"How did you know it had to be the Divine Emperor, Master?" Baimeng asked curiously.
In truth, he did not think much of the Great Emperors of this world. After all, his true strength had reached the level of opening ten Meridian Gates.
It was merely the rules of Yuanyang Continent that restricted him.
"Someone capable of commanding five Immortal Ascension experts—within the Divine Gate, I cannot think of a second person," Xu Zimo said with a smile. "I simply cannot understand why the Divine Emperor went to such lengths to find me.

Xu Zimo fixed his gaze
