Chapter 1548: Chapter 1547

“What?!” Even the unmatched existences were moved. At their cultivation realms, as supreme beings, they wouldn’t show any change in expressions even if an immortal mountain collapsed, but now, they were shocked.

It was because Jin Taijun’s news were too shocking. It could change the present situation?

Who didn’t know that Imperial Pass was in imminent danger? If the Undying Kings revived, they would definitely come over, it was just a matter of how long. When they came knocking on their door, who could stop them?

Now, Jin Taijun actually said that the situation could be reversed. This made the expressions of everyone on the city wall change greatly, their breathing hurried, extremely nervous and hopeful.

“Please tell us!” An unmatched being spoke up, extremely serious. If someone had the ability to stop the disastrous future, change the situation, then paying a certain price could definitely be accepted.

“As long as we can persevere for a few hundred to five thousand years, then the Nine Heavens Ten Earths’ danger can be neutralized. Right now, all we need is time!” Jin Taijun said.

“How will it be neutralized, how will you do it?” The unmatched beings asked further.

It was because this would affect too much. If they could change the situation, everyone could live, Imperial Pass would no longer be wiped out. This was something many people wanted to see.

“There are powerful individuals who will resist the foreign side!” Jin Taijun said.

“Who... are they? Where are they? Are there still these types of people left?” Someone asked. This was a great cultivator, hair and beard all white. Right now, even his voice was starting to shake.

“Are they the existences from restricted regions? Are they going to come out? Someone immediately thought of the Nine Heavens’ restricted regions.

Jin Taijun shook her head. A faint smile appeared on the corners of her lips. “Have you all forgotten? There was previously a group of creatures who forced back the foreign great army, making them withdraw from the Nine Heavens Ten Earths!”

“It’s... them!” Many people understood, and then they were incredibly shocked.

It was because even after all these years, they were still searching, hoping to find those mysterious creatures, invite them to protect Desolate Border and Imperial Pass.

Unfortunately, after endless years passed, they were all defeated. There was no sign of those creatures, no traces of them to be found.

Some suspected that they were not in this realm, but rather elsewhere!

“How did you find them?” An unmatched being asked.

Right now, even Cao Yusheng, Shi Yi, Great Xu Tuo, and some others strained their ears, listening carefully. It was because this really affected too much, influences too profound.

This was especially the case for Dugu Yun, listening even more carefully. He was the protectors’ descendant, his clan suspected to be a member of that group of creatures.

“They had previously appeared in this world, so they naturally left behind some traces. I sent out many elites from the clan, after endless years of searching, there were some results.” Jin Taijun said.

“Did you invite them to Imperial Pass?” The unmatched being asked.

“That is impossible, moreover, in the recent hundred years to thousand years, they could not come out, which is why I need time.” Jin Taijun said calmly. Then, she gave Shi Hao a look.

“Why?” Someone asked in confusion.

The situation was dire. Wasn’t this the best time for those creatures to attack? If they were a bit later, perhaps the Nine Heavens would already have been massacred.

“It is because the place they reside in does not belong to this realm!” Jin Taijun revealed a earth-shattering piece of information.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

That place was just too far, the road too difficult to cross.

Everyone was stunned. Just how far away was it, needing a few hundred years to thousands of years? This was a bit hard to understand.

“Then what kind of people have you found exactly? There’s no way the disciples you sent out entered that place, right?” The original owner of the Five Spirits War Chariot, Qi Hong’s master asked.

He was an unmatched being, so he naturally knew about the appearance of those mysterious creatures. They forced back the foreign great army, having them withdraw from the Nine Heavens Ten Earths.

He had been investigating this entire time, even roughly understanding some of the situation, but just didn’t know how far their place of residence was, just how to get there.

Now that he heard Jin Taijun had important clues, he naturally paid great attention to this.

“I found a descendant of those creatures, understood some secrets from his mouth, able to contact that side. This is why I am able to speak the words I did just now.” Jin Taijun said.

Then, her lips moved, secretly telling Immortal Wang and the other unmatched beings, revealing some secrets.

The others were all shocked. Did she really find them? Could it be that the Nine Heavens Ten Earths had hope?

A few people were moved, carrying hopeful expressions in their joy, urgently wishing to know the result. However, there were some secrets that would naturally be kept from them, could only be exchanged between supreme beings.

Under Imperial Pass, a group of people released shouts. They weren’t aware of the changes happening on the city walls, still putting on a powerful appearance.

“The final choice, will you hand them over or not?”

“This old one has already said that the wooden chest cannot be handed over.” Jin Taijun spoke. It was because this chest definitely held great secrets, or else the other side wouldn’t desire it so greatly.

If she handed it over, then these people in Imperial Pass wouldn’t agree to it, suspecting her intentions.

“Then this means Huang can be given to us?”

The foreign side were aggressive, those clans all grew up while bathed in blood and flames, their way of doing things extremely valiant and crude. Right now, this was precisely the case, directly asking out, no sense of tactfulness at all.

This made the expressions of everyone on the city walls immediately change, because being this direct really was a bit humiliating.

“We have always been direct, saying what we want to say. Since the wooden chest can’t be handed out, then it’s easy to see that Huang can be handed to us, right?” Someone said, roaring with laughter.

“Unbridled!” On the city wall, a group of great cultivators shouted. They always opposed the foreign side, always unyielding.

Now, the foreign side’s cultivators were so rampant, clearly forcing them, mocking them in front of everyone, asking them to hand over Huang. This was a tremendous humiliation.

“You all are not allowed to speak randomly.” Jin Taijun suddenly spoke up, not to the foreign creatures, but rather reminding those great cultivators.

This left everyone shocked and dissatisfied. Acting like this, was she really going to hand over Huang? Even though they knew that she had contacted mysterious reinforcements, handing Huang over like this was hard for everyone to accept.

“Senior, your intention is...” Someone questioned, asking like this.

“We need time right now. As long as we make it through this period, powerful reinforcements will come. At that time, there will be nothing left to fear, the order of this world fixed, a new chapter written!” Jin Taijun said with a sunken voice.

“This is extremely difficult for us to accept. Handing over our own men, I cannot accept this!” A great knight on a Heaven Devouring Beast said angrily, floating in midair, not standing on the city wall.

“The same for us!” A few old cultivators who bathed in blood and flames said, all of them unable to accept this.

“The impatience of the small will affect the bigger situation. Everything I am doing is for the peace of the Nine Heavens Ten Earths. Now, there is a small sacrifice to be made, it is unavoidable.” Jin Taijun said coldly.

Everyone looked towards Huang, most of them carrying expressions of sympathy, at the same time feeling furious. This was too humiliating, all of them finding it hard to accept.

“Dao friend, this... is not too good. The consequences are too terrifying.” An unmatched being said, reminding like this.

If they really handed over Shi Hao, it would be too hard to justify. He had just returned, establishing such great contributions, his glorious achievements shocking Imperial Pass. If they treated him like this, it would make people’s hearts go cold.

Even the unmatched beings opposed, speaking out like this, so the others who wanted to protect Shi Hao naturally spoke up one after another, asking for them to change their opinions.

Moreover, in their eyes, the foreign creatures wanted the wooden chest. If they didn’t hand it over, handing over Huang wouldn’t bring much effects.

However, who would have expected that someone below Imperial Pass would speak out, actually completely different from what they imagined.

“We have thought about this. If you hand over the sacrifice, hand over Huang, we can grant you all a period of peace.”

Huang was this important? Just how much did the foreign creatures hate him, for them to treat him with the same importance as the rotten wooden chest?

A few people felt that something was strange. The other side was letting their emotions affect their decision too much, right?

“How many years of peace can there be between the two sides?” An old woman beside Jin Taijun asked.

“Ten years. It is just a Huang, what does he count as? We only wish to bring him back and make mincemeat out of him, offer him as a sacrifice to the dead.” Someone replied.

“Too few!” The old woman next to Jin Taijun said. Then, she reached out a palm, saying, “Five hundred years!”

“Haha...” Below, the group of people roared with laughter, some of them revealing expressions of contempt. “Just a youngster, after handing him over, do you all think you can exchange for five hundred years of peace?

Below, the dark black great army stretched as far as the eye could see. Many creatures remained serious, not saying anything. Only those who had great statuses were laughing.

Meanwhile, this also proved the strictness of status in the other side, as well as the terrifying nature of the army ranks. There were people everywhere, yet there was no clamoring.

On the city wall, when the creatures heard the rejection of these creatures, feeling joy for Shi Hao, they also felt a powerful feeling of humiliation. The foreign side’s people were just too unrestrained.

Of course, there were some who were full of regret. Could they not exchange for a satisfactory deadline with Huang?

“We can add a few years.”

Suddenly, in front of Imperial Pass, inside the black ancient war chariot, that Emperor Clan supreme being’s voice sounded, actually saying like this.

“Five hundred years.” Jin Taijun said.

“What is your intention? Are you dead set on handing Shi Hao out? You old hag, why don’t you hand over yourself and your own descendant Jin Zhan? Too shameless!” The Lunar Jade Rabbit suddenly erupted, speaking out like this.

“Senior, doing things like this really is not good.” Qing Yi also spoke.

“Are you even a supreme being?” Cao Yusheng also hollered.

It was because they foresaw that this exchange really might go through. The other side seemed to care a lot about Shi Hao, actually not hesitating to make such a great fuss over him.

There was something behind this! That was why Cao Yusheng’s expression changed again and again. He thought back to those words his master said, possibly explaining something.

“You all dare treat me with such disrespect.” Jin Taijun was extremely calm, and also extremely cold. She looked forward, her eyes erupting with divine radiance.

Right at this moment, an unmatched being stepped up, stopping Jin Taijun, counteracting her powerful aura. Otherwise, Qing Yi, Heavenly Horned Ant, and others wouldn’t be able to hold on at all.

Jin Taijun didn’t continue to press the issue, instead calmly speaking up, explaining, “If it were my descendants, for example, Jin Zhan, if handing him over could ensure Imperial Pass a period of peace, forget about five hundred years, even if it is just ten years, I won’t hesitate to have him meet his death!”

“Jin Taijun is wise!”

“Jin Taijun is selfless, thinking only for Imperial Pass, worthy of admiration!”

...

A few people spoke up, all of them praising her.

This was unavoidable, because there were too many people in Imperial Pass, the relationship between the clans complicated. There were naturally some who wished to exchange for peace, not wishing to fight anymore. There were some who completely followed Jin Family, so they had to stand out in support.

“Jin Zhan, come here. If the foreign side asks me to hand you over, but ensure the safety of this city, what kind of choice would you make?!” Jin Taijun asked like this.

“I will go on my own, head to the other side. Exchanging for several decades of peace in Imperial Pass is enough!” Jin Zhan stated.

A few people began to discuss amongst themselves, revealing strange expressions.

It was unavoidable that many would look towards Shi Hao.

“My ass! Can a Jin Zhan compare to Shi Hao? Not even a hundred Jin Zhans can match him. Can you even discuss the two on the same level?!” Cao Yusheng flipped out.

These words not only made Jin Zhan feel humiliation, even some well-known figures of Jin Family were shocked and alarmed, even more so making Jin Taijun’s face fall.

“You spoke well!” The Heavenly Horned Ant shouted.

Hong!

Jin Taijun’s eyes swirled with radiance, as if great stars were moving in the air, carrying incomparable powerful might, about to crush Cao Yusheng’s body as punishment.

This time, that unmatched being took action again. He looked at Jin Taijun, saying, “He is that dotard disciple.” The unmatched being pointed at Cao Yusheng.

The word dotard clearly had some intimidation. In the end, Jin Taijun didn’t deal the vicious blow, only giving him a cold look.

Shi Hao didn’t say anything from start to finish, just standing on the city wall, gazing into the horizon alone, looking at the endless black army. His figure looked a bit lonesome.

Suddenly, below Imperial Pass, a voice sounded from the black war chariot again. The Emperor Clan supreme being spoke up again.

“Five hundred years, I agree.”

These simple words left everyone on the city wall shocked. He actually agreed? This was just a youngster, yet it was worth the foreign side making a blood vow?”

“My agreement is purely out of admiration for this youngster. He is just one person, yet he killed countless people from my side, among them over a hundred great cultivators, just how impressive of an accomplishment is this? Even though he is an enemy, he is still worthy of my praise.”

The Emperor Clan supreme being spoke up, not fast nor slow, but his voice was like thunder, so loud the expressions of many people on the city wall changed.

“Youngster, come to our side, we might not necessarily kill you. If even my clan’s Undying King is in such admiration of you, then anything is possible.” Inside that black war chariot, that Emperor Clan supreme being said with a voice that wasn’t too fast or too slow.

“How could this be possible?” There were some on the city walls who couldn’t help but ask.

“He is so young, yet already has such battle accomplishments, in this great era, it can be considered world shocking. If the Undying King admires his skills, permits him to establish a clan alone, why is that not allowed? One person establishing a King Clan, even greater than a King Clan, this is all possible!” The foreign supreme being said like this.

Everyone was shaken. Was what he said true, or was he purposely inciting harmony between everyone’s hearts?

Everyone immediately looked towards Shi Hao, waiting for him to express his opinion. What kind of decision was he going to make?
