Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2209: Chapter 249: Shouzhe Breaks Through to the Divine Power Territory

…

The Yinsha Sect, on the borders of West Jin and South Qin, near the edge of the West Sea, a giant palace stands proudly in the afterglow of the sunset.

This palace is built tall and majestic, and the decoration is ornate and resplendent, exuding a sense of luxury.

This palace is the separate palace constructed by the Yinsha Sect for the Demon Lord Xietong.

At this moment.

In the garden of the separate palace, the true form of the Demon Lord Xietong is sitting in the pavilion drinking tea, his gaze occasionally drifting towards the sky.

He is evidently waiting for something.

At this moment, it’s been some time since the clone was summoned by the Demon Lord, but recalling the details of the summon passed back from his clone, he remains excited.

It’s worth noting that he originally prompted his clone to pay respects to the Demon Lord just with a “give-it-a-try” attitude, succeeding would be great, failing wouldn’t lose anything.

He never expected the Demon Lord would actually intervene.

It’s worth noting that the “Sacred Gu Codex” he desires is a half-step Immortal Sutra. If obtained, it would greatly benefit the entire Real Demon Palace; ultimately, however, it remains a codex important to him but not necessarily to other Demon Kings, much less to the Demon Lord.

As for Da Qian, although it has developed rapidly in recent years, it is but an affiliate of the Immortal Dynasty and may not be regarded by the Demon Lord.

Therefore, the Demon Lord’s intervention was entirely unexpected.

He knew in his heart that whatever prompted the Demon Lord to act must be no small affair, and behind it must be deeper machinations, and he, at best, is just one piece in the game.

But that doesn’t matter, as long as his plan succeeds, that’s enough.

Over the years, he has investigated thoroughly. That “Sacred Gu Codex” is now held by a woman named Wang Luo Jing.

This woman hails from the Wang family of Changning, joined the Academic Palace under Lingyun Holy Ground at a young age, and later joined the Sacred Gu Clan as an outsider, becoming the new generation Saintess of the Sacred Gu Clan, and led the Sacred Gu Clan to pledge allegiance to Da Qian, officially becoming part of Da Qian.

Now, she’s using the Sacred Gu Clan as a base, already preparing to establish “Sacred Gu Holy Land,” her ambition couldn’t be greater.

This woman must not be underestimated.

And what he needs to do is to lead an army, invade Da Qian, capturing vast territories of Da Qian.

It’s worth noting, the Sacred Gu Clan is located to the southwest of Tianfu County, not too far from the border battlefields. When the Anti-Qian Army reaches the Sacred Gu Clan, it’s hard to believe she won’t return to oversee.

By that time, he will find a way to kill her and seize the “Sacred Gu Codex.”

Previously, he might have had only a fifty percent chance of success, but with the Demon Lord’s involvement, it directly increased to ninety-nine percent.

Especially since the Demon Lord specifically bestowed a secret treasure for this purpose.

Just thinking about that secret treasure makes the Demon Lord Xietong’s heart burn with desire, wishing he could take the secret treasure and charge at Da Qian right now.

However, the Kunmu Giant Vessel is not yet completed, and the secret treasure is still with his clone.

But it’s happening soon.

After leaving the Demon Lord’s side, the clone quickly transmitted the detailed summon details and received the secret treasure from the Demon Lord, speeding over here to deliver the secret treasure to him as soon as possible.

And just two hours ago, he received communication from his clone again, saying he’s about to arrive.

Thus, the scene in the garden pavilion, of him waiting, came to be.

Once again taking a sip of cold tea, Demon Lord Xietong waited restlessly, yet his clone had yet to arrive, his child-like face finally showing a hint of impatience.

Judging from the communication sent by his clone, he should be here by now~ Could something have gone wrong on the way?

Just as worry gnaws at him.

Suddenly.

A streak of black light appears in the distant sky.

The speed of this light is astonishingly fast, like a meteor, or lightning, tearing through the clouds, in just a blink of an eye it grows visible to the naked eye.

It’s a flying carriage drawn by Black Dragons. The carriage itself is not overly flamboyant or luxurious, but the two Black Dragons pulling it are both Level Seven, gracefully moving through the clouds like two streaks of black lightning.

The speed of the flying carriage comes from them.

It’s here!

Ecstatic, the Demon Lord Xietong immediately puts down the teacup, reaches out and tears through space, disappearing into the sky, appearing in the distant sky in an instant.

In no time, the man and the flying carriage meet successfully in mid-air.

“Greetings, Demon Lord!”

The carriage curtains are lifted, several silhouettes fly out and bow respectfully to the true form of Demon Lord Xietong.

There are three silhouettes, differing in age and gender, all wearing uniform scarlet robes, the aura they emit like rivers flowing, powerful and unending, not to be underestimated.

It’s clear these three belong to the Divine Realm Powerhouses under Demon Lord Xietong’s Palace.

However, Demon Lord Xietong’s attention isn’t on them, he waves his hand casually to signal them to rise, eyes fixed on the flying carriage.

Then, from within the flying carriage, another child-like figure emerges, heading towards him.

An identical figure emerges, same in height and appearance, same intricate features, except the aura slightly weaker.

Clearly, this is his clone.

Facing the true form, the clone offers a token bow with no extra words, transforms into a blood light, and merges into his body.
