Chapter 5816 Infighting
That\'s the difference in their ambitions.
Before becoming the Universe Master at the Seventh Tribulation, or perhaps after attaining that status, Queen Yun Zhi never interfered in the affairs of the Daughter Kingdom.
It was as if being a country\'s ruler was merely a formality.
She cared little for power or prestige.
Her sole focus was on cultivation.
And it led to such remarkable achievements.
Then there\'s the Universe Master at the Seventh Tribulation from the Ancient Wood Sect.
Even in the face of significant events like the Holy Assembly, they remained unseen.
Always adventuring in foreign realms, keeping an extremely low profile.
On the other hand, their Sect Master was quite the opposite, overly conspicuous due to being stuck at the Scattered Tribulation with no room for advancement, only a pursuit of power left.
Yet, they ended up falling into Babidi\'s clutches, now turned into a puppet.
Absolutely ridiculous.
Getting stronger has no shortcuts.
Jian Wushuang had always believed this.
To become powerful, one must exert absolute effort and diligence!
Without hard work, only scheming and shortcuts, one would eventually have to pay the price.
Glancing at the bewildered Jincheng, he suddenly felt pity for him.
Despite his affluent background, he lacked true freedom.
Forced into marriage with someone he didn\'t love.
And now even being used as a pawn by his own mother.
Muchen, that big fool, even deliberately kept it from him.
That\'s what infuriated Jian Wushuang the most.
So much so that when it came time to escape, he didn\'t even bother acknowledging him.
At least a heads-up on matters concerning life and death would have been appreciated!
They fled aimlessly, devoid of direction.
They didn\'t know where to go.
Underneath this ancient river, it resembled a continent.
Numerous tribes inhabited it.
Beasts roamed freely.
The sky was barricaded by thunderstorms, and even as they delved into the river\'s depths, they encountered equally formidable beasts.
They could only suppress their breath and continue to dive deeper.
"Where are we going?" Jin Chen surveyed the breathtaking scenery of the riverbed.
The more beautiful something appeared, the more danger it often concealed.
Jian Wushuang swiftly pulled Jinchen behind him and exclaimed loudly, "Be careful!"
A red tentacle shot out from the water grass, carrying a certain toxin that, if Emperor were to come into contact with it, would instantly prove fatal.
Sharp tentacles lunged towards Jian Wushuang\'s chest, prompting him to roar angrily and lift the arm of the Candle Dragon, swatting away the tentacle\'s attack with a single hand.
Dragging Jinchen along, they didn\'t venture deeper into the riverbed but instead fled towards the chaotic pile ahead.
Now wasn\'t the time to rest; the dragon might catch up at any moment.
Other savage beasts lurked here, and engaging them would only slow them down.
As they fled, Jian Wushuang reminded Wu Li not to lag behind.
The tentacle they just encountered was definitely a beast at the Fourth Tribulation.
Wu Li couldn\'t afford to die!
As for the fate of Elder Muchen and the others, he couldn\'t concern himself with that. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Startled by the message, Wu Li increased his speed once more.
The danger of this Sacred Assembly far exceeded his expectations.
He had initially thought that with his strength, he could easily rank in the middle and survival wouldn\'t be an issue.
Yet since arriving in the Infinite Great World, whether it was encountering the Special Life Forms at the start or the strength of the Celestial Wolf Clan, he found himself outmatched.
Several times, he almost revealed his true strength.
His trump card differed from Jian Wushuang\'s. Once exposed, he feared that the outside powerhouses wouldn\'t sit idly by.
Even the people of the Ancient Wood Sect might make an exception and enter the Infinite Great World to hunt him down.
So, he couldn\'t use it unless absolutely necessary.
For now, he just needed to follow Jian Wushuang. He acknowledged Jian Wushuang\'s strength.
Apart from the Empress, Jian Wushuang was undoubtedly the strongest.
Even stronger than a Universe Master at the Fourth Tribulation.
This information was imparted to him by the mysterious figure within him.
As long as he followed Jian Wushuang, there was hope for survival.
Having chosen Jian Wushuang, he didn\'t care about anything else.
Following him was the right choice.
Upon reaching the pile of rocks, Jian Wushuang hesitated for a moment before plunging in.
The stones were massive, with narrow crevices. Inside felt more like a maze.
These stones seemed to have fallen from the mountains on both sides of the ancient river. Indeed, they could block many of the colossal beasts lurking at the riverbed.
As he stepped in, Wu Li followed closely behind. Others capable of escaping also rushed in after Jian Wushuang, like headless flies. However, there weren\'t many survivors left.
The Patriarch of the Li Family, along with the remnants of four Universe Masters, joined Jian Wushuang and the others.
Only nine remained, losing half of their manpower in an instant.
The blow was quite significant.
Once inside the pile of rocks, Jian Wushuang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In a natural stalactite cave, their figure came to a halt.
It was the interior of a massive rock.
There was no water inside, incredibly smooth all around, with water droplets continuously dripping from above.
Crash!
Jian Wushuang had just steadied his figure when the water surface inside the giant rock was consecutively broken, and several figures rushed in together.
Though he ran fast, the people behind him weren\'t slow either.
Because Jian Wushuang still had to think about escaping in that direction, those following him didn\'t need to use their brains.
Now it seemed he had indeed chosen the right person.
Running to this place, he shouldn\'t encounter that dragon anymore.
This pile of rocks wasn\'t just an ordinary pile of stones.
It looked more like countless towering mountains piled together.
Breaking through that dragon wouldn\'t be so easy.
"Brother Muchen, you need to explain what\'s going on here," the head of the Li family stared darkly at Elder Muchen. If it weren\'t for the special nature of this place, allowing outsiders to observe their every move, he would have slaughtered Elder Muchen.
Although the head of the Li family was angry, he could still control his emotions.
After all, this time, it wasn\'t their own people who died.
His clansmen had been brought out by him.
But the luck of other strong individuals wasn\'t as good.
The Jiang family!
Though they didn\'t have a Universe Master of the Fourth Tribulation, they had four Universe Masters of the Third Tribulation presiding over them.
This time in the Sacred Assembly, three of the Jiang family\'s Four Guardians came.
But just now, two of them fell in an instant.
Jiang Zhen, the second of the Jiang family, couldn\'t contain his anger, "Muchen, do you know that this time, you caused the death of my eldest brother and fourth brother? Why isn\'t it you who died!"
Jiang Zhen directly rushed forward, grabbing Elder Muchen by his collar, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Seeing this scene, Jian Wushuang sneered inwardly, having no intention of helping.
Elder Muchen deserved this.
He should have spoken earlier.
If he had spoken earlier, not so many people would have died.
Now, half of them were dead in an instant.
The remaining people could only survive in this stalactite cave.
"Jiang Zhen, don\'t forget the agreement. Coming to the Sacred Assembly is to assist Her Majesty the Empress. Do you think only your Jiang family lost people?" Elder Muchen retorted, pushing Jiang Zhen away.
In reality, he himself felt that what the Empress did this time was somewhat excessive.
It chilled the hearts of everyone.
