Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 339: Having a Well-Thought-Out Plan

Just at this moment, Yu Qilin, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke in a low voice.

"But the oceans that separate the Four Great Continents are vast, and countless realms of death lie along the way. Even if ten thousand saints set out to sea, disregarding the losses en route, and manage to cross the ocean without subsequent resupply, they would not be able to gain a foothold on the other side."

Yu Qilin’s words were like a bucket of cold water poured over the Eldest Prince’s head, immediately extinguishing half of the fierce fire of ambition in his heart.

Qinchuan seemed calm and composed, as if he had already considered this problem and had a plan up his sleeve.

"This young master has long had a solution to this problem, so the Eldest Prince need not worry."

"However, speaking of such matters now is premature. For the moment, the Eldest Prince should focus on resolving the chaotic forces within Tianyuan Nation."

The Eldest Prince, surprised that Qinchuan claimed to have a way to solve the issue of connecting the Four Great Continents, was taken aback but didn’t press for more when he saw that Qinchuan was not willing to elaborate. Instead, he pondered Qinchuan’s words about the internal affairs of Tianyuan Nation.

Within Tianyuan Nation, there were originally four great powers: the Tianyuan Royal Family, the Heavenly Sword Sect, the Burning Heaven Sect, and the Jiuli Ghost Sect.

With a Great Emperor sitting in the Tianyuan Royal Family, the other three sects only had Quasi-Emperors at their helm. Now, with the emergence of another Great Emperor within the Burning Heaven Sect, the delicate balance among the four was bound to be disrupted.

Furthermore, following the battle of Fusang Mountain, the Jiuli Ghost Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect had suffered heavy losses. This was the perfect opportunity for the Imperial Family to overpower these two sects.

As for the Burning Heaven Sect, because of Qinchuan’s relationship, the Eldest Prince would surely not touch them, and he could even draw them over as allies to jointly confront Jiuxiang Ancient Country.

But what Qinchuan said next made the Eldest Prince even more thrilled.

"If the Eldest Prince resolves the chaotic forces within Tianyuan Nation, this young master will ensure that Exquisite Pavilion and the Burning Heaven Sect serve the Royal Family. In addition, with the Great Dao Pills that I will refine, it will be enough to unify Dongju Continent within ten years."

"Is that true?"

The Eldest Prince’s eyes blazed with an intense light, his face filled with disbelief.

He was wholly focused on Exquisite Pavilion and Burning Heaven Sect coming under Imperial command and even overlooked the detail of Qinchuan personally refining the Great Dao Pills.

Leaving the Burning Heaven Sect aside, the Eldest Prince was well aware of Exquisite Pavilion, a network spread across various nations of Dongju Continent, reputed as the number one pavilion, unrivaled in intelligence gathering.

The Imperial Family had tried numerous times to recruit or win over Exquisite Pavilion, but the Pavilion Master of Exquisite Pavilion hadn’t given them the slightest face, having kicked out their envoys several times.

For a long time, the Royal Family had abandoned such thoughts.

Now, with a single sentence from Qinchuan, the Exquisite Pavilion was expected to follow the Royal Family’s orders, which was no wonder the Eldest Prince was incredulous.

Qinchuan could easily see the disbelief on the Eldest Prince’s face. He pursed his lips and turned to Yu Qilin, asking, "Qilin, do you have any objections?"

Yu Qilin stood up and respectfully bowed, "Exquisite Pavilion will always be at the young master’s command."

Although he did not explicitly say so, it was clear that he was responding to Qinchuan’s earlier statement, and had no objections to serving the Royal Family.

This shocked the Eldest Prince and others even more, as their hearts were hit by tumultuous waves, because Yu Qilin’s words also revealed another piece of information.

Even though he knew that Qinchuan had a deep connection with Exquisite Pavilion, it never occurred to him that Exquisite Pavilion was actually under Qinchuan’s command.

And this Exquisite Pavilion, independent of Dongju Continent, had its true master behind the scenes, Qinchuan, a mere cultivator in the Meridian Opening Realm! Discover hidden content at novelbuddy

The Eldest Prince’s breathing grew heavier and more audible.

For this information, it was truly shocking, yet a boundless joy rose in his heart immediately thereafter.

He was ecstatic that he had managed to gain the support of the Exquisite Pavilion and the Burning Heaven Sect. With these two major forces backing him, ascending to the throne was a certainty; even the Third Prince’s great prestige in the army was no longer enough to compete with him.

What delighted him even more was that if what Qinchuan said was true, then it would be only a matter of time before he unified Tianyuan and dominated Dongju Continent.

The Jiuli Ghost Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect, two major sects, were not an issue in the face of the absolute power of the Imperial Family. He was confident.

While he was still immersed in his joy, Qinchuan suddenly changed the topic, his voice turning cold, as if it came from a frozen wasteland, the chill oppressive.

"This young master supports you to unify the Divine Wilderness, of course, it is not without a price. From now on, you must obey this young master!"

The Eldest Prince was startled at first but quickly came to realize.

Qinchuan provided the Great Dao Pill and had the Exquisite Pavilion and the Burning Heaven Sect follow the Imperial Family’s orders. He didn’t believe for a second that there wouldn’t be any strings attached.

But, for a sovereign of a nation to heed the commands of a cultivator, a mere Meridian Opening Realm cultivator at that, was unprecedented in all four Ancient Kingdoms of Dongju Continent.

Yet, he only hesitated for a moment before clasping his hands together and declaring with conviction, "If Brother Qin’s words today are completely true, from this day forth, Li Zhi will surely look to Young Master Qin as his leader."

A sovereign of a nation obeying a cultivator, especially one at the Meridian Opening Realm, might be unprecedented in the four great Ancient Kingdoms. But wasn’t unifying Dongju Continent and the Divine Wilderness also without precedent?

Suddenly, a powerful aura surged from Qinchuan’s body, a thread of the Asura Divine Soul’s essence materialized in the hall, bringing with it the terrifying presence of the Asura Qi, sweeping through the area.

Bloodthirsty killing intent rolled out in an instant.

That thread of the Asura Divine Soul released a terrifying aura, striking directly at their souls.

Then, Qinchuan’s voice echoed faintly: "I hope the Eldest Prince can keep his word, otherwise, the consequences of betrayal will not be pleasant."

Nine Lives Reincarnation, Qinchuan was adept at the Art of Controlling. For those under him, he knew he must offer enough temptation to lure their hearts, but also enough power to instill fear, to prevent them from harbouring second thoughts.

Having finished speaking, Qinchuan shook, and the illusion formed by the assemblage of Asura Emperor Soul’s aura dispersed.

After a long while, the terrifying aura finally dissipated. The Eldest Prince and Chen Baidao came back to their senses, gasping for air, their eyes filled with terror.

Although it was just an illusion formed by a thread of the Asura Emperor Soul’s aura, the murderous intent and the bleakness it contained were more than the two of them could bear.

"Young Master Qin..."

"How can the Divine Soul be so terrifying?"

Chen Baidao’s Divine Soul was much stronger and he recovered first. Suddenly remembering something, incredulity crossed his face, his eyes blazing as he stuttered, "You... you... are him?!"

Chen Baidao had always suspected Qinchuan was the descendant of the Great Emperor. This surge of terrifying Divine Soul Aura immediately triggered certain memories deep in his mind, leading him to believe Qinchuan might be that person from the past.

The distinctive Aura of the Asura Divine Soul was all too terrifying and familiar.

Qinchuan didn’t respond to Chen Baidao’s question but vanished in a flash, the whole person gone in an instant.

Only then did Qinchuan’s voice, distant and lingering, reach them, "I wish to ascend to the Nine Heavens and return still as the carefree Immortal! My identity must not be revealed!"

Chen Baidao had long been aware of this secret phrase, but Qinchuan’s words confirmed his suspicions.

Now that Qinchuan had decided to take the Eldest Prince under his wing, revealing his true identity was of little consequence—after all, he had already embedded a Prohibition within their Divine Souls with his power. If they spoke to others, it would trigger the Prohibition, causing their Divine Souls to self-destruct.
