Eternal Holy Emperor-Chapter 1313 - 1176: The Human Emperor Halts the War!
"If in the future you meet the inheritor of the Combat Saint lineage, unless they are extremely wicked, you must make friends with the inheritor, treat them as an honored guest of the Qin Family, and assist them when necessary without any refusal."
"This is the ancestral command left for the Qin Family, and must never be disobeyed for generations."
Upon the declaration of the Wuxiang King’s command, the expressions of the Qin Family’s powerful figures turned extremely grim.
They looked at the Combat Saint King with exceedingly complex expressions.
It must be known that not long ago, the Qin Family’s Great Powers launched a real battle, aiming to join forces with Ying Gu, Slaughter Venerable, and several ancient Great Powers to kill the Combat Saint King. Although the situation was reversed later, this scene still left people dumbfounded.
Previously they were engaged in a life-and-death struggle, wreaking havoc with blood flying everywhere, and now they are required to befriend the Combat Saint King, treat him as an honored guest, and even assist him when necessary, without disobedience.
Such a drastic contrast left many people astonished.
Especially the Great Powers of the Heavenly Realms, who looked on mockingly at Qin Ye, whose face alternated between ashen and pale.
The Qin Family never expected that the Combat Saint King they intended to kill would become an important figure the Qin Family’s ancestor commanded them to honor as a guest.
Qin Ye wanted to speak of the Combat Saint King’s misdeeds, but opened his mouth and found himself unable to utter a word.
The Wuxiang King mentioned, unless they are extremely wicked, but is the Combat Saint King such a person?
Even the Qin Family does not believe that the Combat Saint King is such a person. On the contrary, he is only very strong and domineering; he intervened mainly because Qin Yi and War King were in love, which only brought a huge scandal to the Qin Family leading them to act in outrage.
But this doesn’t nearly qualify as extremely wicked; rather, it speaks of loyalty and commitment, willing to go to any lengths for War King.
But to shift from a life-and-death battlefield to having to befriend and treat him as a guest is such a huge change, and truly difficult for them.
Now it is very awkward, very embarrassing, not knowing how to face this situation.
Among them, the Great Power Ying Gu of the Ying Imperial Clan, and the other two ancient Great Powers, were particularly infuriated, glancing at Qin Ye, wanting them not to heed the command and continue to fight since the Combat Saint King was their common great enemy.
But though the Warrior God was not truly the Wuxiang King, his status was equally high for the Qin Family, akin to how the Emperor’s Divine Weapon was revered by the Ying Clan.
Moreover, facing the Warrior God, they dared not speak rashly, for angering the Warrior God could result in annihilation with merely a flick of a finger.
Qin Ye and they truly had no choice but to comply, albeit with embarrassment in the face of the Combat Saint King, finding it difficult to continue facing him.
The Combat Saint King’s party looked mockingly at the powerful figures of the Qin Family, especially Ye Chen, who bizarrely watched from the side, rubbing his chin.
Not far away, the War King laughed heartily and Qin Yi by his side was full of joy.
Little Wushuang happily embraced Yiyi: "Uncle Qian is amazing."
Only the powerful figures of the Ying Imperial Clan appeared exceedingly embarrassed, especially Ying Chen.
The Warrior God looked sternly at the Qin Family’s powerful figures, bearing supreme authority, saying, "As descendants of the Qin Family, you must remember the ancestor’s command. Though I have always been asleep, I accompanied you for a time during my slumber, sensing this young friend’s Blood Qi, and knowing he is not a wicked person."
"This—"
Qin Ye and the leading powerful figures of the Qin Family opened their mouths, not knowing how to respond.
But the Warrior God firmly watched them, making each of their scalps tingle, their blood seeming to hum, involuntarily awed, not daring to resist.
In the end, Qin Ye, being a Great Power, stepped forward, gazing complexly at Ye Chen not far away, clasped his fist, and said: "I apologize, Combat Saint King, for the earlier offense, please forgive us."
Led by the Great Power, other Qin Family members came forward to apologize, causing many to have complex expressions.
Ying Gu and the other three ancient Great Powers felt similarly ashamed, but looking at the Warrior God, they felt helpless.
The Qin Family’s reluctant surrender further skewed the balance in this Great Power-level chaotic battle.
Now, Ye Chen’s side had six Great Power-level existences eyeing them covetously, looking mockingly at Ying Gu and the three other ancient Great Powers, dramatically changing their expressions.
The number of Great Power-level existences on both sides had now fallen to three versus six, a stark disparity, with little suspense if a battle ensued.
"Enough!"
At this moment, an ancient figure from the other side of the Starry Sky Rift stepped forward, body surrounded by a vague radiance, surprisingly crossing the Starry Sky Rift cut open by the Heavenly Gate Master to reach the Starry Sky Battlefield, bearing an inscrutable Qi Mechanism.
He first clasped his fist towards the Warrior God, then nodded towards the mysterious Heavenly Gate Master, looking at the opposing parties, slowly speaking: "This farce should conclude here, you should all stop."
Did the ancient figure come to stop the fight?
This surprised all the Great Powers.
"Give me a reason!"
Ye Chen also sensed the fearsome aura of the newcomer, from the Combat Saint’s keen intuition, understanding this was an unfathomable ancient figure, very aged, with even withered Blood Qi, in life’s twilight, having few years left, yet giving Ye Chen an incomparably terrifying feeling.
It seemed as if within that extremely aged body, slumbered a Supreme Evil, once awakened, it would be terrifying to the extreme, capable of destroying the Heavens.
This made him extremely apprehensive, for not even other Ancient Great Powers had ever given him such a feeling.
Ancient Monarch!?
Yet, at this moment he felt fearless, and he was assertive, because of the Warrior God, he believed this old man couldn’t deal with the Warrior God.
Everyone else slightly changed their expression, shaking their heads at the Combat Saint King’s actions, the Taichu Great Power even transmitted a message, advising Ye Chen to be courteous; the other party was an extremely terrifying entity who had competed with the Human Emperor in the past for the throne, narrowly losing by one move, a peerless force.
Ye Chen was awe-struck; this ancient relic had such an illustrious background.
The old relic chuckled softly, his eyes narrowing without anger, and nodded at Ye Chen: "You are the Combat Saint King, are you not? A very promising young talent full of potential, eligible to contend for the throne of Human Emperor in this lifetime, and perhaps even stand a chance at the opportunity to become the Supreme Emperor of this epoch."
All the Heavenly Great Abilities were astonished, not expecting the old relic to hold such a high evaluation of the Combat Saint King, which was beyond many people’s expectations.
"Thank you for your praise." Ye Chen clasped his fists, neither mistakenly proud nor compromising, yet becoming more wary.
The old relic sighed lightly, saying: "I expected the strong-willed inheritor of the Combat Saint Lineage wouldn’t easily compromise, so here, I have this."
Boom——
With a flick of his sleeve, he unleashed a beam of Divine Light, then immeasurable radiance covered the sky and earth, accompanied by an Emperor’s Heavenly Might comparable to the Warrior God, sweeping over the vast Cangyu, causing everyone to bow.
Upon truly seeing it, it was a Supreme Decree, imbued with Emperor’s Might, the Emperor’s Decree appeared with Divine Light, cutting through the starry sky, separating both factions.
Within, a voice bearing supreme majesty issued forth, "Cease the fighting!"
This was the Human Emperor’s words, unmatched in authority, insurmountable.
And it imposed an arrival of Supreme Principles upon both factions, making it difficult for them to act, feeling alarmed.
Spoken Word Follows!
This was the Human Emperor’s might, as the Sovereign of Ten Thousand Domains, possessing the highest and most supreme Daoist Law strength, just like Saints within the Plane World, similarly as such.
Yet within the vast universe of Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, only the Supreme Human Emperor possesses such supreme power; otherwise, even Kings would be incapable of achieving it.
Ye Chen sighed lightly, the Human Emperor ceased the battle, even with the Warrior God as support, he dared not resist, left with no choice but to comply.
Ultimately, a Great Power Level melee came to an end, yet everyone knew the Combat Saint King’s side triumphed completely, leaving the other side in defeat.
One fled with a shattered Divine Soul, another stopped due to ancestral rites, while three others narrowly escaped because of the Human Emperor’s ceasefire.
News spread, the name of Combat Saint King grew more illustrious and splendid, surpassing any previous occasion, becoming more awe-inspiring among the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms.
Except the Warrior God did not immediately descend into slumber, instead nodding at the Emperor’s Decree.
From the Emperor’s Decree surged forth a majestic, hazy figure, demanding reverence from all Heavenly and Ten Thousand Paths, supreme and peerless, likewise nodding to the Warrior God before dissipating, departing with the decree.
At this moment, the Warrior God looked towards Ye Chen, with just a glance, Ye Chen’s inner space blossomed, a stone coffin dropped into the starry sky, lying across, ancient and unassuming.
"This is——"
Many Great Powers were astonished, but those Ten Thousand Domains Great Powers who had participated in the Ancient Emperor Realm war instantly changed their expressions, immediately steering clear as if avoiding great calamity.
"The Lord’s remains!" The Warrior God spoke, instantly causing the Qin Family’s mighty to kneel down, filled with excitement.
After the mythic battle, the Wuxiang King fell, yet the body wasn’t left behind, a great regret for the Qin Family, unable to bury the ancestor.
Now unexpectedly witnessing the ancestral Divine Stone Coffin, they couldn’t help but feel exhilarated.
"Ancestor!"
The Qin Family’s mighty were excited, persistently kneeling and worshiping, filled with enthusiasm and declaring: "Unexpectedly, today we get to see the ancestral stone coffin; it is hoping for me to bring it back to the family ancestor altar for worship."
Ye Chen’s expression was complex, wanting to stop it, to keep it by his side, because it was his ultimate weapon to deter the Emperor Clan, the true reason he dared to challenge the Emperor Clan; if taken away, he’d lack the same deterrence.
However, this was the Qin Family’s ancestor, morally and reasonably impossible.
Moreover, it was also the second generation of the Combat Saint Lineage, his predecessor, he too wished for the Wuxiang King to receive a proper burial.
Yet the Warrior God shook his head, saying: "Continue to keep it with him."
"Why?"
Everyone was perplexed, shouldn’t it be brought back to the Qin Family for proper burial?
"I suspect, the lord has not truly fallen, keeping it by this young friend’s side might offer a sliver of hope for resurrection in the future." The Warrior God spoke.
Boom——
It was like a bolt from the blue, shocking the cosmos!
