The last time he emerged from seclusion, it had essentially been on the verge of a storm.
The Taiping Sect rose too quickly, and Huangtian had become unexpectedly formidable; he was not inferior to any of the Four Kings.
Merely due to this, the people from the Four Dynasties wouldn’t easily let him off.
This time, Wang Sheng didn’t contact Yue for information, but went directly to Yuelai Inn in Jiangyuan City to find Zhu Xiao.
The Yuelai Inn of Chi State was also one of the central five states, and with Zhu Xiao being a top-notch powerhouse, the information she knew was certainly not something ordinary people could compare with.
Last time when Huangtian and the Four Kings had a suspected battle, it was the information from Yuelai Inn.
After informing the Shopkeeper of Yuelai Inn in Jiangyuan City, Zhu Xiao still arrived the next day, very quickly.
Because of the advancement of “Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter,” Wang Sheng’s Divine Thought had grown even stronger; even if Zhu Xiao didn’t demonstrate it, he could assess her approximate strength.
Even though he couldn’t break through to a higher realm, Zhu Xiao’s strength seemed to have advanced again; he didn’t know how she did it, but her aura had become even fiercer.
Zhu Xiao appeared somewhat pleased upon seeing Wang Sheng.
Wang Sheng could be said to be one of her few friends.
However, about private matters, Zhu Xiao wouldn’t inquire casually, but instead asked, “What’s the matter this time?”
“cough cough, do I always need to have some matter to find you?”
“Isn’t that the case?” Zhu Xiao’s words were very sincere, so sincere that Wang Sheng couldn’t refute them.
Indeed it seemed that way, mainly because Yuelai Inn was such a powerful force that was too convenient for information—there was basically nothing they didn’t know.
“What is it this time?”
Actually, Zhu Xiao didn’t mind; she understood the things Wang Sheng needed to do, as success would greatly benefit her too.
“I wanted to ask about Huangtian’s situation again, it shouldn’t be good, right?”
Even if he wasn’t clear about the actions of the Four Dynasties, some things could easily be guessed unless the Four Dynasties gave up their struggle for dominance; otherwise, they wouldn’t let Huangtian settle in the central five states so visibly.
“Indeed, it’s not good,” Zhu Xiao nodded. “He now occupies two states, Mountain Pass State and Yu State, but now he is being targeted by a coalition of the Four Dynasties.”
“How are they targeting him?”
“The two states have been directly blockaded by the outside world; people can’t enter from outside, and those inside can’t leave. The blockade has greatly impacted lives.”
To blockade two states was actually not anything significant for the Four Dynasties; they could easily do it, even without great cost. However, for those occupying or with forces in these states, after a prolonged time, it would be a devastating blow.
“What’s the situation with the Taiping Sect?”
Zhu Xiao shook her head and said, “Actually, the blockade started two months ago. At first, I thought this blockade would cause the collapse of the Taiping Sect, but in fact, the Taiping Sect has been more spirited, and it seems they will fight back soon!”
“Fight back? Do they have the strength? Also, last time, when the Four Kings together targeted Huangtian, did Huangtian defeat them?”
The last time he came out, he knew about this incident, but he had no idea of the details.
“Indeed, the Four Kings went together to find Huangtian, they even reached out to me, although I did not agree. I still secretly went and watched a thrilling fight. I must say, Huangtian truly is a monster; I don’t even know how you trained him!”
“He might not be weaker than me, nor inferior to any of the Four Kings. Of course, ideally, if the Four Kings united sincerely, taking down Huangtian would not have been a problem. But Huangtian had some kind of terrifying trump card that scared them.
If he was desperate, he could take one down with him, so the Four Kings were wary, no one wanted to end up mutually destroyed with Huangtian, thus in the end, they could not come to a resolution, until two months ago, when they reached some sort of agreement and blockaded the two states.”
At that time, Zhu Xiao was fully watching the battle and even prepared to act when appropriate, but Huangtian proved to be stronger than she anticipated.
That’s why she didn’t reveal herself, but she knew detailed information.
“According to you, Huangtian went from an ordinary person to his current position in just two years; even if special, it’s too special, isn’t it? How did you teach him?”
She expressed her amazement again at Huangtian’s staggering performance.
“Train him?”
Wang Sheng thought about it; he indeed had trained him for a while, but even he had not anticipated that Huangtian would rise so quickly in such a short time.
Nor did he understand where that enormous spiritual power came from even now.
At that time, he had also investigated, but he couldn’t find any explanation.
“To achieve these, although related to me, more of it is due to his own efforts. I just don’t know if he can overcome this crisis!”
“I think he can!” Zhu Xiao had been paying attention for a long time and knew many things, “Huangtian is hiding something, it seems he will act soon.”
Wang Sheng didn’t speak; this time, he had originally come out to understand the situation and then continue his seclusion, but looking at the current circumstances, he could stay a bit longer.
He also wanted to see Huangtian’s trump card.
What kind of trump card allowed Huangtian to advance so quickly.
It wouldn’t be that Huangtian had already attracted the Heavenly Father without him knowing; that would be a huge blunder!
“Want to watch the situation?”
Wang Sheng nodded.
“Then stay here for a few days. This year, I have also not made a small progress.”
