Chapter 1322: Chapter 706: Ten Thousand Dragon Pearl

The battlefield was as silent as if a mute button had been pressed, even the battle on Zhang Qingcang’s side had already stopped.

Obviously, Su Jie’s one-hit kill of Fu Yunhan brought an unparalleled psychological shock to everyone present.

A strongman among the Exotic Realm Cultivators was utterly powerless before Su Jie.

Su Jie flicked the bloodstains off his hand, his eyes calm as if he had casually crushed a chicken to death.

With Su Jie’s current realm, not only was he at the late stage of the Purple Mansion, he had cultivated the Purple Mansion Celestial Palace and refined three-tenths of the Moon. His Innate Divine Body had undergone significant transformation.

In layman’s terms, Su Jie’s current state barely qualifies as a half-step Void.

At such a realm, Su Jie’s combat against other late-stage Purple Mansion Cultivators would appear extremely simple and brutal; overwhelming with sheer force could easily sweep aside a cluster.

"What are you looking at? Be honest with me. I’m talking about you guys."

Seeing Su Jie’s great show of power, Ning Xinyue trembled instantly, pointing at Li Daozhong and shouting.

Li Daozhong frowned, seeing Fu Yunhan’s end, hesitated, and stepped back.

Su Jie glanced at him, ignored him, and walked to the edge of the lake.

Several Purple Mansion Cultivators were inside, involved in the destruction of the Da Li Dragon Vein.

The dragon vein formed by clouds occasionally rolled, resonating with a long vibration between a dragon’s roar and a bell toll deep underground.

"Get out!"

Su Jie swept a cold gaze, the Evil Qi surged, making several Exotic Realm Cultivators’ faces change slightly, cautiously jumping out of the lake, as Fu Yunhan’s fate was clearly visible to them earlier, not daring to provoke Su Jie easily.

"Su Jie, are you going to help the Da Li Dynasty? Destroying this dragon vein benefits everyone. Once the Da Li Dynasty falls, your Ghost Ridge Palace will have hope of ruling the world."

Li Daozhong, seeing Su Jie intending to protect the Da Li Dragon Vein, became anxious for fear of failing Nine Heavens Saint Son Meng Lei Ze’s task.

Wei Yushuang heard this and was immediately furious, her almond eyes fierce and her brows furrowed, she snapped coldly: "Li Daozhong, shame on you aristocratic families, favoring the Royal Family’s grace but not thinking to repay the court, instead serving as cows and horses for Exotic Realm Cultivators, helping tyrants. Truly unworthy as sons."

Li Daozhong ignored and simply spoke: "Princess Wei, our family’s survival strategy is to seek gains and avoid losses. Blame your Royal Family, if they don’t have enough power, then don’t occupy this splendid land.

Su Sect Master, earlier my offense, actually our family can submit to you. As long as the Da Li Dragon Vein is severed, the Da Li Royal Family’s power will deteriorate to the extreme, and when the world is in turmoil, we can support you in becoming Emperor."

Li Daozhong repeatedly cupped his hands and bowed to Su Jie, emphasizing the ability to be flexible.

Seeing Su Jie’s strong power, he thought of first submitting to Su Jie. Once the Da Li Dragon Vein is destroyed, the Ancient Continent ultimately belongs to Nine Heavens Holy Land.

Even if Su Jie becomes Emperor at that time, he must abide by Nine Heavens Holy Land, and compromise with their families.

Using the aristocratic families as leverage, Li Daozhong doesn’t believe Su Jie wouldn’t be tempted; this is a possibility of ascending to Emperor and advancing to the Void realm!

With these local aristocratic families’ support, the hope of becoming Emperor will greatly increase, anyone would be tempted.

"What a fool, even if the Da Li Dragon Vein isn’t severed, I can still rule the world."

Upon hearing Li Daozhong’s persuasion, Su Jie only found it amusing.

The Da Li Dynasty was already considered by Su Jie as a sure possession, strength being Su Jie’s biggest confidence, why need these aristocratic families’ assistance, much less sever the Da Li Dragon Vein.

The Da Li Dragon Vein concerns the natural beings within the Da Li Dynasty territory.

Once it’s severed, various natural disasters will strike across the Da Li Dynasty territory, combined with the Da Li Royal Family’s cultivation of the "Dragon Suppressing Heavenly Net Divine Scripture" binding with the dragon vein, when the Da Li Dragon Vein is destroyed, the Royal Family will be countered, their strength sharply declining.

For those Purple Mansion strongmen attempting to rule the world, the more chaotic the situation, the more they can flourish.

However, Su Jie doesn’t need that; he doesn’t want to inherit a broken country, since he already has enough power, why make the nation he’s destined to control suffer constant disasters, Su Jie hasn’t lost his mind.

Only those Purple Mansion Cultivators lacking strength would do such a thing.

Wei Yushuang felt very complicated, feeling fortunate for Su Jie protecting the Da Li Dragon Vein, yet apprehensive of Su Jie’s ambition.

Such an enemy, is the current Da Li Royal Family really able to withstand?

Li Daozhong gritted his teeth and said: "Su Sect Master, severing the Da Li Dragon Vein is of significant importance. Once this task is completed, our family can fully assist Ghost Ridge Palace, helping it quell various rebel forces, govern citizens, and return you a bright sky, enabling the new dynasty to quickly emerge from its predicament, allowing Su Sect Master to peacefully prepare for advancing to the Void realm, the mundane affairs can be managed by us."

"Tsk tsk, you’re betting on my face, you dream well. For your aristocratic families’ arrangements, this seat has long concluded. Each of you is merely my purse, not meant to manage this seat’s purse, remember your status and inferiority."

Su Jie chuckled coldly, these aristocratic families still want to gamble on him, striving for success, unaware that their fate has already been arranged clearly by Su Jie.

The Heavenly Dao Level Wonder built by Su Jie now only includes the Thirty-three Layered Heavenly Palace, with three other Wonders lacking funds for construction.

One Heavenly Dao Level Wonder costs ten billion Spirit Stones, and these hundreds of billions of Spirit Stone deficits, what better targets to seek than these thousand-year aristocratic families?
