My All-Heavens Chat Group-Chapter 424 - 35 Angel Yan VS Black Tiger_1
「Sacred Grounds of Yaochi.」
"The Eastern Phoenix Empress, such grandeur! If I wish to see her, must I present an invitation and await an audience?"
A cold voice rose, and a terrifying pressure immediately filled the hall, as if it could crush a person to pieces.
Gu Qiushui’s full and exquisite body trembled as she endured the pressure. She said apologetically, "God Master, you jest. Both Saint Masters are in seclusion and truly cannot attend to other matters. May I ask what instructions the God Master has? As soon as the Saint Masters emerge from seclusion, I will surely pass on the message."
Eastern Phoenix Yunxi and Nangong Mengyao had been taken into God’s kingdom by Hongmeng, and she couldn’t contact them either. Looking at the black-robed man sitting in the seat of honor, Gu Qiushui’s heart filled with bitterness. This man was a God Master Warrior: the Black Tiger Saint. His true form was a Dark Sacred Tiger, a being of fearsome reputation on the Eternal Continent. Even the Sacred Grounds of Yaochi dared not offend him. Moreover, she knew he had come with ill intentions. And she, with only her Primordial Golden Immortal Cultivation Level, could only imagine the pressure of facing such a formidable power.
"Who do you think you are?"
The Black Tiger Saint huffed coldly, saying arrogantly, "I heard that Eastern Phoenix Yunxi is the woman of a little fellow from the God King Realm named Hongmeng. Since Eastern Phoenix Yunxi is not here, let that kid come out!"
He had come today precisely for the matter of the Black Emperor and Red Emperor. The Red Emperor and Black Emperor were rising stars of the Tiger Clan, prodigies with the potential to become God Masters, yet now they had fallen at the hands of Eastern Phoenix Yunxi and Hongmeng. He was, of course, aware that either Hongmeng or Eastern Phoenix Yunxi had a formidable God Master backing them. But his Tiger Clan was not without its own powerhouses. If they were to let this incident slide, where would the Tiger Clan’s dignity stand? Of course, the Tiger Clan was strong, but they also did not want to enter open conflict with an unknown, powerful God Master over two fallen prodigies. This was also why he was currently sitting here. Otherwise, he would have already obliterated the Sacred Grounds of Yaochi with a single slap.
"Reporting to the God Master, Young Master Hong is also in seclusion, and for the moment, I fear..." Gu Qiushui forced herself to speak.
She had no way to contact Hongmeng. As the Grand Elder of the Yaochi Saintess Land of Zhongzhou, she had met Hongmeng only twice and had little interaction with him. Duanmu Xi and Ji Yue from the Eastern Xuan Region’s Sacred Grounds of Yaochi nearby were a bit more familiar with Hongmeng, but they too could not contact him. It was usually Ji Hongxia who communicated with Hongmeng, and Ji Hongxia was also in God’s kingdom at this moment.
"In seclusion?" The Black Tiger Saint’s tiger-like eyes widened as he slammed the table and stood up. "Do you truly think I dare not kill?"
As he spoke, a terrifying aura, like a raging tempest, swept across everything.
In an instant, the very air above Yaochi seemed to shift, and one protective formation after another, unable to bear the strain, collapsed. One by one, the Yaochi Disciples fell to the ground under this God Master’s terrifying pressure, as if carrying mountains on their backs. Even Gu Qiushui, a Primordial Golden Immortal, trembled violently, her bones crackling, like a candle in the wind, on the verge of collapse.
"Who do you wish to kill?"
Just as Gu Qiushui was about to break down, a calm voice suddenly echoed through the hall. The voice seemed to contain the ultimate truth of the Great Dao, causing the terrifying pressure that filled the space to instantly dissipate into nothingness.
"PHEW!"
Gu Qiushui, Duanmu Xi, and the others all relaxed, feeling as if a heavy burden had been lifted. Their ample chests heaved dramatically, their eyes filled with joyous surprise.
They saw Hongmeng slowly walking in, his arm around Eastern Phoenix Yunxi’s delicate and smooth waist. Although he was only a Divine King—no, now a Divine Emperor—his intangible aura and majesty were like those of a young Venerable stepping forward.
"Was it you who killed the Red Emperor and Black Emperor?" The Black Tiger Saint’s sharp gaze immediately locked onto Hongmeng’s figure.
Although Hongmeng’s Divine Emperor Level was inconsistent with the information he had received, he didn’t dwell on it, simply assuming Hongmeng had previously concealed his Cultivation Level.
Facing the Black Tiger Saint’s gaze, even Eastern Phoenix Yunxi felt immense pressure. Hongmeng, however, seemed unfazed as he took his seat in the main seat of honor. He even reached out to pull Eastern Phoenix Yunxi into his embrace.
After settling in, he regarded the Black Tiger Saint with serene composure and said, "Indeed. I had those two overweening Lust Tigers killed."
As these words were spoken, Gu Qiushui, Duanmu Xi, and the other powerhouses broke out in a cold sweat for Hongmeng. He really dared to say anything! The Black Tiger Saint must be about to fly into a rage now. However, recalling that Hongmeng also had a God Master backing him, their inner unease and panic subsided slightly. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
As expected, as Hongmeng’s words fell, the temperature in the air instantly plummeted by several tens of degrees. Even though they had long transcended the river of time and space, they still felt a chill run down their spines, shivering involuntarily.
The Black Tiger Saint’s majestic and icy gaze bore into Hongmeng. It was as if an enormous, ferocious Dark Sacred Tiger was baring its fangs and claws, lunging towards them.
Eastern Phoenix Yunxi’s delicate body tensed, as if targeted by a fierce beast, ready to be devoured at any moment. But she remained silent. Even though she had already advanced to Dao Supreme. Unconsciously, she had come to rely on Hongmeng as her pillar of support. At this moment, she clearly deferred to him.
"HAHAHA! A true hero emerges from the youth!" Just when the atmosphere had frozen to an oppressive extreme, the Black Tiger Saint suddenly withdrew his gaze and aura, laughing heartily.
Seeing Hongmeng so composed and arrogant, he became even more convinced that the power behind Hongmeng was unfathomably deep. If he directly demanded an explanation from Hongmeng, it probably wouldn’t yield anything. And he didn’t want to completely sever relations with Hongmeng either.
So, the Black Tiger Saint said, "I have brought many talented young members of my clan today. It’s a rare occasion to meet a peerless young talent like you, Young Master Hong. How about a friendly spar?"
As he spoke, a burly young man with a powerful aura and astonishing vitality appeared in the hall, exuding the aura of an early-stage Divine Emperor Realm cultivator. Clearly, the Black Tiger Saint had specifically chosen this genius to match Hongmeng’s cultivation realm.
"Are you Hongmeng?" The burly young man’s eyes were golden, burning with fighting spirit as he stared at Hongmeng and challenged, "Do you dare to fight me?"
"You? Dare to fight My Lord?" An indifferent voice rang out as a tall, statuesque figure appeared beside Hongmeng.
She wielded the Sword of Fiery Flames, was clad in golden short-skirted armor, and behind her, golden wings flared like blazing fire.
Beautiful.
Noble.
Immaculate.
Divine.
"Who are you?" Hu Yao’s brows furrowed deeply as he scrutinized Angel Yan, his golden eyes filled with anger. No one had ever dared to show him such disrespect before.
"I am Angel Yan, a Divine country hero under My Lord’s command!" With the crimson Sword of Fiery Flames pointed forward, Angel Yan’s icy gaze fixed on Hu Yao.
Her life’s purpose was to draw her sword and fight for My Lord, to fold her wings for My Lord, loyal until her dying breath.
"You’re seeking death!" Hu Yao erupted in rage. He couldn’t believe that not only had Hongmeng declined the challenge, but he had also sent a mere underling; this was a blatant disregard for him.
"Dark Sky Canopy!"
Dao Law surged, and the hall was instantly swallowed by an endless darkness, shrouding Angel Yan within it.
Clearly, Hu Yao had a close relationship with the Black Tiger Saint, for he had comprehended the Path of Darkness.
"Sword of Heavenly Punishment!" Angel Yan’s golden angelic wings beat, and the Sword of Fiery Flames crackled with thunderous might, akin to the vast authority of heaven.
To judge the wicked, to annihilate heretics.
...
