Against the Gods

? Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, seventh floor.

"Master, the one who just flew away from Phoenix City was indeed Feng Shenzhou. After many investigations, it has been confirmed that there are only three people on the Feng Shenzhou... Yun Che, Feng Hengkong, and Princess Xue Feng Xue'er. The direction of Blue Wind Nation. If you are going to Blue Wind, then you will be able to reach the Blue Wind Imperial City before dusk tomorrow.”

"...Can you find out what happened?" Zi Ji said with a frown.

"Feng Tianwei is on the side, we did not dare to approach. But we will know before tomorrow."

Zi Ji pondered for a long time and said slowly: "It's really twists and turns."

It can be said that every step of the development of this matter completely deviates from his expectations. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to him, who has always been aware of the overall situation.

"Master, this subordinate still has something to report. The eleven people who infiltrated the Illusory Demon Realm a hundred years ago, after the previous eight people, the last three soul imprints have all disappeared... Just a quarter of an hour ago. It is very likely that it was The identity was exposed, and then the soul was searched, and finally all were removed."

"..." Zi Ji was silent.

"Master, you don't need to worry too much about this matter. A hundred years ago, those of us who entered the Demon Emperor Realm only brought seven sound transmission stones. The news that came a year ago happened to be the seventh time, which means that seven All the sound transmission stones have been used up. Even if they all survive, they will not be able to send back news. Although they are dead, they have completed their mission completely."

The "sound transmission stone" he was talking about was definitely not an ordinary sound transmission stone, but a special sound transmission stone that could transmit sound from the Illusory Demon Realm back to the Profound Sky Continent across millions of miles. Throughout the entire Profound Sky Continent, this kind of special sound transmission stone can only be possessed by the Four Great Sacred Grounds with incomparably profound backgrounds, and the number is extremely rare.

"...I have been safe and sound before, but they have been removed one after another recently. It seems that a major incident has happened in the Illusory Demon Realm." Zi Ji said slowly, "However, what I care more about is not their exposure and life and death, but their That news last came back a year ago."

"a year ago?"

"That news briefly described the current situation of the twelve guardian families of the Demon Imperial City. When referring to the Yun family, it was mentioned that the maimed Yun Qinghong had adopted a adopted son named 'Yun Che'..."

After Zi Ji's words, he paused here, and the man in blue beside him frowned and asked in doubt, "Could it be that the master thinks he has any connection with Yun Che? It should be just the same name, after all..."

"At the time, I didn't take it to heart at all, but..."

Zi Ji did not continue to speak, and in the Profound Shadow Stone, the wings that opened under the darkness of dawn... and the cyan storm that rolled under the wings.

And... Yun Che who came back alive.

"Master, do you mean..."

Zi Ji shook his head slightly, but didn't make a decision, but his tone changed, and he said in a gloomy tone: "A hundred years ago, when the Demon Imperial City was invaded, it was not only us... Mighty Sword Region. I wonder if they have also used up the sound transmission stones..."

——————————————————

The Phoenix Shenzhou, the highest profound boat in the Divine Phoenix Sect, is also the iconic existence of the entire Divine Phoenix Nation. Wherever it flies, the emperor must come.

As the night fell, the Phoenix Shenzhou was already close to the border of the Divine Phoenix, and wherever it flew, the people of the Divine Phoenix were all worshipping from a distance.

There were only three people on the huge Phoenix Shenzhou. Yun Che, Feng Xue'er, and Feng Hengkong whose complexion changed in various ways.

"Royal Father said that at the speed of Feng Shenzhou, by this time tomorrow, you should be able to reach the Blue Wind Imperial City." Feng Xue'er sat beside Yun Che and was very close to him. Red, obviously excited. After all, this was the first time she had left the Divine Phoenix Country since she was born. She had been dreaming of this day since she was very young.

Seeing Feng Xue'er not shy, it can even be said that she leaned her body towards Yun Che very naturally, her eyes were full of intimacy, Feng Hengkong's face twitched, but he could only sigh silently... In Feng Shenzhou In the past few hours, he has sighed silently many times.

He believed that he had always protected Feng Xue'er to the extreme. Even her biological brothers could hardly get within three steps, let alone outsiders, even the disciples in the sect were lucky to see Feng Xue'er once in a while. .

how come...

Feng Hengkong stretched out his hand and grabbed the top of his head, and with his five fingers tightened, he wished he could pull off the full head of hair... He would rather Yun Che break the scourge of the Divine Phoenix Sect into pieces, than he would never want him to scourge Feng Xue'er.

"Did you kill Feng Chihuo?" Feng Hengkong, who was scratching his scalp, suddenly said coldly.

"Yes." Yun Che replied without even the slightest pause.

"Huh!" Feng Hengkong did not say any more, because the matter had come to this point, it was useless to say anything. Right now, he only hoped that Feng Xue'er's feelings for Yun Che would not reach the level he didn't dare to imagine.

"I also want to ask you a question." Yun Che's eyes locked on Feng Hengkong: "The real purpose of your order to invade my Blue Wind... What is it!"

Feng Hengkong's whole body froze, and he did not speak.

"Royal father, Xue'er also wants to know why." Feng Xue'er said softly, "Because I know that royal father is definitely not a cruel and ruthless person, and royal father will make the decision three years ago, it must... must be Is there any very special reason or reason. Can you... tell me and Brother Yun? Maybe after knowing the reason, Brother Yun's blaming towards the royal father... will be a little less."

Feng Hengkong's hand slowly put down, Feng Xue'er asked softly, he did not have the strength to refuse, and then thought that Yun Che clearly knew the truth that the Phoenix God had passed away... Feng Hengkong sighed slowly, and said: "Four years ago, when my Zonglingkun Hall was preparing for the imminent appearance of the Primordial Profound Ark, I accidentally discovered that there was a faint reaction of amethyst deposits in the extreme east of the Blue Wind Nation. There was a reaction from Amethyst, which has never happened in history, so a guardian of the Lingkun Temple was sent to investigate secretly, and found that in the east of a small town called Floating Cloud City, a hidden gem was discovered deep underground. The amethyst mine is huge, and the energy level is amazing... If all these amethyst mines are mined and refined, you can get a full hundred kilograms of purple veins..."

"Divine Crystal!"

"Ah!" Feng Xue'er exclaimed in surprise. A hundred kilograms of Purple Veined Crystals is a concept that can shake the sky... not to mention Purple Veined Crystals! !

One hundred catties of Purple Veined Divine Crystals, even for the Four Great Sacred Grounds, are an incomparably huge resource!

You must know that it takes at least five hundred years for a Holy Land to accumulate a hundred catties of Purple Veined Divine Crystals! If the Divine Phoenix Sect obtained all these Purple Veined Divine Crystals, it would be equivalent to possessing a Holy Land and other existences that would have accumulated resources for more than 500 years!

Such a temptation is enough to make the Divine Phoenix Sect... enough to make any forces in the Profound Sky Continent do whatever it takes to do it!

"So...that's the case!!" Yun Che raised his head, Feng Hengkong's words made him almost instantly clear all the doubts in his heart.

"Big Brother Yun, do you already know?" Yun Che's words made Feng Xue'er look at him suspiciously.

"Almost." Yun Che stood up, frowned, stared at Feng Hengkong and said, "Let your royal father speak."

Feng Hengkong closed his eyes slightly, and said directly: "Back then, after the ancestor Phoenix God passed away, we who knew about this had a strong sense of crisis. Because once this incident spread, the Divine Phoenix Sect would definitely be attacked. The suppression of the Four Sacred Grounds... may even be a disaster. Therefore, while firmly guarding the secret that the Phoenix God has passed away, we have been trying hard to find that if the secret is leaked, we can also preserve the entire sect... At least we can preserve it. Xue'er's method."

"And the discovery of this huge amethyst mine has made me and my father ecstatic. If we can really get 100 catties of purple veined divine crystals, we will definitely be able to spawn a large number of extremely powerful people in a short period of time, and thus add a layer of deeper power. Assure."

"That's... the reason? It's just to get the amethyst mine in Blue Wind Nation?" Feng Xue'er shook her head in confusion, "But, what does this have to do with the imperial father's order to occupy Blue Wind Nation... it's still so cruel. Way!?"

"Of course it's to keep Chen Cang secret and not be noticed by the people of the Four Great Sacred Grounds." Yun Che said, but there was a faint mockery in the depths of his eyes: "There are people in the Four Great Sacred Grounds who are secretly monitoring the movements of the Divine Phoenix Sect at all times. And this Amethyst The existence of the mine can only be known to a few core figures in the sect. If these core figures are naturally the focus of surveillance of the Four Holy Lands, no matter how secretive the action is, there is still a huge risk of being discovered. At that time, the amethyst mine will be discovered It will also be exposed, and once exposed, it will no longer belong to the Divine Phoenix Sect.”

"So, the purpose of your order to launch a war against Blue Wind is to cover up and divert the attention of others! And in order to maximize the effect of the cover-up, you did not hesitate to slaughter people and burn the city, showing your eagerness to win Blue Wind in the shortest time possible. , a gesture of venting your anger because I made you lose face in the Seven Nations Ranking Tournament!"

"Yes." Feng Hengkong nodded expressionlessly.

"Just for the hundred kilograms of Purple Veined Divine Crystal? Heh..." Looking at Feng Hengkong's appearance, Yun Che sneered, "Looking at your appearance, have you never felt that there is anything wrong with doing this?"

"As far as Blue Wind Nation is concerned, I should be punished by heaven. But I am the Emperor of the Divine Phoenix and the Sect Master of the Phoenix!" Feng Hengkong raised his head and looked at Yun Che, "This hundred kilograms of Purple Veined Divine Crystal, for others, , is only a huge amount of resources, but it is a life-saving straw for us who no longer have the ancestors of the Phoenix God! Today's fruit indeed makes me regret... but my decision is not wrong!"

"Naive! Do you really think that a hundred catties of Purple Veined Divine Crystal will be able to protect your Divine Phoenix Sect after the death of the Phoenix God is revealed?" Yun Che said coldly.

"...At least it will give us a little more power to protect Xue'er! As long as we can protect Xue'er for a hundred years, even if my entire sect is completely withered, there will still be endless hope!" Feng Hengkong growled in a low voice.

"Royal Father, stop talking!" Seeing that Yun Che and Feng Hengkong faced each other again, Feng Xue'er hurriedly stood between the two of them: "Royal Father, no matter what the reason is, so many innocent people have lost their lives, and yet again It was a big mistake to let so many innocent people fall into trouble. With the help of Big Brother Yun, Xue'er's phoenix soul awakened, and it can already protect our Divine Phoenix Sect, so the royal father doesn't need to worry about Xue'er anymore. Xue'er now I just hope that I can atone for the sins I committed together with the royal father, so that I can get the forgiveness of Blue Wind and Lord Phoenix God in the spirit of heaven.”

"Xue'er..." Feng Hengkong looked at his daughter, his eyes gradually hazy.

"Speaking of which, back then you asked Feng Xichen to personally go to the Blue Wind Imperial City, and the invitation to the Seven Kingdoms Ranking Tournament was just a pretense, but the real purpose was to use the identity of the Divine Phoenix Prince to provoke disputes with the help of my bloodline, thus creating a war. An excuse?" Yun Che squinted.

"Yes." Feng Hengkong did not deny it.

Yun Che continued: "After the war lasted for more than two years, and the attention of the Four Holy Lands became less and less, you all began to prepare to grab the amethyst ore. But when fetching the ore, even in extremely deep underground, it is bound to happen. It caused a huge noise. Therefore, the 200,000 troops transferred to Floating Cloud City bombarded the ground every day and pretended to use it as a training ground, which was a pretense to cover up all this."

"...You are right." Feng Hengkong gave him a deep look. He only mentioned the existence of the purple crystal mine before, but Yun Che actually understood the reasons, processes and means of everything so thoroughly... How terrifying his mind was.

"Then how far have you achieved your goals?" Yun Che asked coldly. He had never imagined that the area of ​​Floating Cloud City, where he had lived for more than ten years, actually concealed an amethyst mine that the Divine Phoenix Sect wanted to acquire at a huge cost.

The surrounding area of ​​Floating Cloud City was empty and barren, and only some of the most inferior profound beasts survived. Before that, even if someone told him that there was a huge deposit hidden there that could extract a hundred catties of Purple Veined Divine Crystal, he would not believe it.

"Ten percent."

"Ten percent!?" Feng Hengkong's words caused Yun Che to sharply frown.
