CHAPTER 631: CHAPTER 398: THE IMMORTAL COURT BANQUET, FENG DU’S THOUGHTS

Could it be that he truly intends to lead the Witch Clan to fight against this yet-to-be-established Immortal Court to the bitter end?

This thought involuntarily crossed Xing Tian’s mind.

If that’s truly the case, it might indeed be better to follow what the Fengdu Ancestor Witch said: the Twelve Ancestor Witches leading the entire Witch Clan to fight against the original Immortal Court to the death.

At this moment, outside the Fengdu Palace, Wu Xian’s voice resounded.

"Wu Xian of the Witch Clan requests an audience with the Fengdu Ancestor Witch."

The voice penetrated into the Fengdu Palace, interrupting Xing Tian’s thoughts.

At the same time, Xing Tian glanced towards the outside of the palace, wondering what could have brought Wu Xian here.

However, Emperor Fengdu glanced at Xing Tian inside the palace, then raised a hand lightly to break the barrier restriction of the palace.

As the barrier disappeared, Wu Xian did not dare to delay and immediately rushed into the palace.

Before he arrived, his voice had already come through.

"Please, Fengdu Ancestor Witch, save our tribe’s Xingtian Great Witch!"

When Wu Xian arrived, he found Xingtian Great Witch standing with his battleaxe in the hall, and he couldn’t help but say in confusion.

"Xingtian Great Witch, you actually did not go to Penglai Immortal Island."

As Wu Xian spoke, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Xingtian Great Witch is currently the mightiest being within the Witch Clan, and Wu Xian naturally needed to consult him on matters.

Hence, Wu Xian did not conceal the matter of going to the Purple Cloud Palace this time.

But who would have thought that upon hearing about the re-establishment of the Heavenly Court, Xingtian Great Witch would become extremely furious, wield his battleaxe, and head straight for Penglai Immortal Island.

At that moment, Wu Xian’s heart surged with intense regret.

However, Wu Xian also reacted immediately, knowing that with his own strength, he couldn’t stop Xing Tian, so he came to Fengdu Palace at once to seek the help of the Fengdu Ancestor Witch.

But he didn’t expect, why would Xingtian Great Witch, who was heading to Penglai Immortal Island, appear in Fengdu Palace?

Moreover, his expression was calm, and the battleaxe in his hand hung down with no trace of anger towards the rebuilding of the Immortal Court.

What on earth happened in this Fengdu Palace?

Wu Xian could not help but wonder.

Unfortunately, neither from the expressions of Xingtian Great Witch nor Emperor Fengdu could Wu Xian glean any clues.

But indeed, he relaxed, for Xingtian Great Witch’s demeanor must have been due to Emperor Fengdu’s intervention.

At this moment, Xing Tian inwardly thanked the sound that echoed deeply in his soul from the Fengdu Ancestor Witch.

It was because of that sound that he could keep his emotions in check and respond calmly to Wu Xian’s words.

After hearing Fengdu Ancestor Witch explain the power of Hao Tian and the Turquoise Pool, he understood that what Wu Xian termed as life-saving was not an exaggeration.

However, now Xing Tian was not paying heed to Wu Xian but instead looked at Emperor Fengdu and asked again, "Fengdu Ancestor Witch, is there no other way? Must we allow the Immortal Court to be rebuilt?"

"If that’s the case, did not the sacrifice of our tribe’s Twelve Ancestor Witches go in vain?"

Xing Tian’s expression was calm, questioning steadily without haste.

He truly did not reconcile, why must the Witch Clan hide in the Netherworld while the Immortal Court could re-establish on the Primordial Continent?

Emperor Fengdu did not immediately answer Xing Tian’s various questions but instead looked up for a moment before continuing.

"The re-establishment of the Immortal Court was proposed by the Three Pure Ones, agreed upon by Daoist Ancestor Hong Jun, and consented by all Saints within the Primordial lands, with the Immortal Court undertaking all affairs of the Primordial Continent. How could it be something our Netherworld could change?"

"Even if you by chance find a way to wield your battleaxe to slay Hao Tian and the Turquoise Pool, the Immortal Court will still re-establish; it only needs to find a new Immortal Emperor."

"And you will bear the karma of slaying the Immortal Emperor, potentially implicating the entire Witch Clan."

Upon hearing these words, even in his current state, Xing Tian couldn’t help but be startled.

And Fengdu Ancestor Witch, after a slight pause, continued speaking.

"As for whether our sacrifices were in vain, I can assure you very clearly."

"The Twelve Ancestor Witches did not sacrifice in vain; the Immortal Court once led by East King has utterly perished."

"Though the Immortal Court may be rebuilt, it bears no relation to the former East King."

Wu Xian, on the side, also tried to persuade.

"In the past, our Witch Clan on the Primordial Continent had conflicts with that East King, with indelible contradictions."

"Now, our Witch Clan resides in the Netherworld, and the Immortal Court exists on the Primordial Continent; this Immortal Court is not the one of the past, and there is no conflict between us."

"In such circumstances, why should our Witch Clan unnecessarily strengthen our adversaries?"

Xingtian Great Witch understood that regardless of the circumstances, he could not prevent the establishment of the Immortal Court, and finally convinced himself to abandon the thoughts in his heart.

He slowly said, "I understand, Fengdu Ancestor Witch."

As soon as his words fell, the battleaxe in his hand disappeared.

At this moment, only then did Wu Xian truly relax.

Seated on the throne, Emperor Fengdu nodded lightly, continuing to speak, "Actually, the re-establishment of the Immortal Court is not necessarily a bad thing for our Witch Clan; it might even be considered a good thing."

A good thing?

Xingtian Great Witch and Wu Xian exchanged glances, unable to fathom what good could come of it.

Even Wu Xian, who refrained from attacking the Immortal Court based on rationality, emotionally wished the Immortal Court could not rebuild.

But why did the Fengdu Ancestor Witch say this is a good thing?

Emperor Fengdu paid no heed to their current sentiments and continued to speak at his own pace.
