My wife is a Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox
Chapter 232: The Supreme God

Chapter 232: Chapter 232: The Supreme God

Wu Xia slightly lifted his body and looked at the golden light shining down from above.

This gentle golden light, after falling upon Emperor Qing and Fan Ruoruo, transformed their souls, that had been emitting a black aura, into souls emitting a silver essence.

Emperor Qing’s face was still the same, yet the malicious air was gone, replaced by kindness and gentleness.

Wu Xia’s gaze was profound as he met with the true Emperor Qing, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

This was the real supreme deity!

That was the legendary figure, and now he was standing before him with such benevolence—something he was witnessing with his own eyes.

The white-flecked hair, the tender gaze, it was like looking at his own grandfather.

"Young man, thank you!"

Emperor Qing slowly spoke, his voice quivering slightly, yet powerful.

"Emperor Qing!"

Wu Xia immediately bowed in respect.

"There’s no need for such formalities," Emperor Qing said softly, "It is I who should be bowing to you!"

"Don’t!"

Wu Xia quickly interjected, stopping Emperor Qing from bowing.

At this moment, Fan Ruoruo also came back to her senses, her eyes teary as she looked at the old man before her, "Grandfather!"

"Eh!"

Emperor Qing’s eyes also grew moist as he softly looked at Fan Ruoruo, "I never thought I’d see my descendants in my lifetime."

"Ruoruo, it’s Grandfather’s fault, I passed on the bad essence to you, affecting you," he said.

"Grandfather, I am your bloodline, I should endure these trials!" Fan Ruoruo stated firmly, her eyes filled with passion.

Wu Xia did not interrupt this long-awaited reunion, quietly standing aside.

Fan Ruoruo didn’t say much to Emperor Qing and then turned around to kneel before Wu Xia.

"Mr. Wu, thank you!"

Wu Xia shuddered. He knew that Fan Ruoruo had dual souls within her, which caused her to sometimes act aloof, sometimes evil.

He quickly stepped forward to lift Fan Ruoruo to her feet. "Elder Fan, please don’t do this, I also bear fault!"

Wu Xia felt a silent relief that he hadn’t struck down Fan Ruoruo earlier; otherwise, he would have committed a grave error.

"Emperor Qing, what exactly is going on here?" Wu Xia didn’t waste words and quickly shifted the topic. "Are the Four Great Divine Beasts here?"

"Young man, don’t worry. I roughly understand your situation," Emperor Qing slowly began, "Let me explain it to you."

"Mm."

Wu Xia nodded and without much hesitation, sat down cross-legged, waiting for Emperor Qing to tell his tale.

"This is how things are!"

Emperor Qing began slowly, telling Wu Xia and Fan Ruoruo the background of past events.

It turned out that due to global conflict, Emperor Qing, in his determination to protect Qing Country, resorted to a dangerous path by cultivating a breakthrough Cultivation Technique, which led him to become demonically possessed and develop a dual personality.

Initially, Emperor Qing could still control his inner self, but as time went on, prolonged killing and the growth of power allowed his malicious side to gradually seep into his soul and start contesting the benevolent Emperor Qing for control of the body.

After the battles ended, Emperor Qing, not wanting to harm the world,

joined forces with the Four Great Divine Beasts to seal himself here.

He even destroyed his own body, unwilling to let his dark soul escape and bring calamity to the world.

But all was in vain, as it only resulted in both souls breaking free from the confines of the body.

So, for all these years, Emperor Qing had been uniting with the Four Great Divine Beasts to combat this evil soul.

The two were considered as one, but they had long ceased to be the same person.

"Originally, we managed to maintain a stand-off, but for some reason, recently, the evil me seemed to sense some kind of call, becoming extraordinarily active. Its strength surged dramatically, even capable of making contact with the outside world!"

Emperor Qing said gravely, "Especially after the revival of Spiritual Energy two days ago, it went completely insane, as if welcoming a new world, celebrating its impending ascension."

"Hmm?" Wu Xia’s eyebrows knit tightly together. He knew about the consequences of the revival of Spiritual Energy, but before this, there hadn’t been anything significant in this world, had there?

Especially what the Dark Emperor had just said concerning himself, it gave Wu Xia an ominous premonition deep in his heart.

But he couldn’t pinpoint what it exactly was.

"Emperor Qing, can you remember approximately when this started?"

Wu Xia asked solemnly.

"Roughly half a year ago, toward the end of June, when the weather started to become hot!"

Emperor Qing contemplated before speaking, "At that time, I thought it was due to the weather, but later on, I always felt something was not right; he would always be muttering to himself, as if making deals with someone."

"However, within this restricted area, not a trace of external presence could penetrate."

"Thus, we are still in the dark about it, until he tried to lure you here; we could then confirm that this matter must be related to you!"

"Hmm!" Wu Xia’s expression grew serious.

At first, he suspected it was the Painting Spirit in the scroll that was causing mischief, but it appeared not to be the case now.

Aside from the Painting Spirit, no other family possessed that kind of strength.

And now, almost all the powerful beings had been wiped out by himself.

There could be no other existence surpassing Emperor Qing in this world except for himself.

Wu Xia then thought of another individual.

That was his guide, Yaoji, who always called him husband and silently devoted herself for the sake of his growth, protecting the women around him.

But Wu Xia quickly dismissed that thought.

He absolutely trusted Yaoji, and since she had been within his body the entire time without leaving, it was impossible for her to do such a thing.

Wu Xia had unconditional trust in Yaoji.

However, apart from Yaoji, there were no other masters by his side, right?

"It seems that, apart from Yaoji, there must be another supreme entity from the Upper Realm hidden in this world."

Wu Xia said in a deep voice, "Emperor Qing, you don’t have to worry. After I return, I will make sure to find out what is going on and prevent any crisis from happening!"

"Hmm!" Emperor Qing nodded and continued, "Little Wu, you have come for the Vermilion Bird Essence Blood, but it’s not something you can just obtain whenever you wish!"

"The Azure Dragon has long harbored admiration for the Vermilion Bird; despite its courtship for many years, Vermilion Bird never relented, which you can imagine demonstrates the difficulty involved!"

"Ah?" Wu Xia’s eyes widened, his brain seeming to crash as he stuttered, "Essence Blood can be obtained through mating?"

"Hmm!" Emperor Qing nodded, "The Vermilion Bird is known as the Phoenix that is reborn from the flames, so it must shed its Essence Blood during the peak of its fiery bath!"

"Now that the matter of you seeking the Vermilion Bird Essence Blood is known to all the Divine Beasts by the doing of my dark self, the Azure Dragon and White Tiger are very hostile towards you."

"Therefore, before you can win over the heart of the Vermilion Bird, you’ll need to deal with the Azure Dragon and White Tiger first."

Boom!

Wu Xia’s head buzzed loudly.

He hadn’t imagined obtaining Essence Blood would be this complicated, not only having to mate with the Vermilion Bird but also having to combat the Azure Dragon and White Tiger.

But for the sake of Lin Jiao’s life, Wu Xia had no other choice.

"Emperor Qing, thank you for telling me all this. I’ll take care of the following matters myself!"

"I won’t disturb you and your grandchild’s reunion any longer. Farewell!"
