Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Seeing the blood-red mushroom cloud from the explosion in the distance, Zhuge Chongguang realized that the matter in the new city was over. At Xuanyuan Chaoge's speed, he would probably be able to reach the old city soon. At this point, there was no need to waste any more time with that pseudo-celestial being inside.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Chongguang said, "It seems that the people you sent to assassinate the prince in Xincheng have been killed. Now it's your turn. I'll give you one last chance. If you don't surrender, you'll only face death."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Tongshen Sect turned ashen-faced. How did Zhuge Chongguang know that they had sent people to Xincheng?

Could it be...?

Zhuge Chongguang and his group knew about his and Hengyou Daoren's plan from the beginning, so they simply turned the tables and lured Hengyou Daoren into the trap.

Even if that's the case, Yancheng only has Zhuge Zhongguang as a pseudo-celestial being. Zhuge Zhongguang is right here now, so logically, Hengyou Daoist should be able to break into the new city no matter what.

They had considered the possibility that their plan would be discovered from the beginning. However, they thought that they had two pseudo-celestial beings on their side, while Yancheng only had one pseudo-celestial being, Zhuge Chongguang. Most importantly, Zhuge Chongguang was a scholar, and with his strength, he could at most only restrain their side.

Therefore, even if their scheme is exposed, it won't cause any major harm.

How could Hengyou Daoist be forced to self-destruct?

Was that blood-red cloud really formed by Hengyou Daoren's self-destruction?

Or is this caused by a mysterious weapon from the North?

The weapons of the Northern Kingdom are extremely powerful, capable of producing scenes like a martial artist self-destructing their dantian. They already knew this. At this moment, the Tong Shen Sect Leader could not determine whether it was Heng You Dao Ren who self-destructed his dantian or whether the Northern Kingdom had brought out a more powerful weapon.

Seeing that there was no movement inside the restaurant, Zhuge Chongguang said calmly, "Gentlemen, I have given you a chance. Since you are unwilling to surrender, then don't blame me."

Then Zhuge Chongguang said, "Attack!"

The next moment, more than a dozen shells flew toward the restaurant where the Master of the Divine Sect was located. Upon hearing the roar outside, the Master of the Divine Sect instantly came to his senses.

He immediately told the restaurant's servants, "Watch out for those iron balls!"

No sooner had the leader of the Divine Sect finished speaking than an iron ball exploded on the roof of the restaurant, instantly blasting a huge hole in it.

Immediately afterwards, countless shells poured into the restaurant through the large hole in the roof. In an instant, the restaurant was filled with explosions, screams, and cries of agony.

Seeing this scene, the leader of the Tongshen Sect could no longer restrain himself, picked up his broadsword and rushed straight towards Zhuge Chongguang.

Seeing a figure rush towards Zhuge Chongguang in an instant, Liang Zong quickly warned, "Grand Scholar, be careful!"

As soon as Liang Zong finished speaking, Zhuge Chongguang suddenly raised his hand. Immediately afterwards, golden energy appeared around Zhuge Chongguang's body, with countless poems flowing on it.

The leader of the Divine Sect struck Zhuge Chongguang's protective aura with a single slash.

The leader of the Divine Sect said viciously, "I want to see just how powerful you, this so-called Sage of Literature, really are!"

As he spoke, the Master of the Divine Sect gathered all his power and unleashed his ultimate technique.

"Eighteen Heavenly Slashes!!!"

Immediately, a purple light slashed directly at Zhuge Chongguang's protective aura. When the purple light touched Zhuge Chongguang's protective aura, a crack instantly appeared in it.

Upon seeing this, Liang Zong's expression changed drastically.

He thought to himself that Zhuge Chongguang was just a scholar. Although he was now a pseudo-celestial being, his strength was still far inferior to that of a martial artist. Zhuge Chongguang might not be a match for the man in front of him.

Liang Zong immediately attacked the leader of the Tong Shen Sect. Zhuge Chongguang was a Grand Scholar of the Northern Kingdom, and many of the Northern Kingdom's political affairs were handled by Zhuge Chongguang. He could not afford to be in trouble. If something happened to him, wouldn't the Northern King hold him, the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, responsible?

Just as Liang Zong was about to approach the Tongshen Sect Leader, the Tongshen Sect Leader unleashed a purple blade of energy that instantly slashed towards Liang Zong. The blade of energy was so fast that Liang Zong didn't even have time to react before it was already upon him.

Liang Zong hurriedly raised his sword to defend, but the moment the purple sword energy touched him, it cleaved the other man's sword away, and Liang Zong's body instantly pierced through more than a dozen houses.

Liang Zong immediately felt excruciating pain throughout his body, as if all the bones in his body were broken. He was incredibly shocked. Was this the power of a pseudo-celestial being?

He had already used all his strength to block the blow, but he still couldn't stop it.

At the same time, the leader of the Divine Sect was still frantically slashing at Zhuge Chongguang's protective aura. With each slash, the power would increase tenfold. Despite seeing the cracks in his protective aura growing larger and larger, Zhuge Chongguang's face remained calm.

At that moment, he raised his hand, waved it, and shouted, "Suppress!"

A surge of spiritual energy erupted from his body. When that golden spiritual energy touched the body of the Divine Master, he instantly felt unable to move, as if he were being imprisoned by something.

Zhuge Chongguang entered the Dao through literature, and while he was indeed inferior to martial artists in killing, it did not mean that he lacked ability.

The leader of the Tongshen Sect was stunned. He had not expected that Zhuge Chongguang's move would be so powerful, capable of instantly sealing all of his internal energy.

The Master of the Divine Sect hurriedly tried to break free of the restraints. At this moment, Zhuge Chongguang made a finger-flicking gesture towards the Master of the Divine Sect, "Attack!"

The next moment, a golden light shot out from Zhuge Chongguang's finger and instantly struck the body of the Tongshen Sect Master. The Tongshen Sect Master was blasted away and, just like Liang Zong earlier, crashed through more than a dozen houses in an instant.

However, this also allowed the Tongshen Sect Master's body to recover. After sensing the spiritual energy within his body, the Tongshen Sect Master leaped up. Although he had been injured by Zhuge Chongguang's attack, he was not in any life-threatening danger.

The leader of the Divine Sect spat out a mouthful of blood, then gripped his knife tightly and said, "I never expected that a frail scholar would possess such strength. I underestimated you!"

"I wonder if you can withstand this next move!"

As he spoke, the body of the Tongshen Sect Master vanished from the spot, turning into a blur as he rushed straight toward Zhuge Chongguang.

Just as his body was about to approach Zhuge Chongguang, he suddenly felt a powerful pressure that rendered his body unable to move.

The leader of the Tongshen Cult was immediately stunned.

Who released this oppressive aura? How can there be such terrifying oppressive aura?

The next moment, Xuanyuan Chaoge and Lu Chen appeared in front of Zhuge Chongguang.

Upon seeing that the newcomers were a young man and an old man, and that both of them exuded an aura no less powerful than that of a pseudo-celestial being, the Tong Shen Sect Leader was once again stunned.

Two more fake celestial beings?

How come there are so many pseudo-celestial beings who have entered the Dao Integration stage in the Northern Kingdom? Didn't the Northern Kingdom only experience one strange phenomenon?

What's going on?

Where did these pseudo-celestial beings come from?

wrong……

Just when the Master of the Divine Sect thought that the two people who came were pseudo-celestial beings, he suddenly realized that the aura emanating from the old man was even more terrifying, and this could not possibly be the aura of a pseudo-celestial being.

He himself was a pseudo-celestial being, and he knew very well what kind of power a pseudo-celestial being could unleash. The fact that the old man's power could suppress him to the point of being unable to breathe meant that his strength far exceeded his own.

Heavens... Heavenly beings!!!

That was a celestial being!

The face of the Divine Master turned deathly pale instantly! (End of Chapter)
