Seeing this, Kui Lin was filled with emotion.
He didn't dare say he'd traveled far and wide to no avail, but the current situation was pretty much the same.
Chao Feng had left far too many marks on Kui Lin's body. Although Kui Lin had the means to erase them, it would still take some effort.
If he'd fought them just now, he'd have to use some of his trump cards to deal with them.
He'd recalled his clones and absorbed the demonic energy back into his body, which meant he was ready to use his trump cards.
Who would've guessed that Ye Zichen would emerge from the mausoleum at that exact moment? Coincidentally, the emperors' attention was on Kui Lin, which was why he'd managed to capture Ye Zichen before the emperors did.
Of course, Gu Luolin was a problem. With the Gu Family backing her, he really didn't dare do anything extreme to her before obtaining transcendence and good fortune.
Kui Lin's lips curved into a sinister smile. When the other emperors saw this, they all rushed over. Kui Lin immediately turned around, grabbed Ye Zichen by the neck, and shouted, "Take one more step!
"One more step and your Star Lord's soul will return to the River Styx!"
When the emperors heard this, they immediately stopped. The Great Sage and Yang Jian's eyes blazed with fury.
"If you dare touch him, don't even think about leaving here alive!"
"Since I dared to tear down all pretense of cordiality with you, I'm prepared to leave my life here. It's just …." Kui Lin suddenly tightened his grip. Ye Zichen's face reddened. "I wonder if you're prepared to watch him die?"
"You …."
The Great Sage took a step forward, and his overwhelming divine power transformed into a tempest of divine power. Kui Lin narrowed his eyes and tightened his grip. The Ocean Emperor hurriedly held the Great Sage back.
"Alliance Head Ye is in his hands. Don't provoke him!"
"Monkey, the Ocean Emperor is right!" Yang Jian tried to dissuade the Great Sage.
Filled with hatred, the Great Sage fiercely swung his arm, but his fiery eyes were filled with rage.
Ye Zichen was captured, and the other emperors felt like they'd lost their lives. Even if they had all sorts of tricks up their sleeves, they didn't dare use them. Kui Lin was the one holding Ye Zichen. No one here was confident they could subdue Ye Zichen before he snapped his neck.
Kui Lin's eyes twinkled with disdain as he glanced at the sovereigns.
Ye Zichen loosened his grip slightly. Ye Zichen, who was on the verge of suffocation, took a few deep breaths.
"Star Lord Ye, we really are fated!" "Isn't it Lord Demon Emperor who has been waiting for me here? Why does it sound like a chance encounter from Lord Demon Emperor's words?" Ye Zichen didn't show any sign of fear. He smiled, then glanced at Kui Lin's left hand. "I don't care about me, but are you sure you want to do the same to her?
Get involved. You know very well who the person behind her is. "
"Hmph, I don't think you dare to do anything to me."
Even though she was being strangled, Gu Luolin's eyes were still filled with arrogance.
"I really wouldn't dare do anything to the young lady of the Gu Family." Kui Lin smiled.
However, when this light laughter entered into the ears of the other Imperial Monarchs, all of them couldn't help but be shocked.
Miss Gu!
The young lady Kui Lin was holding by the neck was a member of the Gu Family!
Who among the three Yao and Demon Clans would dare bear the surname Gu? Only the Gu Family was superior to all three Clans. Even the Shamans had to treat them with respect.
The Gu Family's Imperial Monarchs only had one thought in their heads: Has Kui Lin gone mad?
Even if he didn't harm the young lady, his actions were still a threat to her safety. If she went back and told the Gu Family, even if Kui Lin didn't die, he would suffer greatly.
Pu Jingwan, Yang Jian, and the Great Sage had never heard of the Gu Family. When they saw the other Imperial Monarchs' expressions change, a strange light flashed through their eyes.
"Big Sister Xuan Ji, what does the Gu Family do?"
Yang Jian couldn't restrain his curiosity. Xuan Ji turned and glared at him. She was furious at the way he'd addressed her, but she still explained.
"The Gu Family transcends the Three Realms."
"Transcends?" Pu Jingwan arched her brows. "The Gu Family never appears in the outside world, and there's almost no news about them. However, after they become rulers, they pay a visit to the Gu Family, which is why only rulers and above know about them. But after leaving the Gu Family, everyone feels that it's a taboo, so there's no news about them.
They only know about them. "
"Then we …."
"You weren't born and raised in the God, Yao, and Demon Realms. The Gu Family has never summoned you, so it's only natural that you don't know about them."
"Then why are they so transcendent? Could it be that they have someone even stronger than the emperors?"
When Pu Jingwan asked this question, the surrounding great emperors fell silent.
After a while, Xuan Ji nodded.
"That's right, they have three half-step transcendence experts!"
… …
… …
… …
Kui Lin really was a bit fearful of Gu Luolin's background. Although he maintained his grip on her neck, it was just an empty gesture. Besides, his goal was to steal Ye Zichen's inheritance. Gu Luolin wasn't part of his plans.
"Since the Demon Emperor doesn't dare touch her, why don't you let her go?"
Ye Zichen looked Kui Lin in the eye. He said this because he wanted Gu Luolin to escape as quickly as possible.
No one knew whether or not Kui Lin would go crazy. If he really did, even if Gu Luolin had the Gu Family behind her, he wouldn't have much to fear.
"Let her go?" Kui Lin laughed. "Alliance Head Ye, you really know how to joke. I really don't dare do anything to her, but that's only if I want to live. Unfortunately, your luck is a bit lacking. Not long ago, I decided to fight with my life on the line. "
Suddenly, Kui Lin tightened his grip.
Her grip on Gu Luolin tightened. Gu Luolin clutched her arms and kicked her legs. Her bright eyes were filled with agony, but it was clear that she was warning Kui Lin …
"Miss Gu, your background really does make me fearful, but I've already prepared for the worst."
He narrowed his eyes and smiled at Gu Luolin, then a hint of madness flashed through his eyes.
"Hand over the fortune in the tomb, or both of you will die!"
This guy had really gone mad!
When Ye Zichen saw the madness in Kui Lin's eyes, he knew he'd truly gone mad.
He truly didn't expect transcendence to be so enticing to Emperors like him and Zhou Wu. They were actually willing to give up the empire they had painstakingly built up for it. They didn't even consider how hard it had been for him to obtain his cultivation. They were willing to risk their lives for it.
He'd thought Zhou Wu was the odd one out, but …..
Another crazy one!
"Let go of her first. All you want is the fortune in the tomb, and it's mine. There's no need to drag her into this."
"Hand it over, or she'll die before you!"
"I didn't take the fortune. It's still in the tomb!"
"Hand it over!"
Kui Lin tightened his grip. Gu Luolin began to bleed from the corners of her mouth.
It seemed Kui Lin wouldn't stop until he'd obtained the fortune. Ye Zichen couldn't let things go on like this.
"Cang Xiong!"
As soon as Ye Zichen spoke, Kui Lin sensed that something was wrong. He'd reacted quickly enough, but to his surprise, the holy light mark Chao Feng had left on him had become his greatest threat.
His movements were stiff, and he tried his best to warn the others in advance. However, before he could react, a tall and sturdy figure had already appeared behind him.
A fist tore through space and slammed into his back. At the same time, his arms around Ye Zichen and Gu Luolin suffered two heavy blows. The instant Ye Zichen and Gu Luolin escaped his grasp, Kui Lin saw another pitch-black fist hurtle viciously towards his face.
Boom!
Like a comet, Kui Lin slammed into the ground, creating a huge crater in front of the tomb.
The emperors, who'd been waiting for a long time, instantly moved to surround Kui Lin, while Yang Jian and the others approached Ye Zichen.
"Ye-zi!"
"Gu Luolin, are you alright?"
Ye Zichen held the unconscious Gu Luolin in his arms. He reached out to the Great Sage and the others, and Pu Jingwan took out a pill and placed it in his hand.
He placed the pill in Gu Luolin's mouth, then circulated his spiritual energy and patted her on the back.
The unconscious Gu Luolin coughed up a mouthful of blood. When she woke up, she reflexively …..
"Where is that guy? I'm going to kill him!"
Gu Luolin was like an enraged little lion. Kui Lin really was brazen! He'd dared choke her! Not only did he choke her, he'd almost strangled her to death!
"Don't think about revenge for now. Just focus on absorbing the pill's effects."
Ye Zichen rolled his eyes at Gu Luolin, then nodded to Yang Jian and the others.
"Sorry for making you worry."
"Hey, is my mission over? If there's nothing else, I'm going to head back," said Cang Xiong, who'd just finished off Kui Lin with a single punch.
Yang Jian and the others looked at him. This was a fierce man …..
Earlier, even the nine emperors couldn't do anything to Kui Lin, but now this big brother had sent him flying with a single punch!
"You've worked hard. I'll pay you later."
Cang Xiong nodded and disappeared into the void. Yang Jian also spoke at this moment.
Yang Jian spoke up, "Who was that guy? He's a bit fierce. When are you going to call him out so we can spar?"
The Great Sage nodded. Both he and Yang Jian loved to fight, and when they saw such a fierce expert, they itched to fight.
"You …. You won't be able to beat him."
From the moment Cang Xiong finished off Kui Lin with a single punch, Yang Jian and the Great Sage knew they were no match for him!
"Even if we can't beat him, we can still try!"
"You'll have a chance." Ye Zichen understood their personalities, so he changed the subject. "Shouldn't our main problem be the Demon Emperor?"
They landed shoulder-to-shoulder. By now, the Ocean Emperor and the others had completely surrounded Kui Lin.
When they saw Ye Zichen, the emperors nodded at him. Ye Zichen nodded back, then landed a few hundred meters away from Kui Lin.
Kui Lin sat in the pit, coughing up blood. Gu Luolin gnashed her teeth in hatred.
"You dared hurt me? Let's see if I …."
"Stop right there and don't move!"
Ye Zichen grabbed her, but Gu Luolin struggled to break free. She wanted to avenge him.
"Jingwan, help me keep an eye on her. No matter what, don't let her move." Ye Zichen shoved Gu Luolin into Pu Jingwan's arms, then turned to Kui Lin and said, "Your Highness, Demon Emperor, you've lost!"
Kui Lin, who was coughing up blood, turned to look at the emperors, who were staring at him like gods.
Kui Lin glanced at Ye Zichen, who stood outside their encirclement. His eyes flashed with the same contemptuous smile.
"I lost?"
