As the three Gold Cultivators retreated, a dozen or so figures emerged from the Imperial Palace on the mountaintop. Jiangcun was at their head. He gazed at the dozen tightly positioned figures above the dense forest, his eyes finally landing on Yu Zuo.
SWOOSH!
The sound of something tearing through the air rang out, continuous and unrelenting. It was three Artifact Cultivators manipulating their Lifebound Spiritual Artifacts, trying to pierce the golden light screen and see the true situation inside the Imperial Palace.
CLANG.
A sound like the striking of a Bronze Bell echoed as the three Lifebound Spiritual Artifacts were blocked by an invisible barrier.
Jiangcun didn't even glance at the three attacking Magical Artifacts. He looked toward the Xiao Shan Lord hundreds of miles away. It was obvious they planned to take a defensive stance and drag things out until the succession ceremony.
CLANG.
