Chapter 1487: Chapter 1487: Emperor Shang Concedes! Late-Night Update
There was no ti to inspect the jewel further. Ye Qiu felt exhausted, and at the mont the Yasakani no Orochi vanished, he could no longer hold on. His eyelids felt as heavy as lead, and all light was swallowed by darkness.
Whoosh!
Ye Qiu plumted from the heavens, and with a splash, he plunged into the ocean, finally sinking to the seabed.
The Dantian quieted down, with neither Ye Qiu nor the Yasakani no Orochi.
The residual eyeball floating beside the black fla pill opened once more, as a figure erged. This figure emanated an aura that surpassed the heavens themselves. Ye Qiu had no idea such an existence dwelled within him.
The figure raised his arm, and the jewel fell into his hand.
“Such abundant Soul Power; I really want to swallow it whole!”
He scrutinized the jewel but ultimately refrained from consuming it. “Forget it, I’ll leave it to the boy to enhance his Soul Power. If he can break through the virtual realm, I’ll take over his body, and this power will still belong to .”
The figure tossed the jewel aside, letting it fall in front of the Dantian, watching Ye Qiu’s surroundings clearly through it.
“In the water?” the figure muttered. Ye Qiu was lying unconscious at the seabed, surrounded by swimming fish, and even man-eating sharks.
The figure pointed his finger, and the light from the Six Paths Gate expanded, encasing Ye Qiu, shielding him from seawater and other marine life, leaving no trace of his presence. It was as if the fish could no longer perceive him and swam away.
After completing this, the figure glanced at the unconscious Ye Qiu, “I can’t wait to get out. Hurry up and break through; the day you do will be when I shine upon the heavens again.”
The figure gradually disappeared, and the residual eyeball slowly closed, returning everything to tranquility.
And Ye Qiu, encased within the Six Paths Gate at the seabed, had his aura completely masked, silently subrged deep in the ocean.
…
The furious Emperor Shang was running when he realized the Yasakani no Orochi hadn’t co to his aid. Suddenly, his expression changed dramatically: “Vanished… How could it vanish? Impossible…”
The Yasakani no Orochi’s presence had disappeared, severing their connection completely, as if ti had erased its existence.
Emperor Shang was shaken, recalling Ye Qiu, who battled the Yasakani no Orochi. Could it be that Ye Qiu killed the Yasakani no Orochi?
It shouldn’t be possible!
Emperor Shang knew the Yasakani no Orochi’s power, of the virtual realm level—how could Ye Qiu have slain it?
“Could those rumors be true?” He rembered reports on the underground world website, suggesting Ye Qiu had the potential to slay beings of the virtual realm level.
Back then, Emperor Shang scoffed at the idea. How could a re emperor realm figure kill a virtual realm being, which was a level stronger than even a god like him?
Yet the Yasakani no Orochi was now missing, aning the worst might be true. Even if he doubted it, the fact is, Ye Qiu killed the Yasakani no Orochi.
The thought of the Yasakani no Orochi possibly falling urged Emperor Shang not to pause but hasten his escape because if Ye Qiu joined the battle, he would be dood. If Ye Qiu could kill the Yasakani no Orochi, he could kill him too.
Emperor Shang fled faster, as Satan and Blood Ancestor pursued even more fiercely. Compared to Emperor Shang, they were unaware of Ye Qiu’s feat against the Yasakani no Orochi. If they knew, they’d be even more shocked than he was.
“We can’t let him escape!”
Blood Ancestor said to Satan, the two determined to eliminate Emperor Shang, even if it ant chasing him to the ends of the earth, to settle the centuries-old grudge once and for all.
Otherwise, finding another opportunity like this would be incredibly difficult.
The duo kept close behind Emperor Shang. After running continuously, Emperor Shang noticed they were only a hundred miles from China. He decided to head there, not believing Blood Ancestor and Satan would dare follow him into China and act recklessly.
Seeing Emperor Shang heading toward China, Blood Ancestor and Satan realized his intention.
China was a nation they least wanted to step foot in, given its vast influence in the world. If such superhuman entities appeared, who knows if China would deploy high-tech weapons against them.
The duo was wary of China’s cutting-edge weaponry, particularly the nuclear arsenal, having personally witnessed these weapons’ horror. This destructive potential was sothing they believed even they couldn’t survive, which is why China remained peaceful for years due to nuclear deterrence.
“Damn it, he’s using China’s threat against us.” Emperor Shang was slippery, maintaining a distance from them that kept them from catching up.
Seeing China grow closer, the two felt anxious, wishing Ye Qiu were there. While they couldn’t step into China, Ye Qiu’s status permitted him to.
“We can’t proceed any further. If China finds us, they’ll surely issue a warning.” Satan said.
“It’s really frustrating to let him escape like this?” Blood Ancestor replied.
“China has his passport, and we don’t.”
“No choice, China views us with hostility, considering us evil, unable to see through this false god’s true nature.”
The two ultimately stopped, unwilling to risk their lives instead of taking down Emperor Shang.
Emperor Shang saw it and breathed a sigh of relief. He seed safe now; as long as those two didn’t pursue, he wouldn’t be in danger. Though China might discover him, revealing his identity would prevent them from attacking him for no reason.
Since his passport held a high position, as long as he identified himself, China wouldn’t trigger its highest state of alert against him.
“Want to kill ? Maybe in the next lifeti!” Emperor Shang glanced at Satan and Blood Ancestor, prepared to enter China. Suddenly, several powerful presences erged ahead, blocking his path.
“Huh? A little guy?” An astonished voice exclaid as Emperor Shang saw several figures in ancient attire standing before him.
Their presence emanated a terrifying aura.
After being watched for a mont, Emperor Shang laughed. “I’m just passing through; please don’t mind, I’m leaving now.”
Swish!
Emperor Shang attempted to dodge, but a figure stopped him: “Who allowed you to leave?”
“Tell , is there a battle in the ocean? Is there soone nad Ye Qiu among them?”
Emperor Shang’s heart jolted. Of course he knew Ye Qiu, and just by sensing their aggressive deanor, he realized they had descended to trouble Ye Qiu.
“Indeed, there’s a Ye Qiu, and he’s their companion. You can ask those two.” Emperor Shang pointed toward Blood Ancestor and Satan.
Seeing this, Blood Ancestor and Satan dared not linger. Especially when these people ntioned Ye Qiu, with an expression of gritted teeth, now being declared by Emperor Shang as associates with Ye Qiu—it was asking for trouble.
Go!
Without hesitation, the pair fled.
“Chase them!”
The newcors wouldn’t let anyone slip away. Emperor Shang watched them pursue Satan and Blood Ancestor, feeling triumphant for successfully transferring the disaster to his two adversaries.
Suddenly, the scene blurred montarily, Emperor Shang paused, and one of them returned, leaving him bewildered: “I don’t know if the senior has anything else to ask. I’ll answer truthfully.”
The newcor stared at Emperor Shang for a while: “Why do I feel like you look familiar? Have we t sowhere?”
Emperor Shang’s heart skipped a beat.
“Don’t leave, co with . I feel like we’ve t, but I can’t recall where.”
“Sir, you must be mistaken. We couldn’t have t.”
“Sir… I’ll just go…”
No matter his attempts to explain, Emperor Shang was still firmly grasped by the newcor and flown into the ocean’s depths.
