Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

This doesn't make sense, does it?

Watching them gradually start praising each other, Li Moxuan's expression was a little strange. Do women really form friendships so quickly?

On the other side, at the Holy Covenant Church, in the Palace of the Human Emperor.

Led by Ji Haoxuan, Su Xuanwei arrived at a room where an elderly man with gray hair was sitting by the bedside treating a woman.

Beside the hospital bed sat a girl in red, about the same age as Ji Haoxuan. The girl had her dark ponytail tied high, with a red ribbon and red-gold hair ornaments entwined in her hair.

Her eyelashes were thick and long, with a faint red tinge at the corners of her eyes. Her eyes were clear, cold, and sharp. She had a straight nose, lips the color of vermilion, and a clean, sharp jawline.

She wore gold tassels hanging from her ears and a red and black battle armor outfit with a cross-collar and a cinched waist. Her shoulders and arms were covered with black armor, which made her waist look even more slender, yet she showed no sign of weakness.

Upon seeing Ji Haoxuan return, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. Noticing Su Xuanwei beside him, she asked, "Haoxuan, this must be your sister, right?"

"Yes, she is my younger sister, Xiaowei!"

Ji Haoxuan nodded and introduced, "Xiao Wei, this is your sister-in-law, Zhu Qingchan..."

A faint blush spread across Zhu Qingchan's cheeks as she stepped forward and took Su Xuanwei's hand. "Xiaowei, hello!"

"Yes, sister-in-law..."

Su Xuanwei nodded blankly, his gaze falling on the white-haired woman on the hospital bed. The woman's thin figure gradually overlapped with the blurry figure in his memory.

Her voice trembled slightly, "Brother, is she our mother?"

"Yes, she is our mother, Su Yuqing..."

As for his father, he had long since died at the hands of Karl, the god of Hades, the god of the underworld...

Ji Haoxuan sighed and asked the old man beside the sickbed, "Qi Bo, how is my mother?"

The old man was actually Qi Bo, an incarnation of the Yellow Emperor's tribe, who descended to the mortal realm. Qi Bo was a famous physician in ancient times and was revered by later generations as the "Ancestor of Chinese Medicine" and the "Sage of Medicine".

He and the Yellow Emperor are collectively known as "Qihuang," and the "Qihuang technique" in traditional medicine originates from this. It is hard to say whether Qibo or the Yellow Emperor had superior medical skills, but Ji Haoxuan was definitely not as good as him.

Although he was studying the Yellow Emperor's medical skills, he made little progress; clearly, he wasn't cut out for it...

However, neither the Yellow Emperor nor Qi Bo were able to surpass the Yan Emperor Shennong in medical skills. After all, the Yan Emperor was an expert in this field, so it was normal that he couldn't compare.

But regardless, aside from a few deities, Qi Bo was virtually unmatched in medical skills…

"Your Highness, her condition is not good; it's been deteriorating, and she's only conscious for shorter and shorter periods each day..." Qi Bo sighed.

"I advise the Palace Master to ascend to the throne of the Human Emperor as soon as possible! Only then can you obtain the Kongtong Seal, and the greater the chances that I will be able to cure her!"

"I understand, thank you!"

Ji Haoxuan saw Qi Bo out, then turned back into the ward. Looking at Su Xuanwei kneeling before the bed, he sighed, "Qingchan, go out and wait for me!"

"Um……"

Ji Haoxuan walked to Su Xuanwei's side and said, "I will let Mother sober up for a while. Xiaowei, you can talk to Mother about what you want to say!"

Chapter 458: The Guardian God Seals Himself

Ji Haoxuan pointed a finger at Su Yuqing's forehead, and a massive amount of divine power surged into her mind.

After finishing, Ji Haoxuan withdrew his hand, patted his sister Su Xuanwei on the shoulder, walked out of the room, and closed the door behind him.

Soon, Su Yuqing slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was the white ceiling. As if noticing someone next to her, she turned her head and froze.

Then, somewhat agitated, she grabbed Su Xuanwei's hand, "Xiaowei, is it...is it you?"

After so many years, Su Xuanwei was also very excited to see her again. He took her hand and his eyes reddened. "Mom, it's me!"

Outside the room, Zhu Qingchan frowned slightly. "Haoxuan, have you met Li Muxuan, the one Li Mu mentioned?"

"Hmm, the Ziwei Emperor of the Heavenly Court in the Divine Realm should be his backer. If it's just the Ziwei Emperor, he shouldn't be difficult to deal with!"

Ji Haoxuan had some concerns, "But if the entire Heavenly Court gets involved, he will become our biggest obstacle..."

"The Heavenly Court has already entered the fray!"

A tall figure walked over; it was Mu Bing, who had just returned. He stood before Ji Haoxuan and said, "We've encountered the Nine Heavens Killing Child General, an incarnation of the Heavenly Court descending to the mortal realm!"

"She seems to be coming specifically for us. We few who have descended to the mortal realm will probably be held back by her. You need to expand your power, kid!"

"I will..." Ji Haoxuan agreed.

The entire Human Emperor Palace has now been invested in by Pope Silvia of the Holy Covenant Church. Of course, this is also partly due to Nar's claim upon his return that Su Yuqing is his granddaughter.

Aside from the Holy Covenant Church's guardian deities, the core layer of the Human Emperor's Palace includes Ji Haoxuan, the guardian deity of the Yellow Emperor, and Yao Xiaolin, the guardian deity of Feng Hou.

There are also Zhao Lixuan, the guardian deity of Da Hong; Zhang Heng'an, the guardian deity of Zhu Rong; Song Xinxue, the guardian deity of Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West Sea; and Shi Yan, the guardian deity of Kronos.

Although the Dragon King of the West Sea was a deity under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court, he did not interfere with the choices of the gods. Of course, this was also due to the influence of Yinglong, the ancestor of the dragon race.

Shi Yan had helped Ji Haoxuan a lot when Ji Haoxuan first entered the Great Thousand God Realm, and he gladly accepted Ji Haoxuan's invitation to join the Human Emperor's Palace.

As for why Zhu Qingchan did not enter the core layer, it was mainly because her guardian deity was the True Martial Emperor in the Heavenly Court, a direct subordinate of the Ziwei Emperor.

After learning about Li Moxuan's situation, she could sense Mu Bing and the others' wariness towards her, so she voluntarily withdrew from the core layer and rarely summoned her guardian spirit to fight.

The lowest level of the core layer's God-Human Realm is the Immortal Realm 3, and the highest is the Immortal Realm 6. Shi Yan is also the person Ji Haoxuan relies on most besides Yao Xiaolin.

"Kid, you didn't understand what I meant!"

Mu Bing looked at the room behind him. "Your sister's guardian spirit is quite powerful. It's time to help her break the seal within her, isn't it?"

Ji Haoxuan frowned. "Li Mu, her divine spark realm is not yet at the Forging Realm, there's no need to unseal it..."

"No no no!"

Mu Bing shook his head. "Her guardian spirit had already awakened, but back then you didn't want her to get involved, so you used our leader to make it seal itself away!"

"At the same time, the divine power within her body was also sealed. The reason she can still possess divine power is because the sealed divine power has overflowed, which is something only an immortal can achieve!"

"Once the seal is broken, she can quickly step into immortality, and then she can be of great help, right?"

Ji Haoxuan remained silent. He admitted that Mu Bing's words made a lot of sense, but in his eyes, his younger sister was innocent and naive, and getting involved in the war would not be good for her.

In other words, if he loses to Li Moxuan, considering their past friendship and the fact that his sister is completely uninvolved, she should not be implicated.

But if she gets involved in this war, the situation will be completely different...

Seeing his expression, Mu Bing sighed and said as a compromise, "Kid, even if you don't want her to get involved, you still have to help her break the seal, right?"

“You can’t be by her side all the time. Without the protection of a guardian angel, she’s always in danger, isn’t she?”

He'd better coax this kid into helping his sister summon her guardian spirit first. Given the bond between the two siblings, he didn't believe his sister would stand idly by when Ji Haoxuan encountered difficulties.

"Okay, I'll discuss it with her!"

Ji Haoxuan agreed. Li Mu's words did make a lot of sense; Xiao Wei needed some ability to protect herself...

"Something's wrong..."

Yao Xiaolin ran over and said in a serious tone, "According to reliable sources, the Lingyan Sword Master of the Tang Clan, who once disappeared, has returned!"

"Moreover, he seems to have successfully ascended to godhood, and is even younger than before, with his strength becoming even more unfathomable..."

"impossible!"

Mu Bing shook his head, denying his guess, "Over the years, the only one who has successfully ascended to godhood is that Sword God, and there has been no one else besides him!"

“If someone successfully ascends to godhood, our tribe couldn’t possibly be unaware of it…”

Zhu Qingchan was a little confused, "Then why did he become younger?"

When she was a child, she heard the legend of Lingyan Sword Master who single-handedly shattered the Thunder Domain with his sword. He was her uncle's idol, and according to her uncle, he was also very close to her aunt.

My aunt doesn't age, and he's returned looking young again... Could it be...?

"That's not important..."

Ji Haoxuan shook his head and asked, "Xiaolin, where is he now?"

"The Frosty Forbidden City of the Dreamland!"

"In other words, he's on Jiang Mingxuan's side..."

Ji Haoxuan frowned. "He was able to cripple the Thunder Domain single-handedly more than thirty years ago. Now that he's back, could he have already reached the ninth level of the Immortal Realm?"

"It's not impossible..."

Yao Xiaolin's expression also turned somewhat serious. "Moreover, he is the Sword Master of the Tang Clan. His return might even be able to pull the Tang Clan to Jiang Mingxuan's side!"

"At that time, Jiang Mingxuan's camp will probably become a force no weaker than Li Moxuan's camp... This is troublesome!"

The good news is that no divine incarnation has descended to the mortal realm from Jiang Mingxuan's Jiuli tribe yet. If it is indeed an Immortal Realm Ninth Stage cultivator, then Li Mu and the others can handle it.

Seeing Ji Haoxuan's worried expression, Zhu Qingchan hesitated for a moment, "How about I go back to the Frost Forbidden City?"

"Need not……"

Ji Haoxuan knew what she wanted to do, but he also knew that Zhu Qingchan would feel guilty if she did this, so he didn't want Zhu Qingchan to do it for him.

"Let's wait and see! Li Moxuan will probably have a headache for a while too. We'll make plans later..."

Zhu Qingchan gazed at him, her eyes flickering slightly, lost in thought...

Chapter 459: The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden

inside the room.

"It's been so many years, Xiaowei has grown into a beautiful young lady!" Su Yuqing said with a gentle smile, taking Su Xuanwei's hand.

"Mom, what exactly is your injury?" Su Xuan asked after a slight hesitation.

Su Yuqing didn't speak, but just shook her head. "Xiaowei, try to persuade your brother to stop causing trouble, okay?"

Su Xuan was slightly taken aback. "Why?"

"Because I don't want anything to happen to you..."

Su Yuqing took a deep breath, "Once you get involved in war, there will inevitably be sacrifices. As your mother, I only hope that you can be safe and sound!"

She patted Su Xuanwei's head. "I know my physical condition very well. I just want to spend this last bit of time with you all, okay?"

Su Xuanwei's nose tingled with tears, and she threw herself into her arms, "Mom, but I don't want you to leave either..."

"Silly boy……"
