12: A great hero? He's not worthy of it!
Chapter 12: A Great Hero? He Is Not Worthy!
“Are you three treating this Emperor as if I don't exist?” Upon seeing the emotional state of the three Demon Gods before him, Feng Xiu did not sit back and watch them fight.
The immense pressure from him erupted immediately, suppressing the three Demon Gods before him.
Even though they were powerful Demon Gods, in front of Feng Xiu, they had no ability to challenge him or resist. In just a moment, the immense pressure on them rendered them immobile. They were instantly suppressed, kneeling on the ground, appearing quite pained.
But no one dared to resist.
Only Saminegina, the Netherworld Demon God, who had made a smaller mistake, immediately pleaded loudly, “Your Majesty, please calm your anger!”
“Your Majesty, please calm your anger!” The Bear Demon God also immediately began to beg for mercy. Begging Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu for mercy was not shameful!
Only A'nan stubbornly supported his body, but his gaze was still fixed angrily on Saminegina. It was clear that if Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu hadn't been stopping him, he would have likely chosen to fight Saminegina directly.
Seeing this, Feng Xiu's anger had already dissipated, and the pressure from him gradually eased. The three Demon Gods also momentarily seemed dazed, letting out a sigh of relief, no longer in pain.
Saminegina then dared to speak, “This Autumn Offensive at Yulong Pass, I imagine, cannot continue.”
“Does Your Majesty have any plans?”
Hearing this, the Bear Demon God and A'nan also looked up.
“Autumn Offensive?” Feng Xiu's gaze lifted slightly upon hearing this, looking down at the three Demon Gods before him.
“Then what does Your Majesty mean?” the Bear Demon God anxiously asked.
The three Demon Gods all looked up at this moment.
“No need to ask further, this Emperor has his own arrangements,” Feng Xiu said indifferently, maintaining a calm and detached expression from beginning to end, high above them.
The three Demon Gods at this point didn't even have the thought of looking up and meeting his gaze; they didn't dare.
But recalling Long Xingyu's previous insult to him, the Bear Demon God gritted his teeth and said, “Your Majesty, the Autumn Offensive is already coming to an end, and the Autumn Offensive is quite important.”
“If we miss it, then—”
Before Oliver could finish his sentence, Feng Xiu's sword-like eyes quickly turned to him, and the powerful pressure of his Heaven Defying Demon Dragon Emperor descended upon Oliver.
Even if Oliver was strong, at this moment he felt a lump in his throat, unable to utter a single word. He could only widen his eyes, looking at Feng Xiu with dread.
“It's been a long time since I punished you, have you all come to believe this Emperor is old?”
“Oliver, when did it become your turn to question this Emperor's decisions?”
“This Emperor has his own arrangements, why do you need to interfere?”
Feng Xiu's voice was very cold, and endless majesty slowly revealed itself at this moment. The three Demon Gods felt a chill to their bones at this instant, and immediately abandoned any thought of continuing to argue; they feared death.
Feng Xiu's eyes remained icy. With a flick of his sleeve, he stood up and left the Demon Dragon Hall.
It wasn't until more than three minutes after he left that the three Demon Gods dared to let out a long breath, calming their emotions.
“Oliver, how dare you question His Majesty?”
“Have you forgotten His Majesty's temper?”
Saminegina at this point turned to the Bear Demon God, roaring, his face filled with unstoppable fear. Even though he was the Fourth Demon God, he was now slightly trembling.
Saminegina knew Feng Xiu's temper. The previous Netherworld Demon God was directly killed by Feng Xiu in a fit of rage simply for arguing with him. The previous Netherworld Demon God didn't even have a chance to resist, and Saminegina only got his position because of that situation.
And now, Oliver, this fool, dared to talk back to Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu. This made Saminegina's heart run cold just now, wishing he could just slap this fool to death.
A'nan didn't say anything, just quickly turned and left.
No matter how terrifying the Demon God Emperor was, he could at most make him temporarily lose his thoughts, but he could not hinder his desire to fight Long Xingyu.
Oliver, on the other hand, lay on the ground, crestfallen, ignoring Saminegina's curses.
He understood very well what Feng Xiu's tone and words meant just now.
He was being warned.
This unauthorized invasion of Yulong Pass, and countless past instances of disobedience and arbitrary actions, Oliver knew that Feng Xiu had actually been keeping track of them all, waiting for the day he had a certain thought—that would be the day Oliver would lose his life!
Demon God Emperor's bedchamber.
At this moment, Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu lay on his bed, his aura completely contained. Unlike his previous domineering presence, the current Feng Xiu was very gentle, like a refined and handsome man, with an ethereal aura.
In his hand, he held a photograph. The woman in the photo was also exquisitely beautiful, with a hint of softness. No matter how domineering the Demon God Emperor was to the outside world, when he looked at this photograph, his face was full of tenderness.
“Lingxuan…”
This woman was Bai Yue's mother.
Bai Lingxuan, also Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu's first love.
“At that time, I should have personally intervened, entered the human territory, and brought Yue'er back after she gave birth, instead of letting her stay there…” Feng Xiu thought to himself.
However, he then recalled the discussions of the three Demon Gods in the main hall just now.
He also noticed the name of the one who fought against the Bear Demon God and A'nan alone!
Long Xingyu!
“Long Xingyu, Yue'er's husband?”
“Has he finally reached the Ninth Rank Fourth Level?”
At this moment, Feng Xiu finally remembered something.
Ten years ago, when he took Bai Yue away, it was a period after they had gotten married.
After discovering that Bai Yue had been taken away by him, he had developed a heart knot, and his cultivation had stagnated. After reaching the peak of the Ninth Rank Third Level, he was unable to successfully break through due to changes in his mental state.
He was firmly stuck.
And now, he had actually reached the Ninth Rank Fourth Level.
It seemed his mental state had indeed become much smoother.
“However, a mere Ninth Rank Fourth Level is not enough to be my, Feng Xiu's, son-in-law.”
Feng Xiu thought this to himself, but he didn't pay too much attention to it.
A mere Ninth Rank Fourth Level, even with the blessing of a god seal throne, could still be easily destroyed.
As long as it wasn't a super Divine Seals like the Throne of God of Eternity and Creation, the other god seal thrones, even if they were Divine Seals, were merely inferior products in Feng Xiu's eyes, just imitations of the Eternal Throne.
Feng Xiu's heart was indifferent; he didn't truly regard Long Xingyu as important.
Even if Bai Yue's words from back then echoed in his mind: her husband was a great hero, a pillar of strength in this world.
Whether he was truly a great hero remained to be seen.
But right now, Long Xingyu—
Was not worthy!!
