The Strongest Mythical Emperor

Chapter 980: Chapter 980: The Eternal Emperor

"Hmm?"

Qin Jun’s expression was cold, and his disdainful snort frightened the many guards into shivering, their feet unconsciously stepping back.

The Black Butterfly Fairy leaned her face into Qin Jun’s chest and whispered softly, "I am going to the God Temple of Great Qin. Wait for my return."

Upon hearing this, the guards’ faces flickered with uncertainty, unsure if they should obey.

Emperor Yao suddenly stamped his foot, and the entire God Temple castle trembled, knocking the surrounding guards to the ground.

Qin Jun smiled faintly, holding the Black Butterfly Fairy as he began to walk, with Emperor Yao following closely behind.

Even though the God Temple messenger who led the way wore a mask, his exposed eyes were filled with admiration.

Indeed, he is the Heavenly Emperor of Qin.

So domineering!

He just carried away their temple leader!

In this manner, Qin Jun left with the Black Butterfly Fairy and Emperor Yao, causing the rumors about him and the Black Butterfly Fairy in the God Temple to grow more outrageous.

They didn’t return to the Southern Domain’s celestial world until the approach of dusk.

As soon as he returned, Qin Jun heard about the attack by the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny and hastily made arrangements for a palace chamber for the Black Butterfly Fairy, then summoned Patriarch Bodhi and Bai Ze to the imperial study.

"Where is the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny?"

Qin Jun asked, tapping on the desk, his tone somewhat cold, as he had already been informed about the casualties.

Patriarch Bodhi answered, "He was rescued by a mysterious and powerful figure, someone even I couldn’t catch up with."

If even he couldn’t catch up, let alone others.

A mysterious and powerful figure?

Qin Jun’s eyebrows furrowed tightly. To rescue the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny from Patriarch Bodhi’s hands, the other party’s strength must be extremely formidable, at the very least at the late stage of the Manifesting Saint Realm.

"Is this the protagonist of the heavens and earth? Could it be he is protected by some old grandpa?"

Qin Jun thought with resignation and continued to ask, "What did the person look like?"

"Unclear... He didn’t appear..." Patriarch Bodhi said, somewhat embarrassed.

Not even showing himself, and still rescuing the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny, does that not mean the person is stronger than him?

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun’s pupils constricted.

Could there really be a superpower surpassing Patriarch Bodhi that had emerged?

This thought weighed heavily on his mind.

"Your Majesty need not worry too much, if the other party didn’t show up, it means he cannot come. Moreover, if he had a close relationship with the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny, the Emperor would have sought his help long ago," Bai Ze reassured, causing Qin Jun and Patriarch Bodhi to nod in agreement.

The mysterious figure who rescued the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny doesn’t necessarily reveal much.

"We will have to be more cautious in the future."

Qin Jun waved his hand, the mysterious figure who rescued the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny like a sharp sword hanging over the heads of those in the God Temple of Great Qin, making Qin Jun hesitate.

He was worried that the God Temple of Great Qin would be attacked by this mysterious figure during his trip to the Ancient Immortal Realm.

In the following period, Qin Jun began seeking heavenly materials, earthly treasures, and elixirs for the Black Butterfly Fairy.

First was Tathāgata’s Nirvana Bodhi, but unfortunately, she had lived for one hundred and thirty thousand years, and the Nirvana Bodhi could not change much.

Then he sought out the Grand Supreme Elder to concoct elixirs, and he also purchased some heaven-defying life-prolonging medicines from the mythology marketplace. Finally, the Black Butterfly Fairy’s vitality recovered somewhat, aging from an elderly state to a middle-aged appearance. She wore a veil all day, seldom leaving her palace chamber.

Meanwhile, on the front lines, victories were reported one after another, with the domains under the God Temple of Great Qin surpassing one hundred ninety.

The continuous defeats of the Anti-Qin Alliance led to more and more domains surrendering without a fight.

The news of the defeat of the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny by Patriarch Bodhi also spread rapidly. At first, the lords could not believe it; how could the newly advanced Emperor of Heavenly Destiny fall so quickly?

But as time went on, the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny seemed to vanish from the world, causing unrest among the lords.

Could the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny truly have been defeated?

The yet unconquered domains were filled with panic, the creatures urging their realms to surrender to the God Temple of Great Qin.

"The trend has passed; no one can stop the Heavenly Emperor of Qin now."

"Has the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny died already?"

"Alas, who would have thought that the one to laugh last would truly be Heavenly Emperor Qin."

"Did the exceptional talent who was invincible for tens of thousands of years just die like that?"

"In the future, the world will truly revere Heavenly Emperor Qin."

Contrary to these domains, nearly two hundred domains under the banner of the Heavenly Court of Qin were in a frantic jubilation. Although many creatures harbored hatred after being merged into the Heavenly Court of Qin, the policies issued one after another tended to win more and more hearts.

Heavenly Emperor Qin, while tyrannical, was indeed considerate towards his subjects and wisely administered his rule.

Another five days passed, and the Anti-Qin Alliance announced its dissolution. Some lords surrendered to the Heavenly Court of Qin, while others, realizing the futility of surrender, chose to retire from the world.

The news once released sent shockwaves throughout the land.

This epoch-making turmoil had ended faster than people had imagined!

...

In Donghuang Territory, the grand doors of the Demon Emperor Palace slowly opened.

Countless Demon Kings and beasts prostrated themselves around the palace, gazing upon the figure of Donghuang Taiyi with utmost fervor.

Now, the only one left to contend with Heavenly Emperor Qin was their Demon Emperor.

As members of the Demon Clan, they all believed this to be an opportunity for the Demon Clan to take charge of the world once again.

Looking at the numerous beasts, Donghuang Taiyi’s face was expressionless. He swept his gaze around and said, "This Emperor wishes to leave for the world beyond. You are to disperse for now. When the bright day arrives, it shall be time for this Emperor to rule the world, and you shall reemerge."

The moment these words were spoken, all the Demon Kings and beasts widened their eyes in shock.

Disperse?

"Your Majesty, Demon Emperor, this cannot be!"

"Demon Emperor, Your Majesty, are you going to abandon us?"

"If we don’t suppress Heavenly Emperor Qin now, there will be even less hope in the future."

"The world beyond? Why go there?"

The Demon Kings urgently advised, their voices filled with emotion. If Donghuang Taiyi were to leave, whom could they rely on?

The Demon King of Bull’s eyes twinkled amidst the beast tide. During this period, he had noticed that Donghuang Taiyi seemed like a different person. Now he was leaving for the world beyond, could it be that Donghuang Taiyi harbored some inscrutable scheme?

"My mind is made up. When the bright day dawns, that will be the time of my return," Donghuang Taiyi proclaimed.

Having said that, Donghuang Taiyi leaped up. The stone steps crumbled beneath his feet as he shot into the sky like an arrow, disappearing from the beasts’ sight.

Suddenly, the area around the Demon Emperor Palace erupted into chaos as countless beasts howled in sorrow.

Donghuang Taiyi was their faith, and now that he had departed, where should they go?

"To the world beyond..."

The Demon King of Bull murmured to himself, his eyes brimming with surprise and delight.

With Donghuang Taiyi gone, he no longer needed to serve as a spy; he could return to the Heavenly Court of Qin to be with his wife and children.

The news quickly spread, causing a stir in all directions.

With the fate of the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny uncertain, and the only one who could contend with Heavenly Emperor Qin, Donghuang Taiyi, fleeing to the world beyond.

Now, who could possibly stop Heavenly Emperor Qin?

"With Nether Emperor fallen, Sword Master captured, fate of Emperor of Heavenly Destiny uncertain, and Demon Emperor escaped to the world beyond, my heavens... How many former overlords has Heavenly Emperor Qin stepped over on his rise to power?"

"In the future, there will be no Nine Emperors, only Heavenly Emperor Qin!"

"But there are still Randeng, Xu Chongsheng, Yan Emperor, and Martial General Ding ah!"

"Are you foolish? Randeng and Xu Chongsheng are clearly on the side of Heavenly Emperor Qin. As for Yan Emperor and Martial General Ding, they have no power to resist."

"I never thought I’d witness the change of an era in my lifetime."

All creatures in the world were stirred up, and with Demon Emperor leaving Xuandang Great World, the turmoil in Xuandang Great World was also about to come to an end.

The Emperor for All Eternities, Heavenly Emperor Qin!
