If I become a saint, a celestial official will summon me to raise horses.

Chapter 321 The Holy King of the Underworld
After the appearance of the Mystic City, the entire dark world was illuminated by dazzling golden light, and Li Ya, who was in the middle of it, stared blankly at his surroundings.

He could sense that the power of the Mystic City was stronger than when he used it, even incomparable.

This proves that what the voice said earlier was true!
Thinking about it carefully, he never truly controlled the power of the Divine City; it was all done by him ordering the Divine Spirits around.

Above the clouds, the Lord of the Divine Realm gazed at the ever-growing Divine City, his eyes flickering, lost in thought.

Zhang Buku was overjoyed. If the Sword Master Fudao really came, then Li Ya would be saved.

In his heart, the Sword Master Fudao was also an invincible being, a sentiment shared by all beings from the Tai Cang Continent.

A figure materialized beside Li Ya, and Li Ya glanced at it, his pupils suddenly dilating.

It's that familiar demonic figure!

The dark purple demonic energy did not appear evil to him; on the contrary, it seemed quite welcoming.

Gu An turned his head and glanced at Li Ya.

Li Ya quickly raised his hand in greeting and said, "Ancestor..."

A thousand words are stuck in my throat, unable to be uttered.

Rumbling--

Rolling thunderclouds quickly covered the blood-red sky, and countless bolts of lightning surged like dragons and snakes, creating a spectacular sight that plunged the earth into a state of oppression.

The sea of ​​clouds coalesced into a giant face, occupying most of the sky and making everything in the world seem small.

Zhang Bukui stared up at the giant face, speechless. He felt an extremely terrifying pressure, a sense of oppression he had never experienced before.

Even the Lord of the Divine Realm looked solemn.

The strength of the Divine Realm Lord is comparable to that of the Carefree Immortal, and he is not as carefree as the Carefree Immortal.

This giant face is the real deal – a miraculous immortal!

An existence that surpasses even the carefree Yuanxian!
The Lord of the Mystic Realm couldn't help but look at Gu An in the Mystic City, thinking expectantly, "Sword Master Fudao, how will you face this?"

Although the Great Cold Demon Sect was strong when it besieged the mainland, none of them could match its imposing presence!

"Why does the Sword Master of the Dao not accept any rewards from the Holy Court?"

The aged voice rang out again, its tone stern.

Gu An raised his head slightly, and his voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth: "Why must we accept it? Does not entering the Holy Court make one a demon?"

If the Holy Court truly thinks this way, Gu An will have to be even more wary of the Destiny Fruit position.

Isn't the so-called destiny and position just a kind of constraint?
"No, there must be some reason why you don't enter the Holy Court. Sword Master Fudao, why are you unwilling to show your face? What are you afraid of?" The old voice was like thunder, echoing endlessly.

Upon hearing this, Gu An lost all interest in communicating.

"If you don't leave within three breaths, then don't blame me for disrespecting the Holy Court." Gu An's voice was so cold that it plunged this world into a murderous aura.

The giant face in the sky clearly changed, but it did not answer.

Three breaths seemed so long at this moment.

Zhang Bukui and Li Ya didn't dare to breathe, and the Lord of the Mysterious Realm was also waiting for the decision of that mysterious being.

Such a powerful being, even the Sword Venerable Fudao could look down upon. The Divine Realm Master was filled with emotion, realizing that his choice had been correct.

He could easily kill Li Ya, but he didn't because he was giving face to the Sword Master Fudao!
After three breaths.

Gu An raised his right hand, palm facing the giant face in the sky.

"Support the way..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the giant face in the sky suddenly disappeared, and Gu An stopped what he was doing.

The world fell silent.

Li Ya's eyes widened as he saw a huge hole being silently torn open in the rolling thunderclouds, right where the mysterious giant face was located.

He subconsciously looked at Gu An and saw an old man surrounded by mist in Gu An's palm. The old man was terrified and tried to struggle, but could not escape at all.

Li Ya couldn't hear what the old man was saying.

Gu An then disappeared from the spot.

A mystical spirit appeared on Li Ya's shoulder, patting its small chest with a lingering fear.

Zhang Bukui and the Lord of the Divine Realm were both stunned. They had thought there would be an epic battle, and the Lord of the Divine Realm was even prepared for the collapse of heaven and earth. But the mysterious powerhouse from the Holy Court was taken away just like that.
How high is the realm of the Sword Master Fudao?

The Lord of the Divine Realm was filled with fear, and a terrible thought suddenly occurred to him.

Could it be that the Sword Master Fudao is truly a demon, and from the very beginning, he has been on the opposite side of the Holy Court?

……

The waves crashed against the shore. Gu An sat on the reef, having activated his lifespan barrier. His right hand was outstretched, revealing an old man sitting cross-legged inside. This was none other than the Myriad Laws Immortal, who was stationed in the main city of the Broken Sea Domain.

Gu An is currently using the Great Soul Imprisoning Immortal Technique to search the other party's memories.

This person is named Luo Xuzi, a reincarnation of a celestial demon, holding a fourth-rank position in the Holy Court, and is one of the Great Underworld Saint King's confidants. Luo Xuzi has many memories protected by mysterious magic; if invaded, they will automatically shatter and dissipate. These memories are all related to the Great Underworld Saint King.

Unfortunately, this tactic was child's play in front of Gu An's divine sense. He easily deciphered it and even glimpsed the negotiation between Luo Xuzi and the Great Underworld Saint King.

The establishment of the Broken Sea Domain was indeed decided by the Great Underworld Saint King. Within the Broken Sea Domain was the Great Underworld Saint King's mortal enemy, the Candle World Saint King. Initially, the Great Underworld Saint King only wanted to eliminate the Candle World Saint King and make him fall into the cycle of reincarnation forever. Many of his subordinates took this opportunity to seek personal gain, which led to a catastrophe for the Broken Sea Domain.

After Gu An made his move, the Great Underworld Saint King regarded him as an enemy. Now, the Great Underworld Saint King suspects that Gu An is also a reincarnation of a Heavenly Demon, which is why he sent Luo Xuzi here.

According to Luo Xuzi's memories, the Great Underworld Saint King was not a Heavenly Demon, but he was searching extensively for the reincarnation of a Heavenly Demon, and no one knew what he was planning.

It seems that it is not the Holy Court that wants to target the Sword Master Fudao, but rather the Great Underworld Saint King's intention.

The Holy Court has a profound foundation and many factions. Although the Broken Sea Domain looks very large, it is just a tiny place in the entire Heavenly Spirit World and is not worth the attention of a third-rank Heavenly Realm expert.

The third rank of Heaven is the Saint King, and there are quite a few Saint Kings in the Holy Court. Above them are the second rank of Heavenly Ministers and the first rank of Heavenly Gods.

After searching through the soul, Gu An destroyed Luo Xuzi's soul.

He wasn't afraid that the Great Underworld King would continue to play tricks; in fact, he was looking forward to seeing what the Great Underworld King would do next.

Faced with an unknown opponent, no matter how strong his subordinates are, they will all disappear without a trace. How could the Great Underworld King not feel pressured?

Although the Holy Court did not care about the Broken Sea Region, the great battle between Gu An and the Great Cold Demon Sect back then still reached the Holy Court. The fact that the Holy Court was able to recruit the Sword Venerable Fudao also proved that most of the high-ranking members of the Holy Court had a good impression of the Sword Venerable Fudao's actions. This is also the reason why the Great Underworld Holy King only dared to hide in the dark.

A notification popped up in front of Gu An's eyes, indicating that he had taken more than 20,000 years of Luo Xuzi's lifespan.

Tsk tsk, these powerful figures are really reckless, always resorting to their true forms.

Of course, even if someone like Gu An hides his true form, Gu An still has ways to find him.

Back in the Seven Star Spirit Realm, the Thousand-Faced Divine Lord who escaped from Gu An's grasp can still be found by Gu An now, but seeing that he is honest, Gu An does not pursue him.

Cultivating immortality is not easy, so if someone knows how to appreciate it, Gu An will still appreciate it.

So far, only the Thousand-Faced God has escaped from his grasp. To be honest, he is even somewhat looking forward to seeing how far the Thousand-Faced God can go.

Gu An stood up and disappeared onto the reef.

……

Inside a dark hall in the main city of the Broken Sea Domain.

The domain lord, Qing Songzi, stood on the steps with his hands behind his back, his brows furrowed.

"Why is there suddenly no movement? Could it be that even Senior Luo Xuzi is no match for Sword Venerable Fudao? Even if he isn't, there should be more than enough movement..." Qing Songzi frowned and thought.

He wore a blue robe, had a calm demeanor, and looked to be in his forties, exuding the oppressive aura of someone in power.

He was a seventh-level Immortal of the Free and Unfettered Realm, and the Lord of the Broken Sea Domain recognized by the Holy Court. He had never felt so flustered as he did today.

The Great Rift in the Sea is right below; if there's a battle, he'll definitely be able to detect it immediately.

He dared not probe the great rift with his divine sense, for fear of causing trouble.

Even if Luo Xuzi fails, the Sword Master Fudao probably wouldn't dare to go against the Holy Court; he just needs to pretend he doesn't know anything.

At this moment, a burst of footsteps came.

Lu Xianyi walked quickly, leaving behind a series of afterimages.

He stopped at the steps, raised his hand in a gesture of respect to Qing Songzi, and said with a smile, "I wonder why you summoned me here, senior?"

Qing Songzi turned to look at him, a smile appearing on his face, and said, "Your father and I are fellow disciples. Calling me 'senior' is too formal. From now on, call me 'uncle-master'."

"Uncle."

Lu Xianyi responded in response, but in his mind he began to calculate that the other party obviously needed something from him, which was why he had such an attitude.

He also knew something about the Great Underworld Saint King behind Qing Songzi.

Could it be that the main city of Duanhai Domain suffered a setback at the hands of the Sword Master Fudao?

Lu Xianyi was secretly pleased. Over the years, he had seen many of the Holy Court's pawns infiltrate the Taicang Continent, and even the Tai Xuan Sect, to investigate the Sword Venerable Fudao. He could roughly guess that the Great Underworld Saint King was still somewhat unwilling to give up.

The Great Cold Demon Sect is a powerful weapon in the hands of the Great Underworld Saint King. Relying on the Great Cold Demon Sect, he has done many dirty jobs for the Holy Court. It is because of this that his power has grown bigger and bigger. The mistake he has made now is not enough to shake his position.

Indeed, the calamity that occurred in the Broken Sea Domain was seen by the Holy Court as a mistake made by the Great Underworld Saint King. However, this mistake was not a big deal. Some people even speculated that the Great Underworld Saint King was plotting against the Candle World Saint King. Many people chose to turn a blind eye.

The choice between the reigning Holy King and the reincarnated Holy King is easy to make.

Qing Songzi looked at Lu Xianyi and asked with a smile, "The Sword Master Fudao refuses to accept the Holy Court's destiny and position. You've been in the Tai Xuan Sect for so many years. What do you think we should do? Let him go, or investigate his background?"

Lu Xianyi thought to himself, "As expected." He pondered for a moment and then asked, "Uncle-Master, do you think the Sword Master Fudao is powerful?"

"Of course he's powerful, far beyond my reach," Qing Songzi replied without hesitation.

Lu Xianyi then asked, "If that's the case, why bother offending him? Why don't you just manage the Duanhai Region?"

Qingsongzi frowned.

Lu Xianyi said meaningfully, "The appearance of the Sword Venerable Fudao at the reincarnation site of the Holy King Zhushi suggests that the two may have a karmic connection. It is worth pondering why the Sword Venerable Fudao is hiding his identity. Uncle-Master, my father once said that living in the Holy Court is like walking on thin ice, no matter how high your cultivation level is. Staying alive is the most important thing."
