The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 1297: Zhang Daoya and Zhao Han Yao

Chapter 1297: Chapter 1297: Zhang Daoya and Zhao Han Yao

Yang Jian returned to Qin Jun’s side, neither pleased nor sorrowful, as if he had only swatted a few dozen flies and felt no sense of achievement.

"Third-Eye, can you get any more impressive?" Li Yuanba stared straight at Yang Jian and asked, causing the corner of Yang Jian’s mouth to twitch slightly as he threw back a glare.

Qin Jun twisted his neck and laughed, "With Erlang here, even if the entire Baili Clan came out in force, I would not be afraid!"

"Ding! Side quest triggered—Hatred of Baili Honggang! Quest Details: The head of the Baili Clan, Baili Honggang, senses the death of Baili Changfeng, his great-grandson, and is furious with extreme murderous intent towards the host. If the host can kill Baili Honggang, they will obtain one chance for a limit awakening, one God and Demon summoning chance, one designated God and Demon summoning chance, one System favor chance, six random draw chances, and six skill inheritance chances!"

The system notification suddenly sounded, making Qin Jun smile.

Baili Honggang?

Head of Baili Clan!

Come!

Come and deliver system rewards to me!

Qin Jun was filled with anticipation, thinking that in the coming time, Baili Honggang himself would take action and no longer send weaklings to give experience.

His mood was very cheerful, wanting to find someone to spar with, but there was no suitable candidate.

The God and Demons were either too strong for him to overcome, or far weaker than him—neither were fit opponents.

As for the Lin Family...

Forget it, don’t bully the weak.

Qin Jun suddenly felt somewhat depressed, the loneliness of being invincible, sigh!

Meanwhile, the creatures watching the battle were sending messages out, as many among them were scouts and spies, sent to gather the latest battle reports between Heavenly Emperor of Qin and the Baili Clan.

The fall of Baili Changfeng would definitely shake the entire inner universe!

Baili Changfeng had lived for nearly ten billion years and had once been an eternal freak. After ascending to sainthood, his rise was meteoric, and he became one of the symbolic figures of the Baili Clan.

Such a mighty figure fell to Yang Jian in a single blow.

This would undoubtedly stir up a storm across the entire universe.

Previously, the name of Heavenly Emperor of Qin was only known within a hundred immortals’ realms, but the realms of the inner universe were far more than just a hundred.

In the vast starry sky, the name of Heavenly Emperor of Qin was about to truly set sail.

On that day, Lin Zhizhong publicly decreed throughout the entire Lin Holy Immortal Realm to celebrate Yang Jian’s victory.

As things had developed this far, their Lin Family was tightly bound with Qin Jun.

If Qin Jun were defeated, their entire Lin Holy Immortal Realm would be purged.

Fortunately, Yang Jian was strong enough, and Qin Jun had even forged the Supreme Overlord Body, leading them to mistakenly believe that Qin Jun had the backing of the Supreme God Temple.

For countless ages, the Baili Clan and the Supreme God Temple had been sworn enemies. With the Supreme God Temple as their support, why would they fear the Baili Clan?

The news spread wider and wider, and the rumors became more and more outrageous.

Yang Jian was gradually demonized.

Even someone claimed that Yang Jian was the billion-year-old orphan of the Baili Clan, subdued by Heavenly Emperor of Qin to seek revenge on the Baili Clan. Rumors swirled with various and sundry tales.

...

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Two sounds of cutting through the air resonated in the universe, filled with a chilling murderous intent.

One of them was none other than South Night Star, one of the Nine Saint Lords.

Flying in front of him was an old man with white hair and a youthful face, wearing a loose white robe, his wrinkled face revealing cold murderous intent.

"Master, it won’t be long before we reach the Lin Holy Immortal Realm. Shall we go there directly and kill our way through?"

South Night Star asked. His brothers and sisters, except for Lady Yunmei, were all killed by the subordinates of Heavenly Emperor of Qin, and his own cultivation was severely damaged. Such a deep-seated hatred had to be avenged—how could he not?

"Of course."

The white-robed elder answered gravely. It had not been easy for him to cultivate so many holy disciples, only for them to all be killed. How could he not be infuriated?

He was known as Zhang Daoya and had long surpassed the Heavenly Dao.

Every outer universe possessed its own Heavenly Dao, while the inner universe was governed by the Great Dao.

Zhang Daoya also enjoyed an illustrious reputation in the inner universe, having lived for over a hundred billion years. His original form was that of a withered pine, and his sermons had left a lasting legacy of renown.

"Master, perhaps... we should wait for the arrival of the Baili Clan before we make our move together?"

South Night Star suggested cautiously, having heard many things along their journey.

The fall of Baili Zhinan and Baili Changfeng filled him with dread towards Qin Jun.

Baili Changfeng might have been a junior of Zhang Daoya’s, but he too was a monstrous talent. Even at the early stage of the Heavenly Dao to Holy Realm, he was incredibly powerful, yet he had been instantly killed by Yang Jian, leaving South Night Star unable to fathom Yang Jian’s strength.

He certainly did not wish to see his own master fall at the feet of the Heavenly Emperor of Qin.

Zhang Daoya gave him a glance that made him lower his head in apprehension.

"The strength of Yang Jian is something I’m well aware of. I will not take him lightly."

Zhang Daoya spoke softly, his eyes full of complexity.

He had met Baili Changfeng and had even considered taking him as a disciple. Unfortunately, the Baili Clan had strict rules against their disciples taking another as their master.

South Night Star felt ashamed. With the wealth of experiences Zhang Daoya had, how could he let anger cloud his judgment?

"I shall test the waters first."

Zhang Daoya turned his gaze forward and sighed, "Baili Honggang is bound to come to the Lin Holy Immortal Domain. With the Heavenly Emperor of Qin having mastered the Supreme Overlord Body, the master of the God Temple will surely come too. By then, it will be a fierce clash of dragons and tigers. Do you think the Baili Clan can be of help to us?"

"The God Temple alone will be a handful for them. Hence, the Heavenly Emperor of Qin must be dealt with by us!"

South Night Star listened with a pounding heart. Baili Honggang was coming?

Even as one of the Nine Saint Lords, he had never encountered Baili Honggang, a being who had lived for countless eons, even older than Zhang Daoya himself.

And then there was the master of the God Temple; each one of them surpassed the Holy Realm, having forged the Supreme Overlord Body, rarely meeting an equal in combat.

The two great powers had not collided as intensely as they were now for many years.

Meanwhile, in another part of the starry sky, a group of people was flying towards the Lin Holy Immortal Domain.

Among them was a man dashing and handsome, with long hair bound atop his head by a jade sword, carrying three swords of different colors on his back, wearing a blue and white long shirt with a hem as soft as feathers, his whole figure as majestic and celestial as a dragon.

This person had great fame in the inner universe.

The foremost among the Nine Saint Lords, Zhao Han Yao!

With two strands of hair fluttering in the wind, Zhao Han Yao looked ahead at the stunning river of stars and softly said, "This time as we head to the Lin Holy Immortal Domain, let’s observe from the sidelines and not take sides!"

The entourage consisted of sixteen beings, half of them from the Human Clan, the rest demon kings.

They were all elite subordinates cultivated by Zhao Han Yao, each with impressive cultivation.

And Zhao Han Yao had reached the peak of the Holy Realm, half a step into the Heavenly Dao to Holy Realm.

"My lord, do we really need to get involved in the rivalry between the Baili Clan and the God Temple?"

A serpentine demon king couldn’t help but ask, his voice tinged with fear.

Without turning his head, Zhao Han Yao replied, "We’re not getting involved in their feud. I have other plans which I cannot reveal to you just yet."

His subordinates exchanged curious glances, all wondering what it was.

Zhao Han Yao usually appeared indifferent, seldom showing such keen interest in a person or an event.

A masked cultivator flying at the rear suddenly spoke, "I’ve just received a celestial message. Baili Honggang has left seclusion and is headed towards the Lin Holy Immortal Domain."

Upon hearing this, all beings changed in countenance.

Baili Honggang!

He was a being who commanded the wind and clouds in the inner universe!
