"Later on, a mysterious elder appeared and stopped Emperor You. No one knows who that mysterious elder is, nor does anyone know what his relationship with Emperor You is. All we know is that Emperor You seems to respect him a lot. After that mysterious elder appeared, Emperor You stopped his killing. Later on, Old He committed suicide in front of Emperor You as an apology. Only then did Emperor You's killing intent dissipate."
"Not long after, Emperor You left just like that. He didn't say a single word from the beginning to the end. When he came, he had a saber, and when he left, he still had a saber. The difference was that when he came, his eyes were gloomy, and when he left, his eyes were crimson. When he came, his saber was gloomy, and when he left, his saber was also gloomy …"
"I still remember clearly that the sun set that day. Dusk came, darkness came, and night fell … After Emperor You left, the sun hanging in the sky above Pill Cauldron Valley never rose again. No light could be seen, and it was shrouded in darkness for a very, very long time …"
In the hall.
Qingqing, Li Xin, and the ancient powerhouses of the Changsheng Pavilion stood there, listening. They were shocked and terrified. After Old Man Kaishan finished speaking, Li Xin and the others gradually came back to their senses after a long time.
None of them thought that Emperor You and Pill Cauldron Valley had such an unknown grudge. Pill Cauldron Valley was even almost wiped out by Emperor You. This was really …
"I was wondering why Pill Cauldron Valley's disciples were very high-profile in ancient times. Why have they been so low-key for 10,000 years in modern times? It's rare to see Pill Cauldron Valley's disciples in the great wilderness. So that's why."
Old Man Splitter nodded. "Back then, Emperor You went on a killing spree in Pill Cauldron Valley. It wasn't a disaster for Pill Cauldron Valley, but it wasn't far from it. Fortunately, all living things in modern times have recovered, and Pill Cauldron Valley's sleeping ancestors have awakened. After 10,000 years of recuperation, they should've mostly recovered."
"Why isn't there any news of such a huge matter?"
"Only the seniors of the blessed lands know about this. After all, Pill Cauldron Valley is one of the seventy-two blessed lands. If this matter were to spread, not only would Pill Cauldron Valley decline, the other blessed lands, including the three thousand grand daos, would also lose face. Thus, this matter was kept a secret and no one said anything."
"Grandmaster."
At this moment, Qingqing asked, "How do you know so much about this? Were you involved in this matter all those years ago?"
"The cause and effect of this matter, including the enmity between Emperor You and Pill Cauldron Valley, I'm afraid that no one in the universe knows better than I."
"Grandmaster, what do you mean by that?"
"It's a long story. Back then, when the You Emperor had just entered the great wilderness and had yet to become the Jiuyou Emperor, Old He and I met the You Emperor in an ancient dwelling and even fought against him. We both admired the You Emperor very much, so we stayed in that dwelling for a very long time. You can say that we got to know the You Emperor."
"It was also because I drank and chatted with Emperor You that Old He and I learned that Emperor You had once lived in seclusion in the Scarlet Refinement Fairyland in the Lingluo Domain. After learning that the disciples of Pill Cauldron Valley had killed someone in the Scarlet Refinement Fairyland, Old He specially invited me to go to the Scarlet Refinement Fairyland with him. That's why I know the whole story better."
Li Xin and Qingqing found it unbelievable. In the past, they only knew that the old man had fought Emperor You, but they had never heard that he had drunk and gotten to know Emperor You.
"Old Man, why haven't I heard you talk about this before?"
"It's all in the past, so there's nothing to talk about. Moreover, so many years have passed. I don't even know if Emperor You still remembers I."
"Old Man." Someone from the Changsheng Pavilion asked, "You said that if the North Cauldron Immortal King really wants to go against Emperor You, Pill Cauldron Valley's great ancestor might come personally. Does this mean that they're planning to seek revenge from Emperor You?"
"Pill Cauldron Valley was almost annihilated by Emperor You in ancient times, and they're still planning to seek revenge?" Li Xin asked, "Aren't they afraid that Emperor You will really annihilate them this time?"
"Since Pill Cauldron Valley's great ancestor has awakened, it won't be easy for Emperor You to annihilate Pill Cauldron Valley."
The others might not be aware, but Founding Mountain knew that regardless of whether it was the 36 grotto-heavens or the 72 blessed lands, the great ancestors' existences were unimaginable. There were saints who were above the 3,000 great paths, venerables from the primeval era, and even Yuanshi from the Chaos Era. All of them were great ancestors who could stir up the world with a single thought.
"Of course, even if Pill Cauldron Valley's great ancestor has awakened, they might not really dare to seek revenge from Emperor You. At the very least, they probably won't do anything before they're absolutely confident. Perhaps they're here this time to test the strength of Emperor You, who has returned from ancient times."
"I wonder where Emperor You is now," Qingqing said faintly, "and if he knows his situation."
Founding Mountain sighed and said, "It doesn't matter where Emperor You is now. What's important is the Nine Heavens' Immortal Path's attitude."
Indeed.
The people who came from all directions, regardless of whether they were from the great immortal realm clans, grotto-heavens, blessed lands, or great path geniuses, were all waiting for the Nine Heavens' attitude. Because they all knew how terrifying Emperor You was. Only by relying on the Nine Heavens' prestige would they dare to encircle Emperor You. If the Nine Heavens didn't do anything, no one would dare to provoke Emperor You. Even the 72 blessed lands like Pill Cauldron Valley were no exception.
Because of this.
Many Immortal Realm clans hoped to obtain some information from the Immortal Court Residence in the Lingluo Territory, especially those Immortal Realm clans who had a deep grudge against Emperor You. Some of them might have lost their reputation because of Emperor You, some might have lost their face because of Emperor You, some might have their relatives killed by Emperor You, some might have their goddesses stolen by Emperor You, and all sorts of other reasons. It could be said that they hated Emperor You to the core and had always wanted to kill Emperor You to avenge themselves.
But the key was that the Nine Heavens didn't have a clear attitude and didn't do anything at all. This made them feel unsure. Even the Immortal Court residence in Lingluo Territory didn't do anything. And the gate of the Nine Heavens wasn't something they could enter as they wished. Therefore, they could only come to the Immortal Court residence in Lingluo Territory to obtain some information.
But they didn't expect that the Immortal Court residence in Lingluo Territory was also tightly shut. Only guards were left to guard the gate and an old housekeeper was handling the situation. No matter who came to ask, the old housekeeper only said one sentence. Currently, the Immortal Court residence hadn't received any orders from the Nine Heavens. Their Immortal Court Lord had also been waiting for the orders from the Nine Heavens.
This made those immortal realm lords who wanted to take revenge on Emperor You extremely anxious. They didn't know what the Nine Heavens' Immortal Path meant.
Actually.
The lords of the Immortal Realms were not the only ones who were anxious. The Immortal Dynasties that ruled the major worlds of the Lingluo Heavenly Domain, including the Immortal Court that ruled the Lingluo Heavenly Domain, were also anxious like ants on a hot pan.
At this moment.
In the main hall of the Immortal Court residence in Lingluo Territory.
The various Sengoku Lords and Sengoku Elders had all gathered here. They also came to the Immortal Court residence to obtain information. However, the Elders in the Immortal Court residence were even more anxious than them. This was because they really hadn't received any orders from the Nine Heavens.
