Chapter 2243 - 2240: Notification

After absorbing and refining all the Origin Power from Luan Yun Divine King, Ye Xuan’s body surface had wisps of Purple Divine Dragons roaming around.

It was the pure Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power.

Even as Ye Xuan breathed, wisps of purple energy surrounded him.

Upon opening his eyes, lightning seemed to tremble in purple hues.

At this moment, Ye Xuan.

Did not seem like someone who had just gone through a massive battle; rather, he appeared as an ancient Demon God walking out of Taichu Hongmeng, with each move attracting the Dao Laws of heaven and earth.

It seemed as though all the Dao Laws unfolded around Ye Xuan.

He.

Was the sole existence in the world.

That feeling.

Truly invincible.

Qingming Immortal King had almost fully recovered at this moment.

Watching Ye Xuan beat Luan Yun Divine King half to death, Qingming Immortal King felt somewhat speechless.

Because he knew the prowess of Luan Yun Divine King.

Even though Luan Yun Divine King’s prowess had severely declined, he was still a Divine King with deep foundations.

Even now, he was definitely not a match.

Moreover, he knew his own power was fluctuating between the Great Emperor and Quasi-Emperor realms.

Just unstable, rising and falling unpredictably.

"Thank you."

Qingming Immortal King handed back the Slaughter Immortal Spear to Ye Xuan, then expressed his gratitude.

Ye Xuan reached out to take the Slaughter Immortal Spear, while examining the spear that had slaughtered countless immortals, and replied, "Didn’t Qingming Cave just open a few years ago to restore Immortal Qi? How is it your strength is not yet back to that level?"

Qingming Immortal King froze, seemingly surprised that Ye Xuan knew the true inside story, but he didn’t question Ye Xuan about it and followed along with what Ye Xuan said:

"To be honest, the Immortal Qi restored this time is merely a drop in the ocean, all added to the seal."

"Unexpectedly, Luan Yun Divine King has been feigning weakness for years. His strength has indeed been declining, but it has clearly surpassed mine. Additionally, the back-up he left earlier played a role, and his bursting out from behind the seal was actually within my expectations."

Qingming Immortal King appeared very calm.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan raised his eyes toward Qingming Immortal King, and slowly said: "Within your expectations?"

"So, does that mean you also have a backup plan?"

Ye Xuan teased.

Qingming Immortal King pondered: "Actually, I have only one way, which is to perish together with him."

Ye Xuan twitched his mouth and gave a thumbs-up: "You’re badass."

Qingming Immortal King chuckled and said: "There is no other way."

He was not joking.

When Luan Yun Divine King broke free from the seal, his only remaining option was to perish together with him.

Moreover, Luan Yun Divine King harbored intentions of revenge. Upon breaking free from the seal, he did not leave immediately but instead engaged in a fierce battle with him.

This was his only opportunity.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the battle, the Undying Night Emperor arrived.

This was fortunate.

He didn’t have to die, and Luan Yun Divine King was also suppressed.

Perfect outcome.

Thus, Qingming Immortal King was genuinely thankful to Ye Xuan.

"By the way, Emperor Ye, did you get the Qingming Xuan Yin Banner?"

Qingming Immortal King examined Ye Xuan and asked softly.

Ye Xuan put away the Slaughter Immortal Spear, and said solemnly: "Speaking of which, we better check on Jing Chuan Immortal Venerable first."

Under the bronze mask, Qingming Immortal King’s expression hardened: "The Lord of Black Devour also broke free?!"

Ye Xuan squinted and replied: "I entered Qingming Cave and found the Lord of Black Devour bellowing, but he has been suppressed by me. I didn’t expect Luan Yun Divine King to create such an uproar; Jing Chuan Immortal Venerable was already in a bad state and was nearly killed by that force. I left Qingming Xuan Yin Banner with him, temporarily protecting him there."

As he spoke, Ye Xuan flew outside.

Qingming Immortal King walked side by side with him.

The two chatted as they flew, discussing the events from ninety thousand years ago.

It turned out that ninety thousand years ago, after Ye Xuan was betrayed by the Double Emperors, the Suspended Life Old Immortal from the Old Immortal Store in Empty Ancient City of Dao Chu Ancient Land did walk out of Empty Ancient City.

He seemed to have visited the Sovereigns of major Forbidden Lands to relay this message.

Qingming Immortal King also received the message at that time.

However, actually, they all knew the Undying Night Emperor would not die.

That betrayal was just a step in the larger chess game.

Ye Xuan was somewhat doubtful about this message.

He began to have some suspicions about the identity of the Suspended Life Old Immortal.

The true identity of this guy was a capable subordinate of Youwei.

Moreover, in the battle back then, his Dao Immortal Bridge was broken.

It’s roughly estimated that this guy was an unparalleled Immortal King.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have directly taken orders from Hong Yao Immortal Emperor.

But why did this guy know the news immediately when he was betrayed?

The betrayal back then involved those Nine-colored Human Shadows.

Those Nine-colored Human Shadows seemed to be from Dou Tian Divine Domain’s Dou Tian Sovereign.

Ye Xuan retained this suspicion, then directly inquired Qingming Immortal King about Qingming Cave’s stance.

Qingming Immortal King and Ye Xuan were old acquaintances, and with Ye Xuan’s assistance this time, Qingming Immortal King, being true to himself, did not hide anything from Ye Xuan, and plainly stated his stance.

Qingming Immortal King was one of the Nine Immortal Kings who were fierce in the Ancient Immortal Realm back then.

In the Ancient Immortal Realm, besides Hong Yao Immortal Emperor, the Nine Immortal Kings were the most renowned.

Note.

Most renowned, not necessarily the strongest.

Because the Nine Immortal Kings were rising stars, having carved out a piece of the sky during the Immortal Ancient End.

In that golden era with Immortal Kings aplenty, to have made a name as the Nine Immortal Kings was a testament to their terrifying prowess.

And the Nine Immortal Kings were most famous for the Nine Great Immortal Treasures.

Each of them possessed an unparalleled Immortal Treasure, containing boundless Immortal Dao Laws, allowing them to far surpass others in the understanding of Immortal Dao Laws.

It was one of the reasons why the Nine Immortal Kings could rise to prominence.

Though the Nine Immortal Kings were mentioned together, they operated independently, either having their own forces, not forming a complete entity.

In the battle at the Immortal Ancient End, the Nine Immortal Kings ventured forth together. Although not directly under Hong Yao Immortal Emperor’s command, during that battle, they acted under Hong Yao Immortal Emperor’s orders.

Upon learning this result, Ye Xuan was somewhat amused.

It seemed they were all Youwei’s subordinates.

However, regarding Youwei, Ye Xuan did not say much.

Youwei is under a lot of pressure now.

During the conversation.

The two arrived where Jing Chuan Immortal Venerable was.

Due to being suppressed by Ye Xuan earlier, the Lord of Black Devour had fallen back into slumber.

Jing Chuan Immortal Venerable was already sitting in his previous corner, with cracks all around his body, resembling a shattered porcelain doll.

Fortunately, the protection of Qingming Xuan Yin Banner prevented the injuries from worsening.

However, his current state was still very bad!

Qingming Immortal King immediately landed beside Jing Chuan Immortal Venerable, releasing robust immortal power to alleviate his wounds.

Jing Chuan Immortal Venerable slowly opened his eyes, and upon seeing Qingming Immortal King and Ye Xuan, a faint smile of relief appeared in his old murky eyes.

"Immortal King, I shall leave first..."
