Chapter 786 - 729: When There Is No Justice in Central Continent, Emperor Han Must Rise

Three streaks of light hurried towards a location without pause, until they dove beneath the sea and found a solitary ship in a hidden area teeming with dark reefs.

After passing through the barrier and stepping onto the deck, they quickly hurried inside the cabin.

Yet, upon entering, the three were dumbfounded.

Wasn’t Han Yu just lying there straight and still!

Just as the three were in a daze, a small hand suddenly emerged from Han Yu’s forehead.

The scene looked as shocking as it could possibly be.

In an instant, the already confused three were left dumbstruck, as the small hand even mischievously beckoned in their direction with a finger.

Was it asking them to come over?

The three exchanged glances, then slowly approached as they gathered their emotions.

At this moment, the small hand suddenly retracted and, when it reappeared, it held two pills.

Indeed, Han Yu still hadn’t woken up, the Artifact Spirit was already extremely anxious, and yet that stupid Ping was still being childish, spitting out the pills as usual.

After delivering two pills, the Artifact Spirit waited another day, but finally couldn’t wait any longer, so it had to use the token to summon help again.

The three looked at the two pills in the small hand with indescribable expressions. Although they had already guessed, it still felt incredibly strange once they were presented.

While they were still stunned, the Artifact Spirit, rather impatiently, urged them.

"Hurry up and take them, use them quickly."

What kind of people are these? Don’t they know I don’t want to show my face?

Quan Xiaotong approached with a complex expression, taking the pills from the small hand, after which the Artifact Spirit simply withdrew, leaving no further sign of activity.

The scene was momentarily eerie, with the Artifact Spirit silent in the Sea of Consciousness and the three speechless outside.

Just as the Artifact Spirit was puzzled that these three guys hadn’t left, Quan Xiaotong’s mouth twitched slightly.

What is this?

No process? Not explaining the effects or downsides of the pills, who in their right mind would just take them without knowing!

Helpless, Quan Xiaotong had no choice but to reluctantly speak, "Could you please explain the effects and side effects of these pills?"

At the very least, give us the names so we can figure it out ourselves!

The Artifact Spirit frowned, feeling that this group outside was extremely bothersome, always needing explanations for the pills’ effects.

The problem was, it didn’t know how! This was always Han Yu’s job.

But since Quan Xiaotong had asked, it couldn’t refuse such a simple request!

Besides, this was also about consuming pills for Han Yu’s sake.

Looking troubled, it emerged, its face darkened, and then it cutely extended a small hand.

"Give it here."

Turning around, it asked for the pills back, then its little face suddenly drew serious, truly bearing some of Han Yu’s demeanor.

In one hand, it held the pills, turning its back, and began speaking slowly.

Cause and Effect Soul Entanglement Pill: The user gains the ability of cause and effect after ingestion, seeing the lines of cause and effect of all things, predicting the outcomes of actions. The prediction process incurs corresponding backlash based on different cause and effect interactions. Side Effect: Successfully predicting the cause and effect will make the user a part of it, forcing them to participate. Imprint: Observe its cause, become its effect!

Time-Stealing Life Pill: The user gains the life-stealing ability after ingestion, temporarily reversing the time of ten breaths. Side Effect: Reversing ten breaths, lifespan is reduced by ten years. Imprint: Steal time, life as payment!

Hiss!

The recent pills have been increasingly powerful; even with mental preparation, the three still gasped in unison.

With the introduction of cause and effect abilities, this pill, despite its terrifying side effects, is something Su Xingxing would absolutely savor.

This is what these cultivators have been pursuing all their lives.

It’s now within reach, and if it were released, it would probably spark a mad scramble.

Life-Stealing Pill...

The three exchanged looks; this pill, when used correctly, could be terrifying.

If used correctly, reversing ten breaths could turn defeat into victory, even playing a crucial role in some important situations.

But likewise, the imprints of both pills seem to suggest a grim outcome.

On the side, the Artifact Spirit coughed twice, mimicking Han Yu’s tone, "Take the pill with no regrets!"

But it was an awkward imitation, making people want to laugh.

Nevertheless, Quan Xiaotong solemnly nodded in response, as it indeed should be—take the pill with no regrets.

"So, he still can’t wake up?"

After carefully taking back the pills, Quan Xiaotong stored them separately as a precaution, before speaking with furrowed brows.

This time, the unconscious period was notably longer, which inevitably made them worry.

Sometimes, looking at Han Yu’s slightly immature face, Quan Xiaotong wondered if the safety of the Central Continent should really rest on such a young person.

"Do you think, could he be too young?"

Quan Xiaotong suddenly spoke to the two beside him.

Xia Wuyou was silent for a moment but soon shook his head, "You must understand, he is now the undisputed number one person in the Central Continent, even ranking among the top in both factions."

Young?

"It is precisely the young who should bury those millennia-old, decayed cultivators."

Wang Ye couldn’t resist rubbing his wine gourd, taking a sip, and shaking his head, "If the Central Continent can survive this catastrophe, you should think about how the entire Central Continent will repay this favor!"

He couldn’t help but stroke his stubble; though Han Yu was young, the things he accomplished were genuine.

Not to mention the future, even now, the debt the Central Continent owes him is unfathomable.

"If this kid ever gets enlightened, controlling the Central Continent would just be a matter of saying it."

"You probably don’t know how high this kid’s prestige is among the cultivators below!"

This, the two truly didn’t know, but they were sure of his prestige.

Just Han Yu charging into the Eastern Territory, battling Yama Hall alone, is an image that would likely forever linger in the minds of the despairing Central Continent cultivators, right?

"It’s said the cultivators below have started a saying."

Wang Ye suddenly smiled mysteriously and spoke quietly.

What saying?

The two were quite curious, patiently waiting for an explanation.

Wang Ye didn’t tease further, mimicking the disciples’ tone he said.

"The Central Continent has no Heavenly Dao, Han Yu should be the Emperor!"

Damn!

Xia Wuyou’s expression changed drastically, cursing aloud. His first reaction was that someone was causing trouble.

Using the title of emperor might be acceptable, as mortal emperors might not be able to manage it.

But equating to the heavens, Emperor of the Heavens?

What kind of ridiculous title is this?

But it was undeniable, just hearing this name felt like something was about to happen.

Quan Xiaotong’s face slightly darkened; if even Xia Wuyou was suspecting, he would suspect even more.

"Was it investigated?"

His first thought was, could it be someone in the Central Continent intending to flatter the young man to his destruction?

Who had something wrong with their head to think of setting up Han Yu under such circumstances?

The more he thought about it, the more Quan Xiaotong felt an inexplicable fury wanting to erupt.

The young man inside was still lying there unconscious, and yet someone was already trying to stir trouble.

Wang Ye, however, laughed wryly, smiling, "You think we eat for nothing?"

Investigate, how could we not!

Especially Ling Wuce, who investigated the most thoroughly, capturing everyone who uttered this sentence.

"And guess what?"

"Come on, don’t leave us hanging!"

Xia Wuyou looked impatient, what kind of riddle was he trying to play, having no sense of timing.

Wang Ye shook his head, "It was truly spontaneous among the disciples."

The Central Continent suffered such great damage, the Heavenly Dao remained indifferent, those who came forward to save the day were not unnoticed.

"This title is too eerie, don’t they know to be reverent?"

Xia Wuyou expressed concern, as the cause and effect of the Central Continent having no Heavenly Dao were too significant.

"Tsk tsk, you were the loudest in accusing the Heavenly Dao of being blind that day."

Wang Ye sneered repeatedly, mockingly speaking.

The fact that the Heavenly Dao in the Central Continent was blind was true, and Han Yu’s efforts to save it were also true.

"The truth fears no one speaking, I think it’s quite fitting."

Quan Xiaotong, after listening quietly, couldn’t help but glance towards the cabin.

"The title of Emperor of the Heavens is unprecedented and inevitably tainted with cause and effect. This matter ends here; don’t let them fool around, Han Yu is troubled enough, don’t add to it."

After speaking, he sighed slightly, "If... if there indeed comes a day when the Central Continent sees the light again, what harm is there in offering him as the Emperor of the Heavens?"
