Section 172

“Alright, you’ve already achieved Half God, and becoming a Martial God is just a matter of time. Come with me.”

The middle-aged man beckoned to Summer Bright: “No matter what, You are a Martial God who broke through in our Limitless God Domain, and You should serve our Limitless God Domain. Come with me to the God Domain to register.”

Summer Bright was silent for a moment, then cupped his hands and said: “Reporting to Lord Emissary, can You give me half an hour? I still have some private matters to attend to.”

“That is natural. Our God Domain is not unreasonable. Huaguang Huafu, You two follow this newly promoted Lord Martial God and handle it.”

The two attendants beside the green-robed middle-aged man nodded, then followed beside Summer Bright.

Summer Bright did not speak. He knew this was surveillance, but he did not dare to point it out.

Summer Bright walked to Xia Naiwen's side. The green-robed middle-aged man's body trembled slightly, and everyone resumed their movements.

“Naiwen, after I leave, You will be the Xia Emperor of the Great Xia Empire. You have also broken through to the Martial Emperor Realm, so You can sit firmly in this position.”

Summer Bright patted Xia Naiwen's shoulder, directly passing the imperial throne to him.

“Father, You…”

Hearing this, Xia Naiwen felt that something was not quite right. Why did this sound like a kind of farewell?

But Summer Bright gave him a look, which stopped him from finishing his sentence.

“The Empire will depend entirely on You in the future. You must be a good Xia Emperor. You can do it.”

Summer Bright patted his shoulder again.

Chapter 211: Summer Bright is Taken Away, What is the Meaning of Breaking Through?

Xia Naiwen nodded heavily. He did not make any promises, but the determination in his eyes already explained everything.

And the previous Xia Emperors and Xia Feng.

Summer Bright said goodbye to each of them one by one.

No one knew what it would be like to go to the God Domain.

But judging from the fact that there were no Martial Gods in the current Empire, there was a chance that Summer Bright would not return.

That was why he made the final farewell so solemn.

The Ten Great Xia Emperors looked very grim. They had finally waited for a Martial God to appear in the Empire, and they had only been guided by Summer Bright for one day. Now they were parting.

Especially the oldest seventh and Eighth Xia Emperors, who had at most five thousand years left to live.

When he reached Xia Feng, Summer Bright said nothing, just looked at him deeply.

Xia Feng also lowered his head and remained silent.

Soon, after saying goodbye, Summer Bright said to the two attendants beside him: “Alright.”

The two attendants nodded and led Summer Bright to the green-robed Wu Shen.

“Okay, since You have finished your matters, let's go back.”

This Wu Shen nodded, then he placed his hand on Summer Bright's shoulder, and the group of four leaped towards the sky.

A streak of residual light flashed, and the four of them disappeared without a trace.

Wu Shen, terrifying to the extreme.

Just the speed of travel alone exceeded that of a Heaven Rank Ninth Level Martial Emperor by more than ten times.

Looking at the empty sky, Xia Feng's hand holding the storage ring couldn't help but tighten again.

About five minutes later, Summer Bright and the green-robed Wu Shen had passed through several Empires.

“I heard that when the Heavenly Tribulation appeared in this area, a Blood Dragon was killed. Could it be the one You went through the tribulation with?”

Suddenly, the green-robed middle-aged man changed the subject, and Summer Bright's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.

“…”

“Yes.”

Summer Bright was silent for a moment, but in the end, he chose to tell the truth.

“Very impressive. The strength of that Blood Dragon was comparable to a Huang Realm First Level Wu Shen. Although its combat power was very ordinary, it was indeed a genuine Wu Shen.”

“Do You have anything You want to say?”

“Nothing to say.”

Summer Bright's face instantly turned cold. He raised his head and looked at the green-robed Wu Shen, speaking neither servile nor overbearing.

“Oh?”

This answer made the green-robed Wu Shenstunned for a moment, but then, he tilted his head back and laughed heartily.

“Good, good, good. It doesn't matter if You don't want to speak. When You come back to the God Domain with me later, I have ways to make You tell me how You broke through to the Divine Realm!”

“Cooperate well with us, and You can become a promising new star Martial Emperor in the God Domain. If You stubbornly refuse to speak, your fate will be miserable.”

The green-robed Wu Shen's face instantly became extremely sinister and cold. He turned his head and stared intently into Summer Bright's eyes.

But Summer Bright lowered his head, and even closed his eyes.

“Very good.”

A voice sounded, as if coming from an ice cellar.

…

With Summer Bright gone, the atmosphere in the Great Xia Empire suddenly became dead silent.

They had not yet fully enjoyed the joy of having a Half God expert, and this Half God had been taken away.

The previous Xia Emperors had different thoughts, but everyone's face was ashen.

If the final outcome of a Martial Emperor breaking through to Martial God was to be taken away by people from the God Domain.

Then was this Breakthrough… really meaningful?

They still didn't know what Summer Bright's situation would be, but everyone present at the time was shrewd and knew exactly what Summer Bright's farewell meant.

The ones in the worst mood were Xia Feng and Xia Naiwen and his wife.

Xia Feng knew the whole story. Although he didn't know what Summer Bright would encounter in the Limitless God Domain, his preparedness was always correct.

That night, Summer Bright had already explained clearly to Xia Feng.

If the people from the Limitless God Domain did not release him within half a year, then he was most likely under house arrest.

Although he didn't know how capable a Martial God was, if he could perceive even a little bit, it would be a disaster for the Great Xia Empire.

The Void Cauldron remained with Xia Feng. Even if they knew Summer Bright possessed a Divine Artifact, as long as Summer Bright didn't reveal any information about the Void Cauldron, he would be safe.

Some things, if spoken, would lead to death first.

If You don't say anything, the trump card is with You, and he can do nothing.

Instead, it will guarantee your safety.

Having cultivated to Heaven Rank Ninth Level Martial Emperor twice and become the leader of an Empire, Summer Bright's planning in all aspects was still very thorough.

Xia Naiwen became the second Xia Emperor under the crowd's support, handling the Empire's official documents and affairs daily.

Huang Xiaowen also became the Empress, but they couldn't be happy at all.

Xia Feng and the Ten Girls stayed by their side for a long time. At such times, only family affection and companionship could help resolve their sadness.

Xia Feng did not tell anyone about the Void Cauldron. At this time, the more people who knew, the more danger the other party would face.

Soon, a week passed.

During these days, Xia Feng had been deep in thought about the path to Martial God that Summer Bright had told him.

The experience passed down to him over ten thousand years was enough for him to comprehend for a long time.

Instead, he was not in a hurry about his Realm.

Surprisingly, seven of the previous Xia Emperors did not enter death seclusion again. Since Summer Bright was taken away, their goals began to become unclear.

Summer AzureSun once told Xia Feng while in a daze in front of the Imperial Dragon Hall that instead of dying of old age in seclusion without feeling anything, it would be better to quietly enjoy the last five thousand years like this.

Becoming a Martial God did not seem to be the end. Even if this path of near-certain death was walked, it did not seem as good as imagined.

Xia Feng did not say much.

Perhaps, only when Summer Bright returned safely would they regain their faith in the meaning of cultivation.

Hopefully, that day will come.

Although the mindset of the seven people changed, there were still three who chose to enter death seclusion.

The three of them were Heaven Rank Martial Emperors with lower Realms. Some wanted to improve their strength to catch up with the Old Ancestor as soon as possible, while others were still unyielding in their desire to seek the unknown Martial God Realm.

Only Summer Eastsea, he entered the stone door quietly without giving any reason before going into seclusion.

During these seven days, Xia Feng cultivated with the Ten Girls and his parents.

The Realms of the Ten Girls also advanced rapidly. While improving their Realms, Xia Feng also explained to them the Heavenly Dao that Summer Bright had told him.

With Realm and experience grasped simultaneously, the Ten Girls' cultivation time was also significantly reduced.

But in these seventy thousand years, their strength also improved very quickly, simultaneously becoming Earth Rank Eighth Level Martial Emperors, on par with Xia Feng.
