Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 542 - 539: Moon God Palace!
Chapter 542: Chapter 539: Moon God Palace!
Huaxia’s Immortal Master Li, here to pay respects to the sect!
For Zhao Yuqing, these nine words were sweeter than any love talk in the world.
"It’s him, he’s come to save me!"
Seeing Zhao Yuqing ecstatic, a flash of jealousy sparked in Miyamoto Musashi’s murky eyes.
"Immortal Master Li from Huaxia, he’s your little lover, isn’t he? I’ve heard of his deeds, a rare talent unmatched in his generation. Given another twenty years to grow, I’m afraid no one in this world would be his match. It’s just a pity..."
At this point, Miyamoto Musashi’s squinted eyes suddenly opened wide, shooting out a soul-piercing sharp glint.
"What a pity, he shouldn’t have, under any circumstances, trespassed into the Iga Palace!"
After saying this, Miyamoto Musashi waved his hand towards his subordinates and commanded, "Someone come, watch her. This old man is going out to meet that guest from Huaxia!"
"Yes, Sect Leader!"
Several elite disciples stepped forward and respectfully saluted.
Miyamoto Musashi had only left for a moment when the doors of the Underground Palace suddenly opened once more.
The disciples tasked with staying behind, thinking it was the old Sect Leader returning, hurriedly went forward to greet him.
However, the figures that entered their vision were not Miyamoto Musashi, but two beautiful and graceful women.
"Master, it’s so hot in here!"
The girl named Shui Yue fanned herself from the heat, casually complaining.
The elite disciples, seeing people barging in, all drew their weapons, shouting fiercely.
"Who are you, and why have you trespassed into the Iga Palace?"
The older woman didn’t reply to them but simply pointed at Zhao Yuqing and said, "Her, we from the Moon God Palace will take. Whoever dares to stop us, dies!"
Those who guarded the Underground Palace were elite disciples of the Iga Palace, also the confidants of Miyamoto Musashi, and occasionally fortunate enough to receive some guidance from the Old Sword Master.
Thus, each of them possessed significant martial prowess. Among these ten individuals, there were actually three Transformation Realm Masters, and the remaining seven were also experts at the Half-step Innate level.
"What audacity, intruders of the Underground Palace, kill!"
The disciple with the highest cultivation level shouted urgently and drew his sword to strike.
"Seeking death!"
The older woman uttered coldly, her snowy white fingertips casually pointing, piercing through the throat of the Transformation Realm Master.
"Master, let me handle the remaining few ants!"
Without waiting for her master to respond, the girl Shui Yue’s figure darted forward like a specter.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Immediately, one could see her effortlessly swinging three sword strikes as if slicing through vegetables.
"Pfft!"
"Pfft!"
"Pfft!"
...
The remaining nine elite disciples didn’t even have the chance to resist before they successively fell into pools of blood.
Before their deaths, their pupils dilated instantly, their faces filled with disbelief.
Even Zhao Yuqing’s face showed an incredulous expression upon witnessing this scene.
Three Transformation Realm Masters and nine Half-step Innate experts, if it were her, perhaps she could have defeated them one by one in a guerrilla fight. But facing them head-on would mean certain death.
But the girl in front of her, who looked several years younger than herself and resembled a high school student, was able to slay them effortlessly, almost without lifting a finger. This was simply beyond her imagination.
Even Li Chen at her age, probably wasn’t this formidable, right?
Zhao Yuqing saw the girl walking towards her and asked in alarm, "Who are you people?"
Shui Yue chuckled, "Miss, don’t be afraid. We are from the Moon God Palace, here to rescue you. My name is Shui Yue!"
Having said that, she turned back and pointed to an older woman behind her, adding, "She’s my master, Jing Yi Immortal!"
Zhao Yuqing was taken aback when she heard this. She was knowledgeable and well-read, but she had never heard of a sect called Moon God Palace?
After a brief hesitation, Zhao Yuqing voiced the second doubt in her mind.
"Why would you want to save me?"
Shui Yue blinked and thought for a moment before replying, "To be precise, you have the Immortal Spirit Root. My master wishes to take you back to the Moon God Palace and accept you as a disciple!"
After speaking, she turned her head towards the woman behind her and called out, "Master, am I right?"
The woman known as Jing Yi Immortal didn’t reply but merely nodded slightly, as if confirming Shui Yue’s words.
When Zhao Yuqing understood their intentions, she shook her head vigorously and said, "I won’t go with you, nor do I need your rescue. Someone is already coming to save me!"
"Someone? You mean that guy above from Huaxia, called Immortal Master Li? I don’t think he can save you!"
Shui Yue, with her big sparkling eyes, pointed towards the upper part of the Underground Palace with a giggly expression.
Zhao Yuqing’s heart skipped a beat as she urgently asked, "Why not?"
Shui Yue shrugged her shoulders and said, "It’s quite simple actually. He has not achieved Foundation Establishment; at most, he’s only at the brink of preliminary Foundation Establishment, roughly at the same level as me. That old fellow just now, however, was at the peak of Mid-stage Foundation Establishment. Anyone with eyes can see that the young man can’t defeat the old one, right?"
"By the way, Miss, you don’t have a vision problem, right? But don’t worry, our Moon God Palace has special Spiritual Medicine for treating eye problems. Even a real blind person could regain their sight!"
The girl, Shui Yue, blabbered on and on, but Zhao Yuqing only registered one thing: Li Chen cannot beat the old guy!
"No, no, that’s impossible. He is invincible in the Human World; how could he possibly lose?"
Jing Yi Immortal, who had been silent all this while, suddenly let out a cold laugh.
"Hehe, little girl, you are truly a frog at the bottom of a well. But it’s not your fault; it’s the impure Qi of the mortal world that clouds your vision. Come back with me to the Moon God Palace. After purifying for three to five years, you will naturally see clearly!"
Having said that, she gave Shui Yue a signal with her eyes and commanded in an undeniable tone, "Shui Yue, take her away!"
Meanwhile:
Li Chen was already locked in combat with many Elders, Deacons, and Disciples of the Iga Palace.
His sword danced in the air, and with each strike, he harvested a head. Except for a few Elders in the Demigod Realm and Miyamoto Sakura in the Quasi-God Realm, no one else, not even those in the Late Transformation Realm, could withstand a single blow from him.
Seeing their old friends and diligently trained disciples fall one by one before their eyes, the hearts of some Elders bled.
"Princess, this man must have reached the Proving God Realm, we are no match for him. We should ask the old Sect Leader to come forth!"
Miyamoto Sakura’s mother was a Royal Princess. Although she no longer bore the royal surname, she was still conferred the title of princess by the Emperor. Moreover, her status was in no way inferior to that of a direct Royal Princess of the Royal Family.
Therefore, many in the Iga Palace were still accustomed to addressing her as Princess.
Not only was Miyamoto Sakura the granddaughter of the Old Sword Master, Miyamoto Musashi, and a princess of the Royal Family, but she was also the chosen Heavenly Pride Girl with unparalleled martial arts talent in the present age.
Before this, she believed that on this planet beneath her feet, there were none who could surpass her in terms of martial prowess.
However, she had never expected to be so easily defeated by this young man from Hua Country known as Immortal Master Li.
Li Chen’s emergence had turned her understanding of the word "genius" upside down.
As Miyamoto Sakura’s thoughts raced, a furious roar suddenly came from the direction of the Underground Palace.
Immediately after, a black hurricane swept in.
"Immortal Master Li, you intruded into our grand palace, destroyed our mountain gate, and killed our disciples. If I don’t slay you today, I swear I am not a human!"
