God Emperor

Chapter 1210: The Blood Empress Hasn’t Died?

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Zhang Ruochen didn’t reject the position of the Hierarch. He agreed without complaint.

The Blood God Sect was an ancient sect with a long and rich heritage. If he could become Hierarch, he would receive cultivation resources that the average Saint would never get.

For example, divine blood.

There was a deity’s corpse in the Blood God Sect. According to legends, it was the corpse of the Blood God, the founder of the sect.

A deity’s corpse was like a giant treasure chest. It contained an immense amount of divine blood.

Other than that, each part of the god’s corpse was a treasure. The cloth that it was wrapped in, a piece of bone, a strand of hair... They were all treasures that Saints vied for.

Of course, Zhang Ruochen cared the most about the blood.

If I can receive a large amount of divine blood, I’ll be able to create more Blood Repression Runes.

The chaos in the upper level of the Blood God Sect had ended. Practically all of the infiltrators and humans who worked for the Immortal Vampires had been killed.

Of course, a large number of Saints had died as well. The Blood God Sect was greatly affected. Minor unrest in the middle and lower levels continued. It would take more time for everything to settle completely.

Elder Yuan Zhou suggested inviting Saints from all over the world for a coronation ceremony.

Zhang Ruochen rejected this. He thought that the Blood God Sect should continue sealing itself off and reorganize the inside, working to raise its abilities. They could hold the ceremony after they’d settled down and become stronger.

...

...

News of the battle at the Black Market’s headquarters spread. Not only did it shock Tiantai State, cultivators throughout the entire Kunlun’s Field were in uproar.

The imperial court and Black Market had worked together to kill more than 20 Saints of the Huangtian Tribe. This even included Sir Mu Qian, the golden-robed elder of the Immortal Pavilion, and the Empress of the Huangtian Tribe.

There were rumors that Time and Space Descendant Zhang Ruochen had participated in the battle, using the Clear Sky Bow and Shining Sun Arrow to kill the Huangtian Empress.

All forces of the Tiantai State went on alert. They were afraid that this unrest would affect them.

“More than 20 Saints died in a row. Even the Huangtian Tribe won’t be able to take this. More than half of their infiltrators in the central region should be gone now.”

The Huangtian Tribe’s main plan in the central region was related to the Blood God Sect. They wanted to use the sect as their base to destroy Tiantai State.

Now, their force in the Blood God Sect was completely taken out. They couldn’t cause any unrest in the central region anymore.

Many cultivators were analyzing the current situation. This included the Saint Lady of the distant Central Emperor City, the Ministry of War, Martial Market Bank, Black Market, Sacred Crypt Central, and Moon-Worship Demonic Sect.

They all tried to predict the upcoming changes to plan ahead.

“After taking out the infiltrators of Huangtian Tribe, Zhang Ruochen’s crisis should be averted, right?”

The Saint Lady stood beside the Heaven and Earth Chessboard. Seeing the various pieces disappear from the chessboard, a mesmerizing smile appeared in her pretty eyes.

Each Saint in the Kunlun’s Field was a chess piece on the board. When one died, a piece would disappear as well.

Boom!

An explosion came from the place that represented the Blood God Sect on the chessboard.

“What happened? Is the unrest in the Blood God Sect still not over?”

The Saint Lady’s eyes hardened. Activating her Spiritual Power, she immersed herself in the Heaven and Earth Chessboard to check which Saint had died.

Boom, boom.

Another portion of the chessboard exploded. At least 20 more Saints died.

The drastic changes of the board shocked the Saints of the Confucius Way. They all hurried over to the Lianzhu Mansion to ask the Saint Lady what had happened.

The Saint Lady didn’t understand either. According to the information she’d received, the inner conflicts of the Blood God Sect should have ended already. How could such an intense battle erupt again?

With so many Saints dying, one could only imagine how bloody the battle was.

“The Art Saint is in the Blood God Sect. He should be able to stop all chaos.”

“I don’t think so. Old Chu is very talented and can sweep the Saint Realm. However, the chessboard shows that a Saint King has been born. A Saint King is definitely not a small matter!”

“If the Saint King is our friend, then the chaos should settle. If it is foe, then the problems in the Blood God Sect are only the beginning. The rest of the Tiantai State will soon enter war and unrest.”

...

The Heaven and Earth Chessboard could only show the general situation. No one present knew what exactly had happened in the Blood God Sect. They could only wait and hope news would come quickly.

The Saint Lady was very nervous too. She bit her red lips and even stopped breathing.

She was worried for the Blood God Sect and Chu Siyuan. Of course, she was also worried for Zhang Ruochen. After all, Zhang Ruochen was in the center of the vortex. Any mishap would cause him to be shattered.

Whoosh!

A communication rune flew across the sky into the Lianzhu Mansion.

The Saint Lady’s eyes flashed. With a sweep of her sleeves, she formed a whirlpool of Qi. The communication rune flew into her hands. She started reading the content.

The various Confucians crowded around her. They guessed that the content must be news from the Blood God Sect.

The Saint Lady finished reading the rune. Her clear eyes blinked and she seemed to be much more relaxed. Smiling, she said, “It’s a message from Yue Shuzi, administrator of Tiantai State. The Blood God Sect indeed had another large unrest, but it’s settled already.”

Then the Saint Lady passed the communication rune to the others. Seeing the content, they all had thoughtful expressions.

“The horribly powerful Saint King is actually the Hierarch Madame, Qiu Yichi. How could she be working for the Immortal Vampires?”

“It has only been a few centuries, but Qiu Yichi has developed so many Saints and even secretly controlled the Blue Dragon Void World. Her methods aren’t the average ones. We’ve actually overlooked her in the past.”

The Saint Lady found it incredible too. “Qiu Yichi doesn’t belong to any of the ten major tribes and hasn’t interacted with the Immortal Pavilion. Who is she working for?”

The Saint Lady controlled Kunlun’s Field biggest network of information. Nothing could be hidden from her. If Qiu Yichi really interacted with the Immortal Vampires, there would be small clues no matter how hidden it was.

Sir Mei, leader of the Qin Sect, stood beside the Heaven and Earth Chessboard. He didn’t speak and just stared at the area representing the Blood God Sect. Then he pointed somewhere on the board.

“Look at what this place is.”

The Saint Lady and other Confucians all looked over at where he was pointing at.

“The Bottomless Abyss,” a Confucian said.

“Sect Leader, what do you mean?” someone asked, confused.

The Saint Lady’s eyes shone with terrifying light. Shocked, she said, “Sir Mei, do you think that Qiu Yichi is working for the Immortal Vampires because of the Bottomless Abyss?”

Sir Mei was solemn. He nodded and said, “When you went to the Shangguan Clan, Saint King Que gave you a piece of paper, pointing you to the Bottomless Abyss, correct?”

“Correct, but that paper might not have been written by him personally. It might have been a trap set by the Immortal Vampires.”

“At first, I thought so too,” Sir Mei said. “But Qiu Yichi’s appearance changed my mind. Perhaps, Saint King Que had really written the note. He might have pointed you to the Bottomless Abyss to tell you something else. The Bottomless Abyss might hide a shocking secret.”

“If the Bottomless Abyss really has a shocking secret,” the Saint Lady said, “why didn’t Saint King Que tell me directly?”

“What if he didn’t dare to?” Sir Mei asked.

One Confucian didn’t believe this. “Saint King Que reached the Saint King Realm 800 years ago. His cultivation is even more advanced now. What force in the world can silence him, other than the Empress?”

“For 800 years,” Sir Mei said, “Saint King Que has been deeply isolated. He rarely ever shows himself in public. In the last century, he’s completely disappeared. It’s like he’s dead. Isn’t his behavior hiding something? Maybe there really is a force stronger than the Empress suppressing him so that he doesn’t even dare to speak.”

“Stronger than the Empress?”

None of the present Confucians could keep calm. Their minds were greatly affected. Sir Mei had made it so obvious. It wasn’t that they were stupid. They’d already guessed it, but they didn’t dare say it out loud.

“Sir Mei thinks that the Blood Empress didn’t die 800 years ago?” the Saint Lady asked timidly. “She’s in the Bottomless Abyss? Qiu Chiyi is working for the Blood Empress?”

Another Confucian instantly refuted that. “Back then, the Blood Empress was already stronger than the nine emperors. She was basically undefeatable. If she really is still alive, she would’ve taken over the world. Why would she hide in the Bottomless Abyss?”

“Yes, the Blood Empress was a royal figure that shined with dazzling light. She almost wiped out the human race back then. If she’s really still alive, she couldn’t bear to stay hidden.”

The group wasn’t willing to believe this guess. If the Blood Empress was still alive, the human race wouldn’t be able to stop her, with the Empress missing.

“It’s only a guess. Don’t be nervous.” Sir Mei smiled and then continued, “The most important thing to do now is to ask that figure to capture Qiu Chiyi. As long as she’s captured, we’ll naturally find out the truth. Who is the most suitable?”

“Qiu Chiyi had just recently entered the Saint King Realm,” the Saint Lady said. “We should be able to capture her if we can ask Heavenly King Lingxiao.”
