The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 1641 - 1638: Game on the Razor’s Edge

"So what?"

Ye Xuan calmly looked at Emperor Tian Tu.

The matters Emperor Tian Tu spoke of could be perceived by any sect or Sacred Land with even slightly ancient heritage.

In essence, meaningless.

Emperor Tian Tu fixed his gaze on Ye Xuan, grinning and saying, "So when the time comes for the fight, it’s not necessarily just between your Revenge Lineage and the Double Emperors. There might be other hidden entities."

"The Double Emperors propose that before the End of Dharma Era concludes, cease the battle between us."

"You only need to issue orders to have the Revenge Lineage retreat from the Heavenly Domain."

"As for the Lower Realm, the Double Emperors will dismantle all the traps set against you."

"How does Emperor Ye feel about this?"

Emperor Tian Tu kept his gaze on Ye Xuan.

This conversation was only audible to Emperor Tian Tu, Ye Xuan, and a few others like Yun Daoli.

Not even the three Invincible Giants could hear these exchanges.

After all, it involved many considerations.

Ye Xuan listened to Emperor Tian Tu’s words and suddenly smiled, "Seems those two traitors finally understand the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds are not as simple as they imagined."

Emperor Tian Tu did not respond but awaited Ye Xuan’s answer.

But in the next moment, Ye Xuan’s face turned icy cold: "What does it matter? One day, I will personally dispose of those two traitors."

Emperor Tian Tu slightly arched his brow, "So your answer is?"

Ye Xuan gazed intently at Emperor Tian Tu and said coldly, "Get out."

Boom!

The next moment, the Invincible Emperor Soul suddenly unfolded, and behind Ye Xuan, there emerged a terrifying Emperor’s Shadow, unmatched in all eternity and millions of miles vast.

The terrifying Emperor’s Might spread instantly.

At that moment, Emperor Tian Tu’s expression changed: "You!?"

"How can this be?!"

Emperor Tian Tu was astonished.

Emperor Ye had actually recovered to such a degree!?

Even his Divine Soul felt a palpable, frightening tremor.

At the same time, Yun Daoli, Chu Li, Bai Zhiyu, Leng Jinghan, and Qiao Xinyu also looked icily at Emperor Tian Tu.

Emperor Tian Tu suppressed the shock and intent to kill within him, glaring at Ye Xuan, and said in a deep voice: "Very well, the answer of Emperor Ye today will be conveyed verbatim to Emperor Mu."

"Farewell!"

With those words, Emperor Tian Tu vanished.

As Emperor Tian Tu disappeared, Ye Xuan withdrew the Emperor Soul and Emperor’s Shadow, his expression calm.

"Why didn’t Emperor Ye detain him?" Yun Daoli asked with some confusion.

It was a perfect opportunity to eliminate Emperor Tian Tu.

Not only Yun Daoli, but Chu Li, Leng Jinghan, and Bai Zhiyu were also puzzled.

Ye Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "You think that fellow was actually here. He is much smarter than Spider Emperor. From start to finish, he never truly stepped foot in the Ghost Great World."

"That was his avatar?"

Several people came to a realization.

Ye Xuan nodded, "Though he and Spider Emperor are both stationed in the Lower Realm, seemingly abandoned, in truth he differs from Spider Emperor. In terms of strength and talent potential, he far surpasses Spider Emperor, and Mu Yun would never abandon him. In the Ancient Great World over there, Mu Yun has schemes that allow Emperor Tian Tu to temporarily possess the strength of an Emperor General, which you must note."

"Indeed."

On hearing this, everyone felt chills run down their spines.

In other words, had Emperor Tian Tu truly intended to act, he could have wiped them all out at once!

Because that fellow could temporarily exert the strength of an Emperor General.

While they, suppressed by Heavenly Dao, could at most perform at Invincible Great Sage level.

An insurmountable chasm between the two!

"No wonder Emperor Ye did not choose negotiation, instead opting for a strong counterattack. If he had chosen negotiation, this guy might have immediately struck!"

Yun Daoli said in a deep voice, his expression somewhat grim.

"No."

Ye Xuan shook his head, speaking calmly: "He did not lie about this matter; the Double Emperors did send him to propose negotiation."

"Ah?"

The group was somewhat puzzled.

Negotiation for real?

"Negotiation is not the point; because whether it’s the Double Emperors or Emperor Tian Tu, they know I can’t agree. They want to use this to assess my current tactics."

Ye Xuan’s lips curled slightly, a hint of mockery in his eyes; he saw through their ploys at a glance.

That was why he decisively chose to counterattack, leaving Emperor Tian Tu hesitant to act recklessly.

Had he merely refused without countering, Emperor Tian Tu would have undoubtedly struck first.

Yet his display of the Emperor’s Shadow and Emperor Soul thoroughly dampened Emperor Tian Tu, making him cautious.

Emperor Tian Tu was unsure if Ye Xuan had other cards up his sleeve and thus could only retreat.

However, this was also because Ye Xuan was not entirely certain of Mu Yun’s maneuvers in the Ancient Great World; otherwise, he wouldn’t be so cautious.

Essentially, it was a perilous balance on a knife edge.

A slight misstep could lead to dire consequences.

"However, from this guy’s words, we can deduce that our Revenge Lineage in the Heavenly Domain seems to pose a severe dilemma for the Double Emperors."

Yun Daoli stroked his chin, analyzing the information revealed in Emperor Tian Tu’s words.

This information was exhilarating for them.

’For the Revenge Lineage to truly obliterate the Double Emperors’ forces, it would be but a flick of the fingers.’

Ye Xuan remained composed, though he didn’t voice this thought.

No one was more aware than the Undying Night Emperor, the creator of the Revenge Lineage, of its deep and complex nature.

There was just no necessity—yet.

Currently in the Heavenly Domain, only a couple of factions of the Revenge Lineage reveal themselves to the Double Emperors.

Black Blade Sect and Asura Hall.

As for Mystical Hall and Undying Pavilion, or Void Sect and Dao Xuan Sect, they remain largely concealed.

The Double Emperors only know of leaders Ning Shenji of Mystical Hall, Qi Changsheng of Undying Pavilion, and Zhou Xuanlin of Dao Xuan Sect.

They don’t even know who leads Void Sect.

Battle directly involves only Black Blade Sect and Asura Hall.

Black Blade Sect led by Nangong Bai, Asura Hall by Tan Xiaolu.

Both are formidable within the Revenge Lineage.

Just these two individuals have put the Double Emperors in a tight spot.

By the time the Double Emperors understand the entire Revenge Lineage, they will regret betraying Ye Xuan.

Nonetheless...

They may not see that day.

"Emperor Ye, what about these guys?"

Bai Zhiyu glanced at the three Invincible Giants, raising an eyebrow.

Ye Xuan returned from his thoughts, looking towards Huanggui Tianwen, and said coolly, "Two choices: submission... or death."

On hearing this, Huanggui Tianwen burst into laughter: "In former years, I was the Protector of the Empress; whether or not you can kill me aside, even if you can, do you have the courage?"

With these words, Bai Zhiyu gave Huanggui Tianwen a peculiar look and said, "I say, old timer, you’re quite amusing, haven’t you seen that even Emperor Tian Tu fled just now? Yet you continue spouting nonsense here?"
