The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 1862 - 1859: Warning

"You're acquainted with Gu Changge, aren't you? Our ancestor mentioned that this fellow is practically guaranteed a position as an Emperor in this life. In the future, he might even ascend to the height of Dual Emperors and initiate an Emperor Battle to vie for the ultimate title of the greatest emperor."

"Do you comprehend the significance of an Emperor Battle? It's a phenomenon born from the Emperor Era. Legend has it that in antiquity, when our human race was in decline, we were nothing more than Blood Food for all other races. The Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, in the name of the human clan, instigated an Emperor Battle amongst all races. It's whispered that back then, over a dozen Great Emperors clashed simultaneously in that monumental conflict."

"Alas, since the conclusion of the Emperor Era, Emperor Battles have ceased to be seen."

"Therefore, Little Uncle, I am destined to contend against such a peerless prodigy who may well ignite another Emperor Battle. The likelihood of my demise is considerable. Xinyu, you must accompany me, so that you can escort my remains back to the Immortal Crossing Sect."

The young man clad in white continued his ceaseless oration.

What was truly astounding was his ability to converse while in motion.

This caused the experts in the Great Sage Realm nearby no small amount of exasperation.

While he chattered, their attempts to comprehend the aura of the Dao were disrupted, compelling them to halt their progress, unable to advance further.

Yet, this fellow proceeded unimpeded, speaking as he walked, apparently without any need to immerse himself in the Dao’s aura.

"Qiao Xinyu, can you not silence this dog?"

The East Desolate Wolf, possessing a naturally short temper, found himself even more vexed at this juncture, voicing his displeasure directly to Qiao Xinyu.

Hai Dong, standing adjacent, was also experiencing considerable discomfort.

He harbored the suspicion that this individual, Tang Kui, whom he vaguely referred to as a 'snow storage guy,' was deliberately provoking them.

Originally, the trio had been among the vanguard to set foot on the Emperor Road. However, due to Tang Kui's persistent interference, they had fallen considerably behind Gu Changge.

Their attempts to sever their connection to their sense of hearing were thwarted when Tang Kui would invariably approach and dissolve their seals.

On multiple occasions, their frustrations nearly escalated into physical altercations.

Yet, invariably, just as hostilities were about to erupt, Tang Kui would deftly evade, infuriating them to an unimaginable degree.

Hai Dong, who prided himself on his equanimity, found himself, even in his current state, harboring an intense desire to pummel this Tang Kui; the man was simply too infuriating!

Upon hearing the East Desolate Wolf's lament, Qiao Xinyu's beautiful eyes, concealed beneath her veiled hat, flared with a cold glint. She calmly responded, "If you truly find him unbearable, you are welcome to try addressing the situation yourself, but be prepared to face the repercussions."

The East Desolate Wolf bared his fangs fiercely, asserting aggressively, "I shall try; I harbor no fear of him."

As he spoke, the East Desolate Wolf genuinely steeled himself to initiate an attack.

Qiao Xinyu extended her hand, intercepting the East Desolate Wolf's intent.

"What are you doing?"

The East Desolate Wolf shot her a fierce glare.

Qiao Xinyu cast her gaze toward their rear.

The East Desolate Wolf seemed to apprehend something and looked back, a surge of delight washing over him. "The Master has arrived!"

Not far behind, Ye Xuan was progressing with Liang Difan and Cheng Kes in tow.

In contrast to the majority, these three were advancing with remarkable speed.

This was primarily because many others were compelled to pause and absorb the Dao's essence before proceeding.

Individuals like Ye Xuan constituted a distinct minority, after all.

"Oh, so swift?"

The young man attired in white displayed a hint of surprise upon witnessing this development.

"Now you fear? I dare you to cease your fleeing." The East Desolate Wolf, bolstered by the arrival of reinforcements, straightened his posture, radiating an imposing aura.

The young man in white let out a chuckle. "Why would I halt? One cannot afford to falter on the Emperor Road."

As he uttered these words, the young man in white intensified his pace.

Before Ye Xuan could reach them, the young man in white expertly widened the chasm between them.

It appeared he had no inclination to confront Ye Xuan prematurely.

"Damn dog."

The East Desolate Wolf spewed this insult towards the retreating figure of the white-clothed youth without a hint of reservation.

The expelled saliva dissipated in mid-air.

This seemed to be an unspoken rule governing the Emperor Road.

"Master."

The East Desolate Wolf appeared poised to convey something further.

Ye Xuan raised his hand, signaling him to desist.

The East Desolate Wolf reluctantly suppressed his words.

Ye Xuan proceeded to the vanguard of their group.

Qiao Xinyu surveyed Liang Difan, discerning the peculiar power emanating from him.

It was strangely potent, almost frightening.

She had experienced a similar sensation, albeit more subtly, from Emperor Ye.

That distinct feeling signified a unique form of power.

Unbeknownst to Qiao Xinyu, Liang Difan was none other than a Taiyin Ancient God, endowed with the Taiyin Immortal Body.

Ye Xuan too possessed the Taiyin Immortal Body, accounting for the shared resonance of power.

"This is merely the threshold of the Emperor Road; engaging in conflict here is futile."

Ye Xuan softly stated, aiming to quell the inner turmoil of his companions.

In truth, on several occasions, Qiao Xinyu had been on the verge of drawing forth her Black Sky Blade to engage Tang Kui in a decisive confrontation.

However, she had exercised restraint, deferring the engagement until Emperor Ye's arrival.

After all, this was the Emperor Road, and every single choice made could significantly influence one's future.

Consequently, she was unable to act rashly.

Now, with Ye Xuan's words, Qiao Xinyu's decision to exercise restraint proved to be truly wise.

"However..."

Ye Xuan paused for a moment, a smile gracing his lips, "Once this current stage concludes and following the profound baptism of the Dao, you will be free to engage in combat however you please, without any need for restraint."

"For the time being, your sole focus should be on continuing forward."

Ye Xuan said this in a leisurely tone.

His words seemed to possess a special kind of power, instantly bringing a sense of calm to everyone's hearts.

The six individuals proceeded together.

Before long, they managed to catch up to Tang Kui, who had initially established a considerable lead.

Tang Kui, upon noticing the approaching group, appeared somewhat surprised. However, this time, he refrained from speaking much, instead dedicating his attention to immersing himself in comprehending the aura of the Dao.

Having heard Ye Xuan's earlier admonition, figures like the East Desolate Wolf found no reason to waste further words, even when encountering Tang Kui, they chose to disregard him.

Yet, as they passed by, Ye Xuan cast a single glance at Tang Kui.

Boom!

In that precise instant, Tang Kui felt an explosive sensation in his scalp; he found it impossible to maintain his composure.

The formidable aura of the Dao descended like a relentless flood, instantly pressing down on Tang Kui, nearly forcing him to the ground.

Tang Kui drew a deep breath, his gaze hardening with seriousness. He compelled himself to regain his calm, slowly adapting to the oppressive aura of the Dao. He then stood upright, turned towards Ye Xuan, and narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Brother Ye Xuan, truly impressive."

As he finished speaking, Tang Kui gave Ye Xuan a congratulatory thumbs-up.

Ye Xuan regarded Tang Kui with a composed demeanor, unhurriedly stating, "This was merely a warning. Should you still possess no regard for your own life, upon reaching the true Emperor Road, I shall grant your wish."

With those words, Ye Xuan continued on, leaving Tang Kui behind.

Although engaging in combat at the entrance of the Emperor Road was ultimately futile and would be met with suppression from the Dao's aura,

If Ye Xuan were truly to initiate a fight, he would show no concern for such restrictions.

Soon after, Ye Xuan and his group had left Tang Kui far behind.

Gradually, the six individuals pressed onward towards the front of the procession.

Positioned at the very forefront were the most elite cultivators from the Xuanhuang Great World. The majority were either Invincible Great Sages or True Destiny Great Sages.

Others included outstanding individuals featured on the Mystic Yellow List, prominent figures among the top-tier talents, or those known as reincarnators.

As they reached this advanced stage, many familiar faces came into view.

There was Little Cousin Jiang Ya, the Witch Wang Xi, the Ziwei Saint Heir, the Heavenly Wing Little Peng King, Jin Baikong, and several others.

Upon catching sight of Ye Xuan, any individuals who harbored grievances against him made a point of avoiding his path.

This was particularly noticeable with Hua Ming and the Feather Transformation Mysterious Woman.

Meanwhile, Ye Xuan was actively searching for a specific individual.

It was the Qianjue Saint Heir.
