Chapter 820 - Heavenly Emperor Stepping Out
Although they did not understand how he defied the natural order or fate, they did understand history. Historically, with the emergence of such an astonishing and extinct genius, certainly there would be countless stepping stones for him to step into his position.
From the human countries, to the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, to the Sound of Thunder Sect and Heavenly Punishing Villa, and finally to the current Heavenly Emperor Gate, clearly these were all stepping stones back to the top position in the land.
Currently, the seventh summoning from the Heavenly Emperor Xin Tianwen didn’t prove capable of making these three sects turn their heads. When facing the survival of the sect, naturally these three sects could not stay still. Even if they were to risk displeasing Xin Tianwen, they would not be bothered by it if he were to seek their fault afterwards.
Additionally, they made such choice for it was the same for they would not view the Xin Clan to win in the final battle.
Naturally, when seven imperial summonings could not call back the leaders of these three sects, Xin Tianwen was furious. He almost wanted to kill off these three sets and take their heads.
“Cowards!” Xin Tianwen showed an ashen face and swore angrily. “A group of cowards, backing out before the battle, short-sighted! Cowards!”
As soon as the six leaders of the three sects withdrew, instantly the number of Supreme Dao elite warriors were thinned out. The Xin Clan had four, one from the Sound of Thunder Sect, two from the Heavenly Punishing Villa, and in total only seven were left.
Of course, in terms of this formation, they still held a clear advantage compared to the Qin Clan.
Although elite warriors kept breaking into the Supreme Dao Stage within these ten years, for elite warriors that entered the Supreme Dao STage, without twenty or thirty years of accumulation, how could they be considered on par with true Coagulate Supreme Dao warriors who had passed the advanced calamities?
Therefore, in the Qin Clan, besides Qin Xiaotian, only Qin Yunran and Qin Chongyang could pose as potential threats. Those newly emerged Supreme Dao elite warriors were nothing to worry about.
“Your majesty, these three sects claim to have been attacked, could it be their disintegrating way of getting out by colluding together?” Xin Tianwu could not help but ask.
“Strategy?” Xin Tianwen said with a cold sneer. “Don’t underestimate these guys. Although they don’t have too much skill, they do have profound sophisticated minds. With the Qin Clan’s annihilation at hand, if something had not truly happened, how could they abandon their current opportunity and leave? Something fishy is definitely going on here.”
Yan Guinan of the Heavenly Punishing Villa said with a grave expression, “Your majesty, could it be that surviving member of the Qin Clan has returned to the Xuan Yuan Mound and attacked those three sects?”
“From the Qin Clan? You mean Qin Wushuang?” Whenever Xin Tianwen heard words related to the Qin Clan, he felt incredibly annoyed inwardly.
“Yes, among the surviving members of the Qin Clan, only this Qin Wushuang is a mortal malady. The others are nothing,” Yan Guinan said seriously.
“Isn’t that kid at the Heavenly Fire Southern Border? A few days ago there was proof of him appearing at the Southern Border. In just a few days, even if he knew how to fly or had wings, he could not have flown this fast!”
Xin Tianwen denied this possibility directly.
Yan Guinan gave a long sigh. “Ever since that kid started on martial arts, he has always appeared and disappeared as unpredictably as a ghost. I am just worried that the Heavenly Fire Southern Border was only a diversionary tactic and a trick.”
These words clearly made a puzzled look on Xin Tianwen’s face. Murderous intentions flashed across his eyes and vividly, he also perceived a trace of ominous premonition. Inwardly, he thought, “Could it be I have been played by that kid again? Those three great sects endured all these ten years, how come they became ostriches after returning to the sect once? Something majorly frightening must have occurred. Or else, with the annihilation of the Qin Clan at hand, it would be unreasonable for them not to come pick up such an advantage!”
Thinking here and revealing profound eyes, Xin Tianwen shouted, “Tianchen, go visit the three sects, you must investigate the cause of the matter.”
“Yes!” Xin Tianchen took the order, and asked again, “Your majesty, should I threaten them to come back here?”
“Humph, not now. When we breach the Qin Clan, we will make them regret their decision. By that time, we shall settle this old debt with them!” Xin Tianwen said with a ruthless tone.
This time, he was truly angered. Being the most honorable Heavenly Emperor, he had given seven imperial orders to the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates. Even the Qin and the Yun Clan from the past would not dare to neglect him.
These three sects, as they were existences as little as moles and crickets, they dared to be this impolite?
“Tianchen, these three sects are connected in one branch, you will know what’s going on by going to one of them. The two leaders of the Mysterious Reform Gate are slightly more modest. Go find out at the Mysterious Reform Gate.”
After Xin Tianchen went, he rushed back in less than a day. When he walked into the camp, he was wearing an ashen face as if he had met a major saboteur.
“Your majesty, indeed... Indeed that Qin Wushuang, the escaped member of the Qin Clan, the malevolent one returns to haunt us!” The hatred Xin Tianchen had towards Qin Wushuang was no lesser than Xin Tianwen.
“Was it really him?” Xin Tianwen’s expression clearly became sluggish as a brush of anger flashed across the corner of his eyes.
“Your majesty, the leader of the Mysterious Reform Gate already said clearly that it was not because they were unwilling to exert their efforts, but Qin Wushuang left vicious words with them. As soon as they take one step out of the sect, he will definitely destroy their clan.” Xin Tianchen said angrily, “Could that kid be a fly? How did he come to the Heavenly Emperor Mountain without making a noise? Is he not afraid to die?”
Yan Guinan and his brother Yan Beifei exchanged a glance, as a trace of uneasiness swayed across their hearts at the same time. Since Qin Wushuang made a move against the three sects, could it be he would not make a move on the Heavenly Punishing Villa?
That attack from ten years ago was still vivid in their minds. Although it was not a fatal strike, it was clear Qin Wushuang showcased much more confidence upon his return after ten years. If he killed within the Heavenly Punishing Villa directly, certainly he would launch a severe strike. Upon thinking here, the expression on these two brothers also became complicated.
“Qin Wushuang!” Fire almost gushed out from Xin Tianwen’s eyes.
“Your majesty, this Qin Wushuang is already our major trouble, if we do not take him out, he will certainly become a great calamity,” Lei Yue could not but help to speak.
“Yes, your majesty, now as that Qin Wushuang scuttles back to the Heavenly Emperor Mountain to initiate such strategic moves, it proves that he does not have sufficient skills to resist the Heavenly Emperor Gate. This is the last chance to kill him. If we miss this chance and allow him to get out of the Xuan Yuan Mound, it would be tremendously difficult to pursue him,” Xin Tianchen also suggested.
Xin Tianwen said with a low voice, “Currently, the annihilation of the Qin Clan is right before us, that Qin Wushuang is playing such tricks to attract our attention. This is his evil scheme, we must be vigilant of it.”
“However, that kid would not show up if he is only playing some evil tricks...” Yan Guinan wanted to say something but hesitated. Clearly, he was most worried of Qin Wushuang attacking the Heavenly Punishing Villa.
“Your majesty, Qin Wushuang’s subordinates once attacked my Heavenly Punishing Villa. If that Qin Wushuang were to harass my sect again, no one from my sect would be capable of defending against him,” Yan Beifei said explicitly what he wanted.
Lei Yue also nodded. “Yes, the worry of those three sects are at this point. If your majesty could solve our personal troubles, I believe that all sects will exert all their efforts back.”
Xin Tianwen shot an indifferent glance at the elite warriors of these two sects. He did not decline to comment, yet a strange color flashed in his eyes. After a moment, he nodded. “Since you are following my Heavenly Emperor Gate Xin Clan, if the rear is not stabilized, it’s difficult to make you guys be calm and collected. Anyways, since that kid has appeared, I shall meet him personally. Let’s see just what kind of three heads and six arms this kid has!”
The Heavenly Emperor would step out?
“Your majesty, you have used your divine soul to initiate the Nirvana Heavenly Plow, you are still injured.” Xin Tianchen became anxious.
Xin Tianwen gently shook his head. “These light injuries will not influence my performance. The Qin Clan is already an object in my knack. It would not pose a great influence whether we collect earlier or later. If the Qin Clan wants to turn the tide, it would be difficult for them to even breathe without ten or eight years of recovery. When I chase to kill this Qin Wushuang, at most three months, there will be results!”
“Brilliant your majesty, formidable, your majesty!”
Xin Tianwen stood up and began to move. Transforming into nothing, he already floated to leave the Aspiring Throne Mountain. When Xin Tianwen dared to play big, it was also because Qin Xiaotian was already on the verge of death. It was impossible for him to regain his health in a short period. Even an ordinary Supreme Dao elite warrior was enough to take his life.
Without this major threat such as Qin Xiaotian, regardless of Qin Yunran or Qin Chongyang, they were not enough to threaten Xin Tianchen and the rest of the elite warriors.
Therefore, Xin Tianwen was free of any fears of troubles in the rear. He could chase to kill Qin Wushuang with his full concentration.
Xin Tianwen urged the Heavenly Emperor Wings and soared in between the skies. After he flew about one hundred thousand miles, he arrived on top of a deep valley full of curling mist.
He chanted a spell and entered into these clouds and mist with motion as fast as lightning.
“Old guy, it’s time to wake up?” Xin Tianwen’s spiritual perception pierced the peacefulness of this deep misty valley like a sharp blade.
A hiss brimming with formidable power emerged from the deep valley. In a split second, it sounded as if thunder arrived in formation. The rolling chant shook the entire mountain valley to shiver.
“Xin Tianwen, you are here?” A vigorous voice spoke with a somewhat unripe tone. This tone sounded like a person who had yet to speak for a few hundred years. It appeared to be somewhat awkward sounding.
“Saber Beard, it’s been nine hundred years, it was not a short nap you took.” Xin Tianwen asked with a simple smile, “Alright, let me see just which stage have you reached. Everyone says that the divine beast of the Xuan Yuan Mound has almost become extinct. Are they not slapping your face, Saber Beard?”
“Humph, the prejudice of the secular world, no need to care about it. If I am to come out again, certainly I will make it rain blood. Xin Tianwen, are you confident that you can handle me?”
“Sir Saber Beard, I never thought about handling you. This time, I have come to ask you to please honor your promise.”
Saber Beard fell into silence for a moment, and gave a long sigh. “Xin Tianwen, it appears that you have also broken into the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage. Nice nice, you do qualify for me to honor the promise. Alright, tell me, what do you want me to do? Initially for the three favors I promised you, this should be the last one, right?”
Xin Tianwen was brimming with joy when he heard this reply. “Sir Saber Beard, after this last favor is used, I will never disturb you again. Initially, because of your help, it allowed the Xin Clan to sit on the Heavenly Emperor Throne. Currently, someone threatens my clan from sitting on it. Therefore, without a choice, I must ask you to step out to help me kill someone.”
“Who?”
“A disciple of the Qin Clan, he is called Qin Wushuang!”
Saber Beard said with disdain, “A disciple of the Qin Clan? Since when has the Xin Clan fallen to the stage that you cannot even take care of a disciple of the Qin Clan? If it’s not Qin Xiaotian, who from the Qin Clan is capable of threatening you?”
