362: Chapter 362 Returns to the Realm of the Emperor Who Controls Fate, the situation in the Realm of the Emperor Who Controls Fate!

"Junior Sister!"

Jiang Yunxian's figure suddenly appeared, calling out to Su Xiyue.

"Senior Sister."

Su Xiyue's heart was in a mess at the moment, so she only nodded perfunctorily.

"Junior Sister, for some reason, I have an inexplicable irritability in my heart."

"Calculating the time, the Emperor Road should be closing soon. I will take you to the Place of Divine Return to wait for Little Linzi."

Jiang Yunxian said in a deep voice.

The Place of Divine Return was a place that all World Walkers participating in the Emperor Road had to pass through when leaving the Emperor Road.

This place had no restrictions, and any living being could go there.

"Mm."

Su Xiyue nodded absentmindedly.

Suddenly, she seemed to think of something and said, "By the way, Senior Sister, I heard transmissions from the outside world that many World Walkers seem to have died on the Emperor Road?"

"Yes, that's right. Aside from the destroyed Nangong Family, the life lamps of the World Walkers from Lingyu Tower and the Barbarian Tribe have not gone out."

"As for the other forces, it seems the life lamps of their World Walkers have all been extinguished!"

Jiang Yunxian said with a solemn expression.

"What?! So many World Walkers have actually died?!"

"Is the Emperor Road... truly this terrifying?!"

Hearing that more than ten World Walkers had died, Su Xiyue's heart tightened inexplicably, and endless worry gushed out like a spring.

"I don't know why, but in the past when the Emperor Road opened, there were never so many World Walkers falling."

"This time, I don't know what the reason is."

"At the moment, I just hope Little Linzi doesn't run into any trouble."

Jiang Yunxian said in a deep voice.

"Let's go to the Place of Divine Return and wait for your husband. I think no World Walker in the Emperor Road should be a match for him."

"By the way, Jiang Yunxian, can the Heavenly Dao of your White Jade Capital interfere with matters within the Emperor Road?"

Meng Qing suddenly asked.

Jiang Yunxian shook her head: "Probably not. In the past, there has never been a situation where the Heavenly Dao interfered with the Emperor Road."

"If the Heavenly Dao could really interfere with the Emperor Road, why would it issue an edict targeting Lin Ran before the World Walkers stepped onto the Emperor Road?"

"It would be better for it to act directly within the Emperor Road; that way, it could be done covertly without anyone knowing."

Meng Qing continued: "What if that edict was just used by the Heavenly Dao to lull us into a false sense of security?"

"After all, who can know for sure whether the Heavenly Dao can interfere with the Emperor Road?"

This question completely stumped Jiang Yunxian.

"Alright, alright, let's not make wild guesses here for now. The urgent matter is to hurry to the Place of Divine Return."

Su Xiyue urged.

Jiang Yunxian nodded slightly and took the lead in flying off toward the Place of Divine Return.

...

Zhangming Emperor Realm, Feixian Sect.

The Origin of Yang hidden here suddenly surged, and then slowly condensed into a figure with an immortal temperament.

"Heavenly Dao, those seventeen auxiliary heavenly mandate steles will be temporarily left in your hands. On the day This Holy Son returns to the White Jade Capital, that will be the time I take your life!"

Lin Ran's eyes turned fierce as he thought to himself.

The Heavenly Dao of the White Jade Capital has truly set up a massive chessboard; the whole world has been kept in the dark by him, and even he was no exception.

Since the Heavenly Dao of the White Jade Capital is so adept at spreading rumors and fanning the flames, the imperial dao divine crown likely isn't anything good either.

This Emperor Road, claimed to bury countless opportunities, turned out to be nothing more than a grand scam.

"Fortunately, I've collected all the information I needed. Dying once wasn't in vain."

A meaningful smile curled at the corner of Lin Ran's mouth.

He looked back and found that he was currently at Yin Yang Peak, right in front of his and Su Xiyue's residence.

However, although he and Su Xiyue had gone to the Emperor Road, he still sensed several familiar auras within this residence.

"Oh? I didn't expect Martial Aunt and the others to be here."

Lin Ran gave a wicked smile, intending to give Yan Ruyu and the others a surprise.

But just then, in the distant sky, two streaks of light suddenly swept over at high speed.

It was Xia Lingshuang and Li Huayin!

Having not seen them for a long time, Xia Lingshuang had completely refined that half of the taiyin heavenly fate stone. Not only had she reignited her divine fire and stepped into the God Realm, she was also close to constructing a divine bridge to enter the Divine Bridge Realm.

As for Li Huayin, she had also achieved the Great Emperor Realm and was currently at the fourth level of the Great Emperor Realm.

However, both were wearing silver armor, and the bloodstains on the armor had not even dried yet. Their bodies were surrounded by a towering Evil Qi, clearly having just experienced a bloody battle.

The moment they saw Lin Ran, they both froze for a moment. The Evil Qi on their faces vanished instantly without a trace as they shed their armor and threw themselves into Lin Ran's arms.

"Aran, you're finally back?! Where is Sister Su?"

Li Huayin tightly hugged the person she had been thinking of day and night, her eyes full of affection and longing, never leaving Lin Ran for a second.

"Revered Master is still in the White Jade Capital, and Meng Qing is there too."

"Because of some special reasons, I came back early."

"But it shouldn't take long before I return to the White Jade Capital again."

Lin Ran smiled and rubbed the tops of Li Huayin and Xia Lingshuang's heads.

"By the way, I see you are both wearing armor and seem to have gone through a great battle. Has something major happened in the Zhangming Emperor Realm?"

Hearing this, the smile on Xia Lingshuang's face suddenly froze, and her expression became very unsightly:

"Aran, you don't know. Ever since you left the Zhangming Emperor Realm for the White Jade Capital, Heavenly God Mountain has been acting like it's gone mad, trying to occupy the Zhangming Emperor Realm."

"Currently, of the Nine Great Provinces of our Zhangming Emperor Realm, three have already fallen. In these three fallen provinces, a Heavenly God Mountain has been established in each."

"And each Heavenly God Mountain is guarded by many Heavenly Palace Realm Experts, and there are even experts at the half-step Tianshu Divine Realm!"

Lin Ran's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect such a major upheaval to occur in the Zhangming Emperor Realm in the short time he was away.

"How is Yunzhou?"

He asked anxiously.

"Yunzhou's situation is also very bad. Although the leadership of the Feixian Sect has dismantled wave after wave of Heavenly God Mountain's offensives, continuing this stalemate is certainly not a good thing. We still need someone to truly step forward and take charge of the overall situation!"

As she spoke, Xia Lingshuang looked at Lin Ran with burning eyes.

Clearly, in her heart, Lin Ran was the person to take charge!

"So, you two were just out killing enemies?"

Lin Ran's expression was slightly startled.

"Yes, we are also people of the Zhangming Emperor Realm. For the matter of protecting the Zhangming Emperor Realm, we naturally have to contribute our part!"

Li Huayin said innocently.

Lin Ran shook his head slightly and said: "In the future, you should stay safely within the Sect."

"Letting you go out to fight always makes me feel uneasy."

"Matters like protecting the Zhangming Emperor Realm should be left to your husband."

"No! How can we let you alone..."

"Hmm?!"

Xia Lingshuang was about to object, but Lin Ran firmly grabbed her perky and rounded backside, nearly making her collapse weakly to the ground.
