Chapter 379

"Transmit My Imperial Command."

"Deliver the news to the State Protecting Elders."

"Whether they go or not is up to their own discretion."

The voice was not loud.

It even sounded somewhat languid.

But Shangguan Wan, as her confidante,

heard these words.

Yet her slender frame trembled slightly.

She knew.

Whenever Your Majesty spoke in this tone,

it meant she was serious!

Therefore,

without a moment's thought, she promptly replied.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I shall act at once!"

Saying this,

she bowed respectfully.

Then turned and withdrew.

Qinglong Peak, Qinglong Shanzhuang.

"Has the Nine Provinces finally become lively?"

"I wonder what they'll think when they see Seeing Di Shitian's power?"

He took a small sip of tea.

Ximen Wudi's lips curled into a faint smile.

His deep gaze turned toward the direction of the Sui Dynasty.

Deep in his eyes lingered a hint of amusement.

But soon,

that amusement was replaced by a name.

Li Taibai!!

He suddenly remembered.

When they had been ordered to form teams and travel to the Sui and Han Dynasties,

Li Taibai had chosen the Sui Dynasty team.

Judging by the current stirrings in the Nine Provinces,

without doubt,

the War God Temple's emergence

would be a grand spectacle.

And faced with such an opportunity,

given Li Taibai's nature,

would he let such a perfect chance to shine before the world slip away?!

'Too hasty!!'

He muttered silently in his heart.

Ximen Wudi's lips twitched violently twice.

Just imagining Li Taibai's behavior at that time,

a strange sense of foreboding stirred in his chest.

For a moment,

his brows furrowed slightly.

Even the tea in his hand, he forgot to set down.

Yet,

just then,

hurried footsteps sounded from outside.

Soon, Miss Baoqin hurried in.

"Master, the Seven Dragon Chiefs and the Water God Ancestor request an audience."

Ren Yingying bowed.

Miss Baoqin reported softly.

"Let them in."

Ximen Wudi's expression startled, then he snapped back to awareness.

"Yes, Master."

Miss Baoqin replied.

As she withdrew,

not long after,

Zhang Sanfeng entered slowly, leading the Water God Ancestor.

"Hail, Great Dragon Chief."

Gangyijin Sect.

The Water God Ancestor felt a sudden chill in his spirit.

A great terror, numbing his scalp and sending shivers down his spine, came from the void.

He recalled the other's famed name.

He dared not slacken for a moment.

He bowed hastily in salute.

The manner of his reverence.

Where was the slightest trace of a supreme Mythical Realm powerhouse's bearing!

"No need for such formalities."

"I assume the Great Dragon Head has already conveyed my meaning to you?"

"What is your decision?"

Ximen Wudi waved his hand.

Calmly lowering his gaze, he spoke slowly and steadily.

"Thank you, Great Dragon Head, for your recognition! I am willing to die for you!!"

Without the slightest hesitation.

The Water God Ancestor replied loudly without a moment's thought.

Even though at this moment.

He had not sensed even a shred of aura from Ximen Wudi.

Yet in his heart, he inexplicably sensed a crushing pressure bearing down upon him.

This pressure did not stem from a disparity in strength.

On the contrary.

It resembled more the innate condescension of a superior.

So much so that as his spirit tightened.

He lacked even the courage to meet the other's gaze directly.

Beside him.

Watching his entire performance.

Zhang Sanfeng was speechless, yet also felt a pang of understanding.

What left him speechless was.

When the other faced himself.
