"Young man, don't mind it!"
Seeing Du Feng frowning slightly, the woman comforted him with words. The Imperial City might look grand on the surface, attracting countless people to visit and worship. Actually, these ordinary residents didn't care about their image at all.
"It's … it's fine."
Du Feng said that he was fine, but then he wiped the sweat off his forehead. Because he found a problem. These uncles were actually Fifth Rank Immortal Emperor Cultivation Masters.
How worthless were Fifth Rank Immortal Emperors in the Imperial City when they were chatting and scratching their feet? Moreover, these Fifth Rank Immortal Emperors weren't the kind of Immortal Emperors that could only be cured by pills. Others might not be able to sense it, but Du Feng could clearly sense that they were True Immortal Emperors that had been through bloody battles. Their actual combat abilities were definitely not bad.
Immortal Emperors that had killed millions of enemies were now squatting and scratching their feet at the entrance of an alley. Du Feng couldn't help but wipe the sweat off his forehead when he saw this.
The residents of the Emperor City were too strange. Could it be that they were all crazy? Thinking of this, Du Feng couldn't help but quicken his steps. He wondered why Emperor Yellow had arranged for him to follow Huang Ying here. Was it just for the rich resources here?
With doubts in his mind, Du Feng continued to follow the woman. He understood that nothing ventured, nothing gained. Moreover, he couldn't go back now.
"We're here, this is the place."
After walking for a while, the woman stopped in front of a bungalow. This place was basically the same height as the other bungalows. It had brown courtyard walls, a grey house and dark blue tiles. The advantage of this was that it wouldn't attract attention. But people with bad memory could easily find the wrong place.
The woman skillfully took out a key, twisted it twice, and opened the door. Actually, for people with Immortal Emperor Cultivation Masters, this kind of lock was really unnecessary. It could be kicked open with a light kick. It didn't matter if it was locked or not. Moreover, it was an old-fashioned lock that couldn't be activated with vital essence.
There were always some differences between the Immortal Realm and the Heaven Realm. For example, the elemental energy here was especially abundant, but for some reason, everyone was dressed very simply. Could it be that there were many Immortal Meridians here, but the basic resources were lacking? That didn't seem possible, right?
No, Du Feng immediately denied his own thoughts, because anything could happen.
The woman closed the gate and led them further inside. After entering the living room, a middle-aged man was standing there waiting.
"Welcome, welcome. If I'm not mistaken, this should be Du Feng."
As soon as this person opened his mouth, Du Feng was shocked. What he was prepared to say was that this person had shocked Du Feng before he even opened his mouth. This was because he looked exactly like the Yellow Emperor. His voice was also exactly the same, but he seemed slightly younger. This kind of youthfulness wasn't just in terms of age and appearance, but it gave off a more energetic and youthful feeling.
How to put it, it was like a middle-aged uncle suddenly fell in love with a young girl and couldn't help but want to make himself look younger. Du Feng couldn't help but rub his eyes, then looked carefully to see if this person had disguised himself.
That's right, there really weren't any traces of a disguise. Furthermore, this person's aura wasn't as strong as the Yellow Emperor's, which meant that he wasn't as strong as the Yellow Emperor of the Heavenly Court.
"You don't recognize me?"
Du Feng stared at the other person's eyes, wanting to see his reaction.
"But I can also say that I don't."
"Ying 'er, take your mother out first. I still have some things to say to this friend."
He gave a look and sent his wife and children out first. Then, he invited Du Feng and the two of them slowly chatted.
"No need to be surprised, the one you saw was also me, but it wasn't the same me."
"Let me introduce myself, my real name is Huang Sheng."
Huang Sheng didn't wait for Du Feng to ask and started to tell him. He really wasn't the Yellow Emperor of the Heavenly Court, but a third primordial spirit that had been separated from the Yellow Emperor. Of course, the Yellow Emperor knew about this, but Donghuang Taiyi didn't.
In order not to let Donghuang Taiyi discover anything, Huang Sheng didn't have any of Donghuang Taiyi's characteristics, nor did he cultivate any techniques related to Donghuang Taiyi. His goal seemed simple: to accompany his wife, Pu Xue, and live a peaceful life in the Imperial City.
Especially in the commoner district, many people seemed to have come here because they were tired of fighting. For example, those foot-scratching uncles must've gone through a lot of fighting. But now, they were all gathered together, chatting and bragging. It was very relaxing.
When the Yellow Emperor separated his third primordial spirit, he knew that he would die one day, or that Donghuang Taiyi would take it back. That was why he purposely removed the parts of his memory that had anything to do with Huang Sheng and Pu Xue, leaving only Huang Ying by his side.
When Donghuang Taiyi took him away, he didn't know what had happened in the Realm of True Immortals. In order to reduce the loss of Cultivation, the third primordial spirit's cultivation level was very low when it was first created. He even needed Pu Xue to take care of him.
But because Huang Sheng was very talented, his Cultivation level gradually caught up while he lived in the Imperial City. He was now a fifth-transformation immortal emperor level nine. He was a little higher than Du Feng, but not by much.
The Yellow Emperor of the Heavenly Court had already planned that once Donghuang Taiyi left the Upper Realm, Huang Ying would bring someone over, someone who could help him ascend to the God Realm. This "himself" referred to Huang Sheng.
To the Yellow Emperor, Huang Sheng was himself, while he himself was only Donghuang Taiyi's second primordial spirit. This relationship sounded a little messy, but it was the truth. In other words, the Yellow Emperor could sacrifice himself, but he had to protect Huang Sheng.
If Huang Sheng lived, then Pu Xue's husband, or Huang Ying's father, would live too. If Huang Sheng died, then everything would be gone.
How terrifying was it for a second primordial spirit to have its own independent thinking ability? He had actually created a third primordial spirit and tricked the main body, Donghuang Taiyi. It seemed that Huang Sheng wanted to ascend to the God Realm one day and meet Donghuang Taiyi.
When that time came, wouldn't there be a battle between the third primordial spirit and the main body?
