Chapter 1121: There’s Such An Elite In The Empire, Seven Wings Planet Is In Danger

The light barrier of the Spacetime Crystal swept across the entire Imperial Palace.

Within the barrier, even Immortals found it difficult to break free from the restraints of being locked in time and space.

Only the manipulators and those allowed by the manipulators could move freely in the barrier.

That was the trump card for the woman in the black dress and others to assassinate!

Swish, swish, swish!

The woman in the black dress and others excitedly dashed toward Queen Linglong with all sorts of weapons in their hands.

Shortly after, the woman in the black dress noticed something was wrong.

Queen Linglong seemed too calm in the face of the assassination, and her eyes were as indifferent as ever, without the slightest fear.

‘What’s going on?’

‘Could it be that Queen Linglong has a way to escape our assassination?’

‘No. That’s impossible.’

The Spacetime Crystal was so mighty that it could only be utilized once. Even the Ninth-grade Immortals and Earthen Immortals would not be able to break free from its control.

They had done an investigation to find that the strongest in the entire Firmament Empire were the Earthen Immortals, who could not stop them at all.

Hundred kilometers, ten kilometers, one kilometer…

It was about to succeed.

The woman in the black dress was delighted.

However, she and the others suddenly became terrified when they noticed that they were locked in mid-air and could not move!

‘What’s happening?’

“The spacetime… It has been locked!”

Being the Spacetime Crystal’s manipulator, the woman in the black dress was keenly aware of something and knew how terrifying the matter was.

Someone had locked the spacetime again under the Spacetime Crystal’s spacetime energy!

‘Just how terrifying is the person’s spacetime energy to perform such an act?!’

She dared not even think about doing such a thing.

Further away, a figure in robes as white as snow walked slowly into the palace.

As he walked past the Spacetime Crystal, he pointed at it. In a split second, the Spacetime Crystal, in which half of its spacetime energy had been depleted, cracked and shattered into pieces.

Spit!

Having taken the brunt of the impact, the Spacetime Crystal’s manipulator cum woman in black dress spit a mouthful of blood, and her face was as pale as paper.

“Who is it?!”

The Seven Wings Planet’s messengers wondered too.

They felt a bone-piercing coldness, as if their bodies had been entangled by a poisonous snake, and they could not help shivering.

An unprecedented fear overwhelmed them.

“How foolish.” Chu Kuangren approached them and said.

Following that, they saw a sword ray gush out from his fingertips and covered their vision.

Shortly after, the woman in the black dress witnessed her companions’ bodies engulfed in the sword ray and turned into countless blood-colored orbs that dissipated. To her surprise, the sword ray disintegrated them!

‘D*mn it!’

‘I can’t believe such a terrifying existence exists in the Empire!’

‘What exactly is going on?!’

The woman in the black dress was horrified.

At that moment, a white light beam that had a majestic might approached from afar and smashed toward Chu Kuangren.

“Oh.”

Chu Kuangren eeked and knocked down the light beam.

Meanwhile, the spacetime energy that enveloped the surroundings dissipated.

“An opportunity!” The woman in the black dress flew toward the distance immediately after breaking free from the shackle of the spacetime energy.

Unfortunately, she did not notice that a violet sword ray had shot across the void and silently entered her body.

“D*mn it!”

“How dare you assassinate the Queen!”

Having recovered, the furious crowd wanted to hunt down the woman in the black dress. However, a white-clothed figure dashed out and blocked them with light beams created by a white mirror.

“It’s Tian Jingzi!”

“Hmph. Isn’t this traitor dead yet?!”

The crowd glared at the person who had come.

Tian Jingzi was Heavenly Mirror Orthodoxy Ruler and also a traitor who colluded with the Seven Wings Planet as investigated by Gu Linglong.

“Let’s get out of here!”

Tian Jingzi grabbed the woman in the black dress. Then, the mirror in his hand radiated with mysterious brilliance and led them into the void.

Chaos Daoist Celestial and others were about to hunt them down.

“Forget about chasing them.”

Just then, an indifferent voice sounded.

It was Chu Kuangren who spoke.

In the grand pagoda, some people looked at Chu Kuangren with suspicion and wariness.

After all, most of them were newcomers to the Empire.

One of them stood up, looked at Chu Kuangren, and asked, “Who are you, and why are you here?”

Before he could figure it out, a few people dashed toward Chu Kuangren excitedly.

That scene made everyone even more puzzled because those people were not of low status. They were all veterans, such as the Chaos Daoist Celestial, Luo Shui, Sword Daoist Celestial…

Even Gu Linglong treated Chu Kuangren with courtesy.

No one had ever seen those people lose control of their emotions. Yet now, they were all so excited in front of the person. Their eyes were filled with joy and admiration.

Some people already had a rough idea of who the person was.

“King, when did you come back?” asked Chaos Daoist Celestial excitedly.

King…

Everyone took a deep breath upon hearing the title. They knew that besides a queen, the Empire had a king, the founder of the Firmament Empire. However, most newcomers had only heard about him from rumors and never seen him before.

Now that the legendary figure was standing before them, they found it unbelievable.

“Sure enough…” Some people were amazed.

Besides the rumored King, who else could make Chaos Daoist Celestial, Luo Shui, and others so excited?

“When the King’s guards, Lan Yu, Chu Hong, and Shang Honghua suddenly returned two years ago, some people speculated that the King had also returned. However, he was never seen, and the speculation was inconclusive.”

“Now, it seems like the King has returned for real.”

Some newcomers who had only heard of Chu Kuangren in the rumors secretly thought to themselves as they looked at him with curiosity in their eyes.

‘What kind of outstanding character could create such a huge Empire and receive the respect of Chaos Daoist Celestial, Luo Shui, and others?’

“Welcome back, King.”

After the Chaos Daoist Celestial calmed down, he took a few steps back, bowed, and made a fist salute. The rest did the same too.

Seeing that the veterans had done so, the rest of the people also followed suit, greeting Chu Kuangren’s return with a fist salute.

“Please, stand,” said Chu Kuangren. Then, he kept the Chaos Daoist Celestial and other people he knew with him and dismissed the others.

“King, you’ve been hiding your return from us, and so has Lan Yu and the rest. You should’ve told us that you’re back,” complained Luo Shui.

Chu Kuangren chuckled. “Heh, I didn’t want to create a scene. If it weren’t because Linglong was in danger, I probably wouldn’t have appeared, and I would continue to be Master Chu in the Heavenly Will Pavillion.”

“So Master Chu is the King.”

“As I’ve said, how could the Queen entrust a strange cultivator with an important task?”

“By the way, King, how are you planning to deal with the Seven Wings Planet?” asked the Chaos Daoist Celestial.

Everyone recalled that it was Chu Kuangren who stopped their enemy from hunting them.

“Leave the matter to me. All of you shall continue helping Linglong manage the Empire,” said Chu Kuangren as he looked coldly into the distance.

Seven Wings Planet was in… danger!
