Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws Chapter 1120

Chapter 1120: Messengers From the Seven Wings Planet, the Spacetime Crystal, a Planned Assassination
“Welcome to the dimension within the Enchanted Sleeve.” Chu Kuangren chuckled as he looked at the young man.
Just when the young man was going to attack Ren Ying, Chu Kuangren immediately transported him into his Enchanted Sleeve.
“Who the hell are you?!”
The young assassin looked at Chu Kuangren warily. Deep within his eyes, there was a hint of fear.
He could not understand how Chu Kuangren’s technique worked.
Being able to transport a peak Heavenly Daoist Celestial like him out of nowhere into such a strange dimension, he suspected Chu Kuangren must at least be an Immortal.
Before the likes of an Immortal, he had no power to resist at all!
“Who ordered you to kill Ren Ying?” Instead of answering him, Chu Kuangren asked.
“As an assassin, I will never betray my employers,” the assassin replied coldly.
“Oh?”
Chu Kuangren chuckled as he slowly opened his palms, and on it, a living red flame lotus was burning beautifully.
Then, he tossed the flame lotus, which landed on the assassin.
“What… What is this?”
The assassin’s expression changed. He realized that something was being set alight on him.
He channeled his full might to stop the flames from spreading, but to no avail. A seething pain was continuously impacting his mind.
The pain one could feel as their karma and sins being set alight was not something an ordinary person could withstand....
Besides, Chu Kuangren could also magnify the pain up to dozens or even hundreds of times, making the assassin suffer terribly.
No one could keep their mouths shut under such circumstances.
The same time could be said for the assassin here as well.
He soon gave up the names of the ones acting behind the scenes. It was one of the top-notch orthodoxies on the Firmament Star who sent him. Their reason was not because of Ren Ying but to put the blame on another clan in the Empire, the Bai clan after killing her.
Both the Ren clan and the Bai clan had something in common.
They were very loyal to the Empire!
Someone was trying to create a war between the clans and plunge the Empire into chaos.
“It looks like the Empire is quite unstable on the inside too,” Chu Kuangren mumbled.
He then burned the assassin into ashes and then informed Gu Linglong of everything that happened, allowing her to further investigate the matter.
Having much experience in governing the Empire and dealing with similar matters, Gu Linglong found something after a while.
“The ones behind this are the Heavenly Mirror Orthodoxy. However, they’re not the ones we should worry about as they have another interstellar civilization backing them… The Seven Wings Planet!” Gu Linglong said apathetically.
When the ministers and leaders of the Empire heard her, they all looked at each other.
“The Seven Wings Planet is not a civilization that we should take lightly. Unlike the other civilizations, they immediately pledged their full allegiance without a fight when we made contact with them. Hence, the strength of their civilization remains.”
“I’ve heard rumors that the Seven Wings Planet has been secretly gathering some forces from defeated civilizations in a plot to overthrow the Firmament Empire. I’ve been investigating this for a while and was about to report my findings and proofs on this. Unexpectedly, they are already a move ahead of us,” the Chaos Daoist Celestial said coldly.
“Since that’s the case, what are we waiting for? Let’s send our forces and decimate them once and for all.”
As the leader of the combat faction, the Innate Ferocious Daoist Celestial always believed that strength was the best way to resolve conflicts.
“We can send our troops. However, now is not the right time to do that. It’ll alert our enemies right away.” Gu Linglong said, “Didn’t the Seven Wings Planet send a few messengers here recently? Let’s meet them first.”
“In that case, what about the Heavenly Mirror Orthodoxy? The ones who planned to assassinate the daughter of the Ren clan?”
“I have no need for treacherous scums like them,” Gu Linglong said apathetically.
…
Somewhere inside the Capital City, several cultivators gathered. The one at the lead was a woman in a long black dress with a slender figure.
They were messengers sent by the Seven Wings Planet.
“Everyone, I suppose you’ve heard about the Heavenly Mirror Orthodoxy?” the woman in a black dress said.
“Yeah, we’ve heard.”
Everyone nodded with a stern expression.
“I can’t believe the Firmament Empire has exposed the Heavenly Mirror Orthodoxy so quickly. I can’t help but wonder whether we’re exposed as well.”
“I don’t think so. Otherwise, Queen Linglong would’ve taken action long ago. There’s no need to panic. We’ll carry out the plan as usual.”
“Very well.”
The eyes of the woman in the black dress were cold. “This time, we’re here on Firmament Star on a mission to assassinate Queen Linglong under the guise of presenting an offering. If we succeed, the Firmament Empire will lose its leader, and chaos will ensue right after.”
“When that time comes, we shall take down the Empire in one fell swoop with the forces we have gathered and then take their place!”
Everyone got excited and determined upon hearing that.
All of them understood that their mission to assassinate Queen Linglong was a very dangerous one. Whether they succeeded or not, they would all be living on the edge of death. However, for the Seven Wings Planet, for the glory of their civilizations, they would not hesitate to give it their all!
“We’ll be meeting Princess Linglong in the next few days. Everyone, try to stay in as much as possible until then, and don’t even think about discussing the Heavenly Mirror Orthodoxy,” the woman in a black dress said.
“Alright.”
“Understood.”
Three days later.
The messengers of the Seven Wings Planet arrived at the palace to meet Queen Linglong.
Looking at the high and mighty Queen Linglong, the one who held supreme authority over dozens of galaxies, sitting on the throne, the woman in black dress and others could not help but marvel at her.
“Greetings, Your Highness.”
Everyone knelt and fist-saluted.
“Greetings. You may get up now,” Queen Linglong said indifferently. She looked at the woman in black dress and others calmly. There were no emotions in her eyes at all.
On the contrary, the black-dressed woman felt a vague hint of hostility in the eyes of those standing around them.
Was it because they were from other civilizations?
As such, the black-dressed woman started to feel uneasy.
“Your Highness, we’ve come today to offer our tributes from the Seven Wings Planet. Here are ten billion spiritual marrows and a hundred thousand Immortal Crystals.”
Ten billion spiritual marrows aside, a hundred thousand Immortal Crystals were an exceptionally hefty sum even for a civilization with Immortals within their ranks because it was extremely hard to procure. At the very least, the Seven Wings Planet was quite sincere on the surface.
“I thank the Seven Wings Planet on behalf of the Empire,” Gu Linglong said calmly.
The woman in a black dress took a look around her. Although everyone seemed on high alert because of them, she gained some confidence upon remembering what her trump card could do.
“Your Highness, besides the spiritual marrows and Immortal Crystals, we also have another item to offer to the Empire,” the black-dressed woman said.
“Oh, that’s interesting. I wonder what it could be?”
“Please take a look, Your Majesty.”
The black-dressed woman took out a white crystal the size of a human fist.
That crystal was gleaming with white Immortal Sparks and mysterious Daoist patterns intertwining, exuding incredibly powerful spacetime energy.
“This item is known as the Spacetime Crystal. Its main function is to… freeze time and space!” the black-dressed woman said.
The next instant, the white crystal immediately released a burst of bright white light that spread and engulfed the entire palace within it.
At that instant, even the Immortals could feel a surge of incomparably powerful energy restricting them, rendering them immobilized!
“This is bad!”
Everyone’s expression instantly changed.
Meanwhile, the black-dressed woman and the others took action. The moment that Spacetime Crystal was activated, they charged toward Queen Linglong.
