Chapter 3428: Feng Jian Yu is Shocked
“Where are two t.i.tled Celestial Emperors?” Meng Luo asked indifferently as he swept his gaze across the members of the Luo River Sect.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian glared at them furiously from Meng Luo’s Little World.
“Lord Meng Luo.”
An old man and a middle-aged man stepped forward. They were two t.i.tled Celestial Emperors from the Luo River Sect: Xu Xiu, the Outstanding Celestial Emperor; Chang Yi, the Surging Wind Celestial Emperor.
Without any warning, a strong destructive energy surged out from Meng Luo and morphed into a giant black monster. Both men’s expressions changed drastically as the giant black monster opened its mouth and devoured them.
When the black energy dissipated, only two Spatial Rings were left. The two t.i.tled Celestial Emperors from the Luo River Sect died in just a blink of an eye. Since they were just ordinary t.i.tled Celestial Emperors, it did not take much for Meng Luo to kill them.
Upon seeing this, the Luo River Sect’s Celestial Emperors kneeled and pleaded for their lives. Chills ran up their spines as they shuddered. Some of them even sent messages to the old man, cursing him for deceiving them. After all, the old man had said Meng Luo would not kill them as long as they came here. Meng Luo had killed the two t.i.tled Celestial Emperors so easily; it would be even easier for him to kill them. Although they had heard much about Meng Luo’s strength in the past, it was nothing compared to watching him in action.
“L-lord Meng Luo!”
“Lord Meng Luo, please have mercy. We’re only following orders!”
“Lord Meng Luo, please have mercy!”
Meng Luo looked at the kneeling Celestial Emperors and asked tonelessly, m”Do you know why I am here?”
Silence descended on the group of Celestial Emperors. The first thought that came to their minds was that the pair of the Celestial Emperors must have sought help from Meng Luo. Moreover, those two must have a good relations.h.i.+p with Meng Luo for Meng Luo to personally make a move. If they survived, they swore never to return to the Saint Province Realm unless the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven could subdue Meng Luo and stop him from intervening.
Finally, someone managed to muster up their courage and said, “Lord Meng Luo. We’re here by the orders of the Luo River Sect’s Saint Girl. We’ve been told by the Saint Girl that the order came directly from the Sect Leader of the Luo River Sect. Lord Meng Luo, you should know that our sect leader is also the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven…”
The man naively thought that Meng Luo would be intimidated if he mentioned the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Sect.
“The Heavenly Emperor of the River Luo Heaven?” Meng Luo stared at the man coldly. “Do you think I’d be intimidated just because you mentioned the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven?”
The man’s expression changed drastically upon hearing Meng Luo’s words. His forehead broke out in cold sweat that trickled down from his temples.
“Certainly not, Lord Meng Luo! T-that’s not my intention!”
Seeing that the Celestial Emperors were all kneeling with their heads lowered, too afraid to speak, Meng Luo said, “I came after I received news that the Luo River Sect intends to annihilate the Saint Province Realm… Do you know why I intervened in this matter?” He looked at the Celestial Emperors meaningfully before he said, “It’s because our Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven hailed from the Saint Province Island; he’s very fond of this place…”
The trembling Celestial Emperor stiffened immediately upon hearing Meng Luo’s words; their minds turned blank. The Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven hailed from the Saint Province Realm, and he was very fond of the Saint Province Realm? Gooseb.u.mps erupted on their skin when they regained their senses; fear surged in their hearts when they recalled they had ma.s.sacred the inhabitants of the Saint Province Realm where the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven hailed from.
“I’ll spare one of you so you can return to the Luo River Heaven to report this matter. As for the others, don’t even think of escaping. You’ll only fail…” Meng Luo said frostily.
The Celestial Emperors’ expressions changed again. They froze for a moment as they exchanged a look among themselves. Without any warning, all of them began to attack each other.
In the beginning, many of the Celestial Emperors joined forces to kill the three strongest Celestial Emperors among them. Following that, all of them turned on each other, attacking and killing, before only one of them, who was severely injured, was left. Despite his injuries, he was relieved and overjoyed.
The man looked at Meng Luo nervously as he asked, “L-lord Meng Luo… C-can I leave now?”
“Leave,” Meng Luo said nonchalantly “Remember to report this to your Heavenly Emperor.”
“Thank you, Lord Meng Luo.” The man felt as though a heavy weight had been lifted off his shoulders after he heard Meng Luo’s words.
After the man left, Duan Ling Tian finally emerged from Meng Luo’s Little World with an unsightly expression on his face.
“Young Master, we’ll have to wait for our Lord Heavenly Emperor’s return to decide our next step. However, after my intervention, I’m sure the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Sect won’t return to the Saint Province Realm,” Meng Luo said to Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian nodded before he said, “Senior Meng Luo, you may leave now if you want… I want to wander the Saint Province Realm.”
“Young Master, since there’s nothing important I have to attend to, I’ll accompany you. I’d like to see the place where our Lord Heavenly Emperor came from…” Meng Luo said with a smile on his face. Contrary to his words, the real reason he decided to stay was to ensure Duan Ling Tian’s safety. After all, he had learned that the ma.s.sacre in the Saint Province Realm was caused by Duan Ling Tian killing the soul of the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven’s daughter. He did not dare to let his guard down. What if the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Sect lost her mind due to grief and came to the Saint Province Realm? Duan Ling Tian would be in danger if he were absent at that time.
Duan Ling Tian did not dissuade Meng Luo. He flew in the direction of the Ten Great Dynasty.
‘Since the members of the Luo River Sect were here when we arrived, they probably hadn’t finished killing all the inhabitants of the Saint Province Realm. The Ten Great Dynasty is rather remote so they probably hadn’t gone there yet,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. He knew was just trying to rea.s.sure himself. After all, he knew very well that traversing the entire Saint Province Realm was nothing to a Celestial Emperor. Even the strongest person in the mundane realm was like an ant in front of a Celestial Emperor.
‘Please let everyone be okay…’
Although most of the people Duan Ling Tian cared about had left the Saint Province Realm or pa.s.sed away, their descendants remained. He, naturally, did not wish any harm to come to them.
…
Meanwhile, the only surviving Celestial Emperor, a middle-aged man dressed in a long green robe with a jade-like complexion, from the group that was sent to the Saint Province Realm finally arrived at the Luo River Sect. If it were up to him, he would not return to the Luo River Sect. However, he could forsake his family and friends who were still in the Luo River Sect.
“Lord Saint Girl!” the man called out anxiously with a fearful expression on his face.
“What’s going on?”
The Saint Girl of the Luo River Sect was Feng Jian Yu. She was the biological daughter of Situ Zhuqing, the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven. When she heard the middle-aged man’s voice and expression, she knew something was amiss.
“Lord Saint Girl, except for me, everyone who was sent to the Saint Province Realm, including Lord Chang Yi and Lord Xu Xiu, is dead.” the middle-aged said with his head lowered. His body could not stop trembling as he reported the matter to Feng Jian Yu.
“What?!” Feng Jian Yu’s expression changed dramatically. “How’s that possible?! Out of a group of Celestial Emperors and two t.i.tled Celestial Emperors, only one survived in the mundane realm? Speak! What happened?!”
Feng Jian Yu’s expression darkened. She did not expect all men she sent to the Saint Province Realm, except one, had died. How could anyone in the mundane realm contend with a Celestial Emperor, let alone a group of Celestial Emperors and two t.i.tled Celestial Emperors?
“Lord Saint Girl, it’s the Heavenly Savage Celestial Emperor, Meng Luo. He came to the Saint Province Realm and intervened…” The middle-aged man conveyed Meng Luo’s words to Feng Jian Yu following that.
“The Heavenly Savage Celestial Emperor, Meng Luo, intervened because their Heavenly Emperor, Feng Qing Yang, hails from the Saint Province Realm and is fond of that place?” Feng Jian Yu was stunned. She knew Meng Luo had deliberately spared the middle-aged man. Otherwise, the middle-aged man would not have survived. Let alone the middle-aged, even she was no match for Meng Luo after all. She really did not expect Feng Qing Yang to have come from the Saint Province Realm.
