Chapter 1268: Defeating the Emperor with One Palm
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“You all may leave, and I have no intention to kill. I came here today to discuss the matter of the wilderness with Emperor Lu!”
That person spoke indifferently. His body emitted pressure faintly, and his lifeblood surged to the sky, causing people’s souls to tremble.
Even his existence caused the Heavenly Court’s defensive barrier to automatically awaken.
Even if the Heavenly Court’s elites wanted to block him, their bodies would weaken in the face of such an existence. They did not even dare to think of fighting against him.
But even so, the elites of the Heavenly Court still blocked his path.
“All of you can leave!”
Suddenly, Lu Xuan’s gentle voice came from the sky. The elites of the Heavenly Court also felt as if they had been pardoned. They quickly retreated like the tide in the water.
Lu Xuan, who was wearing a moon-white royal robe, appeared in the void.
“Greetings, Emperor Lu!”
The elites of the Heavenly Court bowed one after another.
With Lu Xuan present, the backbone of these Heavenly Court elites had returned.
“Fellow practitioner, you’re finally willing to show yourself!” Lu Xuan said calmly. He had already recognized the figure in front of him.
“Emperor Lu, you recognize this poor priest?” At this moment, that figure looked at Lu Xuan with some doubt on his face.
“That’s right. How can I not recognize the mighty Rain Emperor!” Lu Xuan said indifferently.
Hearing Lu Xuan’s words, that person’s expression instantly changed. He didn’t expect that after so many years, there would still be someone who remembered him.
What was even stranger was that Lu Xuan actually knew him. If it was the Moon Empress who knew him, that would be very normal. How could Lu Xuan know him?
He had attained cultivation a long, long time ago. Lu Xuan couldn’t know about his existence.
Lu Xuan said, “I know that the Rain Emperor offended Dongfang Heavenly Emperor. To avoid him, you hid in the wilderness and secretly gathered some strengths. You want to take revenge on Dongfang Heavenly Emperor in the future!”
When the Rain Emperor heard Lu Xuan’s words, his eyes immediately lit up. This was because Lu Xuan had actually seen through his background.
Back then, he had offended the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor. It was like a layer of his skin had been peeled off before he managed to escape. Later on, after the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor left the Heavenly Court, he returned to the Heaven Realm and secretly recruited his subordinates in the wilderness.
Slowly accumulating his strength, he was prepared to overturn the Heavenly Court!
This was also an important reason why the wilderness had been able to wreak havoc in the Heavenly Court for many years. This was because an Imperial Emperor-level expert was hiding behind them. Moreover, he had concealed his strength well and was always able to resolve the Heavenly Court’s invasion at the most critical moment.
In his previous life, the Rain Emperor had caused an enormous incident when the Heaven Realm and the other Realm were fighting, almost conquering the Heavenly Court.
This was also the fundamental reason why Lu Xuan would never allow such a thing to happen again.
“Fellow practitioner, are you trying to get rid of me for the sake of the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor?” The Rain Emperor had already realized that something was wrong. He had already sensed it. The Heavenly Court had gone all out in this invasion of the wilderness this time and had made it so high-profile, it was likely that a large part of the reason was to attract him to appear.
“You’re overthinking. I don’t have such a deep relationship with Dongfang Heavenly Emperor!” Lu Xuan said indifferently. “However, I don’t allow any uncontrollable factions in the Heaven Realm. Rain Emperor, I’ll give you a choice. Either you submit to me, join the Heavenly Court, and serve me. Otherwise, just die!”
A furious expression flashed across the Rain Emperor’s face. He was an Imperial Emperor, after all. Although he was inferior to Dongfang Heavenly Emperor, he could not allow others to control him.
Lu Xuan wanting him to submit was simply wishful thinking!
“Emperor Lu, you are going too far!”
The Rain Emperor said coldly.
“Three moves. If you can take three moves from me, I will let this matter go. If not, you will join the Heavenly Court and serve me. How about it?” Lu Xuan said indifferently.
“Alright, three moves then!”
The Rain Emperor shouted coldly. If he couldn’t even take three moves, so what if he submitted to Lu Xuan.
The Rain Emperor discovered that he was already in the void of the universe, far away from the Heavenly Court in the next instant. Only then did he realize that he had been transferred out without him knowing.
This was simply a huge joke.
He was an Imperial Emperor, yet he had been quietly taken away by someone.
He mobilized all the Mana and lifeblood in his body without any hesitation, raising his strength to the extreme. A long spear appeared in his hand, and countless laws danced with a thrust of the spear. It turned into a terrifying phenomenon, like a giant pillar that supported the sky, and smashed towards Lu Xuan.
This attack shattered countless stars and tore open a vast space crack.
Lu Xuan did not even look at it. He just pushed out a simple palm. It was such a simple palm, incomparably huge, covering the sky and the sun. Even the big stars could be easily grasped in his hand.
As for the spear light, when it came into contact with the giant hand, it actually shattered inch by inch, turning into a sky full of light, scattering in all directions in the universe.
Thereafter, the palm directly hit Rain Emperor’s body.
Rain Emperor’s expression changed abruptly. He let out a long howl that shook the universe. His entire body was emitting light, and he was doing his best to resist.
However, it was useless. He was sent flying back hundreds of light-years, smashing countless stars, and falling into the depths of the universe.
“Pff!”
The Rain Emperor tried to struggle to stand up, but he spat out a mouthful of blood.
What was crushing? This was crushing.
The Rain Emperor’s eyes were filled with terror. He simply couldn’t believe that Lu Xuan was so terrifying that he could injure him with a single palm.
One had to know that he was already at the mid-stage of the Imperial Emperor Realm. He was only one step away from reaching the late stage of the Imperial Emperor Realm.
With such a cultivation level, he could not be considered a weakling among the Imperial Emperors.
Although he was not invincible, it was impossible to almost die from a single palm strike.
In an instant, just now, his physical body was destroyed. He had only relied on the powerful recovery ability of the Imperial Emperor to recover.
He was defeated in one move!
Previously, he had said three moves. Now, he could not even block one move!
He even had a feeling that if he continued to receive the remaining two moves, he might be beaten to death.
“Rain Emperor, how about it? Submit to me or die. You choose yourself!”
Lu Xuan said.
Rain Emperor’s eyes rolled, and he said, “I can submit, but I have conditions!”
“Speak!” Lu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back and looked at Rain Emperor as he said.
“When Dongfang Heavenly Emperor returns, I hope that you can protect me!”
The Rain Emperor said. He had nothing else to ask for.
This battle had wholly crushed his confidence. Even a junior who had just reached the attainment not long ago had defeated him in one move.
Not to mention Dongfang Heavenly Emperor, who was ranked in the top three among the many Imperial Emperors and had an unimaginable reserve strength of a substitute of a Celestial Lord.
He almost immediately gave up the thought of continuing to fight with the Dongfang Heavenly Emperor. They were not on the same level at all.
“Sure!”
Lu Xuan said.
