Chapter 3268: Invitation
“That’s not appropriate.”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying suddenly said.
“Why? Fourth Brother, do you want to snatch the credit?”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu asked with a cold expression.
“Fufu, Eighth Brother, you’ve misunderstood.”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying smiled gently and looked at the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord. He bowed and said, “There’s no need to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut. It’s just a puny Chaos Palace. There’s no need for our Serpent Wyrm Island to mobilize such a large force.”
“If word gets out, it will also damage the reputation of Serpent Wyrm Island.”
“Secondly, since Palace Lord Chaos’s two treasure swords can kill Great Heavenly Supremacies, not only will Eighth Brother be injured, his life might even be in danger if he heads over personally.”
“Eighth Brother, we’re close brothers and our lives are precious. I don’t want to see you injured.”
“Hmph!”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu naturally knew that those words were only thrown out casually.
However, he could not refute Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying’s words openly.
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu asked, “Fourth Brother, what do you mean? Are you going to let Father take action personally to snatch the treasure of a junior of the Dao Manifestation realm?”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying smiled. “I have a plan that can make Palace Lord Chaos willingly hand over the two treasure swords obediently and offer them to Father without any bloodshed!”
“Oh?”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord revealed a keen expression when he heard that.
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying continued, “We can use the name of Father’s 800 millionth birthday to invite the leaders of the surrounding factions to wish him a happy birthday.”
“Palace Lord Chaos will naturally be included.”
“There are three benefits to this plan.”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying smiled. “Firstly, if Palace Lord Chaos was a smart person and came to wish him a happy birthday after receiving the invitation, we would naturally have countless ways to get him to hand over the two treasure swords once he arrives at Serpent Wyrm Island.”
“Secondly, if he’s tactless and refuses to come, it’ll be disrespectful. Serpent Wyrm Island will have a good reason to mobilize troops then.”
“Thirdly, it’s impossible for the leaders of the other factions to come and wish Father a happy birthday empty-handed. They will definitely prepare generous gifts and even compare among themselves.”
“Among these gifts, there might be some treasures that could help Father in breaking through to the Dao Hegemony realm.”
When the experts in the hall heard that, they nodded one after another and praised his brilliant plan.
Even the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord was very satisfied. He looked at Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying with a hint of fondness.
This plan could be said to be killing three birds with one stone!
Furthermore, he was in a good mood when he heard that all the benefits revolved around him.
However, Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu’s expression was dark.
Initially, he was the one who suggested this. In the end, the credit was snatched away by Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying with a few words!
Judging from his father’s intention, it was clear that his father agreed with his fourth brother’s suggestion.
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu was indignant and could not help but sneer. “What if Palace Lord Chaos comes to offer his congratulations but refuses to hand over the treasure swords?”
“That’s not up to him.”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying shook his head gently. “At that time, the leaders of the various factions will be present. As long as we make appropriate arrangements, someone will naturally kill him without us needing to do anything.”
“Furthermore, Chaos Palace must have had conflicts with the surrounding factions after its rise over the years.”
“I can pass down the order and get the surrounding factions to keep an eye on Chaos Palace. If this person doesn’t hand over the treasure swords, the other factions will swarm forward and raze Chaos Palace to the ground!”
“Under those circumstances, he would have no choice but to hand over the treasure swords.”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord nodded to himself.
His fourth son was indeed smart in devising strategies, predicting all the possible situations.
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu gritted his teeth in hatred. However, no matter how he racked his brains, he could not think of any loopholes and could only remain silent with a dark expression.
It should have been his credit. In the end, it benefited Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying instead!
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord waved his hand. “Just do as Long Ying said and send the order to send out invitations widely!”
…
Myriad Beast Ridge.
In the past ten years, Myriad Beast Ridge had long undergone earthshaking changes.
The blood soil that was originally barren turned lush and a large forest grew between the mountain ridges.
The blood river regained its clarity and there were even fish and prawns frolicking in it. It was a scene of vitality and the revival of everything.
All of this was naturally thanks to the massive amount of Source Qi gathered when Su Zimo’s Green Lotus True Body cultivated.
As for Xu Rui and the others, they could vaguely guess that Su Zimo was not an ordinary human.
As they cultivated beside Su Zimo, they could clearly sense that the surrounding Source Qi was even richer.
Furthermore, they would feel reverence for Su Zimo from the depths of their bloodlines and souls.
This was a sign of bloodline suppression!
On this day.
A message came from outside the cave abode and Su Zimo woke up from his seclusion.
There must be something important for Xu Rui and the other two to be here.
If not for that, they would not have interrupted Su Zimo’s seclusion.
Over the years, Chaos Palace had been invaded by the surrounding factions.
However, after Su Zimo killed three Great Heavenly Supremacies one after another, the surroundings gradually calmed down.
All these years, although some cultivators had joined Chaos Palace, they still lacked Heavenly Supremacy experts.
The highest cultivation realm of the new cultivators was only at the Supremacy realm.
Under such circumstances, as long as a Great Heavenly Supremacy appeared and the Six Ding Six Jia Gods could not defend, Su Zimo would have to step in.
As such, Su Zimo’s seclusion for the past ten years was intermittent and there were no signs of a breakthrough in his cultivation realm.
Furthermore, in the past ten years, when the surrounding factions invaded, it would take some time for Su Zimo to arrive as well. By then, there would be many casualties in Chaos Palace.
“Chaos Palace’s foundation is still too weak.”
Su Zimo frowned slightly and sighed internally.
Right now, Chaos Palace did not even have a true Heavenly Supremacy expert!
If this continued, not only would everyone from Chaos Palace be worried all day, even he would find it difficult to calm down and cultivate in seclusion.
“Palace Lord.”
Right then, Xu Rui and the other two had already closed in and called out softly.
Su Zimo snapped out of his stupor and suppressed his thoughts for the time being. “What’s the matter?”
Xu Rui sent over a red invitation with both hands and said in a deep voice, “Someone from Serpent Wyrm Island just sent an invitation. He said that the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord is holding a banquet to celebrate his 800 millionth birthday. They’re inviting you over.”
“The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord’s birthday?”
Su Zimo frowned.
Over the years, he had a rough understanding of the distribution of the surrounding factions.
Serpent Wyrm Island was the strongest second-rate faction in the surroundings!
For second-rate factions such as Myriad Beast Ridge and Black Goat Ridge, as well as factions that once had conflicts with Chaos Palace such as Giant Spirit Valley, Mystic Bird Forest and Frost Snowfield… They were all respectful towards Serpent Wyrm Island.
He was not interested in the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord’s birthday at all.
To him, such a thing was just a waste of time. He might as well cultivate in seclusion and attempt to break through to the Dao Comprehension realm.
However, before long, Su Zimo gradually realized something!
Something was amiss!
If he did not attend this so-called birthday banquet, he would definitely offend Serpent Wyrm Island.
If Serpent Wyrm Island used this as an excuse to attack and send an army to suppress the borders, given his current cultivation realm, he definitely had no chance of winning against an Utmost Heavenly Supremacy without using his bloodline.
Even if he summoned the Avici and Nether Swords, he could not guarantee victory!
However, if he released his bloodline and was recognized, he would be in even more trouble!
