War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Cold killing intent flashed in the eyes of Yuan Ming Yun, the Clan Leader of the Yuan Clan in the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Heavenly Territory, when he saw the silhouette of the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox behind Huan’er. His Celestial Origin Energy raged and surged instinctively.

“The Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox!” Yuan Ming Yun did not have any enemies in his life, but there was nothing more he wanted than to kill the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox. The Yuan Clan and the Du Clan were sworn enemies after all. The appearance of a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox in the Du Clan was a threat to the Yuan Clan. Therefore, he needed to kill Huan’er. He would not allow the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox to disrupt the power balance in the Phantom Fox Clan.

“Are you planning to kill Huan’er?” Duan Ling Tian asked icily as he narrowed his eyes. Enemies of Huan’er were also his enemies, after all.

At this moment, upon sensing Yuan Ming Yun’s killing intent, Zhang Han Tian, the Clan Leader of the Zhang Clan in the Phantom Fox Clan, reminded Yuan Ming Yun through Voice Transmission. “Yuan Ming Yun, don’t forget about the two Celestial Emperors with them. Do you think she’ll reveal her identity as a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox for no reason?”

Yuan Ming Yuan was so overwhelmed with discovering the identity of the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox that he had briefly lost his sound judgment and could not control the killing intent that rose from his body. Fortunately, Zhang Han Tian’s prompt reminder pulled him back to his senses.

“So you’re the one who wants to kill Huan’er?” Zhuge Yun asked as her eyes glinted and she took a step forward.

Yuan Ming Yun felt a heavy pressure bearing down on him when Zhuge Yun stepped forward. He already knew how powerful she was through Zhang Ping Ye’s message, and he knew he was no match for her. In the end, he looked at her and asked in a submissive tone, “May I know who you are?”

“Zhuge Yun, the Leader of the Mo Xie Progeny in the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect,” Zhuge Yun replied indifferently.

Upon hearing Zhuge Yun’s reply, Yuan Ming Yun and Zhang Han Tian’s expressions changed dramatically. Although the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect was in the Jade Emperor Heaven, their reputation had spread far and wide. After all, the sect used to be a heaven-grade force. Although it was now a grade-one force in the Nan Dou Territory, the sect was still incredibly powerful. Although the Phantom Fox Clan was also a grade-one force like the sect, the Phantom Fox Clan was not a match for the sect.

Rumors had it that there were a few powerhouses in the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect who were comparable to titled Celestial Emperors. Among them, there was a pair of powerhouses who were known to be able to kill titled Celestial Emperors when they joined forces. They had only heard of this pair of Celestial Emperors from the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect and were not too familiar with the other powerhouses in the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect.

They knew the pair of powerhouses from the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect were called Zhuge Feng from the Gan Jiang Progeny and Zhuge Yun from the Mo Xie Progeny. Individually, their strength was comparable to a Celestial Emperor. However, if they joined forces, they were more than capable of killing titled Celestial Emperors.

Zhang Han Tian looked at Zhuge Yun in disbelief before he shifted his eyes to the cold and aloof person standing behind her. He asked, “You’re Lord Zhuge Yun… Then, a-are… are you Lord Zhuge Feng?”

“What do you think?” Zhuge Yun retorted.

“Greetings, my lords… I’m Zhang Han Tian, the Clan Leader of the Zhang Clan Leader in the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Heavenly Territory. I apologize for our lack of hospitality. Please forgive us.” Zhang Han Tian formally bowed again to pay respect to Zhuge Feng and Zhuge Yun. At this moment, his back was drenched in cold sweat. If he had known their identities earlier, he would have been even more respectful.

When Zhang Han Tian bowed and Yuan Ming Yuan was about to follow suit, Zhuge Yun scoffed.

Zhuge Yun raised her hand as a sword shot out toward Yuan Ming Yun. Those in the know would be able to tell that the sword was the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect’s legendary and precious sword, the Mo Xie Celestial Sword. It was naturally not the famous Mo Xie Sword from earth, a planet in the Yan Huang Realm. It was an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon that the founders of the sect asked a weaponsmith to forge.

In the past, the founders of the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect had hired weaponsmiths to forge ten Emperor Grade Celestial Swords. They had traveled far and wide in various Devata Realms to search for the necessary materials. Therefore, the ten Emperor Grade Celestial Swords in the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect were much more powerful than ordinary Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons. In fact, they were comparable to Devata Artifacts. Moreover, a soulless Devata Artifact was no match for them at all.

Swoosh!

The Mo Xie Celestial Sword glow red. It looked peculiar; there seemed to be blood vessels on it with blood constantly flowing through them.

Meanwhile, after discovering the two Celestial Emperors were Zhuge Feng and Zhuge Yun, Yuan Ming Yun knew he would have to face the consequences since he had offended them.

As Yuan Ming Yun unleashed his Celestial Origin Energy without holding back to defend against Zhuge Yun’s Mo Xie Celestial Sword, he pleaded, “Lord Zhuge Yun, please have mercy.”

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of earth-shattering explosions rang in the air as the energies from both sides collided.

The Mo Xie Celestial Sword continued on its path toward Yuan Ming Yun after breaching his defenses.

At this moment, Yuan Ming Yun’s eyes glinted as his Celestial Origin Energy surged and seemed to intensify. Following that, he hurriedly brought out Celestial Talismans and quickly crushed them.

Whoosh!

A defensive barrier created from the numerous talismans was instantly erected in front of Yuan Ming Yun and deflected Zhuge Yun’s Mo Xie Celestial Sword. After deflecting the sword, the barrier trembled violently before it disappeared.

“As expected of a Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan. I didn’t expect to see so many high-grade defensive Celestial Talismans,” Zhuge Yun said airily as she looked at Yuan Ming Yun disdainfully.

Meanwhile, the Mo Xie Celestial Sword returned to Zhuge Yun’s hand.

“Lord Zhuge Yun, how… How did I offend you? Why must you kill me?” Although Yuan Ming Yuan possessed many defensive Celestial Talismans, he still felt frightened and vulnerable when he saw the killing intent in Zhuge Yun’s eyes that did not abate at all. Moreover, Zhuge Yun had Zhuge Feng by her side now. If both of them joined forces, all his defensive Celestial Talismans would be useless. The Celestial Talismans could only defend against ordinary Celestial Emperors at most. Moreover, the number of attacks the barrier could withstand was not infinite.

“You want to kill my Mo Xie Progeny’s only disciple… How could I spare you?” Zhuge Yun scoffed.

Yuan Ming Yuan was shocked upon hearing Zhuge Yun’s words. His expression turned grave immediately. The Thousand Phantom Ice Fox that he wanted to kill was the only disciple of the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect’s Mo Xie Progeny?

Since Zhuge Feng and Zhuge Yun were rather famous, the progenies they belonged to were known to everyone as well. Apart from that, people also knew the Gan Jiang Progeny and the Mo Xie Progeny never had disciples at all.

Now that Yuan Ming Yun learned that the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox had become the only disciple of the Mo Xie Progeny, he knew he could no longer kill the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox today. He would have to scheme and do it in secret; he also had to make sure not to leave any traces that would lead back to him. Otherwise, a disaster would fall on the Phantom Fox Clan’s Yuan Clan.

Zhuge Yun might not be capable of annihilating his clan alone, but with Zhuge Feng, it would not be a difficult feat at all. Since Zhuge Yun and Zhuge Feng were twins, would Zhuge Feng do nothing to help his sister?

Yuan Ming Yun’s expression was dark as he was lost in thoughts.

Whoosh!

At this moment, Zhuge Feng disappeared into thin air and reappeared behind Yuan Ming Yun.

A sword cry rang in the air as Zhuge Feng raised his hand. A sword shot out toward Yuan Ming Yun immediately.

Meanwhile, Yuan Ming Yuan did not even notice Zhuge Feng was behind him since his attention was focused on Zhuge Yun. As expected, just like that, he was killed by Zhuge Feng.

“How fast!” Duan Ling Tian could not help but exclaim when he saw Zhuge Feng move. Zhuge Feng’s speed was not inferior to the speed of the Teleportation Profundity so one could imagine just how terrifyingly fast Zhuge Feng’s speed that was boosted by the law of wind was. He thought to himself, ‘His speed is too fast. With his speed, it’s not difficult for him to catch up to me even if I use the Teleportation Profundity.’

Yuan Ming Yun, the Clan Leader of the Yuan Clan Leader of the main Phantom Fox Clan in the Heavenly Territory, was killed in a blink of an eye before Zhang Han Tian and the other elders. All of them, apart from Yuan Yue, the Grand Elder of the Yuan Clan, did not dare to move a muscle at all when they witnessed Yuan Ming Yun’s death. Since the twins were capable of killing Yuan Ming Yun, it would be no harder than flicking their fingers if the twins wanted to kill them.

Zhang Han Tian gulped. He did not expect to watch his rival for so many years die before his eyes. Despite being rivals, they were in the same clan after all. He could not help but feel sympathetic over Yuan Ming Yun’s death. Nevertheless, he did not want to end up like his rival so he said resolutely, “My lords, the Zhang Clan will never harm Miss Huan’er.”

Zhang Han Tian was relieved that he was not very insistent about killing the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox. Although the appearance of the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox in the Du Clan might pose a threat to the Zhang Clan, the relationship between both clans was not as tense compared to the Yuan Clan. If he truly harbored hatred toward Huan’er, he would not have been able to suppress his killing intent when he saw Huan’er’s true form.

At this moment, Yuan Yue, the Grand Elder of the Yuan Clan, hurriedly said in earnest, “My lords, the Yuan Clan will never ever attack the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox as well.” He looked at Zhuge Feng and Zhuge Yun fearfully as he spoke.
