Chapter 128

“Not bad. The Wang family shows much sincerity…” Su Zheng spoke indifferently.

Hearing this, the emissary’s eyes lit up: “Your Majesty, your meaning is!!”

“Hmm… the matter of you pursuing and attacking my cousin is settled!”

The envoy was immediately overjoyed beyond measure.

“In that case, I truly thank Your Majesty! Your Majesty is indeed worthy of being the one to restore the imperial way!”

“In the future, the royal banner of the Great Qin Empire will surely stand tall above all heavens!”

“Our Wang Family will certainly become the strongest ally of His Majesty the First Emperor, our Wang Family will…”

He spoke excitedly, but before he could finish, he was cut off by Su Zheng’s indifferent voice.

“Ally?? You think you are worthy!!”

“If you dare to utter one more noisy word, I will kill you!”

“Get out!! Get out! Before long, you shall see the royal banner of Great Qin planted upon the gates of your Wang Family’s estate!”

“What!!”

“Your Majesty, did you not just accept…”

“That was the price for you hunting down my cousin… But now, your family has committed the greatest of all errors…”

As Su Zheng spoke, his voice grew colder and colder, and behind him, the phantom of the Ancestral Dragon faintly manifested.

“The greatest of all errors, was attempting to violate my family’s ancestral grounds!!”

“What!!”

The envoy was utterly horrified. He had rushed all the way to the imperial capital, not seeing the Heavenly Nether Guards along the way.

He had thought he was fortunate for arriving early.

Yet, he never once imagined, the Heavenly Fire Guard and the Nether Fire Guard had not come to the capital at all, but had headed straight toward the Su Family’s ancestral grounds!

“Your Majesty!!”

The envoy tried to salvage something with his words.

But…

Hua la la!!

A surge of frigid frost poured forth, carrying the immense power of icy Dao force.

In an instant, this mighty Moon-Grasping expert could not even finish his sentence before he was frozen into a human-shaped ice sculpture.

“Troublesome, Hai Lao.”

Su Zheng spoke softly.

The one who had struck was none other than Hai Bodong, who had already become Su Yan’s Dao protector.

Recently, Su Yan had been staying in the Great Qin Palace, so Hai Bodong resided there as well, conveniently lending Su Zheng a hand.

After all, with Su Zheng’s temperament, no one was allowed to remain idle. Even Su Yan had been sent to the alchemy chamber to instruct the alchemists…

“It’s nothing. However, Your Majesty, what do you plan to do?” Hai Bodong asked.

Su Zheng set aside the memorial in his hand, holding the ring filled with vast resources, the corner of his mouth lifting into a cold smile.

“No matter who dares to touch even half a part of the Su Family, it will never be permitted!”

“Tomorrow, dispatch troops to Tianhuo!!”

Su Zheng’s voice struck with the weight of iron, carrying the unquestionable might of an emperor.

In that instant, all ministers within the grand hall prostrated to the ground!

“Qin!!”

“Qin!! Qin!!”

“Mighty Qin! Mighty Qin!! Mighty Qin!!”

The Great Qin Empire marched upon the Tianhuo Domain, their boundless killing intent surging.

All surrounding domains, upon hearing the news, understood well, this was aimed directly at the Wang Family.

For it was because of the Wang Family that all sects and empires within the Tianhuo and Liehuo Domains were but their puppets.

To campaign against Tianhuo was the same as waging war against the Wang Family!

At the same time, another piece of news spread, also concerning the Wang Family.

The one who had reopened the ‘Invincible Path’, that Invincible One, had by now shattered seven great domains in succession, defeating every single heaven’s pride.

The Tianhuo Domain had been the third domain he conquered, and long since had he departed.

But not long ago, that same heaven’s pride walked the Invincible Path in reverse, returning once more to Tianhuo.

At once, countless eyes turned to him.

Tianhuo Domain.

A youth in white robes stood in the heavens.

His expression was incomparably cold, his gaze condescending toward all.

He stood there, black hair dancing wildly, eyes sharp like lightning, sword brows that could cut, an aura so overwhelming that heaven and earth lost their color.

Merely by standing, he gave off a pressure that could suffocate.

Let alone ordinary cultivators, even the common prodigies had no courage to face him.

“Why has Su Nan returned to the Tianhuo Domain?”

“Could it be that within this domain lies another genius?”

“Impossible! Among the younger generation of Tianhuo, only Wang Teng of the Wang Family possesses great strength. He once battled Su Nan for ten days, but was ultimately defeated. Could it be that Wang Teng has broken through again?”

“Very possible. Rumor says Wang Teng bears the posture of a Great Emperor. At birth, he grasped Profound Fire, born with a Fire Body, and his combat power is overwhelming!”

All around, prodigies who had hurried here upon hearing the news began their heated discussions.

Some had once been defeated by him, others followed simply to see how far he could go.

“Wang Family, do you have anyone worthy of battle?”

“If not, what right do you have to preside over two domains!”

Su Nan’s voice was indifferent, yet within it was naked ridicule.

All who heard it were shocked.

They knew Su Nan’s nature well, laconic, powerful, often fighting and departing.

If he met a kindred opponent, he would even drink with them. Regardless of strength, he never resorted to mockery.

Yet today, he spoke such words that was utterly out of character.

“Eh!!” Suddenly, one prodigy seemed to recall something, leaping to his feet.

“Damn!!!”

The rest turned to him, pressing urgently.

“You Lao San, what did you remember!”

“Yeah, hurry up, tell us!!”

“You all know the Great Qin Empire is campaigning against the Tianhuo Domain, right!”

“Obviously!” one rolled his eyes, “That emperor who restored the Imperial Path, campaigning across the heavens, that’s normal!”

“But do you know what that emperor’s name is?”

“What is it?”

“Su Zheng! The Su of Su Nan!!”

Upon hearing this, all their faces changed at once.

Damn!!

At present, across three thousand domains, the two most blazing stars were: One—the Invincible One, Su Nan, who reopened the Invincible Path and sought to pierce through nine heavens and ten earths.

The other was the First Emperor, Su Zheng, who on Mount Tai performed the Fengshan sacrifice, restoring the Imperial Path.

Many had debated in private who among them was stronger. But now you are saying, both came from the same family!!

What kind of terrifying, monstrous family could produce such geniuses?

These prodigies, hailing from countless great powers, began urgently sending word to their families.

And within the messages, only four words were written:

Encounter Su, then evade!!!

“Wang Family, truly no one can fight… utterly dull…”

“Wang Teng, you are no more than this. Upon the Emperor’s Road, there is no place for you.”

Su Nan shook his head dismissively.

His voice spread far across the sky, drawing countless spectators.

“Hmph!! Su Nan, do you truly think you’re invincible? After his battle with you, my son comprehended his Life-Bound Divine Ability!”

“At his birth, cranes bowed, phoenixes perched upon parasol trees. He bore the posture of a Great Emperor! If not for his momentary distraction last time, on what grounds could you have defeated him!!”

Wang Tianfang soared into the skies, roaring in fury.

All his life, his greatest pride was his son, and he would not permit anyone to insult him.

“Wang Tianfang, perfected at Sun Veiling Realm, titled Heavenly Fire King, bearing the Dharma-Form of Vast Sky Fire…”

“In a battle of equals… to destroy you would take me no more than three moves!”

Su Nan spoke faintly.

“You!” Wang Tianfang glared with fury.

But he dared not utter the words ‘suppress my realm’, for none could, Su Nan was far too strong. His entire path had been forged in blood.

Seven great domains. Hundreds of prodigies. None could match him!

Just as Wang Tianfang faltered, a domineering voice resounded.

“Hmph!! Su Nan, I have already grasped my Life-Bound Dao Art. Today, I shall break your Invincible Path!”

Suddenly, a youth strode forth across the heavens!!
