The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 867 - 864: Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor

Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect.

After Ye Xuan reappeared, the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect was engulfed in a tense atmosphere.

Receiving Ye Xuan’s command, Zuo Yishan took immediate action, personally going to meet the venerable elders of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect and ordering Zuo Yangming to cooperate with Ye Xuan’s plans, ensuring that no one in the entire Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect was allowed to leave the sect.

This command precisely caused the entire Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect to fall into a state of tension.

Ordinary disciples naturally couldn’t understand what this meant.

Under usual circumstances, the disciples of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect would go out to complete tasks, earning the Sect’s merit points and then cultivating more powerful cultivation techniques.

Since joining the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, they had never experienced such a thing.

Not just them, even the senior elders of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect were puzzled, unable to understand what this action was for.

Some even speculated they were going to make a move against Ye Xuan, but this was directly dismissed by Zuo Yangming, who simply said the Sect was about to undertake something enormous, and everyone should just quietly wait.

Naturally, there were many elders dissatisfied with such an answer.

Even though they held high positions, they couldn’t get a proper answer, which was really unsatisfying.

However, there were also calm elders who guessed the seriousness of the matter, feeling incredibly grave.

In truth, since the elimination of the Double Emperor Mountain’s moles, they had already guessed quite a few things.

The current actions of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect seemed to confirm their suspicions.

However, they still couldn’t quite understand why, if they were really going to take action against Double Emperor Mountain, would they shut down the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect?

This was a bit illogical.

While the entire Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect was speculating on the higher-ups’ decisions, Ye Xuan returned to Zhou Youwei’s side, taking her to an ancient hall within the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect.

This ancient hall, named the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Hall, was rumored to be used in the first Emperor Battle initiated by the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor back in the day for sacrificial rituals.

Of course, this rumor had long since ceased to circulate.

Otherwise, the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect wouldn’t have abandoned this Ancient Hall here like this.

But if anyone dared trespass here, the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect would certainly punish them.

The reason Ye Xuan could come here was naturally because Zuo Yishan knew Ye Xuan’s identity; Ye Xuan could walk freely in the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect without anyone daring to stop him.

This ancient hall wasn’t large, appearing exceptionally ancient, and outside the ancient hall on the Dao grounds, there were still tables set up, with incense burners, ancient swords, divine talismans, and other items placed on them.

"Is the rumor that Husband mentioned true?" Looking at the items on the Dao grounds, Zhou Youwei couldn’t help but ask in surprise.

Ye Xuan slightly smiled and said: "Of course it’s true, but back then, the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor did not use these items for sacrificial rituals, but rather... Emperor’s Blood."

"Emperor’s Blood..." Zhou Youwei’s exquisitely beautiful face showed a hint of surprise.

"Indeed, Emperor’s Blood." Ye Xuan nodded and said, "Throughout endless ages, numerous eras have been born. After the Primordial Wilderness Era, it was the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor who ushered in a new era. That era was called the Emperor Era. He ascended to the Emperor Position as a member of the Human Clan, restoring the glory of the human race reminiscent of the era of Sword Emperor Huang Chunqiu, which drew the dissatisfaction of other powerful races. Thus, he launched the Emperor Battle, using the blood of the Emperors of those powerful races for sacrificial rituals, initiating the first Emperor Battle since ancient times..."

At this point, Ye Xuan’s expression took on a touch of reverie.

The Emperor Era was too far removed from the current era.

Yet for Ye Xuan, it seemed like it was just yesterday.

At that time, he had also advised the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor to proceed cautiously, because traditionally, human emperors were indeed weaker than emperors of other races, as if it was an inherent flaw.

This had led to the powerful races in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds frequently bullying the human race.

The Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor naturally didn’t want the human race to always suffer disdain, choosing the most forceful way to resolve the issue.

That was to show All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds exactly how the so-called humble worms would defy the heavens!

Thus, the Emperor Battle that shook the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds was unleashed.

Emperor Battle.

As the name suggests, a battle of Great Emperors!

All along, there was an unwritten rule among Great Emperors.

That was after becoming an emperor, one absolutely must not casually use their power, otherwise, it would be an absolute disaster for All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

However, the emergence of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor broke the norm, as he chose the Heavenly Sea, the most mysterious and terrifying Forbidden Land in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, as the battlefield for the Emperor Battle!

Of course, even Great Emperors didn’t dare easily venture into the Heavenly Sea, so they chose to conduct the Emperor Battle outside the Heavenly Sea.

This way, it wouldn’t affect All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, nor would it cause them to be entrenched in the Heavenly Sea.

No one thought that the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor, the latecomer, would win in that Emperor Battle, and in their eyes, the human race was nothing more than humble worms, not worth mentioning.

Even though several peerless human figures had become emperors before the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor, it still didn’t change their view.

And this, too, was the fundamental reason why the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor initiated the Emperor Battle.

As for the specifics of how that Emperor Battle was fought, no one knows.

All that is known is that by the time that Emperor Battle ended, over a thousand years had passed.

It wasn’t until much later that news surfaced saying that the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor had returned to the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect.

As for the other Great Emperors from the powerful races, no information about them could be obtained.

So the result of that Emperor Battle is self-evident.

In the history of the human race, the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor is definitely one of the figures with the greatest merit, even not inferior to Ou Zhizi or Sword Emperor Huang Chunqiu.

And years ago, when the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor conducted the sacrificial ritual here, Ye Xuan watched that scene in secret.

After the sacrificial ritual, the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Emperor met Ye Xuan privately, smiling like a child, and said to Ye Xuan: "Master, this disciple has accomplished it."

All of it seemed like it happened just yesterday.

"Where did Husband see these things?" Zhou Youwei looked at Ye Xuan with a puzzled expression.

Every time, she felt like the things Ye Xuan talked about were as if he had experienced them firsthand, which was a very peculiar feeling.

Ye Xuan snapped back to reality, smiled faintly, and said, "Many of these things can actually be found in historical texts. For example, the Three Great Houses of the Confucian, they read historical texts thoroughly and know many things."

Zhou Youwei blinked, looked Ye Xuan up and down, and rolled her eyes, saying, "Last time I went to Wan’an City to see my grandpa, I asked him, and he said you didn’t like to read as a child."

Ye Xuan grinned, looked at Zhou Youwei, and said something half true and half false: "Actually, it was during the five years I was muddled and confused that I saw them."

"You’re just bluffing..." Zhou Youwei snorted softly, naturally not believing Ye Xuan’s nonsense, and turned to enter the ancient hall.

Ye Xuan watched Zhou Youwei’s back, smiled slightly, and followed her in.
