Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws
chapter-1788

Gu Lingling glanced at the piece of metal before she prepared to leave.

Suddenly, clouds rumbled, and a domineering aura swept over half of the capital.

Several figures emerged from the clouds and slowly descended.

They were all True Immortals or Gilded Immortals who were considered the strongest cultivators in Firmament Star.

However, when Gul Linglong and the other elders had a good look at the figures, their expressions turned bitter.

"Tai Yunzi, Master Daoist Blue Carp, and Yue Wufang, what are you people doing here?"

Each of them was renowned in Firmament Star, yet they had gathered together in the capital.

Knowing their personalities and characters, Gu Linglong had a bad feeling about their visit.

"Your Majesty, we heard you were trying to forge a Kingdom Guardian Weapon to protect the empire, so we came to have a look. However, it seems like you've failed."

The old man, Tai Yunzi, glanced at the piece of rusty metal and sneered.

He, a Sixth-grade Gilded Immortal, was the strongest among all the cultivators present.

"The Kingdom Guardian Weapon was nothing but a joke."

Master Daoist Blue Carp was a lot more straightforward with his words. He voiced his contempt without holding back.

Gu Linglong and the other generals reacted grimly to their words.

"How dare you speak to the Queen like that?"

War Admiral Chaos, also known as Chaos Daoist Celestial in the past, stepped forward, channeled his Chaos Immortal's Core energy, and blasted it at Tai Yunzi and the others.

However, Tai Yunzi and the others ignored him. The old man simply raised his hand and dissipated the Immortal's Core energy blast.

Then, a handsome young man said in disdain, "The Thirteen Firmament Generals are renowned generals on this planet, but only War Admiral Chaos and War Admiral Nangong are here today. Since the others are all defending the empire at the border, this spacious palace cannot hold us back."

"Hmph! If the Five Ways Divine Shadow Army were here, even if you were given the chance, you wouldn't set foot in the capital," Elder Ruyan said.

"Chu Kuangren was the one who left behind the Five Ways Divine Shadow Army, and since they were closely related to him, I believe Chu Kuangren's fall caused them to go into slumber. Without either one of them, my Queen, you alone cannot rule over the empire."

The mention of Chu Kuangren stung Gu Linglong's heart.

Everyone said he had fallen for the past decade, but she refused to believe it.

She could not help herself from worrying but could not afford to fall because she had to rule the empire.

"You can try me and see if I can rule it alone."

Gu Linglong swung her sleeve behind and released a vast surge of Immortal's Core energy forward. It even contained a strong Gilded Trait.

When Chu Kuangren was still in Pan Gu Universe, he delivered many resources back to the empire.

It was because of him that the empire could rise to a prominent status.

With the help of the resources, Gu Linglong also broke through to the Gilded Immortal Realm.

As Gilded Immortals were considered elites in the Immortal World, Tai Yunzi and the others were deterred, not daring to act recklessly.

"My Queen, you're a prestigious symbol of the empire, and we wouldn't want to hurt you. So, I hereby deliver a message on behalf of the Heavenly Dao Sect. Surrender to the Heavenly Dao Sect and pay your offerings in time. Then, we can protect the empire," Tai Yunzi said.

"What a joke! We finally ended the Age of Gods and returned freedom to the people of Firmament Star, and now you're telling us to become slaves of the Heavenly Dao Sect? You have knelt for so long that you can't stand up for yourselves, but we rather die fighting than stay on our knees." War Admiral Chaos grunted and bellowed at them.

He had experienced the Age of Gods and knew how hard the lives of the people were.

Due to his experience, War Admiral Chaos refuted stronger than anyone because the people of Firmament Star would never be slaves again.

"In that case, don't blame us for being rude."

Yu Wufang scoffed and said, "The Heavenly Dao Sect made it clear that we will be in charge of the empire after we eliminate you people."

The empire had grown so big that its territories had extended to more than a thousand galaxies.

Firmament Star alone had expanded countless times and was no longer what it used to be in ancient times.

Being in charge of such a powerful empire was a thrilling prospect in and of itself.

"Do it!"

Tai Yunzi ordered his men to attack.

Master Daoist Blue Carp took a step forward to release his Immortal's Core energy at War Admiral Chaos.

The energy was like a tidal wave carrying countless blue carps in it, drowning its opponent.

In retaliation, War Admiral Chaos raised his hand to channel the Chaos Immortal's Core energy and unleashed it forward.

The two different energies collided and caused an explosion to explode in the space around them. Both of them were sent flying backward.

On the other hand, War Admiral Nangong, who was Nangong Huang of the Black Heaven Sect, fought Yue Wufang.

Yue Wufang was the top swordsman in Firmament Star and was a Second-grade Gilded Immortal, whereas Nangong Huang was just a True Immortal.

However, he could match Yue Wufang in terms of power because he had two powerful Arch Gilded items on him — an armor and a sword.

"Hmph! You've got all the treasures from Chu Kuangren." Yue Wufang grunted in jealousy. "We're all people of Firmament Star, yet he's biased toward you. If he really is the King of the human race, he should be fair to all of us. Why did you get the Arch Gilded Weapon and not us? Why must we search for our own materials to forge our own sword?"

Nangong Huang was amused by Yue Wufang's ignorant comment. "You? Are you questioning the King?

"In that case, let me ask you. Where were you when the Gods oppressed the human race? Where were you when the Blood Tribe invaded? Where were you when we fought at the borders to defend Firmament Star?

"You're just a pity boy who grew up under the King's protection. You have no right to question him! You calling him the King is an insult to his name!"

Nangong Huang was sharp with his words, and it left Yue Wufang speechless.

Yue Wufang was shaken, but he released a shout, and the sword qi on him rumbled. He continued to attack Nangong Huang.

The War Admirals and the empire's elders fought the enemies.

Meanwhile, in the sky above the capital, two figures were confronting each other.

It was Tai Yunzi, a Seventh-grade Gilded Immortal, and Gu Linglong, a Third-grade Gilded Immortal.

Their Immortal's Core energy collided and stirred up a storm around them.

"Your Majesty, based on what I know, other than Chu Kuangren, who was the strongest in Firmament Star, his followers Lan Yu, Shang Honghua, and the Godly Phoenix are also elites, but they are all caught up in the Battle of Heavenly Champions.

"They have their own problems to deal with, and there's no way they can come to your aid. You're destined to lose!"

"Other than you and the other few, who else has sided with the Heavenly Dao Sect?" Gu Linglong asked.

"There are many more of us. We all know that the capital has hidden many treasures and we all want a share," Tai Yunzi said with a smile.

"Sometimes, I wonder why you and the others would want to side with the enemies when the empire protects you from all kinds of invasion. Why? Was it me? Did I not do a good job?

"Then, I realize that when the forest grows bigger, all kinds of birds will live in it, and as the number grows, there ought to be a few stupid ones."

She swung her sleeve and released her vast Immortal's Core energy, which manifested into a golden palm. "All I need to do is slap them all to death!"
