flas engulfed the four of them. Fire elental energy rapidly converged from all directions, growing larger and larger, transforming the four into giant suns in an instant.
In the Hall of Longevity, Zhong Shan, Gan Bao'er, Zhong Tian, and Zhong Zheng watched from their hidden vantage points. Zhong Shan remained calm, observing the events unfolding outside.
"Zhong Shan will soon show his true strength," Zhong Shan whispered to himself, a slight smile playing on his lips.
The firestorm created by the four generals illuminated the sky, casting an ominous glow over Changjing. The ti for confrontation was drawing near, and the stage was set for the ultimate clash of power and wits.
The terrifying heat caused the surrounding space to tremble, the aftershocks alone enough to create spatial ripples.
"Ha~~~!" The four "suns" suddenly let out a loud shout.
Then, the enormous "suns" rapidly moved towards Changjing, transforming into four massive fla dragons, surging towards the city. The four n were now visible, remaining in their original positions with a pushing stance.
As the fla dragons advanced, the space around them shook violently, and cracks appeared in their wake. The ten-thousand-zhang long fla dragons roared towards Changjing from four directions, as if intending to destroy the city with their imnse power.
"Boom~~~!" The thunderous roar of the impact wasn't as fast as the fla dragons themselves.
In an instant, the fla dragons reached the outskirts of Changjing. Suddenly, starlight shone from the sky, and a vast amount of green light descended, forming a gigantic transparent green wall just in front of the dragons.
"Boom~~~!" The colossal collision sound echoed as the enormous fla dragons shattered into countless pieces, rebounding and exploding in all directions, tearing through space and creating black holes. The surrounding area outside Changjing was engulfed in flas, and the violent shockwaves pulverized many nearby mountains into dust.
The massive transparent wall trembled violently at the mont of impact, nearly shattering under the strain.
Seeing this great formation, Tianlai's pupils contracted. Tian Xiaozi seed unsurprised, as if he had anticipated it.
The four generals looked towards Tianlai, awaiting his decision.
Inside the palace of Changjing, the shadow body of Zhong Shan was in the middle of a court session. The mont the four "suns" appeared, Zhong Shan noticed them, and his pupils contracted as he led his ministers out of the Immortal Hall.
The "Great Luo Zhou Heavenly Star Formation" had been activated by Nangong Sheng, the Director of the Heavenly Strategy Bureau.
As Zhong Shan exited the Immortal Hall, Nangong Sheng joined him, both looking towards the distant outskirts of Changjing.
When the flas outside died down and the space stabilized, the six figures on the mountain peak were revealed.
Tianlai gazed up at the suddenly appearing stars.
"Impressive formation, connecting the star power of the Grand Thousand World from this small thousand-world. The Great Zheng Heavenly Dynasty? Quite capable indeed!" Tianlai remarked with a hint of admiration.
"Master of the Tian family, what is your intention? Have you forgotten the lesson you learned last ti? Was the pain not enough?" Zhong Shan's cold shout echoed.
Despite the great distance, Zhong Shan's voice reached the peak of the distant mountain. In Changjing, Zhong Shan had the ability to project his voice far and wide.
Hearing Zhong Shan's question, a flash of hatred appeared in Tian Xiaozi's eyes, but he did not respond.
"That man is Zhong Shan!" Tian Xiaozi told Tianlai.
"Oh?" Tianlai looked towards Zhong Shan in the distance.
The two locked eyes, a cold glint flashing in both of their gazes.
