Chapter 412: Chapter 327 You Should Be Proud!_2

“`

If that’s the case, then I should first get the Dragon Emperor back to Dragon Island, and then I’ll deal with Li Cheng afterward when he’s inevitably suppressed by his clan.

Listening to the two’s conversation, Li Cheng frowned, “Uncle-Master, you can’t go back with him. The Dragon Emperor Clan will surely take this opportunity to harm you!”

The Dragon Emperor sighed. He knew all too well the consequences of returning. Once back, he would surely be suppressed beneath a Lock Dragon Pillar for countless years. But did he have a choice?

Even a Divine Venerable of his caliber couldn’t control his own fate!

The Dragon Emperor walked through the sky and patted Li Cheng on the shoulder, “Don’t worry, no need to be concerned about me!”

After speaking, the Dragon Emperor waved his hand, and the cage, along with Li Cheng, flew towards Emperor Xuankong, “You will be released after four hours, take care!”

As his voice fell, the Dragon Emperor left with the young man!

Li Cheng slammed his fist against the cage with all his might, but it was a method set by a Divine Venerable, and he had no way to break it.

He could only watch powerlessly as the Dragon Emperor and the Ninth Prince left.

“Ninth Prince, if my Uncle-Master suffers even the slightest harm, one day, I will shatter Dragon Island!” Li Cheng clenched his teeth, his voice low and resolute.

The Ninth Prince wore a face full of contempt and coldly snorted with disdain as he followed the Dragon Emperor.

Emperor Xuankong sighed, pondered for a long while, then finally spoke in consolation, “Rest assured, though the Dragon Emperor went against the Dragon Clan’s wishes and helped the Human Tribe of his own accord, the Dragon Clan wouldn’t mistreat him—they are not so senseless as to harm their own.”

Li Cheng remained silent, his gaze still fixed on the direction in which the two had departed.

Having crossed over from Huaxia, he had always revered the Divine Dragon; after all, it was the totem of Huaxia.

But the appearance of the Ninth Prince significantly diminished his reverence for the Divine Dragon.

If they were truly to harm the Dragon Emperor, then one day, he would indeed shatter Dragon Island!

After a long time, Li Cheng finally suppressed the rage in his heart and gradually calmed down.

He looked around and saw that the Evil Demons were either dead or had fled; the situation here was now completely stable.

“Li Cheng, we’ve received word from Mansion Venerable City that the Evil Demons have fully retreated, seemingly under the intervention of Emperor Level Strong beings!” Emperor Xuankong said.

The Emperor Level Strong he referred to was naturally the Divine Emperors!

Li Cheng asked curiously, “You mean to say, the Divine Emperors on both sides have reached some sort of agreement?”

Emperor Xuankong nodded, “That’s what I think too. For specifics, you might as well ask his Excellency the Mansion Venerable. He will certainly know.”

Divine Emperors rarely intervened in matters below them; it seemed that the conflicts of the past few decades had escalated to the point where Divine Emperors from both sides had to step in.

Li Cheng didn’t know how many Divine Emperors the Human Tribe had, nor who they were, but it seemed the Evil Demons were in a similar situation.

While speaking, the cage dissipated, and Li Cheng regained his freedom.

He looked in the direction the Dragon Emperor had left once more and sighed. The Dragon Emperor had already completed his Divine Venerable Realm cultivation; may he breakthrough to Divine Emperor soon.

If he did, the Dragon Clan would surely not lay a hand on him.

Right now, his return was uncertain, and it was unknown how the Dragon Clan would punish him.

Thinking over this, Li Cheng bowed to Emperor Xuankong, “Your Majesty, I will head back to Mansion Venerable City and take my leave!”

Emperor Xuankong returned the bow, “I will stay here to deal with the aftermath, so I won’t see you off. Take care!”

Li Cheng nodded and left.

On returning to Mansion Venerable City, Li Cheng found his master and Blunt Empty Venerable already enjoying tea on the island.

Seeing Li Cheng, Wu Ya shook his head with a smile, “This isn’t like you. Don’t you prefer to stay indoors? What made you stir up such a commotion this time?”

“Please, Master, no more teasing. Aren’t you returning to the Confucian Sect? The Confucian Sect has a Divine Emperor, right?” Li Cheng approached and asked.

Wu Ya was taken aback, “A Divine Emperor… Though there’s only a fine line between a Divine Emperor and a Divine Venerable, their strength and status are worlds apart. The Confucian Sect does have a Divine Emperor, but I don’t know him!”

Li Cheng looked skeptical, his gaze unabashed.

Wu Ya coughed awkwardly, “What do you want with a Divine Emperor?”

“The Dragon Emperor has been captured by the Ninth Prince and taken back using the Prison Dragon Rope!” Li Cheng explained.

“`

Blunt Empty Venerable took over the conversation, “He has messaged us, there’s no need for you to worry, the Dragon Emperor will be fine.”

Wu Ya chuckled, “So, you thought your master would ask a Divine Emperor level strong person to speak to the Dragon Clan on your behalf? You’re thinking too much. Firstly, your master can’t move such a strong person at the Divine Emperor level, and secondly, the Dragon Emperor indeed won’t have any problems.”

“Rather than hoping for a Divine Emperor level strong person, you might as well look forward to your master stepping into the Divine Emperor’s Realm soon!” Wu Ya added another sentence.

Li Cheng’s eyes lit up, “Master, are you about to step into the Divine Emperor’s Realm?”

“You’re thinking too much. The Divine Emperor’s Realm… it’s uncertain if your master has any hope of reaching it, and when you attain the Complete Divine Venerable Realm, you will naturally understand why,” Wu Ya said with a smile.

“Alright, in any case, don’t worry about it, your master is also preparing to leave,” Wu Ya said again.

Li Cheng frowned, “So soon? Is there no need to rush to the Confucian Sect?”

“If it weren’t for waiting for you to come back, I would have left with them just now. Come on, stop fussing. If there’s nothing else, come find your master at the Confucian Sect later,” Wu Ya said as he finished off the tea in his cup.

All three stood up at once, and Blunt Empty Venerable said, “Brother Wu Ya, take care!”

Wu Ya smiled, nodded, and in the next moment, his figure had vanished from sight.

Li Cheng didn’t know what other matters his master had besides going back to investigate the Nine Brilliance Star Venerable Tripod, but since he couldn’t keep him, he would find his master later!

“Uncle Blunt Empty, how many Divine Emperors do we, the Human Tribe, have?” Li Cheng asked curiously.

Blunt Empty Venerable shook his head, “This, I’m afraid only those who become Divine Emperors will know. Don’t be curious, just concentrate on your cultivation.”

“Today, the Evil Demon retreated, it’s said to be because the Divine Emperors on both sides reached some kind of agreement. What’s that about?” Li Cheng asked again.

On this matter, Blunt Empty Venerable did not keep secrets, explaining, “Since I became Mansion Venerable, such incidents have happened more than once.”

“The greater the involvement of both sides, the sooner a Divine Emperor level existence will appear to interfere. The reasons behind it, I’m afraid, can only be known by Divine Emperors.”

Li Cheng pondered that by doing so, it seemed that the Divine Emperors on both sides did not want to lose too many people and seemed to have the intention to preserve their strength.

Moreover, Divine Emperor level strong individuals had an unspoken agreement not to participate in the struggle between the two sides.

There must be some hidden secrets involved.

But even as a Divine Venerable, one could not participate in it and could not know the reasons behind it.

Seeing Li Cheng lost in thought, Blunt Empty Venerable did not say more and poured a cup of tea for Li Cheng, changing the subject, “Just now, your master and I went into Blunt Empty Residence to have a look.”

Li Cheng came back to his senses and laughed, “That’s good, I’ve always wanted to invite you and master to have a look inside.”

The Blunt Empty Residence was originally Blunt Empty Venerable’s, so there was nothing wrong with going in to take a look, and there were no big secrets inside, after all.

Blunt Empty Venerable also smiled, “Your master mainly wanted to see his grand-disciples. Those two inside pleased him very much.”

“That’s great. In the future, once the disciples from the Kunlun Realm ascend, I’ll take them to meet master. I believe master will be very pleased too!” Li Cheng said.

Yun Tianqiong and the others, each one more exceptional than the last, would surely flourish in the Divine Realm with the advantage of being Ascenders.

“As the saying goes, ‘Like master, like disciple.’ Your disciples are surely extraordinary, and I believe in this,” Blunt Empty Venerable said with a laugh.

Li Cheng gave a wry smile and said, “Uncle, shall we go inside again for another look?”

Blunt Empty Venerable shook his head, “Go ahead. Make sure you remind them to keep the Chaotic Time-Space Lotus a secret. If word gets out, it will alarm Divine Emperor strong individuals. Whether it will bring fortune or disaster then is uncertain.”

Li Cheng, of course, understood this and wouldn’t dare to reveal it.

With a smile, Li Cheng walked into the Blunt Empty Residence.

Next, Li Cheng was ready to study the segment of Divine Wood from the World Tree, as well as the Divine World left by the Divine Emperor within it.

That segment of Divine Wood contained the powers of earth, fire, water, and wind. If possible, it could be used to prepare for constructing his own Divine World.

As for that Divine World, it was filled with a pervasive deathly aura and was not yet relevant.

Inside the Blunt Empty Residence, the disciples were cultivating near the Chaotic Time-Space Lotus. The area around their dwelling was instead quiet and desolate.

Li Cheng wasn’t in a hurry to examine the Divine Wood. He went to the lakefront, took the Divine Artifact level fishing rod, and began fishing.

Today his mind was too troubled. Although he had already calmed down, he still needed some time to reflect.

A few days later, with a calm heart, Li Cheng finally took out that segment of Divine Wood!
