Miao Dao nodded heavily and sighed: “And looking at the scale of this, I’m afraid there’s more than just one or two people undergoing the lightning tribulation together! From the direction that the lightning is striking, and the might of this storm, there should be at least three or more people this time.”

Pausing for a moment, he laughed coldly. “Don’t those people know that the lightning tribulation will become stronger the more people are involved? If it’s not because they haven’t failed yet, I would even say that those people are simply seeking death. Not mentioning the other stuff, just the might of that lightning tribulation is clearly already at the Saint Venerable level...”

“But to actually not fail despite such a powerful force, those people must have absolute confidence to think of using such an unwise method! Ah Jian, from the looks of it, this Tian Fa Forest’s strength... exceeds even our initial estimations! If all of them manage to pass this Heavenly Tribulation, we’ll have to reevaluate our strategy!”

Miao Jian’s expression was also exceedingly ugly. “Dao, what should we do if the three Holy Lands choose to disregard the bigger picture this time?”

Miao Dao’s face also turned ugly. Considering seriously for a moment, he said, “I believe that the three Holy Lands wouldn’t really disregard the bigger picture. However, it’s impossible for them to not create any hindrances. Their side is already irreconcilable with Jun Mo Xie’s side, and their enmity can be said to be impossible to resolve. If not for the War for Seizing the Heavens being so close and their strength is already insufficient, they would have already attacked Jun Mo Xie’s side long ago.

“So, although they would not go so far as to try to smash up this event, they would probably apply pressure in many areas, not allowing this Evil Monarch to have his way! The opening ceremony has an auspicious significance. If it doesn’t start off well, the influence of the Evil Monarch would not be as great as predicted. At least, it wouldn’t be as dazzling as the noontime’s sun like now... So, if both sides began fighting, the consequences will undoubtedly be very serious! At that time, our positions could become very awkward. Especially now that we’d seen for ourselves the strength of Jun Mo Xie’s side. The moment we make out choice, it would very possibly have a very far reaching effect on the future.”

An old man drifted over lightly like a gust of wind, and stood beside the two with a slight smile. “There’s no need to be overly worried about the actions of the three Holy Lands. After all, we will not be choosing to stand on the side of the three Holy Lands this time!” Pausing for a moment, he continued. “Of course, we won’t be standing on the Evil Monarch’s side either.”

Miao Xiao Miao hesitated for a moment and said, “En, but I’m afraid it would be quite difficult to maintain a neutral position anymore. Furthermore, an action like urging the tiger to devour the wolf is not necessarily beneficial, right? If the two sides are really intent on vying for hegemony over the continent, our Misty Illusory Manor would undoubtedly need to choose a side for support. If we simply watched coldly from the side, it would only gain the displeasure of both sides. No matter which side comes out the victor in the end, it wouldn’t be beneficial to the future development of our Misty Illusory Manor!”

Miao Xiao Miao naturally had her reason for speaking out, and her words were also very reasonable.

As the granddaughter of the Manor Lord, it was expected for her to know more of this kind of things. Although she knew that the Misty Illusory Manor could be considered to be self sufficient on the surface, but there was actually a considerable portion of resources which they still relied on the outside world for!

To get their hands on those resources, there was a need for them to have a certain amount of friendship with the main powers outside.

Previously, they had already worked with the three Holy Lands a few times and had built up a bit of relationship with them. The Seven Colored Holy Fruits that Qiao Ying had consumed was one such important trade.

The three Holy Lands had a monopoly on all those resources that the Misty Illusory Manor lacked. Although the Misty Illusory Manor was domineering, they could not ignore the outside world and live alone.

After all, although the three Holy Lands claimed to be separate from the worldly affairs, there were still countless large families with considerable strength that were affiliated with them!

When added together, the influence and things that they could affect were still extremely terrifying, enough to change the situation of the entire world outside!

And the will of these large and influential families could be completely controlled by the three Holy Lands. Thus, the ability to control the world was actually laying in the hands of the three Holy Lands. It was just that they had already become used to their position and no longer needed to use those powers. But if they decided to use these powers, it would result in a huge change in the world!

“Little lass Xiao Miao has worried overly. The points you mentioned are the core of the Misty Illusory Manor, so how would this old man not understand? Ultimately, it is naturally impossible to not choose a side.”

The old man looked at Miao Xiao Miao with praise as he smiled. “But for now, we don’t have to truly choose yet. Because, we will only be working with the side that wins in the end.”

There was still another sentence that the old man hadn’t said. Although it can’t be confirmed right now, but if Jun Mo Xie is Mo Jun Ye... There was a marriage agreement with the Misty Illusory Manor, but if he loses in this battle, the Misty Illusory Manor won’t choose him.

This matter concerned the ten thousand years future of the Misty Illusory Manor. It couldn’t be taken lightly and changed just because of personal feelings.

Miao Xiao Miao nodded in a somewhat confused manner. Although she had detected the contradictory words in the words of this Sixth Grandpa, she did not continue to pursue the topic. Because all along the way, she had sensed that these few elders seemed to be hiding something intentionally from her...

Miao Xiao Miao didn’t know what was going on, but she was not that interested in poking her nose into matters that were above her. Although she was the only granddaughter of the Manor Lord, she was still young. It wasn’t a big deal if the elders decide not to let her know about certain things. Besides, her main objective in this trip was to look for Jun Ye. That Evil Monarch fellow had nothing to do with her. It was better if they didn’t tell her; at least, she would get to travel leisurely without any troubles...

The Zhan Family’s Zhan Wu Yun had come with his brother Zhan Wu Feng and 12 other Saint level experts. At this time, they were standing silently behind him. Beside him, there were two Fourth level Saint Emperors who were here as his bodyguards. Although the combined strength of the two of them were not greater than Cao Guo Feng and the others when they worked together, it wasn’t inferior by much either...

The lineup that the Zhan Family had sent out this time was already sufficient to sweep through this world unrivalled—under normal circumstances!

If it was not because it was the opening ceremony of the Evil Monarch Manor, and a strong showing was required, and if not for the other purposes of the Zhan Family, Zhan Wu Yun would not have sent out such a large force.

But when they saw the dense lightning clouds that stretched for a hundred li in the sky, all of their faces turned slightly green with fright. The look of fear in their eyes was extremely obvious, even though they were not the ones undergoing the lightning tribulation...

The ferocity of this Heavenly Tribulation was so great that their own lightning tribulations were not even one percent as strong as this!

And this exceedingly fearsome Heavenly Tribulation actually carried on for an entire afternoon!

Miao Dao and the rest had also stopped on this mountain a thousand li away, for the entire duration! Only when night descended did they finally return to their tents.

There were 21 people from the Misty Illusory Manor in this trip. The Miao Family had Miao Xiao Miao, Miao Dao, Miao Jian, and the Sixth Elder Miao Zhan; the Zhan Family had 17 people, including Zhan Wu Yun, Zhan Wu Feng, the two Saint Emperor guards, and 12 Saint experts. The only person of the younger generation from the Zhan Family was the previously third ranked and now first ranked youth, Zhan Yu Ting.

In the Zhan Family’s Zhan Wu Yun’s heart, this Evil Monarch Manor opening ceremony was nothing but a simple ceremony for formality’s sake. It was a good opportunity for the young generation to broaden their views. Since the deaths of Zhan Yu Shu and Zhan Qing Feng had already become an unchangeable reality, they could only bring this Zhan Yu Ting, who had never seen the world, to come out and gain more experience. After all, he now carried the hope and future of the entire Zhan Family.

In a country of the blind, a one-eyed man would be king.

They had already arrived there early noon.

Although there was nothing very unique about this area, it was actually the place where the Misty Illusory Manor and the three Holy Lands joined up whenever they had to meet up and go somewhere together. For thousands of years, this had already become a habit.

So although the Misty Illusory Manor had already reached early, they were waiting for the other three forces.

“Grandpas, why aren’t we moving anymore? Isn’t there still a bit of distance till we reach there?” Miao Xiao Miao asked in a confused tone. They had rushed here like the speed of lightning all the way, so why did they suddenly stop? From the looks of it, there was still over a thousand li until they reached the Evil Monarch Manor. Although with their speed, this distance could be covered in just a few short days, it was still quite far away.

Along the way, whenever Miao Xiao Miao passed by a place with people, she would always ask about Mo Jun Ye, seeking to find his trial. However, it was destined that no one would know about this person who did not exist at all. Miao Xiao Miao had travelled with endless hope in her heart, but it grew into greater worry as she went along...

“Little lass, this is the first time you’ve been to Xuan Xuan Continent, and you naturally wouldn’t know. We’re waiting here for the three Holy Lands to meet up with them and go forward together.”

Miao Dao looked at Miao Xiao Miao and sighed lightly. Although the Manor Lord had mentioned some words to them, and there were even some biases in his words, but if this Tian Fa’s Evil Monarch’s faction was too weak, it would instead become a burden to the Misty Illusory Manor! At that time, Miao Xiao Miao’s love affair might have to be sacrificed...

Afterall, the happiness of a little girl was truly insignificant compared to the entire Misty Illusory Manor...

The only hope... was that Mo Jun Ye was not Jun Mo Xie! If that was the case, all the problems would be easily solved... the Misty Illusory Manor could continue working with the three Holy Lands, and they could force the Evil Monarch out of the game together. No matter what, that would be an easier choice than joining hands with the Evil Monarch Manor to destroy the three Holy Lands... And Miao Xiao Miao would also be able to obtain her happiness, while the Misty Illusory Manor would not lose their only legendary prodigy with the Free and Natural Physique...
