Emperor's Domination

Chapter 6001: Broken Splendor City

Sky Step heaved a sigh of relief after the old man’s departure. That aura suffocated and nearly forced him to the ground.

“Young Noble, our administration seemed to be lacking, we apologize.” Minisun bowed. If this fellow wasn’t their ancestor, he was still a big shot.

“I thought you were going to find treasures.” Li Qiye wasn’t bothered by the disruption.

“I gave up.” Minisun shook her head: “In my opinion, the whole thing isn’t simple. Unrivalled Monarch seems to be alive so Splendor Terra will stand. There is no need to antagonize them.”

When she came to find the best treasures, she found the monarch to be alive. Therefore, she immediately gave up and contained her greed.

“That makes it more interesting.” Li Qiye smiled.

“May I ask why you are here, Young Noble?” She asked.

“I want something that they just happen to have.” He responded: “Let’s go, wouldn’t want someone else to get it.”

As they moved forward, they came across someone waving at them and yelling: “Young Noble!”

The person flew over and landed before Li Qiye.

“Manager, should you be here? It’s perilous.” Minisun was surprised to see the manager of the city’s Splendor Square.

“Fellow Daoist.” The manager was surprised to see her and bowed: “I’m indeed a bit busy but since the young noble needs something, it’s my top priority.”

Having said that, he took out a box and presented it with both hands to Li Qiye: “Young Noble, this is what you asked for, I was afraid of someone stealing it after the fall of our barrier. Please accept.”

Li Qiye opened it and saw a key - the other half of the one he found in the ruins of Radiant Longevity.

“I appreciate the gesture.” Li Qiye smiled.

“We do what we can to be useful to you.” The manager said humbly.

Sky Step couldn’t believe it. First was Minisun and now a manager of Splendor Square. The latter went through so much trouble just to get a key to Li Qiye.

“Boom!” A devastating blast caught everyone’s attention.

“Fellow Daoist, looks like your sect is in trouble.” Minisun said.

“Young Noble, I must take my leave. We apologize for not showing you our hospitality due to the circumstances. Come back another day and we will make up for this.” The manager bowed and left.

“I don’t think there’s another day. There are many powerful enemies, Buddhist Fiend, Specter Saint, and Omni Grand Emperor are there, I don’t know if they can survive.” Minisun shook her head.

Sky Step shuddered and murmured: “Omni Emperor from Phantom is here too...”

“Yes, big shots from Immortal Suppression have arrived. I don’t know how well Unrivalled Monarch is, that’s the key question. If the monarch were fine and well, this shouldn’t be an issue but if not, that’s the end.” Minisun said.

“Fine, we’re taking a look.” Li Qiye glanced at the key once before looking ahead.

“Looks like Witch King and Sky Tree are focusing on attacking the square, they’ll move on to the fortress and the palace next.” Minisun assessed the situation.

“How grim.” Sky Step took a deep breath.

“It all depends on if Unrivalled Monarch can handle this, and if Splendor Monarch somehow shows up, then we got a show.” Minisun said.

“Splendor Monarch!” Sky Step blurted.

The main branch of Splendor Square was located in this area but today, it has been breached. Powerful sects and even the dynasties couldn’t help themselves and wanted to take advantage of the situation.

Some believed the grand dynasties gave the order to Witch King and Sky Tree to launch an assault. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been so blatant.

“Splendor Square went down!” The group saw cultivators rushing in.

Splendor Square was a massive auction house with mighty defenses. Today, these barriers and buildings were in shambles.

“Splendor Fortress is next.” Minisun shook her head.

“If the fortress cannot hold, then the palace is in trouble as well.” Sky Step had visited this place before and recalled how prosperous it used to be.

“People are already at the palace, we’ll see what happens next. It doesn't look good because top emperors are making moves, Allmountain.” Minisun said.

“Allmountain Emperor of Immortal Suppression, they’re serious.” Sky Step said.

“The treasures here are just too tempting, just a few items in that palace are enough to drive people mad.” Minisun said.

A horn sounded and numerous stone elephants rose from the ruins of Splendor Square. They carried massive treasure troves on their back, heading deeper into the region.

“Retreat!” The remaining members of Splendor had no choice but to evacuate.

“They’re moving to the fortress.” Sky Step observed the stone elephants carrying huge treasuries.

“Where do you think you’re going?!” Several mighty groups broke through the final defense and caught up to the escaping disciples.

The latter unsheathed their weapons, preparing to protect the elephants.
