"What, how could this be?"
Bai Yu'er's beautiful eyes showed a slight surprise when she heard this.
This news was truly beyond her expectation.
The Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom was indeed strong, and it was also the head of the Four Great Ancient Kingdoms.
However, the White Tiger Ancient Kingdom and the Black Tortoise Ancient Kingdom were also extremely powerful, not much weaker than the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom.
Only the Vermillion Bird Ancient Kingdom had seen its national power decline year after year due to the Vermillion Bird Kingdom Lord's severe injuries.
But apart from the Vermillion Bird Ancient Kingdom, the other three Great Ancient Kingdoms should have been roughly on the same level.
It was precisely because of this that Bai Yu'er was surprised. How could the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom have the courage to attack the other two kingdoms?
"What is the current situation?" Bai Yu'er asked.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I heard that the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom actively provoked the War. Their army is very strong, and it seems that many mysterious experts from unknown origins have joined them."
"There's such a thing?" Bai Yu'er fell into deep thought.
Currently, the Vermillion Bird Kingdom Lord was still in seclusion.
After he obtained the Qilin Undying Medicine and recovered from his injuries, the first thing he wanted to do was to go into seclusion, hoping to use this opportunity to Breakthrough to the Saint Realm.
However, how could the Saint Realm be so easy to Breakthrough?
Although the Vermillion Bird Kingdom Lord had accumulated for a long time, and with the help of the Undying Medicine, he still couldn't Breakthrough to the Saint Realm in a short period of time.
Until now, the Vermillion Bird Kingdom Lord had not emerged from seclusion.
All the state affairs of the Vermillion Bird Ancient Kingdom rested on Bai Yu'er's shoulders.
After all, she was the one who saved the Vermillion Bird Kingdom Lord, so now, throughout the entire Ancient Kingdom, apart from the Vermillion Bird Kingdom Lord, Bai Yu'er had the greatest influence.
"Let's observe the situation for now. It's not suitable for our Vermillion Bird Ancient Kingdom to interfere," Bai Yu'er said, waving her hand.
With the current national power of the Vermillion Bird Ancient Kingdom, they also had no ability to interfere.
"Yes." The maid responded and retreated.
Bai Yu'er slightly furrowed her beautiful brows.
"Why exactly? And where did those mysterious experts helping the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom come from?"
Bai Yu'er was pondering.
If she were still Xiao Chen's fiancée, she naturally wouldn't have to worry about such things.
But now, Bai Yu'er had not only severed all ties with Xiao Chen but had also become enemies with him.
Under such circumstances, Bai Yu'er had to worry that the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom would make trouble for the Vermillion Bird Ancient Kingdom.
"I hope I'm overthinking." Bai Yu'er rubbed her temples with her jade fingers.
But for some reason.
She felt an uneasy feeling deep in her heart.
…
Time slowly flowed by.
Inside the Heavenly Emperor Palace of the Jun Family, Jun Xiaoyao was still in seclusion.
He was trying to use the method in the Body Book to refine the bones in his body with Immortal Source.
It took him a full half month to refine the first bone in his body into a great luo immortal bone.
Jun Xiaoyao considered it a bit slow, but if it were anyone else, it might take years to refine even one great luo immortal bone.
The moment the first great luo immortal bone appeared, Jun Xiaoyao felt that the bone glowed golden, as if mystical runes were imprinted on it.
Moreover, this great luo immortal bone was in his arm. When Jun Xiaoyao punched out, he felt that the power was several times stronger than before.
"Not bad. Although the progress is a bit slow, there are results after all," Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.
One great luo immortal bone had such a distinct effect, so what about a few more?
In the end, if all two hundred and six bones in his body transformed into great luo immortal bones, how powerful would that be?
Jun Xiaoyao was increasingly looking forward to the Great Luo Immortal Body.
While Jun Xiaoyao continued his seclusion.
Another astonishing piece of news came from the Four Symbols Ancient Kingdom.
The Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom, with an extremely powerful stance, broke through the national gates of the White Tiger Ancient Kingdom and the Black Tortoise Ancient Kingdom.
Even with the two Great Ancient Kingdoms resisting together, they found it difficult to withstand the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom's army.
This caused quite a stir in the dozens of surrounding states.
However, this was not a War between Immortal Forces, so its influence was limited and did not shake the entire Immortal Domain.
When Bai Yu'er received this news, her eyes also trembled.
The uneasiness in her heart grew even stronger.
…
Jinzhou, White Tiger Ancient Kingdom, inside the Imperial Palace.
The White Tiger Kingdom Lord and the Black Tortoise Kingdom Lord, at this moment, had slightly pale faces and stood with their hands down, clearly having just experienced a War and suffered serious injuries.
They were both Saint Realm cultivators, but at this moment, they were all injured, and their pupils still held shock.
In front of them, the Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord stood calmly.
His cultivation was also at the Saint Realm, not much higher than the two Kingdom Lords.
But behind him, there were four figures shrouded in black robes.
The previous War was precisely because of the presence of these four people, along with the Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord, that caused them to suffer heavy losses, leading to the defeat of the two countries' armies.
"Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord, where did you invite these helpers from?" The White Tiger Kingdom Lord faintly carried a hint of unwillingness.
If it weren't for these four figures, he alone could have contended with the Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord.
"Hehe, why ask so much? You just need to know that I am also working for Young Master," the Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord said with a faint smile.
"What?"
Upon hearing this, both Kingdom Lords showed surprise.
A dignified Kingdom Lord, working for someone else?
And judging by his address, it was a young Young Master?
The two Kingdom Lords exchanged glances, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.
"No need to doubt, these four are also that Young Master's people," the Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord said calmly.
At this, the White Tiger Kingdom Lord and the Black Tortoise Kingdom Lord's eyes showed even greater horror.
These four Saint experts were all that Young Master's people?
Who exactly was that Young Master?
And how terrifying must his background be?
"Now, you only need to agree to two conditions."
"First, hand over a quarter of your respective compasses."
"Second, the entire kingdom submits to Young Master."
"Agree to these two conditions, and you may live!"
"Do not agree, and you die!"
The Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord's tone was cold and direct.
Upon hearing this, the two Kingdom Lords' faces showed a hint of humiliation.
That compass was a Legacy item. Although its purpose was unknown, it was a symbol of a kingdom.
The Four Great Ancient Kingdoms each possessed a quarter of the compass.
And the entire kingdom submitting to that Young Master was also not a glorious matter.
Just as the two Kingdom Lords were about to argue, the four black figures suddenly took a step forward.
That oppressive Qi made the words of the two Kingdom Lords choke in their throats, unable to be spoken.
After a long while, the two Kingdom Lords nodded dejectedly, agreeing to the conditions.
Seeing this, the Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord nodded in satisfaction.
Afterward, after some arrangements, the two kingdoms also submitted in unison.
The Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord, however, went to the back of the Imperial Palace, to a luxurious hall.
Inside the hall, many graceful dancers were dancing.
At the very top was a large bed, with gauze curtains hanging down, vaguely revealing a figure leaning against several slender figures.
The Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord spread his palm, on which lay two ancient and mottled Azure Dragon compass components.
"Young Master, you have what you wanted," the Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord said with a hint of respect.
From within the gauze curtain, a powerful arm reached out, and with a five-fingered grab, it seized the two Azure Dragon compass components.
"Very good, Azure Dragon Kingdom Lord, you did not disappoint this Marquis!"
