Chapter 243: Chapter 242: Suppression"The ancestor will emerge in an hour, young friend; please wait here a moment," the sovereign of Lie Tian Heavenly Country said slowly. This time, the sovereign did not carry the same overwhelming arrogance as before, but there was still an inherent indifference, likely born from long-standing tenure in a lofty position. Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed slightly as he said in a soft, drawn-out tone, "You don’t really think I came here just to have a discussion with you, do you?" Ye Xuan’s gaze was deep and distant, like the eternal starry sky, looking down upon all the beings of heaven and earth. Feeling Ye Xuan’s gaze, the sovereign’s heart quivered slightly. This fellow, as expected, is no ordinary person. In the past, this young man was outrageously arrogant within the Imperial City, and at that time, it seemed like nothing more than ranting lunacy, lawless and unrestrained. Yet viewing it now, one could realize that Ye Xuan’s seemingly nonsensical raving could actually be taken for granted. Especially since he learned from Hua Yunfei that the ancestor of Ancient Yun Shang Country, along with the strong from the five major powers, all perished at Ye Xuan’s hand, he was taken to the extreme of shock. But just now, Yunfei had already transmitted a message to him, saying that Ye Xuan no longer had that strength. The power to slay the ancestor of Ancient Yun Shang Country had now disappeared without a trace. After a moment of contemplation, the sovereign said, "Then may I ask, young friend, what are your thoughts?" "Give him ten minutes to appear before me," Ye Xuan said indifferently. He came here to trouble Hua Tianqiong, not to wait for someone. A regal and domineering aura enveloped the sovereign, whose face was obscured, but upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words, he replied slowly, "I’m afraid that won’t be possible." "Oh?" Ye Xuan let out a small laugh. The Eternal Emperor Soul stirred ever so slightly. An overwhelmingly dominant aura suddenly burst forth, filling the entire air. The whole grand hall was instantly packed with a terrifying power. Boom! In an instant, the sovereign’s throne crumbled to pieces, and the sovereign himself was pressed to the ground, struggling in vain to rise. Cold sweat began to emerge on the sovereign’s forehead. He was literally scared into a cold sweat. The hazy aura around the sovereign was directly shaken and scattered. And the sovereign finally revealed his true face. He was a dignified middle-aged man. Of course, at this moment, the sovereign lacked his usual regality and instead appeared utterly disheveled. If someone were to witness this scene, it would undoubtedly be shocking. A sovereign, pressed to the ground, unable to move. "This is impossible!" a look of disbelief flashed through the sovereign’s eyes. Hua Yunfei had just told him that Ye Xuan no longer possessed that wild and overwhelming power. But now, Ye Xuan displayed such terrifying suppression again, pinning the sovereign down instantly. Was this the lack of power he spoke of? Ye Xuan looked at the sovereign with a detached expression and said, not too quickly nor too slowly, "Do you feel arrogant because you think I no longer have the power to slay the ancestor of Ancient Yun Shang Country?" The sovereign was now frightened at heart, not daring to answer. He had an intuition that it would only take a thought for Ye Xuan to kill him. seaʀᴄh thё nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. This fellow’s strength had completely surpassed everyone’s imagination! At this moment, outside the palace, the Forbidden Army had already gathered in full force, watching Ye Xuan in the hall as though facing a formidable enemy. Nobody expected this fellow to threaten the sovereign! "All of you, retreat!" the sovereign bellowed. He was well aware that if these men dared to make a move, it would surely be his death. Upon hearing the sovereign’s command, the faces of the Forbidden Army’s experts changed slightly, but they dared not defy the royal decree and retreated from the palace. It was only because they had not entered the grand hall; otherwise, they would realize that they couldn’t even come close to Ye Xuan. Seeing that all the Forbidden Army had retreated, the sovereign then said, "I will go and report to the ancestor immediately." The sovereign, no longer referring to himself as ’We.’ "Hmm," Ye Xuan murmured as he picked a spot and sat down casually. Boom! The fearsome power instantly receded like a tide. It was only then that the sovereign could catch his breath, with a hint of fear flickering in his eyes. He didn’t dare to say more and promptly headed towards the innermost depths of the Imperial Palace. The Emperor knew very well that if he dared to continue playing tricks at this point, he would surely be the one to die. This Ye Xuan had become terrifying to the point that he inspired fear in others. "This youngster’s time has come, I’m afraid I won’t be able to provoke him any longer..." The Emperor sighed in his heart. His original plan was to ask the Blood Hunting King of the Blood Killing Sect to secretly take Ye Xuan out. Who would have thought that Ye Xuan would turn the tables and kill the Blood Hunting King, as well as slap to death the people from the five major forces and the ancestor of Ancient Yun Shang Country. "It’s just uncertain whether Thunder Cloud Mountain can swallow Emperor Immortal Sect or not. If they can’t, it seems the ten-thousand-li radius around the Tian Qing Mountain Range is poised for a change..." The Emperor had a premonition that if this time the Ancient Yun Shang Country and Thunder Cloud Mountain failed in their move against Emperor Immortal Sect, the sect would rise to power completely. By then. The dynamics within the ten-thousand-li radius around Tian Qing Mountain Range would be completely rewritten. At that time, Emperor Immortal Sect which had always been in a weak position would likely leap to become the overlord of the region. Just thinking of it made the Emperor’s mood heavy. He could only hope for his great-grandfather now... At this very moment. Ye Xuan was alone in the Imperial Palace’s grand hall, silently cultivating. Half a stick of incense’s time was his limit of patience. If Hua Tianqiong still didn’t show up. Then he couldn’t be blamed for being ruthless. It must be said that the grand hall of the Lie Tian Heavenly Country’s Imperial Palace carried nature’s spiritual energy that was even more superior than that of Emperor Immortal Sect’s Daoist arena. Cultivating here yielded twice the result with half the effort. Here, Ye Xuan made up his mind that once he returned to the sect, he would have to rebuild a large Spirit Gathering Array. The Spirit Gathering Array of Emperor Immortal Sect was too outdated and ineffective. As this continued, the nature’s spiritual energy within Emperor Immortal Sect would naturally fall short compared to other cultivation sacred lands. During Ye Xuan’s cultivation, a period of time enough to drink a cup of tea went by. Hua Tianqiong, the ancestor of Lie Tian Heavenly Country, appeared. This time, the Emperor was absent. "May I know the reason Junior has sought this old one?" Hua Tianqiong descended into the grand hall and, sitting cross-legged in the void, looked calmly at Ye Xuan. Hua Tianqiong still had the same appearance as before, with half of his face being a void, revealing ghostly pale bones, which looked extremely odd. Ye Xuan stopped his cultivation and exhaled a breath of stale air. Without looking at Hua Tianqiong, he spoke lightly, "You broke the rules, so the Golden Pond goes back to Emperor Immortal Sect." "What?" Hua Tianqiong paused for a moment, not understanding at first, and then said, "Junior’s words seem a bit off. What do you mean ’we broke the rules’?" "What did I say at Wansheng Mountain Arena that day?" Ye Xuan spoke lightly. On hearing this, Hua Tianqiong slightly narrowed his eyes and said, "One must provide evidence in all matters. During this Golden Pond event, I granted all thirty-one slots, and also made the people of Lie Tian Heavenly Country not target your sect, right?" "You gave the slots, but can you really say that you did not target us?" Ye Xuan smiled faintly and said calmly, "The adopted son of the Emperor of your Lie Tian Heavenly Country incited those who did not get slots to act against Emperor Immortal Sect, and furthermore, hired the Blood Killing Sect to assassinate me. Is this your so-called not targeting?" Hua Tianqiong’s expression remained unchanged as he replied slowly, "I knew nothing of this." Ye Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "In that case, you, as the ancestor of Lie Tian Heavenly Country, are truly fulfilling your role." Detecting the mockery in Ye Xuan’s words, Hua Tianqiong replied slowly, "I don’t have the time to be concerned with these matters, and besides, this trip to the Golden Pond turned out to be Perfect for your Emperor Immortal Sect, didn’t it?" "Instead of wasting time speaking with me, you might as well go back and see how Emperor Immortal Sect is faring now." Hua Tianqiong said with a touch of impatience. Even though he knew Ye Xuan possessed a very powerful force, he wasn’t afraid at all; this was the Lie Tian Heavenly Country’s Imperial Palace, and with the blessing of the country’s fortune, he was definitely beyond comparison with the ancestor of Ancient Yun Shang Country. His previous deference was only because of Zhou Chaolong. But now, Zhou Chaolong was busy fighting with the ancestor of Thunder Cloud Mountain, so how would he have the time to come here? Therefore, in facing Ye Xuan, Hua Tianqiong’s attitude was as arrogant as ever. "Are you, perhaps, quite impatient?" Ye Xuan’s eyes shifted slightly as he regarded Hua Tianqiong and spoke with a deliberate rhythm. The Eternal Emperor Soul slowly began to unfold. The entire grand hall was once again filled with a terrifying force. Hua Tianqiong was instantly knocked from the air to the ground, crashing down with a thunderous sound. "What!?" Sensing that frightening aura that pressured heaven and earth, Hua Tianqiong was completely stunned.
