Comeback of Heaven Sovereign and The Turbulence in the Immortal Court
“Well. Let’s give him one last chance. If he’s still not coming out, you have to take action immediately since that guy is not a match for you.” Star Sovereign said.
He still trusted Jiang Chen completely without having any suspicions towards him.
This was mainly because Jiang Chen had been performing so well, and no one could find any loopholes from his behavior.
“Yes, Sovereign Lord.”
Jiang Chen responded, then turned to Big Yellow and nodded. Big Yellow and him flew towards Heaven Sovereign Palace.
At this moment, other than Feng Jingyang and Ling Liqun who were standing amongst the crowd, there were also a few higher level cultivators that had some subtle changes on their facial expression. Obviously, these were the people whom Han Feng had talked with secretly. They knew what’s going to happen today and they were already well-prepared to face the coming situation. As soon as Heaven Sovereign staged a comeback, they would immediately stand by him and express their stance.
None of the disciple of Dragon Hall was there. Yu Huafan was the only one who stayed beside Feng Jingyang. Those who surrounded Heaven Sovereign Palace were the higher level cultivators who attended the a.s.sembly on that day. They were all formidable Fourth Grade Great Sovereigns. Some who just joined the group were at least Third Grade Great Sovereigns. Yu Huafan was the only one with the lowest cultivation realm amongst everyone.
However, Yu Huafan was talented. Although he only reached the peak of Second Grade Great Sovereign, his combat strength could overcome a Third Grade Great Sovereign. Moreover, his breathing was quite intense, showing signs that he might advance to Third Grade Great Sovereign at any time.
Inside Heaven Sovereign Palace, by the time Jiang Chen and Big Yellow entered, Heaven Sovereign had already been prepared for everything. He was walking towards the gate of Heaven Sovereign Palace.
“Little Chen, Big Yellow, you are both here.”
Seeing his brothers whom he had not met for a long time, Nangong Wentian’s face revealed a warm smile.
“Star Sovereign has already surrounded Heaven Sovereign Palace. Ah Nan, how is your recovery?” asked Jiang Chen.
“I have finished refining the Ancient Elephant Bloodline and my cultivation realm has also recovered to the apex condition. I am now at the peak of Sixth Grade Great Sovereign, equally matched with Star Sovereign.”
Nantian Wentian’s face was filled with confidence. The imposing manner that was emitting from his body was startling.
“Alright. Let’s get this over with Star Sovereign today.”
Jiang Chen said with a smile, and his combat intent started spreading out.
“Although I have already recovered my cultivation realm, there are still too many cultivators standing by Star Sovereign’s side. I’m not too sure about our chance of winning.”
Nangong Wentian was a bit worried and said.
“Nothing to worry about. What kind of situation have we never seen before? We have gone through a lot of situations until now. Later, you focus on handling Star Sovereign and Ling Liqun will deal with Hu Yong. Feng Jingyang and I will handle the rest.”
Jiang Chen’s face showed his boldness. The word “fear” never existed in his mind. The stronger his enemy was, the more excited he became.
“That’s right. You are right. When both of us are together as brothers, we have never been afraid of anything. We have faced all kinds of situation and had walked through them in the past. Let’s turn the heavens and earth upside down today.”
Nangong Wentian laughed as he had been waiting for this day for too long.
“Hahaha! Let’s go. I am losing my patience.”
Big Yellow crackled with laughter. No matter how serious things became, he was never worried about anything. It had been a long time since the last time he fought in a fierce battle.
“How about me? Heaven Sovereign.”
Han Feng could not help asking as he was also very excited right now. He had been waiting for this particular day for Heaven Sovereign to stage a comeback. Han Feng’s heart was on fire, he was emotional but also excited.
“Han Feng, stay inside Heaven Sovereign Palace. Don’t come out no matter what happens.” Nangong Wentian said seriously.
“Okay.”
Han Feng nodded. He really wished that he could join the battle, particularly at this moment when his heart was on fire. However, he also clearly knew his own limitation and strength. He was not qualified to join a battle like this. He couldn’t make any contributions, rather, he would be a burden to others. Many cultivators would join hands in this battle and a single attack from them could put him to death easily.
“Little Chen, let’s go.”
Nangong Wentian smiled, then turned his body, flying to the sky above Heaven Sovereign Palace. Jiang Chen and Big Yellow stood beside on both sides.
This scene struck Star Sovereign dumb at once. Not only Star Sovereign, everyone was in a state of complete shock.
“Star Sovereign, it has been a long time since we last met. What you’ve done really let me down. I am afraid that you won’t be able to kill me today because my cultivation realm has been fully recovered.”
Heaven Sovereign looked at Star Sovereign and said coldly. Meanwhile, his formidable imposing manner was pressuring. That was the aura of a peak Sixth Grade Great Sovereign.
“Is it you? Jiang Chen.”
Star Sovereign was not a fool. Coming to this moment, he had already known that this was related to Jiang Chen.
“Star Sovereign, I’ve forgotten to tell you my real ident.i.ty. Heaven Sovereign and I have been close friends and we have gone through life and death. The reason I came to Fengchi Immortal Court was to help Heaven Sovereign. I am the one who searched for the Ancient Elephant Bloodline for Heaven Sovereign. I am also the one who gained him seven-days to make him fully recover. The seventh day is here right now. It’s the comeback of Heaven Sovereign and you can abdicate now.”
Jiang Chen said in laughter, and he was not ashamed of doing all of these .
“Well… Well… Well.. Such a smart Jiang Chen. I, Star Sovereign, have been controlling everything according to my way for my whole life. Who knew that I would be tricked by a small potato like you.”
Star Sovereign was in a towering rage. He had never expected a truth like this. He thought that Jiang Chen was completely under his control, but who knew that Jiang Chen had been playing tricks on him,
Strong killing intent was spreading out from Star Sovereign. There was no one in the world who had played tricks on him. Jiang Chen must pay a heavy price for what he had done.
“Star Sovereign, we are never on the same path. You are ruthless and cruel. You achieve your goals by hook or crook and at the cost of sacrificing others. Someone like you is not qualified to be on the throne of Sovereign Lord.” Jiang Chen said loudly.
“Star Sovereign, I have told you before. We shouldn’t have waited for seven days. Rather, we should’ve taken action immediately against Heaven Sovereign Palace. But, it’s still not too late now. The Immortal Court will still be ruled by your hands. Even if Heaven Sovereign has recovered his cultivation realm, so what? The two of them are definitely not our match.” Hu Yong said coldly.
He and Star Sovereign gnashed their teeth in anger towards Jiang Chen. If Jiang Chen had not been here, Heaven Sovereign would have been eliminated much earlier.
“Elder Hu, I am sorry but we are not the only ones who are here to fight,” Jiang Chen said with a smile.
*Whizzing*
Once he finished speaking, there were figures of cultivators swarming over to Heaven Sovereign’s side like shooting stars. In a blink of an eye, there were more than ten people standing at Heaven Sovereign’s side.
There were Ling Liqun, Feng Jingyang, Yu Huafan, another two Fifth Grade Great Sovereigns and other Fourth Grade Great Sovereigns. Although Heaven Sovereign’s group was nothing compared to Star Sovereign’s, Heaven Sovereign’s influence had already been spreading out. The partic.i.p.ation of Ling Liqun especially turned the battle between the Sovereign Lords into a huge turbulence in the Immortal Court.
