As time went by, the night that shrouded the royal city gradually thinned.
Dawn breaks!
Standing quietly on the thick, majestic blue stone walls of the royal city, Tian Qingwu gazed intently ahead.
Within her crumbling and abandoned Creation Foundation, true energy constantly surged and crashed about, each burst of energy bringing excruciating pain serving as a reminder—
As long as one is willing to burn through their foundation and fall into a lower realm, they can still briefly touch that Realm of Creation stands proudly at the peak of the Divine Continent!
To once again become the renowned Aoki True Lord, famous throughout the Central Continent!
"Has there been any unusual activity outside the capital since last night?"
As Tian Qingwu turned around, the cold light reflected from the Iron Face swept across the brow bone of the Dragon Cavalry Guard.
The old general, who had followed her for over a thousand years, immediately clasped his hands in a fist salute, and his armor emitted a clanging sound like rusty iron scraping against each other.
"Reporting to the Palace Master, the Heavenly Net Forbidden Ritual Array has not shown any ripples."
"That's fine."
Tian Qingwu's voice remained steady, but his brows unconsciously relaxed slightly.
Although the three Dragon Cavalry Guards of the royal city only possessed combat strength at the late stage of the Divine Connection Realm.
However, when it comes to sensitivity to changes in the battlefield situation, even some True Lord who have just entered the Creation Realm would be ashamed of their inferiority.
Since none of them noticed anything unusual, it means that the True Lord Jiuyin most likely did not actually appear in the surrounding area.
Tian Qingwu closed her eyes and gradually sorted out her thoughts.
Just a little bit more...
The Central Continent Director of the Celestial Observatory will arrive in the capital today, and all she needs to do during this time is ensure the stability of the defenses here.
Otherwise, if the True Lord Jiuyin were to suddenly attack the city, and the three Dragon Cavalry Guards were unable to withstand it, then Elder Ye would not be the only one whose life would be threatened.
There are also hundreds of millions of ordinary people within the royal city.
Therefore, even if we fall into another predicament, we must ensure the stability of this royal city and its fortifications!
Tian Qingwu took a slight step, and his figure suddenly soared into the sky.
Following the sweep of Divine Consciousness across the vast territory, all that could be seen were crows startled into flight from the morning mist.
She then began to survey the territory thousands of miles beyond the capital.
"..."
But what Tian Qingwu didn't know was...
With the blessing of the "Heavenly Net Forbidden Ritual Array", the Dragon Cavalry Guard were indeed extremely sensitive to the unfamiliar aura around them, and the True Lord Jiuyin could not escape their perception.
The problem is that the True Lord Jiuyin is a genuine True Lord Great Demon.
Its transformative power far surpasses the current defensive capabilities of the royal city.
Ordinary citizens of the capital were unaware of these high-level power struggles.
The only signs of an impending storm could be sensed from the battle flags fluttering in the wind above the city gate and the iron armor gleaming in the sunlight.
The noisy atmosphere has decreased compared to the past.
After an unknown amount of time, in a street or alleyway unnoticed by anyone...
An ordinary-looking resident of the capital stepped out of his house and began to walk calmly toward the location of the Heavenly Supervision Department.
True Lord Jiuyin perfectly restrained the restless Demonic Power within his body, sensing the "Heavenly Net Forbidden Ritual Array" constantly operating above the royal city, and Tian Qingwu rapidly traversing above the clouds.
With a slight smile, he remarked, "That's really thoughtful of you."
However, it still shows a bit too much disrespect to Great Demon in the Creation Realm.
Each of the eight remaining heads of the True Lord Jiuyin possesses an innate divine Divine Ability, among which are several bizarre techniques unknown even to the official authorities of the Divine Continent.
A half-step Creation Realm with a damaged foundation, plus an army whose combined strength is only comparable to a True Person of the Divine Connection Realm, thinks they can stop its advance...
Daydreaming!
True Lord Jiuyin Monarch chuckled inwardly, "As expected, Ye Li's appearance is a bolt from the blue for Shenzhou itself, as their defensive measures are so inadequate."
"Then don't blame me for seizing the opportunity."
"There's nothing I can do. I just can't stand seeing such geniuses in your Divine Continent. If you were in my shoes, you would definitely do the same."
The True Lord Jiuyin was in an exceptionally pleasant mood at this moment.
Now, the most difficult part of the operation—infiltrating the royal city—has been completed.
Trading the temporary loss of a Divine Ability for this level of power is absolutely worthwhile!
The next step is to find Ye Li's residence in the Royal City Heavenly Supervision Department, and then remove the head of this peerless genius.
It's as easy as turning your hand.
A hint of mockery flashed in the eyes of the True Lord Jiuyin; in the end, it was the one with the superior skill.
When the two True Monarch of Creation Realm from Shenzhou returned to the royal city, all they found was a cold, lifeless corpse of a prodigy, and the city in complete disarray.
And it had already made great contributions to the [Land of Ten Thousand Demons], and was about to return to receive a reward that was even more generous than expected!
"Ying Potian go completely insane then?"
True Lord Jiuyin closed his eyes slightly, and just thinking about the generous reward he would receive afterward made him chuckle softly.
As for Ying Potian's subsequent pursuit?
The True Lord Jiuyin didn't take it to heart at all.
Of the many Great Demons in the Land of Ten Thousand Demons who have grudges against Ying Potian, many are only somewhat wary of his methods, but far from being truly afraid of him.
If this Ziwei Palace is truly blinded by rage and rushes into the Land of Ten Thousand Demons to be killed...
Then they could take over most of the entire Taiqing Shenzhou.
Achieve freedom for both humans and animals!
Just thinking about it makes me feel incredibly excited...
A smile played on the lips of the True Lord Jiuyin. His steps seemed slow, but his figure appeared inside the Royal City Heavenly Supervision Department a moment later.
The clothes on her body also subtly transformed into the unique black cloud-patterned sleeves of the Heavenly Supervision Department.
His sensory innate Divine Ability activated silently, quickly locking onto a clearly extraordinary courtyard—
Although it appears only slightly more luxurious than other mansions, it secretly harbors many guards, and an elderly guardian at the late stage of the Divine Connection Realm sits outside the door.
It was a complete case of overreaching and making things worse.
True Lord Jiuyin shook his head and strolled slowly toward the courtyard.
The vermilion gate of the Heavenly Supervision Department was just a stone's throw away; as it walked, it adjusted the mysteriously patterned ribbons that had materialized from them.
When the patrol officer's sharp gaze swept over, it could even mimic Human Race cultivator's standard bow.
"Wait."
A cold female voice pierced the warm sun like an ice pick. The True Lord Jiuyin paused slightly, and when he turned around, he saw a girl in purple holding a scroll.
He was holding a golden scroll in his hand, staring at it with icy eyes.
