The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 449 - 450: He is the Emperor
Chapter 449 -450: He is the Emperor
With Lin Qian’s roar ringing out, the three types of Soul Power within him erupted simultaneously, and the terrifying aura mixed with Soul Power shook the surroundings, as the burning Emperor’s Robe materialized around him.
Fu Deqing’s complexion drastically changed as he quickly concentrated his Soul Power to envelop and protect himself, watching Lin Qian before him in horror.
Seeing is believing, and despite having heard Wang Gang’s description, witnessing the twelve layers of Soul Light on Lin Qian still deeply shocked Fu Deqing.
The layers upon layers of dazzling Soul Light left Fu Deqing somewhat intoxicated. Could the Human Clan really be this powerful?
Merely the burst of Soul Power was enough to send him retreating dozens of feet away.
At the same time, three streaks of light flew rapidly from the distance and arrived beside Fu Deqing in an instant. Who else could it be if not Wang Qiongxing, He Baili, and Xu Wuwei?
“Gang-er was right,” seeing Lin Qian adorned in the burning Emperor’s Robe and shrouded in three types of Soul Power, bathed within the twelve layers of Soul Light, like a deity descending upon the world.
Moreover, Yue Liqun opposite of Lin Qian and the sixty Soul Martial Artists behind him had all been sent flying backward, retreating more than ten yards.
Yue Liqun and the sixty Soul Martial Artists with him were all reeling in mid-air, spitting blood and clutching their chests.
Had it not been for Yue Liqun blocking in front of them, these Life and Death Realm Soul Martial Artists would likely have been shaken to death by Lin Qian’s explosive Soul Power.
After all, they hadn’t taken the refining Potion, and though their Realm reached the Life and Death Realm, their true strength wasn’t much more than the Sky Breaking Realm’s Sky Crossing Stage – no match for the shockwave of Lin Qian’s Soul Power release.
“I haven’t even made a move, and you’re already in such a state, truly laughable,” Lin Qian said, pointing at Yue Liqun with an expression of disbelief and disdain, “I have been to a Small World where the Human Clan was reared as food by foreign races. They knew fear and despair, but they never once doubted their own lineage like you do, they never lacked self-confidence to this extent.”
“People like you are worthless; don’t project your own thoughts onto everyone else.” Looking at Yue Liqun, the scorn in Lin Qian’s eyes grew even more intense as he turned to Fu Deqing, “For your sake, I won’t take his life. But he is not allowed to use the refining Potion; let him stay this way for the rest of his life.”
“After all, he doesn’t believe in me. Allow him to continue in his disbelief, watching the rest of our kind restore the true stature of the Human Clan.”
After speaking, Lin Qian turned and left, feeling extremely disgusted by people like Yue Liqun.
Countless pieces of evidence and facts lay before him, yet he turned a blind eye, stubbornly clinging to his flawed beliefs, forcing others to subscribe to his errors, even going so far as to say he would capture Lin Qian himself.
Such people are indeed laughable.
After Lin Qian left, Fu Deqing looked at Yue Liqun with a heavy sigh, “Liqun, why are you so stubborn? You’re ruining your future with your own hands.”
That his disciple was guaranteed his life was already fortunate; Fu Deqing shook his head repeatedly and turned to leave, deeply disappointed in Yue Liqun.
Wang Qiongxing, He Baili, and Xu Wuwei looked at Yue Liqun with helpless shakes of their heads.
He Baili and Xu Wuwei left first, and Wang Qiongxing looked at the dazed Yue Liqun, “I watched you grow up, remember this – do not do anything rash, or you’ll risk your very life.”
Finally, Wang Qiongxing soared away, leaving Yue Liqun and his companions suspended in mid-air, lost in shock.
“Clan Leader, look!” A Soul Martial Artist next to Yue Liqun suddenly pointed down and exclaimed.
Yue Liqun shifted his gaze, following the direction the Soul Martial Artist was pointing, and immediately his eyes widened in disbelief.
In the dense forest below, they were astonished to see a team composed of members from the Four Clans, currently hunting a Soul Beast.
Despite the team having only eight people, no less than four of them were from the Human Clan.
In the forest below, all four humans were equipped with Elemental Weapon Armaments, engaging in fierce combat with the two Soul Beasts in front of them. Their weapons imbued with Soul Power clashing against the beasts’ sharp claws, the sounds of impact and the scattering Soul Power were incessant, as sweat poured off the four humans.
“Now’s the time.” Suddenly, one of the humans shouted out. The two Red Horn Clan members beside him, who had been ready to strike, used their powerful physiques to slam into the two Soul Beasts with force.
The two unbalanced Soul Beasts let out pitiful howls as they fell to the ground. At that moment, the four humans quickly stepped forward, thrusting their Primordial Weapons with precision into the beasts’ throats and hearts and then swiftly retreating.
Despite the fatal wounds, the Soul Beasts’ vitality was extremely tenacious. They writhed in their death throes, continuously pounding the ground and kicking up dust.
Fortunately, the group had already retreated in advance and managed to avoid any accidental injuries.
“Hahaha, that’s how it’s done!” The human who had given the earlier command laughed excitedly. Gathering together with the others, they embraced one another, slinging arms over each other’s shoulders in celebration. Despite being from different races, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
In midair, Yue Liqun watched the scene below in stunned silence, unable to utter a word, while the Soul Martialists from the Life and Death Realm behind him were full of astonishment.
“Did you notice that although they are only at the Nirvana Realm, their combat power is comparable to that of the Human Clan’s Soul Martialists in the Sky Breaking Realm?” freewēbnoveℓ.com
“Perhaps what that mysterious elder of the human clan said is true. They aren’t just comparable to those in the Sky Breaking Realm; they possess the true strength of the Nirvana Realm!”
“Unbelievable. I’ve never seen a hunting party where humans take the lead in giving orders and act as the main force, able to fight head-on with Soul Beasts without falling behind.”
Listening to the discussions of those brought by himself and observing the situation below, reflecting on everything that had happened, Yue Liqun finally understood that he had been gravely mistaken.
Remembering Lin Qian’s words from before, Yue Liqun began to realize what he had truly lost.
Just like his master had said, he had personally ruined his own future.
Upon returning to the gathering place, Fu Deqing, who stayed beside Lin Qian, hesitated to speak.
“There’s no need to say more. Those who blind their own eyes and refuse to accept reality will naturally be eliminated and abandoned. They bring about their own destruction,” Lin Qian said, turning his head to look at Fu Deqing, “Just for the thought of capturing me, he should be punished by law. Sparing his life is already the greatest concession.”
After speaking, Lin Qian turned to Wang Qiongxing, “Have all representatives from the Ancient Forest World who are now willing to submit to me and can speak with authority come to this place. Those unwilling to submit won’t be forced, but they should also not harbor any superfluous thoughts. I will not always be this lenient.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qian had already descended into the courtyard above the gathering place, entering the bedroom to continue his cultivation and stabilize his condition.
The incident with Shen Yi prompted Lin Qian’s mindset to grow. His experiences made him realize something.
In his previous life, he was indeed just a wealthy player for whom the Huaxia Empire was merely a game.
But this life was different. The Huaxia Empire he controlled was a real entity, and Shen Yi’s cruel slaughter of the Four Clans’ children woke Lin Qian up to the fact that he was in a brutal world filled with hundreds of clans.
Lin Qian was no longer just a player of a game…
He was the Emperor!
