Chapter 505: The Emperor Who Was Slapped

~17 min read 3,232 words

Inside the Tianyang Star Palace, Great Elder Wang Kan was desperately trying to restore Sun Fujia's broken physical body.

He even used a precious Sixth-Tier supreme-grade Star Healing Emblem that he had kept for his own life-saving.

However, Sun Fujia's physical body had already lost its vitality.

The heart was already in pieces.

The surging vitality contained within the powerful Star Healing Emblem was just like falling on a stone, having no effect at all.

But Wang Kan didn't dare to stop!

He had taken Sun Fujia out alive, but now he had brought back a corpse.

That is, the Yuan Spirit survived; otherwise, as long as Tianyang Xingjun became suspicious, he could jump into the Hong River and still not wash it clean.

And Sun Fujia's Yuan Spirit was on the side, watching in terror as Great Elder Wang Kan performed on his own broken physical body.

But the hope he held in his heart was becoming increasingly slim.

The connection between the Yuan Spirit and the physical body was extremely close.

At this very moment, his Yuan Spirit could no longer sense the aura of his physical body.

Suddenly, Sun Fujia's Yuan Spirit trembled, and an indescribable fear enveloped his Yuan Spirit.

He felt that his Yuan Spirit was suddenly like duckweed without roots, and like a beast that had left its herd, fear and loneliness enveloped him.

At the same instant, he felt that his Yuan Spirit aura began to dissipate slowly.

It began to dissipate thread by thread.

No matter how he activated it, no matter how he condensed it, the Yuan Spirit began to dissipate continuously.

This made Sun Fujia terrified.

Because he was very clear.

If this continues, in just a few days, his Yuan Spirit power will dissipate completely, and then, his Divine Soul origin will also begin to dissipate.

By then, he would truly and genuinely be dead!

Thinking of this, an indescribable fear immediately floated into Sun Fujia's heart.

The next instant, a majestic star light fell instantly.

It was Tianyang Xingjun who had arrived.

The moment he fell, Tianyang Xingjun's expression changed instantly, and brilliant star light containing strands of heaven and earth star will surged out, immediately wrapping Sun Fujia's Yuan Spirit, which had already begun to collapse.

Wrapped by the star light containing heaven and earth star will, the collapse of Sun Fujia's Yuan Spirit stopped instantly.

However, it began to consume the star light containing heaven and earth star will.

Temporarily, it was considered safe.

At the same time, Tianyang Xingjun looked at Sun Fujia's broken physical body, his majestic divine sense swept past, and he stopped Great Elder Wang Kan who was still trying to save him with all his strength.

"Heart shattered, vitality lost, unless the Wood Spirit Palace Master breaks through to the Ninth Tier and perhaps has heaven-defying power, there is a possibility of treatment.

Moreover, the Cloud Tower is destroyed, the Star Palace is shattered, this physical body, even if saved, is completely ruined."

Hearing this, Great Elder Wang Kan stopped in trepidation.

"How could it be like this?" Tianyang Xingjun asked.

Afterwards, Great Elder Wang Kan spent dozens of breaths, not daring to have any bias, and recounted the situation of the life-and-death arena on the practice arena today.

Including Ning Yuchan's sudden emergence!

Originally, Sun Fujia was invited to deal with Xu Jin.

Unexpectedly, this Ning Yuchan had a grudge against Sun Fujia before, and specifically challenged Sun Fujia by name.

He advised once, but the second time he didn't succeed, and Sun Fujia went on stage.

Who would have thought that this Ning Yuchan, at the last moment, actually erupted with extremely terrifying combat power, almost killing Sun Fujia completely.

By the time he discovered something was wrong and rescued her regardless of everything, it was already too late.

Tianyang Xingjun listened and frowned, "Who is Ning Yuchan?"

On the side, the Sixth Elder Xia Zhong, who was in charge of the Tianyang Star Palace's intelligence agency, Chi Ying, hurriedly handed over a jade tablet.

It recorded all the information on Ning Yuchan that the Tianyang Star Palace could search for.

It had to be said that this Sixth Elder Xia Zhong, who was in charge of intelligence, had an incomparably sensitive sense of smell.

Discovering that Great Elder Wang Kan brought back the heavily injured Sun Fujia, he felt something was wrong.

Immediately, he summarized all of Ning Yuchan's intelligence; he even added a

After Tianyang Xingjun finished reading, he furrowed his brows.

"Before this, the combat record was very average, with combat power only one minor realm higher than those of the same cultivation level?

Then what is going on now?

How did she suddenly erupt with the ability to kill enemies a major realm higher?"

In Tianyang Xingjun's understanding, although Sun Fujia's cultivation was only at the peak of the sixth-tier ninth layer, his true combat power was at the peak of the seventh-tier ninth layer, hence the question.

"My Lord, Chiying is currently investigating with all its might, analyzing Ning Yuchan's life.

The current point of suspicion is that around the time Ning Yuchan served as the commander of the Fifth Guard of the Chen Guo Profound Tiger, her cultivation experienced a sudden, explosive surge; nine times out of ten, she had some fortuitous encounter during this period.

We are currently investigating," the Sixth Elder, Xia Zhong, replied.

"Is that what I asked?"

Tianyang Xingjun was dissatisfied, leaving the Sixth Elder, Xia Zhong, completely bewildered by the direct question.

"The reason! Why would I look for the reason?

Will finding the reason make her cultivation regress?

I want results!

Do you understand the significance of this Ning Yuchan slaying Fujia?

This means another peerless genius has emerged in Chen Guo!

Not to mention Qi Qi Tian Sheng, who appeared before; he might be dead!

Now there is a Xu Jin, and there is a Ning Yuchan!

Having one such peerless genius would be one thing.

But Chen Guo has two.

As long as these two peerless geniuses grow to the peak of the seventh tier, the future struggles of the present world will have nothing to do with us. Do you understand?"

"My Lord, this subordinate also wanted to arrange a plan earlier.

However, this Ning Yuchan is a member of the diplomatic mission, involving the reputation of Da Hong, so this subordinate did not dare to act without authorization," Xia Zhong said, having reacted.

Tianyang Xingjun frowned and suddenly asked, "Who is the chief envoy?"

"My Lord, the chief envoy is Xu Jin."

Once these words were spoken, Tianyang Xingjun suddenly turned around like a whirlwind. "Chief envoy Xu Jin, and there is also a Ning Yuchan!

Then what are we waiting for?

Slaying these two is equivalent to slaying the future hope of Chen Guo!

If we don't act now, when will we?

I will go personally!"

Tianyang Xingjun instantly turned into starlight and left, but the next instant, the starlight fell back down. "This matter, I cannot do it myself.

If I do it, Cheng Yuexiao, whether she is truly going mad or pretending, will have sufficient reason.

Including the top eighth-tier experts of all forces, everything will be thrown into chaos!

Great Elder, you and Elder Xia take a few more people, have Yang Miao cooperate, no need to find any excuses, just launch a surprise attack.

As long as you kill Xu Jin and Ning Yuchan, withdraw immediately.

Also, that Ying Ge, kill him while you're at it," Tianyang Xing ordered.

"My Lord, the Great Dean of the Chen Guo National Dao Academy, Dong Zhao, is also there," Wang Kan reported.

"That's even better. Since we're doing it anyway, kill this Dong Zhao along with them!

We've already broken off relations with Chen Guo anyway!

I am already carrying the scapegoat for the assassination of the Chen Guo Emperor.

I'm not afraid of killing a few more Chen Guo geniuses.

Just go ahead and do it.

Could it get any worse?" Tianyang Xingjun said.

"Yes, this subordinate accepts the order."

The next instant, Wang Kan and Xia Zhong left the main hall, and a few breaths later, they rushed out with ten seventh-tier experts.

Since the last engagement with Chen Guo, the Tianyang Star Palace had lost three eighth-tier experts in battle; the current eighth-tier manpower was not exactly abundant.

Watching Wang Kan and Xia Zhong leave, Tianyang Xingjun let out a sigh of relief.

He reviewed his decision again and found no problems.

It was correct, and it was wise!

At most, it would just cause Da Hong to lose the trust of other forces and fall into a diplomatic stalemate!

But it doesn't matter!

With strength and resources, there is diplomacy.

Without strength, even with resources, one will only attract robbers!

At this moment, Tianyang Xingjun looked at his true disciple, Sun Fujia, who had already been crippled.

Tianyang Xingjun was extremely cautious when taking on disciples.

He would not take those with poor character, and he would not take those who were not top-tier geniuses.

Basically, he would only take one every ten to twenty years. But each one was a pillar of the Tianyang Star Palace.

To date, he had only taken six true disciples, but only four were growing smoothly.

One was eighth-tier.

And there was another fifth-tier.

The eighth-tier was on the Star River Battlefield, and the fifth-tier was being secretly cultivated by him in a certain star domain.

Without powerful strength, he would not make it public.

His disciples were too easily targeted.

Originally, after Zhang Lin died, Sun Fujia really could have become his successor.

But now Sun Fujia was crippled.

Then he could only focus on cultivating that fifth-tier one.

In these few years, he would have to find time to cultivate one or two more disciples.

But then again, even a dog, if raised for a few years, would have some affection.

Not to mention a true disciple he had cultivated for eight or nine years.

Just watching Sun Fujia's primordial spirit dissipate like this, he, Tianyang Xingjun, could not bring himself to do it.

He still had a bit of human sentiment.

"Fujia, your physical body is completely destroyed, and your life force is severed. Even if I, as your master, have eighth-tier elixirs that can bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh and bones, they would be of no use to your physical body.

Therefore, you currently have only two paths to potentially continue living," Tianyang Xingjun said.

Quite a while had passed, and Sun Fujia had barely accepted this reality, but hearing his master say this, he was still incomparably disappointed.

He had previously pinned his hopes on his omnipotent master being able to save his physical body and give him a chance for revenge.

Hearing this now, his primordial spirit trembled violently again.

Seeing this scene, Tianyang Xingjun suddenly felt dissatisfied; he found his once-beloved disciple somewhat unbearable to look at.

"Things have reached this point; you must learn to accept it, you must learn to face it!

If you are like this, how can I help you?

It is only because you have me as your master.

If it were anyone else encountering this situation, there would only be a dead end; where would there be a choice!" Tianyang Xingjun said indignantly.

This indignation scared Sun Fujia out of his wits; the little person formed by his primordial spirit hurriedly bowed and prostrated, saying, "This disciple is incompetent and has caused Master's reputation to be burdened!

I only beg Master to give me guidance so that this disciple may have a chance to repay Master."

Seeing this pitiful state, Tianyang Xingjun felt pity again and sighed, "I know your intention; you want revenge, right?"

Hearing this, a look of resentment suddenly appeared on the face of Sun Fujia's primordial spirit. "I beg Master to give this disciple this chance for revenge! This disciple now wishes he could swallow that bitch alive!

I wish I could tear the Chen Guo diplomatic mission, all the people of Chen Guo, into pieces!"

"Both paths to survival have the possibility of revenge!

The first path is for me to refine you into an eight-star spirit treasure or an inheritance spirit treasure as a spirit tool!

If there is a chance in the future, the wielder of this spirit treasure will naturally be able to take you to seek revenge," Tianyang Xingjun said.

"Spirit tool?"

"Master, can I move freely or cultivate?" Sun Fujia asked.

"Certainly not. The benefit is that it is simple and saves trouble; besides being trapped in the spirit treasure, there are no other drawbacks," Tianyang Xingjun said.

"Master, I want to hear about the second path."

"The second path is slightly more painful.

I can help you find a suitable physical body for your primordial spirit to enter; it counts as rebirth through possession.

It's just that even if you regain a physical body, you can only inherit the body's cultivation and cannot cultivate, though the primordial spirit can improve its cultivation."

"Master, I am willing; I choose the second path, I choose the second path." Before Tianyang Xingjun had finished speaking, Sun Fujia made his choice eagerly.

To him, the second path was too suitable for his revenge.

"Listen to me finish; the second path has one huge drawback!

Because you are possessing the physical body of a powerful cultivator, it must be at least seventh-tier or even eighth-tier.

Such a physical body inherently has the imprint of its own spirit soul origin.

This cannot be cleared.

After your primordial spirit takes over and is reborn through possession, the physical body will instinctively resist you.

This will cause an invisible force to backlash against your primordial spirit every day, like Yin fire burning the body.

Every day at the hour of Zi, there will be at least one hour of Yin fire burning the body.

It is more painful than torture.

Moreover, this torture is something you must endure every day and every night!

Unless you abandon this physical body!" Tianyang Xingjun said.

"This... Master, then can you help me get a physical body with great talent so I can cultivate again?" Sun Fujia asked naively!

"Any physical body with talent, once its original spirit soul origin is extinguished, will become trash!" Tianyang Xingjun sneered.

Sun Fujia fell silent.

"If you cannot endure it, then be a spirit tool," Tianyang Xingjun said.

"No, Master, I want to obtain a new physical body!

One hour, I can endure it!

I still have eleven hours of freedom!

I want revenge!

I still have to repay Master!" Sun Fujia said through gritted teeth.

Hearing this, Tianyang Xingjun laughed, "That's right, that's more like my disciple!

If you want revenge, then I must find you a stronger physical body; seventh-tier definitely won't do!

It must be at least eighth-tier, preferably mid-to-late eighth-tier.

Only then will you have the possibility of revenge!

But mid-to-late eighth-tier physical bodies are not easy to find; they are extremely rare in the present world.

How about this, I'll find you an alien physical body, how about that?

In the future, it will be convenient for you to seek revenge, and you will also have the opportunity to help me expand and garrison an eighth-tier star domain?" Tianyang Xingjun said.

"Good, I leave it to Master's arrangement," Sun Fujia said through gritted teeth.

He had completely thought it through!

To survive and to seek revenge, he had to listen to his master, Tianyang Xingjun.

"Then I will find it for you as soon as possible..."

Before he could finish speaking, a ten-thousand-emergency starlight message suddenly rang out on Tianyang Xingjun's Star-Plucking Token. He sank his mind into it, and after just one glance, Tianyang Xingjun was furious.

"How dare he!"

The next instant, Tianyang Xingjun disappeared instantly.

Five breaths later, Tianyang Xingjun had already appeared inside the main building of the Star-Plucking Tower in Da Hong's Changle City. As starlight flickered, he had already rushed into the Imperial Palace.

Inside the Imperial Palace main hall, the Da Hong Emperor was discussing state affairs with several ministers.

Seeing Tianyang Xingjun rush in with an unfriendly expression, those ministers were sensible and withdrew immediately!

Just as those important Da Hong ministers exited the hall, Tianyang Xingjun suddenly stepped forward and slapped the Da Hong Emperor across the face, directly causing the Da Hong Emperor to stagger and blood to spill from the corner of his mouth!

"Did you deliberately let them go?"

"I don't believe you couldn't see that point?" Tianyang Xingjun questioned.

The beaten Da Hong Emperor smiled bitterly and bowed to Tianyang Xingjun in greeting, "My Lord, I saw it, but it was out of helplessness!"

"Oh, helplessness?"

Tianyang Xingjun sneered, "You, the dignified Da Hong Emperor, what could possibly make you helpless?"

The Da Hong Emperor had a smile on his face and a smile in his eyes, but inside he was cursing: Is there any Da Hong Emperor who gets slapped?

"My Lord, Cheng Yuexiao sent me a letter, so I had no choice but to let them go," the Da Hong Emperor said helplessly.

"Where is the letter?"

Hearing this, the Da Hong Emperor handed the jade tablet previously given by Dong Zhao to Tianyang Xingjun.

The sealed spirit soul imprint was Cheng Yuexiao's, but the content was a bit different.

The first point had already been erased by the Da Hong Emperor.

There was only the slightly altered content of the second and third points.

【Even if the two countries are at war, do not kill envoys. No eighth-tier expert in the world shall strike at the descendants of an emperor; Cheng does not dare to be the first in the world.

May I ask if the descendants of the Emperor and the important ministers of Da Hong can obtain top-tier eighth-tier protection at all times in the future?】

【Cheng has no extravagant hopes, only hoping that Xu Jin returns to his country safely.

Otherwise, Cheng will surely go mad!】

Looking at the content inside the jade tablet, Tianyang Xingjun's brows were locked tight.

To tell the truth, this threat was heavy enough!

It could indeed threaten the Da Hong Emperor!

If this threat had reached his hands, he would still have been determined to kill Xu Jin and Ning Yuchan.

What did the bloodline of the Da Hong Imperial family have to do with him!

If important ministers of Da Hong died, he could just foster another batch!

There were plenty of talents!

But this letter, falling into the hands of the Da Hong Emperor, was a very heavy threat!

Cheng Yuexiao was a top-tier eighth-tier expert of the present age; except for him, Tianyang Xingjun, no one could control her!

Under these circumstances, the Da Hong Emperor letting the Chen Guo diplomatic mission go was somewhat explainable!

"In the future, if there is such a matter again, report it to me immediately, and I will make the decision!

Otherwise, you can find a day to become the Retired Emperor."

After speaking, Tianyang Xingjun turned into starlight and disappeared instantly.

For a long time, the bowing Da Hong Emperor slowly straightened his body, touching the swelling on his cheek, his eyes filled with cold, murderous intent!
