Chapter 1663: The Most Exciting Commanders’ Competition

 

After the cultivator left, Zhu Honggong lowered his head and muttered to himself, “I must avoid them!”

Zhu Honggong thought about his master, who was far away in Xuanyi Palace, and wondered out loud, “I wonder what is he thinking? Don’t tell me he’s found a wife in the Great Void and has decided to abandon us disciples?”

He scratched his head confused. “Forget it. It’s useless to think so much.”

Three days passed in just a blink of an eye.

Zhu Honggong, along with two cultivators, left the Sacred Temple for the Cloud Domain.

During their journey, Zhu Honggong asked, “Have you investigated the matter I entrusted you with?”

“Yes. I heard from someone that the other owners of the Great Void Seeds have profound cultivation bases and can be said to be invincible among Dao Saints. I’m afraid… We’ll suffer a loss,” the cultivator said.

Zhu Honggong scoffed coldly and said, “Hey, hey, are you looking down on me while praising others?”

“No, no! I don’t dare!” the cultivator hurriedly said. Then, he passed a piece of paper to Zhu Honggong before he continued to say, “This is the result of my investigation. It’s not necessarily accurate since they might change their minds. Moreover, it’s said that even if the challengers choose the hall they want to join, they might not necessarily be assigned to that hall.”

Zhu Honggong carefully read the content of the paper and committed it to his memory. After a moment, he asked in confusion, “We might not necessarily join the hall we chose?”

“I don’t know much either. However, I think it’s like that Commander Qi Sheng will make some adjustments when the time comes,” the cultivator said.

Zhu Honggong frowned slightly. “Qi Sheng? Does that swindler really think he’s so important?”

The cultivator was shocked. He hurriedly said, “Mr. Zhu, be careful that no one hears you.”

“Why are you so afraid? I even dare to scold him to his face! Lead the way. Let’s go to the Cloud Domain and show them how powerful I am!”

Cloud Domain.

The Cloud Domain was located in the center of the ten halls. It was also located above the Great Abyss Land.

Due to the holes on the ground that resembled clouds, it was called Cloud Domain.

At this time, many cultivators had already arrived at the Cloud Domain. Most of them were prodigies from the ten halls and various forces.

At this moment, someone exclaimed, “Look to the east! They’re here!”

Everyone looked to the east in unison and saw two huge flying chariots, one azure and one white, flying over slowly in the distant sky. There were many cultivators surrounding the two flying chariots.

“The White Emperor and the Azure Emperor arrived at the same time!”

“It’s going to be interesting!”

Most of the cultivators wore respectful expressions on their faces when they looked at the two flying chariots.

Not long after, the two flying chariots arrived at the deck high in the sky above.

The cultivators below naturally could not see what was happening on the deck, and they did not dare to fly up to have a look despite their burning curiosity.

A voice rang from the white flying chariot. “Azure Emperor, didn’t you already go to Xuanyi Palace? Why did you come to Cloud Domain?”

Someone from the azure flying chariot replied, “We were just warming up in Xuanyi Palace. Naturally, it’s best to become a commander with many heroes as witnesses in Cloud Domain.”

Bai Zhaojuai, the White Emperor laughed. “Don’t tell me you suffered a loss in Xuanyi Palace so you came to the Cloud Domain hoping to bully someone weaker?”

“Nonsense.”

Following that, two figures flashed and appeared on the deck of the azure flying chariot. One of them held a sword while the other held a saber.

The swordsman said bluntly, “The White Emperor is right. There’s an expert guarding Xuanyi Palace. I admit defeat.”

Ling Weiyang, the Azure Emperor: “?”

The swordsman nodded as he continued to say, “Victories and defeats are common in war.”

‘Heavens! You two ingrates! Can you not embarrass me during such a critical moment?!’

Ling Weiyang flashed and appeared in front of the duo on the deck.

Bai Zhaoju flashed onto the deck of his flying chariot as well. Then, he laughed and said, “Ling Weiyang, I really admire you”

Ling Weiyang glanced at the white flying chariot and asked, “Don’t talk nonsense. Where are your people?”

Bai Zhaoju waved his sleeve.

Two beautiful figures flew over from the back of the flying chariot and landed on the deck behind Bai Zhaoju. They were both peerless beauties who could topple countries. They were none other than Zhao Yue and Ye Tianxian.

“Greetings, Azure Emperor.”

Over the past 100 years, the two women had undergone earth-shaking changes in temperament. They were more mature and elegant now.

“There’s no need for formalities,” Ling Weiyang said with the air of an elder.

Zhao Yue and Ye Tianxin bowed slightly at Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong as a form of greeting.

Upon seeing this, Ling Weiyang asked, “Do you know each other?”

Bai Zhaoju said, “It’s been 100 years. Even if they’ve not met each other, they’ve definitely heard about each other. Ling Weiyang, we’ve not seen each other in a while, and it seems like your brain is working quite as well as before.”

Ling Weiyang scoffed. “You old thing! I’ll teach you a lesson. Just wait for the commanders’ competition later!”

“I was just joking. Why must you take it so seriously?” Bai Zhaoju said before he asked, “Why isn’t that bag of bones, Zhi Guangji, here?”

“Him? That old thing has been in a bad mood recently. He’s been looking for trouble with me everywhere. He’s become more honest recently, which really isn’t his style,” Ling Weiyang replied.

As soon as Ling Weiyang’s voice fell, a huge red flying chariot flew over from the south.

The Scarlet Emperor had arrived.

With the three of the Four Emperors of Lost Lands in attendance, it grew even livelier.

Apart from the Sacred Temple and the ten halls, the other forces did not expect this at all.

Chi Biaonu, the Scarlet Emperor, stood on the deck of the red flying chariot so he saw Ling Weiyang and Bai Zhaoju immediately. He said, “You arrived so early. It’s better to arrive at the right time.”

“Red Emperor, I heard you lost at Southern Split Mountain. Did you come to look for a new opponent today?” Ling Weiyang asked. He naturally would not give up on the chance to tease Chi Biaonu.

Chi Biaonu did not react. He said calmly, “You’re wrong. My two men defeated Zhang He at Southern Li Mountain. However, there’s another expert in Xuanyi Palace.”

“Another expert?” Ling Weiyang looked at Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong, wondering if the expert was the duo’s master. When he thought about the duo’s master, he felt uneasy. He had been thinking about that person since he left Xuanyi Palace. Later on, he even asked the duo about their master’s identity before he finally dispelled the terrifying thought in his mind. He hoped he was thinking too much.

Soon enough, the cultivators from the Ten Halls of the Great Void arrived from all four directions. Some rode on fierce beasts while some flew on flying chariots.

In less than 15 minutes, the flying chariots formed a huge circle in the sky above the Cloud Domain.

Cultivators walked out of the flying chariots one after another and greeted the three Emperors of the Lost Lands.

“This commanders’ competition should be the most exciting one in history, right?”

“Luckily, I came this time. I have no regrets now that I saw the three Emperors of the Lost Lands in the Great Void!”

“Who’s the host? Why aren’t the people from the Sacred Temple here yet?”

Following that, a thunderous voice rang from the distant sky in the west.

“Everyone.”

Just one word alone attracted everyone’s attention.

Some people recognized the voice while some looked up in confusion and curiosity.

The voice continued to say, “I’m the newly appointed Commander of Tu Wei Hall, Qi Sheng. I’m in charge of the commanders’ competition this time. Thank you for coming.”

Qi Sheng, the Commander of Tu Wei Hall?

Upon hearing this, the cultivators below began to discuss animatedly among themselves.

Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong looked in the direction of the voice. They carefully studied the masked young man, trying to determine his identity from his figure, speech, and behavior.

Yu Shangrong said in a low voice, “Eldest Senior Brother, you spent a long time with Seventh Junior Brother so you know him better. Did you find anything?”

Yu Zhenghai replied, “Nothing conclusive. All I can say is that they’re very similar.”

Yu Shangrong nodded and did not continue speaking as he looked at Qi Sheng.

Qi Sheng continued to say, “The rules of the competition are the same as before. All cultivators at and above the stage of a Dao Saint are allowed to issue challenges. The winner will be the commander. Naturally, you can challenge me as well.”

At this moment, a tall man holding a long sword said loudly, “I’ll challenge you!”

Qi Sheng smiled faintly and said, “Before I accept the challenge, I’d like to say a few words.” He paused for a moment before he continued to say, “Let me introduce myself. I’m Qi Sheng, the seventh son in my family. Since Emperor Tu Wei passed away, the Tu Wei Hall has been in chaos without its master. Even its commander was gone. As one of ten halls, it could not be without its leader even for a day. Fortunately, I gained the recognition of Great Emperor Ming Xin, and he appointed me as the Commander of Tu Wei Hall to reorganize the hall and the Silver Guards. Thanks to many of my seniors and elders, Tu Wei Hall has been peaceful ever since.”

“However, there were also some unpleasant things during this period of time. Hence, I’d like to apologize in front of everyone,” Qi Sheng said. He paused dramatically before he said, “I’d especially like to apologize to those from Xuan Meng Hall. I’m sorry for Wu Zu’s death.”

These words were like a stone that stirred up a thousand ripples.

‘Is this an indirect warning to everyone not to blindly challenge him? Did he mean to say that he killed Wu Zu?

Qi Sheng continued to say as though he could read the crowd’s minds, “Don’t misunderstand me. I’m being sincere, and it’s not a warning. If I’m defeated, I’m willing to step down. It’s not a bad idea to have a new commander in Tu Wei Hall. Hopefully, he or she will be able to restore it to its former glory.”

“…”

‘What does he mean by that? Who would want to accept a mess like Tu Wei Hall?’

When Tu Wei was alive, he used his status as a divine emperor to bully the other halls except for Shang Zhang Hall. Hence, Tu Wei Hall was greatly disliked by many.

At this moment, Ling Weiyang looked at Bai Zhaoju and said with a smile, “This young man is very interesting. Ming Xin has a discerning eye…”

Chi Biaonu said disapprovingly, “He’s just a little smart. The human heart is unpredictable and ever-changing. It’s not something that can be controlled with just a few words.”

Qi Sheng continued to say clearly, “Alright, the competition can start now.”

The commanders of the ten halls looked around, waiting for the challengers.

“I’ll go first!”

Subsequently, a red-clad old man flew to the center of the Cloud Domain and said loudly, “I’m Wei Chen from the Great Void’s City of Eternal Night. I want to challenge Yan Feng Hall!”

Everyone looked in the direction of Yan Feng Hall’s flying chariot.

No one was interested in this fight.

Yan Feng Hall was different from before. Its master had fallen. However, unlike the Tu Wei Hall, which had also lost its master, that caused trouble everywhere, it kept a low profile.

At this time, a figure flew out of Yan Feng Hall and attacked Wei Chen without saying anything.

The two opponents started fighting just like that.

At the same time, Ling Weiyang turned to Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong before he asked, “Have you chosen a hall?”

Yu Zhenhai replied first, “Yes.”

Yu Shangrong nodded. “I’ve already made up my mind three days ago.”

Ling Weiyang asked curiously, “How did you choose?”

After all, it was also important to choose a suitable hall.

Unexpectedly, the duo replied in unison, “By drawing lots.”

“…”

Ling Weiyang was speechless. ‘Sooner or later, I’m going to be angered to death by these two ingrates!’

At this time, a Silver Guard flew over from outside the circular area and said, “Your Majesty, the Green Emperor, Commander Qi Sheng asked me to hand this letter to the two challengers.”

Ling Weiyang looked at Qi Sheng and muttered, “What kind of tricks is trying to pull this time?”

Ling Weiyang did not pay attention to battle in the arena at all. He waved his hand, bringing the letter to him. When he opened it, he saw the marked positions of the ten Pillars of Destruction. From one to ten, they were all marked. Following that, the picture suddenly vanished.

Ling Weiyang frowned. “What does it mean?”
