"Heavenly Emperor, you, you..."
After the Heavenly Emperor's rune failed, Jingyang rolled up from the ground and looked at Ye Chen in shock, not knowing what to say.
"What do you mean 'you'? If you continue to speak disrespectfully to me, be careful, I might kill you!" Ye Chen said coldly and arrogantly.
"..."
The murderous intent in Ye Chen's words startled Jingyang, making him dare not act rashly.
At this moment, Ye Chen made him feel threatened!
Jingyang was of beastly physique, naturally bloodthirsty, but Ye Chen was even more bloodthirsty, his beast-like nature even greater!
In fact, Ye Chen's cultivation surpassed the prodigy king long ago, as he stood above them with unmatched pride.
With Ye Chen's current cultivation level, he might not be invincible, but even if he kills a few people, he can still retreat safely.
However, the mysterious life-forbidden zone made Ye Chen vaguely uneasy, as if he was being watched by something.
Ye Chen was worried that after defeating the minor ones, the seniors would come, so he only showed his strength without striking to kill.
"I want to go home to see my daughter now. You'd better not block me, or I'll start a massacre!"
Ye Chen looked down on the seven prodigies, holding a little emperor's hand, and walked past them as if they didn't exist.
"Ye Chen, do you really think you can leave?" Gu Yongheng stepped in front of Ye Chen again, not letting him pass.
"Do you believe I can slap your face too?" Ye Chen looked at Gu Yongheng coldly.
"..."
Ye Chen's gaze made Gu Yongheng's heart freeze; he thought of Jingyang's fate and fell silent.
Ye Chen's face-slapping technique was too marvelous; when the golden rune appeared, it was unavoidable, hitting people unexpectedly.
Both Jingyang and Gu Yongheng were prodigy kings, and since Jingyang couldn't escape the rune's restriction, most likely he couldn't either.
Thinking seriously, Gu Yongheng chose silence, as being slapped for saying a few extra words was not worth it!
"Even powerful Secret Techniques have limitations. Your rune restriction is strong, but how many times can you use it?" Qin Changtian asked, his eyes like swords directed at Ye Chen.
"Your severed arm has regenerated?" Ye Chen glanced at Qin Changtian's arm.
Qin Changtian's right arm had been torn off by him, but now it had completely regenerated, clearly due to taking the Creation Divine Medicine.
"Humph!"
Qin Changtian snorted coldly, obviously displeased; losing to Ye Chen was his eternal pain.
However, Qin Changtian didn't know Ye Chen was the Heavenly Emperor and thought his remark was just a taunt.
"My existence is extraordinary, already surpassing the prodigy king!" Ye Chen looked at the seven prodigies and said slowly. "But, the potential apocalypse is about to descend, and I don't want to create unnecessary killings, so I'll allow you to grow!"
"Otherwise, you'll all become ghosts beneath my fists, stepping stones on my invincible path!"
Ye Chen shone with confidence, looking down on the seven prodigies, gazing at everyone present.
This swaggering attitude reached the skies, making everyone feel unnerved, unsure how to respond.
"The Heavenly Emperor is indeed as arrogant as legend says, with not a single friend!"
"Does the Heavenly Emperor really dare to speak like this, does he truly think he is the Heavenly Emperor?"
Ye Chen's display was too arrogant, causing an uproar among the heroes from all directions, who found it hard to watch.
Jun Tianyou, Gu Yongheng, Qin Changtian, Jingyang, Kunming, Tianshi, Baize — the seven prodigies, each a prodigy king, capable of challenging Saints!
At this moment, the gathering of the seven prodigy kings even made the Saint Kings take serious notice.
But, the Heavenly Emperor had not reached the Saint Realm, yet showed such arrogance, not taking the seven prodigies seriously... Where did this confidence come from?
Some doubted the Heavenly Emperor's arrogance, while others felt serious, sensing that he truly resembled a Divine Emperor!
Thinking back a few years ago, the Heavenly Emperor emerged abruptly, recklessly domineering, creating a myth, leaving behind a legend!
Today, the Heavenly Emperor appeared again, as domineering as before; who knows if he'll create another myth, shaking the world!
"Ye Chen, don't boast. They are seven super powerful individuals. Can you really defeat them?" The little emperor quietly asked Ye Chen while looking at the somber seven prodigies.
"Without you as a burden, I can kill two or three of them!" Ye Chen responded. "However, due to your involvement, I'm restrained, making it difficult to kill. But crippling one or two, that's doable!"
Ye Chen boasted his prowess because he truly had such combat power!
The Heavenly Emperor's rune was Ye Chen's reliance; once the rune appeared, it controlled the world, even prodigy kings were restricted!
If Ye Chen were to go all out, killing one or two prodigy kings wouldn't be a big problem.
However, the Heavenly Emperor's rune imposes a significant burden on the body, and Ye Chen couldn't unleash it continuously; otherwise, he would have been invincible long ago. Even so, Ye Chen had his reliance, causing the prodigy kings to bleed!
"..."
The conversation between the little emperor and Ye Chen wasn't deliberately masked, allowing the seven prodigies to overhear, bringing them deeper into silence.
The might of the Heavenly Emperor was unimaginable, causing them to feel serious, and hesitant to act.
Yet, while they hesitated, Ye Chen mentioned he could kill two or three, making them even more cautious.
Ye Chen didn't deliberately boast when speaking, feigning mystery, but instead narrated matter-of-factly.
And it's this calm attitude of Ye Chen that affected their mood heavily!
The prodigy kings are the strongest throughout history, the ultimate peak beneath the Saint Realm, never broken through, even Gu Yongheng, a monster who lived for tens of thousands of years, hadn't broken this limit!
However, Ye Chen candidly stated that he could kill two or three of them, which would break through that limit and reach a level even Saints have to look up to.
But is that possible?
"Heavenly Emperor, the seven of us are here. Even a Human King cannot dominate, so you should stop pretending to be strong!" Tianshi said. "The Qilin is the King of Beasts, belonging to my Canglan Realm. You are just an outsider and have no right to possess it!"
"Hand over the Qilin, and we'll let you leave!"
Ye Chen's imposing manner was high, making the Seven Great Warriors wary, unwilling to become enemies with him.
However, the Qilin is the king of beasts, the only one in heaven and on earth. If they miss this opportunity, they will surely regret it.
Heavenly Emperor's cultivation is indeed powerful, but they are all kings of talent, confident that they are not inferior to others!
The Heavenly Emperor can leave here, but must leave the Qilin!
Jun Tianyou, Gu Yongheng, Tianshi, Baize... all seven were preparing a mighty strike to suppress the Heavenly Emperor.
"The seven mighty warriors were just fighting fiercely, yet now they choose to join forces?"
Gu Yongheng, Tianshi, and others were gathering strength, clearly intending to unleash a thunderous assault to suppress the Heavenly Emperor, shocking everyone around.
"The Heavenly Emperor is too mysterious, too powerful, causing even the seven mighty warriors to show respect and choose to jointly attack!"
"The seven mighty warriors are all figures of influence, roaring arrogantly in their regions. Combined, they fear no Human King. The Heavenly Emperor is in danger."
The scene was extremely tense at this moment, with a great battle about to erupt, causing everyone to hold their breath in anticipation.
However, the Heavenly Emperor's situation was precarious, very likely to be suppressed and killed!
The combined strength of the seven mighty warriors could undoubtedly battle a Human King; the Heavenly Emperor... cannot withstand it!
"The Seven Mighty Warriors are not kind. I will battle them at the Peak Group. You must protect yourself well!" Ye Chen looked at the Seven Mighty Warriors and said firmly. "This is the Dragon Clan's clan-suppressing divine weapon, temporarily borrowed by me, now handed over to you for protection."
"The Heavenly Emperor actually possesses a Divine Artifact!"
An aura emanated from Ye Chen's hand, radiating a majestic power, causing everyone to become solemn.
"Divine Artifact?"
The Emperor didn't know what a Divine Artifact was, but the name alone sounded impressive!
"..."
The Dragon Clan has seven clan-suppressing divine weapons. The Wrath of the Dragon God was fused by Ye Chen. Three are with Long Chan, and the other three are held by the Dragon Esteem.
Ye Chen knew the danger this time, so he borrowed a divine weapon from Long Chan to resist formidable enemies.
At this moment, with a great battle impending, Ye Chen couldn't fully protect, so he entrusted the Divine Artifact to the Emperor for protection.
During Ye Chen's few years away, the Emperor had made great progress, not only transcending the Other Shore but also forming the Other Shore Palace!
Now, with the Divine Artifact for protection, although unable to rival the kings of talent, self-preservation should pose no issue!
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
The Dragon God's armor issued a resonant clang as it enveloped the Emperor, providing the strongest protection. The Dragon God's helmet transformed into a crown resting on the Emperor's head, seemingly capable of deflecting all attacks. The third artifact was the Dragon God's boots, granting extreme speed, suitable for combat and escape alike.
"Is this a Divine Artifact?"
With the three artifacts empowered, the Emperor felt invincible, brimming with confidence, with an urge to shatter the earth with a punch.
"Protect yourself well!" Ye Chen said.
"Ye Chen... you've given me the Divine Artifact, what will you use?" The Emperor suddenly asked.
"A Divine Artifact is ultimately an external force. In battle against them, my own power is sufficient!" Ye Chen replied with a confident smile.
"..."
The Emperor gazed at Ye Chen in astonishment, ripples stirring in her heart. At this moment, Ye Chen... exuded a unique style!
Ye Chen had been away for nearly five years, seemingly undergoing some transformation that was not only in cultivation but also in his heart and spirit!
"The Heavenly Emperor actually possesses a Dragon Clan Divine Artifact. Could he have a connection with the Dragon Clan?"
"The seven mighty warriors are each preparing, intending to join forces. Facing such a crisis, Ye Chen actually abandons the use of the Divine Artifact. What kind of self-confidence is this?"
The aura of the Divine Artifact couldn't be concealed. Ye Chen revealing a Dragon Clan Divine Artifact stunned everyone.
The Dragon Clan had been extinct for ages, no longer as glorious as before. However, the Seven Saints of the Dragon Clan remained, the invincible Dragon Esteem remained, how could they allow the Divine Artifact to wander?
The Heavenly Emperor actually possessed Dragon Clan Divine Artifacts, and three of them, what was his relationship with the Dragon Clan?
The Heavenly Emperor was already extraordinarily mysterious, and with the Dragon Clan Divine Artifacts, he appeared even more enigmatic.
Moreover, the Heavenly Emperor possessed Ultimate Divine Weapons, yet he discarded them, this arrogance stunned everyone.
"Heavenly Emperor, how do you have the Dragon Clan Divine Artifacts, what is your relationship with the Dragon Clan?" Jingyang looked at Ye Chen and asked seriously.
Jingyang was of noble descent, coming from a super Ancient Clan, with Great Saints residing in the clan.
However, Jingyang knew the terror of the Dragon Clan, very unwilling to provoke the Seven Saints.
The Seven Saints of the Dragon Clan were terrifyingly mighty, capable of ignoring everything and waging war on forbidden zones of life.
Jingyang's family, though strong, could not withstand the onslaught of the Seven Saints!
In fact, no one in the Canglan Realm could resist the Dragon Clan's Seven Saints! If it were not so, Long Chan would not have escaped judgment from a Saint after the bloody slaughter of hundreds of thousands of cultivators.
"The Dragon Clan loves eating Qilin the most. I gave the Qilin to the Dragon Esteem, and in return, he gave me several Divine Artifacts!" Ye Chen said flippantly. "Don't you want the Qilin? Go to the Null Realm and find the Dragon Esteem!"
