Chapter 2571: Royal Court

Hearing that Zhao Tianqing actually went to help the Heavenly Spirit Tribe retake the occupied immortal crystal mine, Tianhe couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

The Heavenly Spirit Tribe's immortal crystal mine has nothing to do with you.

The Heavenly Spirit Tribe and the Human Race have decent relations, but after all they are still an external tribe.

Faced with Tianhe's question, that heavenly official below also truthfully recounted what he knew.

I heard that this matter was orchestrated single-handedly by Ye Zhangqing, and Zhao Tianqing was not acting under the banner of the Heavenly Palace.

Even the fellow Heavenly Palace powerhouses traveling together, as well as those five heavenly officials, were all voluntary companions.

Tianhe's expression grew increasingly strange.

Especially upon hearing that the main force consisted of cultivators from the Immortal Realm's Wushen Palace and the Heavenly Family, Tianhe fell into deep silence.

Although it had been who knows how many years since he last contacted his family, hearing those two words 'Heavenly Family' still inevitably stirred something.

After all, they are also his blood relatives.

But why would the Heavenly Family, instead of staying peacefully in the Immortal Realm, launch a major campaign into Beyond the Heavens? If something went wrong and their strength was diminished, not even the internal stability of the Immortal Realm would hold.

You should know that the Heavenly Family is acclaimed as the foremost immortal clan, receiving reverence from all the major immortal clans of the Immortal Realm.

The reason for this is ultimately their own strength.

Once their own strength weakens, the attitudes of the various major immortal clans of the Immortal Realm become delicate.

This is simply human nature; it's always been that way.

So he completely fails to understand why his family would do this.

"Alright, I understand this matter."

After regaining his composure, Tianhe waved his hand, signaling that heavenly official to withdraw.

After the person left, Tianhe then personally contacted Zhao Tianqing.

Through the light curtain formed by Mìfǎ, upon seeing Zhao Tianqing, Tianhe wasted no words and spoke directly.

"What does the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's immortal crystal mine have to do with you?"

"Huh???"

Hearing that, Zhao Tianqing blinked, then replied offhand.

"This is my private affair; I didn't use the Heavenly Palace's name."

"You…………………"

"You have something?"

Zhao Tianqing also didn't waste words; without letting Tianhe finish, he fired back a question.

As for that, the words on Tianhe's lips were swallowed whole; finally shifting the topic, he got down to business.

Both are vice palace masters of the Heavenly Palace, beings surpassing the Present Era's Strongest.

Naturally there is no superior-subordinate relationship, so when he speaks with Zhao Tianqing it is a consultation; moreover, this time he also needs the other's help.

"Do you still remember that extraterritorial heavenly demon's royal court I mentioned earlier?"

"Hmm, I have a vague impression."

"My preparations are nearly complete; we can act now, and opportunity waits for no one—this cannot be delayed, we must hurry. I'll give you the location of the royal court; bring people quickly to support, and no longer worry about that immortal crystal mine."

"My side………………… Hey, wait, why are you panicking?"

Hearing Tianhe's words, Zhao Tianqing wanted to say more, but the other gave him no chance and ended the conversation directly.

Only Zhao Tianqing on the other end remained, wearing a helpless expression.

"How can this guy not listen when people speak? I haven't even finished saying anything, and you're already leaving."

"I still have unfinished business on my end."

"That demon god ingredient inside the mining domain hasn't been secured yet—can we leave now?"

Zhao Tianqing naturally didn't want to leave right now, but he had already known about Tianhe's plan to take out the immortal crystal mine.

Tianhe wanted to directly seize an extraterritorial heavenly demon's royal court; such a major undertaking certainly required prior consultation with him.

After hearing Tianhe's words, Zhao Tianqing also agreed, for if they could truly capture an extraterritorial heavenly demon's royal court, the blow to those demons would be absolutely enormous.

Looking across the entire extraterritorial heavenly demon domain, there are only seven royal courts in total.

Losing any one of them would be an absolutely severe blow to the extraterritorial heavenly demons.

But circumstances change; this is not the same as before.

Besides, at least hear me finish my words; I haven't even finished speaking, why are you panicking?

He still wanted to contact Tianhe again, but found he couldn't get through at all, leaving Zhao Tianqing dumbfounded.

That old guy is still as headstrong as ever.

However, attacking the royal court is a matter of great importance and cannot be taken lightly; support is definitely needed.

We can only first finish preparing the ingredients here, then rush to support Tianhe at the earliest opportunity.

Thinking this through, Zhao Tianqing had no leisure to spare; he immediately summoned Huang Lao, the Heavenly Family's ancestral elder, Miao Cuihua, and those five heavenly officials of the Heavenly Palace.

He recounted everything Tianhe had just told him, then added.

"Time is pressing; quickly seize this immortal crystal mine—no time to waste on those ingredients—we attack today."

"Yes."

Hearing that, everyone present realized the matter was urgent and naturally distinguished priorities.

First secure the ingredients; eating them slowly is fine.

Moreover, there's plenty of food inside the royal court; once obtained, it will last a long time.

Zhao Tianqing's side was pressed for time; at his command, the many humans present sprang into action quickly.

Ye Zhangqing naturally also received the news; his knowledge of the royal court is limited.

He only knows it's similar to a gathering place of extraterritorial heavenly demons, merely a large-scale gathering site.

Among them, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons are numerous, the strong ones are not few, and those powerful Demon Gods are also among them.

Basically, it is equivalent to the status of the Human Race's immortal city within the Immortal Realm.

Therefore, attacking the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon's royal court is definitely a major undertaking.

Ye Zhangqing naturally wouldn't let us down; he immediately began preparing food, supporting the Human Race's attack on this immortal crystal mine, and settling the battle in one fell swoop.

Moreover, capturing this immortal crystal mine will allow Xu Jie and Zhao Zhengping to go to the Heavenly Pool for cultivation.

Numerous Human Race cultivators have already gathered around the entrance light gate.

That Heavenly Spirit Tribe's spirit child, also under the protection of Huang Lao, has come here.

His task is simple: just open the entrance light gate, and afterwards the Human Race cultivators present will take care of the rest.

No more fancy tricks; let's quickly clean up the mess here, as everyone still needs to rush to support.

「Let's get started. 」

Zhao Tianqing nodded at Huang Lao; seeing that, Huang Lao looked toward the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's spirit child.

This spirit child is also quick-witted, immediately opening the entrance light gate.

As the light gate, the ice-crystal-like blockade gradually dissipated, and the passage into the Mining Domain was opened once again.

At Zhao Tianqing's command, numerous Human Race cultivators rushed in.

This is the final battle; we had already crippled the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons inside this immortal crystal mine, so this battle should not be difficult.

The Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons within this Mining Domain, even if they resist, cannot change anything.

Moreover, the morale gap between the two sides is huge—don't you see Ye Zhangqing's Heavenly Outside Immortal Vessel stopped behind everyone?

That rich aroma of food has already wafted out; when the battle comes, if you want to eat, just turn around and you're at the Fire Room.

In this way, the Human Race side naturally has high morale, basically fearing nothing.
