Chapter 1555 - 1538: The Road Ahead Is Blocked
Xiao Ye appeared, shaking the Ten Great Passes; this is undoubtedly one of the most important events in the era of Dark Turmoil.Before the arrival of Dark Turmoil, this name had become famous across the True Spirit Continent and was hailed as the strongest youth of his generation, single-handedly pressuring his peers to bow their heads. Even the energy avatar of the Iron Blood Emperor was on friendly terms with him, showcasing an imperial demeanor.
Rumors eventually spread that Xiao Ye, like other Heavenly Pride, had fallen during the Dark Turmoil, leading to much lament from martial artists: Heaven begrudges talents.
And now, this mighty figure who once challenged the Iron Blood Emperor Domain and slaughtered half-emperor strong people is back. What does this signify? It’s enough to unsettle and alarm many.
After all, no one wishes to be suppressed in this era once again, feeling that unbeatable sense of despair. Moreover, rumors are being spread that Xiao Ye possesses the Four Emperor Treasures.
Especially, with news spreading that Xiao Ye’s cultivation has fallen to Emperor Realm Level Six, it draws countless eyes, familiar and unfamiliar, with killing intent like the sea and war intent soaring to the sky.
Xiao Ye, accompanied by Xiao Fan, Zhuang Zhou, and Prince Donghuang, travels against the flow within the Ten Great Passes, heading toward the First Pass. He feels the killing intent quietly spreading within the pass, as if facing an enemy of the whole world. Though he treats it calmly, he sighs inwardly.
Inside Hanling Pass, he uncovered the secret techniques on Wu Feng and pointed out the conspiracy of the Heavenly Emperor, aiming to warn the martial artists in the Ten Great Passes.
He had personally witnessed the scenes within the Ten Thousand Burial Pits and learned the truth from Ling, fully aware that those who use such supreme evil techniques are far from virtuous.
However, his warnings were of little use, causing only minor commotion before being overshadowed by the news of his appearance.
Is this human nature?
The appearance of Xiao Ye is more significant than the Heavenly Emperor’s conspiracy?
Or perhaps many do not wish for him to return to the True Spirit Continent to become the strongest of this era?
Ten Great Passes, on the ancient road of stars.
"Damn it, looking at these people’s expressions, it seems they’re itching to make a move against Ye Zi."
"I bet before we leave the Ten Great Passes, someone won’t be able to hold back." Prince Donghuang spoke bluntly, swearing.
As soon as they stepped out from the Sixth Pass, they encountered many martial artists coming under the guise of reminiscing.
These martial artists were mostly elders from various sects in Central State, greeting Xiao Ye, but discerning eyes could see that this was probing.
If not for Xiao Ye’s previous display of terrifying strength, easily repelling eight titled Emperor Martial from the Unrivaled Emperor Domain, these guys would have likely made a move.
"No problem. At worst, we’ll fight our way out," Xiao Ye said calmly, making the three take a deep breath.
Xiao Ye’s demeanor has changed greatly, but his approach remains as assertive as ever.
This place was established by the Heavenly Emperor, with even half-step emperor-level combat power present. How will they fight their way out?
"Brother, were you really injured during the Dark Turmoil, with your martial arts foundation damaged? I see you’ve even changed your cultivation technique..."
Xiao Fan hesitated for a moment and asked.
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Zhou and Prince Donghuang immediately became silent, turning their eyes towards him.
"We’ll speak of this later. Xiao Fan, you should first tell me what’s happened to the Wuji Sect these years. Where are father, mother, and Yaya?"
Xiao Ye answered with a question instead.
"The Wuji Sect has become a thing of the past..."
Xiao Fan smiled bitterly upon hearing this, taking a deep breath and narrating slowly.
As it turns out, since Xiao Ye left, the Wuji Sect’s prestige was at its peak, reaching glorious heights, even overpowering the Four Great Emperor Domains, standing out above all.
However, nine years ago, Dark Turmoil erupted, and numerous half-step emperor strong people emerged from the Endless Sea, shattering the situation in Central Province’s Eighteen Domains.
Among the Five Sealed Emperor Strong People, the Dark Emperor occupies the Three Alliances Domain and nearby great domains. The Dark Emperor, from thousands of miles away, targeted the Wuji Mansion.
Fortunately, before departing, Xiao Ye left eight pieces of half-emperor jade scrolls, alongside the half-emperor body, and with Little White’s protection, they barely managed to withstand the strike from the half-emperor, though there were heavy casualties.
The half-emperors under the Dark Emperor descended, resulting in a fierce battle with the Wuji Sect. Most of the titled Emperor Martial brought by Xiao Ye from the Infinite Sect and the titled Emperor Martial from Sealing Emperor City fell, even the half-emperor body was seized, and the entire Wuji Sect was destroyed.
In the end, it was Taiyi Palace Master who came and led the core members of the Wuji Sect away, hiding together with Taiyi Palace in a spatial world.
However, the Dark Emperor did not relent in hunting the Wuji Sect, sending half-emperor strong people to search for them. Xiao Fan, seeking refuge, came to challenge the Ten Great Passes.
"Fortunately, father, mother, and Yaya are all safe."
Though the Iron Blood Emperor had assured him back in the Emperor World that his family would temporarily be safe, hearing this news personally, he finally let out a great sigh of relief.
As for the Wuji Sect’s demise, he remained calm.
The martial arts he now pursues transcends the mundane, reaching extreme brilliance; worldly fame has become ephemeral to him, and he no longer cares for it.
"The Dark Emperor is likely the Ultimate Palace Main Palace Master or the Cang Clan Patriarch..." In Xiao Ye’s deep eyes, a cold gleam flickered.
The martial artists from the Wuji Sect who were slain, and the titled Emperor Martial who followed him from Sealing Emperor City to Central State, their blood cannot be spilled in vain!
"Brother, there’s also good news, you’ve become... a father!" At this moment, Xiao Fan suddenly said with a smile.
Boom!
This statement was like a thunderbolt striking Xiao Ye, causing his body to tremble, his mind in a daze.
He...
Has become a father?
"Six months after the arrival of Dark Turmoil, your wife bore you a son, named Xiao Nian."
"Had it not been for Xiao Nian, I wouldn’t have sought refuge from the Heavenly Emperor, but fortunately, brother, you have returned."
Xiao Fan said with a smile.
"Xiao Nian, does it mean longing?" Xiao Ye’s breath became heavy, an indescribable feeling spread through his body, sparking a yearning to rush to Bing Ya’s side, to see the child he had never met.
Thinking of the fact that his child was born into an era of Dark Turmoil, Xiao Ye felt a wave of fear.
If...
Any misstep could mean his child might no longer exist!
Seeing Xiao Ye’s appearance eliciting laughter from Prince Donghuang and Zhuang Zhou.
As Xiao Ye led the three into the Fourth Pass, suddenly an elderly man with white hair and beard ascended into the air.
"Master Xiao Ye, the road ahead is blocked, do not travel against the flow."
"The Unrivaled Domain Master has just declared that the Ten Great Passes can only move forward, reverse travel is prohibited. Now, the Unrivaled Domain Master has mobilized half-step emperor strong people, entering the First Pass, violators will be eradicated."
"I suspect that the Unrivaled Domain Master is targeting you."
This elderly man was hunched, with a face full of wrinkles, appearing ready for the grave. Once an elder of a third-class sect in Central State, who had previously met Xiao Ye, kind in nature, specifically came to provide a warning.
Shua!
At this moment, cold gleams erupted from Xiao Ye’s eyes.
The Unrivaled Emperor’s son... couldn’t resist anymore, could he?
