'This brat sensed my killing intent and turned into devil qi to escape.' Heavenly Lady Qiang lowered her palm and sighed as she walked down the God Execution Stage.

Below the God Execution Stage, her chamber had been destroyed, leaving only a door standing there. The door hadn't been destroyed because Heavenly Lady Qiang had sealed it.

Heavenly Lady Qiang came to the door and looked at it for a moment before shaking her head and leaving.

Behind him, the door creaked and collapsed into pieces.

Her seal was still worn down.

"Why are you frowning?" Fang Ziyan looked at Heavenly Lady Qiang and asked carefully.

Heavenly Lady Qiang sighed and told him about Qin Mu's idea. "Even though I know he has ill intentions, I'm still tempted to bring the God Execution Stage to Xuandu. However, I don't know where the pit he dug is. How worrying."

Fang Ziyan thought about it and said, "Goddess, when Celestial Venerable Mu talks to you, he only talks about benefits and not disadvantages. Goddess, if you think about this, you can avoid disaster."

Heavenly Lady Qiang's eyes lit up, and she praised him. "You are indeed smart. This is a good idea. Maybe I won't have to jump into the pit. If I bring the God Execution Stage to Xuandu and use the baleful aura to raise my divine knives, no one will stop me. If I stab two divine knives into Heaven Duke's body and steal his qi and blood, I'll be offending Ancestral God King."

Fang Ziyan said, "Ancestral God King may be extremely strong, but his abilities aren't top-notch among the ten Celestial Venerables."

Heavenly Lady Qiang smiled. "That's true. Even if Ancestral God King wants to fight with me, he can't beat me. The only problem now is whether the other Celestial Venerables will stop me. One Ancestral God King is nothing to worry about, but with the other Celestial Venerables, I have to think about it."

Fang Ziyan's gaze flickered as she said, "Goddess, will the other Celestial Venerables stop you or Ancestral God King?"

Heavenly Lady Qiang chuckled. "Zi Yan, you are indeed smart! The other Celestial Venerables are definitely guarding against Ancestral God King! Ancestral God King is the son of Heaven Duke. If he obtains the power of Heaven Duke, he will definitely be the strongest in the world, and it won't be a problem for him to cultivate to the Celestial Heavens Realm! The others are guarding against him, and they will most likely ask for equal benefits. This gives me a chance."

She smiled slightly. "Once the divine knife is refined, the ten Celestial Venerables are nothing to worry about. By then, it will be too late for them to notice me!"

She was in high spirits, and with a flick of her sleeves, she smacked the air, causing it to rumble. 'Celestial Venerable Mu thought that he had dug a deep pit in the moat for me, but he didn't expect that he would fulfill my wish! When that time comes, this little fellow's expression will definitely be marvelous!'

Fang Ziyan said respectfully, "Although Celestial Venerable Mu is cunning and an old fox, he's still far inferior compared to Goddess."

Heavenly Lady Qiang couldn't help but smile.

A trail of devil qi escaped far away from the God Execution Stage. As expected, the devil qi condensed and Qin Mu walked out from the black smoke. The black smoke followed him and swarmed into his body, quickly vanishing.

'People are greedy. Heavenly Lady Qiang definitely won't be able to sit still. In the battle of Xuandu, she will definitely fight Ancestral God King for Heaven Duke's corporeal body. However, Heavenly Lady Qiang probably didn't expect that it wasn't just Ancestral God King who had his eyes on Heaven Duke's corporeal body, but also Celestial Venerable Hong!'

Qin Mu raised his head and saw that more than half of the celestial heavens had already descended into the ancestral court. It had probably only happened in the past ten days. He thought to himself, 'Celestial Venerable Hong will never let Heaven Duke lose his corporeal body. Celestial Venerable Hong is the real old fox. As long as Heavenly Lady Qiang makes a move, she won't be able to escape his trap!'

Eliminating Heaven Duke would definitely be an unimaginably fierce battle. Qin Mu didn't know how many of the ten Celestial Venerables would be mobilized, but Celestial Venerable Hao probably wouldn't.

Although Celestial Venerable Hao had recovered quite a bit, he wasn't at his peak yet.

Even if Celestial Venerable Xiao was exiled, she wouldn't appear.

As for the other Celestial Venerables, Celestial Venerable Gong, Celestial Venerable Huo, Heavenly Lady Yan, God Emperor Lang Xuan, and Celestial Venerable Xu, how many of them would appear?

'Celestial Venerable Xu won't go. The Xuandu's Heavenly Dao restricts her Great Dao of Youdu unless she can unify the Heavenly Dao and Great Dao of Youdu. She will most likely stay in the celestial heavens to guard against the sneak attacks of Founding Emperor and the other three ancient gods of the four poles.'

"Heavenly Lady Yan has the support of the ancient god of taiji and is very powerful. It's hard to say if she will go."

"God Emperor Lang Xuan has obtained a dried prehistoric Dao fruit. His abilities have improved greatly, so he will most likely be going this time. This is the best time for him to show his prowess."

"The eleventh Celestial Venerable, Shi Qiluo, will definitely go! He has just become a Celestial Venerable, so he has to seize this chance to establish his power. Otherwise, it will be hard to convince the masses!"

'Celestial Venerable Huo will definitely go! After all, he abhors evil and hates the ancient gods the most.'

"It's hard to say if Celestial Venerable Gong will go."

Qin Mu pondered for a moment. Earth Count couldn't go to Xuandu, so he couldn't ally with Heaven Duke. Furthermore, Earth Count probably knew Heaven Duke's plan, so he definitely wouldn't interfere in this matter.

The only ones who could interfere were Founding Emperor, Lang Lang, and Celestial Venerable Yue. With the power of these three people and the three deities of the ancient gods, they might be able to put up a fight.

However, the ten Celestial Venerables of the celestial heavens had the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu, which restricted the three deities of the ancient gods, preventing them from leaving their territories.

Therefore, only Founding Emperor, Lang Lang, and Celestial Venerable Yue could fight.

'Maybe I can set up another battlefield and attack the celestial heavens! I can use this chance to get rid of the other Celestial Venerables that are left in the celestial heavens. At the very least, I have to get rid of Celestial Venerable Hao! However, if that's the case, I have to give up on Heaven Duke. If I get rid of Celestial Venerable Xu, I will anger Earth Count…'

Qin Mu's heart sank. Giving up Heaven Duke in exchange for Celestial Venerable Hao and Celestial Venerable Xu's deaths and losing Earth Count as an ally was something he couldn't accept.

'In the battle of Xuandu, it's hard for Founding Emperor, Lang, and Celestial Venerable Yue to protect themselves! Therefore, whether Heaven Duke can be saved will depend on Celestial Venerable You!'

The corners of Qin Mu's eyes twitched. The Great Dao that Celestial Venerable You was proficient in was also the Great Dao of Youdu. Letting him go to Xuandu would greatly suppress his Dao. In Xuandu, he would face great danger.

This was why Qin Mu judged that Celestial Venerable Xu wouldn't go to Xuandu, and it was also why Celestial Venerable You didn't go there.

'I can't let Celestial Venerable You take the risk.'

The sky of the ancestral court gradually darkened. Qin Mu composed himself and walked towards the hundred thousand black mountains while thinking to himself, 'If he goes to Xuandu, his life will be in danger.'

Suddenly, the will-o '-the-wisps in front of him flickered, and a paper boat faintly appeared, floating in front of Qin Mu.

Qin Mu stopped and saw an elder carrying a lantern on the paper boat. The lantern's light shone towards him.

The elder disembarked from the paper boat and anchored the boat. He sat under the light beside the boat and folded the paper humans and paper horses quietly.

Qin Mu walked forward and walked past the paper boat, ignoring him.

"Mu."

The fingers of that Elder Messenger of Death were very nimble, and a paper horse quickly formed in his hands. He said indifferently, "You are very lacking in manpower now, right? Tian Shu, Luo Wushuang, Zhe Huali, and Heaven Knife have been caught by me, and Earth Count is entertaining them. Tian Shu is clamoring to leave, saying that if the four of them work together with you, they can unleash the power of the thirty heavens of the knife path. Even though they can't defeat a Celestial Venerable, they can still save their lives."

Qin Mu stopped behind the ship with a complicated gaze. "I have cultivated the battle technique of knife path with them, so it does indeed have great power."

'The one with the lowest cultivation is at the God Execution Stage Realm. They are nothing in front of a Celestial Venerable. Even a strong practitioner on the Emperor's Throne like Tian Shu would be helpless in front of me.'

Elder Messenger of Death didn't raise his head and stared at the paper human cutout that was about to be folded. "You even invited them, so why didn't you invite me? Are you looking down on me?"

Qin Mu shook his head and said, "Your abilities are very strong. I also want to invite you, but since you cultivate the Great Dao of Youdu, you can't unleash much of your abilities in Xuandu."

"You invited Founding Emperor, Celestial Venerable Yue, and Divine King Lang."

Elder Messenger of Death blew gently, and the paper human and paper horse instantly came to life. "Among the Nine Celestial Venerables of Dragon Han, I admire Brother Yu the most, and Celestial Venerable Yue is the one who has the best relationship with me. However, do you know who I talk to the most?"

He raised his head and looked at Qin Mu on the other side of the paper boat. "It's you."

"I've known Celestial Venerable Yue for a million years, and I've only spoken less than ten sentences to her. She was always the one who said it, and I listened."

His wrinkled face revealed a smile. "But every time I see you, I say a lot. Do you know why?"

Qin Mu turned around.

"Celestial Venerable Yue is a woman, and I can't say anything to a woman. Celestial Venerable Yu is a big brother, and I respect him in my heart and never say it out loud. I can't be bothered with the other Celestial Venerables."

Elder Messenger of Death stood up. "Only you are different. I treat you as a friend that I can entrust my life to, Dao friend! You have nothing to do with Celestial Venerable Yu, yet you are willing to risk your life for him, offending Celestial Venerable Hao, Yuanmu, Celestial Emperor, and the celestial heavens for him!"

"From then on, with just a word from you, I could wait for you in Youdu for a million years just to wait for your return and revive Celestial Venerable Yu! And you did it!"

"Now, with just a word from you, I can kill my way to Xuandu with you!"

It was the first full moon of the year of the pig, and it was the first full moon night of the year. It was filled with silver, and the words were all congratulatory words!
