The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 1714: 1711: Restarting the Seven Pulses of Beidou

The Blood Robe Emperor General interred Emperor Ling Xiao’s remains and raised a gravestone before departing.

He sought a secluded spot for solitude.

Once the Blood Robe Emperor General departed, the Immortal Profound Power that slew Emperor Ling Xiao seeped from the body, coalescing into wisps of dark mist that faded away.

An unknown span of time passed before the Immortal Profound Power reached a chaotic storm beyond the Heavenly Domain.

Guided by its own sentience, it traced a precise route through the Chaos storm, reaching the calm center.

This forbidden zone barred all living beings.

The Chaos storm's fury alone could rend everything asunder.

Solely a Great Emperor might endure its wrath.

The Immortal Profound Power hovered in the storm's eye, circling a few times before abruptly vanishing.

The Immortal Profound Power plunged into a realm of utter darkness.

Boundless shadows cloaked the entire domain.

A malevolent, savage energy permeated everywhere, with ceaseless surges of Destruction Laws raging fiercely.

Even a Quasi-Emperor Realm powerhouse couldn't progress through this hazard.

Yet the Immortal Profound Power traversed it effortlessly, soaring directly to the world's core.

Its pace defied comparison.

At the world's heart lay a mysterious ‘corpse.’

This realm's existence revolved around it.

The ‘corpse’ was veiled in eerie black energy, its form entirely concealed.

Still, this ‘corpse’ birthed the world's dread aura.

As the Immortal Profound Power approached the core, it quickened, fusing straight into the ‘corpse.’

In that instant.

The ‘corpse,’ dormant for over ninety thousand years, stirred ever so slightly.

But immediately, it stilled once more.

This shadowy Great World, matching the Xuanhuang Great World, stayed deathly still, save for the relentless churn of destructive Destruction Laws.

—————

Beyond the Xuanhuang Great World.

Ye Xuan's eyes held profound depths, a subtle smile gracing his lips.

He wasted no more time there; with a single thought, he instantly returned to the Demon Race lands in Qing State.

The clash here had concluded.

Gutian Nan, Qingming's Saint Master, Tianxuan Jumen, Tianquan Wenqu, and Tianji Lucun united to confront eighteen Great Sage Realm foes.

They exterminated them utterly.

Only Wuming, the Heaven and Earth Great Sage, was left alive.

Emperor Ye had declared before leaving his desire to slay this one personally.

The demise of seventeen Great Sage Realm powerhouses stained the Xuanhuang Great World's skies blood-red.

Yet the cataclysm from Emperor Ling Xiao's fall dwarfed it, evoking far greater dread.

“Ah ah ah ah, missing the fight with the Emperor General is so dull!”

Tianxuan Jumen, the plump one, grumbled.

“If you're that bold, why not head to the Heavenly Domain and challenge the Double Emperors?” Tianquan Wenqu remarked coolly nearby.

Tianxuan Jumen's eyes bulged, and he boasted, “Think I’m scared? Once I reach Emperor realm, I'll charge the Double Emperors first!”

Tianquan Wenqu snickered, “What’s the point boasting after becoming an Emperor?”

Tianxuan Jumen rolled his eyes, “What then? You do it?”

Tianquan Wenqu answered brightly, “I never claimed that.”

Tianxuan Jumen flipped a middle finger, “Tch…”

“Emperor Ye has arrived.”

Gutian Nan announced then.

All snapped to attention, bowing respectfully.

“Emperor Ye, what happened to Emperor Ling Xiao?”

Tianquan Wenqu paused briefly before asking.

Tianxuan Jumen rolled his eyes, “Need you ask? Emperor Ye obviously killed him.”

Ye Xuan eyed the chubby one, stating slowly, “You still need more tempering.”

Recalling past lessons, Tianxuan Jumen's rotund frame quivered, and he whined, “Mercy, Emperor Ye, I was wrong.”

Ye Xuan replied offhandedly, “Right guess, so spared this time.”

Tianxuan Jumen chuckled, eyes widening anew, “He really died?”

The others showed scant surprise.

The heavens' mourning anomaly had already unfolded, after all.

Who doubted Emperor Ye’s power?

“That’s impossible…”

The restrained Wuming Sword Sage gaped in shock, “Absolutely impossible!”

“Shut it!”

Tianxuan Jumen barked fiercely.

Ye Xuan fixed Wuming Sword Sage with an icy, detached stare.

For this betrayer, Ye Xuan felt no warmth.

Wuming Sword Sage hadn't betrayed him directly.

But he had forsaken the Emperor Immortal Sect.

Thus, Ye Xuan's killing urge toward him waned slightly.

Even so, arriving alongside Emperor Ling Xiao doomed Wuming Sword Sage.

“Senior…”

Sensing Ye Xuan’s gaze, Wuming Sword Sage tasted regret.

Ye Xuan dismissed Wuming Sword Sage, telling Tianxuan Jumen and the rest, “The Evil God Sect targeted All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds. I've wiped out the Evil God Sect, but other powers may incite disorder. Return to your worlds and mobilize the Beidou Seven Veins to reestablish peace.”

“Act in the Beidou Seven Veins' name. Clear?”

Ye Xuan directed.

They grew solemn, chorusing respectfully, “We obey Emperor Ye’s Decree.”

The Beidou Seven Veins exceed these few here.

They serve as mere representatives.

Ancestors and allies dwell in their worlds.

The Xuanhuang Great World hosts only Tianxu Tanlang and Yaoguang Pojun veins.

Eavesdropping, Wuming Sword Sage's heart thundered.

The Beidou Seven Veins?

He knew this faction!

An ancient, enigmatic force persisting eternally.

Now, Ye Xuan emerged as its hidden leader?!

Terror chilled Wuming Sword Sage.

What was Ye Xuan's reincarnated identity?

The ancestor—Lie Tian Emperor, perhaps?!

Ye Xuan’s prior disdain for the Double Emperors fueled Wuming Sword Sage's suspicion!

His mind churned in chaos.

“By the way, Emperor Ye, what of Yu Heng Lian Zhen and Kaiyang Wu Qu?”

Tianxuan Jumen questioned.

Beidou Seven Veins: Tianxu Tanlang, Tianxuan Jumen, Tianji Lucun, Tianquan Wenqu, Yu Heng Lian Zhen, Kaiyang Wu Qu, Yaoguang Pojun.

Five veins had awakened, yet Yu Heng Lian Zhen and Kaiyang Wu Qu lurked silent.

Emperor Ye summoning the Beidou Seven Veins meant those two must rally too.

“I'll deal with that myself.” Ye Xuan answered.

He had mulled it over earlier.

Likely handling internal matters.

Resolved, they'd reach out naturally.

No word after time? Ye Xuan would visit personally.

“We take our leave.”

Tianxuan Jumen probed no further; the group echoed.

Emperor Ye's order demanded swift, total fulfillment!

No instant wasted!

After their departure, Wuming Sword Sage eyed Ye Xuan timidly, “Um… senior, your true identity? My ancestor's rebirth?”

Ye Xuan eyed Wuming Sword Sage coldly, declaring flatly, “Lie Tian is my disciple.”
