Eternal Sacred King

2508 Choice of Nest

Outside the residence, dozens of Heaven Immortals entered.

“Xie Yan?”

Xie Qingcheng frowned slightly.

The leader of the group of cultivators was Prince Yan who was highly regarded by the Yan Yang Immortal King. Behind him was the reincarnated Perfected Immortal, Lie Xuan, who was Rank 4 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction!

“You know where Brother Su is?”

Xie Qingcheng asked in a deep voice.

“Of course.”

A gloating expression flashed through Prince Yan’s face as he smiled. “Your Brother Su was forced into the Malevolent Blood Lake by Zong Feiyu and is already dead!”

“Ah!”

Heaven Immortal Yue Ying and the others were shocked and exclaimed softly.

Instinctively, Xie Qingcheng clenched his fists as well and grit his teeth. “That’s impossible! Brother Su has a teleportation talisman. Even if he can’t win, he would have left the Asura Battlefield!”

“What’s impossible?”

Prince Yan sneered, “Zong Feiyu attacked personally. Su Zimo is only Rank 24 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction, do you think he can get a chance to escape? Furthermore, Brother Lie witnessed it personally.”

Lie Xuan raised his eyes and looked at Prince Yan in front of him in silence, as though he was silently acknowledging this.

Although Prince Yan was not present, he had already recounted the situation to the latter.

It was impossible for Zong Feiyu alone to force Su Zimo into the Malevolent Blood Lake!

Although Prince Yan knew that, he said that intentionally because he wanted to divert attention and cause trouble for Princess Yu Yan and Zong Feiyu.

Lie Xuan could read Prince Yan’s mind but he could not expose the latter.

However, he was unwilling to lie. That was why he remained silent.

“Brother Su… is dead?”

Xie Qingcheng’s eyes reddened as he shook his head gently in disbelief.

Heaven Immortal Yue Ying sighed gently. “As a reincarnated Perfected Immortal, Zong Feiyu is Rank 3 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction. If he were to attack, Su Zimo would indeed not stand a chance.”

Another person said, “Su Zimo has a deep feud with Zither Immortal Meng Yao and Zong Feiyu is from the same sect as her. It makes sense for him to attack Su Zimo.”

Prince Yan raised his head slightly. “Qingcheng, I’m here this time round to give you a chance.”

“What do you mean?”

Xie Qingcheng frowned.

Prince Yan said, “Your subordinate, Su Zimo, has already been killed by Zong Feiyu. If you want to take revenge for him, you can only join forces with me. After all, I have Brother Lie’s help and can fight against Zong Feiyu.”

“Of course, Qingcheng, you don’t have to fight for the seal anymore. If you help me get my hands on the Spirit Cloud Seal, you’ll also be a part of my subordinates in the future.”

Xie Qingcheng was so angry that he laughed instead.

He was long disgusted by the gloating look on Prince Yan’s face when the latter mentioned that Su Zimo was dead.

Now, Prince Yan’s condescending tone made him even more resistant!

Prince Yan made everything sound real good, as though the two of them would be joining forces to take revenge for Su Zimo.

However, in reality, Prince Yan wanted him to submit!

“I’ll naturally seek justice for Brother Su.”

Xie Qingcheng waved his hand and said impatiently, “However, there’s no need to talk about joining forces. Leave!”

When he heard that, Prince Yan’s expression darkened instantly as he said coldly, “Xie Qingcheng, you’re truly shameless!”

“What did you say?!”

Xie Qingcheng glared angrily.

Prince Yan sneered, “I’m giving you face by asking you to join forces with me! Otherwise, do you think a lowlife like you is worthy of joining forces with me?”

Those words sounded extremely piercing and even Lie Xuan frowned slightly.

Xie Qingcheng’s blood surged and he was enraged.

When Heaven Immortal Yue Ying saw that the situation was bad, he hurried forward and held Xie Qingcheng back, saying in a low voice, “Prince, please calm down. Don’t be rash!”

“Why? You even want to attack me?”

Prince Yan raised his brow slightly. “If you dare to touch me, I don’t mind crippling you right now and kicking you out of the Asura battlefield!”

Xie Qingcheng panted slightly and the anger in his eyes gradually calmed down.

The only way to attain what others cannot is by enduring what others cannot as well!

That was what his mother said to him before her death and he would remember it forever!

If not for that forbearance, he would not have been able to survive till now.

Lie Xuan looked at Xie Qingcheng deeply and thought to himself, “How ambitious must this lad be to be able to endure such humiliation?!”

Be it in terms of talent, bloodline or status, Prince Yan was superior to Xie Qingcheng.

However, in Lie Xuan’s opinion, Xie Qingcheng might not be inferior to Prince Yan in the future.

In fact, he had a feeling that this prince with a beautiful face before him might one day stand out from the descendants of the royal family!

“Very good.”

When Prince Yan saw Xie Qingcheng lower his head and not dare to meet his gaze, he nodded with a satisfied expression.

He looked at the Heaven Immortals behind Xie Qingcheng and said, “Your master is unwilling to submit, but I’ll give you guys a chance now. You can either come over to my side or wait for me to send you guys out of the Asura Battlefield!”

The Heaven Immortals looked at Xie Qingcheng instinctively.

Xie Qingcheng was expressionless and silent.

He could already tell that Prince Yan was here to annex his manpower to supplement the Heaven Immortals that he had lost previously.

“Prince Qingcheng, I’m sorry.”

Heaven Immortal Yue Ying was the first to stand out. “A wise bird chooses a proper tree to nestle in…”

“Scram!”

Xie Qingcheng interrupted without even looking at him.

Heaven Immortal Yue Ying shrugged his shoulders and walked towards Prince Yan.

Before he arrived, Heaven Immortal Yue Ying bowed. “I’ve heard a lot about you, Prince Yan. It’s a pity that I didn’t have the chance to follow you. Now that I’ve obtained your recognition, I’m willing to serve you loyally!”

“Good, good, good!”

Prince Yan burst into laughter.

Heaven Immortal Yue Ying was the first to stand out. Immediately after, nine more people stood on Prince Yan’s side.

In the blink of an eye, there were only six people left behind Xie Qingcheng.

“Fufu, it seems like there are still six people who can’t recognize their circumstances.”

Prince Yan chuckled.

“You guys…”

It was only then that Xie Qingcheng turned around and looked at the six people beside him, wanting to speak but stopped.

“Prince, let’s go.”

A Grade 9 Heaven Immortal among the six of them said, “The few of us won’t stand a chance in the fight for the Spirit Cloud Seal.”

“That’s right.”

Another person said, “Prince, you once saved my life. I’ll definitely not abandon you. However, we’ll only embarrass ourselves if we stay now.”

Xie Qingcheng hesitated for a long time before his gaze turned resolute.

He still remembered Su Zimo’s reminder before he left.

‘There’s still more than 20 days to the final fight for the seal. If anything happens to me during this period of time, don’t worry. Don’t give up until the last moment!’

At that time, Xie Qingcheng did not understand.

Now that he thought about it, Su Zimo seemed to have expected something to happen.

There was a deeper meaning to his words.

Furthermore, Su Zimo had reminded him twice not to give up until the last moment!

At that thought, Xie Qingcheng said, “Brothers, thank you for your loyalty and trust. Crush your teleportation talismans and leave this place.”

“As for me, I’ll wait here and see. It’s just slightly more than 20 days in any case.”
