Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 641 - 618 Followers (1/3)

Lian Jingxiang looked astonished as she realized that Zhou Heng was actually the Moonlight Emperor!

To think that it had been only half a year since she first met Zhou Heng, and he had managed to advance from Moonlight Sovereign to Moonlight Emperor. Truly impressive!

However, she wasn’t too surprised because Zhou Heng had already been an Eleven Wheels Moonlight Sovereign, possessing the qualifications to ascend to Moonlight Emperor at any time. Still, achieving this breakthrough in just half a year was indeed stunning!

After walking a considerable distance, she frowned slightly and said, "That person just now must be Chi Ming from the Crimson Scorpion Clan!"

"A Sublimation Realm family?" Zhou Heng asked.

"Exactly, the Crimson Scorpion Clan is a family from North Si City, and they have an Old Ancestor who is a Sublimation King. They are not to be underestimated!" Lian Jingxiang said solemnly.

"Zhou, should we make ourselves scarce?" Black Donkey suggested, ready to retreat. Without the female demon Huo Tian to keep order, it felt unsure.

"Don’t worry too much. This is Qi Family territory. As long as we stay here, no one would dare to lay a hand on us!" Lian Jingxiang said with a smile.

"What if they ambush us on the way?" Black Donkey was still worried.

"And you were still provoking people just now?" Zhou Heng laughed.

"Hehe, that’s just a habit!" Black Donkey said, touching its head, unabashed.

The two of them and the donkey entered a huge cabin. There were no private rooms here, just tables laid out one after another. This setup was actually quite good as it facilitated communication. One could eat while overhearing the chatter of others and learn about recent major events.

At least two hundred tables were set up in the large cabin, each occupied by guests. The arrival of Zhou Heng and Lian Jingxiang didn’t attract much attention, but Black Donkey, standing upright and flamboyantly dressed in a floral skirt, drew lots of stares.

The waiter led them to the only vacant table because they had already ordered the food, which started arriving in a continuous stream as soon as they sat down.

Black Donkey couldn’t use chopsticks and simply absorbed the food directly from the air, eating messily.

The food here was really good, not lacking in some precious meats and medicinal treasures that could improve one’s cultivation, such as "Mustard Orchid" and "Ice Snow Lotus Seeds," which could even aid in enlightenment, somewhat justifying the exorbitant prices.

"Brother Zhou, I haven’t congratulated you on entering the realm of the Moonlight Emperor yet!" Lian Jingxiang raised her glass, "Here’s to you!" freewebnøvel.coɱ

Zhou Heng smiled and replied, "It’s just a minor breakthrough, hardly worth mentioning!"

As a descendant of a Sublimation Realm family, Lian Jingxiang could have advanced to Moonlight Emperor two or three hundred years ago. However, she chose to suppress her cultivation to accumulate potential, hoping to form an Eight-Wheel or even a Nine-Wheel Moon in one go.

Only recently had she grasped a sliver of opportunity to potentially form an Eight-Wheel Moon.

People’s comparison can be infuriating, Zhou Heng was younger, yet he had already attained Eleven Wheels Moon! If she had the same aptitude, wouldn’t she have advanced to Moonlight Emperor long ago?

—If she knew that even Black Donkey had already become an Eight-Wheel Moonlight Sovereign, she would be even more furious!

She still spared no effort in persuading Zhou Heng to join the Lian Family, speaking eloquently without pause, but Zhou Heng had no intention of joining any family and kept a tight lip, undeterred by her beauty.

It was a matter of principle.

Lian Jingxiang was a clever woman. Seeing that Zhou Heng had no interest in joining the Lian Family, she didn’t insist further, lest she alienate him. She shifted to discussing her experiences in several adventures she had participated in before, which could serve as useful references.

An hour later, the Scorpion-tailed Man and his three companions also entered. Unfortunately, they sat at the table next to them.

"Hmph!" The Scorpion-tailed Man immediately gave Zhou Heng a cold glance. He obviously wasn’t a man of great magnanimity and had already taken a disliking to Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng didn’t care. Since they couldn’t start a fight here, he was even less concerned. Otherwise, regardless of whether you were a Sublimation King or not, he would start by beating up the minor ones and then use the Fire Divine Furnace to subdue the major ones to see who else dared to provoke him!

"This time, Yuwen Sword’s legacy has appeared, and it has even startled the higher-ups!" one of the men with an elephant nose said. He didn’t use chopsticks either and simply used his long trunk to suck up a large bite of food.

After chewing for a while, he pointed upwards with his right index finger.

"What’s the use? The Big Shots have already said this time’s restriction has only opened slightly, allowing only the Sunshine King to enter at most. If those above had the ability, they would have directly removed the restriction and taken the legacy already. Yuwen Sword was once renowned worldwide with his Dragon Transformation Nine Slashes during the Creation King era, even slaying the Creation Emperor. Who wouldn’t covet such a taboo Immortal Technique?" the Scorpion-tailed Man said coldly.

"Chi Ming, don’t speak recklessly!" another among them warned. He didn’t have any additional tails or an elephant nose but his face was covered in golden fur, resembling a monkey more than anything else.

He seemed to be the leader of the four, and with his sharp reprimand, both the elephant-nosed man and the scorpion-tailed man instantly silenced, obediently closing their mouths.

"That’s Yuan Huo from the Golden Ape Clan!" Lian Jingxiang transmitted her Divine Sense to Zhou Heng, not wanting the four to know they were being discussed, "And the man from the Elephant Clan, that should be the famously distinguished Pang Jun from a few hundred years ago."

"That last man—" she spoke, while Zhou Heng’s gaze also shifted to the last one among the four. That was a tiger-faced man, obviously from the Tiger Clan, with extraordinarily large eyes exuding an intensely fierce aura.

"He should be the genius Hu Xiaoyang from the Copper Tiger Clan," Lian Jingxiang said.

"I hear there are quite a few geniuses this time!" After a while, the tiger-faced man resumed the conversation.

"One Sword Breaks the Heavens Wu Qi, Tian Gangyue Du Hansheng, Thorn Blood Rose Hu Mei, and..." the Elephant-nosed Man counted on his fingers, "...Little Overlord Zhou Tong!"

"I heard Zhou Tong is the descendant of the Eternal Evil Venerate who caused a huge commotion in Juexian City tens of thousands of years ago, possessing an invincible form!"

"That Zhou Tong indeed is very strong, it is said that he’s not yet a thousand years old, but has already become the Sunshine Sovereign, with a glorious record of defeating Two Wheels Sunshine Emperors, truly not to be underestimated!"

"However, in front of the master, any genius will fade into insignificance!"

When they mentioned "master", a fervent fervor simultaneously ignited in their eyes as if they were seeing a deity appear before them.

Zhou Heng and Lian Jingxiang exchanged glances, both revealing a trace of shock.

The absolute strength of these four wasn’t too high, but each of them was a talented youth from a major clan, all possessing infinite potential for development, and definitely had the potential to advance to the Sublimation Realm in the future!

Such talents should be unruly and stubborn, yet these four were willingly devoted to someone else, treating them as if they were a deity to worship! How monstrous must that "master" be to win the absolute devotion of four geniuses?

Zhou Heng merely thought about it briefly then swept past it; he had an invincible heart, and even if he was not yet a match for the "master" mentioned by those four, it didn’t matter, for how many years had he cultivated?

Given a hundred years, he might already become the Creation Emperor, and who could compare with such a rate of advancement?

What truly moved him, however, was the previously mentioned Zhou Tong!

That very likely was the heir of the Great Eternal Emperor!

Little Overlord Zhou Tong... what earth-shattering deeds had that fellow accomplished to be bestowed with the title of the Little Overlord?

Zhou Heng suddenly felt an urgent impulse to meet the person face to face.

"What a boast!" At a table nearby where a group of eight was sitting, someone let out a cold laugh.

"Are you not convinced?" the Scorpion-tailed Man glanced over with a look full of disdain.

"Ignorant fools, mere children not yet weaned off the milk daring to judge Lord Wu Qi!" the people at that table all snorted coldly.

"Looking for death!" the Scorpion-tailed Man, who had the most fiery temper, immediately slammed the table and stood up.

"Chi Ming, don’t start a fight here!" Monkey-haired Face said softly.

The Scorpion-tailed Man did not immediately sit down, but instead challenged the eight at the next table, saying, "Dare you fight outside?"

"Afraid you’re not up to it!" the eight also pushed their table and stood up.

Each was a genius in their own right, proud and self-confident. Even though they had become followers of even greater geniuses, it didn’t mean that their arrogance had dissipated.

The people on both sides left the star ship, hovering in the vast starry sky.

Zhou Heng and Lian Jingxiang also had nearly finished eating, so they settled the bill and left. But as they were exiting the cabin, the people from both sides had already begun fighting, with many onlookers surrounding them.

It was now the Scorpion-tailed Man in a fierce battle with a youth sporting green hair, their initial probing had passed, and they began to fight intensely.

"I recognize that green-haired man, he’s Zhao Fanlu from Ancient Distant City!"

"Exactly, that’s the guy! He’s purportedly a Moonlight Emperor with Eight Wheels Moon, incredibly powerful!"

"Unexpectedly, he has become Wu Qi’s follower!"

"One Sword Breaks the Heavens Wu Qi, Cold Frost Young Master Ke En, these two are once-in-tens-of-thousands-years kind of supreme geniuses, not only sweeping over their contemporaries but also stepping over the older generation of talents!"

"Their brilliance is exceptional, as are their followers, who are equally peerless!"

"This is a rare battle of geniuses!"

In this grand battle, it’s not just a competition for personal honor, but also concerns the people they follow.

"Bring out all your strength!" Zhao Fanlu shouted.

"Hahaha, if I exert all my strength, could you even withstand three moves?" the Scorpion-tailed Man said arrogantly.

"Boasting is meaningless!" Zhao Fanlu retorted angrily, with the Eight Wheels Moon rising behind him, he unleashed his full strength.

"Such a feeble posture with just an Eight Wheels Moon!" The Scorpion-tailed Man laughed out loud, completely disregarding the Moonlight Emperor of the Eight Wheels Moon; his fists condensed, his attacks became even more aggressive, grey shadows flickering around him as he overpowered Zhao Fanlu, displaying an invincible form.

Yet he was still just a follower of someone else, which was unimaginably telling of how immensely powerful Cold Frost Young Master Ke En must be!

"One is not enough, you few come at me together!" the Scorpion-tailed Man, having completely gained the upper hand, was suppressing Zhao Fanlu and simultaneously called out to the remaining seven people to join the fight.
