The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 2039 - 2036: The Beginning of Destruction

In fact, both Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei knew that this time was a bit different—bringing Ye Sixing along would likely invite other kinds of danger.

It was better to leave her where she was.

Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei crossed the vast starry sky together and arrived at that same Dark stretch of universe.

On the way, Ye Xuan asked Zhou Youwei, "Did you come because you asked about me at the Jiang Family, or because you sensed Sixing was in danger?"

Zhou Youwei smiled slightly, revealing those lovely little dimples. "Both. But the more important reason is still that power within the Jiang Family."

"Husband, I imagine you also sensed something off about that power, which is why you showed up here, right?"

Zhou Youwei looked at Ye Xuan with a smiling gaze.

Ye Xuan nodded slightly and said, "That’s right. This power is very strange—left unchecked, it might wipe out the Jiang Family. Even though the Jiang Family just did something stupid to Sixing, whether from my mother’s side or from my own standpoint, I can’t just watch the Jiang Family be destroyed."

Zhou Youwei did not press further on this.

Previously, the two had opened their hearts, sharing their experiences, and both understood the other had gone through many shocking events.

The Jiang Family were the descendants of Ye Xuan’s eldest disciple, the Medicine Heavenly Emperor Jiang Yan.

Besides that, there was another very important point.

During the Wilderness Era, the Jiang Family had always been supporting the Human Clan.

Later, when the Myriad Artifacts Divine Emperor Ou Zhizi took over, they still remained the main force of the Human Clan.

And also...

This was, after all, the home of his mother and grandfather.

For that reason alone, Ye Xuan could not stand by and watch the Jiang Family be destroyed.

Besides, that power...

Was something that needed to be properly dealt with in the first place.

Before long, Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei descended into the Dark universe.

By the time they arrived, the higher-ups and powerhouses of the Jiang Family had already gathered there.

"Young Master Ye."

Seeing Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei arrive, everyone cupped their hands in greeting.

But toward Zhou Youwei, some members of the Jiang Family remained cautious.

"Xiao Xuan, Youwei."

Jiang Zhao took the initiative to fly over.

"Uncle."

Ye Xuan smiled faintly.

Zhou Youwei followed and called out as well.

"Is that power about to fully erupt?"

Jiang Zhao skipped all pleasantries and went straight to the point, his expression grave.

Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly. "Erupting, I’m not sure. But very soon, that power will bare its fangs."

Zhou Youwei fixed her gaze on the Void Ye Xuan had been watching earlier and said softly, "It doesn’t seem to be from that Domain."

Not that Domain.

What that referred to...

Only Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei knew.

It was not the Dou Tian Divine Domain!

"In the End War, did you ever see any others?"

Ye Xuan said quietly.

Zhou Youwei shook her head.

Back then, she had been suppressed by the Heavenly Sea, propping up the Emperor Pass Great Wall as she fought the enemy with all her might.

As for other matters, she naturally had no mind to pay attention.

"Have you ever thought that that Domain might not have been of one heart..."

Ye Xuan asked again.

Zhou Youwei still shook her head. "Honestly, I didn’t care about that at the time. I just thought that as long as my strength reached the level where I could behead all the enemies beneath the walls, all problems would naturally be solved."

Ye Xuan shook his head with a wry smile. "You really are a Rash Man."

Zhou Youwei glared at Ye Xuan in dissatisfaction. "You’re the Rash Man."

Off to the side, Jiang Zhao was left dumbfounded listening to this. Before he could react, he saw the two start flirting and bickering, and he couldn’t help but clear his throat twice. "Xiao Xuan, Youwei, do you have any thoughts on this situation?"

Zhou Youwei rubbed her delicate nose and said softly, "There’s a very simple way—when soldiers come, we use generals; when water comes, we use earth to dam it."

Jiang Zhao: "...That really is a great solution."

Ye Xuan nodded. "My Youwei is still very smart."

Zhou Youwei looked at Ye Xuan with dead-fish eyes. "Why do I feel like you’re sarcastically calling me stupid?"

Ye Xuan rolled his eyes. "Heaven and earth as my witness, my Youwei is the smartest."

Zhou Youwei snorted twice. "That’s more like it."

Jiang Zhao: "..."

Jiang Zhao felt thoroughly redundant as an uncle. He gave a dry laugh and said, "You two keep chatting, I’ll go check on the situation."

Then Jiang Zhao realized that this couple kept talking among themselves and didn’t respond to him at all.

All right then.

Ignored again.

Jiang Zhao smiled bitterly and left on his own.

After Jiang Zhao left, Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei continued talking for a while.

Rumble!

At that moment—

Another terrifying blast of power suddenly erupted.

This time, it was completely different from before.

That Dark universe actually began to collapse at this very moment!

Destruction that could annihilate heaven and earth!

At the site of the collapse, a vast Chaos surged in.

"This is bad!"

"Make a move!"

The Jiang Family higher-ups, seeing this scene, immediately changed expression.

Almost without hesitation, they struck out to intercept!

Rumble, rumble, rumble!

In an instant, all the Jiang Family powerhouses attacked with full force.

Wave after wave of Mana, vast as the sea, swept across the sky.

They were trying to stop this universe from collapsing.

Because this destructive power was spreading—if they weren’t careful, it might even affect the entire world!

Pull one hair and the whole body follows; this was exactly such a situation!

Jiang Zhao did not sit idle either, displaying the terrifying might of the Great Saint Realm.

Reversing Qian Kun!

At such a moment, perhaps only Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei could remain calm.

The husband and wife both stared at the center of the collapse.

The Chaos Qi there was the most terrifying.

It sought to return everything to primal origin!

"Whose power is this, exactly..."

Zhou Youwei’s willow brows knitted slightly as she muttered under her breath.

Ye Xuan chuckled. "If even you don’t know, then no one does."

Zhou Youwei glanced at Ye Xuan and said evenly, "You really think I don’t know you’ve had contact with those fellows?"

Ye Xuan’s smile froze at once.

Zhou Youwei smiled again, this time with a hint of warmth. "But I know even better that this is your layout, Husband. You have your own considerations. I won’t say much about it."

Ye Xuan let out an awkward laugh.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix, the Yang Demon—he had had contact with all those guys, and Zhou Youwei’s role in the End War had been too important. How could she not know about them?

He just hadn’t expected Zhou Youwei to be so sensitive, to notice even this much.

Or perhaps...

The memory seal Hong Yao placed on Zhou Youwei had basically already been lifted.

Ye Xuan looked at the beauty beside him, deep in thought.

When had it started?

Last time, on that cliff?

Most likely.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan’s mood inexplicably brightened.

Feeling the change in Ye Xuan’s gaze, Zhou Youwei’s pretty face flushed slightly. She gritted her teeth and said, "What are you looking at? Focus."

Ye Xuan rubbed his nose. "Don’t worry, it’s not a big problem."

As the two bantered, at the center of the collapsing universe, the Chaos churned ever more violently, growing more terrifying.

Like a raging storm over a vast sea.

Even though the Jiang Family powerhouses were continually suppressing it, their efforts were just a drop in the bucket—they couldn’t stop that power’s erosion at all.

This made every Jiang Family powerhouse go pale.

Were they really going to just watch this place be destroyed?

"What is that?"

Right then, Jiang Zhao suddenly noticed a corner of bronze emerging at the center of the Chaos.

Next, under everyone’s stunned gaze—

An ancient Bronze Coffin slowly flew out from the Chaos at the center of the collapsing universe.

And the source of that power was clearly this Bronze Coffin!
