Not even a Quasi-Immortal Emperor?
This Emperor?
What did that mean?
Wude's mind went blank. He had only been in seclusion for a short while. What had happened in the meantime?
Why did he feel so out of the loop?
"He's already completed the path to Quasi-Immortal Emperor. He can break through at any time." King Yu looked at Wude as he spoke.
"Ah???"
Wude's mouth fell open and his eyes widened. He couldn't believe what he'd just heard.
He'd only been in seclusion for a little while, and Ao Kun was already about to become a Quasi-Immortal Emperor?
Wasn't cultivation supposed to get harder the higher one climbed? He hadn't even advanced from King Giant to Imperial Light Giant, and Ao Kun was about to go from Imperial Light Giant to Quasi-Immortal Emperor?
That made no sense!!
"What happened?"
Wude was clever. He guessed that something must have happened while he was in seclusion, something he hadn't heard about.
"An outsider came from there. Ao Kun fought to the death, ascended to the utmost extreme, and deduced the Five Primordials Origin."
King Yu told Wude what had happened earlier.
When he heard the whole story, Wude was dumbstruck. Flames filled his eyes, but they weren't flames of anger—they were flames of jealousy!
Why?!
Why was Ao Kun so lucky?
How had his breakthrough been so easy?
Damn it!
No wonder he'd called himself This Emperor!
Thinking back to what Ao Kun had just said, Wude suddenly felt as sick as if he'd swallowed ants. It was unbearable!
If only he hadn't stopped Ao Kun!
Hadn't he practically handed Ao Kun the chance to mock him?
Aah!!
A marmot's shriek echoed in Wude's heart!
"He can enter the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm at any time?"
