Chapter 1108

: Immortal Realm’s Adjudication
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
As the combat concluded, the nine experts from the Evergreen Immortal Empire were defeated. Their bodies were covered in bloody wounds, causing everyone to sigh. Seems like for this generation, the juniors from the Evergreen Immortal Empire were clearly inferior compared to others.
But no one could be blamed for this, after that internal warfare, the royal line of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor didn’t produce many descendants. This, compared to the Skymist Immortal Empire who had been pulling strings behind the shadows, adding to the chaos in the Evergreen Immortal Empire in relative safety, also the Paragon Sword Sect who has been quietly developing for many years, their foundations were naturally more solid and stable than the Evergreen Immortal Empire.
From a certain perspective, Skymist Jiang’s words weren’t wrong. The juniors of the younger generation did indicate the strength of the empire to some extent. If the juniors of a power were clearly stronger compared to the other major powers, it indicated that the power the juniors are from, definitely has an incomparably deep foundation.
Naturally, the battle on the platform might not be able to clearly showcase the complete strength of juniors. But at the very least, some information could still be gleaned from it.
The nine experts of the Paragon Sword Sect stood in a row and clasped their hands towards the experts from the Evergreen Immortal Empire,
Thanks for the guidance.


A complete victory, as expected of the Paragon Sword Sect, a supreme sect that focuses fully on the sword. To think that they even produced a sword king in this generation. In comparison, the Evergreen Immortal Empire is truly weaker.
Skymist Jiang calmly spoke.
Given your empire’s current level of strength, I’m shocked that Prince Longhao actually dares to deny the agreement made those years back then.


Sparring is sparring, but the agreement is another matter altogether. Isn’t it a little too over the top that you, Prince Jiang, keeps lumping them together?
Evergreen Longhao’s voice turned cold, filled with unhappiness.

Why can’t I lump them together? Don’t tell me that after the period of chaotic internal warfare, the Evergreen Immortal Empire has even forgotten the rules of the immortal realms?
Skymist Jiang replied just as coldly.
In the vast immortal realms, our Eastern Regions naturally have its own set of rules. If the Evergreen Immortal Empire wants to break the agreement, my Skymist Immortal Empire has the right to invite all the other peak powers of the Eastern Regions for an adjudication, carrying out the agreement. If Prince Longhao has forgotten this old rule, you can go back and consult your royal father about it.


This rule is tens of thousands of years old, you even want to bring it out to threaten my Evergreen Immortal Empire?
Evergreen Longhao’s countenance gradually turned sharp. His Evergreen Immortal Empire governed a complete territory under them but now the Skymist Immortal Empire actually wanted to use some lame rules established several tens of thousands of years ago as a weapon to bite them? To gather the other peak powers of the Eastern Region and force the Evergreen Immortal Empire to obey the ‘agreement’? How ridiculous.
No wonder they wanted to spar against the younger generations of the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Seems like they were long prepared.

Seems like Prince Longhao also knows of this rule. Could it be that our two empires would enter war because you choose to break the agreement? This would only be a catastrophe for both our empires. The best resolution is to gather the other peak powers and allow them to judge. I believe that the other powers of the Eastern Region would judge fairly of course.
Skymist Jiang slowly spoke. Ever since they arrived at the Evergreen’s royal capital, they have been setting up their schemes step by step, forcing the Evergreen Immortal Empire to dance to their tune. It was clear that this was a meticulous and diabolical plan.

Senior what does the immortal realm’s adjudication mean?
Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to the immortal king beside him as he asked.

This is something that existed many many years ago. In countless years back then when the immortal realms were united and governed by one person, all the major powers would listen to the ancient emperor who dominated the entire era, with no one daring not to comply with his commands. But the immortal realms were simply too vast, the ancient emperors all sought after an even higher level of cultivation and basically wouldn’t have time to govern the immortal realms. In the end, it became the norm for the peak powers of certain areas to govern the weaker ones and there would occasionally be some conflicts. If there was a prior agreement, in order to prevent all-out chaos from erupting, the ancient emperors allowed the ruling that the peak powers of that particular region would have the power to perform the adjudication, granting them the authority to decide the direction things would unfold in.

The immortal king continued explaining,
But at the end, the immortal realms were divided and unified again and again. Finally, as all ancient emperors vanished, the immortal realms were divided and became the current immortal realm you see now. The last ancient emperor era was already something several tens of thousands of years ago, and so was the last adjudication performed. After that, nothing has ever required an adjudication since.


In the past era, the ancient emperors implemented this because of fairness. But now in the current era, there no longer are ancient emperor characters. The Skymist Immortal Empire is gathering all the major powers in this area because it wanted to overwhelm the Evergreen Immortal Empire by force and pressure. In fact, these other powers shouldn’t even be in the picture, this is clearly disrespect to the Evergreen Immortal Empire.
Qin Wentian raged.

That’s what is going on exactly. The Skymist Immortal Empire wanted to take matters in their own hands and called for an adjudication. If this succeeds, the princesses of the Evergreen Immortal Empire would be taken away and from now on, the Evergreen Immortal Empire would become nothing but a joke in the eyes of everyone.
That immortal king continued transmitting his voice over.

What if the Evergreen Immortal Empire refused to accept the adjudication result?
Qin Wentian asked.

Those with the right to take part in the adjudication are all peak powers of that particular region. Since we are located in the East, all peak powers of the Eastern Region would have a say in this. If more than 50% agreed to it, the Evergreen Immortal Empire would have no choice but to follow through. If the Evergreen Immortal Empire refused to accept the result, they can proceed with an adjudication battle. Those who agree will battle against those who disagree. The two sides can decide if they want it to be a battle at the immortal-foundation level, the immortal king level, or even the immortal emperor level. For example, if Matriarch Ji and the Evergreen Immortal Emperor reject that, while the Violet Emperor, Skymist Immortal Emperor, and Paragon Sword Emperor accepted, both Matriarch Ji and the Evergreen Immortal Emperor have the right to proceed with the adjudication battle. If they win, the agreement would be nulled and voided. But if they lost, they would have to pay double of what the initial agreement is asking for.

The immortal king continued,
If the Evergreen Immortal Empire lost the adjudication battle and still refused to honor the agreement, this is equal to them issuing war against all the other peak powers. Naturally, the Evergreen Immortal Empire could skip the step of the adjudication battle and just announce war directly. But usually, nobody on either side would be willing for there to be a war. Even for the Skymist Immortal Empire, the commotion and chaos caused by a war would be too great. They might be stronger than the Evergreen Immortal Empire but they wouldn’t have the confidence to say for sure they can annihilate the Evergreen Immortal Empire completely.


In that case, the battle today is merely the battle of the vanguards? The Skymist Immortal Empire not only suppressed the Evergreen Immortal Empire, they even joined forces with the Paragon Sword Sect to show their strength, wanting to cow the Evergreen Immortal Empire into honoring the agreement.
Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. The immortal king by the side nodded. This battle was merely a part of a well-layered scheme.

It is still not your turns to decide on the matters of our Evergreen Immortal Empire.
At this moment, a tyrannical voice suddenly thundered out, originating from above the imperial palace. That invisible force generated an oppressive pressure that bore down on everyone. The words should be spoken by an immortal emperor character.

That’s right. This rule was set back during the era of the ancient emperors, yet the Skymist Immortal Empire wishes to take this out and use it? How laughable.
Evergreen Longhao also spoke coldly.
Let me repeat it again. The agreement made that year cannot represent our Evergreen Immortal Empire. That agreement is completely ineffectual.


Is that so?
Skymist Jiang laughed coldly. With a wave of his hand, a scroll flew up into the air. This scroll radiated resplendent light and floated there as it slowly unfolded. The gazes of everyone turned over, the words on the scroll sparkled gleamingly.

I’m sure the content of this scroll isn’t unfamiliar to the nobility and Prince Longhao am I right? Look at the seal at the bottom, that’s the imperial seal of your immortal empire. Now you all want to cancel the agreement verbally? Do you think it is possible?
Skymist Jiang unhurriedly continued. This scroll was something given to them by the contender against the Evergreen Immortal Emperor those years back then.

Everyone should have seen the agreement clearly, right?
Skymist Jiang waved his hand as the scroll flew back to his hand. His eyes turned to the other experts as he continued,
Do you all believe that the Evergreen Immortal Empire should honor the agreement?

Many characters of the major powers all evaded Skymist Jiang’s gaze. This was a battle between two great immortal empires. They didn’t dare to express their views or interfere in this lightly.

Since there is an agreement made before, the Evergreen Immortal Empire should naturally keep their word.
An expert from the Solarsky Mountain spoke.

That’s right, since there’s an agreement as the proof. The Evergreen Immortal Empire should honor it as it is also a part of our Eastern Regions.
The immortal king from the Paragon Sword Sect also expressed his attitude, formally confirming that they stood together with the Skymist Immortal Empire. Most probably, the Skymist Immortal Empire must have offered them some benefits.
Evergreen Longhao’s expression turned incredibly unsightly. He turned his gaze to the other two peak powers only to hear some experts from the Sky Demon Palace laughing,
I think the Skymist Immortal Empire is right. The Evergreen Immortal Empire should honor the agreement.


Seems like all of you are truly enjoying the drama.
Evergreen Longhao’s voice turned colder and colder. The Paragon Sword Sect, Sky Demon Palace, Skymist Immortal Empire, Taihua Immortal Dynasty and even the subordinates of the Violet Emperor were all in the royal capital at the moment. These people were sufficient to form the adjudication of the immortal realms.
To these powers, they naturally were more than happy to watch the conflict unfold between the two immortal empires. If war truly erupted, it would be extremely interesting as both the empires would diminish in strength.

Although the agreement is in place, its validity can be questioned. Princess Qing`er and Princess Glaze are both considered extremely outstanding juniors. Also, my Taihua Immortal Dynasty also has plenty of elite juniors. If the Evergreen Immortal Empire has any plans to enter a marriage alliance with my Taihua Immortal Dynasty, we would surely select excellent young men to be the marriage partners of the two princesses…
The immortal king from the Taihua Immortal Dynasty smiled, his words causing the people from the Skymist and Evergreen Immortal Empires to curse how wily this old fox is.

Both my royal father and the White Emperor naturally have plans regarding the marriage of the two princesses. The two princesses would also possess the rights to choose their own partners. They wouldn’t become sacrifices of our empire.
Evergreen Longhao icily spoke. The immortal king of the Taihua Immortal Dynasty laughed,
Since Prince Longhao has already put it this way, just pretend that I never said anything before.

The atmosphere of the immortal banquet turned heavier. Seeing the current situation, the Skymist Immortal Empire has already gathered sufficient people to launch the so-call immortal realm’s adjudication. If the Evergreen Immortal Empire refused to honor the agreement, would a war truly break out, causing chaos and commotion across the Eastern Regions?
