Mountains and rivers were destroyed, and all living beings perished.
The Great Void Sect, which had been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years, vanished without a trace.
The war drums of the Celestial Court finally stopped. The hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers were silent, and the Twenty-Eight Mansions surrounded Ye Xuan. The two Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors stood on both sides of Ye Xuan again.
"Celestial Emperor, the Great Void Sect has been annihilated. Should we return to the Celestial Court?" The Evil Immortal Wang Qing bowed. Although he was surrounded by a vicious aura, he still displayed an extremely respectful attitude towards Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan shook his head slowly and said, "We'll discuss the construction of the palace later."
"Yes, Celestial Emperor." The Evil Immortal Wang Qing bowed and left.
Under the lead of the two Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors, the Heavenly Cycle's twenty-eight Lunar Mansions cast all sorts of immortal spells. There were also a hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers that transformed into Yellow-scarved Strongmen. They split mountains, split rocks, and cut rivers. Soon, a Celestial Thearch's temporary residence rose from the ground and stretched across the world.
The Celestial Emperor's palace shone with golden light. Vast Immortal Qi spread in all directions. The immeasurable aura made people feel like they were worshipping it. Xue Gie stared blankly at the palace that appeared out of thin air. She was in a daze and couldn't recover from her shock.
"Xue Gie, follow me."
Ye Xuan smiled and walked into the Celestial Emperor's palace. Xue Gie suddenly came to her senses. She followed behind Ye Xuan nervously and entered the Celestial Emperor's palace.
A hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers patrolled the vast heavens and the Twenty-Eight Mansions sat cross-legged in all directions of the Celestial Emperor's palace. There were also two Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors standing guard on both sides of the palace's gate. Just this kind of power was unimaginable.
Inside the Celestial Emperor's palace.
Ye Xuan sat on the Emperor's Throne. Xue Gie stood nervously in front of him, her hands fiddling with the corners of her clothes. Clearly, she hadn't seen Ye Xuan for thousands of years. When Xue Gie saw that Ye Xuan was already the Celestial Emperor of the Three Realms, she felt a sense of unfamiliarity. She also felt a great sense of reverence towards Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan shook his head helplessly as he looked at Xue Ji's uneasy expression. As the saying goes, it's lonely at the top. Although he didn't reveal any of the might of a Celestial Emperor in front of Xue Ji, when a person reached an unreachable height, even a former friend would have to look up to him.
Although it wasn't that Ye Xuan didn't understand this principle, he also felt something called loneliness.
"Heaven … Heaven Emperor!" Xue Ji lowered her eyes and spoke with a trembling voice.
"Lass, the title of Heaven Emperor is something that outsiders call you. You're the only disciple of Brother White Robes. You should be calling me Junior Master." Ye Xuan sighed.
Hearing Ye Xuan's warm words, Xue Ji raised her head slightly as a look of joy appeared on her face.
"Junior Master!"
"Tell Junior Master. Why have you only just become an Immortal after thousands of years?" Ye Xuan asked curiously.
Ye Xuan couldn't be blamed for being suspicious. Back when he was chasing after Yang Jian and returning to the Earth Immortal World, Xue Ji was already at the Body Integration cultivation state. Fatso Huang and the others weren't weak either. Based on his estimations, they would be able to become Immortals and enter the Earth Immortal World in less than 2,000 years.
But now that he was already the Heaven Emperor, a full 6,500 years had passed. But, Xue Ji was the only one who had appeared in the Earth Immortal World. How could Ye Xuan not be curious?
"Junior Master, there's something you don't know …"
Xue Ji's nervousness finally dissipated as she quickly informed Ye Xuan about the situation in the Mortal World. At the same time, Ye Xuan finally understood the reason why Fatso Huang and the others were still in the Mortal World.
"So, it's the Immortal Tribulation of the Nine Heavens!"
After Xue Ji was done with her narration, Ye Xuan nodded his head slowly. Finally, he understood the cause and effect. At the same time, he felt a sense of guilt towards Fatso Huang and the others.
To be honest, back when Ye Xuan was chasing after Yang Jian and returning to the Earth Immortal World, he didn't have the time to return to the Mortal World.
When Perfected Being Yu Ding attacked him, he was severely injured and had to recuperate in the Earth Immortal World. After that, he created the Inverse Immortal Formation Diagram and killed his way back to the Celestial Court, starting a great war in the Celestial Court.
After that, he even destroyed Emperor Zhen Wu and killed Perfected Being Yu Ding. Then, he hid in the North Continent and transformed into Kong Li. He devoured many Grand Heavenly Immortals and even started a massacre in the North Continent. All of that caused him to go into seclusion for three thousand years.
It was only until he ascended to the position of the Heavenly Emperor that he finally had some free time. As for Xue Ji, she had also gone through a lot to come to the Earth Immortal World to look for him.
"The Mortal World!"
Ye Xuan mumbled to himself. Memories from the distant past surfaced in his mind, causing the aura around Ye Xuan to feel even more lonely.
The Mortal World was the place where Ye Xuan was born and raised. It was also his ancestral ground. His family in the Mortal World lived there, as well as his former subordinates.
It was a pity that his family was no longer around. Even Liu Baiyi, whom he regarded as his only close friend, was no longer in the Mortal World. The only people he could interact with were his subordinates in the Mortal World.
"It's time to go back and take a look. It's also time to completely eliminate the hidden dangers in the Mortal World," Ye Xuan mumbled to himself. His aura was slightly gloomy.
"Uncle-Master, Fatso Huang and the others are in the late-stage Tribulation Transcendence stage. They might not be able to suppress their cultivation and attract the Immortal Tribulation of the Nine Heavens at any time. Let's set off quickly," Xue Gie said anxiously.
"Alright."
Ye Xuan got up from the Emperor's Throne and strode out of the Celestial Emperor's palace. Xue Gie quickly followed behind him.
Outside the Celestial Emperor's palace.
Two Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors stood to the left and right of the golden gate, acting as the guards of the Celestial Emperor's palace. They were Daluo Jinxian's people. There were only a handful of people in the Three Realms who could make them guard the palace.
When Ye Xuan walked out of the Celestial Emperor's palace, the two Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors bowed.
"I will be leaving for a period of time. Return to the Celestial Court first," Ye Xuan said calmly.
The two Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors were slightly stunned when they heard Ye Xuan's words. The Evil Immortal of Forgetfulness bowed to Ye Xuan and said, "Celestial Emperor, you are the ruler of the Three Realms. May I know what matter requires you to come personally? Your humble servant may only be at the Third Firmament of Grand Heavenly Realm, but as long as the Celestial Emperor commands, I will definitely take the lead. How can I trouble you to come personally?"
"That's right, Celestial Emperor. Unless it's someone from the Second Firmament of Grand Heavenly Realm, we might not be their match. However, as long as it's someone below the Third Firmament of Grand Heavenly Realm, you can just leave it to the two of us," Goddess of Stone echoed.
Upon hearing their words, Ye Xuan smiled and said, "I know of your loyalty, but there are some things that require me to do personally. Return to the Celestial Court now."
As Ye Xuan said that, the two Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors did not dare to speak further. They knew what they should and should not ask. They immediately left with their orders and gathered a hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and the twenty-eight Lunar Mansions. They rose into a golden cloud and returned to the Celestial Court.
The matters of the Human Realm were Ye Xuan's secret. Even though he was the Celestial Emperor, he did not wish for anyone to know of the existence of the Human Realm. Therefore, he had to personally make the trip to the Human Realm.
"Let's go."
The Grand Heavenly Immortal Light surged out and enveloped Xue Gie. When Ye Xuan took a step forward, the space-time around him changed as the two instantly vanished from their original spot.
The Retrograde Passageway.
Within the gloomy door, there were howling gales, thunder, and fire. Ye Xuan strolled through the Retrograde Passageway. Under his protection, Xue Gie's face was filled with excitement. She looked at Ye Xuan's back with eyes full of admiration.
Master, did you see that?
More than six thousand years have passed and Martial Uncle has already become the Celestial Emperor of the Three Realms. If you knew about this in the underworld, you would be smiling in the underworld!
Xue Gie's eyes turned red as Liu Baiyi's face and voice appeared in her mind. She finally understood why her master valued Ye Xuan so much. Even if he had to spend hundreds of years and his own soul dispersing, he still wanted her to pass the Inverse Immortal Formation Diagram to Ye Xuan.
Her master, Liu Baiyi, was right. Ye Xuan, whom her master regarded as a close friend, did not disappoint him. In the Earth Immortal Realm where immortals, demons, and demons roamed the land, Ye Xuan was already an existence that stood at the peak.
Buzz!
When they reached the end of the Retrograde Passageway, a ray of light bloomed in front of them, causing Xue Gie to suddenly wake up. However, tears unknowingly flowed down from the corner of her eyes. These were tears of joy and relief for her master, Liu Baiyi.
