Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 1031 Back

Su Qing and others finally came to the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. When they sighted the Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain Range, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They arrived safe and sound.

It was all green on the Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain Range at this time, and it was the most beautiful time of the year.

A large number of refugees from various provinces gathered at the foot of the mountain. In fact, during this period, the entire Snow Province had become the best place for the Human Clan to seek refuge within a radius of tens of thousands of miles. Under the protection of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, both the Demon Clan and the Divine Grace forces were kept in their proper places.

For humans, as long as they could get here, it meant that they were safe.

Many Human Clan sects from other provinces were included. As the news of the return of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect spread, most of the refugees were the destroyed sects and a large number of Human Clan martial artists, who could only abandon their sect to seek refuge and keep their foundation.

In the beginning, some human martial artists did evil deeds and bullied the kind among the refugees. After being severely punished by the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, the situation became much better.

Many sect martial artists and wandering martial artists were selected to form a public security team to maintain order everywhere. Otherwise, the more than 1,000 people who had just returned to the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect couldn’t manage all that by themselves.

Under the leadership of Wang Juefeng, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect opened its main gate and recruited new disciples.

Many refugees with clean slates and poor disciples were recruited into the sect, including the little orphan, Song Guang. Some of the children with good talent were directly sent to the Mountain Gate of Fortune of the Land of Divine Grace through the transmission formation. The cynical man hoped that these young people could come into contact with the real martial arts cultivation place from an early age and build up a perfect foundation.

These young people would be the hope and future of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

During this period, the entire sect was very busy.

After Ding Hao left, more than a dozen Divine Grace mercenaries attacked Snow Province one after another, but they were all defeated by the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. During this process, the strong strength displayed by the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was seen by many forces, and they were deeply shocked.

The situation in Snow Province was stabilized.

When the bridal procession returned, they were warmly welcomed.

Ding Hao’s prestige in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was incomparable, and Xie Jieyu was one of the greatest Martial Demigods in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Although many people still didn’t understand why Senior Sister Xie would become the Holy Goddess of the Immortal Phoenix Palace, it didn’t prevent the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect from admiring these two people. Even if the entire Northern Region opposed their marriage, at least the disciples of the sect would firmly stand by Ding Hao’s side.

And this was not the only happy event.

To some extent, the grand wedding ceremony of the Immortal Phoenix Palace was just a ceremony held by the palace to celebrate marrying off their Holy Goddess. The real grand wedding ceremony would be held in the mountain range of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. These days, the whole sect had been busy preparing for the grand wedding.

The whole mountain gate was full of joy.

The wedding invitations had been sent more than half a month ago. Some famous people and large sects in the Northern Region had been invited by the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. The number of experts who came to Snow Province these days was not small. They came for congratulations.

On the mountain gate of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, a VIP area was opened up to receive martial artists from all over the world.

From all aspects of signs, it was not just a wedding.

The leaders of various forces, sects, and aristocratic families gathered in the mountain range of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. In addition to congratulations, they obviously wanted to take this opportunity to talk about the fight against the invaders of the Land of Divine Grace. The situation became more and more severe, which made more and more people realize that a loose resistance was destined to be destroyed. Only when the entire Northern Region was united could they have a chance of survival.

There hadn’t been any good opportunity for everyone to gather together before, and this wedding was a great chance.

It was less than five days before the wedding celebration held by the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

The appearance of Su Qing, Xie Jieyu, and others attracted everyone’s attention.

“What? Senior Brother Ding didn’t come back with you?” When he heard Su Qing’s words, Wang Juefeng felt a bit numb by his scalp. It was very dangerous for one to fight with Prince Primeval on the battlefield above the Highest Heaven. Although he was very confident about Ding Hao, he had also heard of the valiant battle record of Prince Primeval, who was extremely powerful like a devil.

“He will come back,” Xie Jieyu said firmly.

Wang Juefeng nodded.

The battlefield above the Highest Heaven was extremely vast. Except for the people involved, no one could find them. For now, they could only wait.

When the experts from other big sects and forces heard the news, they were also stunned. They didn’t expect that Ding Hao would go to the duel. Moreover, his opponent was the extremely powerful Prince Primeval. This was too unexpected.

They could only wait.

As soon as the news got out, countless people were guessing the result of this battle.

When Prince Primeval was in Life-and-Death Arena, he didn’t go out to fight. Later, the news spread that he was not afraid to fight, but the Demon Gods of the Northern Region left a decree that he was not allowed to go out to fight. Now that the prince had appeared to challenge Ding Hao, he should be recognized by the Demon Gods of the Northern Region.

In other words, perhaps the Demon Gods felt that the current Prince Primeval could defeat Ding Hao.

What would happen when the most powerful geniuses in the history of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan in the Northern Region fought with each other?

Some people couldn’t wait any longer and wanted to go to the battlefield above the Highest Heaven to witness the results.

Time passed by.

There were all kinds of news constantly coming.

Very few people could actually enter the battlefield above the Highest Heaven. Some Royal-level and Saint-level experts could barely get close to the Highest Heaven, and they could vaguely feel powerful energy fluctuations coming from it.

A day had passed.

Two days had passed.

Three days passed.

Until the night of the fourth day, Ding Hao had not returned.

There were already some bad rumors spreading. Some people thought that Ding Hao might have been defeated and died. After such a long time, according to Ding Hao’s previous achievements, he would end his fights as soon as possible and had very few such long-lasting battles. Some people considered that Ding Hao’s explosiveness was stronger. If he could not defeat his opponent in a short time, he might not be able to hold on for long.

The Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain Range was filled with a tense atmosphere.

Wang Juefeng was a little nervous, but he didn’t show it too much. Instead, he ordered the disciples of the sect to make arrangements according to the original plan to prepare for the wedding the next day.

However, the Martial Demigoddess, Xie Jieyu, was extremely calm.

“Brother Hao will definitely come back.” With a smile on her face, she was full of confidence.

Time passed slowly under all kinds of speculations.

There was only one night before the wedding.

The night became extremely long.

The gate of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was brightly lit and no one slept. Almost everyone raised their heads to look up at the sky, at the stars, and at the shining Milky Way. Maybe some ethereal starlights in it were the energy storm caused by the confrontation between Ding Hao and Prince Primeval.

Under the anticipation and speculation of countless people, the long darkness finally faded away slowly.

On the eastern horizon of the Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain Range, the morning light was revealed. At the coldest time of the morning, there were dewdrops on the grass and trees, and everything was quiet.

There were a lot of people in the Swordsmanship-seeking Square.

The red wedding cloth was placed everywhere.

The cool wind blew over the mountain range while everyone was feeling nervous.

In the blink of an eye, half of the red sun had come out from behind the distant mountain peak.

If Ding Hao didn’t get back to the wedding, it would mean that he was in great danger. Some people worried that he would be distracted by this event and suffer a crushing defeat at the last moment of the battle.

Everyone looked up at the sky.

Among the ordinary disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, someone clenched his fists tightly and muttered in a low voice, “He can’t be in danger, can he?”

“What nonsense are you talking about? Great Martial Uncle Ding Hao is invincible.” Ah Jin was also among the crowd. After going through the three battles in the Life-and-Death Arena on the shore of Mirror Lake, he was personally invited by Ding Hao to join the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. His strength increased rapidly. This time, he was also among the thousands who returned to Snow Province with Ding Hao.

He totally worshipped Ding Hao.

In his heart, Ding Hao was an omnipotent War God and could never be defeated.

But as the sun slowly rose from the horizon, a new day finally came, but Ding Hao was still nowhere to be seen. More and more people began to worry.

Wang Juefeng’s hands were full of sweat.

He had complained many times in his heart. Ding Hao was too reckless with his decision this time by going to the duel alone. What if the Demon God Palace had set a trap for him? Unfortunately, they couldn’t do anything now. Fang Tianyi had rushed to the battlefield above the Highest Heaven several times, but he couldn’t find Ding Hao.

“Can it be that Ding Hao is dead?”

Some masters of some sects had already made their judgment, and some even got up to leave.

Everyone looked terrible. If Ding Hao did have died in this battle, the impact would be too horrible. This was not only about the destruction of a martial arts legend of the Human Clan but also about the outcome of the war between the Human Clan of the Northern Region and the invaders of the Land of Divine Grace.

“Elder Wang, something has come up in my sect. I can’t stay here any longer, so I’ll leave first.”

“Haha, I suddenly remembered that there are still some mundane things that haven’t been dealt with. Elder Wang Juefeng, I’ll take my leave first!”

“Just now, I received urgent news from the sect that some Divine Grace mercenaries have invaded our mountain gate. I need to rush back to support my sect.”

Some people were very realistic and directly got up to leave. They didn’t wait for the wedding to begin.

Wang Juefeng raised his eyebrows and was about to curse. In the past, he was known as the Young Poison Master. He was not good at using poison, but he was so vicious that he could scold people to death. At this time, he would not show respect to these fence-sitters.

But the Martial Demigoddess, Xie Jieyu, just sneered disdainfully. She then raised her hand and said, “See the guests out.”

Her status was special, so Wang Juefeng held back his anger.

Looking at the extremely beautiful Martial Demigoddess, those sect leaders and experts who got up to leave felt sorry for her. “Such a peerlessly beautiful Martial Demigoddess is suffering such a fate. Will she lose her husband on her wedding day and become a widow?”

Someone sneered and turned to leave.

But right at this moment…

Swoosh!

A stream of red flame suddenly cut through the sky and fell straight toward the mountain range of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

The flowing light was like a falling meteor, piercing through the sky. With raging flames, it left a long flame mark in the sky.

“That is…” Everyone was shocked.

A bright smile appeared on the Martial Demigoddess’s face. “He’s back.”

Fang Tianyi and Zhang Fan also showed excitement on their faces.

The meteor-like pillar of fire fell straight down with unparalleled momentum. It was as if the whole Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain Range would be flattened. Everyone felt great pressure. This kind of momentum was like the arrival of an emperor and was irresistible.

However, when it was still a kilometer away from the top of the mountain, the column of fire solidified.

In an instant, all the flames dissipated and turned into a human figure.

His green shirt was like jade, and his black hair was like a waterfall.

The morning sun in the east sprinkled the fiery red light on him. He looked as if covered with a layer of red armor. His long black hair fluttered in the wind. This extremely handsome man was not any other but Ding Hao, the Saber and Sword Addict.
