Eternal Sacred King

Chapter 2427 - 2427 Five City Lords



2427 Five City Lords

In the City Lord’s residence, Su Zimo and Lin Luo had their own troubles and did not say anything the entire night.

The next morning, footsteps sounded from outside.

Su Zimo and Lin Luo exchanged glances and stood up to push the door open. Standing at the entrance were Jiang Xuanyou and a group of Imperial Army soldiers under his lead.

“The two of you, follow me.”

Jiang Xuanyou said and led the way.

Su Zimo and Lin Luo followed behind and walked for a while in the City Lord’s residence before arriving at a gigantic palace.

The design of the palace was a little strange—it was hollow in the middle. From the outside, one could see the center of the palace where the tip of an Immortal Peach Tree was exposed.

Under Jiang Xuanyou’s lead, Su Zimo and Lin Luo entered the hall.

The hall was noisy and bustling. At a glance, thousands of cultivators were gathered and discussing.

Most importantly, the thousands of cultivators had powerful auras and were all Perfected Immortal experts!

For the Blood Peach Banquet this time round, Song Xuan invited most of the Perfected Immortals in the five cities and it was a grand scene.

Thousands of Perfected Immortal experts were in the hall. Even if they did nothing, they would form an invisible and powerful aura!

Given such a situation, any Heaven Immortal that appeared here would inevitably feel intimidated.

The Imperial Army soldiers who were Heaven Immortals behind Jiang Xuanyou did not dare to advance at all with fearful expressions.

Jiang Xuanyou sneered internally and looked towards Su Zimo and Lin Luo behind him, wanting to see the two of them embarrass themselves.

However, the outcome disappointed him.

Lin Luo had a calm expression—it was as though such a lineup could not suppress this young girl.

Jiang Xuanyou thought about it.

After all, Lin Luo was the daughter of an Immortal King and had followed him all year round. Naturally, she was experienced and knowledgeable. It was understandable that she had a strong will and a stable Dao Heart.

What puzzled him was why Su Zimo was so calm and composed as well.

Although this lad was from Heaven and Earth Academy, he was only a Grade 5 Heaven Immortal. How could an outer sect disciple deal with such a situation?

At the front of the crowd stood five people.

One of them was Song Xuan, the City Lord of Langfeng City.

Jiang Xuanyou led Su Zimo and Lin Luo over. Through the crowd, he could see that the peaches on the Immortal Peach Tree had already formed with blood vessels and swayed slightly in a strange manner.

“Brother Song, it’s all thanks to you that I’m lucky enough to get the chance to taste a variant blood peach this time round.”

Among the five of them, a man in blue robes on the left had shoulder-length hair and waved a folding fan made of jade as he chuckled.

“No problem.”

Song Xuan said, “I’m naturally not going to enjoy a variant of such quality alone. The first people I thought of were the four of you.”

The other four smiled and expressed their thanks.

Lin Luo sent a voice transmission to Su Zimo’s spirit consciousness, “The other four are the City Lords of the remaining four cities of the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain.”

“The blue-robed man on the outer left is the City Lord of Qionghua City. People call him Young Master Lan Tian.”

“The tall one on the left is the City Lord of Xuanpu City, Hong Shan.”

“The person in the middle is Song Xuan. The woman on Song Xuan’s right is the City Lord of Jingzhu City, Fairy Nan Yang.”

“The skinny man on the outer right is the City Lord of Tianyong City, Gu Xiu.”

Su Zimo nodded to himself.

If he was not wrong, the five City Lords should be the five strongest Perfected Immortals in the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain.

According to the positions of the five of them, Song Xuan should be the leader.

Five City Lords of the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain were gathered!

Su Zimo and Lin Luo followed behind Jiang Xuanyou and passed by a group of Perfected Immortals before continuing forward. Now that they were closer, they could see things even clearer.

Su Zimo’s gaze passed by the five City Lords. In the middle of the hall stood a stone pillar with a skinny figure tied to it by chains, leaning against it tightly.

Although the figure’s head was lowered and his disheveled hair covered most of his face, Su Zimo recognized at a glance that it was Tao Yao!

Tao Yao looked even thinner than in the lower worlds. He was like a bag of bones and his exposed skin was pale without any color.

Even the chains that bound him were thicker than his arm.

It was hard to imagine how much torture and pain he had endured over the years!

Tao Yao was different from all the cultivators in the world.

Up till this point of his cultivation, Tao Yao’s hands had not been tainted by any blood.

He had fought with others and even devoured a large amount of lifeforce essence in blood to cultivate.

However, he had never killed any living being!

Be it whether the other party was good or evil, immortal or fiend, Tao Yao had never killed them.

No matter good or evil, which of the living beings of the ten thousand races that could ascend from the lower worlds did not have blood in their hands?

Which of them didn’t have corpses strewn beneath their feet?

However, Tao Yao was a variable to begin with.

He had never killed humans and his body was not tainted by karma!

Even if someone released the Red Lotus Karmic Fire on Tao Yao, it would be useless.

Such a pure-hearted child who could not bear to kill and did not get involved in karma was enduring such pain at the moment.

Immediately after, Su Zimo saw another scene and could not help but shudder with a cold killing intent in his eyes!

The Immortal Peach Tree in the middle of the hall released slender branches that extended to the stone pillar and pierced into Tao Yao’s body.

Every single branch was like a bloodthirsty worm that was devouring Tao Yao’s blood in huge mouthfuls!

Tao Yao had long fainted. At that moment, he was trapped on the stone pillar and his body twitched unconsciously.

Even though Lin Luo and Tao Yao did not know one another, she could not help but frown as well when she saw that.

Sensing the killing intent from Su Zimo, Lin Luo was alarmed and grabbed his hand hurriedly.

Su Zimo glanced sideways with bloodshot eyes.

Lin Luo looked into his eyes and shook her head gently, indicating for him to not be reckless.

If Su Zimo were to rush forward and fight with all his might, he would be killed on the spot before he could even touch Song Xuan’s clothes!

Any one of the thousands of Perfected Immortal experts was enough to kill Su Zimo!

Su Zimo closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying his best to compose himself.

Indeed, the Green Lotus True Body could not save Tao Yao and could only wait for the Martial Dao Prime Body to descend.

Even if the Martial Dao Prime Body sped at full speed towards Langfeng City after he entered the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain, he would only arrive after a while!

“Mmm?”

Although Su Zimo had retracted his killing intent, Song Xuan’s senses were extremely sharp. As though he sensed something, he turned back.

After discovering nothing, Song Xuan turned around and waved his hand gently, berating, “Alright, that’s enough. Don’t suck this peach blossom spirit to death.”

The Immortal Peach Tree seemed to understand what Song Xuan meant. Although it was unwilling, it retracted its branches bit by bit.

Instantly, a few bloodied holes appeared on Tao Yao’s body.

However, his physique was strong and his bloodline was extraordinary. Before long, the bloodied holes coagulated and stopped bleeding.
