Indestructible God King - Chapter 142.1
Chapter 142.1 Dao Lineage Blood (1/2)
“Draconic ley line?” Wang Ke looked at Zi Bufan and Zhu Hongyi in astonishment.
What draconic ley line? Then why were the both of you speaking so dubiously?
“You didn’t know that?” Zhu Hongyi asked.
Wang Ke was still confused, “Know what?”
“In the Mortal Zone stand the Three Empires. Although they have been replaced many times, their capitals remain in the same place; all of them are located on top of the draconic ley line, right above the dragon head position! This would also mean that there’s also a draconic ley line underneath the Qing Capital!” Zhu Hongyi explained.
“Draconic ley line? I have never heard of this before. What is it used for? To protect the empire?” Wang Ke asked curiously.
But Zhu Hongyi merely shook his head, not explaining further.
“Parlor Lord Zhu, why stop halfway? What is the draconic leyline used for?” Wang Ke kept insisting.
Zhu Hongyi shook his head and said, “You don’t have to be concerned with this. Whatever it is, the draconic ley line is only a curse. It’s unrelated to an empire’s auspiciousness!”
“It’s unrelated to the empire’s auspiciousness?” Wang Ke asked curiously.
But Zhu Hongyi looked toward his fellow Parlor Lord and asked, “Zi Bufan, don’t you know? Drawing the draconic ley line out would also bring about a catastrophe!”
“I don’t care. I just want the draconic ley line! Are you going to help me or not!” Zi Bufan replied.
“You already know my answer!” Zhu Hongyi appeared to be a little angry.
“Parlor Lord Zhu, you haven’t explained things clearly. Is the draconic ley line completely unrelated to the empire’s wellbeing? Then why were the capitals of each empire built on top of the ley line’s dragon heads?” Wang Ke asked, feeling puzzled.
“The draconic ley line would eventually regrow if it’s taken out! It’s just that there won’t be any dragon Qi underneath the capital for some time. In any case, a new draconic ley line will be born after a few years of regeneration!” Zhu Hongyi explained.
“Then, if Parlor Lord Zi prefers to draw it out, why don’t you help her?” Wang Ke asked, “If she’s supporting her ancestral nephew to conquer the empire, just for the draconic ley line, she will surely stand down and stop supporting him if you just give her the ley line! Wouldn’t that be a win-win situation?”
“Wang Ke is right. Zhu Hongyi, help me get the draconic ley line! Then I won’t touch Wang Ke nor his clan. How about that?” Zi Bufan asked with a smile.
“Yeah, Parlor Lord Zhu. Why hesitate? It’s so simple!” Wang Ke added.
But Zhu Hongyi explained further with staring eyes, “You don’t understand. The draconic ley line is tantamount to disaster! It would be harmful to everyone! Once it explodes, even Zi Bufan will be killed by its power!”
“You care about me?” Zi Bufan’s eyes glistened in joy.
Wang Ke sought confirmation with a doubtful look, “You mean that this draconic ley line is like a bomb? A super-duper bomb? It can explode at any moment, and destroy everything, both friend and foe?”
“A bomb? Uhh, I don’t know what you are talking about. But it sounds about right!” Zhu Hongyi nodded.
Wang Ke looked beneath him with a twitching face. I’m standing on a bomb right now? My Wang Clan is going to unify the empire while standing on a bomb?
“Tsssss~!” Wang Ke sucked a mouthful of cold air between his teeth.
“Parlor Lord Zhu,” he said, “You promised that you would help me settle the dispute between Parlor Lord Zi and me. And since Parlor Lord Zi gave you face and only asked you to help her with the draconic ley line, please, just help her! If you don’t take it out, my clan members and relatives won’t dare govern here either; who knows when this ley line will explode?” Wang Ke urged Zhu Hongyi with an anxious look.
Zi Bufan chimed in with a smile, “Zhu Hongyi, what do you think? You don’t have to be concerned about my safety. I’ve planned to put my hands over this draconic ley line, so I have a way! You just need to help me subdue it!”
“I can’t do that! Do you think it’s easy to draw the draconic ley line? It’s been sealed!” Zhu Hongyi replied seriously.
“So, why do you think I’ve been trying to capture Zhang Li’er for so many years?” Zi Bufan said.
“Hmm?” Everyone looked at her.
Zi Bufan continued, “Zhang Li’er is not just the princess of the Golden Crow Sect. She is a member of the Zhang Clan outside the Ten-thousand Great Mountains, an authentic descendant of Heavenly Master Zhang! She has the Dao Lineage Blood in her, which can break all seals! We can use her blood to activate the seal within a short time and release the draconic ley line!”
“Dao Lineage Blood?” Zhu Hongyi looked at Zhang Li’er in shock.
“I know for certain. You know where I came from; I was a cultivator of the Golden Crow Sect, and I know this secret of theirs more than anyone else! Zhang Li’er’s blood can help us open the seal quickly! Now, I’m just waiting for you to nod in approval!” Zi Bufan said.
“Would that require us to bleed her dry?” Zhu Hongyi asked with a frown.
Wang Ke interrupted them, “Hey, Parlor Lord Zi. You just promised me to not kill her! She will die if you take all her blood!”
But Zi Bufan reassured them, “It’s all right. Zhang Li’er’s younger brother also returned from outside the Ten-thousand Great Mountains last year. He’s also a descendant of the Zhang Clan and has the Dao Lineage Blood. He works just as well!”
Zhu Hongyi looked at Zi Bufan and asked, “You started preparing to subdue this ley line a long time ago?”
“How about it?” Zi Bufan asked, “Help me, or not?”
Zhu Hongyi was still hesitant. Zi Bufan waited patiently, letting him think it through.
Wang Ke felt helpless as he looked at Zhang Shenxu from afar. Who asked you to be this unlucky? But, since you helped me for free with God Wang Tower’s security, let me say one sentence in your favor. Just one!
“Look, Parlor Lord Zi,” Wang Ke said, “Why not do this. You only want one of those siblings’ blood, right? Why don’t you take most of what you need from Zhang Shenxu and a little from Zhang Li’er? Do you think that works?”
“It doesn’t matter to me. If Zhu Hongyi agrees to help me, I’m okay with anything!” Zi Bufan laughed.
Wang Ke was surprised. She agreed so easily? She became so amenable out of the blue.
Zhu Hongyi took a deep breath and agreed, “Fine. Just this one time! Listen very carefully. After this, take your eyes off Wang Ke!”
“Haha, don’t worry. If I say it, I mean it! Especially the things I promised you!” Zi Bufan said with glistening eyes.
But Zhu Hongyi turned around, not looking back at her.
“Let’s draw their blood then!” Zi Bufan ordered her men.
“Right away!” A few demonic disciples stepped up to comply.
But Wang Ke stopped them, saying, “Hold on, hold on! Just now, Parlor Lord Zi promised to let me help you guys!”
The demonic cultivators tacitly approved of him. And so they took out their specialized artifacts and jabbed them into Zhang Shenxu’s arm.
“Glup!” A large volume of blood was drawn.
“Okay, enough. Leave Zhang Shenxu with his last breath. Let’s do it for Zhang Li’er now. Just take a little! Look at the volume markings, don’t take too much!” Wang Ke immediately went into a commanding mode.
Meanwhile, the Golden Crow Sect’s disciples were waiting anxiously nearby.
“Demon, demon!”
“Wang Ke… I still thought he was a good person, but he’s helping demons to draw Senior Shenxu’s blood. Looking at how much they took, he’s on the verge of dying!”
“Is something wrong with your brain? Can you blame Wang Ke for this? He’s trying to rescue Senior Shenxu!”
“Yeah! That’s right. Wang Ke went the extra mile to appease these demons and rescue our Eldest apprentice-sister!”
“Wang Ke rescued her and saved Senior apprentice-brother Shenxu!”
“Our eldest sister chose the right man indeed!”
