Imperial God Emperor

As Ye Qingyu was speaking, there were rumbles of thunder in the sky, like a response from the laws of the Dao sounds. It was as though the vault of heaven of the Dark Realm had also sensed his will. 

Zhang Longcheng instantly had an abrupt change of expression. 

From Ye Qingyu’s tone of voice, he sensed an iron-like determination and a vast willpower, which made him realize that the other side was clearly not here just for any personal grudges. Such people were the scariest, because there was nothing that could change their minds. 

But Zhang Longcheng still couldn't control his fury.  

“You really do not respect the Guardian camp,” he said with a darkened face. “I am a noble clan bestowed by the Guardian camp, in control of governing the Luoshen Ridge, and is protected by the whole camp. But you have touched me, which means you want to go against the entire Guardian camp. Even if you possess earth-shaking divine power, it won't be enough to go against the whole Guardian camp. I advise you to think twice.” 

“The whole Guardian camp?” Ye Qingyu raised his head, looking at the gloomy sky. “I hope the rest of the places are not as messy as it is in the Luoshen Ridge. Otherwise, I would be really disappointed in this so-called Guardian camp.” 

“You really are too arrogant.” Quasi-emperor Xu Shaohua's expression was indefinitely gloomy. “Do you know what would be the consequences of what you said just now?” 

“Oh?” Ye Qingyu cast a glance at him, “What are the consequences?” 

“The [Guardian Imperial City] will issue a wanted order so that you would be hunted by everyone of the Dark Realm. At that time, even if you have the ability to escape to the great thousands of domains outside the city, you will still be chased after. In the great wide world there will be no place for you to stand.” Xu Shaohua spoke in a threatening tone of voice. 

“Oh, is that so.” Ye Qingyu looked at him and suddenly asked, “Are you a human being?”

Xu Shaohua was taken aback, not knowing why he asked him this question but still nodded, “That's correct.”  

“Since you are able to achieve the Quasi-emperor realm, you must be a descendant of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors back then, is that right?” Ye Qingyu then asked.

Xu Shaohua's face glimmered with a hint of pride. “Yes, I am a descendant of His Majesty the [Ocean Sand Emperor] of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. The most pure and primitive blood of the Emperor of the Human Race runs in my body.”

“Since you’re a descendant of the [Ocean Sand Emperor] and has reached the Quasi-emperor realm, then excuse me for asking but in these years, what have you done for the Human Race?”

“Ah?” Xu Shaohua immediately understood the meaning of Ye Qingyu, and snapped, “I have traveled everywhere, sheltered the Human Race, and have killed dark beasts. I am now invited by City Lord Zhang Longcheng to station at Luoshen Ridge to protect the people, I...”  

Ye Qingyu sneered, pointing to the wounded black-haired Dark Ones on the small dirt field who were shivering, panic-stricken and were forced away from their homes. “Protect the people? Is that how you protect them?” 

Xu Shaohua sneered, “These lowly citizens are inferior to bugs, are they worthy of my protection?” 

The shivering black-haired Dark Ones, upon hearing such words, suddenly hung their heads lower, both sad and angry, but were powerless to change anything. 

Becaue on the Dark Realm, this was the situation of the Dark Ones. 

Ye Qingyu then asked expressionlessly, “Is that right? Have you ever been to the battlefield at the borders and fought against Invaders?” 

Xu Shaohua replied firmly, “Fighting against Invaders is what the inferior Sinners should do. I certainly will not go there.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyu's heart was increasingly icy cold. “But I heard that the [Ocean Sand Emperor] was from a lowly social status and a subsidiary of the Demon Race. Later he had also sheltered your so-called lowly citizens, and if I had guessed right, His Majesty the [Ocean Sand Emperor] has also fought against Invaders?” 

“Shut up.” Xu Shaohua's face reddened in embarrassment, “Are the matters of my family something trash like you can talk about, you...”  

“You shut up,” Ye Qingyu snapped, strands of hair spreading out. “Shameless, I have never seen such a shameless person as you. You say you’re a descendant of His Majesty the [Ocean Sand Emperor], but what you do is against your clan and ancestors. As a descendant of a martial arts Emperor of the Human Race, you don’t shelter the Human Race, you don’t fight against Invaders, and instead ride on the head of the Human Race and abuse your power, exploiting the people who were once sheltered by the [Ocean Sand Emperor]. You have forgotten the goal that your ancestors had fought for. A trash like you, how did you cultivate to the Quasi-Emperor realm? Also how can you shamelessly live to this day?” 

His voice, like a rolling thunder, shook heaven and earth. 

In the sky, bolts of heavenly lightning were flickering and dancing wildly. It was as though the vault of heaven would also collapse from Ye Qingyu's wrath. A majestic aura, with Ye Qingyu as the center, reverberated through heaven and earth. 

At this moment, Ye Qingyu's fiery-red long hair was fluttering in the breeze, like flames washing away and purifying the mortal world. On this long endless night, he radiated a bright fire-like aura. 

“You...” Xu Shaohua's nose was puffing out steam. 

Had he ever been scolded like this before? 

“It seems that you still do not repent on your actions. So stubborn, then I'll send you on the road.” Ye Qingyu had lost the patience to continue lecturing this despicable person. He took a step forward, pointing out one finger again.  

The powers of laws were surging once again. 

The roar of the Dao sounds resembled raging waves. 

A transparent flame finger pressed down at Xu Shaohua.

“[Seven Layer Tidal Waves]!” Xu Shaohua roared, once again forming the Yin and Yang pattern with his palms. A terrifying Quasi-emperor strength filled the air, layer upon layer, like ocean waves. One wave struck another, until there were seven layers of waves. Each time the strength violently doubled, and after the seventh layer was formed, the power that his Yin and Yang palm contained was far beyond the strength he should possess.  

This was the real profound meaning of the [Ocean Sand Emperor's] martial arts mantra. 

However, everything was no use now. 

When the flame finger pointed out, it had already completely broken the power of the Yin and Yang palm, like a piece of paper being incinerated by a flame. 

Then the giant flame finger crushed down at Xu Shaohua's body. In the midst of cries of disbelief and desperate struggle, he was incinerated upon contact like a paper figure. In a flash, this arrogant Quasi-emperor was burned to ashes, dissipating between heaven and earth.  

Before Ye Qingyu had reached the Quasi-emperor realm, he already could kill a Quasi-emperor. And now that he had achieved the realm of Quasi-emperor, accumulated great knowledge and experiences, his battle strength at this time could be described as almost invincible and just under the martial arts Emperor. Moreover, the [Life Sword Mantra], which had been fused with many martial skills in the [Fiendgod Titled Chart], was incredibly powerful and shocking. If he did not have to conceal his true identity and thus only able to use the power of flame to kill Xu Shaohua, a Quasi-emperor existence, how would he need to waste so much effort. 

However, such a scene, in the eyes of others, was almost like a miracle. 

A Quasi-emperor, a real Quasi-emperor was killed like that? He did not have time to use any secret techniques or remarkable skills before he was burned to ashes?

Even Eleven, at this moment, was also dumbfounded. 

He knew that his new master was terrifyingly powerful. Otherwise he would not have been able to break through all of Ye Chen’s means and killed him. However, he did not think that what Ye Qingyu displayed when he killed Ye Chen was just the tip of the iceberg of his strength.

After all, only he knew that, in order to cover up his real identity, Ye Qingyu did not reveal his ice origin power and sword intent. He had already held back in his move just now. 

And Zhang Longcheng instantly felt that he had fallen into an ice cave. 

His most powerful existence among the esteemed masters and his largest support in the entire Central City of Luoshen Ridge was crushed to death like a bug. This meant that the battle was already completely over already. 

He turned around and fled.

He did not even say a single word. 

And the direction of his escape was not Central City of Luoshen Ridge. 

But towards the void in the north. 

For he knew that the Central City of Luoshen Ridge would no longer belong to him and that he would only die if he were to go back. It would be better if he fled to other places and ask for help from the Guardian camp.  

“Come back.” 

Ye Qingyu waved his hand. 

A vast magnificent power, like a black hole, instantaneously dragged back Zheng Longcheng who had already fled hundreds of kilometers away. 

Zhang Longcheng only felt everything blur in front of him, like the flow of time and space, then he realized that he had returned to the dirt field of Bitter Hill Village.  

“You... are you really going to go this far?” Zhang Longcheng roared like a beast fallen into a trap. 

Ye Qingyu did not speak, but his action spoke for itself. 

The terrifying power of laws, following Ye Qingyu's thoughts, wrapped around Zhang Longcheng, squeezing him to death in the void.  

“Ahhh ahhhh...” Zhang Longcheng frantically roared. “You want to kill me, kekekeke... It’s not that easy, I am a noble bestowed by the Guardian camp, I have the medal of nobility. Hahaha, I can be spared death...”

Amid the roar, he summoned out a strange brass medal.

The medal was the size of a palm, emitting strange rays of light, and flowing with the aura of a martial arts Emperor. It gradually suspended up, hovering above Zhang Longcheng's head. The brass-coloured light, like a shield, fully protected him in it.

Ye Qingyu's power of laws was not able to break the shield. 

“That's...” Ye Qingyu trembled, a look of disbelief crossing his face for the first time. 

How could this be?  

This medal... it's... 

Ye Qingyu found that the medal of nobility that Zhang Longcheng had summoned out was unexpectedly exactly the same as the brass medal his father left with him in Deer City. Whether it was in the shape or the fine seal carving, there was no difference. The only difference was that the medal his father left him was smaller than this medal. 

Coincidence? 

Or... 

This set off stormy waves in Ye Qingyu's heart. 

And at the same time, the mist emitted by the medal of nobility was scattering in all directions, the brass glow fell on Ye Qingyu, and then something strange happened. 

Ye Qingyu only felt that the qi and blood of his body were uncontrollably bubbling up all of a sudden. Currents of blood and qi were rushing through the meridians, passing over the skin and bones, and eventually rushed to the top of his head, and then, like an invisible brush, drew out a large character above his head. 

Seeing this writing, Zhang Longcheng suddenly screamed out like a slaughtered pig——
