Chapter 2449: The Extreme Bliss Palace Master Has Gone Mad

They urged Huang Lao to, for the greater good, give up Ye Zhangqing.

Besides, even if they act, Ye Zhangqing isn't necessarily going to be hurt.

He is, after all, the son of a Yāoniè.

All the way back onto the Heavenly Family's largest fairy vessel, upon reaching the cabin, only the three of them remained, and the Heavenly Family Ancestor indeed spoke up.

"Brother Huang, this matter cannot be delayed; if Extreme Bliss Palace is not eliminated, it will surely become a great scourge later, and by then it could be a major calamity for the entire Immortal Realm. We…………………"

Before he finished speaking, Huang Lao's deadly gaze fell upon him, that look icy, carrying a strong warning.

In response, the Heavenly Family Ancestor paused briefly, but then steeled himself to speak; these words had come to the point where they could no longer be left unsaid.

Moreover, that youngster Ye Zhangqing's own strength is not weak; besides, he has various magic treasures we gave him, and now he even has a Fairy Artifact protecting him. Even if Extreme Bliss Palace wanted to perish together, that kid might not necessarily come to harm.

"You need to have confidence in him."

Having said that, the Heavenly Family Ancestor glanced at Huang Lao with some guilt, awaiting his reply.

He said this naturally out of self-interest, having killed their ancestor and heir, which already forged a deadly feud; could they possibly spare him?

However, after a long silence, Huang Lao's words, when he finally spoke, caused the Heavenly Family Ancestor's face to darken.

"Speaking lightly, why don't you have Tianlin come over tomorrow to exchange for Changqing, and let your Tianlin go in as a hostage to test it?"

"When the time comes, whoever doesn't act is a grandson."

"You………………………"

This is outright joking; how could he possibly let the Heavenly Family's young master enter the Myriad Soul Banner?

Absolutely impossible.

Seeing the Heavenly Family Ancestor's demeanor, Huang Lao directly couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention.

Come on, it's not because that isn't your Heavenly Family kin; if you swapped in your Heavenly Family's Tianlin for a test, would you still dare to act?

What nonsense about not necessarily dying; that's just fooling a three-year-old.

Seeing Huang Lao and the Heavenly Family Ancestor like that, Miao Cuiflower beside them said helplessly.

"Why are you still arguing among yourselves? Don't rush— isn't it still fine? First keep control over Extreme Bliss Palace inside and out; there's still time, slowly think of a solution."

At this point, Miao Cuiflower acted as a mediator, after all, given the situation, they must present a united front to the outside.

But don't let it be that Extreme Bliss Palace isn't settled yet, while our side descends into chaos first—that would be troublesome.

Upon hearing Miao Cuiflower's words, Huang Lao and the Heavenly Family Ancestor stopped speaking; evidently they both understood the priorities.

For now, we can only slowly think of a solution again.

On the third day, Huang Lao and his two companions went to Extreme Bliss Palace again, and the palace's surroundings remained completely sealed off by the Heavenly Family and Wushen Palace personnel.

Those outside cannot get in, and those inside naturally cannot get out.

Countless eyes are now fixed on this place, all wanting to see how the situation develops.

After all, this is a major event capable of altering the entire Immortal Realm's situation.

Especially those forces originally dependent on Extreme Bliss Palace—their hearts are practically in their throats.

Once Extreme Bliss Palace is truly destroyed, what fate awaits them? No one knows.

At this moment, still in the Extreme Bliss Palace's main hall, the Heavenly Family Ancestor happened to be using these subordinate forces as his talking point.

"Does Extreme Bliss Palace not care about those subordinate sects at all? Or are you insisting that we intervene and destroy them?"

The Extreme Bliss Palace Master kept silent, so the Heavenly Family Ancestor threatened with the palace's numerous subordinate sects.

However, regarding this, the Extreme Bliss Palace Master didn't even think about it, spoke without a hint of hesitation, utterly resolute.

"Senior, Extreme Bliss Palace is now like a mud Buddha crossing the river—we can barely protect ourselves; how could we have any spare energy to look after others?"

"If you seniors want to slaughter, then slaughter; I only hope you don't ruin the Heavenly Family's ten-thousand-year reputation."

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Family Ancestor's face sank— is he really this impervious to persuasion?

To be frank, if Huang Lao weren't sitting right here at the moment, he would truly hate to not strike out immediately.

But Huang Lao is present, so he cannot act.

Having already killed that old coot He Yingqin, he never expected to feel this stifled.

Even when dealing with He Yingqin, the Heavenly Family Ancestor had never felt this stifled before.

Being completely manipulated by a junior, and yet you have no way at all.

All we can do is stalemate here.

Besides, negotiation is negotiation— why did you jam that broken pole in there?

Only see, the Myriad Soul Banner is firmly planted on the left side of the Extreme Bliss Palace Master, within easy reach.

As a Fairy Artifact, it could easily be retracted, yet the Extreme Bliss Palace Master insists on leaving it planted here.

Undoubtedly, this is meant to establish dominance and serve as a warning.

Warning the Heavenly Family Ancestor and his two companions not to act rashly— this Ye Zhangqing is still inside my Myriad Soul Banner.

If you dare to move recklessly, I dare to kill him inside.

Such an act made the Heavenly Family Ancestor feel endless anger; he hasn't felt this stifled in how many years?

A junior who could be slapped to death with a single palm now dares to threaten him like this, and yet he has no recourse.

Glaring hatefully at that broken banner, yet as he stared, the Heavenly Family Ancestor suddenly froze, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

His eyes widened.

Just now he seemed to see the Myriad Soul Banner tremble slightly, then a clump of black qi faintly drifted away, but in an instant it turned to nothing.

But now, upon looking again, the Myriad Soul Banner has returned to normal.

Could he have been mistaken? No way— with his cultivation, how could he be wrong?

Unconvinced, he kept staring fixedly at the Myriad Soul Banner, and at this moment the Extreme Bliss Palace Master's voice also drifted over faintly.

"Senior, don't even think about snatching the banner; your Heavenly Family also possesses Fairy Artifacts, so you should know— even if you seniors act, I could kill everyone inside before you manage to do anything."

The Palace Master of the Extreme Bliss Palace still thought that the Heavenly Family Ancestor, seeing that negotiations had failed, wanted to make a move to seize the banner.

But this idea is too naive, utterly impossible; the Myriad Soul Banner is a Fairy Artifact—even if you snatched it, what could you do?

Even if you killed him, the artifact spirit of the Myriad Soul Banner would still obey his orders and immediately strike down Ye Zhangqing and his companions.

Fairy Artifacts do have artifact spirits, and artifact spirits are………………………uh???

He was still wearing a smile on his lips, but suddenly, the Palace Master of the Extreme Bliss Palace seemed to sense something, and the smile on his face froze.

No, where is my Myriad Soul Banner? Why is the connection gone?

You know, this Myriad Soul Banner is currently the sole lifesaving straw for the entire Extreme Bliss Palace.

But just a moment ago, he suddenly discovered that his connection with the Myriad Soul Banner had been lost.

It just disappeared for no reason.

This is impossible; the Myriad Soul Banner is a Fairy Artifact—how could such a situation arise?

He almost instinctively turned his head, blankly staring at the Myriad Soul Banner beside him.

It looked exactly the same, unchanged, yet at this moment, in the eyes of the Palace Master of the Extreme Bliss Palace, this tattered banner seemed utterly unfamiliar.

What about my connection with the artifact spirit? How did it just disappear?

I'm doomed……………………

Such a thought unconsciously welled up in his heart, and the three Heavenly Family Ancestors naturally also noticed the abnormality of the Palace Master of the Extreme Bliss Palace; for a moment, the Heavenly Family Ancestor seemed to think of something, a flash of joy crossed his eyes.
