A blood-red electric light travelled through the void, causing this piece of heaven and earth to coalesce with dense, tiny electric patterns, and the grass and trees between the mountains and rivers were all turned into robbed ash.
Even with Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual will, at this moment, he felt incomparably oppressive, much like the sky was about to collapse.
His face, became incomparably pale.
“Puffing.”
Thousands and thousands of electric lights, intersecting together, coalesced into a tall and thin old man at the location between the Morning Yi Sage and the Morning Sun Sage.
The old man’s head was all white, hanging down to where his knees were, his face was slim, his cheekbones convex, while on his body, he wore a splendid golden robe.
The golden robe was imprinted with eye-catching sun seals, and upon closer inspection, those sun seals, were actually rotating, each of them resembling a piece of heaven and earth.
This person was none other than Mister Mu Qian.
Sage Chen Yi and Sage Chen Xi bowed once again and said in unison, “Greetings to Master.”
Mr Mu Qian appeared to be in high spirits, holding a crystal glazed staff, his hawk-like eyes staring at Zhang Ruochen’s body, saying, “Eight hundred years ago, the relics of that Buddha Emperor of the Brahma Heavenly Dao should be in your possession. Right?”
The voice in which Mr Mu Qian spoke was rather light, yet, every word was like a heavy hammer that struck Zhang Ruochen’s body.
After finishing a sentence, Zhang Ruochen had already taken nineteen steps back, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Mr Mu Qian was a rather powerful spiritual cultivator, and to him, the thing he wanted the most was naturally the Buddha Emperor’s Sherri Sons.
As long as he obtained the relics, the strength of his spiritual power, would be able to increase by a large margin.
When they reached their realm, every step up in their spiritual power would also have a drastic change, and their strength would improve tremendously.
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze was calm and cold, showing no fear as he said, “That’s right, the Buddha Emperor’s Relic is placed inside the space ring in my hand, however, with a single movement of my mind, I can destroy the ring. Want to bet on whether you’re faster or I am?”
Mr Mu Qian frowned slightly.
Although, he was fully certain that he could kill Zhang Ruochen before he could destroy the spatial ring.
However, he didn’t dare to gamble.
What if there was an accident?
Wanting to find the second Buddha Emperor Relic was not an easy task.
“Junior, how about we talk about a deal?”Mr Mu Qian said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “You tell me first.”
“How about you hand over the Buddha Emperor’s Relic and Her Imperial Highness to the old man, and I’ll let you live?”Mr Mu Qian said very forcefully.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t buy it and sneered, “Think I’m a fool? If I were to hand over the Buddha Emperor’s Relic and the Yellow Sky Emperor’s Daughter to you, where would I have a way out?”
As he said this, Zhang Ruochen also quietly operated his Saint Qi, carrying it towards the talisman given to him by the Supreme Elder, preparing to activate the talisman.
The Elder Supreme, was the 10th Emperor back then, the talisman he gave out was definitely not a mortal product, saying that it might not necessarily be able to help Zhang Ruochen escape with his life.
Saint Chen Yi coldly shouted, ”How dare you, Master is the golden-robed Elder of the Immortal God Temple, Mr Mu Qian. What his elder says is naturally a promise. If he said that he would let you live, he would definitely not go back on his word.”
The Immortal God Temple, the highest power centre of the Immortal Blood Race, ruled the ten major tribes in the name of God, and could even decide on the ten major tribes’ patriarchal heir.
Of course, since a thousand years ago, when the Blood Queen had risen strongly and the imperial power began to grow, the influence of the Undying God’s Palace on the ten major tribes had been reduced a lot.
The Immortal God Temple was still quite terrifying, and the golden-robed elders that walked out of the temple had extremely high status.
Suddenly, Mr Mu Qian’s gaze, looked in the direction of the west, and the corner of his mouth hooked as he said, “Junior, you have lost your last chance by not compromising just now.”
Zhang Ruochen also realised something and looked towards the west.
Only to see that Huang Yichen, with her feet on a holy sword, flew down like a female sword fairy.
“You shouldn’t have come.”Zhang Ruochen sighed.
Just earlier, when Mr Mu Qian appeared, Zhang Ruochen had already sent a voice message to Huang Yichen, telling her not to follow her and to retreat immediately.
However, Huang Yichen still followed.
Huang Yichen’s gaze, looking towards the opposite side, said, “What makes you think that I would leave you behind and flee?”
Zhang Ruochen smiled bitterly and said no more.
Sage Morning Sun let out a loud laugh, “So it’s Zhang Ruochen’s fiancée, Huang Yichen, one of the Nine Great Realm Sons of the Human Race, it seems that today, Zhang Ruochen indeed had to compromise.”
Right at this moment, the Morning Sun Sage’s palm stretched forward, and a swirling wind force surged out from his palm, trapping Huang Yichen inside the wind force.
The Morning Sun Sage sneered, “Zhang Ruochen, why don’t you immediately obediently deliver the Buddha Emperor’s Sharpshooter to the hands of the Master Teacher?”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes chilled as he said, “Are you threatening me? I advise you to better not threaten me, or else, you will die a miserable death.”
With a smirk on his face, the Morning Sun Saint said disdainfully, “Do you believe that with a single movement of my Saint’s finger, I can crush your fiancée, into a mist of blood?”
Standing at the centre of the vortex, Huang Yichen didn’t panic and calmly said, “Just with you, you want to kill me too?”
“Boom!”
The Boundary Son Seal flew out, releasing a surging imperial aura that transformed into a golden cloud, shocking the wind vortex into shattering apart.
Having reached the Saint realm, Huang Yixian could make the Boundary Son Seal explode with even more power, and even though the Morning Sun Saint’s spiritual strength had reached the fifty-second rank, she still couldn’t suppress her.
“It’s said that the Boundary Son Seal is the strongest supreme treasure refined by Empress Chi Yao, and each one of them has endless power, and when I see it today, it’s really extraordinary.”
The Morning Sun Saint was a little surprised, clearly not expecting that a mere lower realm Saint could break free of her confinement.
Mr Mu Qian let out a deep shout, “The Boundary Son Seal is grasped in the hands of a junior like you, it can’t wield any real power at all, it’s better to let the old man bring it back to the Immortal God Temple as the Immortal God Temple’s temple-suppressing treasure.”
“What a big mouth, you think seizing a boundary son seal is really an easy task?”
Huang Yichen snorted coldly, actually not fearing Mr Mu Qian at all.
Naturally, Mr Mu Qian’s heart was still a little annoyed, normally, even when a Saint of the Immortal Blood Race saw him, he would have to bow and salute as a sign of respect.
Today, yet two juniors appeared in a row, surprisingly disrespecting him and not fearing him.
“Isn’t it an easy task?”
Mr Mu Qian wore a smile on his face, while at the same time, his dry fingers lifted up and pinched into a claw shape.
He was going to make these two juniors, beg for their lives and beg for their deaths.
Right at this moment, an old voice came from the direction behind Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yichen, saying, “Of course it’s not an easy task, at the very least, you have to pass through this Patriarch first.”
“What man?”
Mr Mu Qian was secretly a little surprised.
There was actually someone hiding nearby without him noticing.
How could such a thing happen?
Could it be that the other party was able to conceal his spiritual perception?
A half-white, half-black Confucian-robed old man walked out with his hands behind his back without slowing down, it was the Painting Sect’s Patriarch, Chu Siyuan.
When Zhang Ruochen saw Chu Siyuan walk out, he breathed a sigh of relief and secretly said, “So this old pauper who likes to show off blindly has rushed to Tiantai Prefecture.”
Chu Siyuan always had a righteous demeanour, feeling that Zhang Ruochen was on an evil path and wanted to lead him onto the right path. This made Zhang Ruochen still a little dissatisfied with him.
However, this old man’s strength was unfathomable, definitely one of the top figures of the Confucian Way, and it was possible to fend off that Mr Mu Qian.
Zhang Ruochen glanced towards Huang Yichen and now she wasn’t surprised at all and seemed to have known that Chu Si Yuan was nearby.
Huang Yichen detected Zhang Ruochen’s gaze, so she blinked and transmitted her voice, ”When I went to Yunzhong City with the Holy Book Talented Lady’s Blood Seal Holy Decree, it just so happened that Patriarch Chu was also a guest at the state pastor’s mansion. Therefore, Patriarch Chu was also aware of the matter over at the Black Market General Altar and had already rushed over a long time ago. When you sent a summons for me to leave, I also immediately sent a summons to his old man to inform him to rush over.”
“So that’s how it is.”Zhang Ruochen nodded gently.
Chu Siyuan’s preconceived notions about Zhang Ruochen ran deep as he snorted coldly and said, “What do you think then? If I hadn’t seen that you were also dealing with the Immortal Blood Clan, I would have definitely cleaned you up first.”
When he was in Ming Emperor City, Zhang Ruochen had pitted Chu Siyuan against him, and Chu Siyuan still held a grudge against him to this day.
Zhang Ruochen shrugged his shoulders and laughed, “Old senior, how about we deal with the enemy first before pursuing what happened in the past. Is that alright?”
Chu Siyuan turned his gaze to look at Mr Mu Qian on the opposite side of the room, a look of disdain in his eyes as he said, “Gold-robed Elder of the Immortal God’s Palace is at your level, what’s the point of competing with two little dolls, if you have the ability to fight with this Patriarch?”
Mr Mu Qian had already guessed Chu Siyuan’s identity, a scornful look appeared in his eyes, he let out a cold laugh and said, “So it’s the Sage of Painting who has arrived, he is indeed imposing.”
Chu Siyuan said in a calm manner, “This Patriarch observed the stars last night and has already projected that you have come to Tiantai Prefecture. Originally, only one disciple was intended to be sent to deal with you, but that disciple went to clean up the Yellow Sky Tribe’s Xia Prince, so this Patriarch was forced to take action himself.”
Zhang Ruochen frowned straight away, thinking that Chu Siyuan was just too dejected.
If you want to fight, just fight, why are you talking so much nonsense, moreover, every single word of nonsense was raising his own stature and defying his opponent. What if he lost the fight later?
Where would he put his old face?
Mr Mu Qian was even angrier, feeling that Chu Si Yuan was just too arrogant to underestimate him so much.
Chu Siyuan obviously didn’t see that the crowd was already very dissatisfied with him, and continued to smugly say: ”This Patriarch really doesn’t want to personally take action, but there is no way around it. Honestly speaking, this Patriarch’s disciples and grandchildren are spread all over the world, and among them, there are at least three of them, who can fight with you. It’s just a pity that two more are not in the Tiantai Prefecture.”
When he said this, Chu Siyuan also stretched out three fingers and pencilled them at Mr Mu Qian in a very impressive manner.
