Chapter 283 Qiu Wanzai
Women are deceitful, especially beautiful women.
Twenty years ago, there were still dozens of Martial Emperor masters in the Wild Continent, ranging from the second to the ninth level.
But overnight, only the nine weakest first-level Martial Emperors were left.
What about the other Martial Emperors?
The Empress was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Only nine first-level Martial Emperors survived. This was a deliberate act of the late Emperor. As long as there's even one second-level Martial Emperor alive, eight, not ten, would be needed to remove the Qiankun Cauldron that's suppressing the passage to the Origin Continent!"
"Therefore, according to the late emperor's calculations, he did not want the Qiankun Ding to be opened. There was only one way, and that was to leave only nine first-level Martial Emperors."
"As for the other Martial Emperors, they were all killed by the late Emperor. Their flesh and blood were used to fill the Qiankun Cauldron. Their Martial Emperor Qi was used as the spiritual power to operate the Qiankun Cauldron and suppress the passage!"
"hiss--"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the civil and military officials present gasped.
“No wonder most of the Martial Emperors suddenly disappeared overnight twenty years ago!”
"It was actually done by the late emperor!"
"In the past, each of the ten major sects of our Daqian Dynasty was led by a Martial Emperor master. Now, they were all killed by the late emperor!"
"The late emperor was truly cruel!"
No one was not surprised.
Xue Jian's expression changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "So, my missing master was also killed by him?"
The Snow Sword Sect originally had two Martial Emperors.
One is Xue Jian, and the other is her master, who is a master at the peak of Martial Emperor level!
But overnight, it disappeared without a trace, as if it had evaporated from the face of the earth!
Only now did she know the truth!
The Empress nodded indifferently: "You are very lucky. Although you are also a Martial Emperor, in the eyes of the late Emperor, you are too weak. If you break through to the second level of Martial Emperor, you will surely die!"
"Before the late emperor passed away, he used a supreme forbidden technique to forcibly plunder all the source energy in our world. Without the source energy, the Martial Emperor cannot break through to the next level. Similarly, without the source energy, the Martial King cannot break through to the Martial Emperor. All of this was part of his calculations."
Hearing this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but touch his chin, and his brows couldn't help but frown.
"Why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen? Is there something wrong with the brain of this old emperor who has passed away?"
Upon hearing this, everyone else immediately looked at Chen Xuan.
A loyal old minister wanted to speak up and angrily denounce Chen Xuan, saying that it was simply treasonous and that he dared to disrespect the late emperor in such a way?
But these people swallowed the words back when they were on the tip of their tongues.
There was no way, Chen Xuan was too cruel, he could kill one person with one slap.
Didn’t you see that he even slapped his own people into pieces?
If anyone among them dares to scold, he is looking for death!
When you are strong enough, even those who dislike you will have to shut up in front of you!
"Don't look at me like that one by one. Don't you find it weird?"
Chen Xuan shrugged and said slowly,
"At first, I thought the old emperor cut off the passage to the Origin Continent because he was a good man and couldn't bear to see our Martial Emperor of the Desolate Continent being sold into slavery after going there."
"I thought he was a good man, but now the Empress tells me that he killed all the other Martial Emperors, leaving only nine first-level Martial Emperors."
"Since he was doing this for the good of the other Martial Emperors, why did he kill the other Martial Emperor masters?"
"Also, Empress, you said that the envoys from the Origin Continent would sell our Martial Emperor. That's just your one-sided statement. Who knows if it's true or not?"
“So, there’s some illogicality here, right?”
Having said that, Chen Xuan's eyes flashed as he looked at the empress.
The empress frowned, took a deep breath, and said seriously, "What you said makes a lot of sense. In fact, for so many years, I have never understood why the late emperor did this."
"There must be some unspeakable secret in this!"
"But in our world, it's impossible to know the truth. If you want to find the truth, there's only one way. That's for the three of us to join forces, find the other seven Martial Emperors, move the Qiankun Cauldron, and continue on the path to becoming an emperor!"
Hearing this, Chen Xuan fell silent.
After a moment, he turned his head and looked at Xue Jian, "Beautiful Sect Leader, what do you think?"
If anyone dared to call him that, Xue Jian would chop off his head with one blow.
But when Chen Xuan said this, Xue Jian just frowned slightly, and after a moment of silence, he snorted coldly:
"Humph, on what grounds did the old emperor block our path to the Origin Continent?"
"A Martial Emperor master can only live for about 200 years. After 200 years, you and I will return to dust. Who can accept that?"
"Only by becoming a saint or an emperor can one live for thousands of years!"
"I must go to this Origin Continent!"
She is an ambitious woman, and the small Snow Sword Sect has made her feel empty and lonely for too many years!
This world cannot trap her, she must venture into a bigger world!
"Humph, it's only because the old emperor is dead. Otherwise, I will definitely avenge my master in the future!"
"If he hadn't killed my master, he might have achieved Martial Honor and made a name for himself in the Origin Continent. And I wouldn't have wasted twenty years without making any progress!"
When mentioning the old emperor, Xue Jian gritted his teeth secretly.
She always felt that the old emperor's actions back then were selfish and disgusting!
"Where is the passage to the Origin Continent?"
Xue Jian looked at the empress.
The Empress said calmly, "It's at the end of the East China Sea. It's useless for you to go there now. In this world, I'm the only one who can find the entrance. If you want to go there, you must find the other seven Martial Emperors!"
The other seven Martial Emperors were Emperor Tang of the Tang Dynasty, who was also Li Xiuning’s father.
There is also the Tsar of the Shah Kingdom, the Emperor Di of the Di Kingdom, the mysterious Poison Emperor deep in the Ten Thousand Mountains, and a Medical Emperor who claims to be able to bring the dead back to life.
There are two others. One is the mysterious Ghost King. It is said that this person is not a living person, but a powerful evil spirit who has achieved success in cultivation.
The last one is even more mysterious. There are very few rumors about him. Even whether he is still alive is a question. He is known as the "Bone Emperor".
The reason for this name is that people who have seen him can only describe his appearance in two words - bones!
"Then go find these seven people!"
Xue Jian couldn't wait to speak.
"Oh, you think it's that easy? If you go find them, they will definitely agree to let you move the Qiankun Cauldron?"
The empress suddenly sneered with a hint of sarcasm.
