Chapter 3721: Kill Him Later

~7 min read 1,277 words

Ye Liuyun wasn't in a hurry to deal with the God King, but first asked the Magic Vine about its realm.

"What realm are you at now?"

He still didn't know how to assess the Magic Vine's realm.

"Sixth Layer of Cave Heaven!" the Magic Vine replied.

"That high, huh?"

Ye Liuyun hadn't expected the Magic Vine could advance so quickly.

The Magic Vine explained to Ye Liuyun: "Indeed! When I first arrived, many people tried to kill me, so I killed them all, which made my realm rise quickly. After reaching here, the God King also often sent me food, so my strength kept increasing."

Ye Liuyun smiled and nodded: "Your strength has indeed risen fast, but at your current realm you still can't kill him. Considering that he took you in and provided food, I'll let him live a little longer."

The Magic Vine nodded at the words: "The God King is surrounded by a layer of Golden Light, making him harder to kill. So we'll spare him for now and kill him after I grow stronger. If he dares to move against my master, I will never let him go!"

The Magic Vine is devoted to Ye Liuyun and the people around him, but feels little affection for others.

Ye Liuyun also thought that after today's fight, the God King had seen his strength. He truly can't kill the God King now, nor can the God King kill him; they'll have to discuss it later.

Having encountered the fortunate Magic Vine, Ye Liuyun no longer had the mind to continue draining the God King.

"Then let's leave first and kill him later! You return to my Space World; I'll depart using the Black Tower teleport. Lei Ming and the others miss you; go catch up with them!"

"Fine!" the Magic Vine cheerfully agreed, retracted its vines, and was taken by Ye Liuyun into the Space World.

Ye Liuyun produced the Black Tower and teleported straight back into the Western Region army.

Wang Tianqi's Divine Sense, after probing this, fell into deep contemplation.

"He can encounter this too? Could this kid's luck be stronger than mine? Or did he obtain something in the Cave Heaven World?"

He knew Ye Liuyun's Kuailei Clone Puppet was hard to deal with, but hadn't expected so many mishaps.

First the time aura failed, then a mysteriously powerful combatant appeared, then that Clone Puppet was unafraid of Spiritual Soul Attacks, and finally these people's battle armor grades were all very high, making them virtually unkillable.

Even the energy explosion he set up failed to kill them. Moreover, the pre‑prepared Magic Vine turned out to know that Clone Puppet.

He wouldn't blame all this on a single puppet. He thought the cause must be Ye Liuyun's true self, who obtained something related to luck in the Cave Heaven World.

"No way, the lands I've seized must never be taken by others!"

With that thought, he immediately summoned the Third Divine Son.

"Here's a task: recruit Martial Cultivators to kill Ye Liuyun."

Such a huge incident in the Royal Palace had long been known to the Divine Sons, who even watched the battle entirely with Divine Sense. The strength of Ye Liuyun's men still gave him a headache when he recalled it.

"Father King..."

The Fifth Divine Son frowned and began to speak, but he cut him off.

He said coldly to the Fifth Divine Son: "Go find the merchants; their Honor Guild is also being hit by Ye Liuyun. Within our dynasty there is no one who can deal with Ye Liuyun, but they can be sought from outside the realm.

Once this is done, I will announce that I will pass the God King's position to you!"

The Fifth Divine Son's eyes lit up at the words.

Previously the God King had ordered him not to let merchants bring external forces in, which severely limited his growth; now that restriction is lifted, of course he's pleased.

Moreover, completing this will let him smoothly inherit the throne, and his wish is about to be fulfilled.

"Very well, my son will arrange it now," the Fifth Divine Son finally agreed.

After he left, Wang Tianqi called the Third Divine Son again.

He instructed him: "

Take a hundred thousand Imperial Guard immediately, enter the Monster World, establish a garrison, and start clearing the demons and monsters inside!"

The Third Divine Son was stunned. According to the Left Prime Minister's speculation, the God King probably won't dispatch troops soon.

He asked Wang Tianqi in confusion, "Father King, shall we depart now? It seems the monsters haven't launched a large‑scale attack yet?"

Wang Tianqi replied, "We set out immediately. Recently a large force of monsters has killed Martial Cultivators; those cultivators alone can't guard that passage.

Monster attacks are a matter of time, so we must strike first. This is also a chance for you to prove yourself. Without sufficient merit, even if I pass the God King's position to you, you won't hold it firmly!"

The Third Divine Son was so excited he could barely speak.

"Is Father King hinting that he'll pass the throne to me? Then I'll seize this opportunity!"

With that thought, the Third Divine Son hurriedly agreed.

After he left, a chilling ray shot from Wang Tianqi's eyes.

"Hmph, I, the king, move the pieces; everyone is just a pawn. No one may scheme for this position, not even the Divine Sons!"

Immediately, he summoned the Right Prime Minister.

"Release more information, rally more Martial Cultivators to join the fight against the monsters. Then go to the Eastern Region and the Dragon Clan, and have them send reinforcements."

"Understood!" Bai Yunmu replied, then asked Wang Tianqi, "What about Ye Liuyun? We've struck at him this time; he may retaliate."

Wang Tianqi sighed, "We underestimated him. But now that it's come to this, he'll be more wary of me, so we can't act against him again soon.

Let's observe first. Anyway, as long as he doesn't launch a major offensive, it's fine!"

"Got it!" Bai Yunmu answered and withdrew.

But after returning to the Right Prime Minister's residence, he began to ponder.

"Given the God King's personality and his desire to control power, he won't relinquish his position early. So what do these successive big moves mean? What is he planning?"

His information network is very swift; as soon as the two princes left the Royal Palace, he already knew what orders they received.

But Wang Tianqi is suspicious by nature and won't reveal his plans early, so he can only guess. One thing is certain: the God King will definitely not let Ye Liuyun go.

Although the God King can discard even Divine Sons when ruthless, Ye Liuyun killed two of his sons, seized control of several regions, and lost a battle; this grudge he must avenge.

Because Ye Liuyun's actions insulted the royal authority and shook its unshakable foundation. Moreover, Ye Liuyun commands heavy troops and controls several major regions.

He knows the God King too well. The death of a Divine Son is no matter, but anyone who threatens his throne has only a dead end.

This is why Bai Yunmu, as Right Prime Minister, never favors any Divine Son. Wang Tianqi is still young and wouldn't relinquish his full strength so early. Whoever covets the throne is courting death.

The already dead Divine Sons are examples. It seems they were linked to external causes, but in fact each has the God King's hand behind it. Recently the code conversion has been severe, giving us more motivation, faster updates; please click to exit reading mode. Thank you.
