"Elder Han, Xiao Chen is going as well."
Han Qinghe stopped Xiao Chen and said, "Don't be in a rush to leave. There are some things that cannot be said in front of others. Now, you can finally say them. The Sect Master told me to pass a message to you."
Xiao Chen stopped walking, feeling somewhat suspicious. The Haotian Emperor, whom I have never met before, has something to say to me.
Han Qinghe said sullenly, "The Three Holy Masters should know about your Martial Spirit. However, due to certain reasons, even if they are not willing to see the descendants of the Qing Emperor rise up, they will not do anything too excessive to you.
"However, it is hard to say for those Sovereign Noble Clans. Back then, when the Qing Emperor was in charge of the Bushin Palace, he was too domineering. Some of the Sovereign Noble Clans were not convinced, so he destroyed three or four of them.
"Aside from the Ying Clan, all the Sovereign Noble Clans detest the Qing Emperor. If they know that you possess the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit, they will definitely make a move on you after this battle."
Xiao Chen felt slightly stunned. He had not expected there to be such a secret. Back then, the Azure Emperor could even destroy a Sovereign Noble Clan. Exactly how strong was the strongest Sovereign Martial Emperor of the Kunlun Realm during the Ancient Era?
Han Qinghe continued, "Although the Dragon Subduing Slash has not appeared for tens of thousands of years, and many people have forgotten about it, those old fellows of the Sovereign Noble Clans will definitely not forget about it. Hence, the Sect Master instructed you not to use the Dragon Subduing Slash in this Sage War."
Xiao Chen smiled. However, there was no shock or fear in his eyes. Instead, there was a sharpness and rage. He said, "Xiao Chen appreciates the Haotian Emperor's kind intentions. However, there are some things that will come."
When Han Qinghe saw the situation, he said anxiously, "Xiao Chen, don't be rash. You still have a long way to go."
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand, and the Lunar Shadow Saber appeared in his palm. His lips curled up into a smile as he said, "Future? Why should I deceive myself and others? I can't avoid it unless I cripple my Martial Spirit once more. I will never be able to avoid it. "
"Running away is never the way to solve problems. I've been suppressing this anger in my heart for five years."
"Five years ago, my father chased me out of the house. Now that I think about it, it was laughable. The reason was because I had awakened the Blue Dragon Martial Soul. Just because of a Martial Spirit, a father chased his beloved son out. Who can understand his pain? I can't tell anyone about the anger in my heart, and who can understand it! "
"Who exactly did the Dragon's Gate's Qing Emperor offend? Fifty thousand years later, my Xiao Clan is still carrying such a heavy mountain, treading on thin ice."
"Since everyone in the world is afraid of the birth of the Blue Dragon, then today, I will declare in front of everyone in the world that there are not just three Holy Lands in the world. My Blue Dragon Martial Spirit is not something that cannot be seen."
Right and wrong, gratitude and grudges were settled. Let all the gratitude and grudges of the past come to an end today.
I've had enough. I've had enough.
Since people will find out sooner or later, there is no need to care so much. Even if I die sooner or later, I will still die. Since that is the case, I should at least control my life and death in my own hands.
I have accumulated resentment for five years, but I can't return to my home. I can't vent my anger. I've already waited for five years and advanced to peak unrivaled half-Sage. If I still can't vent this anger, will I have to wait until I become a Sovereign Martial Emperor before I can do what I want?
How long will I have to wait? Will I have to endure this anger for another hundred years?
That is definitely not me, Xiao Chen. Definitely not. Let me be willful for once, let me settle my grudges and be myself. I am the descendant of the Dragon's Gate's Qing Emperor. I am Xiao Chen.
"My apologies, Haotian Emperor."
Electric light surged under Xiao Chen's feet. With one step, he traversed five kilometers, instantly surpassing a large group of people. In an instant, he tore through the sky like a bolt of lightning, leaving many cultivators behind him.
"Boom!"
A figure landed on the deck, and a strong Emperor's Might spread out. This startled Han Qinghe. When he turned his head back to look, he saw that it was the Haotian Emperor personally arriving.
"Sect Master, why are you here yourself?"
The Haotian Emperor smiled faintly and said, "Since I have nothing to do, I came to take a look. This fellow really exceeded my expectations. He probably exceeded those three's expectations as well."
As Han Qinghe watched Xiao Chen move further away, he asked, "Is that a good thing or a bad thing for him?"
The Haotian Emperor revealed a contemplative gaze. Then, he said, "Sometimes, it is impossible to proceed according to common sense. Perhaps one can really do something unexpected."
Han Qinghe felt suspicious. He asked, "Sect Master, what are you trying to say?"
The Haotian Emperor smiled faintly and said, "This Xiao Chen is not as simple as you think. The Dragon's Gate's Qing Emperor set up fifty thousand years ago. How could he not have a backup plan? If he did not have a backup plan, the enemies he once offended would have killed all of his descendants long ago.
"Xiao Chen is trying to cut off all means of retreat, forcing out the backup plan that the Qing Emperor set up. He does not want it to remain unclear. With his sharpness, he is destined not to be someone who can be easily manipulated.
"If he can really prove himself, I don't mind making a bet in advance."
The Haotian Emperor revealed a determined expression as he muttered to himself.
Without any obstructions, Xiao Chen cleared the first floor's test and arrived at the small world. Starlight dotted the surroundings, and it was dark. It was like he was really in the Starry Heavens.
All sorts of chaotic fighting sounds rang out. There were at least a hundred cultivators fighting around each Sovereign. Saber lights and sword images filled the air, and blood flew everywhere. Occasionally, someone died under someone else's saber.
However, this place was rather strange. After someone died, they did not truly die. Instead, they appeared outside the Starry Heavens.
These people were unharmed, but they could no longer enter the small world of the Starry Heavens, losing the right to continue fighting for the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking.
Amidst the chaos, it was hard to avoid accidental injuries. As Xiao Chen walked, he ran into several cultivators flying at him.
If he could dodge, he would. If he could not, Xiao Chen directly punched. With a surge of force, he sent a cultivator attacking him flying out of the Starry Heavens with one punch.
After sending out a hundred people, Xiao Chen's horrifying strength finally turned the area within one kilometer of him into a pure land. No one dared to barge in.
Xiao Chen shifted his gaze upwards, looking at the ten Sovereigns at the very top of the Starry Heavens. The surrounding bustling scene and the Sovereigns within easy reach were not his target.
The cultivators of the Nine Ranks of the Great Clans and the Sovereign Noble Clans fought for the tenth to second thrones. The battles there were more than ten times more intense than the ones below.
However, the group of people surrounding the golden throne at the very top of the Starry Heavens remained silent as they cautiously looked at each other.
The Phoenix's Passion Palace's Nuan Muyun, the Divine Martial Gate's Feng Wuji, the White Emperor City's Xiao Hou Jue, the Thunder and Lightning Palace's An Junxi, the Yan Clan's Yan Shisi, and the mysterious swordsman Duan Yi, who had recently risen up.
The five of them all feared each other, sizing each other up. However, no one dared to act rashly lest they become a common target for the others.
The first golden throne of the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking held a fatal attraction for some people. No matter how intense the competition was, they would do their best to fight for it.
A brilliant light flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes. Electric light flashed under his feet as he executed Thunder Dragon Steps at full power. Instantly, he crossed the Starry Heavens and arrived at the highest point.
Then, he descended from the sky and slowly headed for the golden throne.
Compared to the other nine, the number of people fighting for this throne was pitifully few. However, the intensity of the competition and the quality of the contenders was the highest.
Without exception, these six experts were all demonic geniuses who comprehended wills.
Three of them were even legendary existences in the Tianwu Domain. Their radiance and Holy Might deterred others from getting close.
The first rank of the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking was not just an empty title. The Luck of the ancient Sages would land on it. The bountiful rewards of the Bushin Palace also tempted everyone.
White Emperor City's Xiao Hou Jue held a sword in his hand. His gaze was like lightning, seemingly piercing through the sky. As he stared at the golden throne, he displayed absolute confidence.
Before the reshuffle, Xiao Hou Jue already held the first rank. Now that the reshuffle was over, he did not intend to give up the first rank.
However, the intensity of the competition this time far surpassed Xiao Hou's expectations. Not only did his two old rivals from the Holy Lands target the first rank as well.
The Sovereign Noble Clan's Yan Shisi, the lower realm's Luck's mysterious swordsman Duan Yi, and An Junxi, who just fought Feng Wuji to a draw. None of them were minor characters.
"No one dares to sit? In that case, I, Yan Shisi, want this throne. "
Yan Shisi smiled faintly and moved his feet, preparing to land on the throne.
"Boom!"
Just as Yan Shisi moved his feet, the other five instantly drew their weapons. A strong aura, accompanied by the light of their wills, swept out.
The True Dragon Lightning Whip in An Junxi's hand, the Scarlet Blood Spear in Feng Wuji's hand, and the Heavenly Phoenix Sword in Nuan Muyun's hand were all Sub-Divine Weapons.
The instant they were drawn, a melodious hum resounded in the air, lingering for a long time.
Xiao Hou Jue remained as unmoving as a mountain. However, the azure ring on his index finger started to flicker with light, indicating that he was ready to make a move at any moment.
Only the mysterious swordsman Duan Yi revealed a faint smile in the depths of his eyes, appearing the most calm.
Under the pressure of the five experts' auras, undercurrents surged in the condensed air. Winds blew continuously. At this moment, all they needed was a spark to kick off a huge battle.
Below the starry heavens, the experts vying for the other nine thrones felt the horrifying auras merging together. Their expressions changed involuntarily.
Due to the agreement, the other geniuses of the four Sovereign Clans could not compete for the golden throne. The other geniuses wanted to, but they could not, fearing that they would lose sight of others.
Due to various reasons, these geniuses could not compete for the first rank. However, that did not mean that they did not yearn for it.
Yan Shisi gently withdrew his foot. His face, which was radiant with sunlight, cracked a smile as he said, "I was just joking. Don't be so serious. Brother Xiahou, I see that your eyes are the biggest. How about you take the first rank? "
Xiao Hou Jue smiled coldly in his heart, but his expression did not change. He said, "Yan Shisi, why the need to put on an act? Since you want to compete, I do not mind letting you go first."
No one was a fool. The first person to fly to the throne would definitely be attacked by the others at the same time, becoming cannon fodder immediately.
Furthermore, one had to sit on the throne for ten seconds before they could truly obtain it. How could it be that simple?
Everyone here was an outstanding genius. However, they were not arrogant enough to think that they could defeat everyone else by themselves. They had to take advantage of the chaos.
