Chapter 403 What Xuanji Sword Saint Wants

"Brother Shi, you really make me sad. I've been here for such a long time. And you didn't even bother to come and talk to me. Instead, you asked me to ask Wang Jie to call you. Moreover, they even sent a beautiful woman. You are so considerate."

Zhao Shuang looked at Shi Ren who had arrived and complained immediately.

As for Li Min, Zhao Shuang arranged for him to take care of Xuanji Sword Saint.

Xuanji Sword Saint liked this little girl very much and gave her some pointers.

Of course, all the work of serving tea and water was done by this little girl.

The little girl Li Min was very happy and pleased with these things.

After all, Xuanji Sword Saint has excellent character, far better than Zhao Shuang, the romantic and lustful King Ji.

"Don't be angry, Heavenly King. I have been taking care of my father all these years. I just learned that Heavenly King has arrived at the Sword Tomb. I would like to thank Heavenly King for his help in my father's matter. Without Heavenly King, I am afraid that my father would never recover in his lifetime."

When he said this, a trace of pain and hatred appeared in Shi Ren's eyes.

Of course it is for the Wang father and son.

"We don't have enough evidence yet. When we have enough, Master will naturally take action to clean up the prison clan and the Wang family. But, Brother Shi, don't you plan to do something right now?"

Zhao Shuang said with a smile.

"Right now, the most important thing for me is my father. Although the Pluto blood poison in his body has been cleared, his vitality is still severely damaged. It will probably take quite some time for him to fully recover."

Shi Ren smiled bitterly.

"Then give this to your father! I believe he will be able to recover as before soon, or even go one step further and become a Saint King of Spiritual Power. Then, his chances of winning against the Undead Vampires will be even greater."

Zhao Shuang took out a jade slip and handed it to Shi Ren, saying.

It contains some of the methods of cultivating spiritual power in "Pan Wu's Great Power".

As long as the cultivation is successful, it will be enough to restore to the peak, or even go further to become the Holy King of Spiritual Power. This will be a great help to the entire Zhenyu Ancient Clan and the Pluto Sword Tomb.

"This is……"

Shi Ren naturally believed what Zhao Shuang said, but he still wanted to know the specific content.

"This holds the key to enabling Master, the Flying Feather Sword Saint, and Sect Leader Ling Xiu to advance even further. I believe it will also enable your father to advance even further. If the Undead Blood Clan had not been so pressing and aggressive this time, perhaps even sending out the Blood Emperor, I would never have given you such an important item."

Zhao Shuang gave a brief explanation.

After hearing what Zhao Shuang said, Shi Ren's breathing became heavier, and his face was filled with ecstasy.

"This... this is really too valuable!"

"If you think it's too expensive, you don't have to. I have no objection."

Zhao Shuang shrugged and smiled nonchalantly.

"No no no!"

"King Ji Tian has misunderstood. We, the Shi family, are deeply grateful for this great favor."

Seeing this, Shi Ren quickly stood up and solemnly bowed to Zhao Shuang with a grateful face and expressed his gratitude.

"Alright, forget about the thanks. Just hurry and give this to your father! Calculating the time, the Imperial Ministry of War should have sent someone over. I just don't know who they'll send, but I just hope they don't send some useless person. It'll save me from all the hassle."

Zhao Shuang waved his hand and ordered them to leave. "Okay, goodbye. Thank you, King Ji."

Shi Ren also knew about this matter, so naturally the sooner the better. After bowing again, he immediately said goodbye and left.

As soon as Shi Ren left, the little girl Li Min hid behind Xuanji Sword Saint, staring at Zhao Shuang with eyes full of longing and expectation.

Obviously, she also heard what was said just now and wanted the jade slip that Zhao Shuang gave to Shi Ren.

"Master, you're here. Please take a seat. Is there anything I can help you with? Or do the ancestors think there's something wrong with the cultivation method I gave them?"

Zhao Shuang stood up and greeted him with a salute.

"The ancestors are very happy with the cultivation method you gave them. However, they are more concerned about..."

Xuanji Sword Saint had a strange look on his face, but was a little embarrassed to say it out loud.

"Why...what's the problem? Do they have any other requests?"

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang was curious. It was the first time he saw Xuanji Sword Saint in such a state.

"They want to know when you can capture Feiyu Sword Saint, the heir of the Heaven Burial Sword."

Xuanji Sword Saint showed a rare look of embarrassment on his face and stated his purpose.

"Cough cough!"

Hearing this, Zhao Shuang couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

The little girl Li Min's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.

She really didn't expect to hear such gossip.

"This... this, Master, this, I have already given a divine corpse as a betrothal gift. But I have to wait until my realm surpasses hers, or at least be able to defeat her. Although I am now strong enough to deal with a saint, she is a saint. I am not her match yet, not for the time being."

Zhao Shuang coughed twice and explained.

"Master also knows that it's not possible at the moment, so I won't force it. However, let's get down to business! What do you think of the Undead Blood Clan's attempt to rescue Hades this time? Which Blood Emperor do you think they will send?"

Xuanji Sword Saint's expression straightened up again, and he sat down opposite Zhao Shuang and said.

"It's likely the Blue Sky Blood Emperor. He's most likely not the only one coming. After all, it's no secret that Master and Feiyu Sword Saint have broken through to the Saint King realm. Furthermore, they all know that the two of you can draw upon the power of past Sword Masters. With your Saint King status and the power of the ancestors of past Sword Masters, your combined strength is enough to rival a Blood Emperor. Therefore, to ensure absolute safety, they can't send just one Blood Emperor. The Equal Heaven Blood Emperor needs to be at the helm of the Undead Blood Clan and can't come in person. Otherwise, Empress Chi Yao would definitely intervene. Neither would the Master of the Undead Temple. The Moon Worshiping Demon Cult's Sect Leader Ling Xiu is constantly watching him. If he makes a move, I, your father-in-law, will undoubtedly do the same. Even though I've only just broken through to the Great Saint realm of Spiritual Power, I can hold him back for a while. Therefore, the most likely scenario is the Blue Sky Blood Emperor and one of the other Blood Emperors, or even two. That would be a truly terrifying battle."

Zhao Shuang sighed.

"Then could you please ask the senior behind you, the one who slapped Jiuyou and sent him flying, to help?"

Xuanji Sword Saint revealed his true purpose.

"As expected, Master, you're still after this matter. This is very difficult, so I can only give it a try. However, even if the people behind me don't take action, there will be seniors who will. Master, don't worry. The Pluto Sword Tomb is of great importance, and those old immortal guys will definitely take action. They are even on their way here."

Zhao Shuang smiled helplessly and said something that made Xuanji Sword Saint happy.

"really?"

Xuanji Sword Saint naturally didn't want Hades to be rescued by the undead vampires.

"Master, rest assured. It is absolutely impossible for Hades to appear in the world."

Zhao Shuang nodded.

"That's good. This way, I can rest assured. But who exactly is this senior you're talking about?"

Xuanji Sword Saint asked again, feeling relieved.

The girl Li Min also stared at Zhao Shuang with anticipation.

"Mingtang Saint Ancestor Kong Lanyou, she will definitely come."

Zhao Shuang mentioned someone. "Alright, the power of the Mingtang Saint Ancestor is no weaker than any Blood Emperor. With her in charge of the Pluto Sword Tomb, nothing will happen." Xuanji Sword Saint was not angry at the words "Mingtang Saint Ancestor". Instead, he was extremely happy.

"Yes! Moreover, if nothing unexpected happened, she should have already taken that step. In fact, I don't want her to take that step, because at this time, taking that step is just ordinary, and her future achievements will be limited."

Zhao Shuang added another sentence.

"Being able to take that step is already a great fortune. Even if it is ordinary, it is enough to defeat the Blood Emperor of the Undead Vampire Clan."

Xuanji Sword Saint doesn't think so.

"It's possible now, but it won't be enough in the future."

Zhao Shuang thought for a moment and said.

"Never mind. There's no need to say more about this matter. Anyway, let's get through this first before we talk about the rest. If we can't even get through this, there's no point in saying more."

Zhao Shuang shook his head and said nothing more.

"Indeed, the most important thing right now is to stop the Undead Vampires from rescuing Hades. As long as we can resolve this crisis, it will be enough. As for what happens next, it won't be too late to talk about it later."

Xuanji Sword Saint agreed.

"Yes! Now let's wait for the imperial army to send someone! I hope they're not some useless people."

Zhao Shuang's words were impolite again.

"It should be Wan Zhaoyi. He is a king just like you and your senior brother. However, he lost to your senior brother last time."

Xuanji Sword Saint thought of something and smiled.

After all, the fact that his eldest disciple Qingxiao was able to defeat the Little Saint King Wan Zhaoyi also greatly increased his face.

And the reason for all this is because of the disciple Zhao Shuang.

"Lost to your senior brother. Senior brother actually beat him. It seems that he has practiced the martial arts I taught him well. He even defeated Wan Zhaoyi."

Zhao Shuang chuckled.

"Yes, this is all thanks to you." Xuanji Sword Saint said with a smile.

"Okay, then let's wait for this Wan Trillion to arrive! I hope it won't be too disappointing."

Zhao Shuang nodded and said nothing more.

Afterwards, the master and disciple talked about the ancient Zhenyue clan.

……

Half a month later, someone from the imperial court's Ministry of War arrived.

Tens of thousands of trillions, talented women of holy books and more than ten semi-saints of the Ministry of War!
"Why are there so many trash?"
Upon seeing these more than ten semi-saints from the Ministry of War, Zhao Shuang frowned and said bluntly,
"King Ji, please be careful with your words."

Hearing what Zhao Shuang said, Wan Zhaoyi frowned and said unhappily.

"Be careful with your words, be careful with your words. Do you know who will come from the Undead Vampire Clan this time? Where are the Blood Emperors of the Undead Vampire Clan? Besides being useless bastards sent to their deaths, what else are they?"

Zhao Shuang raised his eyes and glanced at Wan Zhaoyi, saying in a cold voice.

"King Ji, the Ministry of War still needs their command, so please be careful with your words." Wan Zhaoyi's tone also turned cold.

"Oh! If you put it that way, they are of some use."

Zhao Shuang then raised his eyes and took a look at the Half-Saint of the Ministry of War who was looking at him with a fiery gaze.

"Why, you're not convinced?"

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang chuckled.

"I'm not convinced. I still hope King Jitian will ask for advice."

A tall crimson figure walked out from behind Wan Zhaoyi and said in a cold voice.

He was a very sturdy man, three meters tall, wearing a simple battle armor that exposed his abdomen, arms, and legs. He had a chain as thick as a bowl around his waist and wore a pair of silver-scale combat boots.

The giant scorpion king of the Ministry of War, Fengqin.

"I know you're not convinced, but you think you're no match for this Heavenly King. I also know that you're not convinced of my Heavenly King position either, thinking I'm taking advantage of the situation, which is why the Queen bestowed upon me the Heavenly King position. But even if you're not convinced, you have to hold it in. You had to hold it in before, and you still have to hold it in now, because you can't beat me. Do you understand? Don't think that being a Half-Saint means you're our opponent. I killed more than one Half-Saint when I was in the Fish Dragon Realm. As for now, you're nothing more than a slap in the face to this Heavenly King, so don't be unconvinced."

Zhao Shuang smiled contemptuously, his words full of sarcasm.
Before he could finish his words, the giant scorpion king Fengqin had already made his move.

He was as fast as the wind. In a flash, he rushed in front of Zhao Shuang, clenched his fist, and hit Zhao Shuang's chest.

With a "bang", Zhao Shuang's chest was pierced, but there was no scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere. Instead, the whole figure disintegrated and disappeared.

This is the afterimage left by the extremely fast speed!
"Tsk tsk tsk, a dignified Half-Saint of the Ministry of War has such low speed, yet he still wants to deal with the Undead Vampires. He's simply courting death!"

"What a waste."

Zhao Shuang's laughter was heard again in another place.

Feng Qin attacked again, but this time Zhao Shuang did not give him a chance.

One move, just one move! He was knocked back and seriously injured, falling to the ground at Wan Zhaoyi's feet.

"Little Saint Heavenly King, this is your subordinate. He is such a waste. To avoid a tragic death, I suggest you go back and practice! Otherwise, you will be embarrassed by your tragic death."

Zhao Shuang patted his hands, not knowing whether they were used or not.

The Holy Book Lady was also quite troubled by this scene. She could see that Zhao Shuang simply didn't want to cause too many innocent casualties, so he chose this humiliating method to force Wan Zhaoyi to withdraw his troops to avoid unnecessary casualties. But how could this be possible? Even if Wan Zhaoyi had the courage, it would be impossible.

"Alright, if it's this serious, it's just causing more trouble. You'd better get out of here as soon as possible."

Zhao Shuang waved his hand and said impatiently.

"King Ji, let me try out your skills!"

At this time, another lower-level domain king walked out, named "Demon King Diao". He was only about 1.5 meters tall, but had four legs and four arms. Except for his face, his arms and legs were completely covered with dark green scales.

He comes from the Twin Mink half-human race. He has two faces, one male and one female, and four hands and four legs.

"King Ji, please give me some advice."

The words have not yet fallen.

"boom!!!"

"what!"

With another scream, the Demon King Diao was split into two, making a sound of unprecedented pain.

The bodies of a man and a woman were split apart.

With the powerful vitality of a semi-saint, he did not die immediately. Instead, he repaired his body along the wound at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, there were only two of them.

Split into two, two half-saints!
