Emperor’s Domination

e lions jaws.

“Time to start this, you all deserve death for making me wait so long!” Zhou Ziqing arrogantly stared at the group before uttering.

The seven stood behind Li Qiye with great composure while waiting for his order. They seemed to be more mature than before.

The training in deep space truly benefited them, allowing them to be unflustered before their enemy.

“I will have both your heads and the crown today!” Ziqing revealed a murderous expression. Alas, her eyes narrowed while looking at Li Qiye. She then reminded herself that she had her own masters waiting nearby.

She didnt hide her greed while staring at the crown at all. Taking it out on these youth was also her chance to payback the humiliation suffered earlier to the hand of Li Qiye.

Most importantly, Eight Trigrams Kingdom wanted the crown. Failure stemming from mistakes was unacceptable.

This was going to determine her future. Success meant soaring into prosperity. She would surely be rewarded and become a concubine to the crown prince from Eight Trigrams. At that point, she could call for rains and winds on a whim.

Thats why she was so determined right now to get the crown. No one would be able to stop her.

“Go now, dont return without her head for doing so is insulting me.” Li Qiye said without opening his eyes, not caring about the spectators present.

“Yes, Ancestor.” The group respectfully bowed.

“Ancestor? Since when does Mountguard have such a young ancestor?” Their address confused many people.

Nevertheless, they quickly dismissed it since this ancestor probably wasnt that powerful. He would only be an Ascender at best, not a big deal. Only Eternals were relevant in the system.

“Hmph!” Zhou Ziqing snorted after hearing the comment, emboldened by the presence of mighty masters from her own sect.

“No one from Mountguard will leave this place alive! This is the fate of those who oppose our Central Sacred Ground!” She pompously declared.

These words were meant for Li Qiye. She wanted him to die along with Weizheng. Next, her sect would also destroy Mountguard.

The connection between Mountguard and the Virtuous Crown was deeply rooted in history. They needed to destroy Mountguard as well in order to establish a sage with the crown. No one would question their eligibility then.

Unfortunately, Li Qiye ignored her declaration of war.

“Get ready, dont underestimate your enemy. Go all out.” Weizheng told the group.

He wasnt as confident in the seven compared to Li Qiye. He didnt think they could kill Zhou Ziqing just by working together.

The group acknowledged the command and walked in a line onto the stage.

“Since this is a battle to the death at Reincarnation Mountain, I hope Im not out of line to recommend myself as the referee for both sides.” An old man stepped up and loudly declared.

He had a heavy sword on his back, brimming with sword energy. The guy was obviously a powerful Ascender.

“Pinnacle Sword Saint from Pinnacle Kingdom.” Some recognized him right away.

“I have no objection.” Ziqing agreed.

“We also have no objection.” Weizheng hesitated for a bit before agreeing. He had heard about this sword saint before but didnt quite trust him. Alas, he didnt have a better candidate here right now to be the referee.
