200: Chapter 190 Gu Jixiao arrives, the ancient celestial venerable flees in haste
Looking back at Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable, he was instantly overjoyed to see that the two of them had fallen into a disadvantage.
If he could kill them and seize these two immortal emperor artifacts, his strength would soar, making him the most powerful existence in Chaos!
Gu Jixiao: "Bullshit!"
Just as Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable was immersed in the thought of seizing the two immortal emperor artifacts and becoming the most powerful existence in Chaos, a figure suddenly appeared before him.
Upon seeing that figure, Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable couldn't help but be startled; the newcomer was Ancient Heavenly Venerable.
At this moment, Ancient Heavenly Venerable was panting as he looked at him. Seeing Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable entangled in combat with Yang Gufeng and the other, he wanted to help Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable kill them.
After all, in Ancient Heavenly Venerable's view, now that he had completely fallen out with Gu Jixiao, there was no need to give Gu Jixiao any Face. It would be for the best if he could kill Yang Gufeng and the other to seize the immortal emperor artifacts in their hands.
But Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable didn't know this.
In his view, he was finally about to finish off Yang Gufeng and the other to seize the two immortal emperor artifacts, yet Ancient Heavenly Venerable had suddenly appeared, wanting to meddle.
If this wasn't trying to steal his immortal emperor artifacts, what was it?
Thus, Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable was immediately displeased and glared at Ancient Heavenly Venerable, shouting angrily.
"Ancient, what are you trying to do? These are mine!"
Hearing Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable's words, Ancient Heavenly Venerable was stunned, but he soon understood his thoughts. He didn't have time to explain much and could only state everything concisely.
However, after hearing Ancient Heavenly Venerable's words, Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable's Face still bore a look of extreme suspicion.
After all, those were two immortal emperor artifacts; he couldn't help but overthink.
Seeing that Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable was still suspicious, Ancient Heavenly Venerable grew anxious. "What are you still doubting? Hurry up and act, otherwise, that fellow Gu Jixiao will be here soon."
"No need to act, I'm already here."
Just then, a figure appeared in front of Yang Gufeng and the other, shielding them behind him.
The newcomer was none other than Gu Jixiao.
The moment he saw Gu Jixiao, Ancient Heavenly Venerable's expression changed drastically. He only had time to tell Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable to run before fleeing without another word.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"This subordinate has failed in his duties, please punish me, Your Majesty!"
When Yang Gufeng and the other saw Gu Jixiao appear, their previously hanging hearts finally settled. Without a word, they knelt on one knee before Gu Jixiao.
Gu Jixiao, however, waved his hand dismissively. "You've done well enough. Leave the rest to me."
Looking at Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable nearby, the moment Gu Jixiao arrived, he also knew in his heart that he was likely destined to miss out on these two immortal emperor artifacts.
However, seeing Ancient Heavenly Venerable flee immediately upon seeing Profound Immortal Lu, his heart was filled with confusion. Was this Gu Jixiao really that powerful? To actually make Ancient Heavenly Venerable flee in such a panic.
One must know that the Laws Gu Jixiao mastered were only a bit over five hundred, while they both possessed over six hundred.
Even if Gu Jixiao had a few more immortal emperor artifacts than them, they had immortal emperor artifacts too. Was there really a need to be so afraid of Gu Jixiao?
But soon, Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable realized how catastrophically wrong he was.
Seeing that he didn't flee, Gu Jixiao directly raised his hand and sacrificed an immortal emperor artifact to seal off the surrounding space.
Last time, he had been careless and failed to sacrifice an immortal emperor artifact immediately to imprison Ancient Heavenly Venerable.
But this time, he wouldn't make the same mistake.
Seeing Gu Jixiao actually seal the surrounding space, a strong sense of unease suddenly welled up in Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable's heart.
"Gu Jixiao, what exactly do you want to do? Are you not afraid that I'll fight you to the death?"
Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable brought out his immortal emperor artifact, looking at Gu Jixiao with a solemn expression, and then spoke threateningly.
But clearly, Gu Jixiao wasn't afraid of his threat; a playful smirk even appeared on his Face.
"Oh, fight to the death? If you think you're qualified to do so, then come and try."
After saying that, Gu Jixiao directly sacrificed an immortal emperor artifact and sent it flying toward Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable.
Seeing Gu Jixiao take the initiative to attack, a look of terror couldn't help but appear on Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable's Face.
But now he had no room to retreat and could only brace himself to fight Gu Jixiao to the end.
Even so, Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable didn't believe he would lose here.
After all, he was a Quasi-Immortal Emperor who had mastered a total of six hundred and seventy-five Laws and held an immortal emperor artifact. If they truly fought, the outcome was still uncertain.
What Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable didn't expect, however, was that Gu Jixiao would control the immortal emperor artifact to fly right in front of him and then directly detonate it.
"What! You!"
Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable's Face changed instantly, and then he was swallowed by the aftershocks of the immortal emperor artifact's self-detonation.
As for Gu Jixiao's side, because he had used an immortal emperor artifact to protect the three of them in advance, the power of the self-detonation didn't affect them.
Gu Jixiao looked toward Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable with an extremely calm expression, as if he didn't believe Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable would perish from the self-detonation of just one immortal emperor artifact.
As the aftershocks of the self-detonation dissipated, Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable's figure appeared before Gu Jixiao in an extremely wretched state.
Looking at Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable's body, the immortal emperor artifact had already transformed into a suit of armor to protect him.
But even so, Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable still suffered significant injuries, and clear cracks had appeared on the surface of the immortal emperor artifact, evidently on the verge of shattering.
Looking at Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable again, his previous arrogant and unyielding appearance had completely vanished.
"Stop, stop! I surrender! I'll even hand over the Monster Realm! Please, spare me!"
Now, Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable finally understood why Ancient Heavenly Venerable was so afraid.
You should have said earlier that Gu Jixiao would use immortal emperor artifacts to blow people up! If I had known, I would have fled with you without a second word.
Unfortunately, the surrounding space had already been sealed by an immortal emperor artifact. Even if Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable wanted to run, he was powerless to do so.
Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable knew very well in his heart that if it happened one more time, his immortal emperor artifact would shatter, and he would shatter along with it.
Based on the number of immortal emperor artifacts Gu Jixiao had displayed that day, he believed Gu Jixiao really would take out another immortal emperor artifact to detonate just to kill him.
Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable originally thought that by surrendering and even handing over the Monster Realm, he could get Gu Jixiao to stop.
Unfortunately, his timing was wrong. If there were no Demon Venerable as a servant, and if Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable hadn't plotted against his subordinates, then perhaps he might have spared Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable.
But unfortunately, since he already had the Demon Venerable as a servant, and Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable dared to plot against his subordinates, his fate was already sealed.
And that was—death!
