Hearing the voice of the Great Saint Xuanming unexpectedly emanate from within the black Gu worm, Qiao Donghai felt his scalp tingle, and his hair stood on end.
But at this mont, he finally understood.
The Great Saint Xuanming had been hiding within the body of the Southern Dipper Human Emperor from the very beginning.
Perhaps even the Southern Dipper Human Emperor himself was unaware of this.
And the Great Saint Xuanming in the tomb was rely an illusion crafted by him to deceive Ye Xuan.
Looking at the current situation, it didn’t deceive Ye Xuan, but instead deceived the Great Saint Xuanming himself, Qiao Donghai, and the Southern Dipper Human Emperor.
"No, this is impossible!"
The Great Saint Xuanming seed incredulous, unable to comprehend how his flawless plan was detected by Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan, holding the true Lifebound Gu of the Great Saint Xuanming, smiled faintly and said, "Didn’t I say, a frog in a well cannot speak of the ocean, and a sumr insect cannot converse about ice."
When he previously sensed the Xuanming Gu within Xinyu’s mother, Ye Xuan hadn’t thought much of it, rely assuming the perpetrator was a Gu Poison Master of the Great Venerate Realm, given that the Xuanming Gu was of the Tenth Rank.
However, upon investigating through Qiao Donghai, Ye Xuan discovered that the Xuanming Gu within Xinyu’s mother was not the true Lifebound Gu of the Great Saint Xuanming.
The true Lifebound Gu of the Great Saint Xuanming was actually within the body of the Southern Dipper Human Emperor.
The so-called Xuanming Gu was rely a ploy of the Great Saint Xuanming using the Southern Dipper Human Emperor to establish this deception.
It has been said before that the most formidable aspect of a Gu Poison Master is not their combat strength but their enigmatic Gu worms and their scheming tactics.
The Great Saint Xuanming never expected Ye Xuan to see through his ruse.
By any asure, the Great Saint Xuanming was an exceptionally powerful Gu Poison Master.
But his mistake was provoking Ye Xuan.
"Are you saying I’m like the frog in the well?"
At this mont, the Great Saint Xuanming seed to gradually regain his composure, speaking in a low voice.
"What do you think?" Ye Xuan smiled faintly.
If the Great Saint Xuanming had a physical body at this mont, his face would surely be extrely unsightly.
"I heard you’re a Reincarnator." The Lifebound Gu of the Great Saint Xuanming stared at Ye Xuan and said, "I’m curious, what realm were you in in your past life?"
Ye Xuan’s expression was calm, his eyes deep, and he spoke slowly, "Then, which realm do you think is the peak of this world?"
The Great Saint Xuanming sharply inhaled, incredulously saying, "You are... a Great Emperor Reincarnator?!"
In his ti, he had encountered many Reincarnators.
But most of these Reincarnators were in the Great Sage Realm; it was rare to find even one in the Great Saint Realm.
More commonly, they were Great Venerables or Supres.
This level transcends the Heaven and Earth Laws; unless sent into the Six Paths of Reincarnation, they could reincarnate on their own.
Hence, the term Reincarnator is used.
But a Great Emperor Reincarnator is extrely rare.
Firstly, a Great Emperor already stands at the peak, overlooking the River of Ti.
Secondly, a Great Emperor bears the Tian Ming of an era. If they truly fall, the Heavenly Dao will replace that era’s Tian Ming, making self-reincarnation nearly impossible.
Of course, there was a precedent.
In ancient tis, there was a Great Emperor Reincarnator who, in their second life, reclaid the Emperor’s Position, seizing Tian Ming of two lives, becoming famous through the ages.
The Great Saint Xuanming was aware of this.
Thus, after hearing Ye Xuan’s words, the Great Saint Xuanming was deeply shaken.
"Do you know why I call you a frog in the well?"
Noticing the Great Saint Xuanming’s shock, Ye Xuan smiled faintly.
"What do you an?" The Great Saint Xuanming felt a slight shock in his heart.
"What it ans is..." Ye Xuan’s smile faded.
The Great Saint Xuanming felt another foreboding sensation and hastily said, "Please spare , Senior. I am willing to submit to you, serving you loyally, only hoping for an Emperor General position in the future!"
Ye Xuan’s expression remained calm as he said lightly, "You deserve death."
Boom————
Ye Xuan gently clenched his right hand.
"No——"
The Great Saint Xuanming roared. His Lifebound Gu twisted desperately in Ye Xuan’s palm, trying to struggle and escape.
However, no matter how it struggled, it could only be completely extinguished under Ye Xuan’s grasp.
The Great Saint Xuanming, being a Great Saint Realm existence, was a Gu Poison Master. Once his Lifebound Gu was subdued, he was as weak as a newborn.
Moreover, the Great Saint Xuanming did not have his full strength.
Even if he did, there was the Heavenly Dao Suppression.
This was why the Great Saint Xuanming never acted directly.
Because he understood his weaknesses better than anyone.
A soft sound.
The life of the Great Saint Xuanming ended here.
This ancient existence from before the era of the Heavenly Dragon Emperor, dreaming of becoming an Emperor, had targeted Ye Xuan and perished because of it.
If he had chosen differently, targeting soone else, perhaps he could have realized his dream.
But now.
He’s dead and gone forever.
"What happened?"
At this ti, it seed the Southern Dipper Human Emperor had just co to his senses, asking in a daze.
Qiao Donghai looked at the Southern Dipper Human Emperor, frowned, and said, "You don’t know?"
The Southern Dipper Human Emperor shook his head and said, "Why am I here?"
Qiao Donghai couldn’t help but look at Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan’s expression remained calm.
Boom————
At this mont, outside the spiritual tomb, Qiao Xinyu arrived with the East Desolate Wolf.
Qiao Xinyu, wielding dual blades, sprinted forward, the blades sparking brightly against the ground.
Boom!
In the next instant, the Southern Dipper Human Emperor was directly knocked to the ground.
Then, the Southern Dipper Human Emperor cried out in pain.
Qiao Xinyu had stabbed the dual blades into the shoulders of the Southern Dipper Human Emperor, pinning him down firmly.
"Subordinate arrived late, requesting punishnt from the Young Master!"
Having pinned down his own father, Qiao Xinyu apologized to Ye Xuan.
The East Desolate Wolf also kneeled on one knee.
Qiao Donghai felt his scalp tingle.
Although he already knew of Qiao Xinyu’s terrifying prowess, he hadn’t expected Qiao Xinyu to penetrate the Imperial Guard and arrive here so quickly.
Such power was simply invincible.
Ye Xuan gently raised his hand, signaling them to rise, then looked at the Southern Dipper Human Emperor pinned to the ground, and said softly, "Now you can tell the truth."
The Southern Dipper Human Emperor, pale, stared intently at Ye Xuan and said in a deep voice, "I have no idea what you’re talking about!"
After speaking, the Southern Dipper Human Emperor turned to Qiao Xinyu and said in distress, "Xinyu, no matter what, I am your father, how can you treat your father like this!?"
Qiao Xinyu completely ignored him.
Ye Xuan squinted slightly and said calmly, "Xinyu, explain whether a person, after being subjected to a Gu Poison Master’s Gu, is aware of the process."
The Southern Dipper Human Emperor’s face showed slight changes.
Qiao Donghai also sharply turned to look at the Southern Dipper Human Emperor.
"Aware." Qiao Xinyu said firmly, then turned to look at the Southern Dipper Human Emperor, her beautiful eyes undisguised in their murderous intent: "So... what are you hiding?"
The Southern Dipper Human Emperor, pale-faced, said, "Xinyu, listen to your father explain..."
Qiao Xinyu interrupted coldly, "You have no right to be my father."
Qiao Xinyu looked at Ye Xuan and said, "I request permission from the Young Master to personally deal with this person’s life."
Ye Xuan turned to leave, leaving a single word.
"Granted."
