The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 2140 - 2137: Eternal Night Pavilion

Yun Shan, the Emperor General, looked at Ye Xuan with a complex expression. In the end, he bowed and said bitterly, "I just hope Emperor Ye, for the sake of past relationships, doesn’t destroy the Empress Palace too completely..."

"Past relationships?"

Upon hearing those words, Ye Xuan suddenly smiled: "If that thing were truly valuable, there wouldn’t have been that betrayal back then."

"What do you think, Yun Shan."

Ye Xuan looked at Yun Shan, the Emperor General.

Yun Shan, the Emperor General, was silent and said nothing, letting out a desolate sigh as he stepped aside.

The other six Emperor Generals had different thoughts but did not dare to obstruct Ye Xuan.

With the seven Emperor Generals making way, it was already an undeniable fact that Emperor Ye’s return to the Heavenly Domain could not be stopped.

They had pondered over this day.

When they found out that Ye Xuan was indeed Emperor Ye, they had been calculating when this day would arrive, and in what manner it would arrive.

They had envisioned many scenarios.

Envisioning Ye Xuan reclaiming the Great Emperor Realm, then forcibly coming back.

Also envisioning Ye Xuan bringing peerless experts from the Revenge Lineage, directly breaking through the Heavenly Domain.

Also thought about Ye Xuan coming alone.

But they never expected Ye Xuan to come so soon.

And moreover, there was even a Great Emperor following him...

Or rather, two!

They weren’t fools. Although Kuang Nu did not make a move while following Ye Xuan, they did not think Kuang Nu was without power.

After all, the threat Kuang Nu posed to them was also terrifying.

Otherwise, why didn’t the others make a move when the Blood Robe Emperor General was suppressed by the Qiankun Ancestor?

It was because they simply couldn’t make a move.

The invisible pressure bore down on them, bringing them immense threat.

They could only watch as Ye Xuan rode the Phoenix straight toward the Empress Palace.

For a long time.

All the Emperor Generals were silent.

"Yun Shan, do you not know where the Empress went?"

One of the Emperor Generals couldn’t help but ask.

Among them, besides Lian Ruyu who had disappeared earlier, Yun Shan was the most trusted Emperor General by the Empress.

Upon hearing this, Yun Shan, the Emperor General, shook his head slightly and said, "I only know she went to the Outer Heaven, but you all know, the Outer Heaven has no trace of the Empress’s aura."

The crowd remained silent.

In truth, they all had one thought in mind.

The Empress...

Could it be that she was afraid?

But as subordinates, they wouldn’t voice it aloud.

Emperor Mu and the Empress, although reputed to reach the very peak.

But as Emperor Generals, they understood very well.

The Double Emperors truly had not reached the peak.

Because the Double Emperors hadn’t truly carried the Tian Ming.

If a Great Emperor cannot carry the Tian Ming, they cannot rule this era, and naturally cannot be claimed to have reached the supreme peak.

Perhaps it was for this reason that when the Double Emperors detected there was a Great Emperor Realm figure under Emperor Ye, they chose to retreat.

Of course, this thought was relatively minor.

They preferred to believe that the Double Emperors were preparing for the War of Tian Ming.

After all, having already stepped into the Great Emperor Realm, there isn’t much talk of fear.

If they truly feared.

The event nine thousand years ago wouldn’t have happened.

"Forget it, I’m going back to Xuanlu Tian, this is too stifling."

A burly man clad in the Xuanlu Divine Armor smirked and transformed into a Divine Rainbow, disappearing into the Heavenly Domain Gate.

This burly man was known as the Xuanlu Emperor General.

The Xuanlu Divine Armor he wore was the most renowned treasure of Xuanlu Tian, obtained in this lifetime by the Xuanlu Emperor General.

Xuanlu Emperor General himself, also came from a mighty Sect in Xuanlu Tian, and after a battle with the Empress on the Emperor Road, eventually became the Emperor General under Empress Changxi.

Today’s encounter left the Xuanlu Emperor General extremely frustrated.

Out of sight, out of mind.

He decided not to bother with the affairs of the Undying Heaven anymore.

The other Emperor Generals who lived in the Undying Heaven also left one after another.

Even the two Emperor Generals residing in the Undying Heaven found excuses to drink or whatever and left as well.

In the blink of an eye, only Yun Shan, the Emperor General, remained.

Yun Shan, as the strongest Emperor General under Empress Changxi, was meant to guard the Undying Heaven.

Yet in this situation, he could only stay behind and watch the Empress Palace be destroyed.

Yun Shan, the Emperor General, however, did not have much emotional fluctuation. He flew to the Ancient Divine Mountain at the westernmost end of the Undying Heaven and pulled out the unconscious Blood Robe Emperor General to heal him.

That’s all he could do now.

As for the Empress Palace...

Let fate decide.

————

Undying Heaven.

Empress Palace.

Much like Emperor Mu’s Palace in Emperor Mu’s Heaven, the Empress Palace was built in the Sacred Land where the spiritual energy was the most abundant in the Undying Heaven.

Compared to the grandeur and majesty of Emperor Mu’s Palace, the Empress Palace’s carvings in some details appeared a bit more delicate.

At the moment when the eight Emperor Generals made way.

The Empress Palace had already sunk into despair.

When they saw Ye Xuan riding the Phoenix descend in front of the Empress Palace.

The ten Guard Generals, who were guarding the Empress Palace, chose to turn a blind eye and retreated to the distance with pale faces.

However, this time.

Ye Xuan was not as domineering as when entering Emperor Mu’s Palace.

A whoosh————

The Heavenly Phoenix Emperor gently flapped its wings, slowly descending before the Empress Palace.

Ye Xuan, the Qiankun Ancestor, and Kuang Nu dismounted.

The Heavenly Phoenix Emperor turned into a featherless chicken and followed the three.

Just like that, they entered the grand door of the Empress Palace calmly.

Beyond the threshold, they saw many young cultivators inside the Empress Palace nervously watching Ye Xuan.

But no one dared to speak.

The message sent back by Yun Shan, the Emperor General, instructed everyone not to obstruct.

Perhaps there was a slim chance of survival.

Otherwise, certain death.

So for now, though the Empress Palace housed countless unparalleled geniuses and elders, none dared to utter a word before Ye Xuan.

They didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.

Only the sound of Ye Xuan and his companions’ footsteps could be heard.

Neither light nor heavy, yet it kept pounding in the hearts of everyone in the Empress Palace, leaving them anxious.

Until Ye Xuan walked step by step away, not looking at them from beginning to end, did they finally breathe a sigh of relief.

What Yun Shan, the Emperor General, said was right.

Only by yielding was there a faint chance of survival.

One incense stick later.

Ye Xuan traversed the corridor leading to the Cloud Sky, arriving at a pavilion suspended high above the sky.

"Eternal Night Pavilion?"

The featherless chicken muttered upon seeing the plaque on the pavilion: "There’s no night here, why is it called the Eternal Night Pavilion?"

The Qiankun Ancestor looked at the plaque, then at the unmoving master Ye Xuan, understanding much in his heart.

Ye Xuan smiled slightly, his eyes calm as water, and said quietly, "Someone once was invincible in the night across eternity, so naturally, it’s called the Eternal Night Pavilion."

The featherless chicken was taken aback and muttered, "Isn’t that Emperor Ye himself?"

"Huh?!"

"Emperor Ye, do you have some relationship with Empress Changxi?"

It was at this moment the featherless chicken reacted.

"Phoenix Brother!" The Qiankun Ancestor glanced at the featherless chicken.

The featherless chicken instantly understood, shut its mouth, and no longer spoke.

Ye Xuan withdrew his gaze from the three characters of Eternal Night Pavilion, and calmly said, "It doesn’t hurt to tell you. Empress Changxi was once my disciple, and also my wife at that time..."
