The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 667: Tragic Outcome

Chapter 667: Chapter 667: Tragic Outcome

Black Butterfly Fairy explained the situation to Zun Rudao, who then fell silent.

"Lord, are we just going to let this matter slide?" an elder, who couldn’t let it go, asked. They had always been the ones to flaunt their power and intimidate others. Today, they had been forced into a corner by Qin Jun, and they found it very uncomfortable.

Zun Rudao glanced at him and said with sarcasm, "If you’re not convinced, you can go after him yourself."

The elders became gloomy at once, wondering why both Zun Rudao and Black Butterfly Fairy seemed to be afraid of Qin Jun.

Could it be that Qin Jun’s two subordinates were truly so formidable that it was beyond their wildest imagination?

On the other hand, Qin Jun and his party of five began to head back.

"Why didn’t you wait for me outside?" Qin Jun asked the chuckling Ruyi True Immortal next to him as he walked.

Daring to storm the God Temple with the cultivation of the True Immortal Realm was simply courting death.

He couldn’t tell if he was touched or amused, but for some reason, he found Ruyi True Immortal rather pleasing to the eye now.

"Hehe, I just felt that since Your Majesty was inside, I should come in too, in case I could help you," Ruyi True Immortal said, trying to read Qin Jun’s expression and chuckling sycophantically.

Qin Jun rolled his eyes; he did not believe that Ruyi True Immortal was so benign.

This guy was full of schemes in the Journey to the West, but Qin Jun couldn’t be bothered to quibble over it.

"Wukong, can you sense Divine Wuji’s aura?"

Qin Jun suddenly asked Sun Wukong in a low voice. Killing Divine Wuji would allow him to accomplish his mission and yield a substantial reward. Why not go for it?

Moreover, he believed that if Divine Wuji were given the chance to retaliate, he would definitely not forsake the hatred in his heart.

Sun Wukong closed his eyes to spread his Divine Consciousness, and soon after, he opened his eyes and said softly, "He’s at the very bottom."

Qin Jun’s eyes lit up, and he smirked, "Let’s go down."

Earlier, he didn’t want to cause too big of a commotion, but now that they were all together, it was time to go all out.

Sun Wukong nodded, then grabbed Qin Jun’s shoulder and dove directly into the ground with Luo Shixin doing the same to Ruyi True Immortal, and Pipa closely following behind.

For Daluo Golden Immortals, burrowing through the earth was definitely easy, and even with restrictions in place, it was hard to withstand their force.

Qin Jun felt a blur before his eyes and suddenly found himself in front of an iron door with four guards standing by it, all with Golden Immortal Realm cultivation. With a flicker of his form, Sun Wukong effortlessly knocked them unconscious before they could even cry out.

Luo Shixin, Ruyi True Immortal, and Pipa appeared one after another behind Qin Jun. Looking at the iron door engraved with images resembling the Torch Dragon, they all showed curiosity.

Pipa clicked her tongue in wonder, "The person inside is as good as ruined."

At the raise of Qin Jun’s eyebrow, he signaled Luo Shixin, who immediately understood. Taking out the Qilin Overlord Spear, he jabbed it at the iron door, toppling it directly.

Inside the cell, Divine Wuji, who was slumped against the wall, slowly raised his head. His appearance was wretched, covered in filth and bloodstains, his robes tattered, and his hair like withered grass. He was nothing like the former master of the God Temple.

"Why is it you...?"

Upon seeing Qin Jun and Sun Wukong, Divine Wuji’s murky eyes widened as he asked in shock.

Qin Jun’s mouth curled upwards, leaving behind the words, "Wukong, block the entrance, don’t let anyone in!"

With that, he entered the cell with Pipa and Luo Shixin.

Ruyi True Immortal swallowed nervously and hurried after them.

Meanwhile, Zun Rudao and Black Butterfly Fairy, who were talking with the elders, changed expression and disappeared from their spot at once.

"What, didn’t expect me to come?" Qin Jun approached Divine Wuji and said with a scornful laugh.

Luo Shixin stood in front of him to prevent any sudden attack from Divine Wuji.

Divine Wuji’s eyes were full of murderous intent and resentment, and also a hint of fear. With Qin Jun’s appearance here, it was certain he was here to kill him.

Why had Qin Jun appeared?

Was it a plot by Zun Rudao?

In an instant, Divine Wuji pondered many possibilities.

"Look at yourself now, don’t you find it sad?" Qin Jun’s smile faded as he asked coldly.

To be honest, he quite admired Divine Wuji, who had almost brought the entire Great Qin Heavenly Court to its knees singlehandedly.

So seeing him fall to this state stirred a mix of emotions in him.

Divine Wuji clenched his fists until his nails dug into his flesh, rage surging in his heart, but it was overshadowed by despair and desolation.

Heaven to hell, it happened too fast for him to accept even now.

"I can grant you a swift end so you can die honorably, instead of being imprisoned like livestock," Qin Jun said with narrowed eyes. If he hadn’t admired Divine Wuji’s past exploits, he would’ve had Sun Wukong or Luo Shixin deal with him directly by now.

Divine Wuji, at this moment, had his meridians shattered, and both his divine sea and elixir field sealed, rendering him hopeless, truly worse than death itself.

And looking at the cell, it was filled with a foul stench, enough to make one vomit.

Hearing this, Divine Wuji lowered his head and fell silent.

Just then, Zun Rudao and Black Butterfly Fairy showed up outside the cell. Upon seeing the scene, they grew anxious and tried to rush in, but Sun Wukong blocked their path with his staff, doing so with such ease it appeared casual, which visibly irked Zun Rudao.

"From now on, you’re not to step inside, or face death," Sun Wukong said with a casual glance, as if discussing the weather, instantly souring Zun Rudao’s expression.

This was the God Temple, after all, and Qin Jun dared to be so bold and presumptuous.

They had barely tolerated him taking Ruyi True Immortal by force earlier, and now he dared to break into the prison cells as if Zun Rudao didn’t exist.

Black Butterfly Fairy watched Qin Jun’s silhouette silently, contemplating in silence, her beautiful eyes filled with a sense of helplessness, her worst fears realized.

"Holy Emperor of Qin, what are you trying to do?" Zun Rudao asked in a stern voice, where was the assistance, this was outright enmity! It’s likely that before other powers could arrive, the God Temple would be wrecked by Qin Jun.

Qin Jun ignored him and looking down at Divine Wuji said, "See, the person standing outside should have been you."

Divine Wuji abruptly lifted his head, his gaze landing on Zun Rudao outside the cell, hatred intensifying in his eyes.

He harbored greater enmity towards Zun Rudao than towards Qin Jun.

Zun Rudao was his own protégé; little did he expect a betrayal during his time of vulnerablity, the feeling of being backstabbed was as piercing as a blade to his heart.

If Divine Wuji knew Zun Rudao had been summoned back by Black Butterfly Fairy, he might have died from spitting blood.

"Why did you treat me this way!" Divine Wuji roared in a low, hoarse voice, sounding like a beast.

His glare fixed on Zun Rudao, making the latter’s expression turn unsightly.

Before Zun Rudao could speak, Black Butterfly Fairy took the lead, "It was I who brought him back. With your current state, you’re simply not fit to bear the responsibility of a Lord."

Divine Wuji, on hearing this, was struck as if by lightning, his eyes bulging with unshed blood, filled with indignant disbelief and heartbreak.

Black Butterfly Fairy kept a calm gaze, continuing to speak, "You were too blindly obsessed with power and neglected the management of the God Temple. Even if you hadn’t encountered the Holy Emperor of Qin, disaster would’ve struck regardless."

This was indeed her genuine sentiment; the God Temple due to mismanagement, saw its disciples arrogant and lawless, committing numerous offenses and making too many enemies. Qin Jun was just one of them.

Back then, when Marquis Zihan came to the Southern Domain Holy Dynasty, he was utterly despicable, even targeting Qin Jun’s women. Despicable!
