C3709 Trouble at the Imperial Palace



C3709 Trouble at the Imperial Palace

Because the difference between the Foundation Establishment stage and the Golden Core stage was too great, to the point that unless one used some sort of treasure like a teleportation talisman, otherwise, no matter what kind of strength a Foundation Establishment cultivator possessed, it was absolutely impossible to escape from the hands of a Golden Core cultivator.    

    

The black-robed man trembled. It was unknown whether it was fear or anger, but he had actually misjudged Jiang Ting's cultivation.    

    

Three breaths of time later.    

    

"It seems like you don't want to say it?" Jiang Ting slowly walked towards the black-robed man.    

    

He knew magic like soul searching. With his cultivation level, soul searching was only at the Foundation Establishment stage. It was simply too easy.    

    

"Damn it..." The black-robed man looked at Jiang Ting hatefully with a pair of blood-red eyes.    

    

After that... the aura around the black-robed man dissipated, and he fell to the ground.    

    

"Bang!" The black-robed man, who had fallen to the ground in a daze, caused a large amount of dust to fly into the air.    

    

As soon as he reached the end, the black-robed man's body broke into pieces and turned into a pile of minced meat.    

    

Dead.    

    

Self-destruction.    

    

Jiang Ting's brows instantly lit up. "Interesting."    

    

Then, the corner of his mouth rose. "Is there any use in committing suicide?"    

    

Humans had souls and bodies.    

    

If one's body died, as long as one's soul was not completely destroyed, under normal circumstances, one's soul would enter the netherworld and enter the cycle of reincarnation.    

    

Under extraordinary circumstances... Even if one died, one's consciousness would always be awake, and it would be able to resist the attraction of the Netherworld, and it would be inferior to the Netherworld.    

    

Or perhaps others would help resist the guidance and capture the soul so that it wouldn't be able to enter the Netherworld.    

    

At this moment, Jiang Ting's interest was piqued. He didn't mind capturing the divine soul.    

    

However... half a breath later.    

    

Jiang Ting frowned slightly. He did not have a divine soul.    

    

Under the observation of his divine sense, after that person died... there was no trace of the aura of a divine soul. Furthermore, after he walked in, he discovered that there was no aura of a divine soul that was compatible with this person's body.    

    

He also found that the pile of broken flesh in front of him was slightly stinky, as if it had been dead for a long time.    

    

If it was a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator, he might not be able to make heads or tails of it.    

    

However, Jiang Ting only needed to look at it for a while to know the answer.    

    

The person just now... was probably just a puppet.    

    

A certain early Golden Core Realm cultivator had used a wisp of his soul power to destroy his consciousness, seize his body, and then forcibly absorb his cultivation base to come here and kill him.    

    

Did he have a grudge against Jiang Ting?    

    

Impossible. If he wanted to kill him, no matter what kind of person he was, at the very least, he would need to have a cultivation base no lower than his own. It would be a joke to take away a mortal's body and bring a Foundation Establishment cultivation base to kill him.    

    

In other words, although the person behind the scenes who had come to kill him did not have a low cultivation base, he did not know his identity.    

    

After coming here, he didn't have any enmity with anyone... perhaps there was someone who wanted to deal with Zenith Palace or Qingyang, but he, Jiang Ting, had only been implicated here.    

    

After thinking this through, Jiang Ting let out an inexplicable laugh. "Interesting..."    

    

After saying this, Jiang Ting turned around and returned to the courtyard.    

    

He had no interest in going. He wanted to find out who was causing trouble for Emperor Zenith Palace, nor was he interested in finding out who was behind all of this. As long as the person was smart enough, they wouldn't come and provoke him.    

    

After returning to the courtyard, a gentle breeze blew past and the corpse on the ground silently turned to dust.    

    

In less than three breaths of time.    

    

Jiang Ting, who had just returned to the courtyard and continued adding attribute spirits to his body, suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the place where his corpse had been destroyed.    

    

As he channeled the power of heaven and earth, he suddenly sensed a vague devil Qi dissipating from the corpse that he had destroyed.    

    

The demonic Qi here was not demonic Qi from the Devil Dao, but... the demonic Qi of a purebred Devil Race like the Yin Devil Race. It was not the demonic Qi from this realm.    

    

Looking at the empty place, Jiang Ting's eyes revealed a hint of coldness.    

    

There should only be three devils in this place... Yin Devils, Yan Yu, Huan Ling.    

    

According to what he knew, Huan Ling and Yan Yu had been brought back to the ocean by the Ice Flame Scarlet Flood Dragon and Goat Dragon Beast who had regained consciousness. What awaited them was probably an extremely miserable torture.    

    

Only the Yin Devils had disappeared.    

    

Could it be that the Yin Devil had coincidentally appeared here?    

    

That shouldn't be the case... The Yin Devil had lost its kin, and it was said that it was chased by the Ice Flame Scarlet Snake Dragon and the Goat Dragon Beast back then. It was said that its soul was almost destroyed, and it managed to escape with great difficulty. If it didn't hide properly, would it still dare to appear in the world?    

    

Moreover, when they used their techniques, there was actually such a bright devilish energy that couldn't be concealed from the power of heaven and earth... Were they worried that they wouldn't die fast enough?    

    

Or was it that other than the Yin Devils and the other two devils, there were also other demons that had escaped the Demon Sealing Secret Realm? Or perhaps... Yan Yu and Huan Ling had escaped from the hands of the Ice Flame Scarlet Dragon and the Goat Dragon Beast?    

    

"They killed someone..."    

    

"Someone come quickly, there's an assassin!"    

    

"Wuwu, Brother Wu, you died so tragically..."    

    

Panic and shrill cries suddenly rang out in the distance.    

    

Jiang Ting, who was still deep in thought, suddenly raised his head and looked over... It was black, and he could not see anything.    

    

However, it was as easy as turning his hand to the sound.    

    

The place where the voices came from... If he remembered correctly, it seemed to be the temporary residence of those congratulatory people.    

    

The others did not receive the treatment of Jiang Ting and Zhu Yuan. Those people were all gathered together at a specially opened mountain peak. There were many people there.    

    

At the very least, almost all of the major and minor influences near Emperor Zenith Palace had sent their Foundation Establishment representatives to congratulate them. In addition to some rogue cultivators passing by, there were probably several hundred people congratulating them.    

    

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Ting lifted his foot and walked in the direction of the voice. At the same time, large fireballs rose into the air one after another, illuminating the vast sky.    

    

About half a mile away, at the foot of the mountain, there were many newly-constructed courtyards as well as some short houses.    

    

When Jiang Ting arrived,    

    

outside the courtyards and the short houses, there were many people. Almost all of them were at the Foundation Establishment stage, and there were only a few at the Golden Core stage.    

    

Those people were looking around, and their eyes were filled with fear. There were even a few people whose faces were pale, and there were a few bloody holes on their bodies. They had obviously been severely injured by the attack.    

    

Jiang Ting wasn't the only one who had been attacked.    

    

"Where did the assassin come from?"    

    

"Brother Li, how are your injuries?"    

    

"Damn it, who dares to attack us at Emperor Zenith Palace? Aren't they afraid that many Golden Core seniors will get angry...?"    

    

With so many people present, their courage was bolstered. The sounds of chats and groans of pain constantly echoed in this place.    

    

After sizing them up, Jiang Ting didn't go forward. He simply followed them outside, maintaining a low profile as he maintained his Foundation Establishment cultivation.    

    

About five breaths later.    

    

"What's going on?" Accompanied by a somewhat aged voice that was filled with anger.    

    

The main character of the upcoming birthday, the Azure Sun King, appeared along with the breeze.    

    

At the same time, Zhu Yuan arrived.    

    

When Zhu Yuan arrived, he saw Jiang Ting at first glance. He was just about to greet him when he saw Jiang Ting shaking his head slightly. Suddenly, his voice, which was about to say something, was forcefully suppressed.    

    

"Brother Zhu, what happened to you?" When the Azure Sun King saw Zhu Yuan's unusual behavior, he hurriedly asked.    

    

"Nothing."    

    

Zhu Yuan shook his head in denial before asking, "Brother Qingyang, what's going on?"    

    

Someone had suddenly killed someone here... It was aimed at the person who had come to congratulate him, and perhaps only the Azure Yang King could explain the reason.
