The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 1663 - 1660: Traitor

"That guy wouldn’t have gone to the Dark Demon Sea, would he? That would surely be a death sentence..."

The spirit who had previously wielded the Dark Giant Hammer spoke up.

"The person accompanying him is clearly from the Exotic Realm. Perhaps that person is also from there, attempting to return after passing through the Emperor Pass Great Wall."

Another voice said that.

"No, he is of pure Human Clan blood."

The previous elderly voice slowly said.

"Ha, what about the Human Clan’s nature, do we need to say more..."

The same voice scoffed.

The elderly voice solemnly said, "What do you mean? In the war back then, did we, the Human Clan, not contribute enough?"

That voice lazily replied, "I don’t deny your contributions, but the foolish things the Human Clan did, I truly don’t wish to say more."

The two seemed on the brink of a quarrel.

All other voices fell silent at this moment, seemingly unwilling or...

Afraid to participate.

"Why don’t we make a wager."

The elderly voice coldly said, "If that guy is a traitor, you needn’t say a word, I’ll willingly disperse my spirit."

"But if he’s not, what do you have to say?"

The elderly voice coldly stated.

The other voice replied lazily, "A boring trick, fine then, with nothing else to do, I’ll wager with you. If that guy isn’t a traitor, I’ll take him as an heir."

The elderly voice scoffed, "You’re really something, profiting regardless of win or loss."

Despite his dissatisfaction with this guy’s actions, the elderly voice had nothing more to say.

Though he didn’t get along with this guy, he knew this guy’s strength was terrifying, becoming his heir would be a great fortune.

After all...

This Human Clan youngster was the first creature to come here after that war.

No other voices were heard, but the spirits on the Emperor Pass Great Wall were all focused on the ancient battlefield, wanting to see whether Ye Xuan had gone to the Dark Demon Sea or returned.

As time passed, the atmosphere grew slightly delicate.

It seemed some spirits already regarded Ye Xuan as a person from the Exotic Realm, going to the Dark Demon Sea, reaching that world.

Yet soon enough, beneath the Emperor Pass Great Wall, two figures emerged from the mist.

It was Ye Xuan and the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

Seeing that scene, an elderly spirit smiled.

This was precisely the spirit with the elderly voice from before.

"Don’t rush to laugh, first see if he can ascend the Emperor Pass Great Wall."

Not far away, a vague and enormous figure spoke, the voice being the one who wagered with the elderly spirit.

Emperor Pass Great Wall.

No doors.

Whether from within or outside the Emperor Pass Great Wall, one could only go to the other side by scaling the wall.

But within the Emperor Pass Great Wall was inscribed a powerful array, capable of repelling foreign enemies and exposing Exotic Realm creatures.

Ye Xuan had exited from within the Emperor Pass Great Wall to the ancient battlefield, naturally not triggering the wall’s external array response.

Returning from the ancient battlefield, however, was not so easy.

If identified as a person from the Exotic Realm by the Emperor Pass Great Wall, he would face endless lethal obstruction.

At this moment, Ye Xuan and the Nine Netherworld Phoenix were already near the base of the Emperor Pass Great Wall.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix naturally understood this as well, and recited it to Ye Xuan, then hid on Ye Xuan’s body, entering its own Jiuyou Netherworld.

As per Nine Netherworld Phoenix’s own assertion, if caught by the Emperor Pass Great Wall’s endless killing force, it would be certain death.

To this, Ye Xuan said little.

He still had a use for the Nine Netherworld Phoenix, and naturally wouldn’t let it die here.

With the Nine Netherworld Phoenix, Ye Xuan flew towards the Emperor Pass Great Wall.

Rumbling————

Upon approaching the Emperor Pass Great Wall, within the wall, a terrifying sound emerged, accompanied by mysterious lights forming Flying Swords, shooting towards Ye Xuan!

"What!?"

The spirits on the Emperor Pass Great Wall were astonished at the scene.

For they all knew well that Ye Xuan was of pure Human Clan descent, having walked out from within the wall, completely ruling out the possibility of being from the Exotic Realm.

But when the Nine Netherworld Phoenix appeared, crossed the Emperor Pass Great Wall, and reached Ye Xuan, it made some believe Ye Xuan might be a traitor.

Though that was only a possibility.

Another possibility was that Ye Xuan subdued the Exotic Realm creature.

Such things had happened before.

But the reaction Ye Xuan drew from the Emperor Pass Great Wall was enough to indicate something was wrong with Ye Xuan!

Very wrong!

The elderly spirit’s face turned extremely unsightly.

Moments ago, he had been confidently declaring how Ye Xuan was not a traitor.

Yet now, Ye Xuan faced resistance from the Emperor Pass Great Wall.

All signs pointed to Ye Xuan likely being a person from the Exotic Realm.

"Looks like our bet is off."

The spirit who wagered against the elderly spirit teased.

The elderly spirit’s face was grim as he coldly said, "Once this knave is killed, I’ll fulfill the wager by dispersing my spirit."

Willing to wager, willing to lose; nothing more to say.

The other spirit impatiently replied, "Alright, alright, though we don’t get along, I know the bigger picture is more important."

"Huh?"

"Something’s wrong!"

At this moment, the elderly spirit suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Simultaneously, the other spirits also noticed something was off.

The imposing manifestations initially directed at Ye Xuan had all halted, not attempting to kill him.

Ye Xuan also looked puzzled.

When did he become an Exotic Realm creature?

Has something gone wrong with the Emperor Pass Great Wall?

Ye Xuan instinctively activated his Silent Annihilation Immortal Body, preparing to act, while Guo Hezu unsheathed and hovered beside him.

Yet the wall’s manifestations froze instantly.

Then, the myriad of Flying Swords voluntarily dispersed, clearing a path for Ye Xuan.

Meanwhile, those Flying Swords seemed to acknowledge their master, bowing deeply.

Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow, not thinking it was due to the Silent Annihilation Immortal Body.

Rather...

It was Guo Hezu.

Ye Xuan’s gaze fell on Guo Hezu, eyes deep and contemplative.

Ye Xuan had previously remarked that Guo Hezu was undoubtedly the foremost sword in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, as well as the Heavenly Domain.

None could surpass it.

Apparently, Guo Hezu’s origins were even more astounding than he imagined.

An unexpected delight.

Ye Xuan smirked, soaring towards the Emperor Pass Great Wall’s parapet.

And this scene, naturally, caught the attention of those spirits.

"It’s that sword..."

At this moment, both the elderly spirit and the other powerful spirit were visibly shocked, unable to hide their amazement.

After a while, the elderly being exhaled deeply, then smiled, "Do you still plan to make him your heir?"

The other powerful spirit was silent for a while, then self-mockingly smiled, "How could I be qualified..."

Guo Hezu’s appearance made both spirits change their views of Ye Xuan.

Yet Ye Xuan was unaware of all this.

With Guo Hezu, Ye Xuan smoothly returned to the Emperor Pass Great Wall’s parapet.

But this time, Ye Xuan saw two people.

An extremely elderly man, deeply wrinkled.

A young man with purple hair and double pupils.

These two were precisely those two spirits.

Seeing Ye Xuan return to the parapet, both bowed in unison.
