127: Chapter 127 The heretical cultivator stirs up trouble! The scene became extremely chaotic!
The Old Imperial Lord's voice was distorted by extreme fear; every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
The question he asked caused the two hidden factions lurking in the shadows to suddenly hold their breath.
The deathly silence was torn apart by a sudden gasp.
"Great Emperor?"
Could this harmless-looking youth in green robes be a living Great Emperor?
How is that possible!
In the entire Cangxuan Dao Domain, it has been over one hundred thousand years since anyone heard of a living Great Emperor walking among the mortals!
But how can everything happening before their eyes be explained?
That was a genuine Quasi-Emperor, an existence standing at the pinnacle of the world, yet he was sent spitting blood from just one look from the other party.
If it were not for the personal arrival of a Great Emperor's Dharma Body, who could possess such heaven-defying means?
For a moment, in the shadows where the Shadow Demon Sect was hiding, the legs of several evil Cultivators began to cramp.
"I... we just... wanted to make a move against a Great Emperor?"
"It's over... it's completely over... we're going to die without a corpse left!"
"That idiot Shadow Devouring Ghost Lord, who can't accomplish anything but ruins everything! What kind of taboo existence did he provoke outside!"
Above the clouds, three figures shrouded in black robes also fell into an eerie silence.
After a long time, one of them spoke in a dry voice.
"The intelligence has a massive error."
Another person replied, their tone carrying a trace of trembling.
"The target's strength assessment needs to be redefined."
"A Great Emperor... this has completely exceeded the scope of what we can handle."
"Executive, should we retreat?"
"No," the leading figure denied the proposal. "Observe further. The organization's order is 'at any cost.' Perhaps... this Great Emperor is just passing by, or perhaps his current state has some kind of limitation we are unaware of."
The scene fell back into a suffocating silence.
Su Changge remained silent.
It wasn't that he was aloof; he truly didn't dare to speak.
He was just an empty shell right now, relying entirely on the System's special effects to hold up; every movement and every look was not under his own control.
If he accidentally revealed his weakness or his voice trembled, he would be instantly destroyed, body and soul, doomed forever.
More words mean more mistakes, fewer words mean fewer mistakes, and if you don't speak, you will never be wrong!
This was the number one blood-and-tear survival rule he had summarized since his Transmigration!
Therefore, he could only continue to maintain that deep and indifferent expression, staring quietly at the Old Imperial Lord with a look that said, "What are you barking about?"
In everyone's eyes, Su Changge's silence was interpreted with completely different meanings.
It was an admission.
It was even more... a silent contempt for the Old Imperial Lord's qualifications to ask questions.
Are you even worthy of asking about my Realm?
The Old Imperial Lord's heart sank inch by inch into an bottomless abyss.
The other party couldn't even be bothered to say a single word to him.
What kind of disdain, what kind of disregard this was!
Yet, he dared not feel the slightest bit of anger.
In the face of absolute strength, all anger is merely the incompetent wailing of the weak.
What to do?
Fight? With what would he fight?
Run? With a Great Emperor right in front of him, where could he run to?
Just as the Old Imperial Lord's Dao Heart was collapsing and he was in a dilemma.
An eerie, sinister laugh broke the solidified air at a highly inappropriate moment.
"Hehehe... what Great Emperor, what Quasi-Emperor, you're all just putting on a show here!"
"Friend from the Primeval Imperial Clan, this brat must have used some kind of one-time supreme secret treasure to bluff! Why don't you and I join forces to kill this brat first, and we can split the Opportunity on him equally, how about that?!"
The voice came from the valley where the Shadow Demon Sect was hiding.
The speaker was the leader of the Shadow Demon Sect this time, a sinister old man with bizarre demonic tattoos carved all over his face.
In his view, this stalemate had to be broken.
The Primeval Imperial Clan was clearly afraid of damaging something valuable and dared not move again.
He decided to add fuel to the fire and muddy the waters completely!
As long as things became chaotic, their Shadow Demon Sect would have a chance to fish in troubled waters!
When the Old Imperial Lord heard this, he nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood.
Idiot!
Where the hell did such a peerless idiot come from!
Didn't you see that even I, a Quasi-Emperor, have been suppressed to the point of being unable to move?
Join forces?
I'm afraid you'll trick me to death if we join forces!
However, before the Old Imperial Lord could curse out loud.
The Shadow Demon Sect leader had already launched a surprise attack!
He firmly believed in his judgment; there could not be such a young Great Emperor in this world, this must be some kind of optical illusion!
"Junior! Taste my Nether Bone-Melting Smoke!"
The sinister old man suddenly opened his mouth, and a jet of dark green, foul-smelling poisonous smoke spewed out, like the most insidious venomous python, bypassing the Old Imperial Lord in front at an extremely tricky angle and lunging straight for Su Changge's face!
This smoke was extremely vicious, specifically designed to defile Magic Treasure and corrode the Divine Soul; ordinary Cultivators would die the moment they touched it!
Su Changge caught a glimpse of that green light out of the corner of his eye, and his heart instantly jumped into his throat!
Holy crap!
There's another backstabber?!
He wanted to dodge, but his body was fixed in place by that majestic "Emperor's Aura," and he couldn't even move a finger!
It's over. Pretending to be cool leads to getting struck by lightning; the ancients did not deceive me!
Watching as the poisonous smoke was about to hit his face!
"Moo—"
An extremely dissatisfied cow's lowing sounded leisurely.
The Old Yellow Ox, which had been quietly carrying Su Changge and seemingly asleep, appeared to have been awakened by the stench.
It flicked its tail with extreme impatience.
An extremely casual movement.
But under the blessing of the System's indescribable great power, this flick triggered a collapse of heaven and earth!
The moment the cow's tail swept through the air, it was no longer flesh and blood, but transformed into a whip of Law entwined with golden divine chains!
On the whip, ancient Dao patterns flickered, as if branded with the supreme truths from the beginning of the Universe!
"Snap!"
An extremely crisp explosion resounded through the sky!
The golden divine whip, at a speed that transcended the concept of time and space, struck that dark green poisonous smoke with absolute precision.
The invincible Nether Bone-Melting Smoke couldn't even make a sound before it was whipped into evaporating out of thin air, returning completely to nothingness!
The remaining power of the divine whip did not diminish.
It tore through the long sky, carrying the terrifying power to destroy everything, and lashed down fiercely toward the valley where the Shadow Demon Sect was hiding!
"Boom!!!"
The Void Realm cracked in response, and pitch-black cracks like spiderwebs instantly covered the entire valley!
The Mountain Protection Grand Array used to hide their figures was struck as if by divine punishment, and together with that space, it was whipped into pieces!
"Ahhh—"
Screams rang out in unison.
The next moment, an unbelievable scene appeared.
Dozens of black shadows were forcibly "dragged" out of the shattered Void Realm by an irresistible force, smashing onto both sides of the official road like hail, wailing everywhere!
Each one of them was covered in dust, blood overflowing from their mouths, their eyes filled with the bewilderment and horror of "Who am I? Where am I?"
What happened?
How were we exposed?
What was that just now?!
The entire scene fell into an eternal-like silence for the third time.
The Old Imperial Lord stared blankly at the group of disheveled evil Cultivators, then looked at the Old Yellow Ox under Su Changge, which had finished flicking its tail and lowered its head to graze on the roadside grass again; his old face instantly drained of all color.
He understood!
At this moment, he completely understood!
What disruption?
What fishing in troubled waters?
This group of evil Cultivators was simply an ambush that this Senior had discovered long ago and deliberately left behind!
He first used his Aura to suppress me, then lured these idiots into making a move, and then, through the hand of his mount, wiped them all out in one fell swoop with thunderous momentum!
This is... killing the chicken to warn the monkey!
This is a warning to my Primeval Imperial Clan!
A mount, by casually flicking its tail, could shatter the Void Realm and suppress dozens of Evil Path experts.
Then, just how terrifying is the true form of this Senior?
The more the Old Imperial Lord thought, the more afraid he became; his Quasi-Emperor body trembled like a leaf in the wind.
On the other side, the Shadow Demon Sect leader, who had just struggled to climb up from the ground, also saw the pale-faced Old Imperial Lord.
Then he looked at the "dumpling filling" lying all over the ground on his side.
He also understood!
He also completely understood!
Very well!
You thick-browed and big-eyed Primeval Imperial Clan!
No wonder you just stood there without moving after being beaten until you spat blood!
So you were in cahoots with this brat!
You deliberately put on a double act, one playing the good guy and one playing the bad guy, just to trick my Shadow Demon Sect people out and wipe us all out!
"Primeval Imperial Clan!!"
The Shadow Demon Sect leader pointed at the Old Imperial Lord and let out a roar of extreme grief and indignation.
"You have no martial virtue!!"
The scene instantly became chaotic to the extreme.
The Primeval Imperial Clan thought the Shadow Demon Sect was Su Changge's "chicken."
The Shadow Demon Sect thought the Primeval Imperial Clan was Su Changge's "shill."
Both sides glared at each other with a look that said, "Even you, thick-browed and big-eyed one, have betrayed us."
And the originator, Su Changge, sat as steady as Mount Tai on the back of the ox, becoming the only pure "outsider" in this earth-shattering misunderstanding.
Watching this absurd scene before him, only one thought swirled crazily in his mind.
"No way... this brain-supplementing ability... also works?!"
