Chapter 666

The matter here was settled.

Watching Ao Lie intended to temporarily go into seclusion to cultivate.

As for taking those treasures to exchange, Watching Ao Lie planned to slow down for a while.

After all, if his own strength was insufficient, if he rashly broke the seal, and only the Azure Dragon was left to fight the enemy, it would be extremely inappropriate.

Only after the Dragon Clan's strength had increased to a certain level would it be the best time.

At the same time, on the other side, where the Heavenly Court was.

The Jade Emperor's brow suddenly jumped.

The Queen Mother was a bit puzzled, not understanding why the Jade Emperor suddenly froze.

So she asked: "What happened, that could make you so distracted?"

A moment later, the Jade Emperor shook his head; he indeed did not know why, but he just felt uneasy.

It was as if something out of his control was happening, but he had not yet noticed it.

A potential threat appeared, causing his instinct to react.

And so, the Jade Emperor immediately summoned his subordinate, Taibai Jinxing.

"Taibai Jinxing, I previously sent you to investigate the situation of the ancient Demon Clan battlefield."

"Is there any news?"

Hearing this, cold sweat streamed down Taibai Jinxing's forehead.

For a time, the Lingxiao Treasure Hall was incomparably quiet.

This also made the Jade Emperor feel very dissatisfied, and he immediately scolded: "Taibai Jinxing, are you deaf to what I say?!"

At this, Taibai Jinxing did not dare to stand and knelt down instantly.

Trembling, he said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, those people sent out, they…"

"What happened to them? Speak quickly!"

The Jade Emperor had no patience left and glared angrily.

Now feeling uneasy, he did not want to listen to so much nonsense at all, only wanting to know the answer.

Taibai Jinxing did not dare to delay any longer and immediately informed him: "They are all dead."

"What!?"

Hearing this news, the Jade Emperor's expression shook.

Although those sent out were not truly powerful soldiers, they were just an advance force.

But after all, they were also superiors among the Heavenly Soldiers; investigating a long-sealed ancient battlefield should not have caused such big trouble.

This could only prove that there was really something fishy about the ancient battlefield, and it was likely even more terrifying than imagined.

After pondering for a moment, the Jade Emperor immediately linked this matter to his own unease.

Thus, he immediately summoned the general he could mobilize, Li Jing.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Li Jing was as loyal as ever to the Jade Emperor.

Although his temper was a bit foul, it was all for the sake of the Heavenly Court.

Moreover, his strength was also acceptable, having the cultivation base of a Taiyi Jinxian, so he was not too weak.

Coupled with the help of his son Nezha, the two could be said to have always been the best combination sent out by the Heavenly Court.

This time, the Jade Emperor also intended to let Li Jing go and investigate again.

"Li Jing, the ancient Witch-Demon battlefield has undergone changes, which seem to be related to this Kalpa."

"It concerns the survival of my Heavenly Court; take Nezha and go investigate quickly, be careful!"

Having received the mission, Li Jing was naturally very happy.

Previously, because of Sun Wukong's matter, he had suffered quite a few losses and lost face.
