Chapter 1379: Chapter 1379: The Ultimate Nine Spiritual Yuan Saint

"It is indeed Your Majesty... I have truly waited for Your Majesty..."

Baili Shouyue prostrated himself in excitement, continuously kowtowing just as he did when Qin Jun departed. Only, this was not the Heavenly Emperor’s stone hall, and his forehead was extremely hard, unable to draw blood, instead cracking the ground.

Seeing him like this, Qin Jun couldn’t help but feel heartache.

For Baili Shouyue, it might have been countless ages.

But for Qin Jun, it was just a short while, so seeing the changes in Baili Shouyue, the impact was tremendous.

"Did you not recognize me earlier?"

Qin Jun asked irritably, but his resentment faded when seeing Baili Shouyue with tears streaming down his face.

Baili Shouyue lay on the ground, crying and sobbing: "I was wrong... Your Majesty... I have finally waited for you..."

Previously, Qin Jun was merely at the Manifesting Saint cultivation level, a realm that Baili Shouyue had never seen Qin Jun in; every breakthrough in a realm would change one’s aura, not to mention that Qin Jun had not yet passed down the Flaming Dao.

Now, Qin Jun has returned from the Chaos era, his aura identical to what Baili Shouyue remembered, which made him recognize Qin Jun quickly.

Of course, the most crucial part was Qin Jun calling out his name.

Yang Jian and Hou Yi’s mouths were agape, unable to close for a long while.

Could this incredibly strong entity be worshipping Qin Jun and even addressing him as ’Your Majesty’?

One moment ago, they were in a life or death crisis, the next second, the enemy submits to Qin Jun?

The contrast was too great, even for the beyond-Saint level Yang Jian and Hou Yi, who were stunned on the spot, their minds blank.

Qin Jun sighed and helped Baili Shouyue up.

He could see that Baili Shouyue’s excitement was not feigned, but a real emotional outpour.

"Why are you here?"

Qin Jun asked, his heart deeply moved.

The era of Chaos until now was not as simple as a few hundred billion years, only Baili Shouyue knew how long he had waited.

"Because this is the former site of the Heavenly Emperor’s stone hall, I was afraid that Your Majesty would return and not find the stone hall, thinking that we abandoned you, so I have always waited here."

Baili Shouyue wiped his eyes, his voice still trembling, showcasing his immense excitement.

Time went by in indeterminate lengths, he was nearly numb, his heart persistently holding onto the promise made long ago, the inner sorrow only he understood.

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun was emotionally shaken, his eyes brimming with unspoken feelings.

He had thought of many things, but he never expected Baili Shouyue to be the one who was always waiting for him.

"I have been short-sighted."

Qin Jun sighed internally, his gaze toward Baili Shouyue becoming tender. He continued to ask: "What about the others?"

Upon hearing this, Baili Shouyue’s expression shifted subtly, his eyes flashing with anger, hatred, unwillingness, helplessness, pain, and various other emotions. He sighed and said, "That’s a long story, Your Majesty. Let’s find a place to sit down and talk at leisure."

After that, he waved his right hand, and the restraints on Yang Jian and Hou Yi were released, causing them to immediately spring up.

Qin Jun nodded, saying, "Lead the way!"

He was curious not only about where his former loyal followers were but also about Baili Shouyue’s relationship with the Baili Clan.

Could it be that the Baili Clan was not of the Human Clan?

Thinking this, his expression became quite peculiar; after all, he had eradicated the Baili Clan. Although he didn’t exterminate them down to the last one, it was akin to cutting down the descendants of Baili Shouyue.

"Your Majesty, what... what exactly is happening?"

Yang Jian asked telepathically, finding the situation too bizarre, still puzzled until now.

If Baili Shouyue had always been a subordinate of Qin Jun, why didn’t he recognize him before?

Moreover, wasn’t he the strongest under Qin Jun’s command?

How did such an even stronger existence suddenly appear?

Yang Jian felt both frustrated and pleasantly surprised, a complex mix of emotions.

"Will tell you later."

Qin Jun replied telepathically, he had laid out his plans for several hundred million years, not knowing how much he would harvest now.

What exactly was the Great Tribulation that eradicated the creatures of Chaos?

How many people from the Heavenly Emperor’s stone hall survived?

Where are they?

Many questions flickered through Qin Jun’s mind, but his temperament had long been calm, his face unchanging.

"Ding! Nine Spirit Sacred Law’s limit awakening succeeded!"

Just at that moment, a system alert sounded in Qin Jun’s mind.

Qin Jun was startled, only then remembering that beforehand, he had initiated the Nine Spirit Sacred Law and Xing Tian’s limit awakening before traversing.

"Bring up the attribute list of Nine Spirit Sacred Law!"

He wanted to see just how strong the Nine Spirit Sacred Law was after the limit awakening.

Sun Wukong hadn’t reached the Heavenly Dao Holy Realm, while Tathāgata was merely in the mid-stage of the Heavenly Dao Holy Realm, so it could be inferred that the Nine Spirit Sacred Law’s cultivation should be between the two.

The next second, the attribute list of Nine Spirit Sacred Law appeared:

"Nine Spirit Sacred Law, from Journey to the West."

"Identity: Nine-Headed Lion!"

"Cultivation: Early stage of the Heavenly Dao Holy Realm!"

"Cultivation Method: Nine Spirit Sacred Law!"

"Divine Power: Devouring the Starry Sky! Nine Spirits War Soul! Six Realms Roar!"

"Loyalty: 100 (Full score: 100)!"

Early stage of the Heavenly Dao Holy Realm!

For a limit awakening, this was already not bad.

In the future, it could grow even stronger through passage of the Great Dao.

He calculated that he now had four more chances for limit awakening, as well as two opportunities for passage of the Great Dao.

"I wonder how strong Xing Tian has become after his limit awakening."

Qin Jun looked forward to it in anticipation, thinking to himself that the martial god of Huaxia mythology must be awesome!

At that moment, a black hole appeared above his head, and straightaway Nine Spirit Sacred Law stepped out from it.

Baili Shouyue, caught by surprise, quickly turned around, reaching out with his right hand, and Nine Spirit Sacred Law, uncontrollably, flew towards him, his neck seized by Baili Shouyue.

"Stop! He is my loyal general!"

Qin Jun shouted sternly, feeling helpless inside.

If Nine Spirit Sacred Law had been choked to death by this person, he would have been extremely frustrated.

Baili Shouyue was taken aback for a moment, then released his grip, and Nine Spirit Sacred Law, his face flushed from being choked, immediately backed off, looking at Baili Shouyue with wariness.

Poor Nine Spirit Sacred Law, having just emerged was punished by Baili Shouyue, his joy from the cultivation leap utterly dissipated.

"How does His Majesty have such a weak subordinate?"

Baili Shouyue muttered to himself, almost making Nine Spirit Sacred Law spit blood.

Hou Yi and Yang Jian exchanged glances, both seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.

They suddenly thought that Qin Jun might be an ancient Heavenly Emperor; could it be that Qin Jun once had a bunch of strong subordinates?

Qin Jun glared at him and said, "It seems not only has your cultivation increased, but so has your audacity?"

Baili Shouyue was scared stiff, immediately kneeling to beg for forgiveness.

Devoid of the demeanor of a Supreme of the Great Dao.

In his heart, Qin Jun was the strongest, even if Qin Jun’s cultivation had not yet reached the Supreme of the Great Dao, he still blindly believed in him. It had become an obsession.

"Get up."

Qin Jun gestured with his hand, finding it hard to be stern with Baili Shouyue when he thought of Baili Shouyue’s waiting.

Soon after, he comforted Nine Spirit Sacred Law with a few words, and the group of five continued on their way.

Eventually, they arrived inside a wooden house.

The interior was bare with only a wooden bed and a set of four chairs.

Baili Shouyue unearthed two jars of wine from the backyard, entered the house, and with a smile said, "Your Majesty, at last, I can bring out this wine, having been brewed for hundreds of billions of years."

"Pfft—"

Yang Jian, who was drinking tea, upon hearing this, spat out his tea.
