Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1790: 455: Counting the Spoils, the Shock of the Four Great Immortal Sects (part 4)

The Qingyun Sect Leader felt a wave of relief washing over him, grateful for his earlier choice to cultivate a friendship with Lu Changsheng.

Becoming an enemy of the Great Dream Immortal City for no reason would have been a disastrous mistake.

Still, after reflecting on the situation, he made his way to Caiyun Peak to consult Xiao Xiyue, hoping she might possess deeper insights regarding the Great Dream Immortal City.

He left instructions that upon Lu Changsheng’s return, he should be invited to the Qingyun Hall immediately to discuss important matters.

Meanwhile, at the Heavenly Sword Sect.

The Sect Master’s expression turned grave as he processed the report. After recovering from his initial shock, he hurried to relay the information to Absolute Sword True Monarch, the Nascent Soul Cultivator currently guarding the sect.

"A quasi-fourth rank demon beast, a top-tier supreme treasure, and the hunting of a fourth rank Demon King!"

Despite his Nascent Soul Cultivation, Absolute Sword True Monarch found it difficult to remain calm while reading the news.

The Void Kun was a legendary and exceptionally rare spatial demon beast, gifted with the Power of the Void.

Consequently, the Great Dream Immortal City’s success in slaying a fourth rank Demon King was a monumental feat. It proved that their supreme treasure possessed enough power to threaten Nascent Soul Cultivators, or perhaps even the Nascent Soul Spirit Body itself!

"I wonder if this supreme treasure held by the Great Dream City Lord is a high-grade spiritual treasure or a one-time use secret weapon..."

Absolute Sword True Monarch’s gaze grew heavy as he pondered the possibilities.

If the City Lord’s treasure functioned like the [Myriad Ghosts Blood Pool] of the Yiming Ghost Sect, the situation would be incredibly precarious.

Supported by the Immortal City’s defensive formation and such a treasure, the City Lord could likely defeat or even kill a Nascent Soul True Lord while simply staying within his walls!

The threat would be significantly lower if the item was merely a powerful, single-use exotic treasure.

However, he suspected the former was more likely.

A person wouldn't typically be so bold and public with their power if they only possessed a one-time secret weapon.

"Perhaps their goal was simply the demon core and the materials from the Void Kun?"

Since Nascent Soul Cultivators begin to master the Power of the Void, such materials are priceless to them.

The remains of a Void Kun could not only deepen a True Lord's understanding of spatial power but also serve as the primary components for refining space-type magic treasures to boost their strength.

After a long silence, Absolute Sword True Monarch looked at the Sect Master and commanded, "Iron Sword, send a messenger to the Great Dream City Lord. Inform him that the Heavenly Sword Sect will definitely attend the whale-hunting banquet."

The news was unsettling enough to make him restless.

However, Xuanjian True Monarch was currently away in the Endless Wilderness, awaiting the opening of the [Vast Sand Illusion Realm].

With the responsibility of guarding the sect on his shoulders, Absolute Sword True Monarch could not personally visit the Immortal City at this time.

Furthermore, since the invitation specified the banquet would occur after the [Vast Sand Illusion Realm] concluded, there was no reason to rush and risk offending the mysterious City Lord.

"Understood,"

The Sect Master bowed in agreement, realizing that final decisions should wait until Xuanjian True Monarch returned.

Xuanjian True Monarch was not only a formidable combatant but also a respected figure skilled in the art of divination.

Upon his return, he would be able to analyze the clues and the details of the battle to deduce the true nature of these two new City Lords.

...

While Jiang Country was reeling from the news of the Demon King's fall, a different scene unfolded in Liang Country.

Deep within the Beast God Mountain, at the Nether Moon Holy Temple.

"Your Highness Holy Maiden, I beg for your mercy! If you let me live, I will serve you as your dog!"

Bound by glowing rune chains, a muscular middle-aged man knelt on a stone platform, trembling with terror as he looked at the woman standing before him.

His eyes were fixed on a pair of flawless, long, and powerful legs.

They were masterpieces of nature—exceptionally long, glowing with a healthy luster like mutton fat jade, and radiating a sense of hidden strength. Every curve was perfectly sculpted, making it nearly impossible for anyone to look away.

The woman wore a dark purple short skirt that seemed designed specifically to showcase those stunning legs.

"A dog? You think you are worthy?"

The Holy Maiden was tall and lithe, her attire daring and minimalist. She wore only a dark purple halter top on her upper body.

This left her toned, snowy-white arms and her firm, smooth abdomen completely exposed. Her graceful waist curved into a silhouette of pure power.

Her chest, though partially hidden by the purple fabric, was strikingly ample, as if it might burst free at any moment.

She looked down at the captive with cold disdain. Suddenly, her leg lashed out like a whip, glowing with purple light. The kick sent the man flying, coughing up blood as he crashed into the distance.

"You’er."

She lifted her chin slightly, her red lips parting to speak. Her beautiful face was a mask of arrogance and noble pride.

"Roar!"

A dark purple Heavenly Wolf nearby let out a low, menacing growl, baring its fangs at the fallen man.

Watching the beast, the woman licked her lips, her eyes filled with a cold, enchanting light. She was the picture of untamed beauty.

She turned away, her long legs carrying her across the hall with a swaying, captivating gait. Her long, dark purple hair trailed behind her, emphasizing her wild and rebellious nature.

"Your Highness Holy Maiden!"

A subordinate met her as she exited the grand hall.

The man knelt, his throat going dry at the sight of her legendary legs. He quickly looked down to show respect and spoke hurriedly, "Your Highness, I have news. In Jiang Country, a Core Formation Family known as the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family is keeping a third rank Nether Moon Wolf. This wolf has reportedly undergone a bloodline mutation or atavism, reaching the third rank in under a century. Its combat strength is said to be remarkable..."
