Sole Sword Supremacy-Chapter 585 - 589: The Four Great Heavenly Sects Enter the Capital, Shaking the World

Chapter 585: Chapter 589: The Four Great Heavenly Sects Enter the Capital, Shaking the World

"Impossible!"

Glaring at Qu Lishang, the Saint Realm powerhouse wielding the blade by the Emperor’s side scolded gravely, "Qu Lishang, don’t try to scare people. Why would the Four Great Celestial Sects join hands to enter the Capital City? Could it also be to protect this young man?"

To be honest, just the entry of Zhou Dongfei and Qu Lishang into the Capital was already surprising enough.

Even if Wang Junze is an extraordinary genius, for the Profound Moon Sword Sect to support him at all costs is already the limit. What power does he have to convince the Four Great Celestial Sects to help him? If he truly had such power, why bother with these trivial tricks to disrupt a wedding?

"He certainly doesn’t qualify, but... His Majesty’s plan to divide and conquer the Four Great Celestial Sects is enough to make them unite."

Looking at the Emperor, Qu Lishang calmly said, "Your Majesty indeed has great vision, wishing to break the pattern of shared governance between the sects and the court, but achieving this is no easy task."

The Emperor’s heart sank slightly, and only at this moment did His Majesty show an emotional reaction.

Continuously dividing the Four Great Celestial Sects, establishing Judgment Department outposts in various places, and eroding the sects’ influence over the world—this was indeed his plan. But it had always been in a phase of gradual exploration, never reaching the point of drastic reforms and public exposure.

It shouldn’t have aroused the Four Great Celestial Sects’ vigilance and countermeasures this quickly. What role did Qu Lishang play in this that caused the sects to react prematurely?

"Very well, I also wish to speak with the masters of the Four Great Celestial Sects, in that case... I await your arrival!"

With a wave of his hand, the Emperor slowly stood up, a sharp glint in his eyes, and spoke coolly.

"Start the carriage, return to the palace!"

The eunuch beside him immediately shouted at the top of his voice.

Since there was no intention of turning hostile immediately, there naturally was nothing further to discuss for now.

As for the outcome of Wang Junze’s battle with Prince Yu, it was tacitly agreed upon.

However, since Prince Yu is dead, this matter certainly won’t end so easily. Given the Emperor’s status, he naturally wouldn’t target a mere Wang Junze—he isn’t worthy. So, this anger will inevitably fall on Qu Lishang and the Profound Moon Sword Sect. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Once the matter with the Four Great Celestial Sects is resolved, it will be the time to retaliate against Wang Junze.

In a brief moment, most of the people at Prince Yu’s mansion left.

Now, apart from Wang Junze, Jing Yuan, and their people, only Su Yuwei remained.

Her final intervention just now had also made her stance clear—to some extent, it meant she had broken with the court because of King of Changlin’s presence, preventing the court from questioning her directly.

But even King of Changlin would not easily make a statement at such a time.

"Disciple pays respects to Master and Master Qu!"

Slightly bowing, Wang Junze, fighting fatigue, saluted Zhou Dongfei and Qu Lishang.

This trip to the Capital City was full of unexpected events, completely different from his plans. If not for Qu Lishang’s intervention, he might not have survived today.

"Stand up, all I can do to help you is this much."

With a sigh, Zhou Dongfei shook his head and said, "Taking this opportunity, I will do my best to help you and Qingxuan resolve the ties of the Life and Death Contract. The road ahead... you must walk it yourself."

Some words were left unspoken by Zhou Dongfei, but their meaning was clearly conveyed.

Since Wang Junze chose Su Yuwei this time, from now on, he and Luo Qingxuan would have no further ties. Moreover, regardless of Wang Junze’s talent, he could no longer assume leadership of the Profound Moon Sword Sect, and if necessary... the sect would also sever ties with him.

Past affections would also be completely repaid with the Profound Moon Sword Sect’s assistance this time.

Luo Qingxuan wanted to say something, but under the Great Nether Mirror’s cover, she could say nothing, forcibly taken away by Zhou Dongfei.

"Don’t blame him, Brother Zhou is first the Sect Leader of the Profound Moon Sword Sect, then your master."

With a gentle laugh, Qu Lishang patted Wang Junze’s shoulder, comforting him, "Besides... Qingxuan was raised by him."

"I understand!"

With a slight nod, Wang Junze replied softly.

"How is it? Are your injuries severe?"

Looking at Wang Junze, Qu Lishang asked again.

"The injuries aren’t severe, it’s just..." With a bitter smile, Wang Junze shook his head, "The Path Domain shattered. Condensing it again might be very difficult."

In order to kill Prince Yu, Wang Junze shattered his Sword Domain’s prototype, naturally causing damage to his Sword Dao.

Of course, with Divine Travel Realm strength, he shouldn’t have been able to condense a Path Domain. However, it will be difficult for him to deploy a Path Domain again before truly breaking through to Entering the Path, and the difficulty of entering the path has increased manifold compared to before.

Only because Wang Junze is such a rare Sword Path Genius, otherwise, for an ordinary cultivator, it would practically mean their cultivation path is severed.

"Break and then establish."

Qu Lishang wasn’t overly pessimistic and instead chuckled, "The Path Domain you formed before, I saw it. It was merely a forced blend of various Sword Intents, neither pure nor strong. It’s not a loss that it’s destroyed."

"With your talent, entering the Saint Realm isn’t hard, but truly carving out your own Sword Dao path and becoming a top-tier powerhouse won’t be easy."

"Thank you for your guidance, Master Qu!"

Moved slightly at heart, Wang Junze once again bowed.

"Go now, the upcoming matters are beyond your reach... I should also head to the Judgment Department to meet some old acquaintances."

Waving his hand, stepping out, Qu Lishang’s figure also vanished into the night sky.

Even though the Emperor didn’t insist on his going to the Judgment Department, since he was in the Capital City, Qu Lishang couldn’t possibly not meet the Director of the Judgment Department. In some ways, the Director’s attitude might be more important than the Emperor’s.

"Let’s also leave!"

Looking at everyone, Wang Junze took a deep breath and finally spoke.

With a slight nod, Su Yuwei walked up to Wang Junze, personally supporting him as they walked out of Prince Yu’s mansion.

The others didn’t disturb the interaction between Wang Junze and Su Yuwei, instead, they voluntarily kept a little distance.

In fact, not only Su Yuwei had words to say to Wang Junze, but others also had mixed feelings. Especially Jing Yuan, whose mind was already filled with thoughts about the meeting between the Four Great Celestial Sects and the court, leaving no room for anything else.

In some respects, everything that happened today seemed insignificant beside this larger issue.
