The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2122: Somewhat Familiar

The cultivator at the level of Chunyu Bo, if without special encounters, indeed wouldn’t easily see through the Void Eye to the possibility of a Void Transformation lineage hidden behind it.

You must know, even Lord Zu Ming personally examined the Void Eye and didn’t realize more information until Ji Bian saw it, and only then did he speculate that Lord Ying Zhu might have entered a relic or residence left by a mighty person of the Void Transformation lineage. Ji Bian indeed couldn’t be certain, he just considered it possible, and the existence of this possibility is worth investing energy and resources to gamble.

"Hiss!"

In the hall of the Radiant City Lord Mansion, a sound of inhalation spread out.

Chunyu Bo widened his eyes, looking at the scene on the screen with disbelief.

Others didn’t recognize Jing Yan, but he did; he knew that this seemingly very young cultivator was the one who came to Radiant City with Lord Ying Zhu.

At that time, he was slightly puzzled as to why Lord Ying Zhu was so courteous to this young man, but he didn’t think much of it. Now it seems, this young man is indeed extraordinary!

"Who is he?"

"Divine Martial City, how can there be such a powerful cultivator of the All Things Realm?"

"Is he a guest of Ying Zhu, or a reclusive cultivator in Divine Martial City?"

"It’s too incredible, he killed Yang Jie with just one sword?"

The Nether Sky Realm cultivators present spoke up one after another.

"Father, I know this person. Even if this person is not a guest of Ying Zhu, he must have a deep connection with Ying Zhu." Chunyu Bo spoke.

"Oh?" Chunyu Qing turned to look at Chunyu Bo.

Others in the hall also looked at Chunyu Bo.

"Not long ago, at the auction I hosted, this person came with Lord Ying Zhu. At that time, Lord Ying Zhu was quite courteous to him, with respect in his words, I was secretly surprised. I never thought this person’s strength would be so formidable. Although he is still in the All Things Realm cultivation, his combat power is probably beyond most Nether Sky Realm cultivators." Chunyu Bo said in an admiring tone.

"Killing Yang Jie with one sword, such combat power is indeed not something ordinary Nether Sky Realm cultivators can match." Chunyu Qing nodded and continued, "It’s just, why hasn’t such a personality gained any fame before? It wasn’t even heard that Ying Zhu has such a person by his side."

"Lord, could it be that Ying Zhu just recruited a guest?" someone asked.

"This is indeed possible. It’s just... how could Ying Zhu, as a third-rate lord, have the ability to recruit such a helper? Even if this cultivator is in the All Things Realm and not the Nether Sky Realm, it would require unimaginable costs to recruit him." Chunyu Qing frowned.

"What a pity! Such a cultivator will probably die in Divine Martial City today." Chunyu Qing shook his head again.

"Yes. Although his strength is formidable, there are over twenty Nether Sky Realm cultivators beside Lord Zu Ming. No matter how strong he is, how many Nether Sky Realm cultivators can he defend against?" a guest sighed.

Chunyu Qing glanced at the people present and thought to himself that they didn’t know that the person behind Zu Ming is the infamous Immortal Rhythm Netherworld Realm mighty Ji Bian.

Chunyu Qing did not express this thought.

Even though he hasn’t seen Ji Bian on the screen now, he guesses that there is at least a more than half possibility that Ji Bian is nearby Divine Martial City watching the battlefield. Ji Bian personally came to inquire in Radiant City before, showing that he is very concerned about that Immortal Rhythm Treasure, which probably hides a big secret. Ordinary Immortal Rhythm Treasures would never make Ji Bian so attentive.

"It’s a bit of a pity indeed. If I had discovered this person sooner, perhaps he could be poached from the Ying Family Territory." Chunyu Qing showed a regretful expression.

...

Wuxia City, Wuxia Heavenly Monarch Mansion.

On the jade stone throne in the huge hall, the purple-haired and purple-eyed Wuxia Heavenly Monarch was sitting there.

Similarly, there was a screen of the Law converging in the hall.

The Wuxia Heavenly Monarch did not interfere in the matter of Lord Ying Zhu stepping into the Zu Family declaring war on the Ying Family, which was a tacit approval of the Zu Family’s declaration of war against the Ying Family.

Yet, she still paid attention to this completely asymmetrical war.

Since Lord Zu Ming led a large group of powerful people in his territory, invading the Ying Family territory, she had already been sitting here watching the screen of Law converging below.

From beginning to end, there was no expression change on her exquisite face. An identity reaching her level would no longer care for a small territory like the Ying Family territory being destroyed. The Zu Family’s declaration of war was justified, Lord Zu Ming’s foster son died at the hands of Ying Zhu, and it’s natural for Lord Zu Ming to seek revenge. Whether or not everything was deliberately arranged by Lord Zu Ming, it ultimately gave Lord Zu Ming an excuse.

In this hall, there were similarly multiple figures standing there.

"The formation of Divine Martial City has been breached!"

"Many cultivators of the All Things Realm from the Zu Family territory have entered the city."

"It looks like the Ying Family is about to be destroyed. With the breach of Divine Martial City, other cities couldn’t possibly form any resistance against the Zu Family."

"Ying Zhu is quite tenacious, even managing to fight against multiple Nether Sky Realm cultivators of similar strength using a formation that is already ruined, not showing any sign of defeat yet."

"Yet the strongest Nether Sky Realm cultivators from the Zu Family territory haven’t made a move. Most of Lord Zu Ming’s Nether Sky Realm guest cultivators are still continuing to destroy formations inside and outside Divine Martial City!"

These experts under the Wuxia Heavenly Monarch’s command whispered.

"Hmm? Look quickly!"

"Who is that? That person... seems to be only in the All Things Realm, hasn’t entered the Nether Sky Realm yet!"

"What did he do? How did he do this? He killed Yang Jie with just one sword? I know Yang Jie, although his combat power isn’t considered strong among Nether Sky Realm cultivators, he was proficient in Void Dao Skill and had good self-preservation abilities. And yet he was killed directly with one sword? That spell, the spell he performed seems to be the Seven Luminaries Technique created by the Seven Luminaries Heavenly Monarch!"

These few experts suddenly shifted their eyes and stared at Jing Yan on the screen. Just in that blink of an eye, Jing Yan killed Yang Jie.

Even the Wuxia Heavenly Monarch slightly moved her body, and a trace of strange light flashed in her purple eyes. Her gaze fell on Jing Yan in the screen.

"Has the control over spells reached such a level? Who is this person?" the Wuxia Heavenly Monarch softly muttered.

But everyone present heard these words from the Wuxia Heavenly Monarch.

"Lord Heavenly Monarch, this person... is the Jing Yan that Ying Zhu mentioned." The middle-aged woman in black said, bowing slightly to the Wuxia Heavenly Monarch.

This woman in black was responsible for intelligence work on behalf of the Wuxia Heavenly Monarch. Previously, messages from Lord Zu Ming and Ying Zhu requesting aid were conveyed through this woman.

"Jing Yan?" The Wuxia Heavenly Monarch furrowed her brows, she had some impression of this name.
