Chapter 3816: Emperor of Gods

Xu Tong Yuan, the Black Dragon Elder of the Flying Dragon Sect, was an advanced Lord of Gods who was skilled in Formations. He was one of the top three Formation masters in the Flying Dragon Sect. Earlier, when he attacked Linghu Ren Jie, he had unleashed a wind blade from a quadruple Fused Profundity from the law of wind. It would be easy to kill a rudimentary Lord of Gods with that wind blade. He really did not expect that his attack would be stopped at the critical moment by another person. Most importantly, the other person did not even move before his attack was destroyed by a Divine Energy barrier.

Xu Tong Yuan looked at the figure in front of him in shock.

The figure belonged to a beautiful woman.

Xu Tong Yuan’s expression changed drastically when he sensed the Divine Energy from the barrier. His eyes were brimming with fear as he thought to himself, ‘She’s an Emperor of Gods!’

How could Xu Tong Yuan not be afraid? Even in the emperor-rank Flying Dragon Sect, there was currently no Emperor of Gods. The sect only retained its rank due to the past Emperors of Gods. Many of the Emperor of Gods died during their once-in-a-1,000-years Heavenly Tribulation, and a few of them simply went missing.

Xu Tong Yuan inhaled deeply to calm down the fear and unease in his heart, but his trembling body gave away his fear. He said, “Greetings. I’m Xu Tong Yuan, a Black Dragon Elder from the Flying Dragon Sect.”

At the same time, question after question appeared in his mind. ‘How’s this possible? How did things turn out like this? Why is an Emperor of Gods here? Isn’t the Linghu clan just a lord-rank clan?’

Under normal circumstances, it would be easy for Xu Tong Yuan to destroy an entire lord-rank force with no intermediate Lord of Gods, let alone killing just their leader. However, he did not know what to do now that an Emperor of Gods appeared to protect Linghu Ren Jie.

‘How can an Emperor of Gods appear in this place? Was I lied to?’

Xu Tong Yuan had lived for tens of thousands of years and had learned to remain composed in most situations. Alas, this was one of the situations where he could not just remain calm. After all, he was facing an Emperor of Gods who could easily kill him. All he wanted now was to live.

Out of fear, he had brought out the identity token he had hidden before entering Linghu City. Initially, he hid it so the murder of Linghu Ren Jie would not be traced back to him. If the Linghu clan made a fuss, the Flying Dragon Sect would definitely hold him accountable. Although it was not a big issue, it was not a small issue either. No matter what, the Linghu clan was a subordinate of the Flying Dragon Sect. However, at this moment, he hoped that his identity as a Black Dragon Elder of the Flying Dragon Sect would be able to save him.

“You’re a Black Dragon Elder of Flying Dragon Sect, an advanced Lord of Gods, and yet, you snuck into the Linghu clan to kill their clan leader. I wonder what did my elder brother do that you had to kill him?”

The beautiful woman, who looked like she was in her thirties, was dressed in a fine long pale-yellow dress. She looked graceful when she moved. Her bearing was extraordinary, and her face was capable of enchanting those who looked at her.

‘Elder brother? Linghu Ren Jie is this Emperor of Gods’ brother? Impossible!’ Xu Tong Yuan thought to himself in shock as his body trembled. He tried to calm down again before he looked at Linghu Ren Jie, who was standing behind the beautiful woman, and said, “My lord, I made a mistake. You’re not the person I was looking for.”

Xu Tong Yuan was so frightened at this moment that he could only come up with a flimsy excuse.

At this time, Linghu Ren Jie looked at Xu Tong Yuan mockingly as he said, “Elder Xu, are you sure you made a mistake? Although this is the first time we’ve met, I’ve long heard about you. Not only are you a Black Dragon Elder, but you’re also one of the top three Formation masters in the Flying Dragon Sect. If I’m not mistaken, you must’ve been ordered by Vice Sect Leader Xue to kill me, right?”

Although Linghu Ren Jie looked calm outwardly, he was still inwardly trembling from his close brush with death. He thought to himself, ‘A Black Dragon Elder was sent to kill me! I’m really lucky that Ren Feng arrived in time. Otherwise, I would’ve died!’

At this moment, Xu Tong Yuan could no longer care about anything else. All he wanted was to live; it was not easy for him to cultivate to this stage. With this strength now, he could still survive about seven to eight Heavenly Tribulations. In other words, barring unnatural circumstances, he still had about 10,000 years to live. Hence, he did not hesitate to betray his master. “Yes, it was Vice Sect Leader Xue who sent me here!”

Then, Xu Tong Yuan bowed to Linghu Ren Jie, a rudimentary Lord of Gods who now controlled his life and death. “Clan Leader Linghu, I have no enmity with you. I only made a huge mistake because I owed Vice Sect Leader Xue a favor. Please forgive me. I promise to do whatever you ask of me as long as you forgive me!”

Regret flooded Xu Tong Yuan’s heart at this moment. If he knew this was the outcome, he would not have agreed to Vice Sect Leader Xue’s request.

Before Linghu Ren Jie could reply, the beautiful woman scoffed. With an expression of disdain on her face, she waved her hand casually.

In just an instant, a violent energy that twisted the fabric of space swept out toward Xu Tong Yuan.

Xu Tong Yuan’s expression changed drastically. His Divine Energy surged out of his body crazily as he tried to resist the attack. Alas, his strength was but a drop of water faced with his opponent’s sea-like attack.

Whoosh!

In just a blink of an eye, Xu Tong Yuan was reduced to ashes. Not even a speck of blood was left behind. The place he had stood just a moment ago was just like before.

Linghu Ren Jie heaved a sigh of relief. After calming down, he asked, “Ren Feng, I’ve long suspected you’re an Emperor of Gods, but I just couldn’t confirm it due to the difference in our strength.” A hint of distress could be seen in his eyes as he said, “You must’ve had a hard time in the Divine Offering Land all those years ago.”

The beautiful woman was Linghu Ren Feng, Linghu Ren Jie’s younger sister. When she was young, she left the Profound Energy Land and went to the Divine Offering Land. She did not return until recently. If it were not for her intact Soul Pearl, he would have thought she had died.

“Brother, there are some things that I don’t wish to talk about…” Linghu Ren Feng said as she shook her gently. A frown could be seen on her face as though she had just thought of something unpleasant.

“Very well.” Linghu Ren Jie sighed. “Girl, you’ve grown up now, and you’re much stronger than I am. I can’t and I won’t force you if you don’t want to talk about it. However, I want you to know that if you’re unhappy outside, you’ll always have a home here. Despite your strength, I don’t expect you to lead our clan to become an emperor-rank clan. I just want you to be happy and carefree like before. Before you went to Divine Offering Land, you were…”

Linghu Ren Feng interjected at this moment, “Brother, why was a Black Dragon Elder from the Flying Dragon Sect sent to kill you? Moreover, the person who sent him is a Vice Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect. How did you offend him?”

Linghu Ren Feng’s eyes flashed coldly as she asked these questions. There were three people she cared for the most in the world: her brother, and her two daughters. She could not wait to kill Vice Sect Leader Xue, but she was curious how her brother offended someone like that? The difference between their statuses was too great, after all.

Linghu Ren Jie honestly recounted everything to his sister. When he was done with his explanation, his eyes glinted coldly as he said disdainfully, “That Vice Sect Leader Xue is obviously worried Duan Ling Tian will make a name for himself in the Flying Dragon Sect so he didn’t want Duan Ling Tian to rank in the top 10 of the Latent Dragon Grand Contest! Moreover, he must be also helping Kuang Tian Zheng to take revenge!”

“So he targeted you because of another person?” Linghu Ren Feng nodded. It made sense. She knew that with her brother’s personality, he would not simply offend a high-ranking official of the Flying Dragon Sect.

“That’s right.” Linghu Ren Jie suddenly thought of something and asked, “Ren Feng, does Chu Yin have another name? I think it’s… Xia Ning Xue?”

Linghu Ren Jie did not expect that Linghu Ren Feng’s eyes would suddenly redden as terrifying Divine Energy swept out, sending him flying back.

After a while, when Linghu Ren Feng’s agitated energy calmed down, Linghu Ren Jie’s courtyard had already been destroyed.

After calming down, Linghu Ren Jie looked at his sister who wore a dark expression on her face.

Before he could speak, Linghu Ren Feng asked with red eyes, “Brother, how do you know the name Xia Ning Xue?”

Xia Ning Xue was Linghu Ren Feng’s other daughter who was forcibly taken from her when she was still a baby.
