Chapter 39: Reunion Across Three Thousand Years!

Three thousand years after the ancestral land Blue Star, humanity continues to thrive in this place of the Ancient East.

For thousands of years, towering, mottled cities have stood.

At this moment, within Gusu Ancient City, the Divine Clan and demonic beasts run rampant everywhere.

Broken walls and ruins, corpses litter the ground.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what good luck—coming here I actually encountered a reincarnated Human Emperor."

Above the firmament, the auras of countless Divine Clan powerhouses run deep.

Leading them is a creature with six pairs of translucent wings on its back, a protruding boar-like face, and a twisted mouthpart.

That is the Divine Sovereign, immensely powerful; it is said that he once intercepted an Emperor attempting to cross the Void in the Void itself.

Before him stands a girl holding a willow branch, her skin like jade, a vermilion dot on her brow.

Although she still has some baby fat on her cheeks, her aura makes one tremble.

"People of the Divine Clan, you have overstepped your bounds!"

The girl's face darkens; she is the reborn South Sea Emperor, who once entered meditation upon the Ancient Starry Road.

The number of Divine Clan powerhouses slain by her hand is countless.

In this lifetime, seeing many heavenly talents of the human race born, she knows the fortune of humanity has arrived.

All she must do is protect these humans' hopes, letting those talents not inferior to her own swiftly grow.

To this end, she departs from the South Sea, escorting many human children toward the Human Emperor's Pass.

Unfortunately, at this time the Divine Clan invades, and humanity falls into chaos.

She leads the group, fighting all the way, yet the Divine Clan and demonic beasts seem to multiply the more they are slain.

Even though she possesses Emperor Realm cultivation, she cannot help feeling fatigued.

Finally, after reaching Gusu Ancient City, she is at last intercepted by that Divine Sovereign.

Gazing upon the dense throng of Divine Clan above the firmament, she feels a sense of foreboding.

Faced with the South Sea Emperor's questioning, that Divine Sovereign coldly chuckles and speaks.

"Overstep?"

"Hehe, this whole world belongs to my Divine Clan; where does the notion of overstepping come from?"

"You humans, your survival in this world is also thanks to the grace of my Divine Clan."

"Look at those behind you—tsk tsk tsk, each emanates a dragon-like aura; surely none of them are inferior to you in talent."

"No wonder you risk your life to protect them."

"If you gave them a few hundred years to grow, I wouldn't dare imagine how powerful humanity would become."

"But it's a pity—today you all must die."

That Divine Sovereign's icy gaze sweeps over the hundreds of infants behind the South Sea Empress, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes.

A single Human Emperor is already troublesome; if so many powerhouses were to grow, the consequences would be unthinkable! Fortunately, we acted swiftly, sensing the special human aura, and as soon as it appeared in this world we began our move.

Otherwise, after a few hundred years, there would be no place left for us in this world!

"Kill!"

He splits his ferocious mouthpart, revealing rows of fine, sharp teeth.

Behind him, countless Divine Clan members surge forward to slaughter those on the ground.

Innumerable unawakened infants wail in terror.

Though unable to resist, the divine light emanating from them actually deflects the Divine Clan's abilities and weapons.

This causes many awakened Great Xia peoples to cry out that it's unfair.

"Damn, is this the newbie protection period? Why don't I have it?!"

"Brother, your memories have awakened—do you still want a protection period?"

"Since they're temporarily invincible, let them go up!"

"What do you mean?"

"Hehe, you look great!"

"Holy crap, my fiancée isn't even a month old!"

Many unawakened infants are hurled onto the battlefield like shells by the reincarnated Great Xia peoples.

Those wailing infants instinctively release their divine power, actually suppressing many Divine Clan members, forcing them to retreat repeatedly.

"What... what kind of physique is this? Before these infants I feel powerless!" "Ancient Immortal Script! This is the Ancient Immortal Script—one character can cleave the stars!"

"No retreat—kill them all, kill them all, or else my Divine Clan will have no foothold in the future!"

Numerous Divine Clan members, horrified, grit their teeth and unleash divine power to slaughter the countless infants shrouded in divine light.

In the midst of the battlefield, divine light crisscrosses; under the onslaught of countless Divine Clan, even the immortal light on those infants cannot hold.

"Damn it, the protection period isn't eternal—their divine light is about to fade!"

"What do we do?"

"Take them back! How dare you toss my fellow brother into a pile of people!"

"Damn, his immortal light is like a laser cannon—pick him up and he's a 100,000‑watt light sphere; who else would you throw?"

"I don't care—he's my own brother!"

"Screw it—throw out a batch, then rescue a batch!"

"Screw it—throw out a batch, then rescue a batch!"

Innumerable wailing infants, emanating a terrifying aura, are hurled out again.

At the same time, each solemn‑faced reincarnated Great Xia person spreads their tender arms, manifesting Dharma Forms and divine abilities.

Above the firmament, the South Sea Emperor wields a willow branch and battles the Divine Sovereign, nearly shaking the heavens apart.

The two fought fiercely for a long time; finally, above the firmament, a muffled groan sounded, and a small body was slammed down heavily.

The ground cracked, and the entire body plunged into the ground.

"Holy shit, Nanhai Sis, are you okay?!"

"Her protective divine light is shattered, her breath is weak, she might die!"

"Damn it, if you could give me some time to recover my past-life cultivation, I'll kill these beasts!"

Many had bloodshot eyes; although they were reincarnated ones, along the way they had received the protection of the Nanhai Great Emperor, and after getting along, they had developed deep feelings.

Now seeing that the opponent's protective divine light had been shattered and they were on their last breath, how could they not tear up? "Don't... don't worry about me, you guys hurry up and leave."

"Your talents far surpass mine; given time, you will surely revive humanity!"

The Nanhai Great Emperor struggled to climb up from the ruins.

The small body staggered, blocking everyone's way.

In the ruins, the people of Daxia were utterly silent, but the terrifying aura of the Divine Clan's supreme one enveloped the entire city.

"Heh, leaving?"

"Today, none of you will get away!"

His mouthparts were sharp, his arms transformed into a pair of dark blue blades flashing with cold light, his sturdy feet planted on the ground as he stepped closer.

The infant's cries consumed their protective immortal light as a cost.

Many were already burnt out, their bodies originally those of children, and now they lacked even the strength to stand.

Looking at the sky-covering, flying assault of the Divine Clan, despair filled everyone's eyes.

"Could it be that we are really all going to die here today?"

"We've been reincarnated for less than a year, and we're going to die just like that? I'm not resigned!"

"Heh, you've lived this long, be content—I've only been reincarnated less than a month and already jumped right into fighting demons and monsters!"

"Too bad, my system has only been active for less than seven days; no matter how wildly I boost, I'm only at Foundation Establishment; if you gave me some time, I'd absolutely be invincible!"

"Maybe... this is just fate..."

As the Divine Clan drew near, the light in everyone's eyes began to scatter, as if the whole world had fallen into gloom.

Suddenly, a faint melody drifted from afar.

That familiar voice made everyone involuntarily startle, then slowly lift their heads.

At the moment the source of the sound became clear, everyone was shocked beyond words! Only to see, above the clouds, hundreds of massive chariots bearing red banners, vast and mighty, coming from the horizon.

One after another, resonant voices spread in all directions.

"Brothers, brothers, the Daxia Galaxy Organization Legion, Serial Number 001, has arrived!"

"This is a reunion across three thousand years; I inform all compatriots, please gather quickly!"
