Super Martial Era: My Little World

Chapter 169 Changes in the Capital
The Yantong Temple in Shiyanjing, the capital of the Great Wei Empire, is one of the largest Taoist temples of the Fengyan Sect, second only to the headquarters Fengyan Temple on Fengyan Mountain.

The Yantong Temple was bustling with activity and visitors every day, but the vast back mountain of the Yantong Temple was not open to the public.

"Lao Lin, you're here! We haven't seen each other for a long time!"

Yang Lie arrived at the back mountain of Yantong Temple, and a tall, elegant middle-aged man came forward and spoke enthusiastically.

Yang Lie smiled warmly and said, "Old Liu, long time no see. I remember the last time we met was in Yuehua Tower. The top performer there, Susu, was really good!"

The middle-aged man was none other than Liu Zhentong, one of Lin Yuan's good friends from the Fengyan Sect. Both of them had lost their chance to advance to the fifth level of the Demon Eye and had been dispatched by headquarters to various Daoist temples.

Liu Zhentong said with a look of regret, "Yes! But the top performer of Yuehua Tower is far inferior to the top performer of Shengxiang Tower in the capital of Shiyan Shenjing, Fairy Binghua! She is a beauty that even the emperor praised highly! It's a pity that she became the emperor's forbidden descendant!"

Yang Lie asked, "Old Liu, do you know why the sect summoned us here?"

Liu Zhentong sighed dejectedly, "What a bummer! What else could it be? The Emperor is seriously ill, and two princes are vying for the throne! My Saint Daughter is marrying the Third Prince, and we have no choice but to support him! Otherwise, if the Sixth Prince ascends the throne, our Fengyan Sect will be in danger. He's a lunatic!"

Yang Lie frowned slightly and said, "Even if the Sixth Prince ascends the throne, he wouldn't dare to act rashly!"

The Fengyan Sect was one of the six major religious sects of the Wei Empire, with temples spread across the country and numerous experts. There were even several Transcendent Fifth-level True Immortals.

Liu Zhentong said with a bitter face, "You still don't know? That's right, Qingmu Temple is too far from the headquarters. You don't care about these things! The Sixth Prince's mother, wife, and several children were killed by people from our sect. He himself was assassinated many times by our Fengyan Sect, and his cultivation foundation was cut off. Do you think he will let our Fengyan Sect go after he ascends the throne?"

Yang Lie sighed helplessly, "Then we must kill him!!"

The Fengyan Cult and the Sixth Prince have a deep hatred for the throne, and the feud can only end when one of them is eliminated. Although the Fengyan Cult is powerful, it is only one of the six major sects in the Wei Empire.

Though the Great Wei Empire was decaying, it still held a multitude of powerful individuals. The imperial family was a terrifying force, on par with, and perhaps even surpassing, the Fengyan Cult. Once the Sixth Prince ascended the throne, he would be the legitimate emperor, inheriting the vast majority of the imperial family's power. If he were to become an enemy of the Fengyan Cult, they would most likely be expelled from the Great Wei Empire.

Yang Lie chatted with Liu Zhentong while observing his surroundings.

There were more than 300 masters of Taoist temples from all over the Fengyan Sect gathered around, and each of them possessed the extraordinary strength of the fourth-level Four Demon Eyes.

when!when!when!
Suddenly, nine rapid bells rang in Yantong Temple.

Liu Zhentong's face changed drastically and he said, "Nine urgent bells! This is a big thing!!"

In Fengyan Sect, the sound of the Nine-Acute Bell represents the highest level.

The faces of many of the temple masters present changed drastically.

A tall old man with a youthful face and white hair, wearing a Taoist robe with a huge wind-flame demon pupil tattooed on it, walked in. Behind him followed a dozen powerful men also wearing Taoist robes and with extraordinary temperaments.

"I've met the leader!"

Many of the temple masters present bowed respectfully to the old man.

That old man is the leader of Fengyan Sect and one of the most powerful magic pupil envoys in the world!

"He is Feng Yanzi, the leader of the Fengyan Sect. He possesses a terrifying power comparable to that of a peak Jindan cultivator. The dozen or so people behind him are also Jindan-level experts, but they are no match for him."

Yang Lie used his Blood Saint Eye to discreetly observe the strength and cultivation of Feng Yanzi and those around him. Feng Yanzi spoke slowly, "The Emperor has passed away! The most urgent task is to support the Third Prince on the throne! Everyone, follow me in battle today! If anyone achieves sufficient merit, I will reward them generously. Even the Five-Eyed Transformation Pill can be bestowed upon those who achieve great success!"

"Yes! Sect Master!"

A burning look flashed across the eyes of many observers present.

The Five-Eyed Transformation Pill is a necessary resource for a Four-Eyed Master to advance to the True Master level. Lin Yuan, not being a True Disciple, was unable to obtain the Five-Eyed Transformation Pill, which is why he left the headquarters and came to Qingmu Temple, where he spent his days in debauchery and debauchery.

"action!"

Feng Yanzi left a sentence and turned away.

Jin Liuyuan, the tenth elder of the Fengyan Sect, shouted, "Lin Yuan! Come here!"

"Yes!"

Yang Lie came behind Jin Liuyuan. At this time, around Jin Liuyuan had gathered more than a dozen temple masters from the Great Wei Empire and more than a dozen four-eyed strong men who were practicing in the Fengyan Sect headquarters.

"follow me!"

Jin Liuyuan shouted loudly, and everyone followed him and flew out. He followed closely behind Feng Yanzi.

A group of people flew towards the palace.

"Feng Yanzi, we are all outsiders! We shouldn't get involved in the struggle for the throne. Please leave. I can make the Sixth Prince swear that after he ascends the throne, he will never take action against your Feng Yan Sect!"

An old man with a tall stature, a bun, a white lotus Taoist robe made of magic eyes, and a Taoist air stood in front of Feng Yanzi and spoke slowly.

The old man was none other than Sheng Lianzi, the leader of the Beilian Sect, the Fengyan Cult's sworn enemy. He naturally supported the Sixth Prince. Following Sheng Lianzi were numerous powerful Beilian Sect members.

"What a Luoshui oath! Let's see if Feng Yanzi will be fooled!"

Yang Lie's gaze immediately fell on Feng Yanzi.

Feng Yanzi said coldly, "Holy Lotus Seed, get out of the way, or today will be the day you die!"

"In that case, then you should stay with me!"

Holy Lotus Seed sighed slightly, and five devil eyes on his head suddenly opened, as if made of lotus flowers. Thick, insoluble black devil energy flowed from his body, and the almost endless devil energy condensed under him to form a devil eye lotus that was a hundred meters long.

The one hundred devil eyes on the devil eye lotus suddenly opened, and dense lotus petals swept directly towards Feng Yanzi.

"The Hundred-Eyed Demonic Lotus Formation! You want to stop me?! It's no use! You can't stop me for long!!"

A fierce light flashed in Feng Yanzi's eyes, and five magic eyes opened on his forehead. Three of the magic eyes spewed out red flames, and two of the magic eyes spewed out strong winds. The wind fanned the flames, turning the red flames into a fire storm, sweeping towards the lotus petals.

Under the burning flames, all the lotus flowers were burned to ashes. Wherever the terrifying flames passed, the surrounding temperature suddenly rose. All the wooden houses within a radius of a thousand meters were set on fire one after another. A large number of mortals were also set on fire, wailing miserably.
