165: Beichen

“Beichen…” Mu Wuchen murmured to himself.

“The Contemporary Human Emperor who appeared in the Ancient Domain, is she from the Bei Chen family?” Mu Wuchen suddenly asked.

Previously, he had already learned about all the prodigies on the Ancient Domain Heaven and Earth List, and that woman who possessed the Contemporary Human Emperor's destiny seemed to have the surname Beichen… Furthermore, it was said that her original name was Beichen Lin, but after obtaining the Human Emperor's inheritance, she changed her name to Beichen Lintian, meaning to be on par with the heavens… So, is the Human Emperor's advent related to the rise of the Bei Chen family?

Hearing Mu Wuchen’s question, Xiao Qian nodded slightly.

“In recent years, many top prodigies have been born in the Ancient Domain, but if one were to choose the number one person from the Heaven and Earth List, I believe it would have to be that young girl from the Bei Chen family.”

Hearing him, Mu Wuchen chuckled.

“The dignified Xiao Family Patriarch holds that little girl from the Bei Chen family in such high regard, is it because she possesses the Human Emperor’s inheritance?”

Listening to Mu Wuchen’s words, Xiao Qian was slightly taken aback, then nodded.

“The Human Emperor is the Supreme of the human race. Every Contemporary Human Emperor is a powerful existence whose name shakes the ages. Although that girl is not old, it won’t be long before she becomes the ruler of this domain. At that time, we old fellows will probably only be able to bow down and submit.”

Mu Wuchen was noncommittal, and spoke indifferently.

“Patriarch Xiao, do you know that there is more than one Human Emperor?”

Mu Wuchen’s words directly confused Xiao Qian.

Isn’t that nonsense?

Historical records already documented several Contemporary Human Emperors, and often, the appearance of a Human Emperor signified the rise of the human race.

Mu Wuchen knew that Xiao Qian had misunderstood his meaning. He smiled slightly, reached out, and the human emperor sword appeared out of thin air in his hand.

And with the appearance of the human emperor sword, Mu Wuchen’s demeanor suddenly changed.

His eyes and his white robes turned a supremely noble golden, and a majestic imperial might emerged on his face, as if he was the heavens, he was the monarch of the entire human race… The might of a Contemporary Human Emperor was revealed without a doubt.

Moreover, the aura Mu Wuchen exuded was not that of an ordinary Human Emperor, but that of the Ancient Human Emperor, the first Human Emperor of the human race!

And the sword in his hand was not an ordinary human emperor sword, but the Ancient Human Emperor’s divine weapon, Xuanyuan!

Speaking of which, he was the ancestor of all subsequent Human Emperors!

Feeling the change in Mu Wuchen’s aura, Xiao Qian was startled.

“Little Brother Mu, you…”

“Do you also possess the Human Emperor’s inheritance?”

Now, he finally understood what Mu Wuchen meant by “there is more than one Human Emperor” earlier.

In this world, two Human Emperors actually appeared at the same time, and they even appeared in the same immortal domain!

How is this possible?

There are not two suns in the sky, nor two masters among men.

If two Human Emperors appear at the same time, one must be false.

But the Bei Chen family’s young lady’s identity as a Contemporary Human Emperor had already been verified by many powerful figures, so what was going on with Mu Wuchen?

Mu Wuchen saw Xiao Qian’s confused expression, smiled slightly, and spoke indifferently.

“Patriarch Xiao, the Human Emperor’s inheritance I possess is that of the Ancient Human Emperor.”

Hearing him, Xiao Qian’s pupils constricted.

The Ancient Human Emperor, that was the first Human Emperor, a legendary existence, and very possibly the most powerful Human Emperor!

“Could it be that the Human Emperor’s inheritance of that young girl from the Bei Chen family is fake?”

“It’s highly likely to be real, but a king does not see another king, an emperor does not see another emperor. Therefore, she can only be fake.”

Saying that, Mu Wuchen paused, then suddenly turned his head, his gaze burning, and looked at Xiao Qian.

“Patriarch Xiao, do you have the ambition to dominate the entire Ancient Domain?”

As soon as these words were spoken, it was earth-shattering.

Xiao Qian’s eyes trembled.

Dominate the entire Ancient Domain, did he want to?

Of course, he did!

However, the top experts of the major families were evenly matched in strength. If they truly fought, it would be a disaster for the entire Ancient Domain. Moreover, the relationships between the various families were unclear, and once war broke out, he couldn’t foresee how the situation would develop.

What if it turned into three families or the other four families jointly attacking his Xiao Family? At that time, the entire Xiao Family might fall into a state of eternal damnation.

Of course, the other families had similar thoughts. Once war began, no one had absolute certainty.

Therefore, in the Ancient Domain, the open and secret struggles among the major families were well-known, but they never escalated into a major war.

Xiao Qian looked at Mu Wuchen, his eyes filled with unparalleled solemnity.

“Little brother, tell me, what is the true strength of your superior?”

When Mu Wuchen first met him, a female expert in the Venerable Realm was accompanying Mu Wuchen. A Venerable Realm expert was already enough to change many things.

Mu Wuchen knew that the ‘superior’ he referred to was the little fox, so he immediately reached out and summoned her, giving Xiao Qian a reassurance.

“Sect Master Xiao, Meier is obedient to my words and advice, and is absolutely trustworthy.”

“Below the Great Emperor, she can remain undefeated.”

This was not Mu Wuchen bragging, but he genuinely had this confidence.

Su Meier’s Demon Venerable realm was far from comparable to an ordinary Venerable realm; it was a breakthrough achieved with the power of the System Divine Hall. Coupled with her miraculous Nine-tailed Clone technique, even if the opponent had several Venerable Realm experts, they probably wouldn’t be a match for Su Meier in a single exchange.

Xiao Qian was also not a hesitant person. Hearing Mu Wuchen’s words, his expression instantly firmed up, and with a wave of his hand, he immediately made a decision!

“Good, let’s do it!”

…

Under the control of the Ancient Domain Xiao Clan, within a few months, an explosive piece of news quickly spread throughout the entire Ancient Domain, stirring up a thousand waves.

The news claimed that the true Contemporary Human Emperor had appeared in the Ancient Domain Xiao Clan, and the Human Emperor of the Bei Chen family was fake.

As soon as this news came out, the entire Ancient Domain instantly exploded.

At the same time, all the major families also felt an unusual aura.

The purpose of the Xiao Family’s news was clearly to directly confront the Bei Chen family!

It was no secret in the Ancient Domain that the Bei Chen family had produced a Contemporary Human Emperor. Precisely because of this, many major families had already shown goodwill towards the Bei Chen family or even pledged allegiance to them.

They did this, firstly, because the Bei Chen family was already extremely powerful and recently even showed signs of surpassing other top families. Secondly, it was naturally because the Bei Chen family had produced a Contemporary Human Emperor.

The Human Emperor, the ruler of the human race, was bound to achieve the status of a Great Emperor in the future.

A Great Emperor, that was an existence they dared not even dream of. The earlier they showed goodwill, the more benefits they would naturally gain in the future!

However, recently someone actually said that the Bei Chen family’s Contemporary Human Emperor was fake!

Moreover, the one who said this was not some insignificant family, but the Xiao Family, one of the major forces in the Ancient Domain!

What was going on?
