Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Anning had been crying for a long time, unable to stop the tears.

Over the years, she had desperately numbed herself every day, never allowing herself a moment to rest.

She feared that once she stopped, she would collapse, leaving the dynasty without a leader and failing his expectations of her.

He had said he would return, asking her to remain hopeful.

Today, he returned, and he did not break his promise!

Jun Wuxie tenderly stroked her hair, noticing how much weight she had lost and how her usual radiance had faded.

He knew that Anning had endured great torment over the years.

Everyone around him had endured great torment.

"It's alright, I'm fine now that I'm back, and similar things won't happen again."

Jun Wuxie comforted her.

After a long time, she gradually stopped sobbing, looking up at him with her tear-streaked, pale face.

"In the future, you should worry less about the dynasty's affairs and leave them to the ministers.

I will arrange for reliable people to oversee everything, and there won't be any problems.

You should spend more time on cultivation.

In the coming days, don't attend court; stay by my side, and let me spend some quality time with you all."

Thinking about his upcoming departure to the Godly Ancient World, a separation that would last for a long time, perhaps many years before they could reunite, he couldn't help but feel even more indebted to them.

In this life, cultivation and resisting the dark invasion were the main themes of his life.

Although he was the main force in the dark invasions of both the Lower and Upper Realms,

if it weren't for so many people joining forces to fight the enemy, even if the dark creatures were defeated, both realms would be riddled with holes, and it would take a long time to recover.

The forces he established were all managed by the people around him.

They had sacrificed a lot.

"Yes, Ning'er will listen to her husband."

Anning wiped away her tears and left his embrace, her face slightly flushed.

The many gazes around them made her feel a little shy, and she was too embarrassed to continue clinging to him.

"Second Senior Sister, Third Senior Sister."

Jun Wuxie took a few steps forward, walking to the entrance of the courtyard.

Yun Shu and Yi Ling had already rushed over from Qingyun.

At this moment, they were looking at him with tears streaming down their faces.

"It's good that you're back."

Yun Shu had a thousand words in her heart, but in the end, she only uttered these four words.

Nothing else mattered; nothing else needed to be said.

It was enough that he was alive!

"If Junior Brother hadn't come back to life, our dynasty would have lost its vitality.

It's so good now; the vitality of all living beings in this world has been restored…"

Yi Ling said, crying and laughing at the same time.

"I've worried you all."

Jun Wuxie sighed, realizing he had too many attachments, but conversely, he was also the attachment of countless people, his life and death affecting everyone's hearts.

In the future, when facing the doomsday torrent, he must not push himself to this extent again.

Although he would not die, having cultivated the Innate Undying Secret Art, resurrection was only a matter of time.

But the people who cared about him did not know that; they were not so certain in their hearts.

"Come, everyone, come in and sit down; don't just stand there."

Jun Wuxie invited Shenxi and the others into the courtyard.

A group of people sat around the jade table in the courtyard, brewing a pot of divine tea.

Jun Wuxie spoke about his Innate Undying Secret Art, telling them about its effects to give them more confidence in him.

Afterward, he mentioned the soldiers who had died in the doomsday torrent.

Anning said that the Cosmos Soul Gathering Array had been arranged by people at the end of the doomsday torrent.

The Hall of Heroes had already been built, and a soul-nurturing array was also set up inside.

Over the years, it had gathered a large number of the shattered soul fragments of the soldiers.

"In that case, I can rest assured."

Jun Wuxie nodded.

"Husband, the Eight-Nine Profound Palace and the Tower of Trials."

Anning presented the two artifacts to him.

"The Tower of Trials will remain in this world; Ning'er, you can keep it.

When Master and Mistress awaken, they will come out on their own.

It is not appropriate for me to take them to the Godly Ancient World."

Jun Wuxie only kept the Eight-Nine Profound Palace.

The Nine Beginnings Exquisite Pagoda had already been taken into the Profound Palace by Anning.

"Yuzhu, are you ready to leave?"

Jun Wuxie took the Eight-Nine Profound Palace into his body and looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhu.

"Yes."

She did not hesitate.

"Good, I will now have your ancestor take you away."

As soon as he finished speaking, he used the power of his Dao Fruit to contact the Xuanyuan Emperor.

At this moment, in a certain world, the Xuanyuan Emperor, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in the Void Dojo, suddenly opened his eyes.

"It's you?

How did you contact this Emperor?"

The Xuanyuan Emperor was surrounded by the order of the Great Dao, making his whole person look hazy; only a blurry shadow could be seen, and the space around his body was twisted in layers.

He was filled with astonishment.

He was certain that Jun Wuxie had contacted him himself, and not relying on the Heavenly Emperor behind him.

Across so many universes, and with so many orders of the Great Dao between them, including some orders left by the Heavenly Emperor,

even the Heavenly Emperor would not be able to directly lock onto him.

"Never mind how I found you.

There is something I want to ask you to do."

"What is it?"

The Xuanyuan Emperor was somewhat surprised.

This young man had the existence of the Heavenly Emperor behind him; what could he need his help with?

"Take Yuzhu to other worlds to train, and personally protect her Dao."

"What? You want this dignified Universe Emperor Realm expert to personally protect the Dao of a junior?

Don't you think this request is a bit excessive?

This Emperor has many things to do and must also comprehend the Dao of the Heavenly Emperor; I'm afraid I don't have the extra energy to care about Yuzhu."

"Is it excessive?

Yuzhu is your descendant.

You should know that she has roots.

In her previous life, powerful ancient blood of the Heavenly Emperor's family flowed in her body.

In this life, she also carries the blood of your Xuanyuan clan.

In the future, when the two ancient bloodlines awaken, if they can merge with each other, it will produce a qualitative change, evolving the bloodline physique to a new height.

To put it bluntly, Yuzhu's future achievements will not be weaker than yours, and may even be higher than yours.

Such a promising descendant, as the ancestor of the Xuanyuan clan, don't you have the responsibility and obligation to cultivate her well?

Although time seems ample, in reality, considering the self-growth rate of the world's geniuses, it is actually very pressing.

We need to provide them with appropriate assistance.

Otherwise, even if they are born in this special great era, when the top-level powerhouses of darkness appear, they will be difficult to grow to a level that can match them."

"Little friend, when I left behind the Godslayer and the secret realm, you got a lot of benefits, right?

You didn't repay me, but you're actually ordering this Emperor around."

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this.

"It seems that you're not unwilling to personally protect Yuzhu's Dao.

You just feel that since I brought it up, it would be too embarrassing for you, a dignified Universe Emperor, to agree so easily, right?"

"Nonsense, is this Emperor the kind of person who stubbornly clings to face?"

The Xuanyuan Emperor's tone was slightly angry, as if he was being insulted.

"You are; don't deny it; I've already seen through you."

The corners of the Xuanyuan Emperor's mouth twitched slightly, shrouded in the mist of the Great Dao. "Is this the attitude of a little friend asking for help? Can't we talk properly?

Little friend's attitude is very bad; this Emperor doesn't agree!"

"Really don't agree?"

"The current Universe Emperor naturally speaks with utmost authority; if I say I don't agree, then I don't agree!

Little friend wouldn't use the Heavenly Emperor behind you to pressure this Emperor, would you?

Unless little friend straightens up your attitude, speaks properly, and has the posture of someone asking for help.

Come on, this Emperor is waiting to see your performance.

For Yuzhu's sake, this Emperor wants to see what you can do?"

"Since you, Xuanyuan Emperor, are so firm, then this matter will not be mentioned again.

My ancestral master is about to break through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm; I don't know what the situation has been like these years; I should go back and take a look."

"What did you say?"

The Xuanyuan Emperor, who was sitting cross-legged in the Void Dojo, suddenly stood up.

"Impossible! The Heavenly Emperor Realm is not so easy to break through!

Heavenly Sword One, isn't he in the Universe Emperor Realm?

How could he be so fast?"

"What's so strange about that? Not only is my ancestral master comprehending the Dao of the Heavenly Emperor, but so is my ancestral master's wife.

Oh, right, there's also the Void Master of the Nether Ruins; he will definitely comprehend the Dao of the Heavenly Emperor faster than you.

Perhaps your comprehension is much worse than theirs.

Therefore, you find it unbelievable.

The path of cultivation is sometimes like this; comparing people is infuriating; you can't accept it even if you don't want to."

"Little friend, are you deliberately trying to anger this Emperor?"

The Xuanyuan Emperor was shocked and filled with curiosity.

Was what he said true?

Heavenly Sword One, the Phoenix Queen, and the Void Master were all comprehending the Dao of the Heavenly Emperor?

"This Emperor doesn't believe it!

In terms of comprehension, how could this Emperor be weaker than them?

The Red Dust Sword Manual that this Emperor created was affirmed by the Heavenly Emperor back then, who considered this method amazing!

Is this Emperor's comprehension worse than your ancestral master and the others?"

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but chuckle inwardly upon hearing this.

This Xuanyuan still had a competitive nature.

"Whether you believe it or not, their realms are there, undiminished.

Honestly speaking, I'm not trying to discourage you, but your comprehension is really quite ordinary.

That Red Dust Sword Manual seems good, but in fact, there are many problems with the details.

Even a low-realm cultivator like me can refine the Red Dust Sword Manual, making its power even stronger.

Therefore, when it comes to comprehension, you might not even be as good as me."

"What?

Hahaha, little friend, are you making fun of this Emperor?"

"I knew you wouldn't believe it; after all, you are too headstrong, which is actually a sign of being a frog in a well.

Forget it; seeing how confident you are, I'll reluctantly give you a little blow."

After speaking, Jun Wu Xie shared some of the cultivation secrets of the Refined and Upgraded Mortal World Sword Manual with the Xuanyuan Emperor.

The Xuanyuan Emperor was stunned upon receiving the secret techniques!

There were many details in the partial techniques of the Mortal World Sword Manual that differed from what he had created, and they were even more profound!

Before this, he couldn't have imagined that the details of the sword manual could be improved in such a way, and the effects were so miraculous!

This was a method of simplifying complexity, but the effect it had was incredibly astonishing!

"Could this be the work of the Heavenly Emperor behind you?"

He naturally didn't believe that the Mortal World Sword Manual was improved by Jun Wu Xie, it was simply a fantasy.

"Do you think the Heavenly Emperor has nothing to do, endless energy, and the mind to improve other people's techniques? With that bit of energy, why not improve his own techniques?

If it were you, would you do that?"

Speaking of this, Jun Wu Xie explained a few sentences about the essence of the sword manual in his own unique way, and each sentence was extremely easy to understand.

The Xuanyuan Emperor's mind was greatly shaken.

He had never thought that it could be possible to explain cultivation techniques of this level so clearly and understandably, it was simply unbelievable and unheard of!

"Little friend, who exactly are you?"

The Xuanyuan Emperor pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked.

He realized that he might know too little about this young man.

This kind of explanation had never been heard of since the ancient times, which meant that it might not be the work of the Heavenly Emperor behind him!

After all, even for a Heavenly Emperor, it was not so easy to improve other people's techniques.

That would require a lot of time and energy.

Which Heavenly Emperor would be willing to waste time on other people's paths?

They were all focusing on comprehending their own paths.

"I am just a small cultivator in the mortal world, my identity is not important.

Alright, I won't talk to you anymore, I still have to find other protectors for Yu Zhu."

After Jun Wu Xie finished speaking, the Xuanyuan Emperor felt that he seemed to be cutting off contact with him.

"Wait! Little friend, wait!"

The Xuanyuan Emperor became anxious and said, "Please tell me, little friend, is Tian Jian Yi and the others' comprehension of the Heavenly Emperor's path... related to you?"

Although this idea made him feel absurd and unbelievable.

However, if the Mortal World Sword Manual was really improved by this young man, then what else was impossible?

He couldn't give up this opportunity!

The Heavenly Emperor Realm!

How many Universe Emperors throughout history had been blocked in front of the shackles of the Heavenly Emperor Realm, unable to make any further progress!

Although he had confidence in himself, that he would definitely step into the Heavenly Emperor Realm in the future.

But how long would the future be?

It would inevitably be a long time.

The Great Era waits for no one.

If he could step into the Heavenly Emperor Realm earlier, then his fate might change because of it.

"Consider it so.

Is that important?

I don't think that's important at all.

I came here to ask you to protect Yu Zhu.

It's fine if you refuse, but why do you always chat with me about other unimportant things?

I'm not talking anymore."

After Jun Wu Xie finished speaking, he directly cut off contact with the Xuanyuan Emperor.

Not important?

Not important?

He actually said it was a trivial matter?

He almost spat out a mouthful of old blood!

"Little friend!

Little friend! Are you still there?

Little friend?"

The Xuanyuan Emperor shouted many times in a row, but received no response.

He paced back and forth anxiously.

"No, this Emperor cannot give up this opportunity, this Emperor must go to the Upper Realm!"

The Xuanyuan Emperor said to himself, and then the Great Dao order around his body dissipated, and the layers of distorted void gradually stabilized, revealing his true appearance.

He was a man who looked about forty years old, with a fair face and no beard, and a relatively heroic appearance, with a head of black hair scattered and sharp eyes.

"This Emperor miscalculated, if I had known this, why put on the airs of a Universe Emperor, now I have dug a pit for myself...

That kid is not easy to deal with, this is forcing this Emperor to take the initiative to ask him.

This Emperor's lifelong reputation, it seems that it will be ruined...

Forget it, never mind, for that glimmer of hope, this Emperor doesn't need this old face...

As he spoke, he reached out and drew in the void, and a Great Dao mirror appeared.

Xuanyuan looked in the mirror, tidied up his clothes, fiddled with his hair a few times, cleared his throat, and the sharp look in his eyes gradually became gentle, and he began to rehearse in the mirror how to speak when he saw Jun Wu Xie.

Jun Wu Xie's Dao Fruit was secretly observing, and when he saw his behavior, he called him a weirdo in his heart.

This Xuanyuan really has the potential to be a treasure, he even rehearsed in the mirror, and even had a flattering expression on his face.
