"What's there to explain? We don't know about Ao Tian's matter, and we never ask about it." The head of the Long family sneered.
"Nonsense! Your Long family just stands by and watches someone die." The Zhao family head was furious, roaring hysterically.
The Zhao family patriarch's shout immediately drew a lot of attention. Everyone looked at them in astonishment. What was going on with the Divine Clan? Why did they suddenly start arguing?
"If you like to think that way, go ahead." The head of the Long family sneered, clearly unwilling to discuss this matter further.
At this moment, Long Aotian's display of strength was terrifying, repeatedly taking Hanwei Emperor's moves head-on. It was simply astonishing.
When Long Chen killed Zhao Ritian, if Long Aotian hadn't hidden his strength, he would have had a great chance to save him. But Long Aotian didn't do that, and the Zhao family head suddenly lost his temper.
Now the head of the Long family was acting indifferent. The head of the Zhao family was so angry that his face trembled, and with one hand he pointed at the head of the Long family, shouting, "
The people of the Long family are treacherous and cunning. They deserved to be nearly wiped out back then..."
At this point, Suddenly, a look of realization appeared on the Zhao family head's face: "So that's how it is. Back then, your Long family was ... because of Long Aotian."
"Shut up."
Suddenly, the Lord shouted sternly, stopping the Zhao family head. He roared, "No one is allowed to mention this matter, or you will be executed without mercy." "
The head of the Zhao family's face darkened, filled with hatred. Clearly, he harbored deep hatred toward the Long family, but at this moment, he had no choice but to hold it in.
"If you have any objections, you can go back and ask the Holy Lord to make a decision. What kind of argument is it that comes here?" The Lord shouted coldly.
The Zhao family head held back his breath and said no more, but his expression was extremely grim. The Long family head glanced at him, a mocking smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. He ignored him and continued to look at Long Aotian.
"Clang, clang... The
zither music surged, the void shattered, and the music echoed through heaven and earth. Invisible thin threads sliced through space, each slicing the void into displace.
"Boom boom boom... The
Nine Dragons Devouring the Heavens Diagram behind Long Aotian trembled, and on his fist, the Nine Dragons Pattern appeared. Each time it struck the void, it shattered inch by inch, neutralizing Emperor Hanwei's attack.
People were shocked. So Long Aotian was the strongest existence. At this moment, Emperor Hanwei had summoned the Seven-Stringed Heavenly Dao Zither, yet Long Aotian was able to fight him to a draw.
"Nine-Dragon Swallowing Heaven Diagram?" Hmph, mixed but not pure, broad but not refined. Some things aren't always better when there are more, especially things that never truly belonged to you. "Emperor Hanwei snorted coldly.
Long Aotian's expression changed, but he quickly returned to normal and said calmly, "What the Great Emperor says is true. But the mysteries of the universe, myriad laws and paths, when cultivated to the extreme, can one become an immortal or a god."
The Tianwu Continent is but a small part of the vast universe; how could an emperor deny my own path? As
soon as Long Aotian said this, countless people were furious. Long Aotian was so arrogant, he was actually questioning the Emperor.
Although his words sounded calm, they secretly mocked Emperor Hanwei, saying he spent his life guarding the Tianwu Continent, unaware of the world beyond the realms, and carried a sense of 'summer insects whispering ice'—a form of desecration toward the Emperor.
"Soldiers from the Divine Realm, how dare they act arrogant? Even if you control the Nine-Dragon Swallowing Heaven Diagram, ranked third among the Thirty-Six God-level phenomena, so what? Isn't it cultivated with Immortal Seeds? And how much of a fit can there be?
Your spiritual roots are chaotic, your spiritual blood is mixed, your spiritual bones have mutated, and you have forcibly blessed it later. While it's not a superflue, it can't be called an added force.
Using acquired power to seize innate fortune is nothing but a side path that goes against the principles of heaven and ethics. Even with the blessing of the Nine-Dragon Devouring Heaven Diagram, how long can you really control it? If you go out in the world, you'll have to pay it back sooner or later. Emperor Hanwei's expression grew colder, divine light flickering in her eyes, as if the temperature of heaven and earth was rapidly dropping, and a dense murderous aura condensed within the world.
The bone-chilling cold gradually invaded people's souls, making them shiver involuntarily. The intense breath of death echoed in the air, and it felt like taking a breath brought one step closer to death.
People were filled with shock. What was going on? Emperor Hanwei was furious and began to kill Long Aotian. If Emperor Hanwei didn't go after the powerful outsiders, how could he kill Long Aotian?
"Shut up! I, Long Aotian, dominate the world. If I don't submit to anyone, even if I'm an emperor, so what? Today, I will overturn your undefeated myth. Long
Aotian roared. The words of Emperor Hanwei struck a nerve in his heart. He was both shocked and furious, as if all his secrets were about to be exposed in front of Emperor Hanwei.
Long Aotian actually shot up into the sky, charging straight at Emperor Hanwei. As the Nine Dragons Devouring the Heavens Diagram behind him rotated, the myriad paths of heaven and earth formed a massive vortex behind him.
"I... Why can't I sense the power of the Heavenly Dao anymore? People
were shocked to discover that, in that instant, the entire world's Heavenly Dao power seemed to be drained by him.
"Buzz"—
A long spear appeared in Long Aotian's hand. It was a golden spear engraved with nine golden dragons. As soon as it appeared, endless immortal energy surged, and a force he had never felt before surged through the world.
"Could this be a legendary immortal artifact?"
People were shocked. The aura of this spear was actually different from that of all weapons on the Tianwu Continent, and even from the domain artifacts of the Blood Fiend Demon Lord and Moluo Tianxing. It seemed to surpass all the Dao of the Myriad Paths.
With the spear in hand, the dragon patterns on it blended with the strange phenomena behind him. The endless sound of dragon roars echoed through the world. Long Aotian thrust his spear, and the world suddenly fell into a dead silence, as if all sounds had been absorbed by the spear.
"So what if it's a divine weapon from the Immortal Realm?"
Emperor Hanwei snorted coldly. The string of the Heavenly String was plucked, and a divine light slashed toward Long Aotian.
"Boom!"
The divine light shattered. Long Aotian's figure trembled, his spear trembling as he charged at Emperor Hanwei again:
"Tianxian, you are merely the sky of this Tianwu Continent. The Tianwu Continent is too small, merely a stepping stone for me, Long Aotian. The ladder over the wall, my future lies in a higher world." You want to bind me with the laws of this world? "Dream on."
Long Aotian's words were extremely arrogant, almost mad, but people were shocked by his arrogance and also shocked by his terrifying strength.
You have to know, Tianxian's strike just now nearly killed the nine-headed lion, who was at full strength, in one blow, but Long Aotian easily blocked it.
"I don't dislike arrogant people, because those who are arrogant in front of me have all been killed by me.
But I really dislike you because you hurt the person I love most, so today, I will execute you. After
Emperor Hanwei finished speaking, she pressed her hands on the zither. Suddenly, the strings contracted rapidly, transforming into a nine-foot ancient zither in her hands. The moment the zither appeared, everyone was shocked:
"Nanhai Zither"
