Chapter 498

~15 min read 2,966 words

Xu Jin originally thought that after this Grand Steward Wei of the Inner Court used this excuse to keep him, he should have brought him to a side hall or something.

But he didn't expect that he would actually bring him to the dungeon inside the Da Hong Imperial Palace.

Or rather, the dungeon of the Nine Winds Department of Da Hong.

This action alone made Xu Jin's heart settle.

This shows that even inside the Imperial Palace, the Emperor of Da Hong was still guarding against the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought him to the dungeon.

The more these two guarded against each other, the higher the success rate of Xu Jin's plan to snatch chestnuts from the fire.

A quarter of an hour later, after many twists and turns, Wei Zhong brought Xu Jin to a relatively clean and tidy cell in the dungeon; after bringing Xu Jin in, he closed the door.

Xu Jin was stunned.

This made him a bit unable to understand.

But Xu Jin immediately sensed that Wei Zhong was still guarding outside the cell, and his heart settled down.

The more cautious the Emperor of Da Hong was, the greater his advantage.

A few breaths later, a door suddenly flipped out on the wall on the other side of the cell, and the Emperor of Da Hong, who had changed into a different outfit, stared at Xu Jin with gloomy eyes and stepped in slowly.

At the same moment, starlight rose, and in the starlight, it was even mixed with spatial star power, isolating everything.

Even the spatial teleportation star technique was isolated.

That is to say, if the Emperor of Da Hong and Wei Zhong were to silence Xu Jin, the probability of success would be quite high.

One Eighth Tier late-stage expert, one Eighth Tier peak expert.

Even if Xu Jin used all his special powers, he wouldn't be able to escape.

However, with the Seven Kill Iron Wood Sword by his side, Xu Jin still had some chance of survival.

"Xu Jin, what past events of Luomei Manor?

You actually have a relationship with the remnants of the Blood God Sect in Luomei Manor!

If you confess honestly, I will spare your life today!

Otherwise!

Even if I tear your skin and pull your bones today, and scatter your ashes and search your soul, Cheng Yuexiao will know nothing and won't be able to save you." The Emperor of Da Hong shouted fiercely as soon as they met.

Seeing this, Xu Jin's eyes widened, and suddenly he was amused.

He pulled over a chair, leaned back, hugged the Seven Kill Iron Wood Sword, leaned on the chair, and smiled, "Your Majesty, if you say so, why don't you just do it directly and kill me.

Why waste your breath!"

Yang Yun, the Emperor of Da Hong, looked at Xu Jin with a gloomy expression, "Xu Jin, don't think that I have no way to deal with you!

This is my territory; as long as I capture you alive and control your Primordial Spirit, I will know all the answers, and all problems will be solved."

Hearing this, Xu Jin shook his head with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I have already seen your death soldiers.

To be honest, this is my first time seeing Eighth Tier death soldiers.

To protect you, Your Majesty, they said they would burn their Primordial Spirit and they did; they are decisive enough!

Da Hong has many righteous men!

However, Da Hong has many righteous men!

My Da Chen is not lacking in patriots either!

To be honest, before stepping into the court today, I was prepared to be carried out horizontally!

Or perhaps, without a corpse left!

As for Primordial Spirit control?

Burning the Primordial Spirit, I can do that too!" Xu Jin smiled, showing a mouthful of big white teeth.

That smile looked like an indescribable sense of helplessness to the Emperor of Da Hong.

The intimidation and bluffing just now were his last means.

"Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, before I came, I had already communicated with the National Preceptor!

An hour later, if I haven't walked out of the Da Hong Imperial Palace, the National Preceptor will act according to the plan." Xu Jin said.

"What plan?"

"Your Majesty should be clear that the National Preceptor also participated in the discovery of the Blood God Sect remnants in Luomei Manor, and was the first to go.

At that time, the National Preceptor will convey some evidence and discoveries to the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang!

I think the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang should be very happy.

Because he will immediately be able to find the high-level Blood God Sect members hidden inside that he has been looking for for a long time and couldn't find.

It is said to be a deputy sect leader of the Blood God Sect with high power and status." Xu Jin smiled.

In the sensing of the Bright Era Star Pattern, Xu Jin could sense that the Emperor of Da Hong's breathing had obviously become heavier.

"Ridiculous!"

The Emperor of Da Hong sneered, "Do you think the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang will believe that there are Blood God Sect remnants hidden in my Imperial Palace?

The Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang will absolutely not believe it!"

Hearing this, Xu Jin shook his head again, "Alright, Your Majesty, no need to act! Whether the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang will believe it, you know better than me!

Don't say there is evidence.

Even if there is a trace of speculation pointing to Your Majesty, I am afraid the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang will also be suspicious.

He will not stop until he digs it out!

If Your Majesty continues like this, it will be meaningless.

Your Majesty should deal with me or release me as soon as possible."

The Emperor of Da Hong's nasal breathing obviously became heavier.

As the Emperor of Da Hong, although there was still the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang above his head, when had he ever been threatened like this?

The anger can be imagined.

But he didn't dare to take action.

Just as Xu Jin said, he knew it too well!

Don't say there is evidence, as long as there is a little suspicion, the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang will definitely make a big fuss.

The Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang's desire for control is too strong.

So strong that he, the Emperor, was extremely careful even in his own Imperial Palace.

As for dealing with Xu Jin?

He had thought of many methods before.

The only safe one was to control the Primordial Spirit and control Xu Jin's life and death, which might be able to suppress this matter.

But Xu Jin's attitude was so firm.

It made him not dare to gamble!

Once Cheng Yuexiao was really allowed to contact the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang, his hard work and forbearance for half his life would all be finished.

For a long time, the Emperor of Da Hong pulled a chair and sat down slowly, "Speak, what exactly do you want to do."

As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Jin's heart immediately relaxed.

It worked!

Although the Emperor of Da Hong didn't admit it, his butt was very honest.

This could already be considered as letting Xu Jin set conditions.

"Your Majesty, I want to go to Blood Moon City, and I want you to arrange a suitable identity for me that can move freely, the kind that doesn't need to have my Primordial Spirit controlled by the high-level officials of Blood Moon City." Xu Jin said.

This time, the Emperor of Da Hong didn't say anything, but looked at Xu Jin, his expression extremely complex.

After a long time, he said, "It seems that you are quite knowledgeable about the Blood God Sect."

"Not as much as Your Majesty."

The Emperor of Da Hong was speechless.

"Can't do it." The Emperor of Da Hong refused directly.

"It seems that I can only die here today." Xu Jin smiled, although he was smiling, his expression was extremely firm.

The Emperor of Da Hong stared at Xu Jin; he was also making a final test, and also communicating with Grand Steward Wei outside the door.

To see if there was a way to solve it.

After discussing for a long time, the result obtained was—unsolvable!

Xu Jin was easy to solve.

The person was already on their territory.

But Cheng Yuexiao, couldn't be solved.

This was a dead knot.

The combat power of Da Chen National Preceptor Cheng Yuexiao, they had seen it last time; it was much more powerful than they imagined.

Don't say Cheng Yuexiao was in Da Chen; even if he left Da Chen, they couldn't solve it.

Then there was one more person who might be able to solve the problem, and that was the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang.

But the problem was, they didn't have the ability to solve the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang either.

If they couldn't solve these problems, they would be solved by the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang.

This was in a situation of head-on collision.

Since there was no chance of winning in a head-on collision, they could only compromise. Although the Emperor of Da Hong extremely disliked compromise, over the years, he had used it countless times.

"The Eight Desolations Continent and the Star River Battlefield have just bordered, and the star field force field is shaking endlessly; before the star field force field stabilizes, I cannot send you over." The Emperor of Da Hong finally relented.

"I can wait." Xu Jin said.

"But I need to know what you are going there for! I only have a little business dealings with that side, similar to a merchant caravan." The Emperor of Da Hong was still trying his best to make up for it, not wanting to give others a handle.

"There is a secret matter I need to investigate."

"What matter?" The Emperor of Da Hong pursued.

"Your Majesty, do I dare to tell you?"

Xu Jin said bluntly, "Your Majesty, but there is one thing you can be sure of: with my cultivation, going there is dancing on the tip of a knife; I am just investigating a secret matter that is very important to me and will not endanger the safety of the Blood God Sect.

As long as I go over, it will not endanger your safety even more." Xu Jin said.

"Empty words!

I cannot believe your guarantee." The Emperor of Da Hong said.

"Your Majesty, if I go there, you know my true identity; to tell you the truth, my little life is in your hands.

Otherwise, you only need to send one message.

In the Eight Desolations Continent, I will be an enemy of the whole world and will die without a burial place in an instant.

Me going there is the greatest guarantee for Your Majesty." Xu Jin said.

The Emperor of Da Hong fell into silence again, probably discussing with Grand Steward Wei.

After a while, he nodded helplessly.

"When do you want to go, how many people?

How long will you stay?

What are the requirements for the specific identity?" The Emperor of Da Hong asked.

"The sooner the better.

Just me alone!

As for the identity, Your Majesty, you can arrange it as you see fit.

The identity cannot be low; it must be a bit higher, otherwise it won't be free; it's best to be the kind that is on equal footing with the Blood God Sect elders." Xu Jin said.

"On equal footing with the Blood God Sect elders?"

The Emperor of Da Hong sneered, "Why don't you arrange it yourself; I don't have this ability."

"Half a level lower is fine!

But it must be independent and autonomous, and I can act freely." Xu Jin said.

"Can't do it!" The Emperor of Da Hong said coldly.

"That is Your Majesty's business!

Otherwise, even if I go, it will be like sending myself to death!

It would be better to perish together right now!" Xu Jin said.

In an instant, Xu Jin's words silenced the Emperor of Da Hong.

In his life, he had only been threatened by the Tianyang Xingjun of Tianyang.

Now, there was one more person!

After a long silence, the Emperor of Da Hong calmed his emotions.

"Complete freedom is impossible, but a certain degree of freedom can be achieved." The Emperor of Da Hong said.

"Okay."

This time, Xu Jin agreed very readily.

Even if he held the other party's handle, he couldn't threaten too much.

"Then wait for news! When the star field force field between the Eight Desolations Continent and the Star River Battlefield stabilizes, I will notify you; it shouldn't exceed a month." While speaking, the Emperor of Da Hong threw a Mandarin Seal to Xu Jin, "Use this to contact me in the future.

Also, tell your National Preceptor.

Matters of catching shadows will have some impact on me.

But you, Xu Jin, will definitely die."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, my life is very precious.

To tell you the truth, if there are no accidents, I am the successor to the future Da Chen National Preceptor." Xu Jin took the initiative to expose his identity, which could be considered giving the Emperor of Da Hong a reassurance.

If Xu Jin were a small pawn with a simple identity who could be sacrificed at any time, then what could be used to threaten Cheng Yuexiao?

If the matter was accomplished, then Cheng Yuexiao could sacrifice Xu Jin at any time to make Da Hong's domestic situation turbulent and achieve strategic goals.

"Is this true?"

Sure enough, the Emperor of Da Hong was overjoyed.

His biggest worry before was that Xu Jin's weight was too light.

Compared to him, it was the difference between an egg and a gemstone.

Breaking ten thousand eggs wouldn't equal the price of one gemstone.

"Your Majesty, your Nine Winds Department should have my data, right?

The youngest Vice Academician in Da Chen's history.

I am Da Chen's peerless genius!

The youngest Fifth Tier powerhouse in Da Chen's history.

The youngest Sixth Tier powerhouse in Da Chen's history.

In the future, I will also be the youngest Seventh Tier powerhouse in Da Chen's history.

This treatment, and my combat power.

Don't they all explain everything?

Look, how many Sixth Tier experts can have a high-grade Seven-Star Spirit Treasure Armor?

There aren't many Seventh Tier experts who have Seven-Star Spirit Armor, right?" Xu Jin shook his shoulder, and the high-grade Seven-Star Spirit Armor appeared; at the same moment, the Seven-Star Spirit Sword and Seven-Star Spirit Shield appeared one by one in the starlight, flashing by.

"But I have a complete set here."

This display made the Emperor of Da Hong's eyes widen suddenly.

A complete set of Seven-Star Spirit Treasures, let alone the Seventh Tier, even ordinary Eighth Tier experts don't have them.

But this Xu Jin, a Sixth Tier expert, actually had a complete set of Seven-Star Spirit Treasures.

In an instant, the Emperor of Da Hong believed it.

If Cheng Yuexiao didn't value Xu Jin's safety extremely highly, it would be impossible to equip Xu Jin with a complete set of Seven-Star Spirit Treasures.

Immediately, the Emperor of Da Hong's worry dissipated by half; at least the chips in his hand were quite valuable.

Before Xu Jin returned from the Eight Desolations Continent in the future, he would be safe.

"Wei Zhong, send him back."

While speaking, the Emperor of Da Hong had already disappeared from the dungeon.

And Xu Jin was taken by Grand Steward Wei, and under the witness of many eunuchs and guards, he came out of the dungeon and was sent out of the Imperial Palace.

Not long after Xu Jin left the Imperial Palace, Wei Zhong, the Grand Steward of the Inner Court of Da Hong, returned to the Quiet Heart Hall where the Emperor of Da Hong was cultivating for the first time.

The monarch and subject faced each other, silent for a long time.

"Your Majesty, it seems we have to execute that plan."

"Sigh!"

The Emperor of Da Hong sighed for a long time, "I didn't expect that the exposure of Luomei Manor would have such a huge impact.

If I had known the impact would be so huge, I wouldn't have gone in the first place.

Lost is lost.

Isn't it just a Sixth Tier star field!

Now, Cheng Yuexiao might explode this thunder to Tianyang at any time, especially after this kid finishes his business, which is the most dangerous moment."

"Your Majesty, regret is useless.

If Your Majesty wants to execute that plan, there are too many things to prepare and do!

The time left for us is not much.

It's just that this Xu Jin going to Blood Moon City can still buy me some time, otherwise, I'm afraid..." While speaking, a look of panic had already appeared on Wei Zhong's face.

The next instant, a look of determination had already appeared on the Emperor of Da Hong's face, "Then let's start executing it! That plan, I thought I wouldn't use it in this life, but I didn't expect that I would end up using it after all."

Speaking of this, the Emperor of Da Hong's expression became extremely vicious, "This Xu Jin has ruined my major event!

Making me execute that plan.

If there is a chance, I will definitely make him die without a burial place!

Detain his Primordial Spirit, refine him into a blood puppet, and burn him day and night, only then can I vent the hatred in my heart!"
