The news of two Sovereigns descending upon Mu City spread like wildfire across the Hongling Continent.
When they first heard the news, countless powerful cultivators scoffed. Monarchs were the most powerful beings in the continent. To countless powerful cultivators, they were like gods. How could they descend to the inconspicuous Mu City? Moreover, there were two of them.
However, some sharp-eyed people noticed that the Chen Family, which had been relying on Sovereign Zhu Yuan's name to act like a tyrant, had disappeared without a trace.
All the core members of the Chen Family had disappeared overnight. Many of the Chen Family's most valuable assets had been sold off in time.
Some well-informed people had already heard that Chen Peng had been crippled. That day, Chen Tiandao had led a group of elders of the Chen Family and rushed to Mu City aggressively. Countless experts had witnessed it with their own eyes.
The Chen Family's reaction had undoubtedly verified the rumor.
The news that Mu Qingling had temporarily replaced the Mu Family as the head of the family had also spread. Some even said that it was because Mu Qingling was the mysterious Sovereign's confidante.
Although many people still had doubts about the news, the Chen Family had no intention of stopping the Mu Family's rise. They had even disappeared. This was enough to explain many things.
There was a huge mountain in the north of the Hongling Continent. The mountain's waist was so tall that it pierced through the clouds. It was impossible to tell how tall the mountain was from below.
Anyone who passed by this area would look at this huge mountain with awe and admiration in their eyes.
This was the residence of one of the three Sovereigns of the Hongling Continent … Sovereign Xu Yu.
There was a majestic palace on the mountain peak surrounded by clouds and mist.
At this moment, two figures stood in front of the main hall, their gazes fixed on the far south.
The two figures exuded a vast aura, and they exuded the disdainful aura of someone who had been in a high position for a long time.
Anyone with a bit of insight would be able to easily recognize that these two were Emperor Xu Yu and Emperor Dong Yao!
"Brother Yu, what do you think?"
Sovereign Dong Yao asked after a moment of silence.
"Hmph, someone from the Prison Realm?"
A wisp of a fierce expression flashed through Imperial Monarch Xu Yu's eyes as he said, "No matter who he is, he's only a junior in the eyes of I, Xu Yu."
Xu Yu had already made a name for himself during the era of the Prison Emperor. When he followed the Prison Emperor into the White Fang Abyss, he was only at the peak of Level 6 Origin Realm. However, due to his prudence and luck, he managed to become the last Prison Realm Expert to survive. He even reached the peak of the Origin Realm and officially entered the ranks of the Imperial Emperors!
To him, even the current ruler of the Prison Realm was just a junior to him.
"Brother Yu, this person cannot be underestimated."
The Eastern Brilliance Monarch's expression was rather solemn. "Zhu Yuanzi couldn't wait to inform us of this matter. It's obvious that he wants to make him his ally and use him to resist us."
"Zhu Yuanzi is nothing to worry about."
Xu Yu said indifferently. His tone was filled with unconcealable confidence.
Although the three of them were at the peak of the Origin Realm and had yet to reach the half-step Chaotic Realm, Xu Yu was the strongest among the three with his understanding of the Hell Seed!
As his ally, the Eastern Brilliance Monarch was slightly weaker. As for Zhu Yuanzi, he was treated as a coolie every time he went to the Evil Black Tortoise's territory.
If it wasn't for the fact that they were worried about losing an Imperial Emperor and that it would be difficult for them to enter the depths of the White Flame Sea with just the two of them, Xu Yu and the Eastern Brilliance Monarch would have attacked Zhu Yuanzi a long time ago.
Xu Yu and the others didn't expect that a new guest would appear on the continent just as the Evil Black Tortoise was about to slumber. Furthermore, Zhu Yuanzi had beaten them to it.
"If Zhu Yuanzi was alone, there would indeed be nothing to worry about. However, from his attitude, I can feel that this person is probably stronger than Zhu Yuanzi."
The Eastern Brilliance Monarch was still a little worried.
As a native Imperial Emperor of the Primordial Spirit Continent, he was no stranger to Zhu Yuanzi. The two of them had supported each other on the path of seeking Dao, so he knew Zhu Yuanzi's character very well.
Although the latter had casually informed them in his message, the Eastern Brilliance Monarch knew that Zhu Yuanzi wouldn't have dared to make such a rash decision if it wasn't for his confidence in his ally.
This fellow must have thought that joining forces with this new Imperial Emperor would be enough to compete with the two of them for resources.
"It's alright. He's strong, so our journey will be easier."
Xu Yu was still unmoved. In his opinion, the people of the Prison Realm would definitely kneel down and greet him after knowing his identity. How would they dare to make an enemy out of him?
After all, the Prison Emperor Corp was like the sun in the sky in the Prison Realm back then. Even though it only existed in name now, Xu Yu believed that no one in the Prison Realm would dare to go against him because of his identity.
"Brother Yu, why don't we go and take a look as well?"
The Eastern Brilliance Monarch pondered for a while and finally couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Dong Yao, you don't believe me?"
Xu Yu's tone sank as he looked at the latter.
Hearing this, the Eastern Brilliance Monarch's expression stiffened, but he soon shook his head with a bitter smile and didn't insist.
The Eastern Brilliance Monarch was a cautious person. Perhaps it was for this reason that he chose to ally with Xu Yu. The two of them secretly killed several Imperial Emperors, leaving only the three of them in the entire Primordial Spirit Continent.
As Xu Yu comprehended the Hell Seed, the latter's personality seemed to have become a little arrogant. This made the Eastern Brilliance Monarch a little dissatisfied. However, even he couldn't figure out Xu Yu's true strength. Therefore, he had a headache about this, but he couldn't show it.
"That's it then. You'll know when you meet that person from the Prison Realm ten years later."
Xu Yu didn't want to explain too much. After all, the Prison Emperor had fallen and the Prison Emperor Corp had long disappeared. The current him was no longer the same as before. In his opinion, he didn't need to rely on these empty titles at all.
"In that case, I'll go back and make preparations."
The Eastern Brilliance Monarch took a deep breath and cupped his hands at Xu Yu. "Brother Yu, see you in ten years!"
Hum …
As soon as he finished speaking, the Eastern Brilliance Monarch didn't hesitate. He took a step forward and disappeared into the clouds.
"Hmph, he's still so timid even though he's an Imperial Emperor. When I step into that realm, there'll be no need for this so-called ally to exist anymore."
Xu Yu looked coldly in the direction where the Eastern Brilliance Monarch left and murmured to himself.
After more than ten chances, Xu Yu had already comprehended 70% to 80% of the Hell Seed.
