"Fifth Order Void Ancestor?"
Undoubtedly, the scene before him truly stunned Zhuge Lingtian, making it feel like a dream.
However, if the outside world were to know that he had only improved this little with so much resource, one could only imagine their reactions.
"Tsk tsk, as expected~"
"As expected of the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body, its activation is truly difficult~~"
The Purple Gold Divine Dragon's clone licked its lips, only breathing a sigh of relief after activating Zhuge Lingtian's Desolate Ancient Sacred Body.
"Hoo~"
Seeing his son's future talent so strong, Zhuge Yuan sighed with relief and then said, "Lingtian, how about I, your father, hand over the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom to you?"
After a moment of contemplation, Zhuge Yuan spoke.
"Oh!"
Upon hearing Zhuge Yuan's words, the eyes of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom's old ancestors lit up. If Lingtian were to become their Emperor, then under his reign, the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom would undoubtedly usher in an unprecedented golden age.
Such a scene alone was enough to make one incredibly excited.
However, Zhuge Lingtian, upon hearing this, frowned slightly. It didn't take him long to have an answer, "Father Emperor, I am not interested in the position of Emperor."
"Moreover, my Imperial Consort died because of me. If not for my Master, I would have likely perished and would not have been able to avenge her."
"For the rest of my life, Lingtian seeks nothing else but to stay by my Master's side and eliminate all enemies in the world for him!"
This decision had been made the moment Ye Xuan avenged him. He stated with conviction, "However, if the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom ever needs my help in the future, I will assist with all my might."
"Alas~"
Hearing this, Zhuge Yuan sighed, "Since you are unwilling, your father will not force you."
The eyes of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom's old ancestors flickered with a hint of disappointment. However, they also understood that Lingtian did not have much sense of belonging to the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom. If it weren't for his Imperial Consort, he probably wouldn't have lived in the Imperial Palace.
"So be it."
The old ancestors shook their heads with a slight regret. However, they also knew that perhaps this was a good choice. After all, following such a powerful figure, his future achievements would undoubtedly far surpass that of being the Emperor of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom.
And so...
After settling the affairs of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom, Zhuge Lingtian left the Imperial Palace with the Purple Gold Divine Dragon's clone. From time to time, Lingtian would look back at the grand hall of the Imperial Palace, wondering when he would return after this farewell.
"What, reluctant to part?"
Seeing Lingtian's expression, the Purple Gold Divine Dragon's clone chuckled, "If you are reluctant, you can still go back now."
"No!"
Zhuge Lingtian immediately refused, "It's not reluctance, I just miss my Imperial Consort a little."
"If my Imperial Consort didn't deeply love Father Emperor, I truly wouldn't have even inquired about the affairs of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom."
"Heh heh, don't think too much about it."
The Purple Gold Divine Dragon's clone patted his shoulder in comfort. In the future, your Masters and your senior brothers and sisters will be your family. You'll understand later.
"Mm."
Upon hearing his Fourth Master's words, Zhuge Lingtian nodded heavily. He was also looking forward to his future experiences.
Leaving the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom was also the beginning of his new life!
"Let's go."
The Purple Gold Divine Dragon's clone smiled slightly and led Zhuge Lingtian towards the direction of the main body.
...
Meanwhile, deep within the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom.
"Esteemed Ancestors, how should we deal with the Zhu Clan?"
Zhuge Yuan thought of the First Prince colluding with the Tongtian Immortal Kingdom. It was certain that the Zhu Clan had been involved significantly. After all, if the First Prince became the Emperor of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom, the status of the Zhu Clan would undoubtedly rise, and they would act even more presumptuously.
"This..."
"Old Ancestor Wushuang, what do you think?"
Clearly, the Zhu Clan had been entrenched in the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom for tens of thousands of years, with deep roots and complex relationships. It could be said that the Zhu Clan was a move that affected the entire body.
"The Zhu Clan?"
Upon mentioning the Zhu Clan, a fierce glint flashed in Zhuge Wushuang's eyes. "The Xuanji Immortal Kingdom has been peaceful for so long, it's time for some changes."
"The Zhu Clan, as the biggest tumor of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom, will surely be the biggest obstacle to our Xuanji Immortal Kingdom's path to prosperity. Therefore, there is no need for the Zhu family to exist."
Hmm!
As these words were spoken, everyone in the hall was shaken, and their gazes all fell upon Zhuge Wushuang.
"Old Ancestor Wushuang, are you suggesting we uproot the entire Zhu lineage?"
An old ancestor in the hall asked, while the other old ancestors, though silent, showed grave expressions.
"That's right."
Zhuge Wushuang nodded directly without concealment, then added, "However, it cannot be done in the name of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom."
"In that case..."
As Zhuge Yuan considered this, an idea suddenly struck him. "Old Ancestor Wushuang, why don't we pretend to be mysterious enemies and launch a surprise attack on the Zhu family, and then silently annihilate them?"
Hmm!?
Upon hearing Zhuge Yuan's words, all the old ancestors' eyes gleamed. In recent years, their Zhuge lineage had increasingly perceived the threat of the Zhu Clan.
Therefore, they all understood that this day would come sooner or later!
And now...
With Old Ancestor Wushuang entering the peak of the Eighth Order Immortal Elder realm, their lineage's strength had greatly increased, making it the perfect time to destroy the Zhu family.
"Good!"
"It's settled then."
Zhuge Wushuang decided after deliberation, then said, "However, to ensure it, we must minimize casualties."
"Everyone, immediately consume these two types of pills. Once everyone breaks through their cultivation, it will be the time for us to destroy the Zhu Clan."
"Yes, Old Ancestor!"
And so...
The old ancestors of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom began to consume the [Profound Grade - Immortal Breaking Pill] and the [Mortal Grade - Immortal Breaking Pill]. Of course, the Purple Gold Divine Dragon's clone also left behind thousands of strands of demonic energy from the 81st level of the Myriad Demon Pagoda. With this boost, the strength of the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom's old ancestors was bound to skyrocket.
Buzz~
Buzz buzz buzz~~
Sounds of cultivation breakthroughs echoed from the grand hall, and apart from those within the hall, no one else knew of this.
Half a day later!
As night approached, the last Immortal Elder realm old ancestor broke through, directly entering the Third Order Immortal Elder. It could be said that the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom's old ancestors had gained another super expert.
"Good!"
"Since everyone has successfully broken through, let's take action immediately!"
There was no time to waste. Zhuge Wushuang planned to act immediately. After all, the First Prince had not returned for so long, and it was inevitable that the Zhu Clan would notice something was amiss. If the Tongtian Immortal Kingdom were to intervene, it would be troublesome.
Therefore!
Before they annihilated the Zhu Clan, they must not let the Tongtian Immortal Kingdom get the slightest hint.
Upon hearing this, all the old ancestors' hearts were in their throats. Their gazes simultaneously fixed on the direction of the Zhu Clan. "This day... has finally come? The Zhu Clan will be erased from the Xuanji Immortal Kingdom tomorrow!"
