Lord of All Realms

Chapter 1180: Ripping Pretended Friendly Masks



Disdain filled Master Blood Spirit’s face as he said, “Luo Wanxiang? If Grand Elder Mo Heng hadn’t suddenly disappeared, I doubt that he would have dared to openly confine us like this.”

“Mo Heng!” Both Li Langfeng and Li Jing felt a wave of respect as they heard Mo Heng’s name.

After his recent duel in the Shatter Battlefield, Mo Heng, who had only entered the middle God domain not long ago, had joined Qu Yi from the Void Spirit Society and Chu Yuan from the Heaven Span Pavilion, and become one of the greatest figures among humanity.

Even though his cultivation base was still lower than that of the other peak experts, he would definitely be among the handful of the most prominent human experts when he entered the late God domain.

For this reason, his prestige within the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace had already risen above Luo Wanxiang and Chu Rui’s.

He was the grand elder, while those two were vice sectmasters. Technically speaking, his status was lower than theirs.

However, in the eyes of the others, his status was second only to Ji Cang’s now.

Li Jing sighed softly. “It’s too bad that like the sectmaster, Mo Heng has also disappeared.” 

...

Floating by a glowing spatial rift, Nie Tian gazed off into the distant starry river, his face grim. “That’s the place.”

Beside him, Pei Qiqi kept the spatial rift open as one figure after another flew out of it.

Among them were Xie Qian from the Water Moon Sect, who was at the late Saint domain, Jing Feiyang, Quan Zixuan, and Qu Mingde, who were at the middle Saint domain, and Dong Qisong and Zhongli Jian, who were at the early Saint domain.

Six Saint domain experts!

Nie Tian pointed into the distance and said, “Shatter that ward.” 

Upon hearing this, Xie Qian nodded slightly and unleashed his late Saint domain power.

A shield could be seen enveloping the vast meteor where the Blood Sect was currently located. The shield seemed to be a strong obstacle that was preventing those from the Blood Sect from leaving.

At this moment, as Xie Qian cast a secret magic, nine sparkling rivers shot out of him. As they soared through the dark void, they rapidly interwove into a wondrous formation.

That was when a strong cleansing aura that could wash off any impurity in heaven and earth was released.

As the river formation suddenly exploded, countless sparkling droplets that looked like tiny silver pearls were sent flying in all directions.

Infiltrated by the droplets, the faint yellow ward immediately lost its effect, like dirt that was washed off by a large amount of water.

The Saint domain expert who was well-versed in earth power and had warned Master Blood Spirit from leaving earlier burst into a flaming rage. “Who is it?!”

“Me! Nie Tian!” An explosive, domineering voice came from behind a secluded meteor in the distant starry river.

In the next moment, Nie Tian and the others flew over.

The Saint domain watchers Luo Wanxiang had planted to prevent Master Blood Spirit and Li Langfeng from escaping gasped.

“Nie Tian!”

“He’s here!”

“The seventh Son of the Stars!”

In contrast, Yu Tong, Lin He, and the other juniors from the Blood Sect that knew Nie Tian grew deeply excited. “It’s Nie Tian!”

The same went for Li Jing. A hint of elation appeared in her eyes as she said, “You have such keen senses, Patriarch. He actually is here!”

With a complicated look on his face, Master Blood Spirit nodded slightly and said, “Yeah.”

What Li Jing didn’t know was that in order to gain Nie Tian’s Blood Essence and expand his lifespan, he had allowed the Spirit Pearl to leave a restrictive spell in his true soul.

This was why he had been able to sense Nie Tian’s arrival so shrewdly.

However, now that it had been done, Master Blood Spirit didn’t regret doing it.

The same went for Xie Qian, who had willingly answered Nie Tian’s summons and rushed over from the Domain of Vast Darkness.

Even though Xie Qian had openly declared his allegiance to Nie Tian, he had previously come to an agreement with him, agreeing that the Water Moon Sect would remain an independent force that was only his ally, nothing more.

However, as Nie Tian had gradually built up his strength, defeated Ophelia, and showed his extraordinary talents in the Shatter Battlefield, he had gradually become the best candidate for the next Lord of the Stars in people’s eyes. Because of this, Xie Qian’s attitude towards him had also gradually changed.

He had started to accept himself as Nie Tian’s subordinate.

This was why he had rushed to his aid without the slightest hesitation when he had been called upon.

BOOOOM!

Immense flesh power burst forth from within Master Blood Spirit.

Countless strings of blood-colored light that were as fine as hairs enveloped the three berthed starships.

Only seconds later, an incredibly huge scarlet net trapped the starships like a spiderweb trapping three insects.

All of Luo Wanxiang’s subordinates on the starships felt congested as they tried to circulated their qi and blood, as if they had been infused with lead. They even started to lose their mobility.

The late Saint domain Qi warrior named Guan Cong, who was well-versed in earth power, raved, “Nie Tian!”

Nie Tian grinned disdainfully. “Who you you think you are to yell at me? You’re nothing but the vice sectmaster’s subordinates. You’re not even members of our sect.”

Guan Cong pointed at Master Blood Spirit and Li Langfeng and said with a righteous expression, “Vice Sectmaster Luo charged me to watch the remaining evil of the Blood Spirit Sect, and that man who clearly practices the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s evil incantations!”  

Nie Tian let out a cold harrumph. “So what?” 

SHEW! SHEW! SHEW!

Master Blood Spirit, Li Langfeng, and Li Jing finally broke the confinement and flew over from the vast meteor.

Stopping in front of Guan Cong, Master Blood Spirit provoked him with a fierce look in his eyes. “Now, I’ve broken the rules you set. What are you going to do?” 

Guan Cong’s expression flickered.

If it had only been Master Blood Spirit, he would have had the confidence to defeat him with the help of the other Saint domain experts with him.

Not to mention that even if he failed to defeat him, he would have been able to kill disciples of the Blood Sect in order to force him to halt his actions.

However, this balance had been broken by the sudden arrival of Nie Tian, Xie Qian, and the other Saint domain experts.

The truth was that Xie Qian, Jing Feiyang, and the others had long since heard of the trouble Master Blood Spirit and Li Langfeng were in.

However, since Nie Tian hadn’t returned and made his stance on the matter clear, they hadn’t dared to make any rash moves.

After all, it was vice sectmaster Luo Wanxiang who was behind this.

Only since Nie Tian had shown up and given them confidence and support, did they dare to confront Luo Wanxiang’s forces head-on.

Nie Tian pointed at Guan Cong and the others that gradually came from belowdecks and said, “You’ll stay here for now.

“I’ll let you go after Vice Sectmaster Luo gets here and answers my questions. I distinctly remember that he still owes me quite a few things. It’s about time that was settled.”

Guan Cong was flabbergasted. “You! You dare to threaten the vice sectmaster!” 

“No, not threaten. Simply demand something that’s rightfully mine.” Nie Tian said plainly.

“You took in people like Master Blood Spirit and those who practice the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s evil incantations as your subordinates,” Guan Cong denounced Nie Tian indignantly. “Not only do you refuse to admit to your wrongdoing, but you even dare to challenge the vice sectmaster’s authority like this! Don’t imagine that you can do anything you want now after your victory against Ophelia. You still have to listen to the vice sectmaster before you actually become the Lord of the Stars!”

Nie Tian didn’t seemed to be swayed by his words at all. “That’s between me and him. You’re in no place to tell me what to do.”  

Then, he turned to Xie Qian and the others, and said, “Seal off this area. Don’t let any of them leave. I’m sure it won’t be long before Vice Sectmaster Luo comes here himself. I wonder if he’ll admit that he owes me those things.”
