The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 325: The Majesty of the Qin Emperor

Chapter 325: Chapter 325: The Majesty of the Qin Emperor

Even with the Imperial Dynasty standing behind the Righteous Alliance, they still didn’t want to hand over Guarding Slaughter City on a silver platter.

"With His Majesty’s temperament..." Bai Qi suddenly mused, his words causing a stir among the crowd.

Indeed, Qin Jun was known to fear neither heaven nor earth, so how could he possibly surrender Sha City?

You Fenghuang also came to a sudden realization; if she lost Sha City while in her charge, Qin Jun would surely become enraged. It reminded her of the past when facing the Nanzhuo Dynasty. The gap between Qin Jun and the dynasty back then was very similar to the current situation with the Righteous Alliance – at least now, they were only facing the Righteous Alliance and not the Imperial Dynasty directly.

"The Sacred Emperor has already reached out to Great Qin Kingdom. Presumably, if we pretend to be unaware and occupy Guarding Slaughter City, the Sacred Emperor will not blame us," Liu Bowen stroked his chin, pondering, prompting nods from others.

Having reached a conclusion, everyone relaxed.

At this moment, a disciple from the Netherworld Holy Sect rushed in hurriedly.

"Report! The Righteous Alliance’s attack on the Netherworld Iron Pagoda has failed!"

As soon as these words were uttered, the entire hall erupted into commotion, with You Fenghuang standing up abruptly, asking, "How is that possible? Were there reinforcements?"

Chen Lian had already sought her help, but with Qin Jun away, she was helpless. It was impossible for Liu Bowen, Li Cunxiao, and Bai Qi to lead troops to rescue the Netherworld Holy Sect; these three only took orders from Qin Jun.

They would agree to carry out normal tasks, but they wouldn’t help with mobilizing the celestial guards.

The Empress mobilizing troops is a matter that would cause the Emperor to lose face, not to mention You Fenghuang had yet to become the Empress.

"Reliable sources claim that the city lord has returned..."

The reporting disciple said with a quivering voice, unable to suppress his excitement, as the sudden appearance of the Righteous Alliance had plunged the entire lawless land into a tense atmosphere. In just a few days, several cities had been conquered by the Righteous Alliance, and the troops committed had already surpassed ten million, a truly terrifying figure.

The city lord has returned!

This news exploded like a bomb, causing Liu Bowen, Li Cunxiao, and Bai Qi to stand up as well.

Bai Qi said excitedly, "If His Majesty has returned, then everything will be easy to handle!"

With Qin Jun overseeing the situation, all they needed to do was to take action!

Dan Mingzi and You Fenghuang exchanged glances, both seeing the surprise and confusion in each other’s eyes. How did Qin Jun know that the Netherworld Holy Sect was under siege—could he really predict the future?

Little did they know that it was merely the Netherworld Holy Sect’s luck that Qin Jun happened to teleport nearby.

"Good, then let’s wait for the city lord’s return, you may go now!"

You Fenghuang managed to contain her excitement and dismissed the messenger with a wave of her hand. Even she had to admit that Qin Jun was indeed the backbone; hearing about his return made the pressure brought by the Imperial Dynasty and the Righteous Alliance evaporate, allowing her to relax.

Meanwhile, the great battle in front of the Netherworld Iron Pagoda spread through the entire lawless land like a plague.

Righteous Alliance, Young Master Jun Qing!

In an extremely short time, both parties became the focal point of the entire lawless land!

The first defeat of the Righteous Alliance was actually orchestrated by Young Master Jun Qing. Connecting this to Young Master Jun Qing’s abrupt prior arrival led to endless speculation.

Some even said that the lawless land would become the chessboard for Young Master Jun Qing and the Righteous Alliance’s power struggle.

Soon, another bombshell shock the entire lawless land—that Young Master Jun Qing was none other than the Qin Emperor of the Great Qin Kingdom!

Although similar speculations had surfaced before, this time major powers were clearly pushing the narrative behind the scenes, making it impossible for the information to cool down, with countless cultivators discussing the matter.

Qin Emperor could indeed be considered the most dashing figure in the Righteous Dao at present, even though he did not quite match up to those powerful beings; however, his public reputation was second to none, with even the pace of being hailed as the foremost among the younger generation!

The most critical point was that Jin Wuhui had declared his desire to compete with Young Master Jun Qing during the holy selection. Does this not mean that Jin Wuhui acknowledged Qin Emperor’s personal strength?

For a time, the entire ownerless territory was stirred into a flurry of commotion.

...

Two days quickly passed, and Qin Jun led his grand team back to Guarding Slaughter City. The city walls were lined with celestial troops who, upon seeing Qin Jun’s return, all shouted in unison:

"Welcome back, Your Majesty, in triumphant return!"

Their voices were so loud they stirred the clouds above Guarding Slaughter City.

Wang Yan, Wang Xue, Shen Gongbao, Mo Xuanfeng, the Cat People Clan, and the cultivators of the Xuanfeng Tribe, all had their eyes widened. A hundred thousand celestial soldiers, a hundred thousand Ascending Mortal Realm soldiers— the mighty splendor of their unified shouting pierced directly into their hearts.

"Tsk tsk, didn’t expect you, young Qin, to have quite an impressive force!" Old Man Yi exclaimed in admiration. To this, Qin Jun simply shook his head and smiled, then leaped down from the back of the Savage Elephant King and strolled forward, with Yuan Hong and Lei Zhenzi following closely behind him.

At the city gate, You Fenghuang, Liu Bowen, Li Cunxiao, Bai Qi, Dan Mingzi, and the leaders of the celestial soldiers were all waiting, their faces filled with excitement.

Qin Jun walked unhurriedly when suddenly a burst of golden light shone forth, illuminating heaven and earth. Following this, the Nine Dragon Supreme Emperor’s Robe gradually covered him. After breaking through to the Transforming Void Realm, he had made this acquired spiritual treasure recognize him as its master by droplets of blood. Its defensive power far surpassed the Purple Gold Emperor Armor and could even enhance his dragon’s aura.

Dressed in the Nine Dragon Supreme Emperor’s Robe, Qin Jun seemed like the strongest monarch between heaven and earth, emanating an aura of might that inspired awe. Yuan Hong and Lei Zhenzi, following behind him, appeared like divine generals guarding him—a sight that left the members of the Cat People Clan and the Xuanfeng Tribe agape.

"Which Emperor is he exactly..." Mo Xuanfeng muttered in shock, having seen many emperors, including those of the Imperial Dynasty, but none possessed the divine and mighty presence of Qin Jun.

Wang Xue too gaped in wonder, gazing upon Qin Jun’s silhouette; she suddenly felt that at this moment, this was the real him, exuding an emperor’s mighty aura that looked down upon the world and commanded absolute dominance.

You Fenghuang had not attended Qin Jun’s coronation, so she had not seen the grandeur of Qin Jun wearing the Nine Dragon Supreme Emperor’s Robe. She too was dazzled by him at this moment.

"Truly worthy of being my man."

You Fenghuang watched Qin Jun approaching, with Liu Bowen, Li Cunxiao, and Bai Qi too sighing at Qin Jun’s elegance.

At the same time, they understood that Qin Jun’s display was not simply for show, but rather to convey an attitude. From now on, he would no longer present himself as Young Master Jun Qing, but as Qin Emperor.

The cultivators watching from inside the city gates also erupted in a buzzing discussion.

"Young Master Jun Qing is actually the Qin Emperor!"

"Such power and prestige, just like the Qin Emperor in my mind!"

"What an Emperor Qin!"

"Tsk tsk, Qin Emperor’s revealing his identity is clearly related to the Righteous Alliance. It seems the Great Qin Kingdom is set to collide head-on with the Righteous Alliance!"

"The Righteous Alliance is not the Abyss Sect; they can’t reach across territories, but the Righteous Alliance can. Qin Emperor is courting death!"

Wang Xue also heard these voices, her surprise making her cover her mouth lightly, her face revealing an incredulous expression.

Qin Jun was actually the illustrious Qin Emperor!

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Arriving at the city gate, Liu Bowen and the others quickly knelt down. The hundred thousand celestial soldiers atop the high wall did the same, and You Fenghuang, Dan Mingzi, as well as the cultivators of the Netherworld Holy Sect, though not from the Great Qin Kingdom, also bowed deeply in respect.
