Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, sixteen years had passed.
Only five years remained until the Battle Sage Immortal Saber transformed into an arrow and stabbed into the 'Zhou' character on the King-Slaying Register.
Sixteen years …
The Xian Hong Mountain was still sealed.
The Three Clear Daoist Gate was still the same.
It was as if the hurricane from sixteen years ago had merely blown across the faces of the beings of the Nine Heavens before disappearing without a trace.
The indifference of the Three Clear Daoist Gate caused the beings who were secretly cheering for them to feel pain in their hearts.
Their way of thinking was very simple …
They did not dare to go against the Lu Family.
But they desperately hoped that someone would go against them.
When their hopes were dashed, what replaced them was not only disappointment, but also curses that they would never say.
The Three Clear Daoist Gate was the best at enduring curses.
If a cultivator could not wipe their face clean, how could they crawl before the Impermanence of the Heavenly Dao, keep pace with it, and become its master?
The history of the Three Clear Daoist Gate was a complete one.
They used everything they had to carve out a path of survival in the chaotic primordial era.
Even though the appearance of the Three Purities Daoist Form had given them hope, in order to protect that hope, they didn't view themselves as superior to others because of it. Instead, they sought perfection even more, all for the sake of the Three Purities Daoist Form's smooth growth.
After being a coward for a long time, cowardice would become part of one's nature.
That was what most beings in the Nine Heavens thought sixteen years later.
Of course, this did not include the Emperors.
Thus, compared to the beings who began to pay attention to the Lu Family's King-Slaying Register, the Emperors paid more attention to the Three Clear Daoist Gate.
Silence. It was not silence. It could also be a moment of silence before an explosion.
What they wanted to know was how the Three Clear Daoist Gate would explode.
"There should be five more years …"
The Ice Monarch, who had been thinking about this matter, thought so.
However, just as he and the other Emperors decided to wait for another five years …
A strange light shone from the depths of the endless starry sky.
This light was ignored by most of the living beings.
After all, it was normal for the Nine Heavens to see a flash of light from time to time.
However, this light caused the expressions of the Emperors to change slightly. They unhesitatingly shifted their gazes from the Three Clear Daoist Gate to the direction of the light.
To be precise, this was not light …
It was saber light.
This saber light was extremely dazzling in the ancient times.
Without exception, the brilliance was deeply engraved on the souls of the Great Emperors —
Even if the person wielding the saber wasn't a Great Emperor.
"Battle Sage Immortal Saber!"
"He's going to attack …"
"The Lu Family found Miao Di?"
"I didn't expect it to be brought forward by five … Hmm?"
"It's actually not Emperor Miao …"
…
Even with the speed of a Great Emperor, it took some time for his Emperor Consciousness to reach the place where the saber light was released.
After seeing the scene of the saber light blossoming, most of their conjectures in a short period of time were overturned.
It was indeed Lu Ya's Battle Sage Sword.
The Battle Sage Immortal Saber had indeed struck.
It was Lu Feng, the sixth son of the Lu Family.
However, the one who took the knife was not Emperor Miao of the Imperial Slaying List, but one of the Nine Emperors of the Nine Heavens — Emperor Hao's daughter, Hao Nu.
From a certain point of view, this was even more shocking than the Lu Family's Imperial Slaying List itself.
However, just as the Great Emperors were adjusting their state of mind and observing the battle …
"Hehe, is it fun to watch me suffer?"
Hao Nu's lazy voice came from the starry sky that was dodging the saber light that seemed to pierce through the past and present.
Then, the gazes of the Great Emperors darted away quickly.
They were curious.
However, no matter how curious they were, when faced with the possibility of facing a crazy woman who was haunting them and had a powerful background, all curiosity was no longer curiosity.
The void was peaceful because of this.
What was not peaceful was still the saber light that pierced through the past and present and the Nine Heavens.
Hao Nu was a Great Emperor, and a very powerful one at that.
However, the saber was Lu Ya's saber.
In the world, apart from the Evil Emperor and the Nine Emperors, there were others who dared to take this saber head-on.
However, the outcome of these Great Emperors would make other Great Emperors not dare to take Lu Ya's saber head-on.
Of course, Hao Nu could also see that although this saber that pierced through the past and present had the possibility of killing her in her mother's womb, it was only a possibility …
"It's not predestined …"
Because the person holding the saber was Lu Feng, not Lu Ya.
All the Great Emperors knew this.
And this was also where their doubts lay.
Facing a saber that was not Lu Ya …
Even if Lu Ya did something to the Battle Sage Fairy Saber before he sealed himself, it was impossible for the lawless Hao Nu to control the Ancient Starry Sky to dodge.
So …
"Why did she dodge?"
Dodging was not the way Hao Nu should deal with Lu Feng.
Dark Blade understood that the word 'regret' in his words was affecting Hao Nu.
The Great Emperors were extremely confident.
However, when faced with a situation that even the Great Emperor himself couldn't be sure of and that was caused by himself, the Great Emperor would be at a loss.
Was Hao Nu really sure that Xie Tian, who was thrown into the Time Slope where the Flower Emperor was, could come out alive with the reincarnation method left by the Evil Emperor?
She was not sure.
Therefore, in the face of Lu Feng's Battle Sage Fairy Saber, Hao Nu only dodged it.
But dodging was also the stupidest way for Hao Nu to deal with the Battle Sage Fairy Saber.
"This saber can't be dodged."
Although he had never fought with the Battle Sage Fairy Saber in his life, as an Emperor weapon, Evil Moon knew that if Lu Ya controlled the Battle Sage Fairy Saber to slash at the Evil Emperor, the Evil Emperor would not dodge …
Because it was impossible to dodge.
As strong as the Evil Emperor was, there was only one way to deal with it — to take it head-on.
Fortunately, he had the ability to take it head-on.
Did Hao Nu have it?
She did.
But the price she had to pay for taking it head-on could very well cause Hao Nu to fall from her position as Great Emperor.
With that thought in mind, the Evil Duo looked up at the void in unison, trying to find the familiar gaze from Emperor Hao.
Unfortunately, they could not find it.
"Maybe he knows that the Lu Family will know when to stop …"
Evil Moon speculated about the reason for Emperor Hao's indifference, and then suddenly laughed at himself. "Or maybe it's because we can't even sense his gaze now."
The silent Dark Blade did not respond, and instead looked up at the ancient starry sky overhead.
The ancient starry sky, which was dodging the Battle Sage Fairy Saber to its limit, was shaking violently.
This wasn't the trembling caused by his anger at all, but a sign that the sky was about to fall and the earth was about to shatter.
As time passed, the trembling grew more intense, so much so that he could not be sure if the ancient starry sky would shatter in the next moment.
All he knew was that whether it was Hao Nu or Hao Emperor, they would try to prevent such a situation from happening.
"Will Le Feng avoid it …?"
The Dark Blade could not be sure …
Just like how he could not be sure whether Le Feng had attacked Hao Nu because Hao Nu had taken away Xie Tian, or because he already knew that Hao Nu had thrown Xie Tian into Time Slope.
Different starting points meant different attitudes.
That was why, out of regret, Hao Nu subconsciously did not want to clash with Le Feng. That was why she had repeatedly avoided Le Feng and the Battle Sage Fairy Saber.
That was why Emperor Miao, who had been hiding and watching the show, saw that the Battle Sage Fairy Saber that was supposed to deal with him had landed on Hao Nu's head. His joy turned into a gloating expression.
Until …
The Battle Sage Fairy Saber, which had pierced through the past and the Nine Heavens, inexplicably made a turn and slashed past the hidden Emperor Miao.
There was a cracking sound.
The layers of profound space hiding Emperor Miao were torn apart by the saber radiance.
Seeing Emperor Miao suddenly appear, Hao Nu and Le Feng were both stunned.
"Haha … Emperor Miao, what are you thinking?"
The Noble Maiden felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders. She laughed out loud as if she had just seen a great comedy.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place?"
Le Feng frowned, sheathed his saber, and walked toward Emperor Miao.
"Ah …"
Only now did Emperor Miao, who had been brushed by the saber radiance, feel the pain brought by the Battle Sage Fairy Saber. After a moment of extreme shock, he screamed and fled.
No one had expected that …
Just like that, the Lu Clan's first Thearch Slaying Battle officially began without any warning.
