Chapter 1295: Chapter 791: Movements from All Sides, Silent Infiltration (Part 2)
"Well said." The terrifying figure nodded in approval. "This matter is indeed beneficial for us. It depends on how much surprise this mysterious strongman can bring us. If he can fight to death with several elders of the Holy Alliance, it will be a great opportunity for us Demon Clan."
"Nine Kills, you’re thinking..."
Upon hearing this, the figures on the other thrones all trembled in unison.
"Exactly, if several old fellows of the Holy Alliance really die, perhaps it’s time for us to expand our territory."
The terrifying figure shrouded in black air said indifferently, "This Heavenly Origin Great World has been peaceful for too long. It’s also time for some excitement."
...
"Is this the Heavenly Saint Peak?"
In the sky above, Lu Qing gazed at the vast mountain ahead.
Heavenly Saint Peak, a divine mountain appearing grander than the Tianshu Divine Mountain, is also the headquarters of the Human Race Holy Alliance.
The Holy Alliance Heavenly Prison is also set within Heavenly Saint Peak.
Therefore, when Nangong Yuanwu was asked about the situation of the Holy Alliance Heavenly Prison by Lu Qing, he didn’t immediately comprehend that Lu Qing was planning a prison break.
After all, breaking into the Holy Alliance’s base for a jailbreak is something even the most powerful Demon Lord wouldn’t dare to consider.
Initially, Lu Qing thought of using the top-grade Spiritual Stones to cultivate to the Nine Tribulations of Primordial Spirit before emerging.
By then, no one in the Heavenly Origin Great World could rival him.
The so-called Holy Alliance headquarters couldn’t possibly stop him.
Unexpectedly, unable to locate him, the Holy Alliance resorted to using the Five Treasure Taoist’s life as leverage to make him reveal himself.
"Since they wish to see me so much, I’ll let them enjoy the surprise I’ve prepared for them,"
Lu Qing softly muttered as he looked at the vast Heavenly Saint Mountain ahead.
Though the Holy Alliance’s move surprised him, it wasn’t without its advantages.
On the day of execution, they needed to bring the Five Treasure Taoist and others out of the prison and escort them to the execution ground.
This saved Lu Qing the effort of searching for them.
Lu Qing’s figure suddenly vanished from the sky.
When he reappeared, he was already in front of a vast city.
His aura and appearance had changed completely, turning into an ordinary Golden Core Realm cultivator coming from afar to witness the commotion.
Indeed, just to witness the commotion.
A year ago, the Holy Alliance grandly announced to the entire world, declaring that in a year they would execute the human race traitors who colluded with evil demons.
This immediately caused a sensation across the world.
As a result, it piqued the curiosity of countless cultivators eager to see what kind of traitors were worth such a ruckus from the Holy Alliance.
The world has never lacked the curious, so over the past year, numerous cultivators from all corners have flocked to the foot of Heavenly Saint Peak.
All wanting to join in the spectacle.
The city before Lu Qing is one of the eight major cities at the foot of Heavenly Saint Peak.
It’s also the closest city to the execution site, the Sky Punishment Platform.
With Lu Qing’s current cultivation level, the transformed aura was indistinguishable by anyone.
Therefore, he effortlessly blended into the city and found an inn to settle in.
Tomorrow at noon is the announced time for the execution; he still had a day to prepare.
While Lu Qing secretly infiltrated the city, numerous formidable figures were gathering atop Heavenly Saint Peak, seemingly discussing something.
"Master Lei, tomorrow is the day of execution, and over the past year, those evil demons have not shown up. Is your plan reliable?" An elder frowned.
"Indeed, we’ve been on high alert this past year, yet those evil demons have remained inactive. Are you sure this method is feasible?" Another elder said.
"If you ask me, you might be overvaluing the relationship between those Golden Core and evil demons. According to our findings, they merely traveled with the demons for a short period; the relationship isn’t as close as imagined."
"Please calm down, Hall Masters." Facing the elders’ doubts, Lei Tian remained unchanged in expression. "Whether it is or isn’t will naturally be revealed by noon tomorrow. There’s no need to be hasty."
"But if by noon tomorrow the evil demons still don’t show, do we really execute those Golden Core?" an elder asked.
"Naturally." Lei Tian nodded. "Colluding with evil demons is a capital crime. This matter has been proclaimed by our Holy Alliance. How could it be undone? Besides, everyone knows that those Golden Core actively mingled with evil demons, thus deserving their fate.
Even if it doesn’t lure the demons out, it can at least deter the weaklings, reminding them of the consequences of betraying our Human Race."
Upon hearing this, some elders showed a hint of unnatural expression.
They knew Lei Tian’s words were actually baseless accusations.
According to the Holy Alliance’s investigation, although the Five Treasure Taoist and Ye Qingzhu were relatively close to the evil demons for some time.
That’s because the demons concealed their identities, and they failed to recognize them.
Strictly speaking, they were deceived, not truly colluding with evil demons.
Faced with such circumstances, being sentenced to capital punishment naturally made some elders feel uneasy.
However, seeing Lei Tian’s indifferent look and many elders standing behind him, any sentiment was quickly suppressed.
Currently, in the Holy Alliance, the Xing Hall and Sword Hall wield immense influence, controlling most of the discourse.
Even if they oppose, the majority voice would likely override them.
Seeing no further questions, Lei Tian showed a satisfied smile.
This time, leveraging the crisis caused by the demons’ return, he seized the opportunity to win over numerous elders, significantly boosting his influence in the Holy Alliance.
From a certain perspective, he actually had the demons to thank.
However, Lei Tian quickly hid the smile, sternly saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, we must be careful. Tomorrow is the crucial day. If those demons truly appear, it will rely on everyone to suppress them."
"Naturally, this is Heavenly Saint Peak. Even if the Nine Tribulations of Primordial Spirit come, they’d have to lie low. It’s just an evil demon; surely it can’t overturn the world." An elder immediately said.
"Then I’ll rely on everyone."
After leaving the council hall, Lei Tian didn’t return to his Cave Mansion but headed straight to the Heavenly Prison.
"Master Lei, what brings you here?"
As he approached, the bald elder guarding the Heavenly Prison materialized.
Looking at Lei Tian with vigilant eyes.
Over these years, he watched how this one borrowed the crisis caused by the demons’ return to deploy his strategies and win people over.
In just a few years, he witnessed this one’s ambitious nature.
If not for the Alliance Hierarch still restraining him, this one might cause even more commotion.
But the Hierarch, true to his name, has long been secluded in the Star Sky Secret Land, comprehending the Great Dao, scarcely questioning Heavenly Origin Great World’s matters.
So, despite having complaints, the bald elder didn’t express them.
"Not much. Tomorrow is the execution date. I came to see if there’s anything I can help with here," Lei Tian smiled.
The bald elder shook his head, "All’s well within the Heavenly Prison. With the Artifact Spirit present, those criminals inside can’t cause much stir."
The Holy Alliance’s Heavenly Prison houses numerous Primordial Spirit Realm beings.
But throughout countless ages, it has never faltered.
All thanks to the Heavenly Prison itself being an exceedingly powerful Magical Treasure.
With the Artifact Spirit constantly monitoring the internal activity, any prisoner movement is instantly known to the bald elder.
"With you here, I’m naturally assured. By the way, may I meet those Golden Core?"
"Master Lei wishes to see those people?" The bald elder paused slightly, "What’s your purpose?"
"Just to give them a few things."
A mysterious smile appeared on Lei Tian’s face.
