Chapter 738 - Hang the Heavenly Imperials, Change of Stronghold Leadership

Chapter 738: Hang the Heavenly Imperials, Change of Stronghold Leadership

“I suggest you guys watch this battle from the sidelines.”

Chu Kuangren said gently from a short distance away.

In the meantime, Luo Shui and Heavenly Imperial Wuhen had entered the void for a battle. Both their powerful miniverses exploded, shaking the void.

This battle promised to be a very intense one.

One of them was a Half-step Daoist Celestial, while the other was a Daoist Celestial reincarnated.

Chu Kuangren was also watching this battle. Once Luo Shui loses the upper hand, he would intervene and join in the battle. Nonetheless, Luo Shui truly was the reincarnation of the First Empress of Ages. Her cultivation base may be far inferior to Heavenly Imperial Wuhen, but with the insights she had gained from the past as a Daoist Celestial, she brought the battle to equal grounds.

She even managed a slight advantage and nearly suppressed her opponent.

“It seems like I won’t need to intervene after all.”

Chu Kuangren smiled gently.

At the side, when the Heavenly Imperials of Stronghold Thirty-One saw their commodore losing the upper hand, they suddenly felt like rushing into the void to help him.

However, with Chu Kuangren by their side, they were left with no means.

The few Heavenly Imperials glanced at each other.

“Let’s take out this person first.”

“Yes, let’s.”

Several Heavenly Imperials then flew towards Chu Kuangren, and the miniverses of these Heavenly Imperials erupted one after another, completely enveloping Chu Kuangren.

Various Esoteric Techniques also locked down on him.

“Draconian Grasp!”

“Divine Light Sword Art!”

“Kill Blow, Earth Shatterer!”

The Esoteric Powers of the Heavenly Imperials shook a good half of the stronghold.

Countless cultivators were astonished.

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren, who was locked on by the Heavenly Imperials’ miniverses and targeted by the Esoteric Arts, stood still, letting those powers blast at him.

He gently raised his hand, and countless incredibly mystical Dao patterns intertwined, forming a huge vortex that absorbed all the Esoteric Powers.

“I told you all to watch on silently, didn’t I?”

Chu Kuangren said indifferently. Then, his palm quivered, and all the Esoteric Powers that it absorbed bounced back and lambasted towards the Heavenly Imperials.

Boom, boom, boom!

Several blasts sounded, and several Heavenly Imperials were flung out.

“What are these Esoteric Powers?”

“Superb-grade Esoteric Power? No, I think it’s a higher grade than that!”

“Prominent-grade Esoteric Power!”

The Heavenly Imperials began to shudder in fear.

Esoteric Art was not something even the Emperors could succeed in cultivating in their entire life. As for Prominent-grade Esoteric Art, only less than a handful of people had been able to comprehend it throughout the ages!

Now, they had witnessed a Prominent-grade Esoteric Art with their very eyes.

“Also, look at these miniverses that you are using. Your methods are way too crude! Let me teach you,” Chu Kuangren said lightly.

He snapped his fingers.

Suddenly, purple chains flew out from the void. This chain was amalgamated from the purest of Emperor qis. With the Spatial Conveyor Skill to transport it, it could come and go freely in the void.

Still, this was not the chain’s strongest point. The most terrifying part of the chain was that it contained Chu Kuangren’s miniverse!

This trick was coined by Chu Kuangren as the universal chain!

Swish, swish, swish…

The purple universal chain shuttled in the void. The Heavenly Imperials present could not catch the trajectory of its movement at all, and they panicked a little.

“What the hell is this?”

“D*mn…”

The chain shuttled. In a short while, it tied the limbs of a few Heavenly Imperials and hung them in the air, where they were rendered immobile.

The sight of this made all the cultivators at the stronghold shudder in terror.

“My goodness. Those are Heavenly Imperials.”

“Heavenly Imperials are actually hung in the air. How did he do it?”

“Who is this young man?”

“I know him. He’s Chu Kuangren, ranked thirty-first on the battle leaderboard. Chu Kuangren of one hundred million combat merits!”

“What?! One hundred million combat merits! Even the great commodore of our stronghold only has about seventy million, yet he has 100 million combat merits?!”

“Chu Kuangren… It’s actually him.”

The cultivators in the stronghold could not stop talking about him.

However, Chu Kuangren did not care about any of that. The few Heavenly Imperials were hung in mid-air by his universal chain, and they had no power at all to resist it. Meanwhile, in the void, the battle between Luo Shui and Heavenly Imperial Wuhen had gradually come to a conclusion.

Luo Shui dominated Heavenly Imperial Wuhen through her comprehension of Dao, which clearly surpassed her opponent. In a crucial moment of the battle, she managed to take advantage of an opportunity to pull a long black saber abruptly in her hand and sliced at Heavenly Imperial Wuhen’s head.

With a loud tear, his head parted with his torso!

Heavenly Imperial Wuhen’s head was hurled up high.

The long saber in Luo Shui’s hand reached out. As she caught her opponent’s head, she said to him indifferently, “Without my head, I can still live, but you… can’t.”

After she said those words, her Emperor qi surged.

That head exploded into a blood mist on the spot!

Heavenly Imperial Wuhen had fallen!

After beheading her enemy, Luo Shui stepped out of the void.

That was when she noticed the few of the Heavenly Imperials hung in mid-air by the universal chain, and a hint of amazement appeared in her eyes.

“Your usage of the universal chains is quite clever.”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

Chu Kuangren smiled faintly.

After the Heavenly Imperials witnessed the slaughter of Heavenly Imperial Wuhen, one of them said furiously, “You two are toast! Heavenly Imperial Wuhen is a disciple of Heavenly Golden Daoist Celestial. Seeing as you’ve murdered him, there will be no shelter left for you in this entire Extraterritorial Battlefield. You might as well await your death now!”

Luo Shui did not care less despite hearing his clamor.

At this moment, a golden cloud suddenly flew in from the distance, and among the clouds was a golden figure.

It was a man holding a golden jade order and wearing a crown.

After seeing him, the Heavenly Imperials who were hung suddenly laughed.

“It’s Daoist Celestial Emissary.”

“The Daoist Celestial Emissary is here. You guys are dead.”

The man came to the sky and glanced at the hanging Heavenly Imperials. However, he then averted his gaze and announced loudly, “Daoist Celestial Decree. From now on, Stronghold Thirty-One will be under Luo Shui’s control. All soldiers must listen to her order. Any disobedience would not be tolerated…”

As soon as this decree came out, everyone was confused.

Their first reaction was, ‘Who the hell is Luo Shui?’

Following that, they looked toward her with a deadpan gaze.

‘No way. This cannot be…’

‘Is that her?!’

“Sister Luo Shui, congratulations.” Daoist Celestial Emissary looked at Luo Shui with a faint smile, thoroughly confirming everyone’s conjecture.

Those few Heavenly Imperials, especially, were stunned, with their mouths and eyes wide open. They simply could not believe it.

This person had killed Heavenly Imperial Wuhen. Yet, not only had she escaped scot-free, but she also became the new head of Stronghold Thirty-One and their new boss. Could it be more ridiculous?

Nevertheless, the truth had been laid out in front of them, and they could not deny it.

They knew it themselves.

Luo Shui’s background was probably even more terrifying than Heavenly Imperial Wuhen. Otherwise, she would not be able to pull off such feats.

“Chu Kuangren, put them down.”

Luo Shui ordered.

“Alright.”

Chu Kuangren snapped his fingers, and the universal chains disappeared.

After the Heavenly Imperials regained their freedom, they stared at Luo Shui and Chu Kuangren with mixed emotions. Some looked suspicious, while some looked shocked.

Since the Daoist Celestial had personally delivered this decree, this matter was set in stone, and they no longer had any room for rebuttal. The only thing they could do now was to obediently admit their fate.

“We’re here at your service, commodore!”

The Heavenly Imperials walked up to Luo Shui, bowed, and saluted. They could not help but feel a little nervous. This new commodore of theirs would not blame them for their presumptuousness just now, right?

Luo Shui glanced at them and said in a gentle tone. “The bad blood between Heavenly Imperial Wuhen and I will not implicate the rest of you. You are all still generals of the command headquarters. From now on, all you need to do is complete the duties that you’ve been given to the best of your abilities.”

“Thank you for your kindness, commodore.”

The few Heavenly Imperials felt relieved.

After that, Luo Shui looked at Daoist Celestial Emissary and said nonchalantly, “Send my word of thanks to Transcendental Daoist Celestial. I’ll gladly accept this great gift.”

Among the twenty-four Daoist Celestials, Transcendental Daoist Celestial was the only one whom she was closest to and trusted the most.

“Don’t mention it, Honorable Empress. I shall make a move then.” The Daoist Celestial Emissary left after passing the decree.
