Chapter 118

Inside the restaurant,

many Martial Saint elders poured in, wanting to pay a visit to Chu Long, this Martial Emperor.

But fundamentally,

they wanted to find out about his background.

"I am just a martial artist wandering the world!"

Facing the inquiries,

Chu Long said with an indifferent air.

"Does Senior really not fear the Hell Gate?"

"Hahaha, the Hell Gate? They are nothing more than that. Before breaking through to the Martial Emperor realm, I indeed felt they were too powerful to be provoked, but as you have seen, their so-called Great Perfection powerhouses couldn't even handle me, a Martial Emperor at the early stage!"

"It is we who have been frightened by the Hell Gate's reputation for too long, mistakenly believing they were truly invincible!"

"But in reality, only after breaking through the Martial Emperor realm can one know that the Hell Gate is just a pile of broken bricks and rotten tiles!"

Chu Long shook his folding fan and spoke eloquently.

"Besides, the Hell Gate is now unable to attend to other matters because of the Chu family in the Qian Domain. Isn't this the best time for us to break through to the Martial Emperor realm?"

The eyes of the many visitors lit up.

That's right!

The Qian Domain and the surrounding regions have begun to break away from the Hell Gate's control,

so how could they have any more energy to pay attention to them!

Any news related to the Hell Gate or the Qian Domain Chu family always spreads very quickly,

and the news that someone had quietly broken through to the Martial Emperor realm and killed Hell Gate Martial Emperors swept through the mortal realm like a hurricane.

Almost in an instant,

numerous factions sent scouts to Nine Sacred City to inquire about the reliability of the matter.

"It's true, it's true!"

"Someone has really broken through to the Martial Emperor realm and killed three Hell Gate Martial Emperors in a row!"

This news made many veteran Martial Saints unable to sit still,

and they all began to stir in secret.

But some also noticed that Hell Gate Martial Emperors seemed to be patrolling constantly recently, and many knew the purpose of this very well.

"It seems the Hell Gate really can't control the situation anymore; otherwise, they wouldn't have dispatched Martial Emperors to patrol the mortal realm!"

Such things had never happened before,

because no one dared to challenge their authority.

"Then what should we do?"

"I reckon some people have already started to quietly break through to the Martial Emperor realm. Being left behind is not a good thing!"

"Now is not the best time to break through. There will inevitably be more battles between the Hell Gate and the Chu family. When the next great war breaks out, that will be the time for us to break through to the Martial Emperor realm!"

"The most important thing right now is to prepare for breaking through to the Martial Emperor realm!"

Other factions in the mortal realm had already received the news,

and many people began to stir.

In the Hell Gate,

the great hall was silent.

"Everyone, speak up. Why were our Hell Gate's Great Perfection Martial Emperor powerhouses killed by a Martial Emperor at the early stage and a group of Martial Saints? Could it be that, as the outside world says, our Hell Gate Martial Emperors are all paper tigers?"

The First Sect Master, Wu Fu, spoke with a chilling voice,

looking at the dozen or so Martial Emperors sitting in the hall.

"In my opinion, the opponent definitely used some kind of method!"

"After all, it is not surprising that this land of the mortal realm still retains some forbidden methods from ancient times!"

The Third Sect Master, Min Su, said in a deep voice.

It was just that others were shallow-sighted and unable to discern this,

thinking that a Martial Emperor at the early stage could kill a Martial Emperor at Great Perfection.

"Well said. It must be some forbidden method from the ancient era, but this also shows that someone has been unable to hold back and has broken through to the Martial Emperor realm, and is even inciting other Martial Saints to break through together!"

"This must not be allowed to happen; we must nip this in the bud!"

This is a change that has never happened since ancient times.

If this storm cannot be completely suppressed,

I fear that in the near future, it will truly evolve to a point that will be troublesome for them.

"In the end, everything is because of that Chu family Beast God. If it weren't for him, there wouldn't be so many changes now!"

"He really deserves to die!"

A Martial Emperor scolded angrily.

The Chu family is not scary,

and even the Chu family, which now has Martial Emperors sitting in command, is still not scary,

but the strength of that Beast God of the Chu family makes them deeply wary, so they dare not take action against the territories the Chu family currently occupies, for fear of angering that Beast God.

"He won't be arrogant for much longer!"

"Now that such changes have occurred in the mortal realm, the Sacred Envoy has begun to summon powerhouses from the Sacred Realm. Once they descend, it will be the death date of the Chu family Beast God!"

Wu Fu said in a deep voice.

He glanced at the position where the Seventh Sect Master, Mu Tuo, had originally been,

which was now empty.

His illegitimate son, Xing Qi, had fallen, and the Emperor-tier weapon had also disappeared without a trace,

and he had already rushed to Nine Sacred City with monstrous rage.

"With the Seventh Sect Master's strength, he should be able to salvage some face for our Hell Gate and, incidentally, deter those who are restless!"

However, it is a pity,

or perhaps Mu Tuo was lucky,

that when he arrived at Nine Sacred City filled with rage,

Chu Long and the others had already returned to their family,

otherwise, what awaited him might also have been a dead end!

"Ah! Little thief, evil thief, don't let me know who you are, otherwise, even to the ends of the earth, I will tear you into ten thousand pieces, eat your flesh, and drink your blood to avenge the murder of my son!"

Mu Tuo's white hair danced,

looking like an enraged lion.

He had many illegitimate children,

but Xing Qi was definitely the one with the greatest talent,

and the only one among his offspring to break through to the Martial Emperor realm,

and he had placed high hopes on him,

otherwise he wouldn't have given him his life-bound Emperor-tier weapon, the Chaos Starry Sky Lotus, for self-defense.

But now,

he couldn't even sense where his own Emperor-tier weapon was!

"I will find you, I will definitely find you!"

Mu Tuo's eyes glowed red,

and the pale flames between his brows leaped constantly,

terrifying to the extreme!

Suddenly,

he spat out a mouthful of blood,

and said in horror: "He actually erased the connection between me and the Emperor-tier weapon?"

That was his life-bound spiritual weapon that he had refined for thousands of years!
