114: The Emperor of Heavenly Book

Watching the increasingly uncontrollable scene, Yan Tianqing, the King of the Northern Lands, stepped forward, hovering high in the sky, his expression grave as he looked down.

“You all go deal with those monsters, I will kill this child!”

In the recent battle, several more Mystic Infants had been slain by Mu Wuchen, transforming into Corpse Puppets that charged into the crowd, and the chain reaction continued.

Yan Tianqing knew that if this continued, the situation would completely spiral out of control, so he decided to have all the powerful cultivators control the situation, while he personally confronted Mu Wuchen!

“Junior, your talent is even higher than I imagined. If there were another chance, I would persuade His Majesty to hand Princess Shuyun over to you.”

“However, today you’ve crossed me, so your life certainly cannot be spared!”

Mu Wuchen listened to Yan Tianqing’s “heartfelt words” and waved his hand dismissively.

Because he didn't put Yan Tianqing in his eyes at all.

With his current strength, he couldn't defeat a Heavenly King Realm expert, but against a Heavenly Human, he could at least maintain an undefeated stance.

“Yan Tianqing, you’ve got it wrong. Your opponent isn’t me, I’m not interested in fighting you.”

Upon hearing Mu Wuchen’s words, Yan Tianqing was stunned.

He won’t fight him?

What did that mean?

“Yan Tianqing, look behind you.”

Mu Wuchen reminded him.

However, upon hearing Mu Wuchen’s words, Yan Tianqing sneered, dismissing them with disdain.

“Hmph, pretending to be mysterious, playing tricks!”

No sooner had he spoken than, before Yan Tianqing could react, a “bang” echoed, an explosion directly erupting, and blood mist splattered everywhere.

It was the sound of Yan Tianqing’s head exploding.

Immediately, a headless body slowly plummeted from the sky. His soul was then collected by the Wanhun Fan, and his body also transformed into a black Corpse Puppet, charging towards the crowd below.

Behind the spot where Yan Tianqing had just been, the figure of an old man slowly appeared; it was precisely Xiao Zhan, Mu Wuchen’s puppet.

At this moment, his palm remained in a raised position.

Just moments ago, with a powerful, heavy palm strike, he had directly delivered a headshot to the unsuspecting Yan Tianqing!

Mu Wuchen looked at Yan Tianqing, who had become a headless Corpse Puppet below, and shook his head helplessly.

“Alas, I clearly warned you, why didn’t you listen?”

Immediately, Xiao Zhan struck again, and several more Heavenly Human Mystic Infants died on the spot, their souls also becoming nourishment for the Bone-Suppressing Celestial Puppet Myriad Soul Banner.

The top experts of the Celestial Tome Dynasty present were almost all dead in an instant.

The sudden change startled everyone below.

Who was the old man above?

He could actually suppress and kill Yan Tianqing, the King of the Northern Lands, with a single blow?

Yan Tianqing was a Heavenly Human Eighth Realm expert, and to be able to kill him with one blow, he could absolutely not be in the Heavenly Human Realm!

Was he a Heavenly King?

A Heavenly Human was already among the top few existences in the Celestial Tome Dynasty.

And a Heavenly King was an existence they dared not even imagine!

At this moment, seeing Xiao Zhan’s appearance, the Celestial Tome Emperor’s hand, hidden beneath his black Qilin robe, trembled slightly.

This was the first time he regretted it since meeting Mu Wuchen.

He should have realized earlier why Mu Wuchen, a mere Mystic Infant, dared to be so arrogant and fearless in front of so many Heavenly Humans.

There must have been something he relied on; no one was a fool, let alone a disciple of the Tianxuan Sect!

But having been Emperor for hundreds of years, he had grown accustomed to his subordinates obeying his every command, which led him to misjudge the situation.

However, facing a powerful Heavenly King Realm expert now, was there still room to salvage the situation?

Even if it were salvaged, what then?

Tens of thousands of elite soldiers had already lost more than half due to the ebb and flow of battle, their souls becoming nourishment for the Wanhun Fan. It was estimated that the entire army would be wiped out soon…

Just then, Jiang Huaian, who was beside him, suddenly brightened, and a soft chuckle escaped him.

The soft jade Qilin pendant in his hand suddenly emitted a gentle glow.

“It’s done!”

The Celestial Tome Emperor looked at Jiang Huaian. He was already so humiliated, yet this young man could still smile?

“Father-in-law, your son-in-law has invited a great figure. With him here, this crisis will surely be overcome!”

However, at this moment, the Celestial Tome Emperor was in low spirits.

Invite a helper, and a great figure at that?

Could it be that Jiang Huaian could even invite a Heavenly King-level expert?

But the next second, his pupils instantly widened, revealing a look of shock!

A person had suddenly appeared right in front of them!

The person wore a golden Qilin robe, with wise, bright eyes. Immediately, the golden-robed figure looked at the Celestial Tome Emperor.

Upon seeing this person, the Celestial Tome Emperor’s body immediately trembled. The dignified monarch of a nation slowly knelt before the person in front of him!

At this moment, his eyes were filled with reverence, and his previous tension was instantly swept away.

“The Tenth Celestial Tome Emperor, Yan Wuqi, greets the Former Emperor!”

Former Emperor!

This person was actually the first Emperor of the Celestial Tome Dynasty!

He was also the Emperor Realm expert who emerged from the Celestial Tome Dynasty, the spiritual pillar and legendary figure of the Celestial Tome Dynasty!

Legend had it that after the Former Emperor broke through to the Emperor Realm, he no longer stayed in the Heavenly God Domain but ventured to other immortal domains. Could it be that the ancestor had returned at this time?

They were saved!

Facing Yan Wuqi’s kneeling bow, the golden-robed man merely nodded slightly and then paid him no further attention, turning his head to the other side.

Mu Wuchen looked at the golden-robed man who had suddenly appeared before him, slightly stunned, and uttered a phrase that seemed nonsensical to others.

“You are a clone?”

The sudden remark left everyone present stunned, even the Celestial Tome Emperor, who then looked at the golden-robed figure.

A clone?

The golden-robed man, however, was slightly taken aback.

“Young fellow, your eyesight is quite good. Before becoming an Emperor, my other self completely severed all worldly attachments, resolved all worldly karma, and departed, leaving behind his mortal body.”

“And I am his mortal body.”

Mu Wuchen instantly understood.

In the Human Emperor’s memory, he had dabbled in and understood the cultivation techniques of various realms.

This was a cunning method to achieve the Emperor Realm.

This was like an exam with ten subjects, and to break through to the Emperor Realm, one needed to score 90 in every subject.

But some people were deficient in certain subjects, causing them to be unable to break through for a long time.

So, they simply used some clever tricks to completely eliminate these few subjects, achieving 90 in all other subjects, thus breaking through to become a ' Castrated version' (castrated version) of the Emperor Realm!

However, such Emperor Realm cultivators were often flawed, and their combat power could not be compared to those who steadily progressed step by step to the Emperor Realm!

“Junior, you’ve come to cause trouble in my Celestial Tome Dynasty, and you will pay the price.”

However, upon hearing his words, Mu Wuchen burst into laughter.

“Just a discarded piece of trash, yet you dare to speak so arrogantly?”

Hearing Mu Wuchen’s words, the golden-robed man’s eyes instantly sharpened.

Mu Wuchen’s words seemed to strike his soft spot.

To be precise, he was the trash that the main body discarded to break through to the Emperor Realm!

But these words were now spoken by a junior!

The golden-robed man’s aura suddenly became dangerous, and immense pressure enveloped the entire scene. His cultivation at this moment was indeed that of a Heavenly King!

Moreover, his aura was clearly much stronger than Xiao Zhan’s!

Mu Wuchen was about to summon the little fox, who had only recently come out of seclusion, to kill this person, but he paused.

A bold idea suddenly emerged…
