Chapter 1561: Chapter 950: Undercurrents Stirring (Part 3)

Who would have thought that the Jianghu rumors, which were initially just hearsay, would turn out to be even more accurate than the first-hand information they got from the Crown Prince’s Guard!

“Haha, I’m just a minor son of a Marquis Mansion, not qualified to host such distinguished guests.”

Meng Qi grinned. Actually, it’s better this way; it saves him a lot of trouble.

“Nonsense! Ziyan just returned home, and your elder brother’s head illness makes him unsuitable to inherit the title. I was planning to establish your status!”

Su Li was decisive and spoke without hesitation.

In fact, he was more inclined towards his second son. After all, he is his own child, much better than adopting one from the fifth to inherit.

However, it was hard to get past his wife, and now that the fifth is the strongest master of the Su Family, the pressure was immense.

With this turn of events, everything naturally fell into place!

Su Li’s words made Ke Weilan and ‘Golden Eye Constable’ Su Yue change their expressions slightly.

This is a hereditary title!

Su Family’s ancestors earned it through great merit in protecting the ruler.

Because the eldest son had a hidden ailment, internal conflicts over the title were numerous and persistent.

The young ‘Su Ziyan’ was sent to Shaolin at a young age to avoid this whirlpool.

Now, this first return of the minor son, and on the first day, Su Li is using momentum to forcibly establish his claim!

“Hoh, does that mean we should call you Little Marquis from now on?”

Tao Yu teased as he glanced at Meng Qi.

“What Little Marquis? What benefit do these mundane titles bring me? Five generations ago, when my ancestors were honored for their merits in protecting the ruler, Senior Chong He had already begun wandering the Jianghu. We martial artists pursue the freedom of roaming the azure depths and existing eternally; these mundane titles are nothing but fleeting smoke.”

Meng Qi wanted no part in such trivial and bothersome affairs and wished to avoid it all costs!

The title fiercely contested by many was now cast aside as worthless, causing the Su Family members present to feel a little dazed.

Some even felt humiliated.

But before their humiliation took form, Tao Yu casually waved his hand

“Naturally, this Qionghua Banquet was my initiative, so let’s refrain from all these unnecessary flamboyances. Now that the people are mostly here, let’s inform the Royal Family to lend us a venue tomorrow to start. I’m pretty straightforward.”

Tao Yu finished, glancing at the dumbfounded Su Li

“It’s decided.”

This was merely a notification of the decision; Tao Yu had no intention of seeking their opinions.

The weather in the Divine Capital was stormy, and Tao Yu didn’t want his plans interrupted unexpectedly…

——

In the outskirts of the Divine Capital, due to the city’s timber demands, over the years, there were barren mountains stripped of trees, except for a few royal parks.

Woodsmen had to travel far for firewood.

And in one of these inconspicuous barren hills, a few secretive Talismans were pasted outside an abandoned mine.

Several figures met here, one of whom was wearing a lifelike Heavenly Emperor mask!

“Hmph, always mysterious and unwilling to show face, yet invites us here; quite bold.”

A blood-red shadow sneered; even though he restrained it, his laughter easily stirred the surrounding blood waves.

It was the Blood Sea Rakshasa of the Blood Robe Sect, ranked tenth on the Heavenly List!

“If I hadn’t helped you before, your reincarnated spiritual child would have had issues.”

Han Guang smiled slightly. It was this action that earned him a little trust and maintained the current situation.

“Though we gather three Dharma Bodies, I don’t believe those sanctimonious ones won’t prepare for this Supreme Divine Skill! It’s said to gather the young generation, but who knows if it’s a trap to lure us out, making escape difficult.”

The Great Asura of Shura Temple, Meng Nan, also coldly snorted at this moment.

The Righteous Path was strong; not only did they have more Dharma Body experts, but they were generally more powerful.

After Demon Master Han Guang was suppressed, only Guldo, with the Heavenly Punishment Axe, could slightly divert their attention.

In such circumstances, what good could their trio from the lower Heavenly List, plus a mysterious Dharma Body, do?

“Haha, you’re right. Shaolin’s ‘Kong Wen,’ Chunyang Sect’s ‘Chong He,’ and Cui Family’s ‘Cui Qinghe’ have all arrived near the Divine Capital, not to mention the Divine Capital Array. If it were just us, a battle would indeed be unfavorable.”

Han Guang grinned.

“Your information is well-informed, but knowing this, why take the risk? If the Divine Skill appeared elsewhere, we might have a chance, but here in the Divine Capital, there’s truly no way.”

Being of the Evil Path and weak, coupled with the Divine Capital Array, how could they fight?

“I also sought this Primordial Inheritor for long, but unfortunately, he was cautious and got away.”

Meng Nan sneered coldly.

Involving the six-style Supreme Skill, even without the True Intent Inheritance, was enough to tempt the Dharma Bodies!

The key is if not stopped, the Righteous Path obtaining these would only grow more arrogant.

“It’s fortunate you didn’t find him, or you might not have escaped with your strength.”

At this moment, another cold voice appeared.

The World-crossing Dharma King emerged from the Vacuum Home, appearing at the scene.

This demon, ranked the highest on the Heavenly List, besides Guldo, also instilled some fear in Meng Nan, who then coldly snorted and said
