After hearing the news, Ximen Qingyan, who had been extremely depressed, suddenly showed a glimmer of hope in her eyes. "Ye Qing was seriously injured... This is a good opportunity for us!" "That's right!" Xia Long said happily, "Looking at the nine states of the world, the ancestor is the number one person below the Four Emperors." "Now that Ye Qing is seriously injured, no matter in terms of strength or prestige, it is right for the ancestor to take his place!" "In this way, our Linglong Holy Land will have one of the Four Emperors in charge, and it will be just a matter of time before we dominate Zhongzhou!" "Hehe, what I want now is not just the throne of the Four Emperors." Ximen Qingyan narrowed her eyes and said in a deep voice, "I have now mastered the Immortal Sealing Dark Sea and can compete with the Immortal Weapons." "Except Ye Qing, I am not afraid of anyone, whether it's Mo Kuangzi, Dongfang Liren, or that old monk." "As long as Ye Qing dies, I will be the leader of the Four Emperors and number one in the world."
"Looking across the world, no one can be my enemy!" "Ancestor is wise!" Xia He hurriedly clasped his fists in agreement, and Xia Long tentatively asked, "Is the ancestor planning to go to the Great Chu Dynasty and kill Ye Qing to be on the safe side?" "No, wait a minute." Ximen Qingyan shook her head and smiled faintly, "Ye Qing is cunning by nature. It is possible that he set a trap to deliberately lure us into action, and then use this as an excuse to invade our Linglong Holy Land." "One year!" "Let's keep calm and observe for a year." "After a year, if Ye Qing is still motionless, it means he is seriously injured or really dead." "I will go to the Great Chu Dynasty myself and put an end to his life!" Xia He and Xia Long nodded, expressing their strong agreement. How could it be so easy to clear an ancient forbidden area? In their opinion, Ye Qing was most likely seriously injured, and the injury affected his bones. For someone of Ye Qing's level, he would never get hurt easily. But if you are injured, it is not easy to recover. Perhaps even after thousands of years, he would never be able to recover his former strength. The ancestor's choice to lie dormant and endure for a year could not be more wise. "Xia Long, Xia He, you need to send more people to keep an eye on the Great Chu Dynasty day and night this year!" "If you find out any information about Ye Qing, come back and report to me immediately." Ximen Qingyan grinned and said, "Ye Qing, you defeated me in front of everyone, stepped on my head, and ascended to the throne of the Four Emperors." "I will step on your dead body and take back what I lost!"
…… Great Chu Dynasty, inside the imperial palace. Chu Yao sat in front of the bronze mirror, and Hongyu carefully combed her hair. Looking at her slightly haggard face in the bronze mirror, Chu Yao couldn't help but sigh slightly. There were rumors everywhere in the outside world, and of course she had heard about them. Chu Yao herself knew very well that Ye Qing really just had some insights in the forbidden area and went into seclusion immediately after returning. It's nothing like what's been rumored outside, such as disabled, dead, seriously injured, etc. However, no matter how Chu Yao explained, others would only think that she was trying to cover up something. She had no choice but to give up the idea of explaining and tried her best to maintain the orderly operation of ASEAN so that her husband would not be disturbed even during his retreat. At this time, Leng Rushuang walked in from outside and said, "Your Majesty, four monarchs of ASEAN came to the lobby and said that they learned that Emperor Ye had returned from the forbidden area and came to visit specially." Chu Yao sighed, looking helpless, "Here we go again." In the past few days, there have been countless groups of ASEAN members coming to their Great Chu Dynasty. In name, these people came to visit Ye Qing. But Chu Yao knew very well that they were only here to gather information, to see whether Ye Qing was really seriously injured as rumored, or even whether he was still alive. "Okay, I'll see you right away." After Chu Yao finished dressing up, she put on the imperial robe, wore the crown, and came to the front hall in her best attire. The four kings below immediately knelt on one knee and shouted, "Greetings, Deputy Leader!" "The four of you, please stand up." Chu Yao nodded and smiled faintly, "It's only been three days since my husband came back, and you've come all the way to visit me. You really mean a lot to me." "On behalf of my husband, I thank you all for your kindness." Hearing this, the four kings looked at each other, with a hint of suspicion in their eyes. Luo Chuang, the King of Dayan, clasped his fists and said, "Deputy Alliance Leader, we have come a thousand miles just to see Emperor Ye in person." "Can you ask the deputy leader to pass on a message and ask Emperor Ye to come out and let us meet him?" "As long as we see that Ye Huang is safe, we will feel relieved." Chu Yao apologized, "The four of you are from a thousand miles away from my Great Chu Dynasty. You have come all the way to visit me. Logically, my husband should come in person." "But two days ago, the day after my husband returned, he began to meditate and gain enlightenment, and did not allow anyone to disturb him." "After my husband comes out of seclusion, I will go to your house in person to thank you all." Seeing Chu Yao refuse like this, the four of them immediately became more suspicious. They exchanged glances, not knowing how to ask further questions.
Chu Yao stood up and said solemnly, "Four of you, my husband specifically told me before he went into seclusion that although he is in seclusion, our mission of exterminating demons cannot be interrupted." "Now that the troops from the north and south have been assembled, the demon-killing army is about to set out. I ask the four of you to return to your country as soon as possible and take charge. Don't delay our important event." Seeing Chu Yao issued an order to expel them, the four of them had no choice but to clasp their fists and say, "We obey your command." After leaving the Great Chu Dynasty, they no longer pretended, and the suspicion in their hearts was transferred to their faces. "If Ye Huang really returned safely, why did she insist on not letting us meet her?" "How can someone go into seclusion right after returning victorious?" "Could it be that... it is true as the rumors say, that Emperor Ye was seriously injured and his cultivation was completely wasted." "Even... dead?" …… at the same time. At the border of the Wanyin Dynasty in Xizhou. There is also a saint's prohibition here, sealing the ancient forbidden area - the Valley of the Buried Gods. At this moment, at the commanding height of the God Burial Valley, on the top of God Burial Mountain. Four powerful men with strength reaching the immortal level gathered here, emitting a terrifying aura. Standing on the east side were two burly men. They are all over three meters tall, with three heads and six arms, skin as dark as charcoal. The two of them are one of the three ancient blood descendants and the strongest of the God Burial Clan. The clan leader Hun Tianmie and his fierce general Kuang Mang. Standing on the west side were two delicate, charming and alluring women. Her skin is as white as snow, her body is extremely hot, and she is as captivating as a succubus. These two women are one of the three ancient bloodlines, the strongest sisters of the Samsara clan. The elder sister's name is Tianqing, and the younger sister's name is Shenmei. (End of this chapter)
