The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 776 - 773 Day 10

Chapter 776: Chapter 773 Day 10

"Double Emperor Mountain’s Ao Rulong pays his respects to all fellow Daoists," Ao Rulong said.

Though his name carried the word ’pride,’ Ao Rulong seemed to lack arrogance; in fact, he appeared quite polite. He clasped his fists and bowed with a smile on his face.

"We pay our respects to you, fellow Daoist."

The numerous Elders and Supreme Elders of the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect did not dare to take the matter lightly and all responded with greetings.

"Did you come here alone, Daoist friend?" Qi Tianyu first offered him a seat and then asked.

Ao Rulong took his seat. Hearing Qi Tianyu’s question, he replied calmly, "I am the forerunner; my fellow Daoists from Double Emperor Mountain will arrive tomorrow."

Hearing this, everyone sighed inwardly with relief; finally, they had some support.

With the aid of Double Emperor Mountain, they felt much more at ease.

Fist Venerate Ao Rulong, with such strength, was on par with the likes of the old monster Blood Flame Ancestor and Dai Jinhai from Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect!

"With the help of fellow Daoists from Double Emperor Mountain, our Sect will surely claim a complete victory tomorrow!" Qi Tianyu did not skimp on his praise either.

After all, he was a friend who had come to their aid, and no matter for what reason, it was necessary to speak well of him.

Ao Rulong waved his hands gently and said, "I have already seen it upon entering your esteemed sect; that Revenge Talisman is most likely genuine. The battle tomorrow is not easy to predict."

Those words immediately caused everyone’s hearts to sink.

Blood Flame Ancestor could not help frowning as he said, "Daoist friend, based on the events that happened ninety thousand years ago, it seems that the Revenge Lineage bore a grudge against Double Emperors. After the Double Emperors ascended to their pinnacle, there was a battle. Is the Revenge Lineage truly still so formidable?"

All eyes were focused on Ao Rulong.

As the talons of the Double Emperors, Double Emperor Mountain surely knew more secrets.

With a faint smile, Ao Rulong said, "Everyone knows the saying, ’A starving camel is still bigger than a horse.’"

"Many of the current overlord forces in the world, which one of them wasn’t an existence that once dominated all realms? Even though they are now in decline, they can still dominate an entire domain, and that’s the reason behind it."

"Just like your esteemed sect, wasn’t it also an era millions of years ago?" Ao Rulong said with a smile.

Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect, also a Great Emperor Immortal Sect, had once shined for an era, but now that’s all old and irrelevant news.

However, today’s Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect can still claim the title of overlord in the East Desolate because of the profound foundation it built back then.

In fact, many Great Emperor Immortal Sects are the same.

Perhaps they are no longer as glorious as in the past, but they can still dominate their respective domains.

This is what is meant by ’a starving camel is still bigger than a horse.’

Regarding the Revenge Lineage, although little is known about them, the fact that this mysterious force was once able to battle the ascended Double Emperors speaks volumes.

Ao Rulong’s words cast a silence over the great hall.

Originally, everyone thought that Ao Rulong’s arrival meant that Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect had finally gained the capital to fight.

But now, it was as if they had been doused with cold water.

"Fellow Daoists should not be discouraged. Since ninety thousand years ago when the Double Emperors ascended to their zenith, the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds have been in the Double Emperors’ era. The Revenge Lineage, in the times that have passed, has committed multiple acts of exterminating sects, which are utterly unconscionable," Ao Rulong said, trying to lift their spirits.

"Such arrogance will surely lead to their destruction!"

Seeing the spirits of his comrades low, Ao Rulong spoke out to encourage them.

"That’s right! Our Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect has never provoked this Revenge Lineage, yet they seek to destroy our Sect. Their arrogance has reached the peak. We stand for justice, will not yield, and justice will prevail!" an Elder passionately declared.

These words ignited the zeal of many, rekindling their confidence.

However, the true top echelons were deeply worried.

All this talk of inevitable justice was false...

Because the winner is deemed just.

In the eyes of every major power in this world, who could claim that their hands were without a few innocent lives?

To those few innocent lives, they were the true sinners.

So-called stance is merely the differing actions taken by people in different positions.

Nothing more!

But no matter what, they had to go all out in battle tomorrow.

...

Time slowly passed.

As dawn broke, the attention of all major powers in the East Desolate was concentrated on Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect.

Even in the other Great Domains of Daozhou, a few Great Emperor Immortal Sects were paying attention to this affair.

The turmoil of today might not be any less intense than the incident of Emperor Immortal Sect ninety thousand years ago.

On this day, the disciples of the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect got up exceptionally early.

The atmosphere had become oppressively tense.

Perhaps it had something to do with the weather.

For some reason, the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect, which usually basked in the bright sunshine, saw not a single ray today; the sky dome was covered with dense clouds, adding to the already suffocating mood.

An existence at the level of a Hall Master, upon witnessing this scene, felt displeased and directly used Great Divine Power to disperse the clouds, exposing the sun.

However, it wasn’t long before the clouds gathered again, even denser than before.

That Hall Master prepared to act once more but was stopped by an Elder, who said, "It’s just a Heavenly Phenomenon, nothing more. The Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect doesn’t believe in these things!"

This reassured those disciples who were feeling uneasy.

Early in the morning, the other reinforcements from Double Emperor Mountain had also arrived, sending no less than six Supreme Elders and two ancestors, both of whom were no weaker than Fist Venerate Ao Rulong.

This boosted the confidence of the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect considerably.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, a continent is flying towards our sect from the direction of the West Coast Sea!"

A disciple came forward to report.

"A continent?!"

Everyone in the hall was bewildered.

What was going on?

"According to the reports, this continent flew out from the east of the East Desolate, and it hasn’t shown any signs of stopping, so it might just be passing by," the disciple continued.

"Continue investigating," Qi Tianyu waved his hand.

"I shall heed the Sect Master’s command!" The disciple bowed and withdrew from the great hall.

"Is it really just passing by?" an Elder asked with a frown.

"Even if it were passing by, is it such a coincidence, to pass by today of all days?" another Elder said with a cold voice.

"Sect Master, let me shatter that continent to defend the dignity of our sect!" An Elder directly volunteered.

Qi Tianyu slightly raised an eyebrow, his gaze shifting to the people of Double Emperor Mountain like Ao Rulong, speaking slowly, "I wonder how the three seniors view this matter?"

Ao Rulong shook his head slightly, "Sect Master Qi, we came to assist your sect, but such matters are better decided by you."

The other two ancient beings from Double Emperor Mountain kept silent, implicitly agreeing with what Ao Rulong had said.

The other six Supreme Elders naturally didn’t say anything.

Qi Tianyu, upon hearing this, did not respond. He knew these people from Double Emperor Mountain were testing his ability to handle matters and his style.

With this in mind, Qi Tianyu’s face regained its usual indifference as he waved his hand, "Elder Huang, you and Elder Liu go together to shatter that continent and uphold the honor of our sect!"

"I shall heed the Sect Master’s command!"

The Elder who had just volunteered, along with another, stepped forward and quickly left, striding across the sky with decisive actions.

Ao Rulong inwardly nodded upon seeing this.

Although the current situation didn’t allow for complications, the more pressing the times, the more it was necessary to demonstrate the authority and might of a ruler.

This was also for others to see.

Even if the great hall was about to fall, it was still a great hall!

"Reporting to the Sect Master, mysterious Coffin Carriers have appeared from the direction of the Mo family, a total of eight people with two coffins!" Another disciple came to report.

"Coffin Carriers?" Everyone was startled.

Qi Tianyu was also taken aback for a moment before waving his hand, "Pay them no mind."

The Coffin Carriers, he was aware of them, were a mysterious lineage that seldom appeared before people. Their appearance this time was rather odd, but it was not something to be concerned about.

According to the ancient records, the people of the Coffin Carrying lineage never meddled in the disputes of the jianghu.

"Wait," Ao Rulong stopped the disciple and asked, "Which two coffins are they?"

Everyone looked at Ao Rulong in confusion, wondering why he would suddenly ask about the coffins.

Though puzzled, the disciple answered truthfully, "One is entirely black with Sword Intent swirling around it, and the other is made of rotting wood and appears quite ordinary."

"Fellow Daoist, why do you ask about this?" the old ancestor Blood Flame inquired.

Ao Rulong’s expression was somber as he exchanged glances with the two ancestors from Double Emperor Mountain, both detecting the shock in each other’s eyes.

"Leave aside the Sword Coffin, but the rotting wood coffin is probably heading towards this Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect!"

Ao Rulong spoke solemnly.

"What does this mean?" Blood Flame, the old ancestor, asked.

"The rotting wood coffin... This coffin is not for burying, but its appearance foretells the death of many. Should the deaths be few, the Coffin Carriers themselves will take action to officiate the funerals," Ao Rulong said somberly.

"What?!"

Inside the great hall, everyone was shocked.
