Chapter 4808

Sun Moon City

Lin Chong held the jade slip in his hand, his expression solemn.

“Emperor Lin, has something happened in Wuwang Land?”

Taoist Wuji asked.

“Taoist, Mr. Chen has killed the elder of Qianmen and the young master of Tangmen in Wuwang Land. He is in the spotlight, basking in unprecedented glory,” Lin Chong said.

“Isn’t that a good thing? With such a display of power, I doubt anyone will dare to make a move against Kai in secret,” Taoist Wuji replied with a slight smile.

“But now, Lian Sanmen has gathered all their top experts and is heading to Wuwang Land. If the Huo family joins them, their combined strength cannot be underestimated,” Lin Chong said with concern.

“Even if Lian Sanmen and the Huo family unite, there’s no need to worry—as long as Kai doesn’t provoke the Huofen Sect or the Four Nether Palaces,” Taoist Wuji said calmly.

“That’s true. Since Lian Sanmen and the Huo family want to play this game, my Sun Moon City will play along,” Lin Chong declared.

Then, he called out, “Someone!”

“Your Majesty!” A subordinate entered immediately.

“Gather all cultivators of the ninth rank of the Mahayana Realm and above. Prepare to leave for the Land of Unforeseen.”

“Yes!”

Before long, Sun Moon City’s top experts assembled. Led by Lin Chong and Taoist Wuji, they set off for the Land of Unforeseen.

Though the ladder to heaven had yet to descend, Lin Chong couldn’t afford to wait—he had to ensure Kai’s safety.

For a time, the Land of Unforeseen underwent a drastic shift. The number of cultivators surged, and they were all formidable masters.

Sensing the growing tension, the Huo family, who ruled over the Land of Unforeseen, began to tread cautiously.

“Have you found out why so many people are coming to Wuwang Land this year?”

Huo Zhenfeng, the head of the Huo family, asked with a frown.

Every time the Heavenly Ladder descended, the number of cultivators was never this high—especially now, when the Heavenly Ladder hadn’t even appeared yet. Whether it would descend to Wuwang Land at all remained uncertain.

Yet, a massive influx of cultivators had already arrived, making Huo Zhenfeng uneasy.

“Master, Kai killed three elders of Qianmen and Tang Xiaoyi, the young master of Tangmen, completely offending Lian Sanmen. In retaliation, Lian Sanmen has gathered their top experts and rushed to Wuwang Land to seek revenge.”

Steward Lu whispered.

“What? That Kai is too reckless! Does he not know fear?”

Huo Zhenfeng’s frown deepened as he tried to understand Kai’s actions.

“He’s just young and full of pride. He has gained fame in the Daoist sects, but in doing so, he has also attracted many enemies,” Steward Lu explained.

“Lian Sanmen won’t let this go. They have even suggested joining forces with our Huo family to eliminate that arrogant Kai.”

“Joining forces?” Huo Zhenfeng mused before asking, “Have you investigated the power backing Kai? A mere wandering cultivator wouldn’t dare act so boldly on his own.”

“Yes, we found out. He is backed by Lin Chong’s Sun Moon City. The princess of Sun Moon City is traveling with him, so it’s likely that Kai and the princess are romantically involved,” Steward Lu reported.

“No wonder! Without such backing, he wouldn’t dare act so arrogantly. So, Sun Moon City is behind him,” Huo Zhenfeng muttered, then asked, “Have the other forces arrived?”

“The Fire Sect has arrived, but the Four Nether Palaces have yet to make an appearance. However, there are many unfamiliar cultivators this time, and they’re quite strong. We haven’t identified which sect they belong to yet,” Steward Lu replied.

“It seems that this year’s Heavenly Ladder will be more complicated than usual. Issue an order—our Huo family will not participate in any conflicts, nor will we fight over resources in the Heavenly Ladder. Our only priority is maintaining order in the Land of Unforeseen.”

“As for Kai, no one from our family is to seek revenge on him. Let Lian Sanmen handle that. When Sun Moon City and Lian Sanmen clash, we can simply sit back and enjoy the spectacle.”

Huo Zhenfeng analyzed the situation and gave his orders decisively.

“Understood!” Steward Lu nodded and left.
