"I truly underestimated you... It seemed the rumors were not false."
The black-clad young man smiled bitterly, his expression filled with desolation.
At such a young age, he had broken through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm, his brilliance unmatched. Yet before Qin Jun, a mere Grand Unity Profound Immortal, he had no power to resist. Only he understood how deeply that blow struck him.
"Underestimated Us? By you?"
Qin Jun scoffed, as though he had heard the greatest joke in the world. A Great Luo Golden Immortal dared to look down on him?
How ignorant!
With that thought, he slowly raised his right hand. Since he could not get any answers, he could not blame Qin Jun for being merciless.
Seeing Qin Jun about to strike, the black-clad young man's expression changed instantly. He hurriedly shouted, "I am Qin Lingming!"
Qin Jun's right hand halted in midair. Extreme Dao Flame Fire surged wildly around him, transforming into dragons and tigers.
"What did you say?!"
Qin Jun's tone turned even colder. He had considered whether this black-clad young man might be Xiao Lingming after growing up.
But he had quickly dismissed the idea. Though time flowed differently within the Space-Time Forbidden Zone, this person knew the Great Dao Birth Heavenly Wheel. He could not possibly be Xiao Lingming.
Xiao Lingming had been so young when they separated. Qin Jun had never taught him any of this.
"I truly am..."
The black-clad young man endured the intense pain and struggled to sit up. Looking up at Qin Jun, he smiled bitterly. "My mother is Zhu Yanqing, Holy Consort of the Great Qin Heavenly Court. You are Heavenly Emperor Qin Qin Jun!"
Qin Jun froze. Throughout the universe, his true name had not spread. Everyone called him the Heavenly Emperor Qin.
