Star Luo Empire, imperial palace.
The Star Luo Emperor watched the sky screen, his expression icy.
Zhu Zhuqing had betrayed them!
Betraying the marriage contract meant betraying the Star Luo Empire!
What a pity for the future God of Speed.
The emperor shook his head regretfully.
In his view.
Zhu Zhuqing could only become a god by going to the Peerless Tang Sect timeline.
Now that she had gone to the Human Emperor World, what could she possibly achieve?
With her talent, she would have to burn incense in gratitude if she even broke through to Titled Douluo.
Fortunately.
Dai Mubai had remained steadfast and had not been bewitched by that temptress.
The emperor immediately felt reassured.
As expected of his son, the future God of War.
With the God of War still in the Star Luo Empire, once Dai Mubai ascended the throne, Star Luo would surely annex the future Star Luo Empire!
His gaze turned vicious.
The emperor already regarded Dai Mubai as the future emperor, while the struggle for the throne at age twenty-five had been tossed to the back of his mind.
None of that mattered.
Even if Dai Mubai lost when the time came, he would still name him crown prince.
"Electrolux."
"After Tang San, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others become gods, who would be stronger, them or you?"
Watching the sky screen, Feng Xiaotian suddenly thought of this question.
"You mean those ant-like gods from the Peerless Tang Sect timeline?"
"Hmph."
"At my peak, I could have annihilated them with a flick of my finger."
"You were that strong?"
"Then how do you compare to Human Emperor Xuanyuan?"
"..."
"If I were at my absolute peak, I would only be a tiny bit weaker than him."
Feng Xiaotian was immediately surprised. "Then you really are pretty strong."
Electrolux fell silent.
It should be just a tiny bit, right?
If the Human Emperor had used his full strength that day.
Human Emperor World.
Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Xiao Wu stood rooted to the spot, looking at Zhu Zhuqing helplessly, a jumble of emotions in her heart.
She did not know whether to persuade her or scold her.
Had she done anything wrong?
Zhu Zhuqing only wanted to break free of her fate and live for herself for once.
She had done nothing wrong.
Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes filled with sympathy as she gently tugged Chen Xin's sleeve.
Chen Xin gently pressed a hand against her shoulder.
"Don't worry."
"Observers cannot kill one another."
"Since she dared to do this, she most likely intends to stay here permanently and never return."
"That's right."
"Come to think of it, we should thank Zhu Zhuqing."
Ning Fengzhi let out a long sigh of relief and spoke softly with feeling.
Without Zhu Zhuqing's help, they probably would not have reached the Human Emperor World so smoothly.
"No."
"Even counting Zhu Zhuqing, only five people chose the Human Emperor World."
"But there are seven of us."
"That means someone else among us didn't choose Peerless Tang Sect."
Tang San looked at everyone, his expression frighteningly dark.
Dai Mubai shuddered and immediately raised his hand.
"Absolutely not me! I definitely voted for Peerless Tang Sect!"
"Me too!"
Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Xiao Wu, and the others raised their hands and spoke in succession.
Tang San's sharp gaze swept over them again and again.
But however closely he observed them, he could find no clues.
His gaze finally landed on Tang Hao and Grandmaster, passing over them with a glance.
His father and teacher were the people he trusted most.
They were also the ones most closely bound to him; when one prospered, they all prospered.
They could never betray him.
Who exactly was the traitor?
Silence spread.
Cracks were forming in the trust among Shrek's members.
"I suggest you go outside and think about it."
"This is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's territory. Get out!"
Chen Xin snorted coldly.
"You!"
They were filled with pent-up resentment, but dared not defy him.
They could only suppress their suspicions and anger and leave sullenly.
"Father, let's go first."
Tang San carefully supported the gravely injured Tang Hao, anger in his eyes.
The most important thing now was to heal his father and stabilize his injuries.
As for everything else.
He would settle those scores later!
Dai Mubai paused and looked back at the silent Zhu Zhuqing, a trace of reluctance hidden in his eyes.
He wanted to salvage things.
But he knew Tang San would not agree, and neither would Grandmaster.
Zhu Zhuqing could no longer come back.
Disappointment filled Dai Mubai's heart as he turned and left coldly.
Grandmaster stared at the Immortal Herbs on the ground, his eyes bloodshot.
They were his hope of changing his Martial Soul, yet now he had to hand them over to someone else.
I can't accept this.
It was all because of Zhu Zhuqing's selfish desires.
Chen Xin lowered his eyes; only Zhu Zhuqing remained before him.
"Zhu Qing, you can stay here."
Ning Rongrong came forward and spoke of her own accord.
"No need."
"I have my own path to follow. Thanks."
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head slightly, her retreating figure cold and aloof.
With that, she said no more and walked in the opposite direction from Tang San and the others.
Elsewhere.
Two people had already flown several kilometers away.
Dugu Bo held his granddaughter Dugu Yan in his arms, his expression anxious.
"Grandpa, why are we leaving in such a hurry?"
Dugu Yan could not help asking.
Dugu Bo looked embarrassed.
"Silly girl, the Human Emperor World is so powerful. What if they discover us?"
"Oh, I see. Then fly faster, Grandpa."
"I'm already flying very fast."
Dugu Bo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
He had just left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well earlier, never expecting the area designated by the sky screen to include him and Dugu Yan as well.
If he went to Peerless Tang Sect, given the influence Tang Hao and the others had there, things would certainly not go well for him.
So he had decisively chosen the Human Emperor World together with his granddaughter.
Fortunately, they had succeeded.
Human Emperor City, Expedition Hall.
Black jade paved the floor.
Inside the hall stood a black-haired man with a vertical eye on his forehead, his gaze shrewd.
A black-clad scout strode into the hall and dropped to one knee.
"Reporting to the hall master! The Soul Guidance Satellite has detected an anomaly! A complete area has appeared out of thin air in Sector 209 of the Douluo Continent, and signs of outside life have been detected!"
The man's eyes snapped open, his voice grave.
"Hmm? Bring up the panoramic surveillance!"
Space trembled.
An enormous screen of light instantly appeared in the center of the hall.
The image showed precisely where Tang San, Chen Xin, and the others had just been.
"Is-is this the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well?"
"No, this environment... this is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well from ten thousand years ago!"
The man's pupils contracted slightly, and shock surged through his heart.
This was far too bizarre!
"Immediately seal all spatial passages in Sector 209. No living being is permitted to enter or leave!"
"This matter is of grave importance. I will personally seek an audience with His Majesty the Human Emperor!"
He rose instantly, his voice icy.
His figure turned insubstantial and vanished from the hall.
Human Emperor City, Level 203.
An enormous artificial lake.
The lake shimmered.
Ji Xuanyuan and Gu Yuena sat facing each other by the lake, leisurely drinking tea.
Just moments earlier, Ji Xuanyuan had also told her about the sky screen.
"A world from ten thousand years ago?"
"Could someone truly accomplish such a feat of reversing time?"
Gu Yuena asked in surprise.
As the Silver Dragon King, she had been born from the Dragon God's division and possessed half his power.
But even the Dragon God or the Time Dragon King could not travel into the past or the future.
"Who knows?"
"The world is vast. Perhaps this Dragon God Realm is merely a grain in the boundless ocean."
Ji Xuanyuan gently turned his teacup between his fingertips, his tone calm and distant.
Gu Yuena's hand holding her tea trembled slightly.
A grain in the boundless ocean?
Then just how vast was this world?
Why did she suddenly feel that her God King level strength was so insignificant?
