309: Chapter 309 The Emperor's Path Opens, the Heavenly Dao's Target, and Cang Huan After Being Disciplined

"Hahaha... This is truly heaven helping me!"

"As long as I take Possession of this corpse, this ancestor can make a comeback!"

"At that time, combined with the Family's Cultivate resources, I will wait for the Emperor Road to open, intercept someone to seize a heavenly mandate stele, and then I can step onto the Emperor Road to fight for the imperial dao divine crown!"

Nangong Wentian laughed towards the sky, turning into a streak of light and flying towards the corpse within the Qi of the Wicked Dao.

Of course, what he didn't know was that the Nangong Family had already been wiped out; in the entire Nangong Family, he was the only survivor.

If he knew this, he would probably go completely mad!!

...

On this day, the entire White Jade Capital suddenly experienced a commotion, trembling incessantly.

The Heavenly Dao descended, opening a brilliant and radiant path above the firmament.

This path to heaven traversed eighteen Ancient Stars, each containing Opportunity or dangers.

And this path to divinity was the so-called Emperor Road!!

"It's the Emperor Road! The Emperor Road has opened!"

"Quick! Summon my son and have him head to the Emperor Road to fight for the heavenly mandate!"

"Call my successor to charge into the Emperor Road and return as a god!!"

Almost all forces scrambled at this moment to bring their World Walker, escorting them into the Emperor Road.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly!

Brilliant golden light fell from the sky, covering the entire White Jade Capital.

An edict broke through the clouds, radiating piercing golden light.

"Kill Lin Ran to obtain the heavenly mandate!"

Just seven short words, yet they made all the forces and Walkers of the World completely excited.

What was their purpose for entering the Emperor Road?

Wasn't it for the imperial dao divine crown and to fight for the heavenly mandate?!

But now, as long as they killed Lin Ran, they could obtain the heavenly mandate.

This temptation was undeniably massive!

Furthermore, while on the Emperor Road, nothing is known to the outside world.

Even if they killed Lin Ran, who would know?

These Walkers of the World naturally didn't fear Jiang Yunxian coming for revenge!

"Kill Lin Ran to obtain the heavenly mandate? Interesting..."

In Liantian City, Wentian Sect, a youth in plain robes with an ordinary appearance looked up at the edict in the sky, a wicked smile curling on his lips.

"Hahaha..."

"That damned Lin Ran actually provoked the Heavenly Dao to the point where it can't help but target him!"

In Manhuang City, among the Barbarian Race, Tribe Leader looked at the edict and couldn't help but laugh loudly.

His face was filled with killing intent, and his eyes held a smug smile, as if he could already see the scene of Lin Ran being surrounded and hacked to pieces by the Walkers of the World!

He hated Lin Ran; that went without saying.

If not for Lin Ran, his son Cang Huan wouldn't have become the neither-human-nor-ghost mess he was now!

"Father, don't worry. I will definitely make Lin Ran wish he were dead."

Cang Huan suddenly appeared behind Tribe Leader at some point, silent as a ghost.

His left hand gently climbed onto Tribe Leader's broad, thick shoulder, while his right hand softly caressed the other's skin.

Tribe Leader was so frightened that he tensed up instantly.

See that? This is what his son looks like now after being trained!

Ever since leaving Ningxiang Tower and being brought back to the Barbarian Race, Cang Huan had been in this state, "getting handsy" with him all day, as if he wanted to have a vigorous fencing match between father and son.

Every night when he slept, he didn't dare relax in the slightest, fearing that if he let his guard down, something slippery would poke in from behind.

During this period, he could be said to be unable to sleep at night, living in constant fear!

"Good, good. My son, remember, you must cut Lin Ran into a thousand pieces! Don't forget who turned you into this!"

Tribe Leader, covered in cold sweat, pushed Cang Huan's hand away and laughed awkwardly.

"Yes, Father. Escort me to the Emperor Road now. I can't wait to see Lin Ran!"

A profound look filled Cang Huan's eyes.

It was indeed hatred, yet within that hatred, there seemed to be a hint of anticipation, making it very complex.

But there was no doubt that Cang Huan had been transformed from the straightest of straight men into someone as bent as could be by Tower Master Yu Ruchun.

"Let's go!"

Tribe Leader gave the order and led a group of experts to escort Cang Huan into the Emperor Road.

Of course, these forces could also choose not to escort these Walkers of the World to the Emperor Road.

For example, the World Walker from Aoshi Tower, being naturally aloof and conceited, believed there was no need for an escort and headed to the Emperor Road alone.

Aoshi Tower was also an oddity in the entire White Jade Capital; though the people in the tower were powerful, every one of them was naturally arrogant.

When their World Walker said no escort was needed, they really didn't provide one.

The result of this choice was that the World Walker from Aoshi Tower was intercepted and killed by a Mysterious Child before the entrance to the Emperor Road, resulting in the heavenly mandate stele being snatched away by that Mysterious Child.

The entire Aoshi Tower immediately regretted it deeply and even issued a Bounty Order: as long as someone could take that child's head, they could go to Aoshi Tower to claim a heavy reward!

Instantly!

The entire White Jade Capital fell into another wave of turmoil.

Intercepting and killing a major force's World Walker before the entrance to the Emperor Road and stealing the heavenly mandate stele—although this had happened once before, it was still shocking!

After all, this was the rhythm of offending a force and entering a life-and-death struggle with them!

If caught, one would probably be hacked into mincemeat!

Kunlun City, Kunlun Sect.

Lin Ran walked out of the Qing Xian Residence with a calm expression and slowly looked up at the edict in the sky.

"Kill me to obtain the heavenly mandate? I didn't expect that even now, the Heavenly Dao of the White Jade Capital is still trying to mess with me."

Lin Ran chuckled.

"Sooner or later, I'll overthrow this Heavenly Dao!"

Jiang Yunxian didn't say much, but her words were full of domineering aura.

She was truly pissed off!

Being so arrogant right in front of her, making such grand proclamations for the young Prodigies to surround and kill Lin Ran—this was simply not giving her, the number one person in the White Jade Capital, any face!

One day, she would definitely overthrow this damned Heavenly Dao and become the number one person in the White Jade Capital in the truest sense!

Su Xiyue looked at Lin Ran with a face full of worry and said:

"Rebellious Disciple, this trip to the Emperor Road is already fraught with danger, and now the Heavenly Dao is making trouble. Your crisis will be greater than others'. Remember to be cautious!"

Hearing this, Lin Ran nodded slightly. Although his tone was calm, it was full of pride:

"Revered Master, don't worry. Although the Heavenly Dao is making trouble, I don't take it seriously."

"As for those Walkers of the World? Heh, they are even more laughable to me!"

"If they want to step on my head to seize the heavenly mandate, they'll have to see if they have the life for it!"

Meng Qing smiled with narrowed eyes: "I naturally believe my husband has the ability. Husband, just kill them. Kill them as they come, one by one, or in pairs!"

"With us backing you up, Husband, you don't need to fear any of that nonsense."

Lin Ran smiled and pinched Meng Qing's cheek: "Meng Qing still understands me best."

"However, before entering the Emperor Road, I need to return to the Zhangming Emperor Realm."
