BXBX NOVEL Chapter 66
Chapter 66
It seemed Yan Ling was prepared to forsake even the All Pleasure Sect, likely having prepared thoroughly.
“Holy Son, you flatter me. Why shouldn’t I appear? The vast realm of the Nine Heavens is mine to roam freely. Besides, who would dare to kill me upon my appearance, and who could stop me?” Wuji Old Demon revealed a confident smile.
Of course, his confidence was based on solid reasons. As a Great Saint-level existence, Wuji Old Demon was among the top powerhouses in the Nine Heavens Realm, mastering countless techniques, making those who wished to kill him few and far between.
As his words fell, a streak of cold light, seemingly from nowhere, arrived not with a grand oppressive force but with the will to annihilate everything. The subtle sword intent spread out at an unimaginable speed towards Wuji Old Demon.
Facing this formidable sword intent, Wuji Old Demon’s eyes flashed with a dark light, and a human skull floated up in his palm.
With a bang, the skull emitted a black light, filled with a ghastly and sinister aura. The black divine light collided with the cold light, unleashing boundless power. The sky shattered, and the emperors crumbled, turning everything within tens of thousands of miles to dust.
“The sword intent of Snow Moon Immortal is as sharp as ever! However, I did not come here to clash with Snow Moon Immortal, but merely to take Yan Ruyu with me. As the saintess of the Huan Huan Sect, Yan Ruyu is needed to inherit the sect’s legacy. I hope Snow Moon Immortal can oblige,” Wuji Old Demon said, while his aura continued to rise, insinuating a threat.
“Surely Snow Moon Immortal wouldn’t want the Primordial Holy Son to fall here, right? Even if you are powerful, I can hold you off for a while, but how can the Primordial Holy Son withstand Lord Yan Ling? The Primordial Holy Son, being only at the Great Master realm, is no match for her!” Wuji Old Demon chuckled.
Seeing this, Yan Ruyu trembled and took a deep breath, softly saying, “Holy Son, perhaps I should go with them.”
“Go where?” Jiang Chen glared at Yan Ruyu, stating, “With me here, who dares to take you away?”
“Primordial Holy Son, this is not a matter of whether you are willing or not,” Yan Ling stepped forward, her aura of the Saint King realm bursting forth.
Although Jiang Chen was monstrously talented, the gap was still too vast in front of a Saint King. Even a whiff of her aura could oppress him tremendously, only his Primordial Origin Body keeping him from collapsing.
Yan Ling was somewhat surprised; her aura should have been enough to make a Great Master or even a Saint fall, yet Jiang Chen remained steadfast.
“I believe this is a matter of whether the Primordial Holy Son is willing or not!” A hearty voice sounded. Along with it, a hand emerged from the void, reaching straight for Yan Ling. The aura was vast and more profound than hers!
“Qin Ruhu, why are you here?” Yan Ling’s face changed drastically at Qin Ruhu’s appearance, which was completely unexpected.
“It seems I’ve been secluded for too long, and the world has forgotten me. Even my brother is recognized, but not I,” another voice echoed, accompanied by a majestic aura that suppressed the surrounding laws and the Great Dao, causing them to wail.
“The Emperor of Great Qin!” Not only Yan Ling but also Wuji Old Demon was stunned. Not just a prince from the Great Qin royal family had arrived, but the Emperor of Great Qin himself.
—
Wuji Old Demon felt his scalp tingle. Facing Snow Moon Immortal alone, he could still remain calm, even if he couldn’t defeat her, he could hold her off for a while. But now, with the appearance of Qin Ruhu and even the Emperor of Great Qin, his heart turned cold.
“You’re really quite arrogant. I thought it would take you some time to show up,” Jiang Chen coldly chuckled. “I didn’t expect that not long after the leaving Ancestral Dragon City, you’d dare to show your faces. You really don’t take the Great Qin Dynasty seriously, do you?”
Knowing the plot, Jiang Chen had long known that Yan Ling, in order to please the Extreme Path Demon Sect, would attempt to take Yan Ruyu away. Of course, she couldn’t do it alone and would naturally seek help from the Extreme Path Demon Sect.
Given the temperament of the sect’s demon god son, he definitely couldn’t wait and would make the sect take action. They definitely wouldn’t dare to make a move while in the Primordial Holy Land or Ancestral Dragon City, where there were too many strong individuals.
So, it had to be when leaving Ancestral Dragon City. Jiang Chen just didn’t expect them to be so bold as to make their move within the territory of the Great Qin Dynasty. They really didn’t place the Great Qin Dynasty in their eyes.
“You knew from the beginning we would make a move!” Not just Yan Ling but even Wuji Old Demon were shocked. Their plan was incredibly secretive; how did this Primordial Holy Son know?
“That’s not for you to know. You all can make your move now,” Jiang Chen said indifferently.
As his voice fell, the three of them made their move simultaneously, and Yan Ling and Wuji Old Demon were dragged into the endless void by the combined effort of the three. For strong individuals of their level, making a move outside would likely devastate the entire Great Qin Dynasty.
“Thinking of leaving?” Seeing the demon god son attempting to flee, Jiang Chen coldly snorted, easily capturing him with a reach of his hand as if catching a small chicken. In front of Jiang Chen, the he had no power to resist.
“Impossible! Why do I have no power to fight back! When you clashed with Huang Qingtian, you weren’t this strong!” The demon god son was utterly baffled.
Even though he was not as powerful as these individuals, the gap shouldn’t be this vast. He was the demon child of the Extreme Path Demon Sect, supposedly on par with the divine children of the ancient imperial clans in terms of strength and talent.
Even with a significant gap, he should have had some power to resist. But in front of Jiang Chen, he had none!
“Why would you think I was at full strength back then?” Jiang Chen looked at him oddly. During his battle with Huang Qingtian, he hadn’t even used his Primordial Origin Body. He restrained himself, partly not wanting to be too ostentatious and partly because it was rare to encounter a decent opponent and he wanted to enjoy the battle.
A direct crush would have been too joyless. But the biggest reason was to keep some cards hidden. If he exposed everything too soon, death wouldn’t be far away.
“You’ve been hiding your strength all along!” The demon god son was stunned. Jiang Chen had faced Huang Qingtian, one of the top geniuses of the Nine Heavens Realm, and still held back his strength. This realization terrified him, making him realize the true extent of Jiang Chen’s power.
