Profound Tian Continent, the southernmost land.
This is a tall stone gate made of dragon-suppressing stone. There is a waning moon on the left side of the stone gate and a blazing sun on the right side. Both are golden and dazzling. In front of the stone gate, sixteen people are standing on both sides. Each of them is dressed differently, but on their backs and chests, they all have the same blazing sun and waning moon tattooed on them.
The most shocking thing is that the mysterious energy auras emanating from these people are extremely terrifying. The weakest one is at the Tyrant Mystic Realm.
At this time, the stone door that had been closed for a long time silently opened to both sides, and a tall figure slowly walked out. These sixteen peerless masters who had the capital to look down on the world all knelt down and bowed their heads, saying respectfully: "Welcome the young master out of seclusion."
Ye Xinghan raised his hands and eyebrows, with an arrogant look on his face, as if he was the supreme ruler of this world. He said calmly: "It's exactly six months, and the time is almost the same as I estimated. You have worked hard guarding the gate, get up."
The sixteen people stood up, and the one at the far side said with a look of surprise, "Young Master's profound strength has actually broken through to the eighth level of Tyrant Profound Realm... It has only been six months! This is truly a joy for my entire Divine Palace. Congratulations, Young Master."
"Young Master is indeed a genius. I believe the Sword Master would be extremely happy if he knew about this." Another person also hurriedly flattered.
"Congratulations, young master, on your great achievement. With your talent and progress, I believe that in another twenty years, you will be able to reach the realm of the Emperor!"
"Protector Ao is wrong! With the young master's talent, it won't take twenty years, at most another fifteen years, to become an emperor."
"Fifteen years..." Ye Xinghan's mouth curled up slightly. With his current realm, if he could reach the realm of the Emperor in fifteen years, even in the Four Sacred Lands, it would be an extremely fast progress. However, if he could get a woman with the "Nine Mysterious Exquisite Body" as his cauldron, why would it take fifteen years!
“Where is the Xia Qingyue I want? Where is she now?” Ye Xinghan’s eyes radiated with excitement and heat.
All sixteen people were speechless at once, staring at each other, no one spoke. At first, he suddenly ordered to go to the Blue Wind Country's Ice Cloud Immortal Palace to bring a person named "Xia Qingyue", they were all very surprised. And now, as soon as he came out of seclusion, the first person he asked about was "Xia Qingyue" again, which showed that the importance he attached to this woman was far beyond their expectations.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Ye Xinghan's face suddenly darkened: "What? Did you guys mess this up?"
“No, no, Young Master, calm down!” The oldest of the sixteen people said hurriedly, “The guardians Qing Sheng and Zi Yi assigned by the Young Master left for Cangfeng Country three days after the Young Master went into seclusion, but they have not returned until today.”
“Has not returned yet? What does ‘has not returned yet’ mean?” Ye Xinghan’s eyes became extremely gloomy: “Could it be that the two of them… can be defeated by the mere Blue Wind Nation’s Ice Cloud Immortal Palace!!”
“That’s absolutely not the case.” The old man explained hurriedly, “This old servant knows that the young master attaches great importance to Xia Qingyue, so when he saw that they had not returned yet, he sent voice messages to inquire about them many times, but their answers were always evasive and vague. Every time, they said that it would be easy to capture Xia Qingyue, and they would definitely bring Xia Qingyue back before the young master... This old servant sent voice messages to inquire again three days ago, and they gave a similar answer. We are all guessing that Qingsheng Ziyi must have seen the beauties in the Ice Cloud Immortal Palace, so... took advantage of the young master’s retreat to indulge in pleasure there... and didn’t want to leave.”
“Oh, you are so brave!!” Ye Xinghan’s eyes narrowed into two slits like poisonous snakes, but when he learned that it was not impossible to bring Xia Qingyue back, his anger was much less. He picked up a piece of sound transmission jade that was unique to the Sun Moon Divine Palace, and a bone-chilling voice emanated from his mouth: “Qingsheng Ziyi, you really gave this young master a big surprise!”
After a long while, a trembling voice came from the sound transmission jade: “Young Master… Congratulations on your great mastery of divine power and your successful exit from retreat. Your subordinate… Your subordinate knows that he has failed in his work… Your subordinate will take Xia Qingyue back to the Divine Palace immediately, please rest assured, Young Master!”
"Return to the Divine Palace?" Ye Xinghan sneered: "You still remember to come back? I see you are having a great time there and have ignored my orders!"
"No, no, Young Master, listen to my explanation!" The voice on the sound transmission jade became even more flustered: "Young Master's order, I will do it as soon as possible at the risk of my life, and I will never dare to slack off. It's just... it's just that this Ice Cloud Immortal Palace is not as simple as I thought, and it is full of weirdness. Not only are their overall strength not weak, but they also have a defense formation that is so strong that even I can't break through. When I finally broke through the formation, they had all hidden in a place made of Tian Pan Jade. Moreover, Tian Pan Jade is extremely thick, and I can't break through it in a short time. I don't have the courage or face to ask the elders for help, and I think that the young master will be in seclusion for at least half a year. This period of time is enough to break through the Tian Pan Jade, so... that's why it has been delayed until now."
“However! Please rest assured, Young Master! Perhaps it is because of the Young Master’s coming out of seclusion that your subordinates and others have been attacking for several months, and today is the day to accomplish their mission! In a few more hours, we will definitely be able to break through the Heavenly Rock Gate! Although your subordinates have not been able to capture Xia Qingyue, she has been trapped in a jar for the past few months. Once we break through the Heavenly Rock Gate, we will be able to capture her directly and present her to you… Your subordinates guarantee this with their lives, and every word they say is true.”
"Heavenly Jade?" Ye Xinghan frowned. He certainly knew how tough and precious Heavenly Jade was. Even with the strength of his Sun Moon Palace, it was almost impossible to build a hall made entirely of Heavenly Jade. Although it was a little unbelievable, he was sure that Qingsheng and Ziyi did not have the courage to lie to him.
Ye Xinghan said gloomily: “It would be best if the jade stone could be broken today just as you said! Do you know how much I paid to know the existence of Xia Qingyue! She is much more important to me than your life! If my bottleneck had not loosened and I needed to retreat, I would have been ready to go there myself... I will give you another ten days. After you capture Xia Qingyue, you must come back day and night! If I still can’t see Xia Qingyue after ten days... you don’t need to come back forever!”
"Yes... please rest assured, young master. I have done a poor job and will be punished by you when I return." The voice coming from the sound transmission jade trembled even more heavily.
“Humph!” Ye Xinghan put away the sound transmission jade and said coldly, “A bunch of trash!”
“Young Master, please calm down. The two of them would never dare to lie to you. Since they have made such a solemn promise, I believe that they will be able to bring Xia Qingyue to you within ten days.” The old man stepped forward and said.
Ye Xinghan narrowed his eyes and said, "How could such a small Ice Cloud Immortal Palace have so many Heavenly Jades? Humph, even if there really were, with their abilities at most at the Emperor Profound Realm, how could they possibly build a complete palace out of it... It's really intriguing."
“Speaking of which…” Ye Xinghan’s eyes narrowed: “What is the current situation of the Blue Wind Nation? Hasn’t it been destroyed by the Divine Phoenix yet?”
"Even if it doesn't happen right now, it's only a matter of time. Why would the young master care about the affairs of this tiny country?"
"Humph, whether Blue Wind Nation survives or dies is just an insignificant matter. I just can't understand why the Divine Phoenix Nation wants to occupy Blue Wind, and why it is so eager." Ye Xinghan said in a deep voice: "Not only is the Blue Wind Nation small, but it is also scarce in resources. It is simply not worth annexing. But the Divine Phoenix Nation has sent out millions of troops. Even if it completely conquers Blue Wind Nation and plunders all of Blue Wind Nation's resources, it is estimated that it will not be enough to offset the three-year expenditure of these millions of troops. If you say there is no trick, I will never believe it."
"There have been many speculations over the years about the reason why the Divine Phoenix Nation invaded the Blue Wind Nation. The most common speculation is that it was because the Blue Wind Nation's consort Yun Che defeated the Divine Phoenix Empire in the Seven Nation Ranking Tournament three years ago, leaving them humiliated, and they were furious and wanted revenge."
“What a joke.” Ye Xinghan said disdainfully: “If Feng Hengkong is such a rubbish, he won’t be able to become the leader of the Phoenix Divine Sect. They must have some plan. The Blue Wind Nation should be finished soon. After they capture the Imperial Capital, you must send people to keep an eye on their movements... especially any unusual movements that are out of line with common sense!”
“If we talk about unusual movements… there is one thing that is very strange.” The oldest person said cautiously: “A few months ago, the main army of the Divine Phoenix was only a thousand miles away from the Blue Wind Imperial City, but suddenly sent out hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Floating Cloud City in the easternmost part of Blue Wind… Floating Cloud City is the smallest city in Blue Wind Country, not much bigger than a town, and it is inconspicuous. The young master should not have heard of it. The hundreds of thousands of Divine Phoenix troops quickly occupied Floating Cloud City, and did not kill anyone. But the strange thing is that less than half of the Divine Phoenix troops entered the city. The hundreds of thousands of Divine Phoenix troops were all dispersed to the surrounding areas of Floating Cloud City. It has been like this for several months… It seems that they are searching for something.”
“Hmm?” Ye Xinghan’s eyes suddenly flashed, and after a moment of hesitation, he whispered, “Immediately place a few dozen more people into the Divine Phoenix Army… and thoroughly find out what they are doing!”
At this time, the leading Dharma Protector suddenly showed a change of expression, took out the sound transmission jade from the space ring, and then his face changed slightly.
Seeing his unusual movements, Ye Xinghan glanced at him: "Is there something important?"
"Young Master, the spies from the Imperial Holy Land reported... the Heavenly Saint Profound Ark just flew out of the Imperial Holy Land!"
"What? The Heavenly Saint Profound Ark?" Everyone was shocked. "Could it be that the Holy Emperor has been dispatched?"
“No!” The Great Protector shook his head: “It’s not the Holy Emperor… There is only one person in the Heavenly Saint Profound Ark! It’s that Xia Yuanba!!”
"Xia Yuanba!?" Everyone suddenly looked at him sideways. Three years ago, Xia Yuanba was a completely unfamiliar name, but three years ago on the Primordial Profound Ark, Ye Xinghan discovered the secret of his Overlord Profound Veins, which alarmed the entire Sun and Moon Divine Palace... as well as the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region and the Supreme Ocean Palace! No one in the Four Sacred Lands did not know the name "Xia Yuanba", even though he was less than twenty years old at the time.
Because once the power of the Overlord Profound Vein is fully awakened, the person who possesses it will become the emperor of the world! !
“The Heavenly Saint Profound Ark has always been the Holy Emperor’s vehicle… but it was given to Xia Yuanba!!” a guardian exclaimed in astonishment.
“The Heavenly Saint Profound Ark is not the key. The most shocking news is…” The Great Protector holding the Sound Transmission Jade took a deep breath and said, “Just now our informant emphasized that Xia Yuanba had been in seclusion for three years and just came out two hours ago… When he came out, the profound energy wafting from his body was clearly that of the Emperor Realm!!”
“What!!?” The shocking sound shook the entire stone hall violently. Ye Xinghan’s face changed drastically. A guardian stared with wide eyes and said, “How… how is this possible! Xia Yuanba should only be twenty-one years old now… A twenty-one-year-old emperor has never existed in the Profound Sky Continent, let alone now! Even if he has the Tyrant Emperor Profound Vein… it is impossible!”
Overlord Divine Vein...Twenty-one years old...Emperor!!
Just now, they were surprised that the Holy Emperor allowed Xia Yuanba to board his exclusive vehicle... But now, after hearing this shocking news, they no longer felt surprised. A 21-year-old emperor, a person that ten thousand "geniuses" could not describe! Not to mention handing over the strongest profound ark to him, even if he was immediately named the young master of the Holy Domain, no one would think it was too exaggerated.
The Great Protector glanced at Ye Xinghan carefully and said, “The people in the Royal Saint Domain were also deeply shocked. But from what they said, it seems… it seems… the reason why Xia Yuanba’s profound strength surged so fast was because… because of the young master?”
"What do you mean?" Ye Xinghan's face suddenly darkened.
The Great Protector took a breath and said, “Three years ago, after Xia Yuanba returned to the Imperial Holy Land, he kept talking about…swearing to kill the young master. And the awakening of the Overlord Divine Vein requires a desire for power. The stronger the desire for power, the faster it will awaken… Xia Yuanba was in seclusion for three years with the obsession of swearing to kill the young master… So… So…”
“Is Xia Yuanba really the only one on the Heavenly Saint Profound Ark? Do you know where Xia Yuanba is going on the Heavenly Saint Profound Ark?” A guardian shouted loudly. As soon as he shouted, everyone understood what he meant… A 21-year-old emperor, with the Overlord Profound Veins and endless potential, is terrifying just to think about! What’s even more terrifying is that he has a deep hatred for the Sun Moon Divine Palace! !
Being able to grow so fast... shows just how deep his hatred for Sun Moon Divine Temple has become!
Such a big problem must be eradicated as soon as possible no matter what! ! It must not be allowed to continue to grow.
"It is certain that there is only Xia Yuanba! Xia Yuanba is a Cang Feng countryman. After coming out of retreat this morning, he heard that Cang Feng was about to be destroyed, and he flew into a rage on the spot! The direction he was heading in the Heavenly Saint Profound Ark is exactly where Cang Feng is! With the Heavenly Saint Profound Ark's maximum speed... it will only take four or five hours to reach the border of Cang Feng! Young Master, should we..."
“Do you think the people of the Royal Extreme Holy Land are all idiots!” Ye Xinghan said sinisterly, “The Holy Emperor has been childless for a thousand years, and only has a few godsons. However, none of those godsons have ever been able to touch the Heavenly Sacred Profound Ark! Now that there is Xia Yuanba… the future Lord of the Holy Land, how can his godsons have a chance! The Holy Emperor is willing to grant him the Heavenly Sacred Divine Ark… How could he not put his safety first! Do you think… is it time for us to break off relations with the Royal Extreme Holy Land!!”
All the guardians lowered their heads immediately and dared not respond.
“Report this matter to my father immediately in detail. Xia Yuanba… must die! But his identity is no longer that of an ordinary Saint Domain disciple. How to make him die… can only be decided by my father!” Ye Xinghan said in a deep voice.
"Yes! I will report this to the Sword Master right away."
