PS: A long chapter of eight thousand words, repaying a bit of debt first. Also, asking everyone for some monthly tickets!

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Chu Xisheng leaped off the Bathing Sun Divine Ship, simultaneously raising his hand to shrink the ship to one foot in size, then storing it in his sleeve.

"How are the preparations on this side?"

"Everything is ready; the target's movements are under our surveillance, and now is an excellent time to act."

As Divine Fist Judge Xi Bitian spoke, he eyed the two individuals behind Chu Xisheng: "May I ask who these two are?"

"They are the helpers I invited," Chu Xisheng replied with a smile. "You should recognize this Great Mage. For absolute security, I spent a fortune inviting him to assist. As for the other person's identity, you will know in due time."

Xi Bitian thought to himself how could he not recognize him.

Ranked thirty-sixth on the Heavenly List—'Star Mage' from Luo Han Sect!

Unexpectedly, the Young Master even managed to invite such a figure.

Xi Bitian's confidence immediately surged.

This confidence was not about today's operation but about Chu Xisheng himself.

This Young Master is far more reliable and composed than he thought.

He clasped his fists from afar in salute towards the two, then with a slight hesitation, he asked Chu Xisheng: "Young Master arrived several days later than planned, did something happen?"

Chu Xisheng's expression turned sheepish upon hearing this.

He had made a trip to Extreme East Ice City and, dealing with his Divine Sun ailment while helping Ween Zhiyi, was delayed for ten days.

This was an unforeseen change.

However, Chu Xisheng had already built a thick skin, showing no abnormality on the surface: "There was a slight complication, but it has been resolved. Since everything is ready, let's proceed. Where are they?"

"At the Chu family's West Mountain Hot Spring Villa outside the city! Our people have already infiltrated nearby, just waiting for the Young Master to arrive."

Xi Bitian paused here, a hint of seriousness in his eyebrows: "However, recently another incident occurred. Although it is unrelated to today's action, it greatly concerns the master and His Highness Dominating Martial King."

"Oh?"

Chu Xisheng had already taken to the sky, flying towards the direction of the Chu family's West Mountain Villa in his memory.

His Vengeance Blade could reflect all sounds, currents, lights, etc., and could even reflect others' Divine Power and perception.

Therefore, Chu Xisheng flew forward boldly, without deliberately avoiding passersby.

While flying, he asked, "What kind of incident?"

Star Mage from Luo Han Sect, upon hearing 'Dominating Martial King', thought of the girl in black armor who appeared during the ambush a few days ago.

He thought to himself, indeed!

Dominating Martial King Qin Muge is indeed still alive.

Then this Infinite Blade Lord's identity—was the eldest son of the Chu Family Main Branch, Chu Zheng, who was buried with Qin Muge!

A hint of realization flashed in his eyes; everything was connecting.

"Chu Rulai, due to being unable to refine and subdue the two pieces of Divine Treasure, intends to open Dominating Martial King's Tomb to check the condition inside the coffin."

Divine Fist Judge Xi Bitian was also flying in the air, following behind Chu Xisheng: "He has invited several sorcerers and is currently making preparations."

He knew what Chu Xisheng and Qin Muge lacked most now was time.

Although not fearful now, in half a year, their situation would be much better.

Chu Xisheng paused in surprise, then asked strangely, "The Emperor would agree?"

That Dominating Martial King's Tomb contains enormous secrets concerning the Emperor.

His gaze turned cold, recalling the scene he saw upon awakening in the tomb and breaking out of the coffin.

"The Emperor probably agreed, otherwise Chu Rulai wouldn't dare."

Divine Fist Judge Xi Bitian's tone was icy: "Just yesterday, the State Preceptor personally went to Dominating Martial King's Tomb to guide those sorcerers in dismantling the Array. I predict they will open the tomb within these two days."

He looked at Chu Xisheng, guessing how the Young Master would respond?

Once Chu Rulai opens Dominating Martial King's Tomb, the situation will drastically worsen.

The court and Western Capital Chu Family will exhaust all means to eliminate Chu Xisheng.

Chu Xisheng and Dominating Martial King, backed by the Formless Divine Sect, appear sufficient to contend with the court.

However, the true enemy of the Formless Divine Sect had never been the Daning Court; the powers controlled by the Emperor of Daning are just as unfathomable. The Heavenly List experts within the Inner Palace alone are terrifying enough.

Countless storms and calamities are bound to sweep towards them next.

Chu Xisheng secretly sighed.

He had long expected this day to come.

"No problem." Chu Xisheng smiled calmly: "This time it's just right, let's solve this matter simultaneously."

As the two spoke, the distant 'West Mountain' was already visible from afar.

Wang'an City's 'West Mountain' is also a mountain range, with its shape resembling another world's Mang Mountain in Chu Xisheng's impression, but more magnificent, with its main peak towering nearly a thousand feet.

The Chu family's West Mountain Hot Spring Villa is located at the southern end of West Mountain.

This villa was funded by the Chu family's head from three generations ago and contains seventy-two hot springs.

It is said this location is special, connecting the Nine Nether Earth Veins below and linking to the Zhou Tian Stars above; it is an excellent place for cultivating the Chu family's ancestral cultivation techniques.

At this moment, Xi Bitian accelerated to fly in front of Chu Xisheng, guiding the three behind him to a lush mountaintop.

Seemingly uninhabited, once Xi Bitian led Chu Xisheng and the others to land, figures appeared from the forest.

These dozen people all looked over expectantly at Chu Xisheng, then their faces showed signs of excitement and enthusiasm.
