Heavenly Dao Rankings: I Am Exposed As The Sword God Novel - Chapter 261
Chapter 261: Dividing The Li Fire Realm
On the Heavenly Bloodline Rankings, the name of Heavenly Venerable Li Huo, one of the owners of the Ancestral Magus Zhurong’s bloodline, suddenly turned gray, followed by the word “deceased.”
This change was like a meteorite falling into the sea, instantly stirring up a storm that shook the various worlds.
After all, Heavenly Venerable Li Huo was the master of a region, a high and mighty Heavenly Venerable level expert. Even if he was not the strongest in the world, he was definitely at the top of the pyramid.
These Realm Masters had existed for countless years. Their cultivation levels were profound, and their strength was unfathomable. There were not many people in the world who could kill them.
The death of such a top expert was indeed shocking.
For a time, countless speculations arose, but the most common one was that he had been killed by the Flower Realm Master.
After all, the news of Heavenly Venerable Li Huo destroying the Flower Realm back then had spread among the various worlds. The appearance of the Bloodline and Physique Rankings also proved that the Flower Realm was not completely destroyed and that Realm Master Caiwei was still alive.
Therefore, when they saw Heavenly Venerable Li Huo killed, everyone could not help but think of Heavenly Venerable Caiwei.
However, it was only a guess. Before knowing the truth, everything was like an unsolved mystery that kept them in suspense.
In the Li Fire Realm, the death of Heavenly Venerable Li Huo had plunged the entire world into panic and unease.
The leaderless Li Fire Realm was also in turmoil. The various world guardians felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave while grieving.
Without a Realm Master presiding over it, their world would definitely become a juicy piece of meat in the eyes of countless Realm Masters.
As the Realm Master, the Li Fire Realm Master’s spirit would not die. He could use the power of the world to revive in the future.
However, that was a long process. Even if he revived, his strength would be greatly reduced. Now, the Heavenly Dao Rankings had even exposed the news of Heavenly Venerable Li Huo’s death to the various worlds.
Everyone knew now that it was unknown if their Li Fire Realm could last until that day.
Furthermore, Heavenly Venerable Li Huo had many grudges when he was alive. Now, these guys would definitely not let the Li Fire Realm off.
Some Realm Masters who had no grudges with them would even come to take a share.
Therefore, the guardians of the Li Fire Realm fell into deep despair.
At the moment, the atmosphere in the Li Fire Palace was incomparably oppressive and heavy. The group of guardians gathered to discuss their next move.
“The Realm Master should have really been killed by Heavenly Venerable Caiwei. Otherwise, who else could it be?”
“I didn’t expect that not only did Heavenly Venerable Caiwei not die, but her strength actually surpassed our Heavenly Venerable!”
“If it’s really her, the Flower Realm will definitely take revenge on us!”
They all knew that Heavenly Venerable Li Huo had led the Li Fire Army to the Flower Realm. Therefore, in their opinion, Heavenly Venerable Li Huo must have been killed by Heavenly Venerable Caiwei.
“Let’s seek help from the Dark Prison Demon Lord. After all, he participated in the destruction of the Flower Realm back then. If Heavenly Venerable Caiwei comes to take revenge, she will definitely take revenge on the Dark Prison Realm too!”
“Hmm, that’s a good idea. If the Dark Prison helps us, it might help us survive this calamity!”
The solemn expressions of the guardians eased a little. However, they did not know that the backer in their hearts was plotting how to devour the Li Fire Realm.
“Since this Heavenly Venerable Caiwei could kill Heavenly Venerable Li Huo, her cultivation must be above mine! This is going to be troublesome!” The Dark Prison Demon Lord said with a grave expression.
‘I have to think of a way to devour the world origin and living beings of the Li Fire Realm to improve my strength. Perhaps I might have a chance to deal with that Heavenly Venerable Caiwei!’
At the thought of this, the Dark Prison Demon Lord quickly summoned his apostles and began to discuss the annexation of the Li Fire Realm.
Almost at the same time, many Realm Masters were planning to annex the Li Fire Realm. Some even formed alliances with other Realm Masters to separate the Fire World.
After all, they knew that there were definitely many people who wanted to snatch this piece of fat meat. It would be difficult to monopolize it.
At that time, disputes would be inevitable among the different factions formed by the various powers. Whoever was stronger would obtain more benefits.
…
Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm, Stone Plain City’s City Lord Manor.
Gongshu Shituo collapsed on the chair as if his body had been emptied.
The Heavenly Venerable Li Huo was dead. The chance he had hoped for was gone.
‘Is this fate? Will I, Gongshu Shituo, only be able to hole up in this tiny Stone Plain City for the rest of my life? Will I never be able to raise my head again?’
“Why is City Lord Gongshu so demoralized?” A man in casual clothes walked in with a lazy expression.
“Young Master Qi, didn’t you say that the Flower Realm Master was severely injured and his strength was greatly reduced? Why did Heavenly Venerable Li Huo die?” Gongshu Shituo asked unhappily.
He had to find someone to vent his frustration on.
“Yeah, it’s not like Heavenly Venerable Li Huo died in the hands of Heavenly Venerable Caiwei!” The man called Young Master Qi said.
“Then who killed Heavenly Venerable Li Huo?” Gongshu Shituo asked.
“It might be Li Yu!” Young Master Qi walked to a chair at the side and sat down casually.
“Li Yu? You mean Li Yu who is at the top of the rankings?” Gongshu Shituo was shocked and puzzled.
“Yeah, it’s probably him! His father is old friends with Heavenly Venerable Caiwei! He’s the only one who can kill Heavenly Venerable Li Huo!” Young Master Qi said.
Gongshu Shituo was even more shocked. Li Yu was actually so strong that he could kill Heavenly Venerable Li Huo. Where did this guy come from?
However, on second thought, Gongshu Shituo felt that something was wrong. “If you knew about this earlier, why didn’t you tell me!”
Gongshu Shituo looked at Young Master Qi unhappily.
“Wouldn’t telling you ruin my grand plan?” Young Master Qi sneered.
“You!” Gongshu Shituo’s expression changed as a chill rose from the bottom of his heart. He looked at Young Master Qi in shock.
“Men!” Gongshu Shituo hurriedly shouted.
However, no one answered outside the door. His expression became even uglier as he took a step back and shouted in a panic, “Someone, someone!”
“Stop shouting. I’ve already used a restriction to isolate this place before I entered. You can’t leave, and no one can enter, nor can anyone hear anything here!” Young Master Qi said with a smile.
“Who are you? What do you want?” Gongshu Shituo suddenly felt his hair stand on end. This fellow in front of him seemed to have planned this all along.
Young Master Qi stood up from his chair. His lazy appearance changed, and his gaze became bone-chilling. His aura seemed to have changed into a different person. “City Lord Gongshu, thank you for your hospitality at this stage. It has finally given me the strength to establish myself in the Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm!”
“Oh yes, don’t you want to stand out and make the Gongshu family look up to you? I can help you!” Young Master Qi said.
Upon hearing this, Gongshu Shituo seemed to reveal a trace of joy. This was his dream. “Really?”
“Mm, but you have to lend me something else!”
“What is it?”
“This body of yours!” Young Master Qi said with a sinister smile. “You’re too stupid. It’s simply a waste of the value of your background and surname. Why don’t you lend it to me and let me help you fulfill your wish?”
As Young Master Qi spoke, his voice slowly became a combination of the two, sounding even more sinister and terrifying.
Upon hearing this, Gongshu Shituo’s heart sank to the bottom again. He had been tricked.
“Please, please let me off. I can promise you anything. Please don’t kill me!” Sensing the terrifying aura emitted by Young Master Qi, Gongshu Shituo was horrified.
His cultivation was only at the Golden Immortal realm, while Young Master Qi’s aura was already at the Pseudo-Saint realm. At this stage, he had used all kinds of resources and even harmed living beings, but he had raised a tiger to cause trouble.
Seeing a black shadow crawl out of Young Master Qi’s body, Gongshu Shituo was scared out of his wits as he sat on the ground. “No, no, no!”
“Hand it over!” The black shadow screamed and instantly transformed into a stream of light that entered Gongshu Shituo’s body.
