Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Seeing Ning Wang's weakened state, Jun Wuxie knew it was caused by the shattered Dongtian.

Ning Wang's Dongtian was cracked by him, but not severely; only a fissure was torn.

Jun Wuxie opened his palm, and a drop of crimson blood essence appeared, filled with vigorous life essence and a strong aura of the wild.

"This is… the blood essence of the Blood鬃 Lion-Hound Beast King?"

Ning Wang's weak face showed surprise, the life essence within was too vast.

"The blood essence of the Blood鬃 Lion-Hound Beast King in the half-step Overlord Saint realm should be able to repair the cracks in your Dongtian."

Jun Wuxie flipped his palm and injected the blood essence into Ning Wang's body, helping him refine the essence's energy.

The vigorous life energy surged within his body, and Ning Wang hurriedly guided it to the cracked area of his Dongtian.

At this time, Jun Wuxie also injected his own life source energy into Ning Wang's body, causing the cracks in Ning Wang's Dongtian to slowly heal.

The time was short, only half an hour, and Ning Wang's Dongtian was perfectly healed.

After all, the cracks in his Dongtian had only formed today, and because Jun Wuxie's attack was very measured and precise, he chose the easiest place to repair and struck a crack.

With the Dongtian repaired, Ning Wang's expression quickly improved.

Now, the true energy derived from the Dongtian could be stored, meaning he could slowly recover, at least it would no longer leak out.

"It's because of your aunt; she used her divine sense to tell me that Qin Yi betrayed the Great Qian Dynasty and was bought by the Myriad Poisons Sect, one of the supporting forces behind the Wu'an Dynasty, and is plotting how to use poison to break the city after the ancient tomb opens. I thought that the top forces in Hanzhou are not easy to deal with, and the most feared thing is that the people they send are too high in realm. If they exceed the half-step Overlord Saint realm, we will have no hope."

"Therefore, I thought, why not take this opportunity to settle the grievances with True Martial Peak? If I die, and then you enter the ancient tomb, Wu'an's assessment of the difficulty of taking the border city will inevitably decrease, and the strong experts sent by those forces may not be so outrageous. If I don't die, but am crippled, the result is the same, because our relationship is not as they imagine, we have broken up, and the internal is not united."

"You want to paralyze them with this, then what is your plan afterward, or rather, your coping method?"

Ning Wang heard this and showed a thoughtful expression, saying, "I was thinking, since the Myriad Poisons Sect has bought Qin Yi, trying to use poison to break the city through Qin Yi's hands, can we use their plan against them?"

"Indeed, using their plan against them is the best strategy, so don't send people to track Qin Yi for now. His every move must be watched by the strong experts of the Myriad Poisons Sect. If people are sent to monitor him, it will be easily detected. Once detected, the plan to use their plan against them can only be declared bankrupt."

"If we don't send people to track and monitor him, how can we understand the plans of the Myriad Poisons Sect and Qin Yi?"

Ning Wang was full of incomprehension.

"You don't need to worry about this; Aunt Jing will find out their plan."

"You let your aunt go to track them; aren't you afraid that she will be detected by the Myriad Poisons Sect or encounter danger?"

After Ning Wang asked this question, he realized that his question was too lacking in skill.

Since Yue Wuxie dared to say this, he must be fully confident.

It's just that such a thing was a bit beyond his imagination, so he didn't react for a while.

Jun Wuxie analyzed, "Although we don't know the plan of the Myriad Poisons Sect yet, if they want to break the city with poison, they will inevitably need Wu'an's army. The two must cooperate internally and externally to do it. Therefore, they should want to use poison to deal with our Rune Armor Army, causing the Rune Armor Army to lose combat ability for a certain period of time. At that time, they will open the city gate, and the Wu'an army can drive straight in, occupying the border city, and our soldiers will be slaughtered due to being poisoned and having no resistance."

Ning Wang's expression became solemn upon hearing this, and he said, "We now need to ensure that the soldiers are not poisoned, and also be able to deal with the strong experts of the Myriad Poisons Sect, Seven Killings Tower, and Soul Severing Valley when fighting. If we draw a large number of elites to form a battle formation to deal with those strong experts, then our army may find it difficult to gain an advantage when facing the Wu'an army."

"Preventing poison should not be difficult. As long as we are careful and cautious, it is not so easy to be poisoned. Although the Myriad Poisons Sect is good at using poison, this is, after all, using poison on millions of troops, not using poison on a small group, so the potency of the poison will not be too strong, and the fastest way to spread it is through the air, using natural wind, which can cover a large area in a short time. However, in this way, it is easy to be detected, so they will not choose this method."

Speaking of this, Jun Wuxie couldn't help but sneer, "They bought Qin Yi, valuing him as a person from the Ning Wang Mansion, who has the freedom to pass through various places in the city. Since this is the case, why don't we simply give Qin Yi a position, so that he can justifiably contact the major military camps?"

"This is a good idea!" Ning Wang showed a smile upon hearing this, "The Myriad Poisons Sect uses Qin Yi, why can't we use him? Instead of letting them think of ways to poison, it is better for us to create opportunities for them to poison, so that we can take the initiative into our hands."

"Let's give him the position of Supervisor of the Military Supplies Supervision Department. You can mention this to him first, saying that you are preparing to establish the Military Supplies Supervision Department recently, and want him to serve as the Supervisor, supervising the military supplies of the three armies of the border city. Don't let him take office too early, otherwise, it will be difficult to control the time for him to poison."

"You can use this position to hang him, and Aunt Jing will monitor the Myriad Poisons Sect and Qin Yi. When the Myriad Poisons Sect's patience reaches its limit, Qin Yi can be immediately appointed. After he takes office, he will definitely implement the Myriad Poisons Sect's plan within a few days, and our soldiers only need not to use any newly issued supplies during those few days to avoid being poisoned. However, we still have to secretly find someone to test the poison to see what will happen after being poisoned, so as to avoid failing to act well and being exposed."

"Okay, let's do it this way! It's just that, the strong experts of the Myriad Poisons Sect, Seven Killings Tower, and Soul Severing Valley, these three top forces in Hanzhou, how are we going to deal with them? With the strong experts around me, I'm afraid they are far from their opponents. Moreover, it is difficult to guarantee that the people from the Sea River Clan and the Royal Academy will not come to make trouble after you enter the ancient tomb. At that time, we will face multiple targets, and the pressure will be great."

"You don't need to worry about the people from the Sea River Clan and the Royal Academy; they will not participate in the war between Wu'an and the border city army. According to my speculation, even if they really take action, their target will only be my Azure Cloud Sect. If they attack the Azure Cloud Sect, you don't need to pay attention to them; let them do it, and the Azure Cloud Sect will have its own means to deal with them. As for the strong experts of the Three Sects of Hanzhou, I will leave the Blood鬃 Lion-Hound Beast King in the city. As long as the Overlord Saint doesn't come, no one can do anything to the Beast King!"

"You leave the Blood鬃 Lion-Hound Beast King behind; what will you do after you enter the ancient tomb? How can you ensure your own safety? Now, everyone wants to kill you! The people they send into the ancient tomb must be strong experts selected after assessing your strength, waiting to kill you in the ancient tomb!"

"If I were so easy to kill, I wouldn't be alive and standing here talking to you now. You don't need to worry about my safety, and I will also take Anning and Yan Ning to the ancient tomb."

Ning Wang did not object upon hearing this.

Although following Yue Wuxie into the ancient tomb is very dangerous and will be hunted by many forces, it is also accompanied by opportunities.

He believed that since Yue Wuxie dared to do this, he must have considered all the difficulties he would face and be confident that he could cope with them; otherwise, he would not have taken Ning'er and the girl surnamed Xu with him.

"Now there is one last question, that is, Wu'an has already figured out the number of garrison troops we have in the border city. If they cooperate internally and externally with the Myriad Poisons Sect, even if they expect our army to be poisoned, they will never send fewer people. After all, once they control the border city, it will be their base for attacking the Great Qian Dynasty in the future. More troops entering the city is just equivalent to entering the camp in advance."

"I know that Wu'an currently has about ten million troops stationed outside the city. Due to the loss of the most elite cavalry and infantry in the last battle, the remaining troops, although large in number, have a greatly reduced number of elites, and there should be no legions comparable to the previous infantry and cavalry. I will transfer nine million Rune Armor Army from Changling Pass and other places to ambush near the border city in advance. Once the Wu'an army enters the city, they will be turtles in a jar!"

"Nine million Rune Armor Army? Such a big movement, and it is a transfer of the Emperor's army. This matter will definitely not be hidden, and the news will be transmitted to the ears of the Myriad Poisons Sect and others in advance. At that time, it may cause suspicion and affect our plan."

"I will have them block the news. As long as they can block it for a few days, there will be a time difference in the news. By the time the news reaches the border city, it will be too late. Besides, they are leaving; they must leave quietly, not swaggeringly. Therefore, I need to build high-grade warships with stealth effects."

"This… the military equipment refiners in the border city can only refine middle-grade intermediate-level Saint artifacts at most, and the success rate is not high. You need high-grade warships with stealth effects; I am afraid that no refiner in the entire Qingzhou can do it!"

"I don't need a refiner; I am a refiner myself. Ning Wang, do you have third-grade Saint materials on you? Give them all to me if you do."

Ning Wang looked at him in shock upon hearing this; he simply couldn't believe his ears.

If he hadn't lost his legs, he would have jumped up in shock.

Yue Wuxie is actually also a refiner?

Martial Dao myth, genius Rune Master, and now also the Dao of Refining!

How can there be such a person in the world?

Martial Dao, Rune Dao, Artifact Dao, any one of them, achieving something in one's whole life would already be an amazing talent.

This young man in front of him actually combines three Daos in one person!

His Martial Dao talent is already divine, and his Rune Dao attainments are also astonishing; otherwise, when he was still in the Saint realm, it would have been impossible for him to take the seriously injured and dying Blood鬃 Lion-Hound Beast King to escape the pursuit of so many strong experts.

And this Artifact Dao, he actually said that he would refine high-grade Saint artifacts himself!

That is a grade that requires at least a Third Realm Saint Artifact Master to refine!

So young, only in his twenties, a martial arts myth, a talisman prodigy, and a Third Realm Saint Artifact Refiner, something that doesn't even exist in the entire Azure Province!

"Prince Ning?"

Jun Wuxie saw that he was like a fool and couldn't help but call out.

Prince Ning then came back to his senses, took out a ring from his storage ring, and said, "All the Third Grade Saint Materials are inside. The quantity is not much, it's the amount that my Ning Royal Mansion has stored for thousands of years."

Jun Wuxie looked at it. The quantity was not small, there must be several tons, but the grade was only Third Grade Elementary, with the highest being Intermediate.

Third Grade materials are too expensive. It was already very rare for Prince Ning to get so many Third Grade Elementary and Intermediate materials.

"These materials are useless to you, just give them to me for refining."

Jun Wuxie was not polite and directly put away the storage ring, saying, "Leave the planning and arrangements to you, I'm going to refine artifacts."

"Young Master Yue!"

When Jun Wuxie walked to the door, Prince Ning suddenly called out to him.

"What else is there?"

He stopped and turned to look.

"I wanted to say, when can you call me Father-in-Law?"

"Don't even think about it."

Jun Wuxie's facial muscles twitched slightly, and he said, "Not to mention that Anning and I are not that kind of relationship now, even if she becomes my consort in the future, don't think about it. Although the grievances are settled, some things have happened and that's that. You must know that I am a member of the True Martial Peak!"

"Forget it, whether you call me that or not doesn't matter, as long as you treat Anning well."

Prince Ning seemed to see it very openly, with a relaxed and carefree look on his face.

Jun Wuxie looked at his expression, feeling complicated.

Prince Ning was relaxed and carefree, but his master was heavy-hearted, still struggling and agonizing inside.

He was very clear that his master, True Person Cheng Yuan, would probably need some time to get over it.

"Come in."

Jun Wuxie concealed himself with the Lesser Void Art and transmitted his divine sense to Anning.

When Anning pushed open the door and came in, he happened to be going out.

"Don't let anyone know I've been here. Your father's cave has been repaired. Don't spread the word about this for now, and don't let my master know."

Jun Wuxie had already gone far away, but the sound of his divine sense clearly echoed in Anning's mind.

Anning stood at the door for a long time before closing the door and walking to the bed. Seeing that her father's complexion was much better and no longer so weak, a smile finally appeared on her face, but tears welled up in her eyes.

"Ning'er, why are you crying again? Father is fine now, and the cave has been repaired. Such an ending is already a luxury for our father and daughter, but it is unfair to True Martial Peak. We still owe True Martial Peak. In the future, when you become the Empress, you must properly compensate True Martial Peak."

Prince Ning's state of mind was completely different from before. These days, he often recalled the things he had done over the past thousand years, and he had a lot of regrets in his heart.

If time could be reversed, he believed that he would change his ways and often reflect on himself, so as not to become the kind of person he once hated the most.

"Daughter is just too happy. In the future, daughter will definitely find rare treasures to regenerate father's severed limbs!"

"Don't think about this for now. Father's realm has not been lost, and he still has one hand, which is enough. Think about it, if father's severed limbs were to be regenerated, what would True Person Cheng Yuan feel? If he can completely forgive the mistakes father once made in the future, then it won't be too late to consider regenerating the severed limbs."

"Yes, daughter will listen to father."

Prince Ning patted Anning's hand and said, "Regarding father's matter, it's good as it is now. Don't try to do anything more for father. You need to consider the feelings of the people of True Martial Peak and don't make Yue Wuxie feel embarrassed in the middle. Only by being more well-behaved and sensible, and thinking more carefully about everything, will you have the opportunity to rise to the top in the future. Otherwise, you will probably only be a subordinate or maid by his side."

"Father, rise to... rise to what position? What are you talking about..."

Anning lowered her head, her face already flushed red.

"Even if you're shy, father has to say it. Now even a fool can see that you like him. You probably don't know what you look like, what expression you have when you're in front of him. Father is not saying this to blame you. Yue Wuxie is a true dragon among men. In the future, following him, you may face many difficulties and dangers, but he can take you on a path you never dared to imagine before, and take you to a height you never dreamed of. Follow him wholeheartedly, and that will be your most brilliant future. However, even with a brilliant future, the feeling of happiness and the degree of excitement in the future will probably be different whether you are his maid or his woman."

"This kind of thing can only take its course. Although he has pity for daughter now, I'm afraid he has no intention of accepting me."

Anning's eyes dimmed, and she murmured faintly.

Listening to his daughter's resentful and lonely tone, Prince Ning comforted her, "The life of a cultivator is very long. Take the road ahead slowly, be patient, and don't be impatient. The same goes for feelings. Although Yue Wuxie is decisive in killing, he is actually a very emotional person. As long as you silently give for him, you can be like a spring breeze, moistening things silently, and occupy a place in his heart. This is like planting a seed in his heart, slowly taking root and sprouting, and growing into a towering tree. When that time comes, he will naturally cherish and love you."

"Daughter... daughter remembers..."

Anning's voice was very low. Her father was telling her these things, teaching her how to enter a man's heart, which made her feel extremely shy.
