"Obeying Mister Prime Minister is your only way to live."Just as Payton was still suspicious, Christopher called out loudly, "What are you waiting for? Surrender and submit to the Martial Alliance! Are you really not afraid of death?"The sect masters' chests thudded at the words.Whew! Just then, Payton was the first to return to his senses. "Sect Masters. The Prime Minister has many tricks up his sleeves, and we must not succumb to them. I did a quick check just now, and my body feels perfectly fine. He was scaring us.""We've got nothing to be afraid of since there are so many of us. Let's rush out of here."Buzz!As the final word rang through the air, Payton exploded his energy as he drew his long sword and charged toward the guards before him.Payton was certain that he had not been poisoned and Yusof was merely scaring them. Yet he did not know that the poison in the wine was a new one he had just tried out last night called the 'Spiritgone Wisp'.The poison was color

Darryl had never been to the Vector Mountains but vaguely knew where they were located. After an hour of flying and avoiding a good number of patrol guards, he had finally arrived.Whew!Just then, Darryl hovered in the air as he took in the sight of the Vector Mountains with a deep breath, hardly able to contain his awe.All that could be seen was an endless stretch of mountains that seemed to go on for thousands and thousands of miles.A tall peak stood where the mountains began, surrounded by nine smaller mountains.The tip of the peak went into the clouds. There was a door at its foot that went straight through it.It was obvious that the Ancient Ancestor was cultivating beyond that door.Darryl did not feel the slightest bit of joy upon discovering this, frowning to himself instead. That was because a gigantic barrier completely blocked off the peak.On top of that, there were many formations laid around the barrier. The formations were interconnected, and setting one off

"Ladies!"Sensing the Goddesses' displeasure, Darryl took a deep breath before explaining patiently, "There are many, many formations hidden around the barrier. One wrong move could activate the formation."To tell the truth, Apollo's analysis had been right. Based on how the formation was set, its weak points were southwest and northwest. Yet she did not know that Empress Heidi had built the barrier like that on purpose.Darryl had looked through the barrier thoroughly and saw that there was a Skyfire Formation southwest and northwest of the barrier, as well as a Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder Formation…Under these circumstances, the consequences of the Goddesses' attack would be unthinkable.To tell the truth, the Goddesses were highly-skilled, just inexperienced, from spending most of their lives cultivating.Formations?Apollo and Selene's expressions shifted at the words, furrowing their brows in suspicion.Soon enough, Selene was the first to return to her senses to say

Ha ha… Darryl was unspeakably smug at Empress Heidi's silence.At last, Empress Heidi returned to her senses as she said coldly, "I'm not going to waste my time. You're finished today."As she spoke, Empress Heidi looked at the Goddesses again. "Apollo, Selene. I've always treated you two well. It's fine that you don't appreciate me for it, but now you've gone and formed an alliance with Darryl.""I'm going to give you one last chance now to surrender to me and do as I say, or it'll be too late."Her voice was soft, but her aura was powerful and did not leave any room for retaliation."That's enough!"Just as the words rang through the air, Selene spoke up coldly at once, "You can drop the act, Apollo and I will never support you. You don't deserve to take over the Godly Region in the slightest."Apollo piped up as well. "Yes. You're ruthless and cunning, daring to go as far as setting up a barrier where Master was cultivating. How would we be on your side?"Her words rang th

Elder Ubaid did his best to calm down in the face of the situation, staring at the figure clad in black. "Are you… are you Yusof's men?"He was no fool.The pupils who had gone looking for Yusof had gone missing one by one, and he himself had been ambushed now. It was obvious that the figures clad in black had been sent by Yusof.Ho ho!The leader of the black figures did not respond, scoffing instead as he waved a hand. "Kill him!"The surrounding figures exploded with internal energy at the order, charging toward Elder Ubaid.Whew!Elder Ubaid took a deep breath at the sight before him. He did not hesitate, drawing his long sword and channeling his internal energy to meet them.In the blink of an eye, a fierce battle was launched between both sides. All that could be seen was Elder Ubaid weaving through the air deftly and swiftly, not losing to the attackers around him in the slightest.The leader of the black figures smirked at this. "You sure are the elder of the Elixir Se
