Chapter 390 - Sword Emperor Reborn (1/2)

“The number one of the Northern Wilderness, Zhou Xuanji, has died. From today onwards, I will be the ruler of the mortal realm!” Spirit Sovereign Yan’s voice sounded out, sounding incredibly overbearing, like a god giving orders.

The human race was infuriated, and all of the cities were sent into an uproar.

“Despicable!”

“Even the Sword Emperor died… could it be that no one can defeat him?”

“He comes from the Upper Realm and is an immortal god… how can we defeat him?”

“The human race is going to perish.”

“The heavens are not just; why are we being treated like this?”

Terror and despair spread through the human race. In just a moment, the human race’s Empires and Kingdoms all fell into chaos.

Facing their impending deaths, some people would explode out with the evil desires within their hearts.

Sometimes, humans were even more terrifying than demons.

This was especially when they had lost hope.

…

At Juedi Cliff, Spirit Sovereign Yan was still continuously creating Heavenly Law Puppets. Devil Emperor Dugu had already buried Zhou Xuanji’s corpse, and he had created a gravestone for him.

Baihao Yixin stood next to him, not saying anything.

The two of them had once been invincible and matchless in the world. They both felt incredibly complicated, and could not understand their feelings clearly.

Devil Emperor Dugu turned and looked at Spirit Sovereign Yan as he asked, “What do you plan to do now?”

Spirit Sovereign Yan coldly laughed and said, “Kill these Heavenly Guards, slaughter the human race, and then search for my son. I will slaughter one Empire every year; how does that sound?”

Now that Zhou Xuanji had died, there was no one in the Northern Wilderness who could threaten him.

After he separated from the Heavenly Palace, he would be able to openly and daringly cultivate. As for the new leading role of the Northern Wilderness, it was not important—anyone would do.

As long it was not the human race.

Devil Emperor Dugu shook his head and leapt up, leaving quickly.

Spirit Sovereign Yan loudly laughed and did not stop him.

The Northern Wilderness now belonged to him, so it did not matter where Devil Emperor Dugu went. He trusted that Devil Emperor Dugu would not dare to ascend, and he was only going to recover his cultivation.

He turned and looked at the Heavenly Law Puppets.

He had a crazed smile on his face and muttered, “It’s not enough! It’s still not enough!”

The more Heavenly Law Puppets he had in his Heavenly Law Puppet army the better. It would be best if he could overturn the Heavenly Palace.

On the other side, Baihao Yixin was preparing to sneak away.

“Great Emperor Heartless, do you know why he said those things and had you reincarnate?” Spirit Sovereign Yan’s words travelled into his ears, causing him to freeze and stop moving.

…

Within the Bahan Empire in a small town.

A ray of black light descended from the sky and landed in a courtyard.

After the black light disappeared, a naked baby boy appeared on the ground. He was curled up and was still as he slept.

As it began to become dark, a man dressed in plain and simple robes walked in. Seeing the baby boy, he stopped in his tracks.

He instinctively drew his sword and warily looked around.

This courtyard was not very big and only he lived here; why would there be a baby here?

He carefully approached the baby, and seeing the baby lying naked on the cold ground, his heart softened and he picked it up.

“It’s the end times for the human race; everyone is pitiable,” the man sighed, looking quite worried, as he turned and carried the baby inside.

The next morning, the baby boy suddenly opened his eyes, which had a pure gaze, as well as a trace of killing intent in its depths.

He was the reborn Zhou Xuanji, and his memories were still clear in his mind.

He was currently lying on a bed with a blanket over him, and there was the smell of incense in the room.

“Sword Spirit?” he inwardly called out.

“What are your orders, Sword Owner?” The Sword Spirit’s voice sounded out, causing him to let out a sigh of relief.

He turned and looked, and saw that no one else was in the room.
