Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The next morning, Jun Wuxie got out of bed and opened his door, only to see Qin Keqing already standing quietly in the courtyard, having waited for a long time.

"Have you been waiting long?" He stepped forward and stroked her hair, saying, "Don't worry, with me here, your grandfather will be fine."

Qin Keqing nodded, but the anxiety in her eyes did not completely disappear.

He was her only relative in the world, and today was the deadline set by the Southern Emperor, so how could she not be anxious in her heart?

The city was very noisy, and the sound even reached the Jubaosai.

Jun Wuxie sensed many powerful auras in the city, some of which were peak Saint Realm experts.

It seemed that the guardians of many major forces had arrived.

The Southern Emperor's trip to the capital must have spread throughout the world long ago.

And the world's forces must also know about his return.

Presumably, everyone was looking forward to seeing how today would end.

"Jun Wuxie, have you arrived yet?"

A strong and indifferent voice, like a thunderclap, resounded through the heavens and earth, echoing in the sky above the city, the sound waves rolling, sweeping across the city, and reaching every corner.

"You, surnamed Jun, I have already forged iron chains for you. After today, you will be my Southern Emperor's battle pet. Don't worry, I will often take you out for a walk, especially in your Great Zhou. At that time, the people of Great Zhou will see that their god, Jun, is only worthy of being a dog by the side of my Southern Emperor!"

"That Southern Emperor is too arrogant!"

Qin Keqing was so angered by the Southern Emperor's words that her face turned white.

"Why bother getting angry with him? Let him shout. The more arrogant he is now, the more miserable he will be later."

Jun Wuxie's eyes were deep, his tone calm, and he led Qin Keqing outside.

The four hall masters had already been waiting at the courtyard gate. Seeing him come out, they immediately stepped forward to greet him, and then followed behind him, also wanting to see this battle between dragons and tigers.

"You, surnamed Jun, I can't wait to put this chain on you! Why don't you come out quickly?"

The Southern Emperor's voice continued to ring out in the Eastern Wilderness Ancient City, spreading from the central area of the city, causing people's ears to buzz.

At this moment.

The central square of the city was full of people.

It was still the arena where Jun Wuxie and Xiao Tianming had fought before.

Near the arena, the Southern Emperor, dressed in silver, stood with his hands behind his back, his thick hair fluttering, each strand flashing with lightning.

His eyes were like lightning, his aura soaring, and the clouds above his head were rolling, with lightning flashing from time to time.

In front of the Southern Emperor stood an old man, with blood stains on his lips, looking around at the crowd in a panic.

A large number of strong men from the Hunter Guild also gathered near the square, their faces very ugly.

Although some of them were at odds with Qin Keqing's grandfather and wished he would die sooner, the Southern Emperor's behavior now caused them to lose face.

Their marriage with the Nan family was completely hopeless, and the Southern Emperor was therefore angered by them.

This situation was all caused by that Jun Wuxie.

Their hatred for Jun Wuxie reached its peak, and they all hoped that the Southern Emperor would suffer both losses with him today, preferably die together, in order to relieve their hatred!

The Medicine King Sect, the Imperial Spirit Sect, the Demon Phase Sect, the Great Brahma Zen Sect, the Pudu Temple, the Saint Gate, the Kaitian Sword Sect, the Ancient Phoenix Sect, the Golden Ancient City, the Heavenly Purity Sect, and the Soul Hunting Palace all had peak Saint Realm experts present.

In addition, there were many quasi-overlord-level forces, etc., surrounding the area near the arena.

"Southern Emperor, you are truly extraordinary!"

"Nephew Southern Emperor, your spirit is as strong as a dragon, and your thunderous true energy is fierce and powerful, which is amazing."

"Hmm, Nephew Southern Emperor's talent is rarely seen throughout the ages. A generation of legends is truly amazing!"

"Fellow Daoist Nan Zhan, it is really enviable to have such a son."

"Hahaha, fellow Daoists, please wait patiently and see how my son, the Southern Emperor, crushes that Military Saint's disciple, Jun Wuxie!" Nan Zhan said confidently and proudly, waving his sleeves, "My son, the Southern Emperor, has the bloodline of an ancient god and the posture of a supreme being. Over the years, he has been in seclusion, so his fame has not spread throughout the world. Today, my son, the Southern Emperor, will inform the world in his strongest posture that he is the protagonist of this era!"

"Fellow Daoist Nan Zhan, the name of the protagonist of this era is well deserved by Nephew Southern Emperor. He has the capital and potential!"

The guardian of the Saint Gate said this with a hint of flattery.

"A generation of legends is really a legend! Few people in history have been able to reach this level. Nephew Southern Emperor is truly a divine martial artist!"

The guardian of the Heavenly Sword Sect also exclaimed in praise.

The Heavenly Purity Sect and the Soul Hunting Palace were silent, their faces not very good.

The strong men of the Ancient Phoenix Sect and the Golden Ancient City sneered secretly.

Dare to say that he is the protagonist of the era just because he is in the legendary realm?

Their sect has legendary existences. The strongest young master has stepped into the legendary peerless genius.

"Who is the best of the contemporary geniuses? Only the Southern Emperor stands proudly in the world!"

Many young martial artists shouted in the crowd. For a time, such voices resounded throughout the square.

Those people raised their arms and shouted, all of them admirers and followers of the Southern Emperor.

"Well said, in this era, only my Southern Emperor can stand at the peak of the era!" The Southern Emperor was high-spirited, confident and powerful, saying, "The wind and clouds are crazy, the supreme road, seeing my Southern Emperor is all twilight!"

"Hmm, good, a peerless genius should have this edge!"

Some older martial artists stroked their beards and commented in this way.

Some forces were very jealous. The Nan family produced a Southern Emperor, which attracted the thunder tribulation phenomenon. That night, they got a terrible thing, which made even the demigods afraid.

Why didn't their sect produce such a person?

Looking at the Southern Emperor's confidence and power, those forces, although very jealous, had to admit that this person was really too strong.

The intensity of his talent growth has stepped into the legendary realm. This kind of amazing talent is rare in ancient times and is destined to stand at the top of the world, overlooking the world!

"This Southern Emperor's edge is becoming more and more irresistible…"

The guardians of the Medicine King Sect, the Imperial Spirit Sect, and the Demon Phase Sect secretly talked, all feeling a deep sense of pressure.

They, these guardians, are at the peak of the Saint Realm, but when facing the Southern Emperor, they have a feeling of palpitations.

His edge seems to be able to pierce them invisibly, causing their minds to feel uneasy.

"Young Master Jun has encountered a strong enemy this time. A battle between dragons and tigers is likely to end in both losses…"

"If Young Master Jun is defeated…"

"In short, the outcome is unpredictable. The Southern Emperor is already a Saint Realm, but Young Master Jun is said to still be in the Sovereign Realm…"

…

They communicated secretly, all full of worry and anxiety.

Now, the world knows that their sect has a good relationship with Jun Wuxie and has already chosen a camp.

If Jun Wuxie loses this time, then their sect is likely to be targeted and attacked by some forces.

At this time, the whole scene suddenly quieted down.

Countless eyes looked towards the rear of the crowd.

"Young Master Jun is here!"

Someone in the crowd shouted excitedly.

In an instant, the crowd in a certain direction quickly dispersed to both sides, creating a path.

At the edge of the arena, the Southern Emperor's eyes shot out two intimidating rays of lightning, staring at the figure slowly walking on the cleared passage.

"Jun Wuxie, you only come now, are you afraid of death and want to delay time?"

Nan Zhan deliberately ridiculed, and then a group of young martial artists burst into laughter, saying, "If you are afraid of death, admit it early. Is it useful to delay time?"

"Hmm, this is the Jun Wuxie who is rumored to be so magical by the people of the world? I don't think there is anything special about him. He is very ordinary." A young martial artist sneered, "With this kind of person, why does the Southern Emperor need to take action? I can suppress him with one hand!"

"That's right, is he worthy of competing with the Southern Emperor? Any one of us can beat him to the point where he can't take care of himself!"

…

The Southern Emperor's followers were very arrogant.

Of course, they would not think that they could beat Jun Wuxie, they just wanted to disturb his Dao heart.

"Jun Wuxie, you can't even pass my level, are you worthy of competing with the Southern Emperor?" A young martial artist in his early twenties mocked, "Are you bringing Qin Keqing to apologize to the Southern Emperor?"

"Hmm, if you obediently send Qin Keqing to the Southern Emperor and let the Southern Emperor publicly judge this unchaste woman, and then kneel down and beg for mercy, maybe the Southern Emperor can feed you a few more bones every day in the future, haha…"

Buzz!

A golden palm, breaking through the distance of space, appeared above the heads of those provocative young martial artists in an instant.

Too fast, no one here could react, even the Southern Emperor.

He was standing at the edge of the arena at the moment, a little far away, and could not stop it at all.

The golden blood energy palm grabbed those few shouting people in its hand and brought them to Jun Wuxie.

"Jun Wuxie, what do you want to do?"

Those few people screamed in fright, struggling desperately in his blood energy palm, but they could not break free.

"Didn't you say you wanted to crush me with one hand?"

Jun Wuxie looked at the few people indifferently.

"We… we are not ready yet, you attacked, you don't have martial ethics! If you have the guts, let us go and have a fair fight!"

The few people were stern and timid, calculating in their hearts that as long as Jun Wuxie let go, they would immediately rush to the Southern Emperor and seek shelter.

"You, surnamed Jun, how dare you touch my people?"

The Southern Emperor carried one hand behind his back, his hair dancing wildly, and lightning was lingering and colliding on his hair, crackling.

A powerful aura was released, sweeping across all directions like a storm, and thunderclouds were rolling above the sky, startling everyone to retreat to a safe distance.

Jun Wuxie looked indifferently at the Southern Emperor at the edge of the arena, and the blood energy palm dispersed.

The few young martial artists suddenly fell down, regained their freedom, and rushed towards the Southern Emperor like crazy, seeking shelter.

"Humph!"

Jun Wuxie snorted coldly.

Instantly, the sound waves swept through.

The few people who had only run halfway let out miserable screams as their bodies exploded in mid-air, blood mist filling the sky.

"You seek death!"

The Southern Emperor narrowed his eyes, his killing intent surging. Above the Nine Heavens, thunderclouds split open, and a silver lightning bolt crackled across the sky, connecting him to the firmament and creating a terrifying scene.

He stood at the edge of the arena, thick lightning connecting him to the thunderclouds above, making him appear like a thunder god descended upon the world, giving people a suffocating sense of oppression.

Everyone was shocked by his posture.

The Nine Heavens Tribulation Lightning was already terrifying, but the Southern Emperor actually used it to connect his body to the thunderclouds.

The runes within this lightning flashed, and the power it exuded alone made people's hearts tremble with fear, far surpassing natural lightning, countless times stronger.

"Southern Emperor, we have arrived. Release Ke Qing's grandfather."

Jun Wuxie's tone was calm as he glanced at the old man with bloodstains on his lips in front of the Southern Emperor.

Qin Keqing's gaze remained fixed on the old man, her eyes filled with pain, concern, and complexity.

"Ke Qing, leave quickly! Don't worry about me!" Qin Zheng shouted loudly to Jun Wuxie, "You shouldn't have come, and you shouldn't have brought Ke Qing! Take her away, back to your Immortal Slaughtering Sword Sect!"

He was in great pain. Back then, for his own plans, he had forced his granddaughter to marry into the Nan family.

Today, his granddaughter knew what she might face upon returning, but she still came back, for him, her unworthy grandfather!

"Hmph!" The Southern Emperor sneered, saying, "I have no interest in this old thing!"

After speaking, he sent Qin Zheng flying with a palm strike.

Qin Zheng's body flew out like a kite with a broken string, drawing a long arc in the air before crashing down in front of Qin Keqing.

"Grandfather!"

Qin Keqing's face turned pale as she rushed forward to check Qin Zheng's injuries.

"Grandfather is fine, I won't die…" As Qin Zheng spoke, he choked out a mouthful of blood. Looking at his granddaughter's concern, tears welled up in his eyes as he choked back sobs, "Grandfather is sorry, can you forgive Grandfather?"

Qin Keqing wept silently, taking out a small piece of top-grade spiritual crystal to heal him.

"Ke Qing, Grandfather was wrong, Grandfather was muddle-headed, blinded by hatred, and chose to sacrifice you to consolidate my position in the family in order to achieve my revenge. Grandfather begs for your forgiveness, can you forgive Grandfather?"

"Revenge?" Qin Keqing said tremblingly, "Revenge for what?"

"The revenge for your parents, the revenge for your brother, and the revenge for the ambush you suffered when you were young! Grandfather has long known who did it, and found the evidence, but Grandfather's power has long been hollowed out, and I can't fight them at all, Grandfather is useless…"

Qin Zheng's eyes were bloodshot, and his body trembled as tears streamed down his face.

"Who is it?"

Qin Keqing's red lips trembled, her body tensing up.

"The power holders of our Hunter Guild, all the high-level members of their lineage participated in it, along with the three guardians who support them from behind! They planned everything, setting up a trap to kill your parents and your brother!"

"Why, why did they do this! !"

Qin Keqing's face was covered in tears. Although she had long suspected that the people who ambushed her back then were from the family, she never imagined that the deaths of her parents and brother were orchestrated by them.

Why were they so ruthless, so determined to kill them all?

"Hmph, what a touching scene of family affection. You grandfather and granddaughter should say whatever you want to say as soon as possible, otherwise there will be no more chances."

The Southern Emperor's lips curled into a cruel smile. He would definitely kill this woman today, and suppress her in public!

What kind of person was he, the Southern Emperor? The emperor among geniuses! While he was in seclusion, he was actually humiliated by such a woman. Where was his dignity?

An emperor cannot be humiliated, and those who humiliate him must die!

Jun Wuxie returned to Qin Keqing's side, gently wiping away the tears on her face, and said, "Don't worry, the people who harmed you, the people who harmed your parents and brother, none of them will escape today!"

At the edge of the arena, the Southern Emperor's face turned ashen when he saw this scene!

His Thunder True Qi surged, causing the lightning connecting him to the thunderclouds to dance in the air like silver dragons, crackling and snapping.

The violent power of thunder spread out, covering a large area with lightning, startling people and causing them to retreat in panic.

The void was torn apart by the lightning, forming large spider web-like cracks.

"You surnamed Jun! Enter the arena and come to your death!"

He turned and stepped into the arena. Runes lit up at the edge of the arena, and a huge light curtain barrier emerged.

Rumble!

The Southern Emperor stood in the air above the arena, and lightning poured down from the sky, forming a scene like a rain of lightning, tearing the void inside to pieces, a scene of the end of the world.

"Stay with your grandfather, I'll be right back."

Jun Wuxie kissed her forehead and turned to walk towards the arena.

Qin Keqing grabbed his hand and said, "Be careful!"

Jun Wuxie nodded and gave her a reassuring look.

Instantly, the atmosphere in the entire plaza area froze.

People held their breath.

A duel between legendary peerless geniuses was about to erupt!

Legendary realm, how many have there been throughout history?

In the past, no era has ever seen two legends appear at the same time.

Therefore, the historical records of the cultivation world have never recorded a duel between two geniuses in the legendary realm.

Today, this duel will be an unprecedented battle!
