Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The three envoys from the Ice Heart Pavilion of the Upper Realm had already concluded in their hearts that Jun Wuxie had used his techniques to manipulate everyone in the Ice Cloud Tower, planting seeds of conquest in their ice-cold hearts.

A surge of anger rose within them.

However, the young man before them was unmatched in the Lower Realm. Even Hong Ran, a demon race Saint Emperor in the late stage of the mythical realm, had been nailed to the top of the imperial palace. They simply couldn't afford to provoke him.

No matter how angry they were, they could only endure it for now. If they forced the issue, they would inevitably suffer a great loss, and might even lose their lives in the Lower Realm.

"Three envoys, judging by your expressions, it seems you are somewhat dissatisfied with me?"

Jun Wuxie sat on the Tower Master's throne, his posture not particularly upright, but rather somewhat lazy, leaning slightly back and enjoying the massage from the Mu Yu Ning sisters.

"Lord Jun, let's be frank. Did Lord Jun already know that the Ice Cloud Tower's techniques had flaws?"

The three envoys stared at him intently with their ice-clear eyes, wanting to see his true reaction when he heard these words.

But all they saw was profoundness.

His eyes were like an endless starry sky, as if they could suck in one's mind and soul, giving people a feeling of being lost.

This shocked them greatly.

They possessed the realm of a Half-Step Saint King, and their souls had even broken through the shackles of the Saint Realm, truly entering the Saint King level. How could they have this feeling of being lost? Could it be that this young man's soul realm was even higher than theirs?

A peak Half-Saint of the Lower Realm Universe, who had cultivated for only twenty years, had at least reached the Saint King Realm in his soul?

How was that possible?

"Since you mention this matter, I also want to ask you. Since your current Pavilion Master is the founder of the Ice Cloud Tower, knowing that the Ice Cloud Tower's techniques in the Lower Realm have problems, why did you only send people to the Lower Realm now?"

"What?" Mu Xue Lan, Mu Yun Xi, Mu Yu Ning, and the four sisters, as well as everyone in the Ice Cloud Tower present, looked at him and the three envoys in shock. "The Ancestral Founder? The Ancestral Founder is still alive? She went to the Upper Realm? She is the current Pavilion Master of the Ice Heart Pavilion in the Upper Realm?"

"According to the information I have gathered, your Ancestral Founder is in the Upper Realm, and is now the master of the Ice Heart Pavilion in the Upper Realm."

Jun Wuxie nodded, leaving everyone in the Ice Cloud Tower unable to recover for a long time.

They felt it was too unbelievable.

The Ancestral Founder was a figure from hundreds of thousands of years ago. When the Ancestral Founder left the Ice Cloud Tower, she said she was going to seek the path to the Upper Realm, and since then, there had been no news.

Over the long years, their Ice Cloud Tower had never been able to contact the Upper Realm through the enshrined shrines and statues, nor had they received any news from the Ancestral Founder.

If it was really the Ancestral Founder, why had she never contacted the Lower Realm?

"It seems that Lord Jun, you did know about the problems with their techniques…" The three envoys' hearts sank, and they became even more convinced that he had tampered with the flaws in the techniques. Their voices also turned cold and hard: "Lord Jun, you are being unreasonable! Although you protected the Ice Cloud Tower, you used the flaws in the techniques to conquer them, and now you are questioning our Pavilion Master for not sending people to the Lower Realm sooner!"

"Please be mindful of your words, three envoys, and do not make unfounded accusations and distort the truth!" Mu Xue Lan's expression turned slightly cold, and she said: "I wonder who told you three that my husband used the flaws in the techniques to conquer the Ice Cloud Tower? Do you have any evidence?"

"Evidence? What evidence is needed? Look at all these people here, which of you dares to stand up and say that you do not feel love, or even infatuation, for him? A sect, infatuated with the same man, is there any other possibility besides him using despicable means?"

"Heh heh!" Mu Xue Lan laughed coldly and said: "If in your Upper Realm Universe, there was such a young man who was unmatched in the Upper Realm, who intimidated the entire Starry Universe, who had the power to save the universe and all living beings in the cataclysmic torrent, would you dare to say that the three of you would not feel love for him, would not admire him, would not be infatuated with him?"

"This…"

The three envoys were stunned, imagining such a scene in their minds.

Would they feel love?

They cultivated the 【Ice Heart Purifying World Art】, their sword hearts were clear, flawless, and their hearts were like still water. How could they feel love?

But for some reason, when they thought of such an existence in the world, their still water-like state of mind actually had some ripples.

"Impossible, how could there be such a man in the world? Even those ultimate powerhouses in the Upper Realm could not be absolutely invincible. Even if the protagonists of the past eras were invincible in one-on-one battles, they could not intimidate the entire universe!"

"What's impossible? It's just that such a person hasn't appeared yet, but one day he will appear." Mu Xue Lan said: "We have long abandoned the 【Ice Muscle Jade Bone Art】 left by the Ancestral Founder, and now we are cultivating higher-level ice-attribute techniques. If my husband hadn't discovered the flaws in the techniques, if we had continued to cultivate them, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

"You have already abandoned the cultivation of the 【Ice Muscle Jade Bone Art】?"

The three envoys were shocked. If this was the case, it meant that Jun Wuxie had not tampered with the flaws in the 【Ice Muscle Jade Bone Art】.

"Their current Dao hearts are more resilient than yours." Jun Wuxie looked at Mu Yu Ning and said: "Yu Ning, go and compare Dao hearts with the envoys."

Mu Yu Ning obediently nodded, walked down the steps, came to the three envoys, and in her beautiful and clear eyes, ice-blue sword Dao runes evolved.

The envoy sitting in the middle of the three envoys immediately got up and met her eyes.

In both of their eyes, sword Dao runes bloomed, forming a special confrontation field between them.

Their bodies did not move, but they were competing with their mental will. This was a confrontation between the Ice Heart Sword Dao and willpower.

That envoy naturally did not use her Saint King Realm soul, but only suppressed her soul realm to the same level as Mu Yu Ning's, the purpose being to see if what Mu Xue Lan said was true, and whether their Dao hearts had flaws.

As a result, half an hour later, the envoy's delicate body swayed slightly, and fine beads of sweat oozed from her beautiful face. Looking at Mu Yu Ning, she was not in the slightest bit of a difficult situation, and her expression was natural.

"How could this be…"

That envoy fell back into the chair, slightly dazed, and forgot to wipe the sweat from her face.

In her opinion, Mu Yu Ning was willing to be Jun Wuxie's maidservant, her body and mind were conquered, and her Dao heart had flaws, so it was impossible to compare with her Dao heart, which was as still as water, flawless and without blemish.

But the truth was that she had actually lost. In the same realm, in the confrontation between the Ice Heart Sword Dao and willpower, she was actually no match for the other party!

"You have your cultivation path, and they have their cultivation path. You have never personally experienced their cultivation path, so how can you be sure that your Dao is more perfect than theirs?"

"This…"

The three envoys did not know how to answer Jun Wuxie's words.

The facts were before their eyes, they had lost to Mu Yu Ning in the confrontation of Dao hearts!

The three envoys sighed and said: "Our trip to the Lower Realm, in addition to bringing them to the Upper Realm, is also to carry out the Pavilion Master's order and bring the 【Ice Heart Purifying World Art】, the cultivation technique of our Ice Heart Pavilion, to replace the 【Ice Muscle Jade Bone Art】 for everyone in the Ice Cloud Tower. Now it seems that it is superfluous…"

"I would like to know, why didn't your Pavilion Master let people contact the Lower Realm earlier and inform the Ice Cloud Tower that there was a big problem with the techniques? Fortunately, the Lower Realm Universe has been very peaceful for hundreds of thousands of years, and they have been biding their time, waiting to deal with the cataclysmic torrent, otherwise the Ice Cloud Tower would have been gone long ago!"

"It's not that the Pavilion Master didn't contact the Lower Realm, but that our connection channel with the Lower Realm Ice Cloud Tower was intercepted by someone and severely damaged, making it impossible to reconnect. If it weren't for the arrival of the cataclysm in the Lower Realm, which weakened the space nodes between the two realms, we would not have been able to open the channel to the Lower Realm!"

"Who intercepted your connection with the Lower Realm?"

Jun Wuxie's expression was solemn. The key here was why intercept the connection between the Ice Heart Pavilion and the Lower Realm? It could basically be concluded that the purpose of intercepting the channel was to prevent the Ice Heart Pavilion of the Upper Realm from conveying the message that there was a problem with the techniques to the Ice Cloud Tower of the Lower Realm.

In that case, it meant that the person who intercepted the connection should be the one who plotted against the Ice Cloud Tower back then.

"We don't know who it is yet. The Pavilion Master has been investigating for many years. At first, the Pavilion Master went to the Upper Realm and lay dormant for hundreds of years. After her realm had improved, she traveled the world, but encountered pursuit, and almost fell into the hands of those people after nine deaths and one life. At that time, the Pavilion Master was seriously injured, on the verge of death, and by chance, broke into a secret place, relying on the special environment there to seal herself for recuperation, sleeping for hundreds of thousands of years. Once she woke up, she broke through several realms in a row, reaching the Saint Ancestor Realm…"

"Later, for hundreds of years, the Pavilion Master secretly investigated and accidentally discovered that there was also a problem with our Ice Heart Pavilion's techniques…"

The three envoys said that after Pavilion Master Mu Ci Yin lay dormant for hundreds of years again, one day, she forcefully entered the Ice Heart Pavilion, and with the support of some of the Ice Heart Pavilion's powerful experts, she solved the problem of the techniques, which saved the Ice Heart Pavilion from an unknown disaster.

The more Jun Wuxie listened, the more shocked he became. How many years had the Ice Heart Pavilion been passed down in the Upper Realm?

Such a force, and there were problems with their techniques?

"Your techniques, weren't they available since the founding of the sect? With your inheritance, you shouldn't have been unable to discover the problem for such a long time!"

"We don't know the specifics. With our status in the sect, we can only understand this much. The specifics are probably only known to the higher-ups of the sect."

Jun Wuxie nodded and did not continue to talk about this matter, thinking that they would not be able to understand the detailed secrets, and only said: "Three envoys, in addition to bringing down these messages, you also want to bring some people from the Ice Cloud Tower to the Upper Realm, right?"

"Yes!" They nodded and said: "The cataclysm in the Lower Realm Universe is approaching. The Pavilion Master ordered us to bring everyone in the Ice Cloud Tower to the Upper Realm to join the Ice Heart Pavilion for cultivation and avoid the cataclysmic torrent."

"Everyone?"

Jun Wuxie's eyes twitched slightly and said: "I don't agree. You won't take away a single person!"

"Lord, what is the meaning of this?" The three envoys looked at him in shock and anger. "Lord knows that the torrent of the apocalypse is coming. Does Lord really have a 100% certainty of resisting the darkness and protecting everyone in the Immortal Execution Dynasty? Their safety can be guaranteed when they go to the Upper Realm. There is a vast world and a better cultivation environment. Why doesn't Lord agree?"

"You say their safety can be guaranteed, but in my opinion, there is no guarantee of safety given the current situation. If I let you take all of them to the Ice Heart Pavilion in the Upper Realm, I might be sending them into the abyss. Do you think I would gamble with their fates?"

"Lord, what do you mean? Do you not trust us, or do you not trust our Ice Cloud Tower? The Pavilion Master is the founder of the Ice Cloud Tower!"

The three envoys did not expect to receive such an answer, which shocked them.

"Do you want to go to the Upper Realm?"

Jun Wushang looked at the women of the Ice Cloud Tower.

"The Ice Cloud Tower, from top to bottom, is grateful for Lord's grace of re-creation. Wherever Lord is, we will be!"

Everyone in the Ice Cloud Tower in the main hall, whether they were managers or true disciples, spoke in unison, neatly and uniformly.

"Very well, since that's the case, listen to my arrangements." Jun Wushang said, looking at the three envoys with angry expressions, and said, "This matter is of great importance, involving the fate of hundreds of thousands of people in the Ice Cloud Tower. How can I be hasty? Without absolute certainty, I will not agree to any of them going to the Upper Realm! If your Pavilion Master truly cares about the Ice Cloud Tower, then please send a message back and ask your Pavilion Master to descend to the Lower Realm in person!"

"You…"

The three envoys' faces were cold, and they said, "Lord, although you are invincible in the Lower Realm, making such a request is simply wishful thinking! What is the Pavilion Master's status? How could she personally descend to the Lower Realm because of your words?"

"Why can't she descend to the Lower Realm? If she is truly the founder of the Ice Cloud Tower, this is her root. Is it difficult to come back and take a look? The Ice Cloud Tower is her legacy. If she really cares, she should know that if she doesn't personally descend to the Lower Realm, I cannot entrust their fates into your hands based solely on the words of you few!"

"Lord, with all due respect, with your strength, if you go to the Upper Realm, you would not even be qualified to see the lower-level managers of our sect, let alone our Pavilion Master!"

"Then there's no need to talk about it. Whether to send a message back to the Upper Realm and inform your Pavilion Master is up to you." Jun Wushang flicked his sleeves, closed his eyes, and said, "Xue Lan, see the guests out!"

"You…"

The three envoys of the Ice Heart Pavilion were so angry that their snow-like skin turned a little red, and their full chests rose and fell.

"Three envoys, please."

Mu Xuelan stepped down the steps, made a gesture of invitation, and issued an eviction order.

The three envoys looked at each other, then snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Mu Xuelan escorted them out of the sect all the way before returning.

"Our founder, is she really still alive?"

After the envoys of the Ice Heart Pavilion left, the women of the Ice Cloud Tower still looked a little dazed as they thought about it.

They had only seen the statue of the founder and some of the deeds recorded in the ancient books of the sect.

However, they had a strange feeling for the title of founder.

In fact, everyone in them had the bloodline of the founder flowing through their veins.

In those years, the first group of people in the Ice Cloud Tower were conceived by placing the founder's essence blood into the Ice Cloud Heart. In this way, they gradually branched out and expanded, which led to the growth of the Ice Cloud Tower.

"I can't be sure now. When the Pavilion Master of the Ice Heart Pavilion descends to the Lower Realm, everything will come to light at that time as to whether she is or is not."

"If she isn't, then why would she descend to the Lower Realm?"

The women all looked at Jun Wushang with puzzled eyes.

"As long as those envoys send the information back to the Upper Realm, whether she is or is not, she will descend to the Lower Realm, because she wants to achieve the goal of taking you to the Upper Realm."

"Then how can we tell whether she is our founder at that time? After all, appearances can be faked. If someone with ulterior motives has put in the effort in this regard, I am afraid that they will disguise themselves perfectly."

"You don't have to worry about these things. As long as she descends to the Lower Realm, I will be able to tell whether she is real or fake. Now, you can cultivate in peace and wait patiently. Don't worry about this, and leave everything to me."

After he finished speaking, he got up and left.

"Respectfully send off Lord!"

The Ice Cloud Tower, from top to bottom, stood neatly and uniformly, and sent him to the square of the main hall, watching him leave.

"You barbarian from the Lower Realm surnamed Jun, your end is coming! When the strong men of my demon race descend to the Lower Realm, you will die without a burial place!"

As soon as he arrived in the sky above the imperial capital, he heard Hong Ran's cold and fierce voice.

Its huge snake head was nailed to the top of a tall building, dripping with blood. Although its body was cut off and its soul was severely damaged, its ferocity did not diminish at all, and it was shouting there.
