Chapter 962: Great Emperor Conference

The great war has ended, yet the tumult of this battle is like a Category 18 storm, swiftly sweeping across the entire Central Plains.

The nineteenth prince and the Imperial Son Zhong Kui faced off in a duel of life and death, resulting in the death of Zhong Kui.

The New Demon-Slaying Alliance broke faith and acted treacherously, exposing the nineteenth prince as the Black Demon, who then counter-killed ten saints.

Four Great Emperors emerged, forming a scheme against the Flying Immortal Great Emperor, and ultimately two perished and two fled.

This series of events is more dramatic than any play and can be likened to fantasy tales.

However, all these events truly occurred, with the sunken day of King Chu Jiang and the Dugu Great Emperor illuminating the entire Central Plains, witnessed by innumerable beings.

As a result, the entire Central Plains was stirred to a boil.

“So the two Great Emperors who fell were King Chu Jiang and Dugu Great Emperor, and yet the Flying Immortal Great Emperor alone was able to kill them. Just how powerful is the Flying Immortal Great Emperor?”

“Heavenly Sword Dynasty is indeed a long-established immortal force with a heritage spanning millennia. Even with just one Flying Immortal Great Emperor, they’re unmatched by other immortal forces. One person can kill two Great Emperors, proving that Flying Immortal Great Emperor’s strength far exceeds that of King Chu Jiang and Dugu Great Emperor.”

“Indeed, the nineteenth prince should not be underestimated either, for he publicly killed the Imperial Son Zhong Kui and counter-killed ten saints. The Heavenly Sword Dynasty also has a Heavenly Sword Crown Prince, such a lineup is indeed terrifying.”

Everyone was shaken and discussions were rife across regions, all astounded by this battle.

A great war, ignited by Su Han, ultimately evolved into a battle of Great Emperors, resulting in the demise of two Great Emperors.

Such large-scale battle has not occurred since the King Yama’s Palace almost obliterated the Nangong Imperial Clan a century ago, and even then, there weren’t as many Great Emperors involved, with only the previous Nangong Great Emperor perishing.

The Heavenly Sword Dynasty, the nineteenth prince, and Flying Immortal Great Emperor are the terms most frequently discussed by people.

Among them, the capability of the Flying Immortal Great Emperor is the most debated.

The Flying Immortal Great Emperor has not taken action for a long time; the last incident was severing one of King Chu Jiang’s arms, which wasn’t a real battle of Great Emperors. People’s perception of his might remains in the past.

Yet this time, with one against two, and successfully counter-killing, this proves his immense strength, possibly pushing him from a top ten ranking into the top five.

“Dugu Great Emperor has fallen; the Dugu Imperial Clan is likely to decline, possibly even face the risk of extermination.”

“King Chu Jiang has also perished, but King Yama’s Palace still has Qing Guangwang, at most weakened but not in danger of being annihilated. However, after this battle, Qing Guangwang must be cautious, for although his might is formidable, the Flying Immortal Great Emperor’s strength now rivals his.”

“The demise of two Great Emperors is of utmost significance, not knowing if there will be further major actions ahead. This time involved six immortal forces, even the Nangong Imperial Clan joined in.”

Now, the Flying Immortal Great Emperor returned with Su Han to the Heavenly Sword Dynasty, while the Nangong Great Emperor and Wheel-Turning King departed, and Chu Family Great Emperor and Yin Yang Great Emperor returned to their respective territories, activating the Emperor Formation to prevent pursuit by Flying Immortal Great Emperor.

Though serenity reigns on the surface, no one knows how things will develop, given the involvement of too many Great Emperors and immortal forces this time.

But there is more than one Great Emperor in Central Plains, and more than one immortal force. In addition, the covenant revered by all Great Emperor realm experts across the Desolate Heavenly Ancient Realm is in place. Now that the battle is over, this covenant may have to come into play.

As for the outcome, people can only wait.

At this moment, within a certain special Spiritual Space, streams of powerful Divine Sense began to penetrate.

These Divine Sense originated from Great Emperor realm experts in the Desolate Heavenly Ancient Realm, from the Eastern Region as well as the Central Plains, and also from the other Three Domains and Four Seas.

Whenever major events occur, Great Emperors convene in this Spiritual Space to communicate, discuss, and decide.

Divine Sense manifested, descending all around, though not all Great Emperors were present, with some unwilling to attend or delayed by affairs, which is normal, but essentially more than half of the Great Emperors would participate.

“Ladies and gentlemen, today we convene a Great Emperor conference aimed at discussing the adjudication of the Battle of Great Name Lake!”

A commanding voice first spoke, presiding over this Great Emperor meeting.

The news of the Battle of Great Name Lake had spread, known by all in the Central Plains, and while ordinary martial artists in the other Three Domains and Four Seas may be unaware, Great Emperor realm experts have heard of it, and according to the Great Emperor covenant, today is the day to discuss adjudication methods.

“Flying Immortal Great Emperor disregarded the covenant, audaciously killing King Chu Jiang and Dugu Great Emperor. I propose we execute him immediately!”

A cold and sinister voice arose, targeting the Flying Immortal Great Emperor, aiming to use the power of the Great Emperor covenant to resolve the nuisance posed by the Flying Immortal Great Emperor.

“Qing Guangwang, dare to challenge death, then let’s duel; though my sword may not be sharp, it’s sufficient to cut you down!”

The Divine Sense of the Flying Immortal Great Emperor was also present. At this moment, he sneered, directly confronting Qing Guangwang who had just spoken.

“You are parties involved; you aren’t permitted to give opinions!”

The commanding voice rang once more, causing Qing Guangwang and the Flying Immortal Great Emperor to cease their arguments, evidently the speaker’s strength and status were exceedingly high, deterring them both.

“Although my understanding of the battle is limited, I also perceive that it was a scheme set by King Yama’s Palace and others, albeit a failed one resulting in the death of two Great Emperors. However, I believe both parties were at fault; if punishment is to be meted out, it must be to both parties, lest the consensus be unsatisfied.”

A familiar voice sounded, surprisingly from Emperor Liu of the Ancient Liu Family.

“Liu Family’s words are apt. This time both parties have erred; my suggestion is joint punishment, and considering stability, further conflict must not be incited, or else we will intervene!”

Another Great Emperor spoke, endorsing Emperor Liu’s proposal, and additionally demanding stability, evidently a Great Emperor from the Central Plains.

If Heavenly Sword Dynasty and King Yama’s Palace and other immortal forces engage in war, it will impact the entire Central Plains, which is undesirable.

“In that case, both parties are to be grounded for ten years, and the matter of this battle ends here; further conflict must not be incited.”

The commanding voice finally made a decision, and although Qing Guangwang and the Flying Immortal Great Emperor were dissatisfied with the punishment, they could only accept it, or else the entire Great Emperor covenant would target them.

“What about the Black Demon?”

Qing Guangwang spoke again, setting sights on Su Han.

“The Great Emperor covenant only restraints martial artists of Great Emperor realm!”

The commanding voice answered Qing Guangwang’s query, implying that the Great Emperors cannot act, but others still can, since the martial world is always about combat and killing.

“Alright, it’s decided then; the five Great Emperors involved in the battle are all grounded for ten years, and within ten years, none may leave their residence, or else they face a collective outcry!”

The commanding voice finalized the decision, concluding this meeting, thus marking an end to this Great Emperor battle.
