Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates
Chapter 1516 - 1499: Subjugating the Ice and Snow Palace
What!
Xiao Ye’s words resonated throughout the main hall, instantly freezing the expressions of all the high-level experts of the Ice and Snow Palace, their raised wine glasses slightly trembling in their hands.
The entire main hall plunged into a deathly silence.
The two Half-step Emperors of the Ice and Snow Palace were similarly stunned.
"What? Still not clear?"
"Back when I participated in the Ice and Snow Palace’s son-in-law selection competition, overpowering the Four Great Emperor’s Sons and the hidden forces’ geniuses to win first place, did any of you stand up and speak a fair word for me when the Ice and Snow Palace Master refused to acknowledge my status?"
Xiao Ye drank a cup of wine and spoke lightly.
Jin Shui and Jin Feng, the two grey-robed Half-step Emperors, were left speechless by Xiao Ye’s question, their faces awkward, and could only maintain silence.
After all, how could they have anticipated back then that Xiao Ye would rise against all odds under the vengeance of the Iron Blood Emperor Domain?
"Since you didn’t, what qualifies you now to stand up, speak on behalf of the Ice and Snow Palace for me, and ask me to reconcile with the Ice and Snow Palace?"
Xiao Ye asked once more.
He wasn’t a villain, but neither was he a soft-hearted person.
Considering Bing Ya and Huang Taiji, he had already lent a hand once, yet these people were still so clueless, daring to use such a method to seek his forgiveness?
Is this even possible?
This approach greatly repulsed him!
"Master Xiao Ye..." The Ice and Snow Palace Master gave a wry smile.
It seemed reconciling with Xiao Ye was impossible.
The crisis posed by the Ultimate Palace at the gates of the Ice and Snow Palace had been temporarily resolved, but without mending relations with Xiao Ye, the Ice and Snow Palace would remain avoided by all of Central State, and the Ultimate Palace would still choose to target them.
The elders of the Ice and Snow Palace all had expressions of despair and regret, feeling torn within.
"Master Xiao Ye, I was the first to oppose you and the Holy Daughter initially. If you want to blame someone, blame me."
"I leave myself to your disposition, even if you wish to kill me, I will have no grievance. Please do not hold a grudge against the Ice and Snow Palace."
The beautiful woman, Wang Tao, trembled, her eyes red and her emotions fervent.
"What use is killing you?"
"Don’t overestimate yourself."
Xiao Ye lightly shook his head, took hold of Bing Ya’s jade-like hand, greeted Huang Taiji, and prepared to leave.
"Alas..."
Bing Ya sighed inwardly.
Originally, she did want to find an opportunity to have the Ice and Snow Palace reconcile with Xiao Ye, but now it seemed impossible.
"However..."
"I can give you Ice and Snow Palace an opportunity to join us in the Wuji Sect and become a branch force."
Noticing Bing Ya’s expression, Xiao Ye paused, turned back, and spoke indifferently as he looked around the entire hall.
"Become a branch force of the Wuji Sect?"
Bing Ya was momentarily stunned by these words, then her face broke into a smile of delight, gratefully looking at Xiao Ye, her heart filled with sweetness.
She could tell that Xiao Ye had changed his mind naturally for her sake.
The Ice and Snow Palace was a first-class force in Central State, and also had two Half-step Emperors. Becoming a branch of the Wuji Sect would naturally greatly enhance the overall strength of the Wuji Sect.
Moreover, the Ice and Snow Palace would be under the protection of the Wuji Sect, a mutually beneficial outcome indeed.
Boom! Boom!
In the midst of the astonishment of the martial artists in the hall, two terrifying Half-step Emperor auras surged upward, directly lifting the entire main hall into the air, turning all furniture into dust.
The Ice and Snow Palace Master and elders all retreated wildly into the air, their breaths becoming labored as they looked with horror at the two grey-robed figures soaring into the sky.
"Xiao Ye!"
"Don’t push it!"
"You only helped us repel the martial artists of the Ultimate Palace. Even if you hadn’t helped, my brother and I would have soon acted to repel the invaders, perhaps even kill the Half-step Emperors of the Ultimate Palace, protecting the Ice and Snow Palace effectively."
"You want to use this to coerce us into changing masters? Dream on!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Jin Feng and Jin Shui, the two Half-step Emperors, stood above the Heavenly Dome, eyes blazing as they glared at Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye’s earlier words were unmistakably an attempt to make their Ice and Snow Palace submit to the Wuji Sect, making them subordinate, a tremendous insult for a sect on the True Spirit Continent.
Not to mention, the Ice and Snow Palace was a first-class power in Central State, renowned and prestigious, making this naturally unacceptable for them.
"Am I pushing it?"
Xiao Ye’s long hair flowed as he laughed coldly.
What a bunch of stubborn old fools!
If reasoning won’t work, then I’ll just speak with my fists.
After all, conquering the Ice and Snow Palace would be greatly beneficial for the Wuji Sect.
Boom!
Behind Xiao Ye appeared a vast Emperor Realm, its immense aura sweeping the surroundings, from which a Half-step Emperor’s physical body flew out, sitting cross-legged in mid-air.
Clatter!
With the injection of Xiao Ye’s immense Emperor’s Martial Intent, the physical body erupted with a terrifying Half-step Emperor suppression.
"Roar!"
Little White, already attuned to Xiao Ye’s thoughts, let out a beastly roar that shattered the clouds, shook mountains and rivers, its form expanding into an enormous ferocious beast, exuding an unmistakable Fierce Beast Supreme power.
"Demon God Domain."
Xiao Ye murmured softly, as he simultaneously activated the One Thought Flower Invincible secret technique and the Four Emperor Skills, his combat power soaring, causing the heavens and earth to respond, countless anomalies descended, engulfing the entire Ice and Snow Palace in violent turmoil.
Xiao Ye seemed to transform into a Divine figure, standing atop the Nine Heavens, his eyes radiating divine brilliance, his True Martial Physique seizing the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi of the entire Ice and Snow Palace.
The three Half-step Emperor auras shattered the Heavenly Dome, crushing everything, causing the ground to shake and the sun and moon to dim, capable of turning everything to dust.
All the martial artists in the Ice and Snow Palace were frightened out of their wits.
Under the pressure of the Half-step Emperor level, they couldn’t muster any war intent.
"Since you believe that with your protection, the Ice and Snow Palace can be safe, then today I, Xiao, will ensure that your Ice and Snow Palace loses its Half-emperor."
"Choose for yourselves."
Xiao Ye stood in the Demon God Domain, confronting the two Half-step Emperors, Jin Shui and Jin Feng, overwhelmingly.
"This..."
Jin Feng and Jin Shui, the two Half-step Emperors, trembled lightly, their pupils dilating in shock.
My god!
Xiao Ye had three Half-step Emperor-level combat powers at hand; if they fought, they would undoubtedly lose.
After all, although they were Half-step Emperors, their strength wasn’t particularly outstanding at this level.
Upon realizing this, Jin Feng and Jin Shui clenched their fists, their expressions stiff, unsure of what to do.
"Master Xiao Ye, we... we of the Ice and Snow Palace, are willing to submit to the Wuji Sect!"
The Ice and Snow Palace Master flew over, speaking with a wry smile.
