1485: Chapter 1485: Dugu Tianzong vs Su Emperor 1485: Chapter 1485: Dugu Tianzong vs Su Emperor “Do you recognize Us?”
Qin Jun coldly gazed at the middle-aged man and asked, while Sun Wukong, Ji Haoye, Zhao Yun, and the others also fixed their eyes on him, making his Primordial Spirit flicker like a candle in the night, at any moment it could be snuffed out by the wind.
“Who are you?” The middle-aged man asked cautiously.
“Us?
We are the Grandfather of the Universe’s Most Esteemed!” Qin Jun harrumphed.
Universe’s Most Esteemed?
The hall fell into sudden silence, and the middle-aged man was also stunned, trying hard to recall who the Universe’s Most Esteemed was.
Soon, the face of the middle-aged man turned green, and even in the state of a Primordial Spirit, one could see his complexion change.
“You’re toying with me!”
The middle-aged man was nearly driven mad, never having encountered such a situation before.
“You refuse to accept this?” Qin Jun asked, his neck twisting.
“Of course, I…”
Before the middle-aged man could finish his sentence, a fierce blaze quickly enveloped his Primordial Spirit, eliciting a scream of agony from him, swiftly burning him to ash.
This blaze came from Ji Haoye.
Thus, a Supreme Saint of the Unbounded Chaos met his demise.
The man in black kneeling on the ground nearly cried out in fright, his hands propping him up off the ground, his scalp numb, daring not to raise his head.
Fear was filling his heart, but he was also wondering who exactly Qin Jun was.
Qiao’er and all the disciples of the Huo Family watched in shock; they were as silent as the grave, not daring to release any of their emotions.
Huo Xundi, on the other hand, couldn’t contain his excitement, shaking all over, unable to suppress it.
Ji Qiankun, with a smile, hooked his arm around his neck and said, “How about that?
Me bringing His Majesty here, that’s quite the scene, right?”
“Pssh, you’re the one who invited him?”
Huo Xundi rolled his eyes, the two had grown up together, almost as close as wearing the same pair of split pants, so they knew each other extremely well.
Qin Jun then spoke to the man in black, “Off you go, and relay to the Universe’s Most Esteemed of the North: Do not bother the Huo Family again!
Otherwise, next time it will be the life of the Invincible Sovereign at stake!”
Upon hearing these words, the man in black felt a bone-chilling cold wind sweep over him, frightening him so much that he quickly got up and left.
The mere five words ‘Invincible Sovereign’ were enough to scare him to death.
He didn’t dare to stay any longer, in the blink of an eye, he had already flown out of the Huo Family’s universe, fleeing at full speed, in case Qin Jun would change his mind.
“Alright, let the disciples all leave!”
Qin Jun gestured, and Huo Xundi immediately ordered all the disciples of the Huo Family to disperse, then with a wave of his right hand, all traces of blood and flesh in the hall disappeared without a trace, even the stench of blood was gone.
Next, Qin Jun began to inquire about the situation of the Huo Family.
Warlord Huo Qubing had left the Huo Family long ago to fend for himself, seeking his own fortunes and opportunities.
Due to the limitations of his talent and qi movement, his cultivation could progress no further than that of the Invincible Great Emperor.
Under Huo Xundi’s leadership, the Huo Family had been relatively tranquil, until he met Qiao’er.
Love comes suddenly, always seizing one when they least expect it.
Even though he already had three wives and four concubines, Huo Xundi was still captivated by Qiao’er’s charm, and the two quickly fell into a passionate love, like dry tinder meeting a fierce flame, igniting instantly, and thus they pledged themselves to each other for life.
As the head of the Huo Family, Huo Xundi was born with a silver key in his mouth.
How could he live a life in hiding?
Hence, he prepared to hold a wedding banquet, also wanting to prove himself to Heavenly Venerable Xiao.
At this point, a bitter smile appeared on Huo Xundi’s face, and he said, “The pressure has indeed been great lately, but with Your Majesty here, I’m no longer afraid.”
In his heart, Qin Jun was not only His Majesty but also his elder.
Moreover, the Huo Family had revered and offered sacrifices to the Heavenly Emperor for generations, and Huo Qubing had also said that once the Heavenly Emperor returned, the Huo Family would have to serve under the Heavenly Emperor and serve Him.
After having led the family for billions of years, he was tired and didn’t want to carry the burden alone anymore.
“Hmm, don’t worry, with Us here, no one will dare to oppose this marriage!”
Qin Jun swirled his teacup, speaking as lightly as clouds and breeze, which made Qiao’er secretly puzzled; her gaze subconsciously swept over Ji Haoye, Xuandang, and the others.
Could this group of people possibly contend with her father, the emperor?
There was still one month left until Huo Xundi’s wedding banquet would begin, and Qin Jun did not intend to leave, choosing instead to stay here in order to prevent Heavenly Venerable Xiao from abducting Qiao’er ahead of time.
Meanwhile, the news that the head of the Huo Family had knelt before a mysterious strong figure began to spread throughout the Huo Family world.
“What?
The head of our family only kneels to the Warlord; how would he kneel to someone else?”
“It’s true, it is said that an Invincible strong figure sent by the Beizhou Great Path Venerable to subjugate our Huo Family has died!”
“An Invincible has died?
How come there was no disturbance?”
“Does this mean our Huo Family has a backer now?”
“As a man of the Huo Family, how can I depend on a foreign clan?”
For a time, there were various opinions stirring in the Huo Family world, with some clan elders and relatives all seeking out Huo Xundi.
On the cliff, Huo Xundi stood shoulder to shoulder with Huo Kong.
“Young Master, just who is that great person?” Huo Kong asked curiously.
He had once been a rival to Huo Qubing, defeated by him, and since then had been guarding the Huo Family.
As time passed, he witnessed generation after generation of the Huo Family, fusing thoroughly into the Huo Family, taking great concern in the matters of the Huo Family.
“He is the lord of my father.” Huo Xundi said softly, stroking a white pigeon in his hands, looking towards the magnificently undulating sea of clouds, smiling faintly.
Upon hearing this, Huo Kong’s eyes widened, stammering: “Could it be…
the…
Heavenly…”
No wonder Ji Haoye, Xuandang, Ji Qiankun, and the Chaos Twins were all gathered around that young man!
So it was the legendary Heavenly Emperor!
“Shush!
This matter must not be leaked!” Huo Xundi interrupted him.
Huo Kong nodded, endeavoring to calm his emotions.
The legend of the Heavenly Emperor was abundant, and as a general of the Huo Family, he had heard it countless times.
According to legend, even the Extreme Emperor and the Su Emperor, who were unmatched in the ancient Saint Emperor’s path, had been defeated by the hands of the Heavenly Emperor.
In the ancient Saint Emperor’s path, the Heavenly Emperor was a mythology!
“If it is truly him, my lord, you can be completely at ease!” Huo Kong said excitedly.
Huo Xundi nodded with a smile, then changed the topic, saying: “Uncle Kong, I think it’s time for me to pass on the title.”
“Why do you say that?” Huo Kong asked, puzzled.
“I’ve disappointed His Majesty.
After all, my strength is insufficient.
I plan to venture out into the world after my marriage,” Huo Xundi calmly stated, but Huo Kong could feel the tumultuous waves within him.
“Go ahead, the Huo Family has me!” Huo Kong said with a laugh, as the master and servant gazed forward, as if recounting the tales of life’s past.
…
In the ancient Saint Emperor’s path, Dugu Tianzong was hurtling through, his injuries seemed to have healed at this moment, regaining his original prideful demeanor, his presence lofty above all living beings.
He was hurrying in the direction of the Huo Family’s universe.
“This time, I will definitely make you pay the price!”
Dugu Tianzong’s face was as cold as frost while he muttered under his breath.
During this period, he had returned to the Dugu Family for recuperation and brought the family treasure with him.
Because he understood that Heavenly Venerable Xiao was pressuring the Huo Family, and the head of the Huo Family, Huo Qubing, was a subordinate of the Heavenly Emperor, it was certain that the Heavenly Emperor would attend the upcoming wedding banquet.
If he could cooperate with Heavenly Venerable Xiao, the Heavenly Emperor would undoubtedly die!
Dugu Tianzong appeared to have already seen the scene of Qin Jun’s death, his face revealing a grim smile.
At that moment, he suddenly frowned, looking ahead, seeing a white figure approaching leisurely.
Upon closer inspection, the person was clad in garments white as snow, his long hair black and shining, his handsome face covered with bloodstains; it was the Su Emperor.
Compared to his demeanor during the Chaos period, his aura was even colder, his eyes hollow as if he was a walking corpse.
“Su…
Su Emperor…”
Dugu Tianzong’s eyes widened, nearly terrified out of his wits.
