Chapter 1189: Face-Slapping Too Fast

Xu Nian appeared in the sky above the Imperial Capital, and was intercepted by the Great Formation above the Imperial Capital.

A layer of powerful undulations permeated the entire Imperial Capital, exuding a frightening wave of power.

"Back then, this Imperial Capital Array made me fearful, but now, in front of me, it’s like a sheet of thin paper."

Xu Nian smiled slightly, then flicked his finger, and Sword Qi erupted, breaking open the Imperial Capital Array.

The array exploded, shaking the entire Imperial Capital.

Everyone looked up at the sky above the Imperial Capital.

Soon they discovered a figure standing in the sky above the Emperor Palace.

"Who’s that, so bold, to actually break the Imperial Capital Array? If he angers Emperor Xing, isn’t he courting death?"

"Who knows, even if he broke the Imperial Capital Array, his strength is formidable, but Emperor Xing’s strength is not something he can resist."

"Sigh, over the years, who knows how many Battle Emperor Level experts died at the hands of Emperor Xing. Some Ninth Level Battle Emperors were slain without even meeting Emperor Xing. Don’t know how many moves this guy can withstand."

"Hmm, why do I feel this guy looks a bit familiar, like I’ve seen him somewhere before. This scene is really too reminiscent."

"You don’t say, I also have that feeling, it seems like I’ve really seen this young man somewhere."

"Ah, I remember now, isn’t he the former Divine River Palace Master, the Xu Nian who extinguished the Xia Family ancestor?"

"It’s him? Hasn’t he been missing for a few years? How is he back again?"

...

The people around were discussing fervently, looking at Xu Nian in the sky with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

However, they still did not hold high hopes for Xu Nian. No matter how glorious Xu Nian was in the past, in their eyes, Emperor Xing’s strength was unsurpassable.

"Emperor Xing, come out!" Xu Nian didn’t pay attention to the residents’ discussions, using Immortal Essence to speak.

The voice, accompanied by Immortal Essence, spread throughout the entire Imperial Capital.

Although suppressed by heaven and earth, their cultivation was restricted to the Battle Emperor Realm.

However, the quality of power within them was unaffected; it was just that the amount of Immortal Essence they could utilize was minimal.

"Whizz!"

A stream of light soared to the sky, directly transforming into a white silhouette appearing above the Emperor Palace.

Xu Nian looked at the newcomer, his expression turning serious.

The newcomer wore a white dragon robe, embroidered with golden threads into the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, exquisitely crafted.

Xu Nian sized up the person and found that his appearance seemed only about forty years old.

With a tall and straight figure, a stern and resolute visage, his entire body emitted a powerful aura of majesty that was inherently intimidating.

Of course, what caught Xu Nian’s attention the most was the man’s cultivation.

Peak of Earth Immortal Realm!

And already reached the extreme of the Peak of Earth Immortal Realm, perhaps soon to cross into the Primordial Immortal Realm.

As for the quality of Profound Argumentation, Xu Nian could not be sure.

However, Xu Nian was certain that this guy’s understanding of Profound Argumentation was definitely not low.

"A formidable opponent!" Xu Nian murmured in his heart, yet he was filled with confidence.

While Xu Nian was sizing up Emperor Xing, Emperor Xing was also sizing up Xu Nian. When he saw that Xu Nian’s cultivation was actually at the Earth Immortal Realm Middle Stage, his face showed a noticeable trace of surprise.

But it was merely surprise, with no weight given.

In his view, an Earth Immortal Realm Middle Stage was no different from those ants.

"Who are you?" Emperor Xing asked coldly and imperiously.

"Who I am doesn’t matter. What’s important is that I want you to leave Tianhen Continent." Xu Nian replied with equal arrogance.

"Why?" Emperor Xing asked coldly again, though this time his voice carried a hint of cold laughter.

"A peak Earth Immortal strong person coming to this continent was originally nothing, but you dared to act directly, taking over the entire Empire, letting your subordinates run amok, which is unacceptable." Xu Nian replied.

He wasn’t acting for justice but for old friends living on this continent.

For example, Qinglin Academy, it was due to Emperor Xing’s presence that Qinglin Academy faced danger.

Thus, only by dealing with Emperor Xing could the growth of Qinglin Academy and Artifact Refining Sect be maintained.

As for whether they prosper or thrive in the future, that’s their own business, their own fate, and has nothing to do with him.

But Emperor Xing’s existence broke this balance.

"What if I refuse to leave?" Emperor Xing asked with a cold smile.

He suddenly found the young man before him interesting. Knowing he was at the Peak of Earth Immortal Realm, yet dared to come.

That indicated the opponent must have some confidence.

"If you don’t leave, then I can only kill you. The Beast God you injured once favored me, I wouldn’t mind avenging him." Xu Nian laughed.

"Haha, good boy, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen such arrogance. On this continent, those who can face off against me are fewer than three. Kid, I wonder if you have the qualifications to become the fourth." Emperor Xing said arrogantly, with a tone full of ridicule.

"You’ll be disappointed. I won’t become the fourth; I’ll become the first to kill you." Xu Nian said with a smile.

"Ambitious, but talk doesn’t equate to power. How about this, I’ll let you make three moves, I won’t fight back, just defend. If within three moves you can touch my clothes’ hem, then I’ll spare you; if you can’t, sorry, today you’ll only become dead bones." Emperor Xing boasted.

"I don’t think it’s necessary," Xu Nian replied with a wry smile.

This Emperor Xing was truly brimming with confidence.

"Necessary, in my view, killing you is effortless. Ending it in one move isn’t fun; taking it slow is enjoyable." Emperor Xing said with a laugh.

"Enjoyable?" Xu Nian sneered again.

This Emperor Xing looked down on him, considering their battle a game.

"Emperor Xing is indeed Emperor Xing, still so arrogant!"

"Yes, I wonder if Xu Nian can touch Emperor Xing’s clothes within three moves. He’s a rare genius; hopefully, he won’t fall today."

"Sigh, seems unlikely, Xu Nian has cultivated for a few years only, Emperor Xing’s strength is something he can’t contend with."

...

People around were discussing fervently, feeling sorry for Xu Nian, believing he would fall here today.

"Alright then, since you want fun, I’ll give you fun." Xu Nian smiled slightly, then his gaze turned sharp.

"Remember, only three moves! Hope you can touch my clothes’ hem." Emperor Xing still laughed, standing with hands behind his back, looking superior.

Xu Nian smiled slightly, and in the next instant, his figure appeared directly in front of Emperor Xing, instantly delivering a slap.

"Smack!"

A crisp slapping sound resonated throughout the Imperial Capital.

In an instant, Emperor Xing’s face was distorted by the slap, his figure fell like a meteorite smashing into the palace.

"Boom!"

A loud noise, instantly creating a huge pit on the ground.

Inside the Imperial Capital, everyone was dumbfounded.

This...this face-slapping was way too fast!

Sorry, recently Sanjia’s mother fell ill, Sanjia has been busy. Initially, it was just a minor surgery, but possibly due to the hospital’s limited capabilities, the condition didn’t improve after surgery. Today she was just transferred to Shanghai. Recently, updates have been few. Please forgive me, once the mother’s condition stabilizes, I’ll strive to update more to compensate everyone! Only one update today!
