A moment later, he finally spoke. "Kid, do you know the Great Emperor?"
Su Yang remained calm, the corners of his lips lifting slightly. "Whether Great Emperor Wushi knows me or not is his business."
He turned around, looked at everyone present, and slowly said, "Everyone, today's matter is over. Void Great Emperor's life was an extraordinary one."
"Today, we talked about his path to becoming an emperor. Another day, we'll discuss his heroic deeds in his later years, so that everyone can understand his greatness better."
After hearing this, everyone nodded one after another, seemingly intent on ignoring the scene of Su Yang's forceful intervention just now.
"Mister Su, will we be able to hear you tell stories again?"
"After listening to your stories, I've completely lost interest in the tales told by other storytellers."
"Who doesn't feel the same? The stories Mister Su tells are so fascinating that they're impossible to forget.
"I especially want to know whether, after Void Great Emperor, there were another 126 Great Emperors, and whether Mister Su will tell us about them one by one."
The crowd conversed in low voices before gradually rising to their feet and leaving the inn.
Seeing this, Third Holy Mother did not linger either. She slowly stood up and walked out through the inn's entrance.
As Changxi was leaving, she turned back and glanced at Su Yang. Her eyes held a trace of longing, and her heart was filled with complicated emotions. Xi He, who stood beside her, could not help sighing softly at the sight.
In Xi He's eyes, although Su Yang possessed extraordinary qualities, he had also provoked existences he should never have offended.
Not to mention that Immortal King Anlan, whom he had brought with him, had not only angered the Heavenly Dao but had also thoroughly offended the Earthly Dao!
It could be said that, in a short time, Su Yang had formed a karmic connection with two mighty figures.
One was the Dao Ancestor in Zixiao Palace, the teacher of the Six Sages!
The other was Empress Houtu, who governed the Six Paths of Reincarnation!
Such circumstances were undoubtedly extremely troublesome for Su Yang. Seeing Changxi gradually develop feelings for Su Yang, Xi He was filled with helplessness.
Perhaps I should limit how often Changxi comes to listen to stories, Xi He thought to herself.
The City God put away the jade stones in his hands one by one, but the shock in his eyes had yet to fade.
He had originally planned to collect some stories today and sell them to other powerful figures or demon clans in the Three Realms for a little profit.
But today's events had already spread throughout the Three Realms. No one was unaware of them.
The jade stones had naturally lost their value.
Recalling the scene of Immortal King Anlan standing above the Nine Heavens with the Heavenly Abyss on his back and the Immortal Shield in hand to withstand the heavenly tribulation,
and then fighting alone against a quasi-sage and a Grand Unity Golden Immortal working together, the City God's heart surged with excitement, and he remained unable to calm down for a long time.
At the same time, he had also become intensely curious about Su Yang's true identity.
As Nuwa was leaving, she glanced at Su Yang seemingly unintentionally, and thoughts seemed to surface in her mind.
When she happened to notice Ruthless Great Emperor standing beside Su Yang and saw the bronze mask hanging at her waist, her expression changed slightly.
She suddenly remembered something.
In the story Su Yang had told earlier, a woman who had dazzled the ages had appeared in the Shrouding the Heavens World.
Ruthless Great Emperor!
That line—"I do not seek to become an immortal. I only wish for you to exist in the mortal world"—had moved countless people and brought tears to the eyes of innumerable listeners. Nuwa had also been deeply touched.
Yet now, the bronze mask worn by the woman before her was exactly the same as the one Su Yang had described Ruthless Great Emperor as wearing.
A bold thought surfaced in Nuwa's mind.
Could everything that happened in the Shrouding the Heavens World have been personally experienced by this young man?!
She was utterly shocked. If the woman before her truly was the Ruthless Great Emperor spoken of by Su Yang,
then this young man's origins were far more extraordinary than they appeared.
The thought sent stormy waves crashing through Nuwa's heart.
If that was really the case, then had Great Emperor Wushi also come from the Shrouding the Heavens World? Was he also one of the legendary 127 Great Emperors?
And would Immortal King Anlan, who claimed to be the Immortal King, also be one of the powerful figures Su Yang would tell them about in the future?
The moment this thought arose, ripples spread through Nuwa's heart.
Perhaps the stories of the Shrouding the Heavens World were not fiction after all!
If so, would those peerless experts from the Shrouding the Heavens World descend upon the Primordial World one day in the future?
If that day truly came, what kind of upheaval would the Primordial World face?
Nuwa's eyes flickered. Then she quietly glanced at Su Yang before slowly walking out of the inn.
What she had heard and witnessed today was enough for her to digest slowly.
After all the listeners had dispersed, Su Yang stretched lazily and finally let out a sigh of relief.
The way everything had developed had been beyond his expectations.
Fortunately, relying on the Anlan Summoning Card and the Great Emperor Wushi Summoning Card, he had ultimately resolved the crisis.
Looking at the little more than ten thousand points remaining in the system, Su Yang felt a trace of regret.
If that unexpected turn of events in the middle had not happened, he should have had at least one hundred thousand points by now.
However, Su Yang quickly adjusted his mindset.
This disturbance might bring even greater gains.
Because of the battle just now, the Great Divine Ability Users of the Three Realms had all turned their attention toward him.
Then, during his next lecture, he might be able to earn even more points from those great figures.
As he was pondering this, a streak of golden light suddenly flashed across the sky!
A fifteen- or sixteen-year-old youth appeared out of thin air above the inn!
He held the Red Tassel Spear, stood atop the Wind Fire Wheels, had red silk wrapped around his body, and a golden ring hovered above his head!
This person was none other than the Great God of the Three Altars—Nezha!
"It's actually Nezha?" Su Yang was slightly stunned. Why had he appeared in Qingshan City?
Nezha stood atop the Wind Fire Wheels, hovering above Qingshan City. His gaze locked onto the inn, carrying a trace of confusion and curiosity.
He was surprised to discover that the area around the inn seemed to be shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see clearly.
This discovery aroused Nezha's suspicions and made him even more curious.
Who exactly were Great Emperor Wushi and Immortal King Anlan, who had appeared earlier?
And how had they concealed themselves from everyone's senses and appeared without a sound?
What puzzled him even more was that these two existences possessed unfathomable strength and should not have been unknown, yet he had never heard of them.
Nezha gazed at the inn. Realizing that he could not see through the mysteries within, he could not help becoming somewhat interested.
Strange. Earlier, when I was at the High Heaven Hall, I could still clearly sense what was happening inside the inn. But now it's like looking at flowers through fog, impossible to make out.
"Third Prince, I've already gotten the details from the City God outside Qingshan City. The Seventh Princess's whereabouts this time have been confirmed."
Not long afterward, Jade Rabbit quietly appeared beside Nezha and softly reported the information she had obtained from the City God of Qingshan City.
After listening, Nezha nodded slightly. He swept his gaze across an inconspicuous inn in Qingshan City, then turned and left.
Jade Rabbit noticed the meaning behind Nezha's glance and instinctively looked toward the inn as well, but she did not discover anything unusual.
Could the Third Prince also like listening to stories? This thought flashed through Jade Rabbit's mind, but she did not dwell on it. In any case, the Third Prince's preferences had nothing to do with her.
Watching Nezha and Jade Rabbit leave one after another and fly toward the depths of Qingshan, Su Yang could not help revealing a trace of confusion.
He had originally thought the two of them had come for him, but judging by the situation, that did not seem to be the case. Instead, they seemed to have something urgent to attend to and were in a great hurry.
"Hey, kid, why are you staring over there?"
Black Emperor held a chicken leg in one hand. Seeing Su Yang gaze toward the sky, he could not help asking.
He looked up, but did not discover anything.
"I just ran into a familiar face. It's nothing," Su Yang said with a deep breath.
When he turned around and saw that Black Emperor had somehow produced another chicken leg, his brows immediately rose. He could not help asking, "Come to think of it, where did that chicken leg come from?"
"You mean this?" Black Emperor grinned and took a ring from his body, handing it over. "I smelled something delicious earlier,
so I found a shop with its door open and went inside to take a look."
"There was no one guarding the shop. This emperor was kindhearted, so I watched it for a while. When the owner came back, he gave me a pile of chicken legs."
After Black Emperor finished speaking, he took another bite and asked indistinctly, "Want some?"
"I suspect that shopkeeper wanted to butcher you," Su Yang said, caught between laughter and tears.
He did not dare believe a single word Black Emperor said. The so-called "watching the shop" was probably just an excuse Black Emperor had made after stealing and eating the food.
Boom!
Suddenly, a muffled peal of thunder came from the direction of the distant Qingshan Mountains. It shook the ground as though it were trembling, immediately drawing the attention of both men.
Black Emperor's expression turned solemn as he gazed at the mountain range. "Kid, your Earthly Realm is seriously strange. Someone's fighting over there again."
"Can you tell what their cultivation levels are?" Su Yang asked with a frown.
