206: Quasi-Saint Dragon Emperor

Desolate Realm, Stone Imperial City.

This was a massive city, more than ten times grander than Black Stone City in the Qingxuan Realm.

The city walls were built from strange, dark red boulders, towering into the clouds and exuding an ancient and heavy aura.

A flash of light erupted from the teleportation array in the center of the city square, and the figure of Qin Wushang appeared.

However, the moment he appeared, he felt countless gazes filled with Killing Intent.

The Human-Yao Race was extremely xenophobic; even in the Desolate Realm's Stone Imperial City, this was no different.

A Human Race individual with a pure aura, clearly an outsider, had actually used the teleportation array controlled by their Human-Yao Race. This undoubtedly enraged them.

"Hmm?"

Qin Wushang frowned slightly and looked around.

He saw that the area around the square was densely packed with figures. Most maintained a human form, but the traces of Yao Race characteristics on their bodies revealed their identity as the Human-Yao Race.

"Outsider of the Human Race! How did you obtain the usage rights for our clan's teleportation array?"

A God King wearing crimson armor with a tiger's head and a human body stepped out from the crowd and demanded sternly.

He pointed his crimson spear directly at Qin Wushang.

Qin Wushang's expression remained calm as he spoke the truth: "Naturally, I killed my way out of the Qingxuan Realm."

"What?"

"You slaughtered our clansmen in the Qingxuan Realm?"

Upon hearing this, the tiger-headed God King's eyes instantly ignited with raging fury, and the Demonic Qi around his body erupted violently.

"How bold! To intrude upon our territory and dare to commit murder! You shall not leave here today!"

"Rumble!"

A terrifying God King aura erupted, and the tiger-headed God King's body radiated a frightening Killing Intent.

Almost simultaneously, powerful figures shot up from all over the city, surrounding Qin Wushang.

A rough count revealed there were hundreds of them!

And they were all, without exception, powerful experts of the God King Realm!

"Hahahaha! An outsider Prodigy of the Human Race? Merely a Heavenly God Realm cultivator, what incredible audacity to dare to intrude upon our Stone Imperial City alone!"

"No matter what kind of Prodigy he is, once he arrives at our Stone Imperial City, a Dragon must coil up, and a Tiger must lie down!"

"Daring to kill our clansmen, we must extract his soul and refine his spirit to serve as a warning to others!"

"These damned outsiders come every so often to plunder our realm's resources and slaughter our people. Do they really think the Human-Yao Race is easy to bully?"

"City Lord! Give the order! Let the brothers each take a slash and mince him!"

"The flesh and blood of a Heavenly God Realm Prodigy will surely be a great tonic for our juniors!"

Hundreds of God Kings were stirred to excitement, their gazes toward Qin Wushang filled with cruelty and greed.

In their view, even if Qin Wushang was a heaven-sent genius capable of fighting above his rank as a Heavenly God Realm cultivator against ordinary God Kings...

...facing the siege of hundreds of peers, or even stronger opponents, he would surely face certain death!

Numbers were an overwhelming advantage!

All gazes eventually converged on the figure above the City Lord's Mansion, directly in front of the square.

That was an old man; his figure was not particularly tall, yet he gave off a feeling as steady as a mountain.

He wore a simple, dark golden robe. His face was thin, with deep wrinkles, but most striking were the pair of magnificent Dragon horns on his forehead.

The City Lord of Stone Imperial City, one of the overlords of the Human-Yao Race in this region, revered as the Dragon Emperor, a being infinitely close to a Saint.

"Quiet!"

The Dragon Emperor shouted. His slightly cloudy eyes had been fixed on Qin Wushang ever since he appeared, quietly observing him.

He furrowed his brows slightly, his fingers unconsciously gripping the Dragon blade in his hand.

"City Lord! What are you waiting for? He is merely a brat in the Heavenly God Realm!"

A hot-tempered, bear-headed God King couldn't help but urge him.

"This child is not simple."

He paused, his gaze still locked on Qin Wushang, and said slowly: "You are too young, excessively young."

"Your Qi is as deep and condensed as the sea; your Foundation is the most robust I have ever seen in my life."

"One-on-one, or even one against ten, I fear that none among us is his match."

When this was said, many God Kings showed expressions of disagreement, but out of respect for the Dragon Emperor's authority, they did not immediately refute it.

"Hmph! So what?"

The bear-headed God King said in a muffled, gruff voice, pointing at the swarming clansmen filling the sky and the ground.

"City Lord, we have one hundred and thirty-seven God Kings here! Even if we each spat once, we could drown him!"

"Why boost others' morale? Just attack!"

"Exactly! The advantage is ours! We aren't those pedantic Human Race members who care about one-on-one duels! Just do it!"

Another God King with wings on his back echoed, his eyes burning with intense Killing Intent.

Many God Kings also nodded one after another, eager to fight.

As long as the Dragon Emperor gave the order, they would swarm him and tear Qin Wushang into pieces.

Locked down by the Killing Intent of hundreds of God Kings, Qin Wushang remained calm, without any emotional fluctuation.

"Are you sure the advantage is really yours?"

Qin Wushang spoke. The question was abrupt, even somewhat inexplicable.

Facing a siege by hundreds of God Kings, where did a Heavenly God get the confidence to ask such a question?

However, the Dragon Emperor above was even more unsettled after hearing these words!

"You... do you have helpers lurking nearby?"

The Dragon Emperor asked in a deep voice.

The calmer Qin Wushang was, the more wary he became.

"No."

Qin Wushang met his gaze and spoke directly.

He had no helpers, but he had a Clone. Once the Myriad Self Dao Embryo was activated, unless a Saint took action, he was invincible.

"No?"

The Dragon Emperor's brows furrowed even tighter.

He had lived for over a thousand years and had seen many outsiders Prodigies; the calmer this youth was, the more abnormal it was!

"Clear a path."

After a long while, the Dragon Emperor made a decision that shocked everyone.

"Let him leave Stone Imperial City."

"What?"

"City Lord! You cannot!"

"Just let him go like this? Where is our clan's face? Are we not going to avenge the blood feud of our clansmen in the Qingxuan Realm?"

"Please, City Lord, reconsider!!"

For a moment, the God Kings could hardly believe their ears.

Let him go?

Facing an outsider Heavenly God who had broken into Stone Imperial City alone and even admitted to killing their clansmen, the City Lord actually chose to back down?

Even Qin Wushang felt a flash of surprise in his eyes.

"Shut up, all of you!"

The Dragon Emperor suddenly raised his voice, and a vast Dragon might erupted, sweeping across the world.

"I, the Emperor, say to clear a path and let him go! Whoever dares to disobey this order will be dealt with according to clan law!"

The God Kings were intimidated by this pressure. Although unwilling, they dared not openly defy the order and had to indignantly clear a path leading out of the city.

Qin Wushang took a deep look at the Dragon Emperor above.

"You are very smart and very cautious."

"This discernment has spared you and your Stone Imperial City from an undeserved disaster."

Upon hearing this, the string in the Dragon Emperor's heart tightened even further.

"My intuition tells me that you are very strong. Could you leave your name? Let me know what kind of sacred being I am letting go today."

Qin Wushang turned around and walked toward the outside of the city.

"Qin! Wu! Shang!"
