Chapter 2072: Panicking Emperors (2/2)
Virtuous’s expression turned ugly after the public disrespect: “On what basis do you chase me away? I’m a student here.”
“Were. The fact that you’re standing here shows that you only want the treasures from Study Room instead of helping.” Li Qiye said flatly.
“You! Don’t be falsely accusing people!” Virtuous turned red and trembled with rage.
“So what? It’s not like we can be friends.” Li Qiye retorted.
Virtuous had no answer. Of course they couldn’t become friends. Not to mention the previous provocations, just the fact that Li Qiye had killed Six-sword cemented their foul relations.h.i.+p with each other. He was naturally on Nine-sword’s side.
“If we can’t become friends, then I’ll overestimate myself and will ask you for a duel.” Virtuous was young and this was his first time being humiliated after becoming a monarch. He couldn’t let this go at all.
“Boom!” His four wills emerged as he channeled his power.
“You are indeed overestimating yourself, I don’t need to personally take care of someone at your level. Gu Guo, slay him.” Li Qiye waved his sleeve again before ordering.
“Out of my way!” South Emperor was fighting against low-level High G.o.ds. He swung his halberd and repelled all of them before leaping into the sky towards Study Room.
“South Emperor.” Immortal Emperor Bai Lian murmured. He has also heard about the existence of a slumbering genius at Mysterious Bamboo, one of the ten eonic geniuses.
“My pleasure, Sacred Teacher.” South Emperor stood in front of Virtuous and pointed forward with his halberd: “Fellow Daoist, I have heard of your great talents and wish to challenge you today.”
“Very well!” Virtuous leaped to the sky and summoned his divine weapon.
He was serious at the moment because South Emperor also had four wills just like him.
“Let’s go!” South Emperor’s halberd instantly blocked off all the s.p.a.ce around Virtuous.
“Die!” Virtuous’s twelve palaces appeared with a loud detonation in order to stop the halberd.
The two of them began to ravage the sky vault.
“Sacred Teacher…?” Immortal Emperor Bai Lian looked as if he had just seen a ghost after hearing this t.i.tle. He recalled an ancient legend he heard of during his youth.
He turned pale because he had experienced enough to know that this was no legend!
“You, you are that cr-” The emperor quickly changed his tone: “You are the leader of our nine worlds?”
In fact, he wanted to say crow or dark hand behind the curtains, but these t.i.tles were rather unflattering, a taboo subject.
This existence has eliminated the invincible Ancient Ming and crucified one of their emperors whose scream echoed across the nine worlds.
In the thirteen continents, his tale was even more overwhelming - the starter of Emperor Hunt against the three races.
“Back at the Verdant Cliff for that hero a.s.sembly, I spared you because it wasn’t easy for an existence like you to reach the dao. Later on, you indeed have successfully walked on the regal path. Unfortunately, your achievements in the thirteen continents left me wanting.” Li Qiye said.
The emperor was drenched in cold sweat after hearing this. He could clearly recall what happened on that day. It wasn’t until he became an emperor that he realized how close to death’s door he was. The fact that he survived had nothing to do with his power, only that the existence decided to show mercy.
He took a deep breath and bowed deeply: “Senior, I had no clue of your arrival, please forgive my insolence.”
Showing slight was unacceptable since even the unbeatable Ancient Ming emperor got killed, let alone someone like him. In fact, the guy didn’t need to do anything. Just one word from him and the emperor would have no place to stay in the thirteen continents!
