Su Yu stood calmly in the Void, looking at Heavenly Peng King, the two facing off.

Finally, the Old Peng King activated his magic with both hands, put away the incomplete Saint Weapon, glanced at Su Yu with a complicated look in his eyes, it was unclear whether he was thinking of his youth or something else.

He sighed, his once upright posture slightly bent, and said with some emotion, "The younger generation is truly formidable! With the princess finding such a husband, the revival of the Green Lotus Lineage is hopeful!"

Old Peng King turned to the Heavenly Bat King and the Azure Lion King and said, " Azure Peng King and White Elephant King, you deserve to die for bullying the descendants of the Demon Emperor. Let this matter end here!"

After saying this, he led his subordinates across the Void and left this place.

The Heavenly Bat King's purple eyes emitted a mysterious halo. He glanced at Su Yu and then disappeared into the Void. His subordinates also departed on Divine Rainbow.

The Azure Lion King then said solemnly, "Your Highness is truly awe-inspiring. I humbly admit defeat. In the midst of our sparring just now, I inadvertently offended Your Highness. I hope Your Highness will forgive me!"

Su Yu glanced at him wistfully. He was quite a character indeed!

He smiled finally and vanished into the Void.

As soon as Su Yu left, the Azure Lion King transformed back into his Lifetime and unparalleled demon king. He turned around, his azure eyes sharp as blades, and said to his subordinates with overwhelming authority, "Quickly prepare a generous gift to present to Princess Green Lotus!"

The demon general, dressed in jet-black battle armor, respectfully agreed.

The Xuanyuan Sect was completely silent. No Demon Clan dared to approach the main hall. The Green Lotus King had returned from the Northern Region and, as an elder of the Chaos Palace, his strength and power overwhelmed all the demons.

A ripple appeared in the Void, and array patterns spread out. A man in white robes walked out of the Void. He seemed to sense something, and a smile appeared on his lips as he walked towards the main hall.

The moonlight, like water, gently bathed the peach grove, while countless stars adorned the sky, creating an unparalleled beauty.

At this moment, Green Lotus King Yan Li was kneeling before Su Yu, filled with fear.

Su Yu looked at Yan Li below the steps. Yan Li was now sealed by chains of dark light, and her body's Immortal Platform was also locked. The death aura that had been sealed was now spreading out again, and black energy was emanating from her body. Death aura also lingered in her Immortal Platform.

Su Yu toyed with the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon in his hand, and said to Yan Li in a cold voice, " Yan Li, do you have anything to say?"

"Your Highness, spare my life! I only..."

Su Yu looked coldly at Yan Li. He had just killed the Azure Peng King and the White Elephant King when he returned and encountered Yan Li asking about Yan Ruyu Green Lotus Emperor Weapon.

All of this was within his expectations; the Azure Flood Dragon King of the Northern Region Chaos Palace had informed him of everything long ago.

This old bastard secretly made a deal with the Jade Lake Sacred Land for the sake of the Azure Emperor's mausoleum, using the Jade Lake Sacred Land's Domain Gate to cross from the Northern Region to the Southern Region.

Chapter 87 Returning Home

Su Yu stood up from the jade throne and walked to Yan Li's side. His plain white robe with gold trim fell down, and Yan Li, who was kneeling on the ground, was sweating profusely and did not dare to look Su Yu in the eye.

"You think you can get rid of the Chaos Palace like this? Foolish! You have no idea of the power of the Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon. With your weak bloodline, even the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon doesn't recognize you."

Yan Li's face was ashen, and he seemed to have given up hope on the surface, but he seemed to still be struggling in his heart, silently condensing the Green Lotus True Blood in his body, wanting to call back the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon.

"Your Highness..."

At this moment, the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon in Su Yu's hand reacted. An incomparably verdant azure Green Lotus emitted specks of green light, engraved with various imperial divine patterns, exuding an ancient charm. Azure Green Lotus imprints flowed from the green veins of the Green Lotus leaves, shimmering with light.

Enveloped in emerald mist and swirling light, the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon trembled slightly, containing a terrifying aura that seemed to be drawing something, like a real living being, causing a sense of unease. It bathed the entire hall in a vibrant green light, shimmering and dazzling.

Su Yu looked at the azure Green Lotus Emperor Weapon in his hand, which was showing unusual activity. With a thought, he activated the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar in his Immortal Platform with his primordial spirit power. Strands of dark light fell from the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar, and instantly, the unusual activity of the Green Lotus was covered by the dark light. It was like a jade Green Lotus, no longer emitting extreme Dao energy.

Yan Li collapsed to the ground, looking utterly disheveled. As the Green Lotus True Blood condensed, his death aura intensified, making him resemble an old man on his deathbed.

His withered body lay sprawled, his pale hair disheveled and covering the bluestone. Utter despair filled his heart as he bitterly thought, "The only thing capable of suppressing an Emperor Weapon is another Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon..."

"As expected of a descendant of the Azure Emperor, even at the very end he was thinking about the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon!"

Su Yu sighed; he hadn't expected the other party to put up such a desperate struggle.

Originally, he had hoped to let Yan Ruyu live a peaceful and quiet life, but now he had no choice but to take action.

It seems that Yan Li still wants to be the Green Lotus King of the Chaos Palace, to contribute to the Chaos Palace, and doesn't want to retire alone. I can only fulfill his wish.

Su Yu's gaze was sharp as lightning. He didn't want to say anything more to Yan Li. He intertwined his two hands and cast a divine spell, activating the Deity-Deliverance Art.

Brilliant divine light emanated from Su Yu's Su Yu, shimmering and transforming into a translucent and dazzling divine halo around him. Finally, it materialized behind him into a sacred deity. The deity had only a phantom form and no real appearance, and showers of light fell upon it, making it incomparably radiant.

As he chanted each Dao Scripture, Su Yu's aura became increasingly sacred.

The air inside the palace seemed to freeze. Yan Li, lying on the ground, looked utterly terrified. He recognized the secret technique—the infamous Deity-Deliverance Art of the Qin Sect of the Central Continent.

"Your Highness, spare my life!"

But it was too late by then; Su Yu could only silently activate the Deity-Deliverance Art.

Although he tried desperately to resist, as the divine light slowly expanded, it was all over. Without the Emperor Weapon to seal the death energy, he was not even as good as the First Immortal Demon General and could not stop Su Yu's salvation.

Su Yu looked at Yan Li, whose expression was extremely respectful, and fell silent. Yan Ruyu was on his side, and had even entrusted him with the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon...

However, he didn't regret it. Yan Li dared to collude with the Jade Lake Sacred Land in the Northern Region and use Domain Gate to rush to the Southern Region. He should have thought of this consequence when he did it. Colluding with the Supreme Holy Land and betraying the Chaos Palace...

After dealing with the internal troubles, Su Yu carefully examined the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon in his hand. Yan Li, a descendant with extremely thin imperial blood, could not truly revive the Emperor Weapon. However, the Green Lotus mark on Yan Ruyu's body was different. After the two of them got together, Su Yu had some guesses about that Green Lotus mark.

If you don't count the Green Lotus mark, Yan Ruyu's imperial blood concentration isn't very high, at most it's the blood of a tenth-generation emperor. However, if you count the Green Lotus mark, it's different. When Su Yu captured the Demon Emperor's Heart before, the Green Lotus imperial blood and the Green Lotus mark in the Emperor's Heart were very similar.

Without his interference, even if the Azure Emperor hadn't released the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon, as Yan Ruyu grew, that Green Lotus imprint would eventually be refined by her, becoming comparable to a drop of ancestral blood, and her bloodline would be comparable to the descendants of the Great Emperor within three generations.

All of this unfolded as if it were a pre-written script. Nourished by the Demon Emperor's Heart and the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon, the Green Lotus Lineage, which had been declining for ten thousand years, saw the emergence of a descendant comparable to an Ancient Emperor princess in this golden age.

The Desolate Antiquity Ji Family has a Ji Zi, the son of the Void Emperor. The Jade Lake Sacred Land has a Female Saint Spirit who is about to reach the Great Perfection. Even the Desolate Ancient Jiang Family, although they do not have a son of the Great Emperor, has a Jiang Yifei whose bloodline has returned to its ancestral form. Most of the Extreme Dao Supreme in this Lifetime have left themselves a backup plan!

This Lifetime has seen the emergence of many Ancient Emperor Ancient Emperor, and some have even perished. It's truly lamentable!

He unsealed the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon and handed it to Yan Li. Yan Li, who had been converted, Yan Li accepted the Emperor Weapon. The thin Green Lotus Emperor Blood in his body was drawn together with the Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon. He used the Emperor Blood to slightly refine the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon. His originally aged face was nourished by the Emperor Weapon, and the death aura on his body gradually disappeared, and his aura slowly became stronger.

Su Yu flicked his right hand, handing him a jade bottle. Then, waving his hand, he said, "Step back and recover from your injuries. From now on, you will protect Yu'er."

As Yan Li took her leave, Su Yu rubbed his temples, and Yan Ruyu slowly walked over carrying a tray of wine pots, standing behind him.

She looked to be eighteen or nineteen years old, with unparalleled beauty, exquisite features, stunning looks, and a shapely, jade-like body. She seemed flawless, like the most Perfect World work of art created by heaven, standing there.

A pair of fair and flawless jade hands moved slightly, poured a glass of wine and placed it on the jade table, then gently placed both hands on Su Yu's shoulders.

Su Yu drank the jade liquor in one gulp, then relaxed his head and leaned back, touching something soft, but it did not stir any emotion in his heart.

He didn't turn to look at Yan Ruyu, but calmly asked, "Will you hate me?"

Yan Ruyu did not answer, but walked up to Su Yu, glanced at Su Yu with her beautiful eyes, and then kissed him on the lips. Su Yu Su Yu at her beautiful face and stared directly into Yan Ruyu eyes.

However, Yan Ruyu kept her eyes tightly closed. Her eyelashes were long, her eyes were deep and poetic, and she seemed to possess the wisdom of heaven and earth. Her appearance was exquisite. Just as Su Yu was somewhat captivated by her beauty, he felt a fragrant breeze and a sense of loss washed over him.

Yan Ruyu silently bent down, and as she did so, a crystalline luster flowed through her skin, and her plain dress swayed slightly.

A graceful figure swept by.

The night outside the palace was as still as water!

The tender green peach trees swayed their pale pink petals in the breeze, and this world was once again enveloped in tranquility.

Chapter 88 Bronze Ring

The Jin Kingdom in the Southern Region is just a small country, but it has a certain reputation throughout the Eastern Wasteland. It is known to cultivators entirely because of a Fire Domain within its territory.

People don't know why the Fire Domain never goes out. From Desolate Antiquity to the present, it has burned for countless ages, and its existence is difficult to say.

All that is known is that this Fire Domain has been recorded in ancient texts of cultivators since the distant past, and the flames still burn brightly to this day.

This vast space was entirely red, devoid of any vegetation, yet there was no magma beneath the ground, no substance to support the fire, only flames that burned for an inexplicable time, seemingly impossible to extinguish.

The Fire Domain that ordinary cultivators dare not approach, but Supreme Peak cultivators will definitely choose it as their first choice when refining weapons. The flames here possess a mysterious power that can help the weapon take shape and imprint the "Dao" and "Principle" upon it.

Of course, the Fire Domain is not a peaceful place. It is fine when it is quiet, but when the flames are raging and sweeping across the sky, it is extremely dangerous, and even Great Power have to retreat.

There are many records about this place. The oldest historical records even mention "immortals" and Desolate Pagoda. However, they are only mentioned briefly and are quite vague and unclear.

At this moment, the King of the Jin Kingdom personally arrived at the Fire Domain, but could only wait on the outermost edge, chatting happily with a young man. Behind him, the sky was filled with densely packed figures, with a large number of cultivators standing in the sky.

On the inner side of the Fire Domain, three jade chariots stopped in the sky, each carrying a magnificent and extraordinary beast. The scales on their bodies and the jade on the chariots complemented each other, making them incredibly dazzling.

This is the Desolate Antiquity Ji Family. Such a big commotion is all because a prominent figure from the Ji Family went to the Fire Domain to refine weapons.

The ruler of the Jin Kingdom couldn't even get an audience with that important figure, yet an ordinary descendant of the Ji Family could be ranked alongside the ruler of the same state. Perhaps the ruler was even more envious, for the imperial Dao Scripture were incredibly precious.

The Desolate Ancient Family were so extraordinary that these mortal kingdoms were nothing but ants in their eyes. They were truly Immortal of the Foreign Realm divine dynasties that would endure forever in the world!

The Ji Family is high above, standing tall in the clouds, requiring people to look up to them, and no one dares to defy them.

Within the vast Fire Domain, the sixth Fire Domain, named Purple Qi Comes from the East, is where the flames are not like raging fire, but rather like flowing purple mist, creating a hazy atmosphere.

This is a purple world, without flames, only flowing purple mist, hazy and indistinct, but the temperature is terrifyingly high.

"Bang."

With a deafening roar, the space was ripped open, and a massive spatial rift appeared within the bright Fire Domain, spreading for countless miles. Two figures descended upon this layer of Fire Domain like Heavenly God.

Both of them merged with the Void Great Dao, like a desolate universe or an endless starry sky, neither born nor dying, giving people a sense of nothingness and Eternal, as if standing under a lonely night sky, ignoring the purple flames around them, like gods.

One of them had long, black hair and an incredibly handsome face. His expression was one of indifference and even weariness. He was enveloped in a layer of Chaos light, which was crystal clear and dazzling. It seemed that a real little world was hidden in the divine light, appearing and disappearing.

He glanced outside and asked the old man in black robes beside him, "Who are the Ji Family members outside?"

The Eighth Ancestor of the Ji Family took out a blue wooden box. It was made of some kind of wood, emitted a pleasant fragrance, and was very exquisite and beautiful.

"That's the fourth son of the Ji Family, Ji Yanzhi's younger brother, but he hasn't yet reached the Immortal Platform Second Heaven."

Su Yu paid no attention to the Half-Step Great Power from the Ji Family. He reached out and took the wooden box, then opened it. Sure enough, a ring that looked like it was made of ordinary bronze lay quietly on the blue silk scarf. The bronze ring was very simple and crudely made, not exquisite or beautiful.

This is a Bronze Ring; though ordinary, it holds extraordinary significance.

Su Yu gently placed the ring in his palm, then summoned the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar. The Devouring Heaven Demon Jar floated in the Void, its dark light descending and releasing a wisp of extreme aura. The originally overwhelming purple mist was shaken by this extreme aura, and the purple energy in this space left the two of them on its own.

The ring, which had originally looked like ordinary bronze, suddenly began to emit soft light, exuding an indescribable charm. Strands of celestial radiance shot out, echoing the dark light emanating from the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar.

"It seems to be the Bronze Ring that Ji Ziyue has."

Su Yu was reassured. Although the Eighth Ancestor of the Ji Family would never betray him, this Bronze Ring was far too important. It was a token of love from the Empress, and he had to ensure its authenticity.

This Bronze Ring was originally made by the Empress's brother from a piece of ordinary bronze, but it was the most beloved item of the Ruthless Great Emperor. She wore it for many years, and it received the nourishment of the Great Emperor's divinity, and it may also have been a spiritual sustenance for her, thus transforming into a rare treasure.

He closed the wooden box and placed it into the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar. He thought it might come in handy later. Even if it didn't, it would be good to have some connection with the Empress, making him more worthy of the title of Empress's successor.

Su Yu glanced at the dense purple mist not far away and said to the Eighth Ancestor of the Ji Family, "This was done well, but didn't that girl Ji Ziyue notice anything? She has Origin Spirit Body and is particularly sensitive to such mystical things."
