Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

When Jun Wu Xie and Ye Qingxue arrived outside the Immortal Gate, there was no one there anymore.

The people from the Blood Oath Alliance had already left, as had those recruiters.

"Never thought we'd meet descendants of your Ye family's old guard here, huh?"

Jun Wu Xie looked at the entrance of the Immortal Gate, feeling a bit sentimental.

Ye Qingxue remained silent, nodding her head gently.

Most of the Ye family's generals had died in battle, while others had either disappeared or gone into hiding.

Some of the old guard were hidden in the Lower Realm, such as the Burial Clan within the Ancient Corpse Burial Ground.

However, she hadn't expected that the descendants of those generals still remembered the Ye family, even creating the Immortal Gate to secretly search for other descendants of the old guard, searching for the Ye family's descendants.

Their Ye family probably had no one else left in the world, except for her father, who confronted the Ancestors of Darkness, and herself, guarding the Town Universe Pagoda; the Ye family most likely had no other bloodline.

Back then, the Ye family's direct line was already small; she had several uncles and aunts, but they and their descendants had all died in that era.

Although there were many collateral family members, in that special era, after the Ye family collapsed, how could those enemies possibly let the Ye family's survivors go?

Whether it was the creatures of darkness or certain people in the Bright Universe during that era, they would not let the Ye family off.

She had tried to find the Ye family's descendants, but without any success.

"You're in a bad mood, thinking about the events of the Immortal Ancient Era, but you're keeping it bottled up, not wanting to tell me?"

Jun Wu Xie turned around to gaze at her, reaching out to remove the bronze mask from her face, "It's just the two of us; why are you still wearing a mask?

I like to see your peerless beauty.

When you were Little Nan Nan, I knew that Nan Nan would definitely grow up to be a stunning beauty.

As expected, after Nan Nan grew up, she was even more beautiful than I had imagined."

"You only know how to say nice things to make me happy; I'm not the Little Nan Nan from back then, so I won't be taken in by your sweet words."

Ye Qingxue had a strong presence, like a queen, and her voice was also cold.

"There's one bad thing about Nan Nan after she grew up, and that's that she doesn't know how to talk nicely anymore, always going against me.

Do you remember what I said? If you're not obedient, you'll be spanked, your butt will be smacked."

As he spoke, he directly gave her a princess carry, causing Ye Qingxue to let out a soft cry.

Immediately, he pretended to flip her over and spank her on his lap.

"You wouldn't dare!"

Ye Qingxue bit her red lips, staring at him with a hint of anger, her shy and angry eyes also hiding a few hard-to-detect tenderness.

"Then speak nicely next time."

Jun Wu Xie certainly wouldn't really spank her butt.

Although because of their special relationship, he could actually handle her in many ways, he had to grasp the limit; if he really angered her, she might turn around and clean him up instead.

Besides, Qingxue was so cooperative, he had to save her some face.

Otherwise, with his strength, how could he easily hold a Heavenly Emperor powerhouse like her in his arms?

In the end, it was still because she was willing to be held by him like this, cooperating with him.

Ye Qingxue didn't respond to his question about speaking nicely next time, but instead let out a sigh.

"I was thinking about the events of that year; logically speaking, my Ye family shouldn't have had such an ending.

Back then, my father suppressed the Nine Heavens, saved the living beings of the myriad realms, and fought against the darkness; how much did my Ye family pay for this?

At that time, the Bright Universe of mine, the Ye family seemed to be the center of the heavens, many of the world's Heavenly Emperors expressed their recognition of their father, joined my Ye family, and even willingly pushed my father as the lord.

How glorious was the Ye family in that era.

However, my Ye family's mission and responsibility had already destined the Ye family's final ending.

Among the heavens, not everyone's reverence for our Ye family came from the heart.

The direct and collateral high-levels of my Ye family all died in battle against the creatures of darkness.

My Ye family's generals were almost completely wiped out as well.

In the end, the darkness retreated, but my Ye family also declined because of this.

At that time, all the experts of the Ye family had died in battle, leaving only the old, weak, women, and children…

Later on, although I didn't witness it with my own eyes, I already understood the truth.

They were hunted down by the creatures of darkness and certain forces in our Bright Universe; everyone should have been gone.

The entire Ye family, now, besides my father, there is only me."

Ye Qingxue said to here, there was a glimmer of tears in her eyes.

Even as a Heavenly Emperor, she was not heartless and emotionless; her heart also had emotions.

"Therefore, the path we are walking is extremely difficult, and the price is very high.

The right path in the world is full of vicissitudes.

In fact, sometimes, we don't want to walk the so-called right path, but if we want to live, if we want to live in a world with hope, we can only walk the so-called path of righteousness.

If one day, we fail, the power you created may also face the same fate as my Ye family back then.

Before you knew who your past life was, did you not think I was very domineering, as if I could really defeat all the invincible hands in the world?"

"I still think you are very domineering now; my Nan Nan, my Qingxue, is such a domineering woman.

As the Ancestor of the Path of Soldiers, throughout your life, you have always been the most dazzling and radiant, no one in the world can take away your glory."

"I'm actually not domineering at all; I haven't even been able to avenge the Ye family's people from that year…"

Ye Qingxue's tone was a little lonely.

Jun Wu Xie's heart trembled slightly, hugging her and sitting down near the Immortal Gate, saying, "Not being able to avenge is not your problem, but the problem of reality.

After all, you have to face not only those enemies from that year, but also the dark powerhouses, and the Nine Heavens in the damaged Town Universe Pagoda.

Those enemies, they dared to defy the world and kill the old, weak, women, and children of the Ye family back then, it can be seen that their power must be extremely huge.

Maybe they even had some collusion with the creatures of darkness in secret.

After countless ages, those forces from that year probably already have more than one Heavenly Emperor.

However, these don't matter; I will find the other Primordial Divine Metals as soon as possible to completely repair the Town Universe Pagoda.

At that time, you will be able to break away from the special connection with the Town Universe Pagoda, completely withdrawing yourself and restoring yourself to your former peak.

With your aptitude and comprehension, once you solve these problems, you can basically directly break through to the Heavenly Emperor Completion Realm, and even quickly glimpse the threshold of the Realm of No Path.

At that time, you can settle the accounts with those forces that harmed the Ye family back then."

Ye Qingxue nodded gently, not speaking.

She was just quietly being held by Jun Wu Xie, nestled in his arms, looking at the distant mountains and rivers, the setting sun in the west, and the clouds dyed red by the afterglow of the setting sun.

The next morning, when the sun rose in the east, Ye Qingxue returned to the Town Universe Pagoda.

Jun Wu Xie got up, looked up at the sky, and then looked down at the Eternal Heart Lock on his wrist, saying, "You know about the Immortal Gate, right?"

"I know; don't worry, if they come to the Eternal Great World, I will definitely take care of them in secret.

The Ye family had many enemies back then, and they were all very strong.

However, when they return to the Eternal Great World, even if they are targeted, they will at most only face the middle levels within those forces, so you can rest assured."

"Then I'll thank you in advance."

Jun Wu Xie originally wanted to test her, to see what the real owner of the Eternal Heart Lock would react.

He had already guessed that she would agree, but he didn't expect her to agree so readily, without the slightest hesitation.

This matter was no small matter, not as simple as a helping hand, involving Heavenly Emperor-level forces; even if they were also Heavenly Emperor forces, they would be very cautious and would not easily agree to help.

But that woman, she agreed without any hesitation.

"I don't need you to say thank you; there has never been a need to say thank you between us."

That heavenly voice rang in Jun Wu Xie's ears, almost exactly the same as Yue Yao's voice, only the aura in the voice was somewhat different, with a natural sense of majesty.

"Although in a sense you are her, you are not her; I am not clear about your so-called definition of between us.

In any case, you should be very clear that I am very concerned about your existence, and what will happen to Yao'er in the future because of your existence."

"Whether I am her, whether she is me, who am I after all, what is the relationship between me and her, when you come to the Eternal Great World, you will understand everything."

After that voice finished speaking, it fell silent.

Jun Wu Xie looked down at the Eternal Heart Lock for a long time.

Judging from that woman's attitude, he couldn't even be sure whether Yao'er was her secondary body now.

Listening to her tone, it seemed that she would not let Yao'er, this secondary body, merge with her main body in the future?

For a Heavenly Emperor, that would be a defect in the body, a defect in the Dao Fruit, then she would never be able to touch the Realm of No Path.

Not to mention the Realm of No Path, even her strength in the Heavenly Emperor Realm would decline because of this; the Heavenly Emperor's Dao would be incomplete, with flaws.

Therefore, she should have no reason to give up.

"What kind of relationship is there between you…"

Jun Wu Xie was now full of doubts; he thought for a long time, and finally shook his head, no longer dwelling on this.

It was useless to dwell on it now; when he arrived at the Eternal Great World in the future, everything would come to light.

At that time, he would face and solve the problem.

He brought Yue Yao out from the Eight-Nine Mysterious Palace.

Yue Yao looked at the Immortal Gate, her eyes bright and clear, "Wu Xie brother, have the things inside the Immortal Gate been resolved?"

"Yes, let's go elsewhere in the Secret Land to take a look now."

Jun Wu Xie took her hand and sped away like lightning.

They continuously used their divine sense to search along the way.

Yue Yao's divine sense, which could be used at will at the level of Divine Realm Perfection, covered a wide range and had clear perception, and she discovered many rare treasures.

"Perhaps there are no resources left in this secret land that are worth our time anymore."

Several days later, they searched most of the secret land's area and obtained massive amounts of resources, all of considerable quality.

Within this secret land, there were many rare resources, some of which had already been harvested.

Clearly, it was either the Hot-Blooded Alliance or the recruiters from those ancient tomb families who had regained their freedom.

What pleased Jun Wuxie was that, through this experience, those people had really changed a lot.

When they encountered various rare resources, they didn't uproot them, leaving the roots behind, and only harvested the mature ones, leaving the immature sacred herbs and fruits.

"Not necessarily, Yao'er seems to have discovered an unusual place."

Yue Yao suddenly said this, and before long, they stopped in a misty area.

Here, the entire front was covered in thick mist, with the laws of order floating within.

This was the border of the secret land.

The laws of order in the mist emitted a terrifying aura, and it was conceivable that their power must be extremely strong. Once someone delved deep, they would be subjected to the strangulation of the laws of order.

From time to time, lightning could be seen flashing in the mist.

"There's actually a special ancient path!"

Jun Wuxie's divine sense couldn't perceive this far before, but now that he had arrived here, his divine sense could naturally sense the situation in the mist.

At the end of the mist directly in front of them, there was a special power of space-time flowing.

If it were someone else, they wouldn't be able to detect it at all. Only those with a higher soul realm or a very discerning eye could see the clues.

"Not only is there an ancient path, but there's actually Primordial Chaos energy on the ancient path!"

Jun Wuxie was somewhat shocked. This indicated that the ancient path was extraordinary, and the place it connected to was definitely not ordinary either.

That Primordial Chaos energy was formed naturally by heaven and earth, not formed by someone with the Primordial Chaos bloodline using some means. The nature between the two was completely different.
