Chapter 459: A Unity Already Divided
"This makes me very uncomfortable..."
The dragon man in the chief position said, "You should all remember that 'Saint Yao Emperor' from back then."
Upon hearing this, all the half-step Immortal Venerables nodded in agreement. Back then, when the Holy Yao Emperor broke free from their control, the final result was not good either.
"Of course I remember."
But there is one exception.
The woman in the red dress looked rather unpleasant at this moment.
"It was you who went against my will and poisoned her back then."
The other twelve half-step immortals all turned to look at her—her name was Yunshang, the patriarch of the Yun clan of the Void Immortal Realm.
The Yun Clan is a top-tier family within the "Immortal Realm," holding a position on par with the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan, the Dragon Palace, and the Qilin Royal Family. However, despite this, the thirteen Immortal Venerables are not a united front, especially given the less-than-ideal relationship between humans and other alien races.
After all, the Little Mystic Realm is not some idyllic paradise; everyone here simply shares a common ruler.
"Fairy Yunshang, what's past is past, let's not bring it up again."
A man with white hair and beard, yet still robust in stature and possessing an exceptionally deep aura, glanced indifferently at Yunshang.
“If the Holy Yao Emperor does not die, he will pose a great threat and must be dealt with. Otherwise, the ‘Immortal Realm’ will be exposed to the Xuan Tian Realm sooner or later, and the time is not yet ripe for us to reappear in the world.”
"Dragon Clan Man—Lord of the Dragon Palace," Gu Yun said.
"She is of the bloodline of a descendant of the Immortal Clan. Accepting her into the Void Immortal World is clearly the best solution, but you insist on stifling such a genius who is one in a million!"
When this matter was brought up, Yunshang became furious and questioned him coldly.
These words immediately quieted the previously noisy scene.
Gu Yun's expression was particularly unpleasant. After being refuted by Yun Shang, especially after bringing up such an old story, it was not easy for him to save face.
Emperor Shengyao, Qin Yiyao.
This was indeed a person whose talent astonished even the thirteen immortal venerables.
Not to mention, the Great Qin Dynasty she created has supreme imperial power over half of the Xuan Tian Realm, which even reminds people of her ancestor, Emperor Tai Ming!
If we disregard the difference in cultivation level, Qin Yiyao's achievements could indeed surpass those of her ancestors. It's just a pity.
If she hadn't been determined to pursue the ascension path monopolized by the "Virtual Immortal World," and hadn't almost succeeded...
The illusory immortal world had no intention of planting any "immortal-killing poison" in her to kill the Holy Yao Emperor, who could have displayed her talents for many years...
Qin Yiyao was already at the ninth level of the Supreme Saint realm, and the next step would have been the tenth level. Her dynasty had also reached its absolute peak and prosperity at that time, and she began to think about the "Immortal Rank".
She wanted to break through and was unwilling to remain at the very peak of the mortal realm, the "Tenth Level of Sainthood." If she could become an immortal, why should she be satisfied with being a mortal?
If anyone else wanted to break through to the Immortal Rank, the entire Void Immortal Realm would only laugh at it.
But if the Holy Yao Emperor says he wants to break through to the Immortal Rank... this cannot be ignored.
Because she possessed far too many resources! The Holy Yao Emperor sat in the deep palace, and with a single command, her high-ranking officials, generals, and armies were all mobilized to search the world for ancient books, treasures, broken formations, and discarded pills... anything that could potentially help her break through to the mortal realm, she wanted it all!
No one could stop her from getting what she wanted.
After all, the Qin Dynasty's army could sweep across the entire world, and its prosperity and fortune were so great that it was awe-inspiring. Who could stop her from using the power of the entire world to help her break through to immortality?
Although the immortal path of the Xuan Tian Realm had long been severed at that time, the existence of the Void Immortal Realm was uncertain.
What if, by some chance, the Holy Yao Emperor actually succeeds?!
If it works out for her...
This is a real problem.
The Void Immortal Realm had already made arrangements and plans for the upcoming situation in the Profound Heaven Realm, and absolutely could not allow any unexpected events to occur!
Their "Little Mystic Realm" will reappear in the world sooner or later. In order to achieve this, they will never allow any living being to use any other means to once again ascend to the "Stairway to Immortality"!
Therefore, Qin Yiyao must die.
But the way she was killed is worth discussing.
After all, she was already at the ninth level of the Supreme Saint realm at that time, which meant she was invincible and had no rivals below the mortal level.
However, the Void Immortal Realm cannot send immortal-level cultivators to deal with her. Once the people of the Void Immortal Realm enter the mortal world, they will inevitably leave traces, and their plans, which have been hidden for so many years without ever showing their faces, will be exposed.
Therefore, the immortals ultimately decided to poison her.
Instead of ordinary poison, we will use "the poison that kills immortals," a deadly poison that originated from the demon realm during the late primordial era, to kill the Holy Yao Emperor!
Of course, poisoning is not an easy thing to do.
Fortunately, the Holy Yao Emperor never lacked enemies, even among her most trusted and favored female officials. In the end, the poisoning succeeded.
The Holy Yao Emperor struggled desperately to save herself, but ultimately turned into a skeleton in a coffin. Her Great Qin Dynasty appeared briefly but brilliantly, but without a leader, it did not even have a second generation before it perished with her.
Yunshang was the most opposed to poisoning Qin Yiyao.
Without the help of the Void Immortal World, she was able to get to this point. Thinking about it from the perspective of switching identities, Yunshang felt ashamed of herself. Such a talented person, instead of winning her over, she wanted to kill her.
Not to mention, the Void Immortal Realm has always been searching for those remnants of the "Immortal Bloodline" to bring back to the Void Immortal Realm to strengthen its own power; this has always been its practice.
But Yunshang knew that her "opposition" alone was meaningless in the face of the other twelve "agreements".
Yunshang was very dissatisfied with this, so much so that she even wanted to draw her sword against these "alien races". However, the thirteen immortal venerables could not have internal strife. The subordinates could make trouble however they wanted, but they could never be hostile to each other!
Otherwise, given their combined cultivation levels of half-step Immortal Venerable, what would happen if they started fighting each other...?
The only possible end for this Lesser Mystic Heaven Realm is destruction!
and so.
Yunshang ultimately held back.
For the sake of the bigger picture.
Thus, the Void Immortal Realm peacefully dealt with yet another "factor" outside their plans.
But these "factors" are simply impossible to eliminate completely.
This time, the demon race unexpectedly launched a large-scale invasion of human territory, and now the Eastern Frontier is in chaos, while the Void Immortal Realm is completely unaware of this.
They were reminded of some very unpleasant memories.
"...Let bygones be bygones. In any case, the Holy Yao Emperor is already dead. Clan Chief Yun, there's no need to dwell on the past."
Seeing that the atmosphere was gradually cooling down, Gu Yun stepped in to smooth things over, saying that such old stories should be forgotten.
Qin Yiyao has been poisoned to death; this matter should be put to rest.
Constantly bringing it up is not good for unity.
Although Gu Yun wasn't really sure if Yunshang still wanted this kind of "unity".
