Divine King of Honour-Chapter 769 - 768 Establishment of the Heavenly Court

Hong Xiang and Bu Keng were startled.

They hadn't expected the Rashamon City Lord to agree to Xu Nian's proposal so readily.

Xu Nian, on the other hand, wasn't surprised.

Though the Rashamon City Lord hadn't expressed much,

he could still tell that she was the kind of person who was eager for revenge.

The fact that she held Rashamon City in such high regard already signified that it held her sentiments.

Therefore, when Xu Nian mentioned that he could help her with her vendetta, she immediately agreed.

"Are you really going to establish a power?" Hong Xiang asked.

Xu Nian nodded.

He had come to the Cultivation World,

increasingly aware of the importance of having a power base.

Clearly, the strength of a single individual was no match for that of a massive power.

Moreover, he wanted to help the daughter of the Beast God.

He wanted to find Murong Xue at Tiancang Sect.

He wanted to support his Master Bai Tianhan against the enemies of the Four Great Sects.

If he wanted to establish the Divine Demon Sect and glorify it, he needed his own power base.

"So what's your plan?" Hong Xiang asked.

"The power I'm going to establish doesn't need to have many people, but they must each be a talent. It's alright if their current strength isn't strong, but they must have potential," Xu Nian said lightly, his eyes full of determination and resolve.

"Can I join?" Hong Xiang asked.

"Aren't you going back to the Heavenly Array Sect? With the status your Master gave you, even the Heavenly Array Sect Master would probably have to treat you with considerable respect," Xu Nian asked with a smile.

Despite not being as naturally gifted in Arrays as Xu Nian, Hong Xiang was in fact an Array genius.

If she was willing to stay, Xu Nian naturally had no objections. freewebnøvel.coɱ

"I won't go back. My Master once told me that to become an Array Master, mere comprehension isn't enough; one must also endure hardships. If I go back to the Heavenly Array Sect, I'm afraid I won't grow very quickly," Hong Xiang said.

Xu Nian nodded, saying, "Alright, then, since you're willing to stay, you are naturally welcome."

Hong Xiang's face immediately brightened with joy.

"What about me? Can I join your power?" Bu Keng quickly asked with a grin.

"You? Clarify your identity first," Xu Nian replied with a light laugh.

Bu Keng's expression froze instantly, and his mouth twitched slightly.

Hong Xiang and the Rashamon City Lord exchanged glances.

Clearly, they had both noticed that Bu Keng was exceptionally secretive about his own identity.

"Now that we're a power, shouldn't we have a name? Help me think of one," Xu Nian said to the two women.

He had initially wanted to name it directly as the Divine Demon Sect.

But upon further thought, he decided against it.

If he revealed themselves as the Divine Demon Sect now, it would undoubtedly attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.

That wouldn't be good for them.

Moreover, Xu Nian had considered that the Divine Demon Sect was its own thing.

His power was his own.

The two shouldn't be conflated.

The Divine Demon Sect could be established later, but certainly not now.

"Why not call it the Rashamon Sect?" Hong Xiang suggested.

Since they were basing themselves in Rashamon City, it made sense to name it after the city.

Xu Nian, however, shook his head.

Rashamon Sect didn't sound prestigious enough.

In addition, it seemed somewhat vulgar.

"How about Heavenly Court?" the Rashamon City Lord suddenly suggested.

"Heavenly Court?" Xu Nian was taken aback, savoring the two words carefully.

Eventually, a spark shone in his eyes.

Hong Xiang also nodded her head; she too thought the name was good.

Only Bu Keng muttered to himself, "Heavenly Court? Am I Sun Monkey then? Do you think you're the Jade Emperor? I might as well be Tathagata Buddha!"

Although Xu Nian heard Bu Keng's remarks,

he had no idea what Bu Keng was talking about.

He, however, didn't pay it much mind.

After all, this wasn't his first encounter with Bu Keng's mystique.

"Alright, starting from today, the Heavenly Court is officially formed," Xu Nian immediately declared.

The Rashamon City Lord and Hong Xiang both had smiles on their faces.

Xu Nian, too, gave a faint smile.

"Now our Heavenly Court has three people, and if we count Senior Xuan Hong, that makes four," Hong Xiang spoke up.

Xu Nian, however, shook his head with a smile, extending a palm with fingers splayed.

"No, it's five people!" Xu Nian said with a laugh.

"Eh? Who else?" Both Hong Xiang and the Rashamon City Lord were startled, curiously looking at Xu Nian.

Xu Nian slightly smiled and waved his sleeve.

Instantly, a golden skeleton appeared within everyone's view.

"What the?" Bu Keng suddenly exclaimed, looking at the Netherworld King with a mixture of astonishment and disbelief.

The Netherworld King, however, just smiled at Bu Keng.

The skeleton's teeth made a clattering sound, sending chills down Bu Keng's spine.

Both Hong Xiang and the Rashamon City Lord had looks of surprise on their faces.

Clearly, they hadn't expected Xu Nian to be accompanied by such a sinister creature.

"Do you mean, it's also a member of the Heavenly Court?" Hong Xiang asked.

Xu Nian responded with a smile, "Yes, it is called the Netherworld King. Don't see it as just an evil being—its potential is extraordinary. It possesses independent intelligence and its cultivation speed is no worse than that of a human prodigy."

Hong Xiang and the Rashamon City Lord nodded their heads in understanding.

On the other hand, Bu Keng twitched his mouth slightly.

He had a premonition that the Heavenly Court would one day become renowned throughout the entire Cultivation World.

"Then, Court Master, what do you plan to do next?" Hong Xiang asked.

Xu Nian simply smiled and said, "Wait."

"Wait?" Both Hong Xiang and the Rashamon City Lord were confused.

But soon, they understood something.

Xu Nian had a very clear idea.

Now that the Heavenly Court was formed, the Spirit Stone Vein would become his first prey.

He would make the entire Cultivation World tremble at the name of the Heavenly Court.

...

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the eastern ravines.

At this moment, the Feng Family Patriarch was like an ant on a hot pan.

He looked at Feng Yan who was in agony, his whole body turning purple.

His sword-like eyebrows were almost twisted into knots.

The Feng Family lineage was thin, with Feng Yan being his only son.

Although he was strict most of the time, he truly cherished Feng Yan.

Otherwise, he would not have indulged Feng Yan's arrogant and conceited character.

However, seeing Feng Yan poisoned and almost in pain to the point of death, his heart was in turmoil.

"Lord Medicine King, how is it? Can my son's poison be cured?" The Feng Family Patriarch anxiously stepped forward to ask.

Medicine King was also perspiring cold sweat at this moment.

He had been researching this poison for several hours.

But he hadn't found any clue.

Not to mention finding an antidote.

He even found that just touching Feng Yan's body would cause him to be immediately attacked by the poison gas.

Such terrifying poison, he had never heard of, nor seen before.

"Alas, I am powerless against your son's poison. To save him, we can only find the person who poisoned him, as this person is too formidable," said Medicine King.

"Even you cannot find an antidote?" The Feng Family Patriarch exclaimed in shock.

"To solve a problem, one must find the one who caused it," the Medicine King sighed.

The Feng Family Patriarch was stunned and took two steps back.

"Father... that person is in Rashamon City, a young... a youth," Feng Yan spoke through his pain.

Upon hearing this, the Feng Family Patriarch immediately ordered, "Someone, go to Rashamon City at once, and invite that person here!"
