“After talking so much, aren’t you all just trying to borrow a knife to kill?”
The high priest stared at the Nine Supremes Tu Jiu with a burning gaze and teased, “How dare you? You’re only a Venerable of the Law Enforcement Hall. The Heavenly Ghost King and the others are all one of the 36 Kings of the King’s Hall. They have contributed greatly to the Zombie Divine Hall. If this matter gets out, you’ll probably be beaten to death by the kings before you can walk out of the Zombie Divine Hall.”
“It’s not that serious. More specifically, it’s supposed to be a test and a warning.”
“Credit and merit are not their capital to be reckless. Most important of all, there are only advantages to this matter for the high priest.”
Tu Jiu was fearless.
He looked up and his cold eyes flashed. “This is a rare opportunity. As for killing me, they might not be a match for me.”
“Ninth Brother, it seems that you’ve gained a lot from that magical place. You can actually say such arrogant words.”
The high priest narrowed his eyes and looked slightly surprised.
The Ninth Venerable, Tu Jiu, had always been cold and strict.
He would never do something he wasn’t confident of.
The implied meaning of these words was already indicating to her that this fellow’s combat strength was no weaker than the Heavenly Ghost King and the other King-level powerhouses.
This was ridiculous. After all, Tu Jiu was the ninth of the 72 Venerables.
Even the number one Blood Vengeance was far from being a match for the Heavenly Ghost King, but he dared to say that he was not inferior to the Heavenly Ghost King.
“Fortunately, I was lucky enough to exchange for some royal-grade divine meridians and increase my Heart of the Divine Dao. In the end, I accidentally comprehended the King Domain.”
Tu Jiu replied cockily.
“Hiss—”
Not far away, the Second Venerable, Shang Wanjian, sucked in a breath of cold air and interrupted sourly, “Old Nine, you’re really dishonest. There’s such a great treasure land, but you didn’t bring me along. It hurts my heart.”
“Aren’t you already a king? Why do you still need to go to the mystical land?” Tu Jiu asked.
“!!!”
“Both of you!”
The high priest ground his teeth. There was a rattle between her sparkling fingerbones.
She never expected that her two little brothers would actually become king-level powerhouses behind her back.
However, she could not sense it and had not been told in advance. This did not prevent her from feeling a trace of indignation.
“There’s no need to be angry, High Priest. This isn’t to surprise you. The three of us are in the same boat. None of us can escape.”
Shang Wanjian chuckled and rolled his eyes. He added almost explicitly, “Actually, I think Ninth Brother is right. The Heavenly Ghost King, the Blood Sea King, and the others are old and disrespectful. They often don’t take you seriously. Now, the new season’s master is also a troublemaker. We should let them fight each other.”
“If the Heavenly Ghost King and his men lose, then they are incompetent and deserve to die.”
“At that time, Old Nine, I, and a few brothers who are developing in the dark will be able to take the opportunity to ascend the throne in a logical manner.”
“On the other hand, if they win, you will also gain the credit of having commanded them well and your reputation will definitely rise.”
“In time, you will definitely become the number one minister under the Zombie God.”
“In any case, we will win. Why don’t we give it a try?”
“That’s good. It’s time for our lineage to make a move. Otherwise, they’ll really think that we’re all vegetarians.”
The high priest nodded slowly, crimson marks flashing in her eyes as countless spatial particles surged.
Immediately after, a huge golden token appeared.
The surface of this token was engraved with a complete map of the Zombie God Realm. Every blood-colored dot represented a king-level powerhouse guarding a region.
This was the Tiger Talisman Dharma Token.
According to the rules of the Zombie Divine Hall.
One could directly control the King’s Palace, the Law Enforcement Hall, the Venerable Hall, and countless zombie armies guarding the major maps except the Elder Hall with this token alone.
“Summon the Heavenly Ghost King, the Blood Sea King, King Tian Bei and King Zhen Bei!”
The high priest entered the command.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In an instant, the void trembled, and a few faint red projections descended.
As the light flickered, several figures with terrifying auras and murderous intent walked out.
“High Priest, we’re still asleep. It’s against the rules to summon us old men at this hour.”
As soon as he appeared, a skinny old man in the lead frowned and said unhappily.
“Whether it’s in accordance with the rules is up to me.”
The high priest glanced at the old man coldly. “Ghost, don’t blame me for not reminding you. At the end of last season, you were still missing two missions. I ignored you and didn’t report it to the Elders’ Council. I just hope that you can be self-aware.”
Hearing this, the Heavenly Ghost King became unhappy. He was a veteran of many dynasties and had contributed greatly to the Zombie God Realm.
Even the Zombie God respected him. This little high priest was simply too disrespectful.
But before he could speak, the high priest continued, “I forgot to tell you that King Xing Chen’s true body is dead.”
“???”
“WHAT!!!”
The whole body of the Heavenly Ghost King was stunned.
He could not believe it. That was King Xing Chen. He was at least in the top twenty of the 36 Kings.
Such beings were not trash.
Before King Xing Chen was released, he had specially made a deal with him at the price of a Blood God Essence Crystal.
‘Bloody hell, did that dog betray me?’
In an instant, the Heavenly Ghost King became nervous.
Colluding with other kings and ambushing a Zombie Divine Palace’s powerhouse was a serious crime.
Once the evidence was conclusive, even his uncle in the Elder’s Hall would not be able to protect it.
Therefore, when he met the high priest’s gaze again, he did not dare to look directly at her. He reluctantly chose to lower his head.
Beside him, the Blood Sea King, King Tian Bei and King Zhen Bei were all old foxes. All of them looked down and watched from the sidelines.
“Blood Vengeance is dead, too!” The high priest released another bomb.
“Impossible. Blood Vengeance has cultivated the Blood Demon God Scripture and has a Life Origin Crystal in his territory. Who can kill him!!” The Blood Sea King suddenly stood up. Blood waves surged behind him. Clearly, his emotions were a little chaotic.
“There has been a rebellion in Blood Vengeance’s territory. It’s all because of a human spy,” the high priest replied calmly.
“Damn it, who killed Blood Vengeance!!” The Blood Sea King gritted his teeth.
He was a “best friend” of Blood Vengeance. Even if he died, he had to at least erase all the evidence of him embezzling the Blood God Ores.
Otherwise, he was also in danger of going to jail.
“Lin Ye. Human Sovereign of the new season.”
“By the way, Mu Dong and Deng Qiu also died at the hands of that Human Lord half an hour ago.”
“!!!”
“What? My nephew was killed?”
“Deng Qiu? My wife, Deng Qiu, is dead?!!!”
“Damn it, who cares if he’s the new Human Sovereign or not? I want him dead!!”
This time, neither King Tian Bei or King Zhen Bei could remain calm.
It was already very difficult for a king-level zombie to continue their bloodline, and relatives of the same bloodline were even rarer.
The death of these two pretty much made them alone.
In an instant, the eyes of the two zombie kings turned red. They gritted their teeth and wished they could immediately kill the so-called Human Sovereign of the Human Race.
Seeing this, the high priest took out the Tiger Token and said in a clear voice, “Heavenly Ghost King, Blood Sea King, King Tian Bei and King Zhen Bei, listen to my orders. How dare Lin Ye kill so many venerables and a supreme King of our race? This is blasphemy to the Zombie Divine Hall.”
“This is the information on the thieves and traitors. Next, I will cut off the transmission channel between the Zombie Divine Realm and the Surface World. Remember, I want to see their heads within a day!”
“By law!”
With the Tiger Talisman out, the four kings accepted the decree respectfully no matter what they thought.
A moment later, they vanished.
In the direction of the King’s Palace, four shocking blood lights tore through the sky and charged aggressively towards Ghost Cry Tomb.
