Chapter 1653: The Attitude of the Sword God Clan

wasn't anything major happening right now, so staying put wouldn't cause any issues.Three days later.In the imperial capital of Tianluo, lanterns hung everywhere and festive decorations were abundant....The headquarter of human race!

"News has arrived from Huayang's ancestral home: Four great imperial dynasties have assembled a combined force of 40 million soldiers, marching towards this location. Leading the army from the Taichu Imperial Dynasty is the Heavenly Star God Emperor.

This person's strength is among the top even among all the supreme God Emperors. Over the past eight hundred years, they have led their armies on expeditions, and a considerable portion of our Huayang ancestral lands has fallen into their hands.

In the Ninth City, all the powerful figures gathered. The Jade Emperor Immortal King spoke in a deep voice.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

When these words were spoken, everyone present turned grave.

Especially those powerful individuals belonging to the Netherworld forces, their expressions were even more unsightly.

As cultivators native to the Netherworld, they understood better than anyone the immense power of Heavenly Star God Emperor.

Now that he has personally led his troops here, many cultivators immediately feel immense pressure.

The Jade Emperor Immortal King said: “However, there is also good news now. The formation will be almost complete in about three days. As long as the formation is completed, reinforcements can arrive at the first time.”

As long as there are no sealing formations to obstruct us, our reinforcements will be able to arrive. Of course, even if the dark forces possess sealing formation techniques, we also have the ability to break through them.

Now that you all are guarding your respective cities, vigilance must be heightened, especially the first city. This defensive line comprises nine cities, and as the first city's position is at the forefront, relying solely on Tianzong's strength to defend it may prove insufficient.

So, in the future, strong warriors will also come from Huayang's ancestral home to the First City and work together to defend it!

Upon hearing this.

All parties of deities had different expressions.

Letting Tianzong guard the first city is naturally to use the hands of the four imperial dynasties to grind down Tianzong's power, and it's best to expose all of Tianzong's trump cards.

It's just now.

The Hua Yang ancestral home sending powerful warriors into the First City was something they hadn't expected.

But.

On second thought.

They were also relieved.

For the Nether forces, the most important thing right now is still to guard the entrances to the heavens. Everything else is secondary.

Although Tianzong's pressure was greatly reduced, the various divine clans also did not take Tianzong seriously.

All things considered.

This is just a sect with Guoshenjun sitting in charge.

At the level of a God Emperor, they wouldn't even be considered anything.

Just as various parties were secretly scheming, Shen Changqing's expression remained serene. He seemed indifferent to everything, showing little emotional fluctuation.

As the crowd of powerhouses dispersed, Shen Changqing was about to leave the Ninth City when he was stopped by a voice.

"Master Shen, please wait!"

"I have met the Venerable Seven Stars!"

Shen Changqing also bowed his hands.

The visitor was none other than the Seven Star Venerable of the Sword God Clan.

The latter looked at the person in front of him, his expression slightly complicated. Finally, he sighed: "I believe Master Shen is also aware of the current situation. If things are truly beyond our control, Master Shen can come to my Sword God Clan."

I believe that with me, the Sword God Clan, present, they will always give us some face.

After all, our ancestor is still alive. To them, that's the greatest deterrence.

"Thank you for your kindness, Venerable Master. Shen understands it fully. However, some things will come as they must. Even if Shen could rely on the Sword God Clan to hide for a time, he couldn't truly avoid them forever."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

As for this matter, Shen has already prepared himself mentally and does not want to implicate the Sword God Clan.

As for the meaning behind Qixing Venerable's words, Shen Changqing also understood, but he did not rely on the Sword God Clan's idea. Although the Sword God Clan was considered to have a good relationship with Tianzong, this matter involved more than just one or two god clans. Furthermore, there wasn't just one voice within the Sword God Clan itself. If he really wanted to rely entirely on the Sword God Clan,...

It's not that easy either.

However.

The arrival of the Venerable Qixing shows his stance.

After all, in the current turbulent situation, not many forces are willing to side with Tianzong.

It is clear to all that the current situation for Tianzong is not optimistic.

A slight misstep could land you in hot water.

The Venerable Qixing's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, and finally he said helplessly: "If Master Shen is confident, that's best. But I still say the same thing, as long as there are green mountains left, we won't worry about running out of firewood."

With your talent and potential, you are sure to achieve immortality in the future.

It's better to yield a step than to act rashly.

Such words don't sound like they came from a Venerable.

Shen Changqing looked deeply at the other person, who was startled and then chuckled awkwardly.

"Alright, these are all words Jian Huang asked me to relay. Of course, if it were up to me, I wouldn't care about any divine races or not, I'd just rely on my sword and carve out a clear path for myself."

"Master Shen, please rest assured. If the Heavenly Sect truly fights to the death and refuses to retreat, what does it matter if I sacrifice myself alongside you"

This moment.

The venerable Seven Stars returned to his former carefree and unrestrained self, showing no trace of the seriousness he had just displayed.

"This is the Qixing Venerable Shen knows!"

Shen Changqing smiled calmly.

Thereafter.

He looked in other directions of the void, where many powerful figures were now watching this place. "Since the establishment of Tianzong, how many tribulations have stopped Shen's footsteps, but they were all flattened by Shen in the end. It was like this before, and it will be the same now. Things haven't reached the final step yet, so there is no need to bother the Venerable for now... When Shen truly needs it, I will ask the Venerable to take action!"

Looking at Shen Changqing's confident expression, the Seventh Star Venerable didn't say much, and directly nodded: "Good, since Sect Master Shen has a plan, then I won't say much. Still that saying, Sect Master Shen needs anything just speak up."

"Great!"

Shen Changqing nodded and then left.

It is now.

The power that enveloped the two of them, used to shield their conversation, has now dissipated. The Qixing Venerable glanced at the void and also left in the same way, soaring into the air.

"Sword God Clan..."

“The appearance of Venerable Qixing, could it be a signal that the Jian Shen clan is going to team up with Tianzong”“Hmph, the destruction of Tianzong is already inevitable. Even if the Jian Shen clan interferes, they can’t change this fact. Besides, the Jian Shen clan’s involvement is probably not so simple. They might be looking for an opportunity to seize the inheritance of the ancient Emperor alone.”

"No matter what the Sword God Clan's purpose is, before the inheritance of the ancient emperor, they don't have that much face."

"The Sword God Clan is not to be feared, what is truly fearsome is the Sword Sovereign..."

All the powerful figures watched as Shen Changqing and the Seventh Star Venerable left, their eyes becoming much colder.

The involvement of the Sword God Clan has added a few variables to the situation.

If it were at any other time, these deities might perhaps choose to forgo their actions against the Heavenly Sect out of fear of the Sword God Clan's formidable power.

But.

When it comes to the inheritance of ancient emperors, it's a completely different story.

Such an inheritance could be related to whether one can attain the position of a Divine Venerable in the future. Don't even mention a single Sword God Clan, even if there were ten, they wouldn't back down easily.

If the Sword Sovereign were here, perhaps the various divine clans would truly be intimidated.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But now that the Sword Sovereign is gone, the situation is different.

Other deities' gazes, Shen Changqing ignored them. He had never relied on the thoughts of other forces. The arrival of the Seven Star Venerable was also something he found unexpected.

It is obvious.

This is the benevolent attitude Jian Huang has towards himself.

However.

Within the Jian Shen clan, there has never been only one voice. Though Jian Huang is the emperor of the Jian Shen clan, the return of the powerful figures from the Divine Palace means their words carry significant weight as well.

In this way.

Even if Shen Changqing himself truly requested the Jian Shen Clan to intervene, he believed that the true power the Jian Shen Clan could mobilize wouldn't be much.

But no matter what.

The arrival of the Venerable Seven Stars also represents the views of a part of the Sword God Clan.

When Shen Changqing returned to the First City, the strong men from Huayang's ancestral home also arrived.

Leading the army of cultivators was none other than the Jade Emperor Immortal King.

"Master Shen, behind us lies the Huayang ancestral home and Tianzong jointly guarding the first city. This battle is no small matter, I hope Master Shen will also do his best!"

The Jade Emperor smiled, his tone not exactly warm, but neither was it cold.

As an ancient powerhouse, Jade Emperor Immortal King was well aware that one must not underestimate any cultivator. After all, no one could say for sure whether someone would achieve great things in the future.

Even though Tianzong is currently in a desperate situation, Yu Jing Xianwang still has no intention of taking advantage of the situation.

Even without mentioning his plan to incorporate Shen Changqing into the Huayang ancestral hall after his death, it's simply not certain that Shen Changqing would have truly perished.

Before a matter is settled, one should not hastily take sides.

For countless years.

The Jade King Immortal had seen too many prodigies rise, causing some old-school powerhouses to fall.

In dealing with people, the Jade Emperor was also very tactful.

"This battle's outcome isn't just about the Hua Yang ancestral home, it's also about Tian Zong. This seat will naturally do its best, but since Tian Zong is weak, I'm afraid that by then, we'll have to rely on Jade Capital Immortal King for a lot of help!"

Shen Changqing also did not hit a smiling face, and responded with a smile.

That's it.

The Jade King Immortal nodded slightly, then said, "Let us jointly guard the First City."

"Hmph, Tianzong is putting on quite a show. Now that we're here, they've actually taken over the City Lord's Mansion and won't let us in. How utterly clueless!"

In the main hall of a mansion in the first city, powerful figures from the Huayang ancestral home showed displeasure.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Since the Hua Yang ancestral army deployed to First City, it was thought that Ti Zong would be fawning everywhere. Unexpectedly, the other party ignored them completely. They didn't even give up the city lord's mansion, which represented their authority, making many powerful people disgruntled.

The Jade Emperor Immortal King looked impassive and said nonchalantly, "These are trivial matters. There's no need to dwell on them so much. The Heavenly Sect may not be as simple as it appears."

After all, since the ancient cataclysm, the human race has been weak and nearly extinct. The one who can lead the human race to rise again must have extraordinary means.

Don't look at the current situation where Tianzong seems to be in a hopeless state. No one can predict the outcome until the very end.

For some trivial matters to fall out with Heavenly Sect is unnecessary. You must not act against Heavenly Sect without authorization. If I discover this, I will certainly punish you severely!

In the end, Yu Jing Xian Wang's expression became extremely stern. Hearing this, the other powerhouses from the Hua Yang ancestral home hurriedly nodded their heads, not daring to disobey.Following the ancient desolate executioner, his blood-stained figure emerged from the boundless void. All powerful beings understood that what had fallen was none other than the ancient desolate saint...
