Chapter 1023: Sixth Central’s Downfall

The thunderous voice caused internal organs to tremble. The cultivators from West Spirit turned pale from fear.

Feiyun stared at them for a bit and left, leaving them behind in a daze.

Just one palm strike alone sent all of them flying - a testament to his power.

The crimson-haired girl, four-eyed man, and Ouyang Wudao were all top geniuses. They had a hard time soothing their vitality - a sign of serious injuries.

“Who was that?” Fang Tongyao was intimidated as well.

Of course, members of Crimson were just as shocked and couldn’t believe their own eyes.

Mo Hen gripped his spear tightly while murmuring: “How could he be so strong, how?”

You Ziling was frightened as well. She knew that he was strong but that palm strike earlier was insane. Was he in the Heaven’s Emergence realm now?

Otherwise, how could he wield such power?

The old men from Crimson shared the same thought. A half-demon could never reach Heaven’s Emergence but what the hell was that?

“Since the first princess is busy, I will return another day.” Fang Tongyao no longer dared to linger around.

You Zilin laughed and said: “Our prince-in-law said that he would definitely come to your mansion to apologize, just wait.”

“I just hope Sixth Prince won’t avoid us then or the prince-in-law might be furious enough to flatten the place with one palm strike, that wouldn’t be good…” Murong Sande said.

“What are you saying? Sixth Prince is a cultured man and wouldn’t ignore guests, haha!”

Fang Tongdao was livid and gritted his teeth. His eyes flashed with malice but he still chose to leave. After all, there was no point in fighting someone clearly stronger.

Night came and so did the cold air.

Feiyun was reading a bamboo scroll in the study room. He focused on finding information regarding Sacred Territory.

He was currently a domain lord here and needed to report to the territory lord tomorrow. Therefore, he needed more information.

“Sacred is the greatest territory in Sixth Central and has a total of 280,000 domains.” Feiyun put down the scroll and was quite surprised.

A mortal-level territory could only have 10,000 domains. An earth-level territory included up to 30,000, and a heaven-level territory - 50,000.

In this case, Sacred had a total of 280,000 domains on top of the richest spirit energy location in Sixth Central. This was certainly the best piece of real estate available.

Why did it fall?

“Creak.” The door opened and Liu Suhong entered. She had a light-pink dress and a crimson hat. Cold air infiltrated as well.

She had snowflakes on her so she wiped them off and smiled: “Unexpected snow, it’s white out there after just one hour. I think all of Deep South will be covered in snow tomorrow.”

She closed the door and the place became warm again.

He looked at her and asked: “Finished talking with Elder Lin?”

She smirked in response: “Just trading benefits, that’s all. What are you reading?”

She was no longer as arrogant as before. In fact, she sounded rather gentle now because she heard what had happened.

She gracefully walked closer - a style that has been taught since youth. Only the princesses and royal daughters could reach this level of aesthetically-pleasing grace.

He smelled an orchid fragrance once she got close enough. She asked: “What are you reading, Husband?”

Though the two of them were only working together for personal gains, the word “husband” didn’t seem too forced.

He nodded and said: “Elder Lin probably told you that I’ll be reporting to the territory lord’s residence tomorrow. I just don’t have a good grasp on the territory decline.”

“Why didn’t you ask me? I’ve read all of these scrolls when I was younger.”

She sat next to him and brought a jade lamp closer. Meanwhile, the snowstorm outside only intensified with heavy winds.

“At the start, all of Sixth Central was under the reign of Sacred Court. Alas, it was impossible to control all of these territories. Thus, the lord of the court bestowed them to others. This would buy their love on top of having better administration.”

“He didn’t expect this to go south until now, all the lords are virtually rebelling.”

“In reality, given the court’s foundation and the 280,000 domains, no one would dare to confront them.”

“The true problem started 300,000 years ago with internal turmoil and competition. The first three thousand years had twenty-seven major conflicts. Though this was taken care of, they lost numerous experts and became fragmented.”

“With that, the territory lords made their way to the court under the guise of protecting the lord. In reality, they only wanted to seize the court’s resources.

“Thirteen thousand years ago was the darkest history of Sixth Central. The Yin World, Asura Ocean, and Godfiend Territory all invaded and did unspeakable things.”

“The humiliation could never be erased. The lord of the court, his children, and concubines were captured by three kings from the Yin. They suffered unspeakable things there.”

“This infuriated the human dynasties. Finally, a high monk of Buddhism killed his way into the Yin World alone. The ten kings there couldn’t stop him.”

“Three out of the ten were pursued until there was no place left to hide in the human dynasties. They eventually went down in the Myriad Race Battlefield.”

“You’re talking about Yama, Lunzhuan, and Qinguang?” Feiyun asked.

“You’ve heard about this before?” Suhong asked.

“No, it just made me think of Eighth from the Gu.” Feiyun smiled. In reality, he was thinking about Yama.

Yama ran to Jin ten thousand years ago and was grievously wounded. It must have been because of that high monk.

Feiyun understood why he hated Buddhism so much and ended their golden age in Jin.

However, everyone in Sixth Central thought that the three kings were dead. How did Yama appear in Jin? There was something more to it. contemporary romance

Liu Suhong has heard about Lunzhuan hiding in Eighth’s body. Moreover, they have obtained the legacy of a pseudo saint and could return anytime. This was a dangerous character.

She continued: “It was the lord of Azure who brought the imperial family back. However, rumor has it that the lord of the court executed his wives and kids afterward.”

Feiyun shook his head and said: “This lord was truly pathetic and weak, placing the blame on his own family members.”

“Indeed, but the Azure naturally appreciated this. They would set up a new pathetic lord every few hundred years or so.”

“That fast?” Feiyun asked.

“Normally, each generation would reign for ten thousand years. It’s just that recently, the lords of Sacred Court didn’t live long at all for some reason. The one that lived the longest only made it to 700 years of age, the shortest died at 36.”

“So early?” Feiyun said.

“Because this lord was too talented, a mythical genius. It’s a shame that he wasn’t smart enough to hide his true ability.” Suhong laughed.

The imperial bloodline was naturally strong. However, Azure immediately eliminated anyone who showed the slightest sign of talent.
