Chapter 1541: Chapter 1492: Tu Shengzi Loses His Saint Position, The Hidden Dragon’s Fate is Divided Into Three!

[Received notice that there will be a power outage in the village at 2 PM. The clan leader has already released the second update today. As for the third update, it depends on when the electricity returns. The guaranteed update has been posted first; there might not be an update at 8 PM tonight—please bear with it!]

"As long as you surrender the Hidden Dragon Fate, this Saint Child will spare you!"

The voice, filled with a sense of pity, echoed through the starry sky, instantly unleashing a murderous intent across the heavens!

"Scoundrel!"

"You are unworthy of being called Human Saint Children!" Taihao Saint Child’s killing intent pierced straight through the starry sky.

Facing Taihao Saint Child’s furious glare, Kongxin Liu’s expression remained calm and unmoved. He said indifferently, "The process doesn’t matter. When this Saint Child ascends to the throne of Human Emperor in the future, I will naturally protect the five domains of the Human Realm, resist the Hundred Clans, and ensure the safety of the Human Bloodline. Who would care how I obtained this Fate in the beginning? If you want to blame something, blame your ill luck!"

"Some individuals consider themselves chosen because they’ve stumbled on a bit of fortune, allowing them to ascend the Saint Child’s position. Do they truly think they are the protagonists of this Vast Land? How laughable! The perspective of ants is limited to their narrow surroundings, yet they already regard it as their entire world!"

Qingqiu Yuyi’s voice also sounded, tinged with chilling disdain, circling Xiao Chen, the Purple Dragon Saint Child, and Taihao Saint Child—but noticeably ignoring any comment about the latter.

Clearly, he was mocking the three, especially Xiao Chen’s upbringing. Among all the Saint Children, Xiao Chen’s origins were the most humble, rising from the Desolate Wilds. His poor foundation was almost unbelievable. Each of the other Saint Children hailed from major powers, Imperial Blood Noble Families, or ancient legacies!

"A defeated foe dares to speak of valor!" Qingqiu Yuyi’s gaze finally returned to Taihao Saint Child.

"What!"

Instantly, his words ignited shock among the surrounding Human Warriors, especially those from the Eastern Wasteland. Taihao Saint Child had been defeated by a Saint Child from Central China—it was the first time they had heard this!

"Brother Yuyi’s words strike directly at the heart. Ants from impoverished lands think themselves destined for greatness because they’ve gained some ancestral fortune in a palm-sized region. They aspire to soar across the Nine Heavens, oblivious to the immense vastness of heaven and earth—a realm far beyond their reach."

"Ants wishing to shake the heavens, how utterly naive. Today, this Saint Child will awaken you from your unrealistic dreams—the true giant dragons are noble-born by nature!"

This time, Kongxin Liu’s words directly targeted Xiao Chen. Clearly, before arriving in the Eastern Wasteland, they had thoroughly studied the four Saint Children of the region!

At that moment, Xiao Chen’s killing intent had surged to its peak. Where did these Central China Saint Children get their overwhelming sense of superiority, as though they were the protagonists of the heavens?

What Xiao Chen didn’t yet understand was that the superiority complex of Central China toward the other regions of the Human Realm had reached an extreme degree, a notion engraved deep within their bones!

"Enough nonsense! Will you hand over the Hidden Dragon Fate or not?"

Finally, as if their patience had run dry, Kongxin Liu and Qingqiu Yuyi’s murderous intent surged like a tide, crossing the starry sky to confront Xiao Chen and the others directly.

"If you refuse a toast, you’ll drink punishment instead! Brother Yuyi, seize them and seal them in a Small World until their Hidden Dragon Fate has been completely drained. Afterward, considering they share the Human Bloodline and have resisted foreign clans, spare their lives. That would demonstrate our merciful compassion!"

It was as if sparing them was a great act of charity. In the face of the temptation of the Human Emperor’s position, no one could remain unaffected!

"Fine!" Qingqiu Yuyi’s eyes gleamed with divine light, and he immediately agreed!

Conquests between Human Saint Children were fundamentally different from battles with the inheritors of fate from foreign clans. When defeated by a fellow Human Saint Child, only a fraction—roughly a quarter, or even less—of the Hidden Dragon Fate would be taken, increasing the frequency of infighting and mutual slaughter.

However, the Central China Saint Children’s plan was exceptionally vile—they wanted to imprison all four of them and treat them as livestock, extracting portions of their Fate periodically until it was entirely drained. This was the ultimate humiliation!

Boom!

In the next instant, Taihao Saint Child’s expression changed. A peculiar look crossed his eyes as he stepped forward, placing himself in front of Xiao Chen and the other two.

Of the four Eastern Wasteland Saint Children, Taihao Saint Child bore the heaviest injuries. Even now, the energy within his body was still unstable and fluctuating!

"A defeated foe—you think you can block me!" Qingqiu Yuyi’s eyebrows furrowed as he sneered condescendingly at Taihao Saint Child.

"My Bone Sect has always existed in darkness, emerging this era for the Human Emperor’s path merely to vie for the end of the epoch. But now, I see—I was mistaken!"

"Gravely mistaken!" Taihao Saint Child shook his head lightly, his eyes filled with disdain.

"When facing foreign clan conquests, you hide in the shadows, allowing the aftermath of war to batter my Human Bloodline just to keep yourselves undiscovered. How dare you desecrate the Human Emperor’s path! I refuse to associate with the likes of you!"

The surrounding Human Warriors in the starry sky were immediately startled, their murmurs spreading rapidly. Kongxin Liu’s face darkened!

Though he had spoken without concern earlier, today’s events—if made public—would have a devastating impact on him. Avoiding combat with foreign clans already dishonored him as a Human Saint Child.

Especially given his pursuit of the Human Emperor’s path, his actions would be magnified immensely. Would the countless Humans across the Desolate Land accept a Human Emperor who refuses to fight foreign invaders?

"Rubbish! That’s just your one-sided nonsense—it counts for nothing! Stop trying to confuse the truth!" Kongxin Liu’s expression turned extremely ugly at this accusation.

"Idiot!" Xiao Chen scoffed coldly, watching Kongxin Liu’s changing expression.

"What!"

Hearing this, the Central China Saint Child Kongxin Liu was visibly shocked—a direct insult! Before he could fully react, yet another cold snort sounded!

"Idiot! The Human Fate flows vast and profound, blessing the Human Saint Children with Hidden Dragon destinies. Humans possess spirit, their clan’s Fate sees all. You might deceive the people, but you cannot hide from fate itself!"

At this moment, Xiao Chen’s killing intent began to dissolve. He realized he had overestimated the Central China Saint Children!

Perhaps all Central China Saint Children were lofty like this, or maybe it was just the two he’d encountered. A bit of cleverness, yet they were ultimately sabotaging their own paths!

"Well said—your actions are seen by your clan’s fate. Humanity’s boundless history shows unceasing retribution for crimes!" Taihao Saint Child suddenly laughed heartily!

Roar!

In the next moment, Taihao Saint Child’s Hidden Dragon Fate bellowed, its Purple Gold Hidden Dragon roaring defiantly!

"No!"

Suddenly, as if realizing what was about to occur, Xiao Chen and the other two were overwhelmed with panic!

"Hahaha, I, Taihao, hail from Bone Sect, a lineage that has always lingered in darkness. This era is an attempt to compete on the Human Emperor’s path. But now, I see this is not my road. Yet, the Eastern Wasteland’s vast fate cannot fall to Central China—I refuse to believe the martial arts of Central China are truly so impeccably supreme! At the end of this epoch, the great struggle shall arise—why shouldn’t the Eastern Wasteland surpass Central China? This glory, I entrust to the three of you!"

The Purple Gold Hidden Dragon roared, growing increasingly translucent, its brilliance engulfing Taihao Saint Child. Heavenly voices thundered, emanating from the endless Purple Gold Fate!

"Hidden Dragon Fate, disperse!"

With a deafening thunderclap, purple lightning and silver light ignited a million-mile radius across the starry sky. Taihao Saint Child’s Hidden Dragon Fate exploded entirely, forming three streams of light that landed on Xiao Chen and the other two!

This was Taihao Saint Child consciously scattering his Fate, gifting it to the three from the Eastern Wasteland!

At this moment, the Eastern Wasteland went from having four Human Saint Children to only three!

He understood that he had been struck down by the Star God Bell, suffering severe injuries. With the Central China Saint Children now attacking, he couldn’t withstand them. Rather than letting his Hidden Dragon Fate be claimed by them, he chose to aid the Eastern Wasteland Saint Children in ascending the Human Emperor’s path!

A grand resolve, a selfless sacrifice!

At this moment, across the starry sky, everyone’s eyes were filled with shock. What an incredible sacrifice—to abandon the Human Emperor’s path!

This decision surpassed the challenge of striving for the Human Emperor’s throne!

"Hahaha..." Amid the endless shadows of purple dragons, Taihao Saint Child’s laughter echoed across the heavens, filled with a sense of freedom and lack of regret!

Faced with this, the Central China Saint Children Qingqiu Yuyi and Kongxin Liu exchanged glances, their expressions darkening!

Indeed!

Every time the Saint Children of the Eastern Wasteland fought, they became the greatest adversaries for Central China. In past eras, the Eastern Wasteland frequently produced champions who entered Central China as Human Realm leaders!

This trend was exceedingly rare for the Human Realm’s other three regions. It was precisely why, although Kongxin Liu openly led the charge against the Eastern Wasteland, Qingqiu Yuyi had secretly accompanied him.

The Eastern Wasteland harbored a True Dragon structure, its energy swallowing mountains and rivers like a dragon. Every era brought contenders for the title of Humanity’s leader!

Without the augmentation of Hidden Dragon Fate, Taihao Saint Child’s vitality withered rapidly. Though his expression remained unchanged, his invisible aura had irreversibly diminished. Yet, far from despair, his gaze burned with fervent hope!

The Bone Sect, across history, had shed its blood for the Human Race, passing down their legacy through the ages. The world often said they owed the Bone Sect a Human Emperor—but if fighting for humanity meant they wouldn’t become the Human Emperor, what did it matter?

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Amid Xiao Chen’s body, where once his battle blood had lain dormant, it now boiled fervently. Taihao Saint Child’s sacrifice had shocked him profoundly, rekindling the long-lost spirit of battle.

For the first time, he revealed such intense killing intent toward his fellow Human warriors!

The world reveres Central China. Today—whether to reclaim pride or respond to Taihao Saint Child’s selfless act—this battle against the Central China Saint Children must strip them of their Saint status!

Boom!

Stepping forward, Xiao Chen faced Kongxin Liu, his gaze filled with divine light—not unlike facing the Nine Incarnations of the Light God he had fought earlier!

It was clear why people from Central China bore innate arrogance. Their very existence was their capital!

"A bloodline of meager origins—Human Emperor’s path is not yours to tread. The vast fortunes of humanity require profound blessings, and the shallow cannot hope to bear them. Today, this Saint Child shall strip you of your Fate!"

"Remember the name of this Saint Child: Kongxin Liu!"

Recalling Xiao Chen’s earlier insult, Kongxin Liu’s eyes surged with murderous intent!

Meanwhile, Taihao Saint Child had intercepted Qingqiu Yuyi!

As for the Purple Dragon Saint Child and the two Imperial Masters, they did not intervene. The battles between Saint Children are personal duels. Regardless of Xiao Chen’s victory or defeat, he would face Qingqiu Yuyi next. During the combat, other Saint Children could not interfere!

Kill!

In the next instant, deep within his pupils, a flicker of killing intent transformed into a beam of light. Rarely, Xiao Chen took the initiative to strike first—Clearly, the Central China Saint Children had entirely provoked his fury!
