A Savior Arrives, Just as Expected
The Pirate Emperor was furious.
He felt like too many people were provoking him tonight.
First, Lü Xiaochuan almost stole the Boundless Divine Bottle, and then that arrogant young man made outrageous remarks about helping Lü Xiaochuan out of a predicament.
Then this madman kept fighting with him.
This left him with too many tasks to handle.
At this time.
The mysterious old man completely disregarded him.
Each and every one of these incidents.
All of this completely humiliated him.
He had dominated the Sea of Death for years; how could he have ever suffered such humiliation?
The Boundless Divine Bottle is in hand.
Even if a powerful Saint Venerable from the God Clan were to personally arrive, there's still a chance he could be buried at the bottom of the sea.
But now, one by one, they all disregard him.
He had reached his limit.
"You madman, I'll kill you first and restore my imperial authority."
The Pirate Emperor roared angrily.
His body began to grow rapidly.
The originally short Pirate Emperor suddenly grew to be tens of feet tall, and a dorsal fin protruded from his back.
His head, at this moment, also transformed into a shark's head.
Then.
He moved.
It came with overwhelming force.
Sui Qingshan's eyes lit up, and he stomped his feet on the ground, charging forward.
Although he was covered in wounds, he was still incredibly excited.
Especially after seeing the Pirate Emperor's trump card.
It was a pleasant surprise.
Sui Qingshan made a hand Method Formula, and a pattern of towering waves appeared before him.
It was the raging waves stirred up by that giant sea beast earlier, and Sui Qingshan had actually sealed them within this pattern.
And it was unleashed at that moment.
The raging waves crashed away.
But when the blow was applied to the Pirate Emperor, there was no reaction whatsoever.
"It seems that his current appearance has made him immune to the waters of the Sea of Sea of Death."
Now.
The Pirate Emperor's subordinates have been mostly dealt with.
Nalan Yao and the others also withdrew from the battle.
He rushed to Chen Ning's side and looked at Chu Hengkong with apprehension.
Unlike Sui Qingshan, they had not reached the Saint Emperor Realm.
They are at most unmatched at the Saint King Realm.
Therefore, at this moment, facing Chu Hengkong, a terrifying enemy in the Late Saint Emperor, they were completely powerless to fight back.
Most.
It can only slow down the time it takes for him to kill everyone.
"Save your energy and go help Sui Qingshan."
Chen Ning knew that with their strength, even facing the Pirate Emperor would be a near-certain death.
Not to mention the elder of the Darkness God Clan standing before them.
"Leader, we will do everything we can to help you leave."
Old Man Yang faced death without fear. His life was given to him by the old leader, and the new leader gave him a new life, so he was the most at ease.
I would gladly face death.
"Leader, we may not be a match for this old man, but we have all received a portion of Divine Power. If we go all out, even if he is in the Late Saint Emperor, we can hold him off!"
Nalan Yao gritted her teeth, though she said that.
But the pressure was still too great.
Bai Ziyu's Righteous Qi erupted, his fighting spirit surged, and he said, "Leader, I am not as composed as they are. After my death, I ask the leader to do one unfinished business for me."
Xue Rang didn't speak, but stared firmly at Chu Hengkong.
Chen Ning was suddenly moved.
These guys, though they have different personalities and aren't exactly good people, Chen Ning is growing to like them more and more.
"As sacrifices, aren't you thinking of living a few more days instead of rushing to your deaths?"
Chu Hengkong gave a disdainful laugh.
Lü Xiaochuan sighed, somewhat helplessly, "Didn't you promise to help me out of this predicament? How come you're in trouble yourself now?"
After saying that.
Lü Xiaochuan threw something over.
Chen Ning took it and saw that it was the Boundless Divine Bottle.
"What's the meaning?"
"Use this. I'm injured; you should be able to activate it better."
Lü Xiaochuan placed his hopes on the Boundless Divine Bottle.
Chen Ning grasped the Boundless Divine Bottle and channeled his Essence Power into it. The Boundless Divine Bottle glowed faintly, and the Taotie beast on its surface became even more lifelike.
Then.
The once calm sea suddenly became turbulent.
Waves rolled up, resembling pillars reaching the sky.
As Chen Ning urged it on.
They all hurtled and circled towards Chu Hengkong.
Chu Hengkong smiled faintly and waved his hand, causing the several wave tornadoes to dissipate completely.
Everyone was taken aback.
The Late Saint Emperor.
"It seems there's no chance he'll ever get his hands on the Sea of Sea of Death."
Lü Xiaochuan also looked solemn.
"It's no use. This old Western Heaven's body is naturally withered. He uses darkness as his physical form, so even if he touches seawater, it won't affect him. But because of this, he can no longer advance to the Saint Venerable realm and can only remain in the Emperor Realm forever. How pathetic."
A voice echoed in the void.
Upon hearing this...
Chu Hengkong was startled.
Someone actually revealed his secret directly.
His expression suddenly hardened.
Look out at the sea.
A figure emerged from the Sea of Death, unrestrained and free. Chen Ning smiled knowingly; the newcomer was none other than Emperor Yu.
Why are you only showing up now?
Chen Ning smiled slightly.
Emperor Yu showed a look of surprise. "What? You guessed that your master has been by your side all this time?"
"I suppose so. The main reason is that I didn't sense any powerful members of the Light God Clan following me, but there must be someone secretly protecting me. The Light God Clan wouldn't dare to let me have any surprises now."
"The fact that even the Light Clan Leader is willing not to send anyone to secretly follow me means that the person truly protecting me must be incredibly powerful. However, Heavenly Venerable Zhu is still in the Light God Clan, and that Saint Venerable Qitian has always been my adversary, so he would never be willing to do such a task."
So, it's just you, Master.
After Chen Ning finished speaking...
Emperor Yu laughed heartily, "He truly is my disciple."
Actually.
There are two reasons why Emperor Yu and others have only made their move now. First, the others are simply not worthy of his attention. Second, it is to test whether his disciple's subordinates are truly reliable.
After all, they are people who are always by my side.
If one deserts at a crucial moment, it could ruin everything.
