Chapter 1129 1130: Coldness of the Human Heart
Chapter 1129 1130: Coldness of the Human Heart
The human heart is fickle.
Xiao Tianyu felt a chill in his heart; this was the big brother he respected, who, in order to satisfy his own desires, turned against him. Xiao Tianyu had never intended to fight for power; in fact, the vast kingdom covering millions of miles was never truly in his eyes.
Yet now, he was still viewed as a thorn in the side by the Celestial Emperor, an unbearable pain.
Once, everything the Celestial Emperor did for him was all about flattery and exploitation, nothing more.
And even seeks to eliminate Ye Qingcheng.
If the Celestial Emperor knew the vastness of the universe, perhaps he would not act this way. Moreover, Ye Qingcheng, chosen by the heavens, naturally has ambitions that lie beyond the Immortal Realm.
"Reveal yourselves!"
At this moment, Xiao Tianyu spoke softly to the void, for who was he but Xiao Tianyu, the Sovereign of the Divine Realm? One could say that from the moment he stepped into the Imperial Palace, he was aware of the lurking danger all around, and simply held onto a shred of fantasy without mentioning it.
"It's impressive that even after being poisoned, you have such strong perception. Truly worthy of being the foremost among the young generation!"
Not long after Xiao Tianyu's voice fell, an overwhelming imperial might descended from the sky, causing ripples across the tranquil lake. Then a voice with a sinister laugh echoed: "Hahaha, Celestial Emperor, you are more sinister than any of us, truly admirable..."
Xiao Tianyu's deep gaze slowly lifted as three figures roared into the void. The terrifying imperial might enveloped the Imperial City. Behind them were many strong Martial Venerables following.
Soon, the three figures descended above the lake, floating there.
These three were none other than the Demon Emperor, the Immortal Emperor of Ming, and the Great Emperor Jiuxian, obviously already in league with the Celestial Emperor.
This evening, the Celestial Emperor intends to kill Xiao Tianyu on the tranquil lake.
Xiao Tianyu's eyes scanned everything, showing no ripples of emotion.
Then, the Immortal Emperor of Ming spoke to Xiao Tianyu: "I never expected that someone as powerful as you was hidden in the Immortal Realm, and so young. Back in Cangye Kingdom, I vaguely felt you were extraordinary, but I didn't realize how extraordinary. I remember when I projected onto Cangye Kingdom, I was dispersed by a single sentence, though it was a youth named Gu Fengliu who shattered my projection, I could see that Gu Fengliu seemed to hold great respect for you, but never did I think he was your subordinate!"
"In Holy Capital Immortal Kingdom, with a single step, you were able to suppress the Saint Emperor. Such power is enough to transcend the Five Emperors. It's a pity you chose the wrong friends, ultimately leading to your downfall here!"
Having said this, the Immortal Emperor of Ming glanced at the Celestial Emperor and continued: "Celestial Emperor brother, am I right?"
Upon hearing this, the Celestial Emperor did not look pleased, for poisoning Xiao Tianyu was not a glorified act. Otherwise, he wouldn't have commanded the War Venerable to kill the Medicine Saint at Medicine Valley, just to keep the matter from spreading.
Said again, Xiao Tianyu, knowing his power surpassed the Five Emperors, lacked ambition. He had once saved the Celestial Emperor's life in a divine relic and even became sworn brothers with the Celestial Emperor.
And the Celestial Emperor, how did he repay him? First by exploiting him, then poisoning him to death. Such actions could be described as utterly despicable, and he sought to kill Ye Qingcheng.
"Xiao Tianyu, you never expected this!" At this moment, another voice resonated, spreading battle might that exposed all the lurking killing intent in this void. Shortly after, both War Venerable and Qing Venerable appeared, landing around the lake.
The War Venerable spoke: "We have waited for this day for two years. Two years ago, at Princess Di Xin's banquet, you crippled my grandson Lu Li's arm. I suppose you haven't forgotten!"
What War Venerable said was entirely accurate. Lu Li was originally the secret disciple of the Haotian Sect, and War Venerable had high expectations for him. Yet two years ago, he was crippled in one arm by Xiao Tianyu. Although for a Martial Cultivator, losing an arm is not too impactful, the enmity of that crippled arm, War Venerable could never forget.
But Xiao Tianyu had long forgotten all of this.
For him, Xiao Tianyu, has killed countless people in his life, would he care about a single Lu Li?
War Venerable continued: "Two years ago in the Imperial Palace Hall, you suppressed me with such majesty. Two years later, you would never have thought that this vast Imperial City would be your burial ground!"
Between the lines, there was no concealment of War Venerable's hatred.
"Grandfather!" At this moment, a Great Demon roared into the void with a fearsome demonic wind, and on the Great Demon's back stood a one-armed youth. War Venerable gazed at the Void Great Demon and said: "Li'Er, you came too!"
"I want to witness firsthand the fate that awaits the one who took my arm!"
Having said this, Lu Li gazed down, his eyes filled with boundless resentment. He was originally a peerless talent of the War Venerable's Mansion and a secret disciple of Haotian Sect. Just because he attended Di Xin's birthday banquet that day, he lost one arm, incomplete.
Moreover, in these two years, the shadow of Xiao Tianyu in his mind had become a nightmare. Unless he could witness the death of Xiao Tianyu himself, he wouldn't be satisfied.
Then, standing on the Great Demon, Lu Li looked down at Xiao Tianyu and said coldly: "Xiao Tianyu, as a dignified sovereign of a generation, you probably never dreamed it would end like this!"
"Li'Er, you shouldn't have come here!" War Venerable advised, for there might be a great battle about to occur, and even if Xiao Tianyu lacked cultivation, what about the Demon Emperor, the Great Emperor Jiuxian, and the Ming Emperor?
After eliminating Xiao Tianyu, another ancient battle might unfold.
After all, these sovereigns all sought to unify the Immortal Realm.
Actually, Lu Li originally didn't know what was happening; he just noticed that War Venerable was different from usual and came out of curiosity. Unexpectedly, he could witness Xiao Tianyu's fate today.
At this time, from another direction, Qing Venerable spoke to Xiao Tianyu: "Xiao Tianyu, do you still remember Qing Cang!"
Qing Cang was the one Xiao Tianyu killed, and now after Xiao Tianyu was poisoned, all the blood debts were coming to light.
Xiao Tianyu's gaze swept over the void, with a detached expression: "So I have such a multitude of blood debts!"
Swoosh~
As the voice fell, Xiao Tianyu's deep gaze suddenly turned ice-cold, as though it contained the Nine Nether Abyss, devouring everything, causing those present to shiver slightly in their hearts. This gaze was truly too cold, falling on anyone felt like being under an Ice Seal.
Even the Four Great Emperors had a sense of chilling fear, almost felt their souls trembling, seemingly about to be torn apart by the sharp gaze. Someone poisoned with an uncurable poison still had such a sharp gaze; this was unimaginable.
Almost as if these peerless figures, under Xiao Tianyu's gaze, were utterly insignificant.
"Xiao Tianyu!" At this moment, the Celestial Emperor felt a sense of panic, and shouted coldly at Xiao Tianyu: "The poison you have taken is uncurable, and even the Seven Meridians and Eight Vessels have been sealed, yet you still dare to resist!"
