The Strongest Mythical Emperor

Chapter 489: Chapter 489: Mad Assembly

Black Butterfly Fairy looked at Qin Jun for a moment, her eyes brimming with a smile that Qin Jun couldn’t fathom.

"Who are you really..." Qin Jun asked through gritted teeth.

He hated being toyed with the most, even if it was for his own good. He liked to be in control of everything, rather than being kept in the dark.

Black Butterfly Fairy blinked her beautiful eyes, shook her body, and disappeared from the spot, without a trace.

Jin Chanzi said solemnly, "The cultivation of this woman is unimaginably high; I simply couldn’t sense how she came here, nor how she left."

Battle trash.

Qin Jun rolled his eyes, but of course, he was still very grateful to Jin Chanzi. Just now, at a moment of critical fate, Jin Chanzi didn’t run away. Instead, he fearlessly blocked in front of Qin Jun, which was commendable.

Soon, Yang Jian appeared before Qin Jun, casually threw something, and the head of Yao Xu landed on the ground, rolling several times.

"What happened just now?"

Yang Jian asked in a deep voice. Just now, the two auras transmitted from this side had frightened him into hurrying back from a hundred miles away, fearing for Qin Jun’s safety.

Qin Jun shook his head and said with a smile, "Nothing much."

Being saved by a mysterious woman and even teased for a bit, Qin Jun’s mood was rather gloomy, naturally not wishing to elaborate.

Now, counting up, there were still two Star Officials yet to be eliminated. Once he got rid of them, Qin Jun would be able to complete his task, earning another god and demon summoning chance and a random lottery draw. Currently, the more powerful gods and demons he could summon, the better for him.

The rest were still in a state of shock—first by Yang Jian and the Star Officials’ battle, followed by the Grand Star Official’s thunderous strike, and then by the sudden appearance of Black Butterfly Fairy. A series of changes left them as if in a dream, and what made them most envious was the mysterious relationship that Black Butterfly Fairy seemed to share with Qin Jun, unknown to them.

The stature and prowess of Black Butterfly Fairy alone were enough to invoke admiration, and to think that such a woman would have her eye on Qin Jun.

Comparing oneself to others could be infuriating.

"Are you not going to scram?"

Qin Jun turned to look at Xuan Qing with a smile and spoke. Upon hearing these words, Xuan Qing clenched his teeth and forcibly stood up, then started to stagger away into the distance.

Given his current condition, the journey ahead would likely be very difficult.

But Qin Jun believed he would endure. He needed to warn Sang Liang to ensure that the old monk wouldn’t come to cause more trouble.

As for fearing Xuan Qing’s retaliation, from a man’s perspective, if he were Xuan Qing, he certainly wouldn’t publicize this matter. Even later, upon seeing Qin Jun, he would have to detour around him, lest the incident be exposed.

Sometimes a man’s pride outweighs his hatred.

After he left, Qin Jun and the others rested on the spot for a while before continuing on their way.

At the same time, the effect of Yang Jian’s Limit Pill faded, and his complexion turned slightly pale, clearly having suffered a backlash, but he dared not show it. Qin Jun also whispered to him, "Just endure it for now, we can’t let the remaining two Star Officials realize anything."

From the Grand Star Official’s move, Qin Jun understood that he was very strong, perhaps even Yang Jian could not contend with him. Now, they could only rely on Yang Jian to deter him.

But if Yang Jian showed any sign of discomfort, it could be seen by the other party as a severe injury, prompting the opponent to make a move.

Although Black Butterfly Fairy said she would protect him, Qin Jun still couldn’t fully trust her.

The rest of the journey was silent.

The earth-shattering battle between Yang Jian and the Star Officials had resonated throughout the Heavenly Realm. Such major battles had occurred more than once, and even from a great distance, the intimidating pressure could be felt, causing more and more participants to question the fairness of the Heavenly Convention.

Against such an enemy, even if all participants joined forces, it wouldn’t be enough; what was the God Temple trying to do?

Purposely setting a trap for all the domains?

If the geniuses of their generation all perished, it would be akin to depriving the domains of hope for hundreds of years.

Could it be that the Southern Domain wanted to teach the other domains a lesson?

Suddenly, all kinds of speculation began to circulate within the Heavenly Realm.

Meanwhile, the top geniuses could no longer sit still and began furiously hunting other domains’ geniuses. The Heavenly Convention had gone on for many days and it was time for the climax!

The most outstanding ones were none other than Dongfang Ji, Lil’ Devil Monarch, and Jin Wuhui.

That’s right, Jin Wuhui, upon entering the Heavenly Realm, soared like a dragon emerging from the abyss, defeating all his opponents using a broadsword just two-fingers wide, never tasting defeat.

Similarly, the name Holy Emperor of Qin resounded just as loudly and was on par with the top three. However, the Holy Emperor of Qin let many participants go. As he defeated more and more people, those who initially resented him began to feel grateful towards him.

Compared to Dongfang Ji and the other two, the Holy Emperor of Qin was indeed much more merciful.

Every day, hundreds to thousands of participants died, and the qi movement rankings of the domains fluctuated. The Southern Domain powerfully entered the top twenty and was striving towards the fifteenth.

This made the Southern Domain ecstatic, and within the Human Clan’s world, cheers abounded. Never before had the Heavenly Convention been so open; the Southern Domain’s performance had always been mediocre, not worthy of publicity.

Moreover, after earlier repelling the Flat Sky Demon Monarch, the entire Human Clan in the Southern Domain had been in high spirits in recent times.

Everyone was exclaiming that the golden age of the Southern Domain was finally coming!

...

In the God Temple.

With only three of the eighteen Star Officials remaining, the Grand Star Official, the Second Star Official, and Black Butterfly Fairy sat on stone chairs, calmly watching the performances of the participants within the various light spheres.

The death of fifteen Star Officials caused the atmosphere in the grand hall to become bleak.

Black Butterfly Fairy twirled her hair with her fingers, her gaze serene as if none of the strife from days before had happened, but the Grand Star Official’s face was grim, and the Second Star Official’s eyes wandered, thinking about something.

"Now there are fewer than five thousand participants left. It won’t be long before the Heavenly Convention ends," the Grand Star Official finally spoke with a heavy tone.

His implication was simple: if they didn’t take action to seize the Wheel of Fate now, it would be too late.

In the midst of speaking, the Grand Star Official looked at Black Butterfly Fairy. For the moment, his infatuation with her no longer existed; in its place was wariness.

What exactly did this woman want to do?

Did she intend to monopolize the Wheel of Fate?

The Second Star Official also looked thoughtfully at Black Butterfly Fairy, clearly scared by her easy repulsion of the Grand Star Official.

Unexpectedly, the strongest amongst the Star Officials turned out to be her.

"Ending it sooner is better; it’s too boring here," Black Butterfly Fairy nodded, seemingly oblivious to the Grand Star Official’s subtext.

"Will you still obstruct me?" the Grand Star Official stared intently at Black Butterfly Fairy and asked, a question he had suppressed for several days but could no longer withhold.

What he feared most was that Black Butterfly Fairy had already leaked the information to the temple master, and the temple master was secretly watching him.
