Even though Laden was feeling extremely humiliated, he was still extremely elated that he had managed to escape with his life in the nick of time.
The mighty figure who had come to save him was one of the four Dao Integration Stage emperors of the Divine Palace of Life, Emperor An Mang.
Emperor An Mang was the previous Holy Disciple, and he was extremely powerful. It could be said that he was the most powerful Dao Integration Stage emperor among the four emperors aside from Emperor Fu Tian.
"Emperor Tian Huang, why don't we just let this matter rest? You didn't suffer any losses, and we won't pursue the Dark Poison Lord's death and the destruction of the fourteen cities. How about we just let this matter rest? "Emperor An Mang proposed in a refined and courteous manner.
However, in terms of the consequences of this matter, the Blood Race would undoubtedly have to pay a greater price. It was obvious that the Blood Race's Great Emperor had made a huge concession by personally making such a promise.
However, Emperor Tian Huang shook his head without a second thought. "No! Laden must die! "
Emperor An Mang's expression darkened. "Why? He just transmitted his voice to me, and he told me that he didn't kill any of the powerful beings of the Celestial Court. "
Lightning flashed through Emperor Tian Huang's eyes as he spoke in an indifferent voice, "However, if I had arrived a moment later, the hope of the Celestial Court would have been destroyed by Laden, and countless prodigies and citizens would have been killed by him. I can't allow someone like him to live! "
"However, none of that happened, and I promised that I wouldn't target these people again," Emperor An Mang said.
"Heh … Foolish Blood Tribe cultivator, have you never heard of the crime of attempted murder?" A mocking smile appeared on Emperor Tian Huang's face.
"Attempted murder?" Emperor An Mang faltered slightly upon hearing this.
At this moment, an extremely terrifying bolt of lightning instantly descended upon Laden.
Laden's face turned deathly pale in the face of this terrifying bolt of lightning, and a sense of impending doom engulfed his entire body.
Right at this moment, a pitch-black palm suddenly appeared in front of him. It was like an abyss that could devour all things, grabbing that extremely frightening lightning in its hand and slowly absorbing it.
"Emperor Tian Huang, are you really not going to let this matter rest?" Emperor An Mang's brows furrowed slightly, perplexed by Emperor Tian Huang's actions.
Emperor Tian Huang took a step forward, and the entire area within a radius of over fifty kilometers was instantly filled with boundless lightning that pulverized the void and annihilated all living things. The earth was instantly reduced to scorched earth, and all living beings didn't even have a chance to scream before they were reduced to ashes by the lightning.
"Emperor, don't go too far!" Emperor An Mang was enraged by this, and the sun and moon in the sky were obscured as boundless darkness engulfed the entire world.
"What's with all the blabbering? If you want to stop me from killing Laden, then come and fight me!" Emperor Tian Huang laughed heartily as he pounced toward Emperor An Mang.
Emperor An Mang unleashed the boundless Great Dao of Darkness and Death, and heaven and earth wailed as everything within a radius of five hundred kilometers fell into darkness.
Emperor Tian Huang summoned tens of thousands of lightning bolts to sweep across the sky, reducing everything in their path to nothingness.
The two Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures were finally unleashing a massive battle!
Laden took advantage of this opportunity to escape with all his might. During his escape, he unleashed several different mystic techniques and life-saving treasures, and he finally managed to escape from that hellish place.
He didn't dare to spectate from the sidelines in fear that he would be blasted to death by Emperor Tian Huang's chaotic lightning if he wasn't careful.
Laden transformed into a streak of crimson light as he fled toward the Divine Palace of Life. At this moment, his only thought was to get to his father's side and slowly recover from his injuries …
Not only had he wasted an extremely precious life-saving immortal tool in this battle, but his Dao foundation had also been severely damaged, and his path to the Dao Integration Stage had become a very distant one. This was the most tragic outcome for him.
"Detestable, detestable … It's all because of that dragon and that human male!" Laden gritted his teeth with hatred toward those two strangers.
He swore to himself that he would find an opportunity to exact revenge on them in the future.
Boom boom boom …
Atop Huang Quan City, An Lin and the others stared into the distance with bewilderment in their eyes.
"Is this an earthquake?" Su Qianyun asked in a mellow voice with a surprised expression.
"The tremors of an earthquake are very rhythmic, not as chaotic as this." Xuanyuan Cheng shook his head and said, "I feel like someone is conducting some kind of mysterious experiment."
An Lin's expression darkened. "This is clearly caused by a battle! Emperor Tian Huang must be battling someone! "
Xu Xiaolan was a little excited. "It must be a battle between two Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures. Should we go and have a look? Perhaps it will deepen our understanding of the dao. "
Before An Lin had a chance to say anything, the Flying Sword God immediately objected with a solemn expression, "No! Stay where you are! A battle between super mighty figures like this could easily get caught up in the shockwaves. "
Sissy Chen Yu nodded in agreement. "A thousand years ago, Emperor Ziwei battled the Divine Bat Emperor of the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool. There was a Return to Void Stage dragon who seemed to be a prodigy of the Ao Tribe who ran over to spectate the battle in excitement, only to be killed by one of the Divine Bat Emperor's divine abilities in a moment of carelessness. The Dragon Tribe didn't even have a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure yet, so they could only swallow this humiliation … "
An Lin also felt like the Dragon Tribe was quite aggrieved upon hearing this. Their pillar of support had been slain, but they didn't dare to say anything.
However, he couldn't muster up any sympathy for those people when he thought about the Dragon Princess.
The battle between Emperor Tian Huang and Emperor An Mang ended in a draw.
It looked like neither of them had gained the upper hand, but the result was that the Blood Tribe's Dark Marshlands had been reduced to scorched earth for over a thousand kilometers.
Twelve cities had been destroyed due to an unknown attack, and hundreds of thousands of Blood Tribe cultivators had perished.
The Blood Tribe had to bear all of the losses incurred in this battle.
Emperor An Mang finally understood why Emperor Tian Huang was so insistent on this battle. He was using Laden's death as a f * cking excuse to wreak havoc in the Dark Marshlands!
In the end, Emperor Tian Huang laughed heartily. "Let's fight another day."
Emperor An Mang almost chased after him into the Kingdom of the Nine States, but he then thought of the other four emperors of the Celestial Court, and he stopped in his tracks. "Remember this, Emperor Tian Huang!"
He looked at the figure of the lightning that was fleeing into the distance, helplessly throwing down these words before disappearing into the void once more.
Thus, the battle came to an end.
An Lin was a little surprised that Emperor Tian Huang hadn't killed Laden.
However, after thinking about it for a moment, he realized that this wasn't all that surprising.
Laden was a supremely talented prodigy who had a good chance of progressing to the Dao Integration Stage, so the Blood Tribe would definitely keep an eye on him. He had many trump cards, so there was no way that Emperor Tian Huang would be able to kill him so easily.
Before Emperor Tian Huang left, he left a wisp of his divine intent toward Huang Quan City in case any other Blood Tribe mighty figures came to seek revenge.
After surviving that ordeal, everyone in Huang Quan City returned to their idle state.
Not only did the students not want to go to the Dark Marshlands, but even the soldiers refused to patrol the area.
In the past, the Flying Sword God would organize scouting missions to see if there were any Blood Tribe spies nearby. However, this was a sensitive period, so they didn't even have to do that.
Everyone remained on the city wall as a lookout. Well, they were just standing around like idiots.
Two days later, Tina revived on the spot after a good night's sleep, and she excitedly dragged An Lin along to enter the Divine Mirror World.
