The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 1950 - 1947: About the Same
Previously on The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor...
"I’m just afraid there’s too little meat on you."
Ye Xuan’s eyes glinted coldly.
Boom!
In an instant.
A terrifying power of devouring erupted, distorting the eerie child beyond recognition.
A flicker of fear appeared in the eerie child’s eyes.
In that instant, the eerie child felt a deadly threat.
This guy is peculiar!
The eerie child tried to struggle but suddenly found Ye Xuan’s hands were like iron clamps, holding him immobile.
"This is bad!"
The eerie child was startled, as strange Dao Patterns flowed from the eye on his forehead.
For a moment, the void seemed to twist.
The world in Ye Xuan’s eyes turned dark and bewildering, bizarre beyond belief, with all sorts of strange cries mixed in.
And the eerie child seemed to vanish from sight.
Immediately afterward, an invisible force started pulling Ye Xuan downward, dragging him into the endless abyss, never to return!
Ye Xuan remained calm, the Dao Patterns in his eyes also swirling.
In an instant.
Everything returned to normal, the eerie child was still captured in his hands.
"What!?"
Seeing Ye Xuan so easily breaking free from the confines, the eerie child was shocked.
Meanwhile, Ye Xuan’s Swallowing Path continued.
This caused the eerie child’s strength to weaken continuously, while Ye Xuan’s strength rapidly increased.
With such a rise and fall, it wouldn’t take long for the balance to be broken.
The eerie child initially intended for his power to infiltrate Ye Xuan’s body, to dismantle Ye Xuan from within.
The eerie child held unshakable confidence in his own power.
That’s why he hadn’t resisted Ye Xuan’s Swallowing Path, but instead went along with it.
But as time went by, the eerie child sensed danger.
By the time he wanted to resist, it was already too late.
Ye Xuan’s strength grew stronger and stronger.
The plan to collapse Ye Xuan from the inside fell through as well.
His strength, once devoured by Ye Xuan, directly transformed into Ye Xuan’s power, completely beyond his control.
The anticipated scenario where Ye Xuan would rot away and die simply never showed signs of occurring.
The eerie child felt somewhat panicked and uneasy.
At this moment, seeing all his methods suppressed by Ye Xuan, the eerie child grew increasingly unsettled.
This guy, something’s not right!
"Little brother, okay, your strength has been acknowledged by me, stop now."
The eerie child said slowly, trying to stay calm.
Ye Xuan chuckled and said, "What’s the matter, can’t hold on any longer?"
The eerie child sneered, "Just you?"
Ye Xuan said, "Just me."
The eerie child: "..."
This damned thing, tough as nails! the eerie child cursed inwardly.
Time flowed slowly.
The eerie child was starting to crumble, "Hey, hey, hey, that’s enough, do you really want to drain me completely dry?"
Ye Xuan said nothing.
The strange beings watching from afar were already shocked beyond measure.
This Night Emperor, isn’t he too powerful? Could he actually subdue this being so that he couldn’t move?
"The reason you think he can’t be defeated, is merely because you haven’t seen his weaknesses. Like you, he was buried here years ago, surely because of severe injuries."
The Tree God softly said, "You probably always thought he didn’t care for you at all, never using his full power, never even showing his true form. In reality, it’s because his true form cannot appear. Once he appears and you find his weaknesses, there’s a risk of you slaying him. So, he chose to heal over time and only manifests when he ensures he can overpower you."
"Just like now."
The Tree God’s words were clearly meant for the strange beings listening.
Upon hearing these words and recalling his painful past, the strange being felt more and more deceived.
"Such deep calculation!"
The strange being snorted coldly.
"It’s not his deep calculation, but rather that you are too foolish," Chaos Ghost Fang’s deep and hoarse voice slowly rang out.
The strange being felt a tinge of embarrassment but did not refute.
"I must admit, Ye Xuan is truly ferocious. Could he be the reincarnation of some Ancient Immortal Realm giant?"
The strange being shifted the topic to Ye Xuan, speaking thus.
Chaos Ghost Fang remained silent, as did the other twelve giants, only the Tree God said leisurely, "No one can say for sure about his origins, but what we do know is enough to prove he will inevitably become an invincible existence leading an entire new epoch."
The strange being pondered and said, "In the future, will the Dou Tian Divine Domain invade again?"
The Tree God spoke softly, "No one knows. It’s been too long since that war, and both the Ancient Immortal Realm and Dou Tian Divine Domain seem as if they’ve vanished. No one knows what the future holds."
"But I have a premonition, the battle of the Immortal Ancient End will happen again in the future, and it will likely be even more intense."
Upon hearing these words, the strange being suddenly showed fury: "What on earth do those bastards want?"
But no one could answer the strange being’s question.
The Tree God, Chaos Ghost Fang, and the other twelve giants of the Void Divine Realm were also pondering this question but never found an answer in their lifetime.
In Ye Xuan’s words, the simplest analysis of actions is nothing more than the word ’benefit’.
Maybe the other side discovered the Ancient Immortal Realm and wants to seize its resources?
If that’s all there is to it, then directly launching a life-and-death battle seems excessive, even downright foolish.
So, there is some hidden secret, about which they remain completely ignorant.
"Have you placed your bets entirely on Ye Xuan?"
The strange being looked at Ye Xuan, who was devouring the eerie child at this moment, and said softly.
The Tree God chuckled, "You’re wrong."
The strange being was a bit surprised, "Oh? Please enlighten me, Tree God."
The Tree God smiled and said, "It’s not that we’ve placed our bets on him, but that, apart from him, no one else can save us."
Upon hearing this, the strange being was profoundly shaken and stayed silent for a long time.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the eerie child was beginning to concede.
"Brother, enough is enough!" the eerie child said.
Ye Xuan still ignored the eerie child, because he was gradually devouring a familiar power.
Origin Power!
The Origin Power from the Dou Tian Divine Domain!
This eerie child seemed mediocre, but it was unexpected that he also possessed Origin Power.
However, compared to the Ghost Land of the Ghost Great World and beings like the Divine King of Rakshasa, he was still too weak.
Rough estimates put him on par with those beings from the Dou Tian Divine Domain evolved by the Desolate Realm Sovereigns.
So, perhaps the true strength of this eerie child is not as formidable as imagined.
"Brother, I really can’t take it anymore. If you keep going, I’ll get angry."
The eerie child said.
