682: Chapter 250 Great Emperor_6 682: Chapter 250 Great Emperor_6 They charged forward, besieging the already injured Great Emperor Heavenly Venerate.
The Great Emperor fought back, blocking their attacks, but coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood.
His injuries were very severe; he had already been wounded by the Golden Lion previously.
Now facing the encirclement of several Celestial Immortals, he was no match for them, his combat power having drastically declined.
The Golden Lion sneered, his expression filled with mockery.
For such a dignified Ancient God to stand up for a group of mortal ants and to stake his life, in his view, the persistence was laughably extreme.
How foolish must one be to commit such an idiotic act?
At that moment, a child ran out from the group of mortals, passed through the combatants including the Great Emperor, knelt before the Golden Lion, and cried out, “Please spare that Great Emperor Immortal, kill us instead, it has nothing to do with that Great Emperor Immortal.”
Hearing the child’s words, the Golden Lion was momentarily taken aback.
Then, with a mocking smile, he said, “I didn’t expect such a frail human whelp to actually possess such loyalty and righteousness.”
Following that, he pointed at the other mortals and said with a sneer, “Just you on your own isn’t enough, those people have to come and beg me together, then I might spare the Great Emperor.”
The child turned around, looking somewhat bewildered at the group of people.
More than twenty mortals all knelt in front of the Golden Lion, an Ancient God.
This made the Golden Lion burst into laughter, full of sarcasm.
He looked at the Great Emperor and said, “Great Emperor Heavenly Venerate, these are the Human Race you protect?
So lowly, as insignificant as maggots, you stake your life for their salvation?”
At this point, the Golden Lion exclaimed, “Yet these members of the Human Race, they do have loyalty and righteousness.
Actually kneeling down to me, quite unexpected indeed.”
The Great Emperor’s eyes turned red, and he glared fiercely at the Golden Lion, his heart filled with murderous intent.
Seeing the Great Emperor Heavenly Venerate’s expression, the Golden Lion became somewhat annoyed.
With a cold laugh, he said, “You’re angry now?
Really want to kill me?
If that’s the case, there’s no need for me to spare them, I’ll kill them first.”
Having said that, the Golden Lion made his move, intending to annihilate that group of mortals.
“You dare.”
The Great Emperor bellowed furiously.
However, the Golden Lion paid it no mind, a hand descending towards the mortals, filled with lethal intent.
The Great Emperor couldn’t help but close his eyes, unable to stop him, because he had already sustained serious injuries.
At this point, even if he wanted to rush to their aid, he couldn’t make it over, unable to rescue these people.
He could only watch helplessly as they were about to be slaughtered.
Even with the rage in his heart, he was powerless to act.
Suddenly, the Golden Lion was sent flying out, a hand gripping his throat.
“Who are you?”
The shocked Golden Lion exclaimed.
He was frightened by the person who had suddenly appeared.
The other was also a Heavenly Venerate, and at the pinnacle of that realm.
The disparity between their realms was not great, something the Golden Lion could sense.
But the gap in their strengths was terrifyingly wide.
When the other party made their move, he simply couldn’t avoid it.
Even, the Golden Lion had a feeling that if the other party wished, killing him would be as easy as crushing an ant.
Who exactly was this?
Why so powerful?
The Celestial Immortals who were besieging the Great Emperor had also stopped their attacks, looking somewhat at a loss at the scene before them.
They realized their invincible Golden Lion in their hearts was being held like a tiny chick in someone’s hand, completely powerless to resist.
This realization shocked them, leaving them unsure of how to react.
Who was this person?
How could they possess such formidable power?
The Great Emperor too was slightly startled, then showed a hint of joy.
Although he did not recognize the newcomer, he could sense that the other was a being from a future generation; that kind of aura was unmistakable.
If it was a future generation being, then he was definitely not there to oppose them.
As for who the other was, the Great Emperor didn’t care much.
As long as the other was there to save these mortals, that was enough.
“In your eyes, mortals are like ants, but in my eyes, you are just an ant too, even less than ants,” Sun Wukong said indifferently, his voice carrying a chill.
“Who are you?
Do not kill me, I am a subordinate of the Lord of Heaven Ancestor,” the Golden Lion said with difficulty.
He revealed his connection to the Lord of Heaven Ancestor,
Sun Wukong’s eyebrows raised; Lord of Heaven Ancestor?
What was that?
He hadn’t heard of it.
With a cold laugh, Sun Wukong said, “What Lord of Heaven Ancestor?
I’ve never heard of it.
It’s not like any Tom, Dick, or Harry can intimidate me.”
Hearing Sun Wukong’s words, the Great Emperor couldn’t help but remind him, “This Immortal, the Lord of Heaven Ancestor is no ordinary person; he is a Supreme Level powerhouse, on par with the Ancestral Dragon and others.”
The Great Emperor knew that this powerful being of a later generation probably hadn’t heard of the name Lord of Heaven Ancestor.
Otherwise, his reaction wouldn’t be like this; he would surely be wary.
Sun Wukong was slightly taken aback.
So the Lord of Heaven Ancestor was so formidable; it seemed he had underestimated him.
A Supreme Level powerhouse?
No wonder his subordinates were so arrogant.
But, would he be afraid of a Supreme Level powerhouse?
The answer was no.
Even the beginner Qilin Sun Wukong dared to provoke again and again; let alone a Lord of Heaven Ancestor whom he had never even heard of.
“So what?”
Sun Wukong responded.
The Great Emperor was slightly taken aback, not quite understanding Sun Wukong’s intention.
Telling Sun Wukong about the true identity of the Lord of Heaven Ancestor was to prevent him from clashing with the Lord of Heaven Ancestor.
