The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 1772 - 1769: Gathering of Ferocious Beasts

Out from the cave residence emerged a stunning young woman—none other than Yun Si, Holy Daughter of Yuhua Immortal Sect.

Furthermore, Yun Si harbored an even more profound secret identity.

The personal disciple of Emperor Mu.

Yuhua Immortal Sect had kept this status under wraps, never revealing it, with knowledge limited to their innermost core.

It was exactly for this purpose that Zheng Wushan came down to the Lower Realm and arrived at Yuhua Immortal Sect.

Divine brilliance flickered in Yun Si's enchanting eyes as she departed the cave residence, a nine-tiered miniature tower levitating at her back.

"Mysterious Woman."

Spotting Yun Si, the many Yuhua Immortal Sect experts outside the cave hastened to offer salutes.

In theory, they outranked Yun Si in seniority as elders, but right then, they bent the knee to this younger cultivator.

The reason lay in Yun Si's extraordinary background and the immense boon she claimed inside the Great Ruins.

A Quasi-Emperor legacy formed only one piece of the puzzle.

Far more vital was the authenticated intel on the Immortal Treasure; securing it would forge an Immortal Body.

Who, then, could bar Yun Si's advance along the Emperor Road?

"You seem to have absorbed it exceptionally well."

Sensing the energy radiating from Yun Si, the typically stone-faced Zheng Wushan let a faint grin appear.

He picked up traces of True Destiny Great Sage aura from her.

All signs showed Yun Si had now penetrated further into the Heaven and Earth Great Sage domain.

The instant conditions aligned, True Destiny Great Sage status awaited her closely.

Yun Si smiled lightly at his remark and replied: "There is still a long road ahead."

"By the way, after spreading the news about the Immortal Treasure, have the people on the Mystic Yellow List taken action?"

Yun Si inquired.

Zheng Wushan offered no reply, uninvolved as he was; Yuhua Immortal Sect members managed that affair.

"The Mysterious Woman calculated shrewdly—after the news spread, everyone on the Mystic Yellow List mobilized into the Great Ruins, save Ye Xuan atop the list, who hasn't appeared."

An Elder radiating immortal aura fondled his flowing beard with a grin.

"Wait, why hasn’t Ye Xuan come?" Yun Si's brows creased faintly.

The assembly jolted at her words, then explained: "Ye Xuan bears enmity with our Yuhua Immortal Sect, so of course we deny him any chance."

Yun Si's lovely visage grew frosty as she snapped coldly: "Who permitted you to act alone?"

"Ye Xuan stands as Xuanhuang Great World’s acknowledged top Reserve Emperor; without him, spreading the news loses all purpose."

Her statement rendered Yuhua Immortal Sect’s elders and guardians mute.

"This old man issued the order—if the Mysterious Woman seeks to punish, direct it at me."

The immortal-aura Elder bowed with cupped hands.

Helplessness filled Yun Si's gaze toward this Elder: "Grandfather Chu..."

He served as her longtime supporter, ever watchful over her in Yuhua Immortal Sect; she cherished him like true kin.

With him orchestrating the deed, blame proved impossible.

"By the way, Mysterious Woman, the site Ruyi Sect once surveilled now faces trouble—shall we investigate?"

Another Elder interjected then, smoothly diverting attention.

"Let’s go have a look." Yun Si inclined her head.

As Yuhua Immortal Sect folk departed, nearby region's denizens stirred into motion too.

Such as Chi Yan Divine Sect’s Chi Yan Divine Son, Desolate God Demon Palace’s Witch Wang Xi, Qijian Mountain’s Du Qiuzhe, North Sea’s secluded Longevity Family Xiao Family’s Xiao Zhenlong, Kunlun Ruins’ Jiang Ya, Ziwei Sacred Land’s Ziwei Saint Heir, Primordial Hall’s Thousand Absolute Saint Heir, Ancient Rakshasa Sect’s Rakshasa Holy Daughter, and more.

These prodigies shared a key trait: all ranked on the Mystic Yellow List.

Many had tangled with Ye Xuan before.

Admittedly, some lacked any history with Ye Xuan.

For example, Primordial Hall’s Thousand Absolute Saint Heir and Ancient Rakshasa Sect’s Rakshasa Holy Daughter.

That said, the Thousand Absolute Saint Heir, despite no ties to Ye Xuan, once sparred repeatedly with Kunlun Saintess Jiang Ye in former times.

Back then, their Demon Sea clash seized Xuanhuang Great World’s intense focus.

Post-battle, Kunlun Saintess Jiang Ye receded from prominence.

Imprisonment in the Eternal Cage followed for her.

Jiang Ye’s name vanished from the Mystic Yellow List forever after.

That confrontation reshaped Jiang Ye’s entire fate.

Yet, Thousand Absolute Saint Heir emerged completely unscathed. Upon returning, he entered seclusion and skyrocketed into the top ten on the Mystic Yellow List.

Luckily, Kunlun Ruins kept producing brilliant talents. Subsequently, Zi Yang Heavenly Monarch climbed onto the Mystic Yellow List, though he was slain and struck from it, a Kunlun Ruins disciple called Jiang Ya soon arose afterward, claiming a position in the top twenty.

This occurrence left countless individuals throughout the Xuanhuang Nine States in awe of Kunlun Ruins' immense heritage.

Indeed, each generation surpasses the last with its geniuses.

Right now, everyone raced toward the spot where Ye Xuan and his group stood.

From afar, the area surrounding Ye Xuan and the others glowed under Infinite Mysterious Light, just like a peerless treasure on the brink of revealing itself.

These Mystic Yellow List prodigies had plunged into the Great Ruins specifically seeking the Immortal Treasure.

The scene before them strongly hinted that the Immortal Treasure was about to manifest.

They needed to arrive there at once.

Entering the Great Ruins had already inflicted heavy casualties on them.

Numerous mighty comrades who journeyed with them had already perished.

Failing to claim the Immortal Treasure would spell disaster for their efforts.

Every major power they represented possessed techniques to vaguely foresee the Emperor Road's arrival.

For these cultivators, every moment counted in this urgent contest against time.

Anyone who seizes the Immortal Treasure capable of forging an Immortal Body within this timeframe would dominate on the Emperor Road!

Within the vast Xuanhuang Great World, just a single Immortal Body is publicly acknowledged at present.

The True Dragon of the secluded Longevity Family Gu Family—Gu Changge.

Taiyang Immortal Body!

Though Gu Changge has never stepped into the public eye, his fame already echoes like thunder across the lands.

Even on this occasion, Gu Changge made no appearance.

Worth noting, Gu Changge doesn't rank on the Mystic Yellow List either.

The keepers of the Mystic Yellow List have stated clearly that it only honors the supreme prodigies among the present younger generation.

Exceeding the bone age limit or hailing from outside the Xuanhuang Great World bars entry, regardless of qualification.

This fuels widespread guesses that Gu Changge might be a Snow Storage; yet evidence confirms his birth in this very age.

As such, it lingers as one of the Xuanhuang Great World's enduring riddles.

At this instant.

The location of Ye Xuan and his allies now swarmed with dozens of horrifying Fierce Beasts.

In addition to the first wave—Heavenly Swallowing Toad, Blue Luan, Earth Demon Bull, Giant Spirit Clan, and Big Python—the Destructive Flood Dragon and Holy Fire Qilin arrived later as well.

These rank among the most dreaded entities within the Great Ruins.

Even an Invincible Great Sage would be forced to fall back before them.

Ruyi Sect members utterly ignored Ye Xuan, fleeing in abject panic to a distant spot.

Members of the Loose Cultivation Alliance put their faith in Ye Xuan, sticking near the Heavenly Swallowing Toad.
