Chapter 1356 -39 This round is stable!

After some time,

On a hidden barren mountain situated between the Southern Wilderness and Tianfu County, a woman with red hair and a slim waist stood with a child who reached only her waist. They were gazing far off in the direction of Long Ze.

These two were none other than the Demon Lord Xietong and the Shadow Snake Demonic Princess.

To avoid being detected by the Old Ancestor Dragon in Long Ze, both of them had subdued their auras, making their presence as inconspicuous as plants and rocks under the detection of God Sense.

The cold wind whipped across the mountain which could not extinguish the fiery determination in their hearts.

“Everything is ready. Now, we just wait for the military forces of South Qin and West Jin to reach the border,” Demon Lord Xietong said with his hands behind his back, his childlike face full of confidence. “As soon as the border conflicts intensify, Longchang and Jiang Zhencang, these two old fellows, will have to oversee the front lines.”

“When the war escalates, we will completely hold them and their elite troops there. Once everyone’s focus is on the war, we can take advantage of the situation. You will handle the Old Ancestor Dragon in Long Ze, while I will sweep clean the treasures within the Blood Venerate’s relics!”

A covetous smile appeared on the face of the Shadow Snake Demonic Princess. “Demon Lord, you are wise. Even if they realize something is amiss, we will have already fled far away with the treasures left by the Blood Venerate. Even if they return after the fact, they can only stare helplessly at the empty ruins.”

In truth, as long as the border conflict drags on, Longchang and Jiang Zhencang, along with Dagan’s most elite troops trapped in the Void Realm, might not even be able to disengage, even if they realize something is wrong.

After all, they are only two people, and cloning themselves is not an option.

Given their strength, as long as they are not directly blocked by Longchang and Jiang Zhencang or encircled by a large army, they could move freely within the Dagan Realm.

Now, with everything ready, they just waited for the national war to break out and the exact intel to be sent back by Chimei Demon Master.

This game was already securely theirs.

Just as the shadow of war loomed over Dagan, the rivalry for the position of Saint in the Lingyun Holy Ground also neared its climax.

That day.

Various big shots gathered once again in the Lingyun Sacred Temple, focusing heavily on the final outcome of the rivalry for the position of Saint.

The big shots of the Sacred Land were all very busy.

Only a heaven-defying event like the rivalry for the position of Saint could bring them together. Even Wang Shouzhe and Emperor Longchang, who had once again traveled from the Changning Wang Clan to the Sacred Land, were deeply concerned about the final outcome.

Master Jiang and Emperor Longchang sat at the chief seats in the spectator area, epitomizing the status of the Transcendent Void Realm.

Meanwhile, great figures of the Divine Power Territory and Wang Shouzhe were seated in the second row, followed by the elders of the Purple Abode Realm from various sects and then the seats for other visiting spectators.

“Your Majesty has recently been staying with the Wang family for retirement, which really has done wonders,” Jiang Zhencang commented with a slight surprise. “You look much better than you did a hundred years ago.”

Although they had met through the Wang family’s newly developed instant communication last time, it was no match for a face-to-face meeting, which allowed one to clearly and directly perceive life-sign changes.

“That’s natural,” Emperor Longchang boasted. “The Wang family is indeed a perfect place for retirement. Other than having that brat, Wang Shouzhe, annoyingly flitting before your eyes and being bothersome, everything else is impeccable.”

“Eh…” Wang Shouzhe, who was not far behind them, showed an expression of speechlessness. You’re freeloading at my family’s home yet you mind my presence here as the head of the Wang family?

“Ha ha ha~” Jiang Zhencang burst into hearty laughter. “That’s true, Shouzhe that kid is quite good. But for some reason, he always seems slightly irksome, makes one feel an urge to punch him.”

“Exactly,” agreed Emperor Longchang, feeling he had found a kindred spirit. “If not for my incredible self-restraint, I would have already taught him a lesson long ago.”

“That’s true, but still, Shouzhe is quite useful for now, with all the strategies we need him to devise for this national war,” Jiang Zhencang said, slightly emotionally. “After peace prevails, you can then settle scores with him.”

“Hmm, that’s exactly my plan. Once we win this national war, I definitely need to give him a good thrashing to vent my anger.”

The two Transcendent Void Realm big shots continued their cheerful discussion, causing Wang Shouzhe to cough twice as a reminder. Couldn’t you consider the feelings of the person involved when discussing such treacherous acts of deserting the drawer once the birds are gone and slaughtering the donkey?

“Everyone, please quiet,” Jin Ji, the Master who had been stationed in the Lingyun Sacred Ground during this period and seemed somewhat excited, spoke up. “The current competition in the rivalry for the position of Saint has reached an intense phase, and you all can hardly imagine what has happened.”

As Master Jin Ji spoke,

All the figures from the Transcendent Void Realm, Divine Power Territory, and the elders of the Purple Abode Realm refocused their attention.

“Jin Ji, why the mystery?” an Elder from the Purple Abode Realm, quite close to him, spoke up. “Don’t beat around the bush. Could it be that someone has achieved an unprecedented feat in this trial area where ‘winter is coming’?”

Since the official competition began, Jiang Zhencang had made public the results and processes of the previous trials, and everyone understood what the rivalry for the position of Saint entailed.

The main competition was about the comprehensive ability of the candidates, whether they could lead their people through this harsh winter.

Aside from facing increasingly severe natural conditions, more refugees, bandits, and wandering armies, it was also crucial to guard against the oppression from the ruling class of the area — Frost City.
