Ye Xuan faced the old man's "Burning Sky" technique, unleashing a casual palm strike that sent the old man flying. The old man's nine Primordial Spirit Immortals were forced to merge with his true body, a desperate move that Ye Xuan countered by crushing them before they could fully reform. With the old man's soul then sent to the Underworld, Ye Xuan stood victorious.

The battle in the Underworld shall not be mentioned here for now.

Ye Xuan completely subdued and killed Liu Qingyuan.

It was also at this moment, the surrounding void changed.

Yet it seemed...

As if nothing had changed.

Because everything still existed.

Hong Mountain remained, unaffected in any way.

As if the battle just now was a false one.

But in reality, it was true.

Simply because the old man Liu Qingyuan’s methods had rewritten reality.

Before the battle began, they entered a Dimension World.

This is a technique belonging to the Fifth Layer of the Great Saint Realm.

Reverse Origin!

Reverse the dimension.

The world they were in truly existed, yet would not affect the real world.

However, Liu Qingyuan’s death was real.

For instance, right now.

Liu Qingyuan’s body still lay there.

As dead as one could be.

The battle came and went quickly.

It was merely in the blink of an eye.

So much so that when the fight ended, the middle-aged man and the young boy who had been watching, almost perishing, were still in a daze.

This was not quite the top-tier duel they had imagined.

Damn, it was too fast.

After dealing with Liu Qingyuan, Ye Xuan walked towards Ye Sixing.

The middle-aged man wanted to speak but seeing Ye Xuan’s figure, he was too awestruck to utter a word.

But the young boy, bold as he was, shouted loudly: "Senior, do you take disciples?"

Ye Xuan did not turn his head.

The boy felt somewhat disappointed.

"You are quite good, but I do not take disciples." Ye Xuan’s voice slowly sounded.

The boy, hearing Ye Xuan’s response, felt a surge of both surprise and joy, but Ye Xuan’s words nonetheless left him a bit helpless.

"Then, senior, do you think I can become a master like you in the future?" The boy asked courageously again.

"Of course..." Ye Xuan paused for a moment, then spoke, "You cannot."

The boy was initially delighted, then awkwardly smiled: "Indeed, masters like you are rare in this world, seeing you today is my good fortune."

Ye Xuan did not turn back but waved his hand and said, "Only speak sincerely, young man, cultivate well."

The boy, hearing this, his eyes lit up.

Saying sincere words, young man!

For some reason, hearing these words ignited a fire in the boy’s heart.

In the future, this fire was bound to spread across the land.

The boy’s name was Zhou Ergou.

In the future, the Emperor Road is his to walk.

Zhou Ergou believes that someday, there will be a breeze in the world to fulfill all his dreams!

Especially today.

.......

"Let’s go."

Ye Xuan left Hong Mountain with Ye Sixing.

A fierce battle thus came to an end.

But this battle was witnessed by countless eyes.

Especially by the Overlords above the Hong State.

Like the Longevity Family Jiang Family.

Primordial Hall.

Ancient Rakshasa Sect.

Blood Demon Sky Sect, etc.

Among them, naturally, was also the Longevity Family Red Sun River Liu Family.

The Red Sun River Liu Family paid the most attention to this battle.

This concerned the future of the Liu Family.

But seeing the battle at Hong Mountain end silently with Ye Xuan descending the mountain, they knew the Liu Family was finished.

The Family Head of the Liu Family slumped in his seat, eyes vacant, as if his soul had departed.

"The Liu Family is finished..."

"Everything is over..."

Liu Zhichuan murmured, muttering to himself.

He already understood that the strongest elder of the Liu Family, Liu Qingyuan, had fallen, but did not expect the battle to end so quickly, with the ancestor killed.

And the other party clearly knew that the Liu Family had acted.

In this way, the Liu Family was in peril.

Could it be that the Liu Family, which has existed since the Emperor Era, would be destroyed by him?

No!

He absolutely could not allow such a thing to happen!

Liu Zhichuan’s eyes suddenly shot out two beams of light, forcing himself to maintain spirit, sternly saying, "Immediately send away the newly born children in the family, each leaving behind our Liu Family’s inheritance, and assign a few clan elders for protection."

"As for the others..."

"Follow me to death."

This command sent out instantly cast a pall of sorrow over the Liu Family.

Follow us to death...

What kind of order was this?

This immediately caused a commotion within the Liu Family.

But the Longevity Family is indeed a Longevity Family, with deep reserves and grace.

Most people acted according to Liu Zhichuan’s command.

However, there were a few rebellious ones who did not obey orders and directly left the Red Sun River Liu Family.

In regard to all this, Liu Zhichuan did not stop them.

He even hoped those people could survive, for in this way, the Liu Family would have more hope.

Boom!

But in the next moment, a terrifying scene occurred by the Red Sun River.

From Fu Lei Heaven in the Heavenly State, a black saber descended from the sky, cutting down upon the Red Sun River Liu Family.

One slash.

Complete annihilation.

Except for the elderly, women, and children, all were killed under that single slash.

"Black Sky Blade!"

The warriors of Hong State, upon seeing that black blade, all had expressions of shock.

The fear once dominated by the Black Blade Sect resurfaced in their hearts.

"These demons, are they not dead yet..."

Someone whispered in the dark.

But soon there was no sound.

Because Qin Qi had already arrived, going to have tea with certain people.

Amidst these disturbances, Ye Xuan paid no mind.

This time, he was headed to the Longevity Family Jiang Family.

The Longevity Family established by Ye Xuan’s first disciple, the Emperor of Hundred Herbs, also known as Medicine Heavenly Emperor Jiang Yan.

Time is a very mysterious thing.

Just like Ye Xuan going to the Eternal Mountain Ye Family.

His adopted son became his ancestor.

His ancestor is his adopted son.

This is also why Ye Xuan has never come to the Jiang Family.

Upon discovering that his mother was a member of the Jiang Family, Ye Xuan seemed to foresee the experience at the Eternal Mountain Ye Family.

Though Ye Xuan’s Dao Heart is eternal and unyielding, such things are somewhat awkward after all.

However, this time he came because Ye Xuan sensed a familiar aura from the Jiang Family.

It was for this reason that he chose to come.

Before coming, Ye Xuan had already asked his mother Jiang Ye who his grandfather was.

The identity he obtained was none he was familiar with.

So there was nothing awkward about it.

As he descended Hong Mountain, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped.

In front of him.

A black halberd came piercing through the air.

Ripping through the void.

Ye Xuan squinted slightly.

The black halberd suddenly stopped.

As if it had been fixed in place.

Ye Xuan’s gaze passed over the black halberd, landing on the short-haired woman further behind.

The woman, clad in a fitted dress outlining her full figure, with certain aspects most prominent.

At that moment, the woman smiled brightly as she looked at Ye Xuan.

"Ye Xuan, long time no see!"

She gripped the black halberd, retracting it.

Behind her, an old man struggling to catch up shouted, "Little Lu Li, slow down!"

The girl with the halberd was indeed Lu Li!

The former disciple of the Dragon Burying Court, and one of the three Goddesses of the Southern Domain.

Currently cultivating in the Ancient Rakshasa Sect in Hong State.

Now Lu Li was already a Supreme.

But there was still some distance to traverse before ascending the Emperor Road to the Great Sage Realm.

Upon hearing of Ye Xuan’s arrival in Hong State, she rushed there immediately.

Just in time.

"Long time no see." Ye Xuan smiled slightly.

Lu Li’s gaze fell on Ye Sixing, looking odd, she said, "Didn’t you just come out of the Emperor Road not long ago? When did you and Youwei have a child?"

"Could it be before you entered the Emperor Road?"

"No, no, Youwei still came to see me before you entered Emperor Road."

"At that time, she wasn’t pregnant, and even if she was, the child wouldn’t have grown this much..."

Lu Li muttered to herself.
