Chapter 545: Chapter 545: The Wisdom of Yan Chongzhi

The Yinmi Plaza was utterly transformed, now a vast ruin with cracks and deep depressions, looking extremely eerie. The three dynasties' dragon platforms still stood, but the emperors' emotions had changed significantly.

Especially for the Da Xun Dynasty, Guo Feng's eyes were bloodshot, his fists clenched, almost ready to challenge Zhong Shan personally. An earth-shattering reversal had occurred.

Two days ago, after Xianxian made Xue Xie Luo swear a blood oath, Xue Xie Luo and his ten thousand blood wolves left the Da Xun Dynasty's army and stood before Zhong Shan's dragon platform, respectfully waiting. Xue Xie Luo even waited before the platform for Xianxian to wake up.

The three dynasties hadn't left yet, partly because they were waiting for the results from the Yinmi Mountains, where the ownership of the remaining twenty-five cities was still undecided. It was clear that the Da Xun Dynasty had suffered a great loss—not only in territory but also in losing their national beasts. The blood wolf clan had been lured away by the Da Zeng Dynasty.

"Yawn~~~!"

Xianxian lazily yawned, finally waking up. She blinked her eyes open and found herself lying in Zhong Shan's arms again, feeling incredibly comfortable.

Before she could transform into a human, Xianxian's favorite place was sleeping in Zhong Shan's arms. Zhong Shan had always doted on her. After she became human, she lost that privilege. She never expected that getting injured would allow her to sleep there again.

Smelling the familiar scent, Xianxian squinted her eyes, pretending not to be awake. Such a big yawn—anyone would know she was awake, pretending otherwise.

Zhong Shan: "..."

"Xue Xie Luo greets the Lord," Xue Xie Luo called out respectfully.

In these two days, Xue Xie Luo had come to understand everything. His cultivation hadn't decreased, meaning Xianxian's life force hadn't suppressed his due to the blood oath. This could only mean that Xianxian's life force was nobler than that of the Emperor Extreme Realm. Heavenly life force? No wonder she was so bold.

Moreover, Sha Po, who was in the Emperor Extreme Realm, respectfully addressed her as the Young Master, implying there was a master above Sha Po. If Sha Po was in the Emperor Extreme Realm, then his master must be in the Heavenly Extreme Realm. A Heavenly Extreme Realm wolf clan?

How could he not know of a Heavenly Extreme Realm wolf clan in the underworld? But the fact was that the Young Master's life force surpassed the Emperor Extreme Realm, implying the old master's life force was even higher.

It was impossible for Xue Xie Luo not to feel regret, but knowing their strength greatly diminished his regret.

"That wolf general is calling you," Zhong Shan nudged Xianxian.

Knowing she couldn't pretend any longer, Xianxian reluctantly transformed back into her human form, glaring at Xue Xie Luo.

"Hmm, that ugly guy, since you've become my subordinate, stay in the Da Zeng Dynasty, behave, and don't embarrass me," Xianxian said bluntly.

"Yes!" Xue Xie Luo replied, his face twitching slightly.

Without needing further instructions, Xue Xie Luo led the ten thousand blood wolves to join Zhong Shan's army.

In the distance, Guo Feng watched as Xue Xie Luo joined the Da Zeng ranks, unable to hide his hatred. His eyes were bloodshot, glaring at Zhong Shan, but knowing Zhong Shan's power, he held back his anger and didn't lash out.

An Emperor Extreme Realm? How could a dynasty possess someone in the Emperor Extreme Realm? How many Emperor Extreme Realm experts existed in the underworld? This one dynasty harbored one? No, the Da Ying Dynasty also harbored an Emperor Extreme Realm expert. Has the world changed? How did these two dynasties conceal their power so deeply?

Just as Guo Feng was feeling both furious and fearful,

"Whoosh~~~!"

From the southern part of the Yinmi Mountains, which was the northern part of Yinmi Plaza, a troop suddenly emerged. The vanguard was composed of human soldiers. Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

The Da Zeng Dynasty?

Yan Chongzhi and Guo Feng were both surprised to see the approaching army, clearly dressed in Da Zeng military uniforms. They had emerged first?

As the soldiers stepped forward, a large commanding flag followed, carried by Lin Xiao, also emerging from the Yinmi Mountains.

Lin Xiao!

The commander of the first corps of the Da Zeng Dynasty, the Great General Lin Xiao!

The Old Wine Man took out the jar of wine he had previously received from Zhong Shan.

"What is it?" Yan Chongzhi asked, slightly surprised.

"This wine, it's not from the underworld," the Old Wine Man said after some thought.

"Oh?" Yan Chongzhi was slightly surprised.

"The fruits used to brew this wine come from the yang world. The wine contains the essence of golden sunlight and silver moonlight," the Old Wine Man explained.

Golden sunlight and silver moonlight, only present in the yang world; the underworld only has purple sunlight and red moonlight.

"The yang world?" Yan Chongzhi frowned.

"Indeed. Among those people, Sha Po had the highest cultivation, but he was strangely respectful towards Zhong Shan. And that little wolf was also quite puzzling," the Old Wine Man said, frowning.

"That's not right!" Yan Chongzhi's eyes widened with realization, his expression growing serious.

"Oh?" The Old Wine Man looked at Yan Chongzhi.

"Sha Po is powerful, in the Emperor Extreme Realm, but he's not the strongest on that dragon platform. There are at least two people stronger than him!" Yan Chongzhi said suddenly.

"Uh?" The Old Wine Man was slightly taken aback.

"Firstly, Zhong Shan. When Zhong Shan looks at Sha Po, he doesn't have that eager, fervent look of someone seeking capable subordinates. He's very casual, yet Sha Po is incredibly respectful to him. This shows that, based purely on strength, Zhong Shan can suppress Sha Po!" Yan Chongzhi stated confidently.

"Hmm!" The Old Wine Man nodded.

"Secondly, there was a pale man standing behind Zhong Shan. Do you remember him?" Yan Chongzhi asked seriously.

Yan Chongzhi had a keen eye, noticing even those who seemed insignificant behind Zhong Shan.

"The one with a deathly aura? I sensed a hint of corpse energy from him, but he wasn't a zombie. He was still human," the Old Wine Man recalled.

"His name is Mr. Corpse. In the entire Da Zeng Dynasty, he only bows to Zhong Shan," Yan Chongzhi said, taking a deep breath.

Only bows to Zhong Shan? Yan Chongzhi's thorough investigation was impressive. Knowing oneself and the enemy is the key to victory, and Yan Chongzhi was meticulous in his approach. The Old Wine Man, while admiring Yan Chongzhi's ability, began to recall earlier events in detail.

"I remember now. Even when Sha Po displayed his immense power, Mr. Corpse's eyes remained indifferent," a minister nearby recalled.

"Indifferent? Why? Because he didn't even consider Sha Po's power significant!" Yan Chongzhi asserted.

The Emperor Extreme Realm? To think nothing of it?

How could that be? The ministers were bewildered.

"And then there's that white wolf, Xianxian. It's peculiar how Sha Po, in the Emperor Extreme Realm, is so respectful to her," another minister shook his head.

"And Lin Xiao. Achieving such a remarkable feat in just three days? That's unbelievable!" another minister commented, frowning deeply.

"These four individuals appeared with Zhong Shan, emerging out of nowhere, and in just six years, they conquered the Da Xian Dynasty and established the Da Zeng Dynasty. It seems highly likely that Zhong Shan is a formidable figure from the yang world," Yan Chongzhi speculated.

In a short time, based on small details like Mr. Corpse's expressions, Yan Chongzhi deduced Zhong Shan's background. Truly remarkable. This man was indeed wise and strategic, befitting an emperor.

"But, Your Majesty, the yin and yang realms are not connected. Only when a yang world person dies and becomes a ghost, or when a ghost reincarnates into the yang world, can they travel back and forth. Otherwise, only immortals can do so. Could it be that this group has reached the immortal realm?" a minister pondered, frowning.

"We don't know for now!" Yan Chongzhi frowned deeply, still puzzled.
