Chapter 617.1 - Godly Seat (1/2)

“No, you can’t do that. Return my son. Return my son!” As she screamed, Ju Zi immediately increased her speed and rushed out.

She was already not too far from Huo Yuhao. She also acted very suddenly. Her human-shaped soul tool was the best she could wear. Once its soul thrusters were activated, she almost instantly teleported in front of Huo Yuhao. She reached out for Xu Yunhan.

Huo Yuhao lifted his hand, and a strong force restrained Ju Zi. She was completely restricted. Right now, Kong Deming knew that it was too late to save her.

Huo Yuhao spoke coldly as he looked at Ju Zi from close-range. “Leave with your people. I won’t retract my decision after I’ve made it. You must pay the price for your mistake. I trusted you so much before, and even told you about my closed-door cultivation. How did you treat me in return? Now, I can’t bring myself to trust you again. I won’t harm you. Leave.”

“Return my son. Return my son to me. I can’t let him leave with you. In your eyes, he’s the Emperor of the Sun Moon Empire. You won’t guide him properly. He is my last hope in life. Yuhao, I beg you. Return my son to me. Return him!” Ju Zi begged.

If this were the past, Huo Yuhao would have gone soft-hearted. However, the entire Dou Ling Empire had been crushed because of her betrayal. Even the Star Luo Empire was almost annihilated, and the White Tiger Duke had almost died at her hands.

Huo Yuhao hardened his stance and forcibly shook his head. “Leave! There’s nothing more to say.”

“No–!” Ju Zi shouted. “Huo Yuhao, you can’t do this. You can’t do this. Yunhan, Yunhan is your son!”

Space seemed to collapse. Just when Ju Zi said this, space within a region spanning a hundred meters in diameter collapsed. Her voice was completely drowned in that space. Only those within this region heard what she said.

Time and space seemed to stop at this moment.

Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong were both astonished. So was the White Tiger Duke. Their expressions froze. Ju Zi was still sobbing. Little Yunhan was stunned. He lifted his head and looked at Huo Yuhao.

This strange scene just paused in the sky like that.

A dignified voice sounded all of a sudden and echoed in their ears.

“I told you before – never reveal this secret. If you reveal it, I’ll take your son’s life. It seems like you’ve forgotten my words. In that case…”

A bright beam of golden light shone. Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong, Dai Hao, Ju Zi and Xu Yunhan only felt as if everything was spinning in front of them. In the next instant, they came to another place.

When everything became clear once again, they were astonished to discover that they were above a golden patch of clouds.

Even with Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong’s cultivations, they couldn’t sense where they were right now.

It was just that they weren’t thinking of this at the moment. Huo Yuhao’s gaze was fixated on Ju Zi. He lost his voice as he asked, “What, what did you say? Whose son is this?”

Ju Zi was already pale-white by now. The dignified voice left her horrified. She quickly grabbed Xu Yunhan. After this, she kneeled down. “No, please, I beg of you. Don’t harm my son. It wasn’t intentional. I was just afraid that he would harm my son! Please, please don’t hurt my son.”

Huo Yuhao only managed to turn around right now. He also unleashed his Spiritual Detection. However, he was stunned to realize that he couldn’t sense any changes around him, even with his immense spiritual power.

What’s going on? Where is this place? Huo Yuhao was stupefied as he tried to make sense of everything around him. He couldn’t understand what was going on.

At this moment, a beam of golden light shone in front of everyone. That dignified voice spoke once again.

“Aren’t you afraid of harming someone else’s kid if you are so afraid of harming your own? I’ve already tolerated this fellow for a long time. But heaven is benevolent. However, you still blurted it out. Hatred has blinded you and caused you to lose control of your emotions. You’re walking towards destruction. I’ll grant you your wish since that’s the case.”

A golden figure slowly became clearer and clearer. A handsome man who seemed to be only twenty years old appeared in front of everyone.
