Saint-level War Begins, Celestials Participate

Once again, they walked out of Chen Xuan's courtyard, feeling chills down their spines.

Just now, when senior Chen's expression was displeased and he was slightly angry, a layer of shackles between Heaven and Earth seemed to be pressing down on them so much so they couldn't even lift their heads.

That feeling was too terrifying.

As such, they didn't dare to ask any more questions. They hurriedly bade farewell and walked out of the small courtyard.

After coming out, they began to communicate again to prevent any errors in each other's understanding.

"What I heard was that senior Chen requested to not let those people appear again. Am I wrong?" Holy Leader Yuanming said.

"You're not wrong. That's indeed what senior Chen requested. He also said that those people are trash and don't deserve to exist in this world. So, senior Chen wants the Medicine God Valley to disappear from this world, " Holy Leader Chiyan said according to his understanding.

"That's a Holy Land-level faction, and its base is in the Western Region. If we don't handle it well, it might cause a war between the two regions," Sect Leader Ziyang said carefully.

"So what?" Holy Leader Yuanming said unyieldingly, "Do you think the Central Region is afraid of the Western Region? Furthermore, the Medicine God Valley was the one that started this. As a Holy Land, they should abide by the peace agreement. Now that the Medicine God Valley has broken the agreement, the Western Region cannot say anything if we destroy them."

The King of Yan said, "Holy Leader Yuanming is right. Besides, haven't we already agreed to senior Chen's request? Senior Chen thinks highly of us, that's why he gave us such an important task. Not everyone is qualified to work for him."

He seemed to be referring to Patriarch Dugu between the lines.

Hearing this, Patriarch Dugu felt quite embarrassed.

However, he couldn't say anything. After all, it was an indisputable fact that senior Chen didn't leave this matter to him.

"It seems that my attitude towards senior Chen had been bad in the beginning. I'm afraid that's why senior Chen only gave me half of the mountain and river painting. He only gave me half to help me, and not giving me the other half was to warn me that I'm not good enough."

Patriarch Dugu was a little regretful.

After reaching the Dao Entry realm and becoming a celestial, he had indeed become quite arrogant and missed some opportunities.

In the future, he had to be humbler.

"Zhuyuan, what's your opinion?" Holy Leader Yuanming looked at Xia Zhuyuan.

The other big shots also looked at her at the same time.

Even though Xia Zhuyuan was the weakest among them, she was the one who had the closest relationship with Chen Xuan. Furthermore, it was all thanks to her that they were able to get to know Chen Xuan.

Therefore, Xia Zhuyuan still had the right to speak.

"I think that the first time senior Chen made a move against the Medicine God Valley, he had already made his stand clear," Xia Zhuyuan said, "You see, senior Chen's power is beyond imagination. If he wanted to kill the two War Gods of the Medicine God Valley, he could do it with a snap of his fingers. But he let Yu Rong go. Why?"

Xia Zhuyuan looked at the crowd.

No one said anything. Xia Zhuyuan continued, "He was obviously giving the Medicine God Valley a chance, yet they did not repent. Instead, they came to provoke senior Chen again. This is why the magnanimous senior Chen wants to kill them."

"The reason why he gave this task to us... I think senior Chen might have other plans!"

Xia Zhuyuan's words shocked everyone.

"Other plans?"

The group of people was surprised.

"Yes. It's easy for senior Chen to destroy the Medicine God Valley, "Xia Zhuyuan said with certainty, "But he must have his reasons for not doing it himself. It's just like the previous Central Region's Dao discussion conference. Everything had been within his calculations as well."

"Hmm, that sounds very reasonable." Holy Leader Yuanming nodded.

"Why would an expert like senior Chen care about the survival and destruction of a faction? His arrangements must be related to the general trend and situation of the world."

"I'm guessing that senior Chen is probably using this incident to test our abilities."

They made a bold guess.

At this moment, a powerful wind swept across the western horizon, and the outline of a large warship appeared.

"The Medicine God Valley is here!"

Holy Leader Yuanming, Holy Leader Chiyan, Sect Leader Ziyang, the King of Yan, Holy Monk Sanzang, and Patriarch Dugu all looked toward the western sky.

"Let's go. Since senior Chen has entrusted this task to us, we must do it well. We can't let those rascals of the Medicine God Valley disturb the senior's peace."

With that, they soared.

Among them, the Holy Leader Yuanming, Holy Leader Chiyan, Sect Leader Ziyang, and Patriarch Dugu were all mortal celestials who had entered the Dao Entry realm. The King of Yan and the Holy Monk Sanzang were also quasi-celestials who were half a step into the Dao Entry realm.

Behind these people was the Empress of the Wu Dynasty Xia Zhuyuan, the Astronomy Holy Envoy Zhang Mu, Elder Mingxin from the Yuanming Holy Land, Young Master Chi from the Chiyan Holy Land, the sect leader to be of the Ziyang Sect, and the eldest disciple of the Holy Monk Sanzang. All of them were at the peak of the tier 9 Martial God realm.

The group flew into the sky.

They represented more than half of the Central Region's combat power!

Boom!

On the other side, the elite team of the Medicine God Valley had arrived.

There were three celestials and nine War Gods on the warship. Almost all of the most powerful cultivators in the Medicine God Valley were here.

"Holy Leader, it's merely the small Wu Dynasty's Guizu Mountain. If the other forces in the Central Region don't interfere, you don't need to do anything. We can handle it," A Holy Land elder said.

"First elder, you're right. However, the reason why I've mobilized so many forces is to show the various factions in the Central Region my determination so that they won't dare to participate in the war," Yan Wuyi said.

The reason why he had invited those top combat forces who had been in seclusion for a long time to launch a saint-level war was that he wanted to let the outside world see how strong his determination and faith were to take down Guizu Mountain.

He wanted to make it so that the spectators didn't dare to join the battle.

After all, once they did, they would have to fight the Medicine God Valley to death.

If it weren't so serious, some of the Central Region's factions would definitely step forward as a show of solidarity. However, if it was a situation where they had to fight to the death, few factions would dare to show their faces, even if it were those Holy Land-level factions.

That was what Yan Wuyi thought.

"The holy leader is wise."

The first elder nodded slightly after hearing Yan Wuyi's words.

At this moment, the warship at the front suddenly stopped, and someone came to report, "Holy leader, someone is blocking the warship's path."

"Who is it? How dare they block the way of the Medicine God Valley?"

"Reporting to the holy leader, it's Holy Leader Yuanming, Holy Leader Chiyan, Sect Leader Ziyang, the King of Yan, and the others!"

"It's them?"

Yan Wuyi was stunned.

He then stepped forward, causing ripples to appear in the air. He covered a thousand meters with a single step and teleported to the front of the warship.

As expected, he saw a few figures standing on the clouds at the very front.

Yan Wuyi locked his eyes on Xia Zhuyuan, "I didn't expect that the Empress of the Wu Dynasty could invite such a group of big shots to help her. I wonder what prices you paid and how many you slept with."

"Yan Wuyi, don't be rude. This is the Central Region. How can you be so presumptuous?"

Holy Leader Yuanming and the others released their celestial power.

In an instant, the Great Dao swept over. The color of the skies changed, and thunder rumbled.

Yan Wuyi was stunned for a moment before saying, "It was just a joke, and you guys took it seriously? Since all of you are here, it saves me the trouble of telling you one by one. One of the Medicine God Valley's War Gods has died and another was injured in the Wu Dynasty's Guizu Mountain. This is a matter of dignity for the Medicine God Valley, so I hope you will not get involved. Otherwise, I will fight you to the death even if I have to give my all."

Yan Wuyi made his position and attitude clear.

This was an official declaration of war against the Wu Dynasty. At the same time, it was also an attempt to make the Holy Leader Yuanming and the others retreat.

"Give it your all? Yan Wuyi, you probably don't know what kind of terrifying person you've offended."

"The Medicine God Valley's Holy Maiden is now that senior's disciple, " Holy Leader Yuanming sneered, "You shouldn't have caused her any more trouble. Furthermore, of the two War Gods you sent, the fact that one of them was able to return alive is already an exceptional gift from that senior. But you still don't know regret. You even sent an army to attack. Are you aware that you've been sentenced to death by that senior? We've come here today to punish you!"
