Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 859: Chapter 859: Crisis in the Holy City

”How could the Barbarian Clan lose so easily! That Barbarian King is a Yin-Yang Realm powerhouse who is no weaker than the Sacred Emperor, and the leaders of his nine great tribes are also masters of the Cave Heaven Realm. The Green-eyed Clan has never gotten the better of them before; what exactly is going on now?”

The Sacred Emperor asked loudly.

This was also the question on everyone else’s mind.

The Green-eyed Clan could not possibly be this powerful.

Of course, more importantly, with the Barbarian Clan eradicated, the only opponent left on the Heavenly Dragon Continent would be the Sacred Dynasty, and naturally, the next target for attack would be the Sacred Dynasty.

How could the now corrupt and decadent Sacred Dynasty possibly withstand the onslaught of the Green-eyed Clan?

Would the Twelve Sects face the same tragedy they did in the days when they faced the True Demon Empire?

”Your Majesty, the Sacred Emperor, this subject is not entirely clear on the specifics, but there is a rumor that the Green-eyed Clan seems to have acknowledged the Yin-Yang Demon King of the old True Demon Empire as their king. This war can be said to be not so much the Green-eyed Clan attacking the Barbarian Clan, but rather a resurgence of the True Demon Empire!”

The words of Ji Mingfeng once again caused a sensation in the gathering.

The shadow of the True Demon Empire had always been an unfading fear for the Sacred Dynasty.

Who would have thought that after tens of thousands of years, the True Demon Empire would reappear?

”If this is true, it will be trouble. Whether the Barbarian Clan is annihilated or subdued, it will be a huge threat to our Sacred Dynasty!”

”That’s right. The True Demon Empire is ambitious; how could they overlook our Sacred Dynasty, a piece of fat meat?”

”But although our Twelve Sects are stronger than the Barbarian Clan’s nine great tribes, we are not much stronger. Can we really stand against the attacks from the Green-eyed Clan?”

”Why not just surrender? After all, being ruled by the True Demon Empire isn’t so bad.”

”Nonsense! The True Demon Empire’s policy towards the Sacred Dynasty was one of extermination. Unless you are willing to be their slaves, they will show no mercy to anyone. Do you really want humanity to become slaves of the True Demon Empire?”

At this moment, the Sacred Emperor seemed to have forgotten his enmity with Ling Xiao, after all, a national grudge is a bit greater than a family feud.

Besides, a single Ling Xiao could not ruin his rule.

But the True Demon Empire could definitely destroy everything he had.

He knew well what mattered more.

”What the Sacred Emperor said is extremely true, but given our strength, how could we possibly resist the invasion of the True Demon Empire? Are we to seek aid from the Divine Phoenix Continent?”

”Hehehe, you don’t need to go anywhere; today, this place will determine your life or death!”

Just then, the Palace Master of the Jade Water Divine Palace stood up, her originally pretty face now split into two expressions, one yin and one yang, masculine and feminine.

Not only that, but her terrifying aura spread out, enveloping the entire martial arts arena within it, extremely horrifying.

She was actually a practitioner of the Yin-Yang Realm, and her aura seemed no weaker than that of the Moon Lady.

”You are not the Palace Master of the Jade Water Divine Palace!”

The Sacred Emperor shouted, ”Who exactly are you?”

”Who am I? I am the very Yin-Yang Demon King you have been seeking, hehehe.”

The woman sneered coldly, with a mocking and ridiculing smile on her face.

”Now, I’m giving all of you a chance, either pledge allegiance to the True Demon Empire or die here!”

The icy voice was very bizarre, almost as if a man and a woman were speaking at the same time, sounding very strange.

”Hmph, just with you alone, you think you can annihilate our Sacred Dynasty?”

The Grand Holy Emperor snorted coldly and stepped forward.

His words were not without merit; although the Yin-Yang Demon King was a practitioner of the Yin-Yang Realm, there were no less than four Yin-Yang Realm practitioners on the side of the Sacred Dynasty.

Although Moon Lady was absent, the combined efforts of Grand Holy Emperor, Sacred Emperor, and Si Kong Zun were absolutely capable of contending with the Yin-Yang Demon King.

”One like me is more than enough, but, well, I did bring some helpers, after all. I can’t let you all die too disgraced.”

The Yin-Yang Demon King gave a slight smile as an enormous Yin-Yang Diagram appeared behind him; the diagram unfolded, and from within it, martial artists continuously emerged.

Most of these martial artists were from the Heavenly Realm Martial Artists. A few among them were Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists.

On the Heavenly Dragon Continent today, Yin Yang Realm Martial Artists represent an extreme rarity, with only a handful of them existing.

Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists are also very scarce, with barely about a couple dozen.

Yet, the Yin-Yang Demon King brought with him as many as seven or eight Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists all at once, and the rest comprised dozens of Heavenly Realm Martial Artists.

This was a clear display of his formidable forces.

The martial artists who stepped out of the Yin-Yang Diagram included not only the experts of the Green-eyed Clan, Ninja Clan, and Barbarian Clan, but also powerhouses from the Sea Race.

”Who would have thought the legend was actually true!”

”The True Demon Emperor emerges from the depths of the ocean, a member of the Sea Race!”

”So that means the information from the Storm Legion is also true!”

”Damn it!”

That the Sacred Dynasty had fallen to such a state was disheartening, to say the least.

Even at the height of the True Demon Empire, they never dared to lightly approach Holy City, but now a mere Yin-Yang Demon King had infiltrated the Holy City, seemingly intent on slaughtering all the high-ranking officials of the Twelve Sects and the genius disciples present.

”What are we afraid of! With the strength of our Sacred Dynasty and the Twelve Sects, these people are simply no match for us!”

Grand Holy Emperor cried out.

Many people were frightened out of their wits, but upon hearing Grand Holy Emperor’s words, they calmed down. Carefully analyzing the situation, they realized that although the enemy was formidable, the elites of the Twelve Sects were all present, ultimately concluding that defeat was not a possibility.

”Hahahaha, hahahahaha!”

The Yin-Yang Demon King burst into a maniacal laugh, ”What fools you all are. If I appear here, naturally, I have a surefire reason for victory. Listen to that old fella if you will, but I give you all one last chance to choose!

Will it be submission or death?”

Among the crowd, there were clearly those whose resolve was wavering, already contemplating surrender but afraid of being executed as traitors, so for the time being, they dared not make a fuss.

However, the majority had no intention of surrendering.

Within the Twelve Sects, regardless of one’s character, there were still many with spirit.

”The Green-eyed Clan only respects the Yin-Yang Demon King. If we join forces today to eliminate this guy, defeating the Green-eyed Clan, the Barbarian Clan, and the Ninja Clan will become effortless, providing an excellent opportunity to achieve a monumental feat!”

”Right. The enemy is outnumbered and weaker than us. What are we afraid of? If they dare to come here, let’s make sure they never return!”

”Kill!”

”Let’s fight for it!”

In just a moment, a consensus was reached amongst the high officials of the Twelve Sects present.

Ruling with might and influence was certainly preferable to being a lackey to others; frankly, this multiple-choice question was too simple.

With an order from the Sacred Emperor, the elites of the Twelve Sects gathered together, preparing to attack the Yin-Yang Demon King and his followers, determined to trap these intruders here completely.

”A bunch of idiots. I gave you all a chance,” sneered the Yin-Yang Demon King, ”Si Kong Zun, won’t you make your move?”

”Attack!”

Under the astonished and bewildered gazes of everyone present, Si Kong Zun’s fist pierced through the chest of the Sacred Emperor, who was seriously injured on the spot, nearly falling.
