Ye Li originally thought that the emergence of a Great Brahma Palace Arhat from the Bone and Blood Cult was already the limit.
But now it seems we underestimated the sheer audacity of the Southern Territory forces.
The resurgence of this seemingly unrelated local cult has somehow managed to connect with the Northern Cang Cold Palace. It's unclear whether this connection stems from the two members of the Cold Palace themselves, or from the Cold Palace's supreme ruler...
He immediately began to peruse the Memory Scroll of the two Cold Palace Elders.
The Supreme Being's Divine Consciousness was incredibly powerful; finding what was needed from the vast sea of Memory Scroll was effortless for him.
As the browsing progressed further...
Ye Li seemed to be deep in thought.
Ye Li seemed to understand something.
Ye Li suddenly realized!
The previously calmed eyes flashed with surprise again. This astonishing revival of the Bone and Blood Cult was actually the work of that Cold Palace Supreme!
"This is really... buy one get one free!"
He had previously planned to help the Cold Palace resolve the Demonic Calamity raging outside after this matter was settled.
Unexpectedly, now we have to take on both goals at once.
But it's good that he bought it all; it saves the people in the Cold Palace from asking him where he was earlier, and he can be more justified in asking for the Treasure Medicine when he gets back.
Just then, a series of rapid whooshing sounds came from behind.
"General Ye!"
Li Huaian, who was leading the group, quickly stepped forward and looked the boy up and down. A hint of worry, seemingly imperceptible but actually very easy to detect, was in his eyes, and his tone carried a touch of self-reproach.
"Were you injured by that Buddhist Treasure? This was due to my oversight; I forgot to prepare a suitable Treasured Artifacts for the general, which almost led to a disaster!"
If the Great Brahma Palace possesses Treasured Artifacts, the Great Sheng Dynasty would naturally have even more.
Xiao Yu, listening from the side, felt her eyelids twitch. "..."
The Treasured Artifacts of immense value, yet His Highness speaks of it as if it were a Capital City, given away without a second thought.
Although it's understandable that he wanted to win over Ye Li, the newly promoted Supreme.
But considering that she has worked so hard for the Nine Luminaries Division for so many years, yet couldn't even get the skin of Treasured Artifacts, it's somewhat heartbreaking.
With Your Highness's temperament, how could you forget something like this behind my back...?
She sighed inwardly.
They dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction on their faces, and stood obediently to the side, waiting for orders.
Just kidding, the death aura of the three peak Venerables is almost drowning the air here. Faced with such a newly promoted Supreme who kills peak Venerables like cutting melons and vegetables, anyone who dares to show their fear is a fool.
"It's not too late to give it to them when we get back."
Ye Li wasn't used to being polite to people, and besides, he had more important things to worry about right now.
He turned to look aside and said calmly:
"Xiao Yu, Tang Xiao."
"Your subordinate is here!" Xiao Yu knelt on one knee swiftly, head bowed, eyes fixed on the ground.
The speed of their actions startled Tang Xiao, causing him to be a beat slow in responding to the order.
"Your humble servant... is here!"
"There are two Venerable corpses over there. You two go and examine them to see if they practiced the methods of the Bone and Blood Cult." Ye Li pointed to a spot not far away.
The divine lightning he had previously unleashed did not completely shatter the bodies of the two Cold Palace elders.
Originally intended as fuel for the Divine Fire, it's quite fitting to use it as evidence for bookkeeping now.
"I'll go take a look too."
Li Huaian followed him, striving to leave the boy with a good impression of being hands-on in everything.
But as her Divine Power touched the charred bones and she sensed the residual, extremely yin and cold energy of the magic within, she couldn't help but shiver.
She quickly came to her senses, and her face turned deathly pale!
"Her Jade Bone Permeates Cold, her Coldness Erodes Soul..."
Li Huaian's voice even trembled with disbelief. "These two are cultivating the [Northern Cang Cold Palace]'s Spirit Grade Circulation Method?!"
"Indeed, the chill emanating from these bones... there's no way it could be fake!"
Xiao Yu frowned, abruptly turned to look at Tang Xiao, whose lips had turned white with fright, and coldly questioned:
"The Northern Cang Cold Palace is raising ghosts, and you didn't even know?!"
"General Xiao, now is not the time to dwell on this matter!" Li Huaian withdrew his senses with a grim expression, then looked back at Ye Li and said in a deep voice:
"General Ye! The Northern Cang Cold Palace, impersonating the Bone and Blood Cult, has stirred up chaos within the territory. This matter is of utmost importance! I will immediately request reinforcements from the Capital City. What do you think?!"
She is now in a state of utter confusion!
Such a problem arising from one of the Four Extremes Twelve Gates is an absolutely earth-shattering event that will shake the entire court and the public!
It seems that only by dispatching a true Grand General from the border to prepare troops can this conflict be quelled...
"Requesting reinforcements?"
Ye Li frowned slightly, interrupting the other person's thoughts, and asked:
"Why call for backup? Do you think I can't handle this?"
"Of course not!" Li Huaian felt a chill run down his spine and hurriedly explained:
"I am well aware of the General's abilities and he is certainly not afraid of any supreme being of the same rank. However, the location of the Northern Cang Cold Palace is special, and further east there is an immortal Great Demon entrenched there. If this is not handled properly..."
"I will handle it properly," Ye Li said calmly.
"Have the prefecture where Han Palace is located send troops to surround that place, and I will go there immediately to help mediate the conflict."
Upon hearing this, Li Huaian pursed his lips tightly.
Of course she knew of General Ye's abilities. A Martial Dao master who had cultivated for over ten years, he was not like a monster, but rather like a reincarnated immortal who had not forgotten his True Immortal!
But circumstances are beyond our control!
That Cold Palace Supreme had already achieved the Supreme status many years ago, and even Imperial Capital Sheng had a high opinion of him!
The young man has just been promoted to the Supreme Realm. Even if he can hold his own against him, how will he deal with the White Jade Fox Venerable east of Yunze?!
It's a dead end no matter how you look at it!
Li Huaian gritted her teeth, wanting to offer some more advice, but when she raised her head again, the young man in official Official Robe had already vanished without a trace.
Her breathing suddenly became rapid.
After a brief silence, Li Huaian finally steeled himself, turned to Xiao Yu and the other person who were still in a daze, and said coldly:
"Do as General Ye orders! And do it quickly!!!"
