Chapter 817: The influence of the hundred-life karmic bond, Young Emperor Empress Lingyuan, and the plan to kill Within Jun Xiaoyao
The words of Gu Dizi left the entire scene in dead silence.
No one could have imagined that at this most tense juncture of the struggle for the Young Emperor position, Gu Dizi would pull such a stunt.
Empress Lingyuan's gaze also flickered, showing a hint of surprise.
This move by Gu Dizi was somewhat beyond her expectations.
After all, the position of Immortal Court Young Emperor could be considered one of the most noble identities in the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
In the future, it was even possible to become the Master of the Immortal Court!
Yet Gu Dizi was willing to give it up.
At this point, Gu Dizi's intention was very clear.
He could yield the Young Emperor position to Empress Lingyuan.
But Empress Lingyuan had to join forces with him to deal with Within Jun Xiaoyao.
Furthermore, in the end, he had to be the one to kill Within Jun Xiaoyao personally to obtain the reward of the Heavenly Dao Wang Guan.
"Is Gu Dizi really going to hand over the Young Emperor position to Sister Empress Lingyuan?" In the distance, Wei Qianqian's rosy little mouth hung open, also appearing unable to believe it.
"I think there might be a few reasons for this," Cang Li said, his gaze deep and flashing with a wise light.
"Firstly, Gu Dizi truly admires Empress Lingyuan; this can be considered a gesture of goodwill toward her."
"Secondly, Gu Dizi truly hates Within Jun Xiaoyao to the core; after all, Within Jun Xiaoyao's bride-snatching caused him to lose all face and become a laughingstock."
"Thirdly, rather than fighting Empress Lingyuan and offending the beauty, it is better for Gu Dizi to eliminate Within Jun Xiaoyao, obtain the Heavenly Dao Wang Guan, and be destined to attain the Dao; the harvest is just as significant."
It must be said that Cang Li's analysis was very reasonable.
The surrounding descendants of the Immortal Lineages all nodded slightly.
Gu Dizi's admiration for Empress Lingyuan was known to everyone.
If they were to fight to the death over the Young Emperor position, that would completely sever any hope of a marriage alliance with Empress Lingyuan.
Rather than that, it would be better to gracefully hand over the Young Emperor position.
Perhaps he could even move the beauty and win her heart.
Gu Dizi's calculations were not shallow.
It was possible to win the beauty, personally eliminate Within Jun Xiaoyao, and also obtain the Heavenly Dao Wang Guan reward.
It was simply killing three birds with one stone!
"How about it, Empress Lingyuan? Do you agree?" Gu Dizi asked Empress Lingyuan with a smile.
A trace of a slightly mocking smile appeared on the corners of Empress Lingyuan's lips.
With her intelligence, how could she not know what Gu Dizi was calculating?
"Kill Within Jun Xiaoyao?" Empress Lingyuan muttered to herself.
For some reason, when the image of Within Jun Xiaoyao in white clothes stained with blood flashed through her mind,
she felt a faint stabbing pain in her heart.
"Damn it, it's that hundred-life karmic debt." Empress Lingyuan furrowed her phoenix brows.
She had tried to sever this hundred-life karmic debt before, but had not succeeded.
Empress Lingyuan hadn't cared at first, but now she realized that this hundred-life karmic debt didn't seem so easy to sever.
"If Within Jun Xiaoyao were to fall, perhaps this influence would be lifted," Empress Lingyuan calculated in her heart.
"Empress Lingyuan, can you not make a decision yet? My sincerity is already sufficient, isn't it?" Gu Dizi said.
"Fine, this palace agrees to you, but... don't think that this palace is afraid of you. If we were to truly compare, you would find it hard to defeat me," Empress Lingyuan said coldly.
Although it appeared that Gu Dizi was yielding,
if they were to truly fight, Gu Dizi might not necessarily be able to defeat Empress Lingyuan and seize the Young Emperor position.
Therefore, Empress Lingyuan naturally would not think that Gu Dizi was yielding to her.
She moved her snow-white, long legs and stepped onto the imprint of the Heavenly Emperor Throne.
Then, she sat down directly.
Boom!
In an instant, the entire Immortal Stele Forest space was filled with surging immortal light and boundless radiance.
Amidst the vast and boundless divine light, Empress Lingyuan sat high upon the imprint of the Heavenly Emperor Throne.
Her pair of snow-white, long legs were crossed, one over the other.
This made the lines of her legs appear even longer and more slender, perfectly incomparable.
Her dark hair floated, and her phoenix eyes held authority.
Her peerlessly beautiful face contained a domineering aura that did not lose to any man, like an invincible female Immortal King of the heavens and earth, her bearing peerless.
"This palace, Empress Lingyuan, shall become the first female Young Emperor in the history of the Immortal Court!"
"Turn the universe, manipulate the heavenly secrets, Nine Great Immortal Lineages, obey my command!"
Empress Lingyuan's cold voice echoed throughout the entire Immortal Stele Forest.
"Fuxi Immortal Lineage, Gu Dizi, pays respects to the Young Emperor." Gu Dizi cupped his hands and smiled slightly.
"Jingwei Immortal Lineage, Wei Qianqian, pays respects to the Young Emperor!" Wei Qianqian also hurried over.
Their Jingwei Immortal Lineage was originally inclined toward the side of the Wahuang Immortal Lineage.
"Cangjie Immortal Lineage, Cang Li, pays respects to the Young Emperor!"
"Shennong Immortal Lineage, Yao Qing, pays respects to the Young Emperor!"
"Xingtian Immortal Lineage, Xing Lu, pays respects to the Young Emperor!"
One by one, the descendants of the Immortal Lineages stepped forward and cupped their hands slightly.
Regardless of what little thoughts they had in their hearts at this moment, on the surface, they all cupped their hands.
Besides them, there were also the geniuses from the various Immortal Lineages who had come to participate in the training, numbering over a thousand, all of whom were dragons and phoenixes among men, the elite of the elite.
"Pay respects to Young Emperor Empress Lingyuan!"
Over a thousand Immortal Lineage geniuses cupped their hands in unison, their voices shaking the nine heavens!
It could be said that at this moment, Empress Lingyuan's prestige had reached its peak!
Looking at the geniuses bowing in unison below, a peerless smile rose on the corners of Empress Lingyuan's lips.
She had done it.
She had become the first female Young Emperor in the history of the Immortal Court.
Perhaps in the future, she could even become the Master of the Immortal Court.
"Rest assured, this palace will definitely rely on the imprint of the Heavenly Emperor Throne to find the true Immortal Artifact, the Heavenly Emperor Throne."
"The day the true Heavenly Emperor Throne reappears in the Immortal Domain will be the time when our Immortal Court ascends to the supreme position once again!" Empress Lingyuan said domineeringly.
"Young Emperor is mighty!" Many geniuses shouted loudly.
Empress Lingyuan was originally the most popular among the descendants of the Nine Great Immortal Lineages.
Now that she had become the Young Emperor, it could be said that more than half of the people were convinced.
Of course, there were also those who stood on Gu Dizi's side.
However, since it was Gu Dizi who had voluntarily yielded, they naturally would not criticize anything.
"Young Emperor, you should know that at the current stage, the most important thing we need to do is to target our enemy, the descendant of the Jun Clan, Within Jun Xiaoyao."
"The Jun Clan's ambition never dies; they have always wanted to replace the position of our Supreme Immortal Court. If we can eliminate the descendant of the Jun Clan later, it will surely serve as a warning to the Jun Clan," Gu Dizi said.
"That's right, the Jun Clan's Son of God is too arrogant; he doesn't put us descendants of the Immortal Lineages in his eyes at all."
"Indeed, Chi Lie of the Chiyou Immortal Lineage was killed by the Jun Clan's Son of God."
"The Jun Clan's Son of God also killed our Immortal Court's Four Little Heavenly Kings."
Gu Dizi's words could be said to have stirred up the crowd.
This group of Immortal Court geniuses had long been unable to stand Within Jun Xiaoyao.
After all, the Immortal Court was used to being high and mighty.
It had always been them bullying others.
This was the first time someone had bullied the Immortal Court.
They were used to being superior to others, so naturally, they didn't like someone being even more high and mighty than them.
But as it happened, the identity of Within Jun Xiaoyao as the Jun Clan's Son of God was truly not weaker than the status of the Immortal Court's Young Emperor.
Within Jun Xiaoyao even had other extremely significant identities, such as the Young Master of the Jiang Clan and the Master of the Jun Emperor Court.
Upon hearing this, a cold light flashed in the depths of Empress Lingyuan's eyes.
Was Gu Dizi afraid that she wouldn't keep her promise?
"Rest assured, this palace will definitely deal with that Within Jun Xiaoyao," Empress Lingyuan said coldly.
Gu Dizi revealed a smile of confidence and said, "Young Emperor, I actually have a plan."
"This plan will definitely be able to completely kill Within Jun Xiaoyao during the ultimate trial!" ===== CHAPTER 818 =====
