Ancient Godly Monarch

The various immortal emperors of the Southern Phoenix Clan were here, standing below the Southern Phoenix Matriarch. Many of them were imposing characters and were extremely beautiful.

The bloodline of the Southern Phoenix Clan was simply too outstanding. All the maidens in their clan were blessed with absolute beauty. Nanfeng Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge were the most outstanding ones among the batch. Right now, the holy successor of this generation Nanfeng Yunxi, already had extraordinary strength. Not long ago, she had just broken through to the mid-stage of the immortal emperor realm while Nanfeng Shengge broke through to the initial-stage of the immortal emperor realm. Ever since the huge transformation that occurred in the immortal realms, the cultivation speeds of everyone seemed to have increased rapidly. The changes in situation resulted in pressure that acted upon everyone from the peak powers in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms.

However, right now, Nanfeng Yunxi’s expression was cold and solemn. The flawless and pure countenance of Nanfeng Shengge was no longer as perfect as in the past, there was a streak of grimness in her expression. Their gazes turned to the inheritance grounds. The aura from there made everyone understand that this incoming war, might be the war that determined their lives and deaths.

Everyone was quietly waiting, they didn’t know when the Ying Clan would launch their attacks. The Ying Clan was now still mobilizing their forces, wanting to destroy the Southern Phoenix Clan in one fell swoop, they were even prepared to seal off the entire Southern Phoenix Immortal City. After all, this was the only solution. If not, if too many members of the Southern Phoenix Clan managed to escape, things would prove extremely troublesome for them in the future.

Naturally, there was still a teleportation array inside the Southern Phoenix Clan which led to the Evergreen Immortal Empire. However, the shockwaves of this war affected the entire immortal realms, the Ying Clan naturally wouldn’t act alone. During these years, the Evergreen Immortal Empire had maintained their alliance with the Southern Phoenix Clan. The Ying Clan naturally would be on their guard against reinforcements from the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Unfortunately for the Southern Phoenix Clan, the Evergreen Immortal Empire themselves were in a situation so dire that they even found it hard to protect themselves.

Right now, the Evergreen Immortal Empire was a far cry from its glorious past. It was an empire on the verge of collapse.

In fact, even the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was on the verge of losing his life. Currently, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, who was already at the peak-stage of the immortal emperor realm, was experiencing the greatest danger ever to befall him in his entire life.

At the imperial palace of the empire, the walls surrounding it were all ruined and diapliated. Inside the Evergreen Emperor Palace, on the cultivation platform, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor sat there cross-legged. The ancient Evergreen Tree shimmered behind him, nourishing his body. Right now, his lifeforce kept withering and there was death energy radiating from him. His aura was extremely weak and the color of his face had turned dark.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor had recently received a grievous injury. His attackers were none other than Old Devil Duo Tian, the Violet Emperor and the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. Under a stroke of miraculous fate, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor actually also broke through to the peak-stage of the immortal emperor realm. He then began to launch attacks at the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and almost killed him with the assistance provided by Duo Tian and the Violet Emperor. Luckily, the White Emperor and Qing`er rushed here just in time and managed to save him. But even so, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was seriously injured. Now… he no longer had the strength to fight anymore.

Right now in front of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, the White Emperor was here. His aura was incomparably impressive, mystical and ethereal. Matriarch Ji had a solemn look on her face as her killing intent towered up into the sky. There was another person with a flawless countenance. Her skin was as fair as snow, her demeanor extremely cold. She stood there, resembling a statue of ice and she was none other than the White-Hair Killing Goddess, Evergreen Qing`er. If Qin Wentian saw her current demeanor, he most probably would find it tough to believe that this was his Qing`er.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor slowly opened his eyes as a greyish light flickered within, exuding an aura of death. He stared at the many people before him but his gaze finally landed on the white-haired Qing`er. He then gently spoke, “Qing`er, can you promise Father a thing?”

Qing`er shook her head. She knew what her father wanted to say. She also knew that it was impossible for her to agree to this matter.

“Silly child, all humans would surely have to face death at the end. However, father hopes you can live on and combine forces with your Uncle White and your Master as the three of you slaughter a path out. As long as you guys remain alive, there would always be hope.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor’s voice grew soft, he had already seen past the fact that he might die here. He knew that in this battle today, it was almost impossible for him to escape this calamity.

“I’ll exist only if our empire exists.” Qing`er’s voice was as glacial as ever, her state of heart wasn’t stirred at all by the gentleness in her father’s voice. It was like her heart was as hard as granite. It was impossible for her to abandon the Evergreen Immortal Empire and abandon her father.

“Qing`er…!” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor called out.

“Father, I’m sorry.” Qing`er spoke with resolve. She turned her gaze to a direction where there was a beauty whose looks were capable of toppling empires.

“Qingcheng, if there’s an opportunity, I’ll send you away from here.” Qing`er softly spoke. Mo Qingcheng smiled and shook her head, “If you are here, I will be here with you as well.”

“You have to wait for him.” Evergreen Qing`er stared at Mo Qingcheng.

Mo Qingcheng’s body trembled slightly. She naturally knew who Qing`er was referring to. Her beautiful gaze froze as she mumbled, “It has been so many years and there’s no news at all. Would we be able to live long enough to wait for him to return?”

“He will definitely come back.” Qing`er determinedly spoke. However, Mo Qingcheng continued to shake her head. A beautiful smile appeared on her face, “During these years, it has been elder sister Qing`er taking care of me. If we somehow can wait for his return, we will do so together. If he cannot make it back in time. That means that that’s our fate.”

When the White Emperor heard their conversation. He glanced up at the heavens and mumbled, “The stars of the astral river are shifting, the universe is rotating. Your lives are not fated to end here. He will return, and he should already be near.”

When the Evergreen Immortal Emperor heard the White Emperor’s words, he shook his head and laughed, “Even if he is returning here, would he make it in time?”

Other than the few of them, none of the others in the surroundings understood their conversation. During the war that year in the past, everyone had witnessed Qin Wentian being killed. Qin Wentian had died for sure, but why are these people so sure that Qin Wentian was still alive?

Maybe, because they cared too much, they’d rather choose to believe that Qin Wentian wasn’t dead?

“Evergreen, it’s time for you to die. Just come out and accept it.” Outside the imperial palace, a unfamiliar voice rang out, echoing through the air. Qing`er’s gaze turned cold, she stared at that direction, her icy gaze seemingly capable of penetrating through space as her vision locked onto the person who spoke. Her white hair fluttered without wind as her killing intent surged forth.

“Evergreen Qing`er, although your hair has turned white, it actually adds flavor to your beauty, causing my heart to tremble in anticipation. After the Evergreen Immortal Empire is destroyed, you, Mo Qingcheng and Glaze, shall be subdued by me and serve as my playthings forever. HAHAHA!” The person outside insulted, his words clearly intent on further enraging Qing`er.

The grand protective formation of the Evergreen Immortal Empire was activated and right now, all of them were hiding in it. This formation wasn’t easy to break and the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor and the others had already gone off to seek more experts to be their reinforcements. Their plan was to break through with force and abduct the three beauties.

Although the words spoken by this immortal emperor were a psychological attack, he might truly mean to do this. The White-Hair Killing Goddess, Evergreen Qing`er, was an exceptional beauty. Her white hair even increased her charm somewhat. If he could subdue her and make her serve him, it would simply be an unimaginable joy. It was said that even the Old Devil Duo Tian had the same thoughts as well.

Furthermore, with regards to Mo Qingcheng and Princess Glaze, which of the two of them also weren’t supreme beauties?

Qing`er’s face was ice cold. She stretched out her jade-like hands as emperor light flashed. Terrifying law fluctuations radiated from her. As her fingers pierced forth, a spatial passageway opened up before her. That immortal emperor seemed to have sensed something. His countenance changed as he rapidly retreated.

But at this moment, a golden lotus appeared from the void, directly developing him directly. That immortal emperor didn’t have time to react as the spatial storm in the lotus tore him to pieces. Only his screams of misery rang out. However, even the sounds of his screams completely vanished after just a few moments.

The other people in the surroundings had terror in their expressions. A bright beam of light than sliced over, severing the lotus apart but everything was already too late. That poor immortal emperor no longer existed.

The person who unleashed the sword strike was the Paragon Sword Emperor. His eyes were like sharp swords as he stared at that white-haired figure through the spatial passageway.

The title of the White-Hair Killing God was well deserved indeed. That immortal emperor who spoke earlier was just at the initial level. He even dared to antagonize Qing`er? He was simply courting death.

The Skymist Immortal Emperor and the Taihua Immortal Emperor also arrived at the Paragon Sword Emperor’s side. The three powers under their control, were the same as the Evergreen Immortal Empire, all of them were in the eastern regions. During the war that year, the White Emperor snuck into each of their nests while they were fighting against the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Right now, the states of the Skymist immortal Empire, the Taihua Immortal Dynasty and the Paragon Sword Sect all weren’t any better than the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Other than some peak characters, the vast majority of their forces had died. Their battle against the Evergreen Immortal Empire had never ceased from back then.

This time around, Old Devil Duo Tian worked together with the Violet Emperor and Eastern Sage to heavily injure the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. As for them, they were supposed to ally with the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire to completely crush the remnant forces of the Evergreen Immortal Empire and their allies. On the other side, after the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was injured, the Violet Emperor, Eastern Sage and some others had already gone on ahead to deal with Jun Mengchen and his companions.

The operation this time around was a collective effort, they were moving against the Evergreen Immortal Empire and the Southern Phoenix Clan simultaneously, wanting to finish them all in a single stroke.

But at this moment, a resplendent beam of light shot down from the sky. A terrifying immortal army appeared and the person in the lead was none other than the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor. He stood arrogantly in the air with a supreme divine weapon behind his back. A moment later, the divine weapon erupted forth with a startling light.

“BREAK!” The Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor didn’t waste words. The divine weapon behind him exuded an ancient will which manifested countless divine weapons that frenziedly launched attacks at the golden-colored protective grand formation.

Only to see Qing`er stepping forward, moving above the tattered walls as her white hair fluttered in the wind. An intense killing intent could be seen gleaming in her eyes.

She inclined her head and stared up at the skies. The silhouette of a magnificent figure appeared in her mind. At this moment, the coldness in her eyes suddenly vanished, replaced by a smile of warmth and beauty.

If she died in this battle, their fate of this lifetime would end. For all the regrets in this life, let them all be made up for in the next, if there truly is such a thing as reincarnation.

“If there’s a next lifetime, I’m still willing to be your wife…” Qing`er whispered softly as she retracted her gaze. When she cast her glance at the direction of the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor, her gaze once again became incomparably cold.

…

In the eastern regions, in a city within the Evergreen Immortal Empire, bright beams of light suddenly cascaded down from the sky. At this instant, countless people glanced upwards. Rumbling sounds echoed as the great earth trembled, causing clouds of dust to rise up.

Everyone turned their gazes over only to see a group of experts suddenly appearing there. Each of them had extraordinary demeanors and unfathomably powerful auras.

A random immortal emperor passed by. His immortal sense extended out in curiosity and when he felt the cultivation bases of these people, a look of terror flashed on his face. After that, he trembled as disbelief flickered in his eyes.

They were actually all immortal emperors. How can this be possible…?

Amidst the commotion, a white-robed figure slowly floated up in the air. His immortal sense gushed forth and he instantly knew his current location. He drew in a deep breath as the light in his eyes shone with an incomparable resplendent brightness.

Azure Mystic, I’m back!
