Chapter 671 671: Slaying Emperors, Long Time No See
Some expressed opposition, seeking stability, as for many, those who could refine celestial-grade spiritual weapons were terrifying.
Many of them had witnessed the power of celestial-grade spiritual weapons and suffered greatly from it.
Since the Qin Kingdom unified the Celestial Crossing Realm, the Nine Heavens Cultivation Method had started spreading to top forces. With the strength of the families behind the Slaughter Emperor Sect, a decisive attack could deal a heavy blow to the Qin Kingdom.
Yet, until now, they remained hidden in the shadows, and even when they acted, it was on a small scale, not daring to openly declare war against the Qin Kingdom.
This was because the Qin Kingdom held a celestial-grade spiritual weapon, which was so terrifying that if fully activated, it could easily obliterate a Nine Heavens Cultivator.
As long as the Qin Royal Family held that celestial-grade spiritual weapon, their position remained unshakeable.
The Slaughter Emperor Sect assassinated martial artists across the world, causing all forces to be cautious of them; it sounded impressive.
But an unpleasant truth was that they were like rats in the gutter, unable to see the light of day, and once exposed, would be crushed into mincemeat without the ability to fight back.
The families behind the Slaughter Emperor Sect were filled with dread and even a hint of fear towards the celestial-grade spiritual weapon.
Thus, they established the Slaughter Emperor Sect, hoping to use assassination to kill the martial artists of the Qin Royal Family who held the celestial-grade spiritual weapon, giving them a chance to turn the tables in adversity!
"We can cautiously probe this, explore the depths of that Chu Nan; so we know what his actual strength is," someone suggested prudently, proposing to test things first.
Zhi Polang remained silent throughout, although the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall had a blood feud with the Zhi family, he wasn't interested in attacking the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall; for him, developing the Zhi Family Secret Realm was the priority.
He was unwilling to sacrifice his faction for the forces before the unification of the Celestial Crossing Realm by the Qin Kingdom.
The crowd was in lively discussion, as the large number of people led to diverse opinions, with the majority favoring the attack gradually overpowering others.
Amid the heated debate, the First Slaying Emperor suddenly turned towards Bai Youyou and said, "Fourth Slaying Emperor, I heard that you went to Desolate Ancient City a few days ago to assassinate Chu Nan."
"Presumably you have engaged with him, this Slaying Emperor council was your proposal, so speak first about what kind of person Chu Nan is?"
Shhshhshh!
All eyes turned towards Bai Youyou, filled with disbelief. Although many advocated attacking, no one dared to go to Desolate Ancient City to assassinate Chu Nan.
Even though the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall seemed weakened now, one could imagine that those who controlled the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall now were not easy to deal with.
At least a Nine Heavens expert would need to act to have some assurance, yet Bai Youyou dared to go alone.
Even Zhi Polang widened his eyes, thinking Bai Youyou indeed lived up to being an expert at the peak of the Eight Heavens, audaciously attempting to assassinate the master of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall alone and safely returning.
Such strength is truly terrifying.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Bai Youyou, who had been silent, spoke, "Since that is the case, I will speak about the master of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, so everyone can be prepared."
As these words fell, everyone focused intently, even Zhi Polang showing interest.
After all, a strong figure suddenly rising in the Southern Desert, everyone wanted to know what capabilities he had to control the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall.
Only Bai Youyou solemnly said, "I went alone to Desolate Ancient City, lurked for days, and finally encountered that Chu Nan returning, then engaged him."
"That Chu Nan in my view was truly incredible, he seemed youthful, his bone structure should be under twenty!"
At these words, a gasp filled the room, someone questioned, "Fourth Slaying Emperor, are you joking with us? A martial artist under twenty can refine the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall?"
"Why not say that Chu Nan is a reincarnated expert of the Middle Realm?"
Bai Youyou looked at that martial artist, nodded, and said, "Indeed, I genuinely suspect he is a reincarnated expert from the Middle Realm, otherwise, how could he be so formidable."
This statement led to further discussions, dismissive of Bai Youyou's words, only Zhi Polang showing a contemplative expression, for the Chu Nan he knew was also under twenty...
"Silence!" The First Slaying Emperor spoke again, then said to Bai Youyou, "Fourth Slaying Emperor, continue."
Bai Youyou lightly coughed, then said, "Initially, I used stealth, suddenly striking, intending to assassinate him directly; unexpectedly, he easily blocked it."
Everyone nodded silently, seemingly this Chu Nan should be an Eight Heavens martial artist, otherwise, he couldn't have blocked Bai Youyou's assassination.
Following that Bai Youyou continued, "One move failed, I intended to escape, yet was stopped by his subordinate Jiang Meier, also the third Hall Master of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall."
This statement immediately brought skepticism, "Fourth Slaying Emperor, are you joking?"
"I know that little wench Jiang Meier, she's peak Eight Heavens but inherently not adept in combat, whereas you excel in combat, possessing martial skills for stealth and swift retreat, yet were stopped by her?"
Bai Youyou promptly replied, "That Jiang Meier has now reached Nine Heavens; even if I were exceptional, I couldn't escape!"
These words resulted in complete silence.
No one expected Jiang Meier to reach Nine Heavens; the atmosphere around the First Slaying Emperor also grew tense.
The Desolate Ancient Holy Hall had just lost one Emperor Qiu, but suddenly there was Jiang Meier, a Nine Heavens martial artist.
With her alone, eradicating the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall became exceedingly difficult.
At this point, Zhi Polang couldn't sit still, he actively asked, "Since Jiang Meier broke through to Nine Heavens, how did you get back?"
The others realized; indeed, Bai Youyou was merely peak Eight Heavens, surely she couldn't escape Jiang Meier of Nine Heavens?
All eyes focused on Bai Youyou, awaiting an answer.
Bai Youyou then explained, "After being stopped by Jiang Meier, I knew I couldn't win, so I planned to capture that Chu Nan, using him to threaten Jiang Meier to let me go."
The Slayers understood the situation, Bai Youyou relied on using Chu Nan as leverage to escape.
"After that, what about Chu Nan's specific strength, how did you capture him?" Zhi Polang asked.
Bai Youyou shot Zhi Polang a glance, snorted, and said, "Capture hell, that Chu Nan is terrifyingly strong, didn't even employ celestial-grade spiritual weapon, three moves nearly killed me!"
"His sword skill, his fist skill are unparalleled in today's world, mastered four stages of Martial Intent, not less than five kinds, the most genius, most fearsome existence I've seen."
"Even the First Slaying Emperor might have trouble against him."
At these words, everyone frowned, even the First Slaying Emperor felt somewhat annoyed.
"If he's so daunting, why did you still run back?"
"Bai Youyou, a loss is a loss, why embellish through elevating the opponent?"
...
One mocking voice after another sounded, dismissive of Bai Youyou.
Bai Youyou stood up in indignation and said, "You don't believe? You really don't believe?"
"I've brought Chu Nan here, you can fight him personally, see if you believe then!"
Boom!
No sooner had Bai Youyou finished speaking, a massive force suddenly uncovered the roof of the Slaughter Emperor Sect.
Chu Nan rode a Dragon Beast, wielding the Golden Sun Bloodbath Sword, a playful look on his face, "Slayers, long time no see~"
