803: C803 Emperor Gathering

C803 Emperor Gathering

Linglong had never thought that Su Jue would be so quick, and that the white sand in front of his would be completely lifted off his body, revealing his true appearance.

Burning Heaven City suddenly quietened down, and Linglong's entire body froze in midair.

Su Jue looked at Ling Long, and was also startled.

What he saw was another deep bloody wound on the right side of Linglong's face.

This bloody scar was extremely fresh, as though it was the wound from before. However, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to see that Su Jue's strike had not harmed Linglong at all, and had only used a strong gust of wind to tear off the fine white sand.

Su Jue believed that if he did not have this wound, Ling Long could be considered as a peerless beauty that was above the heavens and below.

Now, it was obviously a huge discount. It was likely that it couldn't even compare to an ordinary woman.

"How did this happen?"

"No, he wasn't like this the last time I saw him, was he?" Wu Yiqing said in fear.

"Stupid, she used an illusion technique last time." Li Mo Ran said.

"Damn it, what Bladed Sword Saint's number one beauty, so that's what it looks like."

"It seems like she won't be able to recover from the wounds, otherwise, with Qiong Hua's power, she wouldn't be in such a state."

"No wonder she was always wearing a veil. I thought she didn't want others to see his true appearance, so she was actually an ugly woman."

"It's still our Princess Xiluo's beauty!"

For a moment, they mocked one another. Linglong's face was extremely gloomy, and she hurriedly covered her face with her veil.

"Su Jue, you and I will not stop until we are dead!" Ling Long bellowed, and flames and frost power appeared around her body.

The same Ice and Fire Body!

"Stop!"

"Stop!"

Almost simultaneously, two voices rang out in the air. One of them came from the Artifact Saint, while the other came from outside the city.

A black silhouette rushed into Burning Heaven City from outside, arriving in front of the Artifact Saint in the blink of an eye.

"Junior brother, it's you!" The Artifact Saint asked in surprise.

Just like that, Su Jue and Ling Long stopped at the same time.

"Master!" Ling Long's eyes were bloodshot as she cupped her hands and said to the incoming person.

"Haha, good disciple, you've done well!"

The person who came was an old man dressed in black. He had a cunning expression on his face, and it was obvious that he did not come with good intentions.

"Senior apprentice-brother, long time no see." The black-clothed elder looked at Ancestral Artifact.

Senior Brother

One of them was a junior brother and the other was a senior brother. This aroused everyone's suspicions.

"I know, he should be Zhenyan. He is one of the disciples of the Artifact Saint from two generations ago, and also the City Lord's junior brother." Zi Xiao's eyes were filled with fear.

"True Flames!"

Of the people present, only a very few had heard of this name.

Su Jue smiled faintly. Now he finally understood why he felt like he had seen the Artifact Saint somewhere.

"So he's the disciple of the previous generation's artifact saint, Zhen Wu. Five hundred years have passed in a flash."

Su Jue was a little sad. In his previous life, when he came to this Burning Heaven City, he had even chatted with Zhenwu's master, Tongxuan, before.

And now, the low rank Grandmaster from back then was already the top Artifact Saint in the Heaven Realm's pyramid.

As for True Yan, he had seen it back then. However, at that time, the disparity between their statuses was too great, so he did not pay much attention to it.

"Zhen Yan, you joined Qiong Hua?" Holyfire said as he looked at the black-robed Primordial Flame.

"That's right. Back then, I lost to you and left the Burning Heaven City. At that time, I swore that one day, I would take back the position that belonged to me. Now, it seems like that day isn't far." Zhen Yan sneered.

"So you let your disciple come here to become the champion to pave the way for your revenge?" Zhenwu said angrily.

"This is only the first step. However, what is unfortunate is that a boy has appeared out of nowhere." As Zhen Yan spoke, he looked at Su Jue with an extremely unfriendly expression.

Zhenwu's face darkened, and after a long while, he laughed: "I have already said this before, if we are unable to determine the champion, then the Burning Heaven Grand Ceremony will reconvene on a different day. But next time, I will not welcome anyone other than Burning Heaven to attend."

"Senior Brother, you seem to have forgotten that you didn't say that earlier." Zhen Yan laughed and continued: "Earlier, you said that you would resume the process after the destruction of the four heavenly tribulation artifacts. But now, that kid's sword is on par with my disciple's Wild Emperor Sword."

"Even so, we have to hold it once more. This is the grand ceremony of I, Burning Heaven." Yan Yun interrupted.

"Little thing, there's no one here for you to interrupt."

True Yan gave a loud shout and an Emperor level pressure instantly rushed towards Yan Yun, forcing Yan Yun to retreat.

"Emperor!"

The crowd turned pale with fright as they all retreated. This was no longer something that they could interfere in.

"What do you want?" Zhenwu asked coldly.

"It's very simple. Let my disciple compete with that kid." Zhenyan said.

"How can we compete if we want to compete?" Zhenwu said.

Zhen Yan smiled and said: "The previous matches were all decided by you guys, but this time, it's up to me."

"Speak!"

"The method is simple. Both of them used the lowest grade of materials to refine the Star Soldier. Zhenyan said.

Zhenwu frowned and said, "No, today's match ends here."

"Haha Senior-apprentice Brother, I didn't expect you to have so much guts. You really disappoint me. But, if you don't agree today, then you can't." Zhen Yan laughed loudly.

"What? Are you trying to use force?" Zhenwu said disdainfully.

"We don't deserve to be strong. We just want to witness the birth of the champion. We also want to know if the Burning Heaven Saint is truly worthy of being the holy land of artifact forging."

The voice did not come from Zhen Yan, but from the crowd.

Everyone turned to look, only to see that the speaker was a middle-aged man with a cold expression and a long sword on his back.

"Sword Emperor Nie Gutian!"

Zhenwu's eyes trembled.

Sword Emperor Nie Gutian

For a moment, everyone looked at the middle-aged man in shock.

No one would have thought that the person standing beside them would actually be the famous Sword Emperor Nie Gutian who shook the entire Heaven Realm.

In Su Jue's opinion, Nie Gutian was one of the two emperors of the Bladed Sword Saint's Sword and Saber Sect.

Five hundred years ago, he had already become famous. He was an expert from the same era as his previous life.

The two of them had once fought against each other. Although the Sword Emperor had been defeated by him, his memory of his terrifying killing power was still fresh in his mind.

What was even more terrifying, was that the sword strapped to his back, was actually a ninth level Origin Sword.

With this Nine Tribulations Sword, he would be able to come and go as he pleased even when facing Great Emperor level warriors.

"I didn't expect that even the Sword Emperor would come this time." The elders of the Float all felt that they could not even raise their heads in front of the Sword Emperor.

They were the masters of a sect, but they were not Emperors.

"Brother Zhen, long time no see." Nie Gutian laughed.

"Brother Nie, you also joined Qiong Hua?" Zhenwu asked doubtfully.

Nie Gutian did not answer and only smiled, obviously tacitly agreeing.

Zhenwu sighed, then said: "It seems you are still unwilling to let me go, Burning Heaven, but …"

"If you want to force me, Fen Tian, then you guys are still far off. I advise you guys to leave. I don't want Burning Heaven City to be destroyed, and even more so, I don't want any Emperor-level martial practitioners to die today."

The Emperor was dead!

Everyone swallowed their saliva.

The fall of a Peerless Emperor would shock the entire Heaven Realm. More importantly, if a Peerless Emperor level battle really broke out here, they would not be able to escape.

"Senior Brother, I know you have many helpers, but, you know very well the strength of I, Qiong Hua, why must you set off a bloody battle just for a competition and cause the entire Burning Heaven City to be destroyed?" Zhen Yan laughed.

Zhenwu fell into deep thought and began to ponder. There was a trace of hesitation in his eyes.

"Su Jue, didn't you want to be the champion? Why didn't you make a sound? Right now, the entire Burning Heaven City is comforted by you. As long as you agree, this battle will be spared."

At this time, the empress suddenly spoke up.

Su Jue smiled and said: "You used the comfort of the entire Burning Heaven City to force me to compete with you. There's really no need for that, because you can't possibly be my match.

Zhenwu's face immediately froze as he looked at Su Jue and asked: "Su Jue, are you really confident?"

"According to what he said, we can compete with him. However, we'll need the materials from the Burning Heaven City, in case someone tries to mess with us!" Su Jue sneered.

"Brat, don't think that just because you gave me the name of Wild Emperor I wouldn't dare to touch you. I, the dignified chief refiner of Qiong Hua, would do something with the ingredients?" Zhen Yan said in disdain.

"Junior brother, it seems that even the younger generation knows your character very well. We all know very well if you are capable of doing something."

Zhenwu looked at Zhenyan with a trace of mockery on his face.

"Hmph." True Yan coldly snorted and didn't say anything else. It was obvious that this wasn't the first time he had tampered with materials.2

Not long later, Zhen Wu personally took out two sets of ingredients and placed them on the Float.

"Junior, I believe you are very familiar with these two sets of materials. Back then, when Master tested us, he used these two sets of materials. That was the first time you defeated me, but it was also the last time. Zhen Wu laughed.

"I don't want to talk about the past."

After looking at the materials, he said, "Disciple, these materials are for two standard Star Soldier s of the sixth step, but with your strength, you should be able to surpass the sixth step. Whether Master can wash away the humiliation today is up to you."
