Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

A terrifying aura covered the entire Celestial Island.

The people on the Celestial Island were already under lots of pressure because of their Palace Master's aura, but as soon as this new aura appeared, it became even harder for them to breathe.

This new aura was not weaker than the pressure of their Palace Master at all. If anything, it only looked stronger since it was felt with bloodlust.

The Eternal Emperor hadn't arrived alone either. Multiple voids opened up all around the Celestial Island, from where the strongest Generals of the Eternal Dynasty stepped out, all of them being a Heavenly Celestial!

It was as if the entire Celestial Island was surrounded by gods. Behind the Eternal Emperor, there was Ye Han, and another General.

The Celestial Palace Master was already very upset, after everything that happened. However, he realized that things had only gotten worse, now that the Eternal Emperor was here.

The Eternal Emperor glanced at Xu Shan, who appeared to be done. A look of relief flashed in his eyes.

He waved his hand. The barrier that was cast by the Celestial Palace Master around his son broke in an instant.

Xu Shan felt as if his body was suddenly floating in the air. He rose in the sky, ending right next to his Father.

"That's why I told you to not leave the Dynasty. The world is dangerous." He held the wrist of his son, checking if he was fine, while talking to him.

From the calm way he was talking, it didn't appear as if he was in someone else's territory where a battle could start at any time.

However, for some reason, Xu Shan had a strange feeling. It was as if the Emperor was a little too concerned... He even felt as if the Emperor was very scared when he rushed here. That's why his breathing still wasn't completely calm.

The more he saw the behavior of the Eternal Emperor, the more confused he became. Just why? Xu Shan was sure that if another son was here, then the Eternal Emperor wouldn't have been like this. Even if the Crown Prince had died, he would've been angry, but not scared like this.

If possible, he would've liked to ask the man directly. Unfortunately, that wasn't possible.

"Can we talk?" The Celestial Palace Master asked, calming himself. Now that the protective barrier was broken, they were wide open to any attacks. He didn't want to fall into the trap set by the Qin Dynasty.

"There has been a misunderstanding. We've all fallen for the trap of the Qin Dynasty, like last time. Even my son has died, while your son was attacked by people who were under the effect of this..."

The Palace Master tossed the three Ghost Flags on the ground, bringing everyone's attention to it.

"The Ghost Flags? Isn't that the treasure of the Qin Dynasty that can help them control a few weaklings?" The General behind the Eternal Emperor commented, frowning.

On the other hand, the Eternal Emperor looked into the distance, noticing how much loss the Celestial Palace had suffered. He also noticed Yu Ming's lifeless body on the ground. And the presence of the three flags... It certainly painted a different picture.

"He's telling the truth." While the Eternal Emperor was thinking, Xu Shan commented.

After destroying everything in this place, he now intended to help the Palace Master and in return, win his favor and remove the last shreds of suspicion.

He told his father what had happened, since his father was more prone to believe him. Moreover, he didn't forget to mention that the Palace Master protected him when he was attacked.

As he spoke, he wasn't loud. Since he was sure that even if he spoke in his normal tone, the Celestial Palace Master could hear him.

Just as he expected, the Celestial Palace Master felt some gratitude toward Xu Shan. Even though they had behaved so badly with him before, in the end, he had saved so many lives by preventing this battle.

The Eternal Emperor revealed a look of understanding. Even though he knew there was probably more to this story than he was told, he didn't ask about it.

He raised his hand, gesturing all his Generals to stop. They weren't going to attack the Celestial Palace.

Instead, he landed on the ground with everyone else, retreating his aura. He walked closer to Yu Ming, checking his nerves. Unfortunately, even he couldn't find any traces of life.

"I suppose we need to talk about what happened in private, after you bury your son." He walked with his hands behind his back, maintaining a Monarch's dignity. Even though he had retracted his aura, still people didn't dare look at him, as if they were scared of offending this god.

The Celestial Palace Master glanced at his son one last time. He picked up his lifeless son. Yu Ming's body felt weightless, but his presence was still heavy in the air. The Celestial Palace Master closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then started walking away with slow and steady steps.

He didn't forget to tell the Great Elder to escort the Emperor to the main hall.

Xu Shan also followed his father, taking a subtle glance at Ye Han, as if praising him for the good work.

Ye Han could only scratch the back of his head. It was the first time he hid something from the Emperor. However, since it was all to destroy the Dynasty's enemies, he went along with it.

While Xu Shan followed his son, multiple Generals from the Eternal Dynasty followed them.

The Celestial Palace members who used to detect Xu Shan previously, didn't even raise their heads. They had realized that Xu Shan was someone that they didn't even have the right to be jealous of. He was someone far above them.

The kind of strength that the Eternal Dynasty possessed was scary. It wasn't called one of the few surviving Ancient Dynasties for no reason after all…
