Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 122 The Situation: Xiao Family's Ancient Jade

The outside world was unaware of what happened at the Gate of Life and Death, but the news that Yun Yun broke through to the Dou Zong level at Yun Shan's funeral spread throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire.

Those guys who were initially itching to cause trouble because of Yunshan's sudden death suddenly fell silent.

They never expected that Yun Yun would break through to the Dou Zong realm at this time. While feeling lingering fear, they were also quite relieved.

If Yunshan hadn't died suddenly, then Yunlan Sect would have two Dou Zongs. With two Dou Zongs in one sect, who could rival the power of Yunlan Sect?

Besides the news of Yun Yun breaking through to the Dou Zong level, the news that Yun Yun led the Yunlan Sect to break away from the Jia Ma Empire also spread throughout Jia Ma. At the same time, Yun Yun also declared that she would go to the Tagor Desert in three days to solve the "snake problem".

Such arrogant words made the world even more convinced that Yun Yun had indeed broken through to the Dou Zong level, after all, Queen Medusa was a Dou Zong powerhouse!

The continuous declarations have put the entire Gama Empire in a state of extreme tension, especially the Gama Empire's royal family and the three major families.

royalty.

Inside the main hall, Yao Ye frowned, his eyes filled with a solemn expression.

Yun Yun's breakthrough to the Dou Zong realm was truly unexpected by Yao Ye, but what shocked her the most was that Yun Yun, who was always gentle, easy to talk to, and unambitious, would actually issue so many orders in succession.

Although Yun Yun didn't explicitly state it, Yao Ye could sense the core thinking behind all the orders she issued.

"If your Jiama royal family can't resolve this trouble, then let the Yunlan Sect take your place!"

"Yun Yun's breakthrough to the Dou Zong realm was likely triggered by the death of Yun Shan. Now that she has publicly announced her withdrawal from the Yunlan Sect, she probably has some grand ambitions ahead," Elder Xing said with a solemn expression.

"I know."

Yao Ye closed his eyes, rubbed his temples, and then picked up a memorial.

This is a memorial from Mittelten Mountain.

With Yunlan Sect's actions, the alliance that the Mittel family had just formed is likely to fall apart.

The most crucial reason why the various families developed ambitions was Yunshan's death.

After all, without Dou Zong, everyone is Dou Huang. If you can make a move in this game, why can't I?

But now that Yun Yun has entered the Dou Zong realm, the major families will probably have no choice but to revert to their original state and continue to submit to the tyranny of the Yunlan Sect.

In this memorial, Mittel Tengshan expressed his attitude, stating that everyone has a responsibility for the rise and fall of the nation, and that as the head of the Mittel family, he was willing to donate ten million gold coins for military expenses.

There are many more such memorials.

The Nalan family, the Mu family, and other families also contributed a considerable amount of money.

Even the president of the Alchemists' Guild, Fama, directly announced that all the pills in the Alchemists' Guild's warehouses would be supplied to the royal family at an 80% discount, with priority given to the warriors on the front lines.

After Yun Yun gave a series of orders, these powerful families finally began to take action.

But can this force alone really win the war?

Although these forces have all expressed their support, they have mostly only contributed money and have not sent any powerful figures to support the front lines.

The combined forces of the three empires are no joke, not to mention the ever-watchful Queen Medusa. Unless Yun Yun can truly deal with Queen Medusa, the Gama Empire has no chance of victory under these internal and external troubles!

Moreover, even if this war is won... the Gama Empire will likely undergo a complete upheaval afterward.

"Master Guhe, is there any news from Haibodong?" Yaoye asked.

"Since Yunshan's burial, Guhe has announced his seclusion, and I have been refused entry to visit him several times. As for Hai Bodong, he is still in the capital and often meets with representatives of those powerful families. Xiao Yan, on the other hand, left the capital yesterday."

"leave?"

"Xiao Yan has been away for a long time. Now that he has finished dealing with the Yunlan Sect's affairs, he naturally wants to go back and see his clansmen."

"Xiao Yan... wait, Elder Xing, I remember Xiao Yan was still a student at Canaan Academy, right?"

"Yes, Xiao Yan enrolled in Canaan Academy back in Wutan City, but he took a long leave of absence, which is now two years ago." Elder Xing paused slightly and said, "Taking a two-year leave of absence right after enrolling, this kid is truly one of a kind."

"Canaan Academy..."

As Yao Ye pondered the term, a sudden thought struck her.

"Regardless of who wins or loses, it will be a disaster for the Gama royal family. The best outcome would be a lose-lose situation, but even so, the future path of the royal family will be extremely difficult."

"Elder Xing, could you please visit Master Guhe again for me and tell him that if he's willing to help us refine the Hunyuan Bone-Sculpting Pill, my royal family is willing to appoint Master Guhe as our Imperial Preceptor!"

"Imperial Preceptor..." Elder Xing paused for a moment, then said, "I understand. Your Highness, please take care and get some rest."

"Go ahead, Elder Xing, I'm fine."

Old Master Xing respectfully withdrew, leaving only Yao Ye alone in the empty hall.

"A Dou Zong expert... If my royal family could have a Dou Zong expert, we wouldn't be in this situation..." Yao Ye murmured, his eyes filled with weariness.

She could no longer see a future for the royal family; after this battle, the Gama Empire was bound to change.

And she, as the sole heir of the Gama Empire, will likely also...

Seemingly having made up her mind, Yao Ye suddenly spoke up and ordered, "Someone, summon Yao Yue!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

A rustling sound came from outside the hall. Yao Ye pursed her red lips, her eyes filled with determination. After a moment, she sighed and turned her gaze back to the memorial.

About fifteen minutes later, a sound came from outside the hall.

Yao Ye subconsciously looked up and immediately saw a beautiful and graceful figure skipping and hopping into the hall.

The woman was wearing a purple robe with silver patterns, and a purple sash tied around her slender waist, which perfectly accentuated her small waist.

She didn't seem to be very old; her delicate features subtly revealed an innate noble air.

A slight smile graced her pretty face, giving her an air of elegance and tranquility. However, a mischievous glint occasionally flashed in her watery eyes, revealing that she was not as quiet as she appeared.

Most importantly, this person's face actually resembled Yao Ye's by seven or eight points, only more youthful.

This woman is none other than the little princess of the imperial family, Yao Ye's younger sister!

"Sister, what's up? I'm currently studying medicinal formulas, and I feel like I'll be able to refine a fourth-grade elixir soon!"

Yao Yue smiled as she looked at Yao Ye, her eyes filled with pride.

At such a young age, he is about to reach the threshold of a fourth-grade alchemist. In the entire Jia Ma Empire, only Liu Ling, the disciple of Dan Wang Gu He, can be considered comparable to him. He has reason to be proud.

"Moon, you'll have to stop refining pills for the next couple of days. I've enrolled you in Canaan Academy. Judging by the time, it should be the start of the semester in a couple of days. You can start your studies there now."

"Canaan Academy?!"

Yao Yue's face stiffened, her voice suddenly rising, her pretty face full of refusal: "I don't want to go! Our royal academy is no worse than Canaan Academy, and besides, I need to refine medicine, I..."

"My mind is made up. There's no need to say more. Go back and pack your things tonight. Tomorrow I'll have someone take you directly to Canaan Academy."

Yao Ye spoke calmly, her tone leaving no room for argument: "Don't even think about running away. I'll have Captain Liu keep an eye on you."

"I……"

Yao Yue pouted and lowered her head helplessly: "What's going on? Why did this happen all of a sudden..."

……

Tagor Desert, the holy city of the snake people.

temple.

As the center of the Serpent People, many of them sat quietly in the temple, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at the red-clad woman wearing a crown at the head of the table, not daring to make the slightest sound.

The woman narrowed her eyes slightly, her slender fingers tapping on the armrest beside her, one tap after another. Her rose-red lips were slightly pursed, exuding a bewitching aura.

Yet, a chilling glint flashed in those indifferent eyes, and anyone who inadvertently caught a glimpse of it felt a cold sweat pour down their back.

Then he quickly looked away, not daring to look directly at her.

Who else besides Queen Medusa could have such prestige among the snake people?

"What's the current situation with the Gama royal family?"

The silence in the temple lasted for a long time before Queen Medusa finally stopped tapping her fingers and spoke softly.

As Queen Medusa spoke, everyone in the temple couldn't help but straighten up. Yue Mei, who was on the left, stood up and replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, the Gama royal family is currently in dire straits. In order to resist the invasion of the three kingdoms, Jia Xingtian has already sent the Nether Sea Dragon Beasts to the front line."

"However, the Nether Sea Flood Dragon has long been weakened by years of war, and its strength has been greatly reduced. It is almost impossible for two Dou Huangs to stop the three-nation alliance."

"Your Majesty, the Gama Empire is currently exhausted from fighting on the front lines. Why don't we expand our territory once again?"

"Yes, Your Majesty! Now that Yunshan has died suddenly, there is no one within the Gama Empire who can rival Your Majesty. This is the perfect opportunity for our Snake-People to expand!"

Mobas, the leader of the Ink Serpent Clan, spoke in a deep, resonant voice. These words quickly garnered praise from many high-ranking members of the Serpent Clan.

The Serpent People have now occupied several human cities around the Tagle Desert, and even the northern part of the Monster Mountain Range has been brought under Medusa's control.

With the Gama royal family currently preoccupied with frontline battles, they could easily expand their territory and swallow up the entire Monster Mountain Range, and even the northwestern and northeastern provinces of the Gama Empire!

After all, with a Dou Zong Medusa, several Dou Huangs, and more than a dozen Dou Wangs, the current Gama Empire simply does not have any force capable of resisting them!

Hearing the excited words of those below, Medusa did not speak, but closed her eyes to rest, as if waiting for something.

A moment later, Medusa suddenly opened her eyes, and a jade token appeared in her slender, jade-like hand.

The jade token rang slightly, emitting a strange fluctuation of fighting spirit. The next moment, Queen Medusa frowned and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

"All commanders, heed my command!"

Upon hearing this, the snake-people in the hall were startled and turned to look at Queen Medusa with serious expressions.

"The eight leaders command all tribes. Flower Snake, in coordination with the elders, will take stock of all resources within the tribe and announce the Queen's decree to all her people."

"Starting today, our entire clan will migrate!"

"Wh-what?"

"Migration?"

"Your Majesty, this..."

Upon hearing this, the snake people were all dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief, as if they were hallucinating.

Migration?

Why migrate when the Serpent People are currently in such a favorable situation?

Flame Thorn, who had a slightly fiery temper, looked completely puzzled and asked directly.

"Why, Your Majesty? With our current strength, we could easily seize a larger territory, or even occupy the entire Gama Empire. Why must we migrate now, and as a whole clan at that..."

"This is an order, Flamethorn! Do you not even obey my command?"

Medusa's expression turned slightly cold, and the leaders and powerful figures of the snake people immediately showed fear, kneeling on one knee and saying that they dared not.

Seeing this, Medusa snorted softly, not blaming anyone too much.

She certainly understood what the leaders meant. With the current strength of the snake people, the Yunlan Sect and the Jiama Royal Family were nothing to mention. They could completely occupy the entire Jiama Empire.

However, this would contradict Lin Ran's plan.

According to Lin Ran, the Gama Empire is Yun Yun's territory, while her own kingdom is located in the Mulan Empire. This is why Medusa is now ordering the snake people to migrate as a whole.

"We understand the thoughts of our commanders, but this matter is the result of discussions between Her Majesty the Queen and ourselves. Do you all understand?"

Before Medusa could speak, the four elders, their bodies hunched over, slowly stepped into the hall.

Upon seeing the four elders, the snake people immediately became solemn and showed respect.

The elders of the snake people are indeed extremely revered among them. Although they are subordinate to the snake woman queen, if the four elders make a decision together, even Queen Medusa would not be able to resist.

The fact that this order for the entire clan to migrate was jointly issued by Her Majesty the Queen and the four elders left the snake people with no more doubts and dispelled all their so-called suspicions.

Faced with the shared will of the Queen and the Elders, the Serpent People didn't need to have too many other complicated ideas.

"Alright, enough talk, just do it."

Queen Medusa stood up and said calmly, "The journey is long. We will have to cross the Black Corner Region and enter the Mulan Empire. Although I and the elders are here, you commanders must also pay close attention."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

……

After bidding farewell to Hai Bodong and the others, Xiao Yan did not head directly to Canaan Academy, but instead flew towards the direction of Wutan City.

He has been away for more than two years. If he goes directly to Canaan Academy, he doesn't know how much longer it will take. To be honest, Xiao Yan is a little homesick.

With Yao Chen captured, Xiao Yan felt as if he had lost all support. At this moment, the most important thing to him was not strength or resources, but his family.

He wanted to have a good talk with his family and clansmen.

The distance between the capital and Wutan City spans almost half of the empire. Even with Xiao Yan's flying speed, it would take at least two or three days to reach such a vast territory.

Fortunately, the three-year agreement has now been completed, and Xiao Yan has also broken away from the life he used to live by the clock. He has come a long way without any constraints or psychological burdens, and he is now taking it easy and enjoying himself.

Xiao Yan had never truly enjoyed such a leisurely life since the three-year agreement began.

Of course, although the journey was easy, Xiao Yan did not enjoy all the sightseeing. He would stop in each city he passed through to look for the medicinal herbs he needed. What should have been a three-day journey took him a full week.

Once he could see Wutan City in the distance, Xiao Yan ended his flight early and strode into the city.

He walked through the city gate, passing through the somewhat dark gate passage, and then the sunlight suddenly shone brightly before his eyes. Xiao Yan looked up slightly, and the intersecting streets that exuded a sense of familiarity and warmth came into view.

Just as Xiao Yan stepped into the city, a figure slowly emerged from the space above Wutan City, gazing at the thin figure from afar with a solemn expression.

"What a powerful aura! The sect leader was right. This kid is indeed protected by other powerful figures besides his teacher. Judging from his aura, he is at least at the Venerable level... If it weren't for the sect leader's protection, I would probably have been killed by this powerful figure back in the Yunlan Sect."

"But what exactly is this thing, that the sect leader values ​​it so much..."

With a slight movement of his palm, an antique-looking box appeared in his hand.

With a slight movement of his fighting spirit, the box opened, revealing a piece of emerald green jade lying quietly inside.

After examining it for a while, Han Feng still couldn't figure it out, so he had no choice but to put it back into his storage ring.

Looking at that thin figure, Han Feng revealed a sinister smile, and his figure slowly merged into the space.

"Don't blame your senior brother for being too cruel. The sect leader once said that enough hatred and anger are the greatest driving force for a person's growth."

"My dear junior brother, I hope you can grow up quickly with the surprises your senior brother has given you."

"Hehehe..."
