Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 1249: Chapter 1249: The Great Venerable

The Eight Heavenly Emperors retreated, and Su Xuan finally felt completely at ease. The Tianshi Immortal Mansion had narrowly survived this calamity.

”Many thanks to Pavilion Master Ying Hun and Lord Feng for their invaluable assistance. It is thanks to you that our Tianshi Immortal Mansion has been saved from destruction.” Su Xuan bowed deeply in gratitude.

”Senior Su, there’s no need for thanks. This matter arose because of me, so I bear undeniable responsibility,” Feng Wuchen said with a faint shake of his head.

”Lord Feng, I fear the Eight Heavenly Emperors will not let this matter rest so easily,” Bai Hun said with a solemn expression.

”President Bai, rest assured. If we had resolved this by force today, not only would we have struggled to repel the Eight Heavenly Emperors, but they would undoubtedly launch another attack later. However, by intimidating them for the time being, they won’t dare act rashly in the short term,” Feng Wuchen said seriously.

This was precisely why Feng Wuchen used the Dragon God Clan’s might to suppress the Eight Heavenly Emperors.

”Feng Ying is right. The Eight Heavenly Emperors are wary, so they don’t dare to act recklessly,” Tianming nodded in agreement.

After a brief exchange, Feng Wuchen departed from the Tianshi Immortal Mansion with the severely injured Ying Hun.

The Eight Heavenly Emperors had already set their sights on Feng Wuchen, and he needed to quickly enhance his cultivation and fortify his strength.

Once the Heavenly Sovereign awakens from his slumber, the Eight Heavenly Emperors will act without restraint. At that time, not even the Dragon God Clan would be able to intimidate them.

”For Lord Feng to intimidate the Eight Heavenly Emperors, his identity must not be as simple as merely being a top-class assassin of the Tianying Pavilion,” Bai Hun remarked after Feng Wuchen had left.

Yang Qianxiao nodded, saying, ”To possess the abilities of a Divine Grade Artifact Refiner at such a young age, Lord Feng’s background is truly terrifying.”

”In the Heavenly Realm, there are very few existences capable of making the Eight Heavenly Emperors cautious. Perhaps only someone from the Dragon God Clan could do so. Lord Feng might indeed be one of them,” Su Xuan speculated with a furrowed brow.

”What? The Dragon God Clan?” Bai Hun and the others couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

”Elder Su’s guess is not unfounded. Even the status of a Divine Grade Artifact Refiner wouldn’t be enough to intimidate the Eight Heavenly Emperors, except, perhaps, if it were someone from the Dragon God Clan,” the Virtuous Master nodded in agreement.

”Could Lord Feng really be from the Dragon God Clan?” Bai Hun and the others were left utterly stunned.

All of them were immensely curious about Feng Wuchen’s origins. After all, anyone capable of subduing the Eight Heavenly Emperors wasn’t ordinary. Yet, no one dared to inquire directly. Moreover, at this point, it was mere speculation, and Feng Wuchen’s true identity remained unknown.

After returning to the Tianying Pavilion, Feng Wuchen immediately entered the Seventh Layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower to cultivate.

...

Tianzun Divine Palace.

The Eight Heavenly Emperors returned with injuries, their victory hollow as the mission itself had failed.

”The mission has failed?” Mr. Guigu frowned slightly.

”Mr. Guigu, there’s something I need to confirm,” the Immortal Heavenly Emperor said gravely.

”What is it?” Mr. Guigu asked.

”This matter requires the consent of the Great Elder,” the Immortal Heavenly Emperor replied.

”The Great Elder’s approval?” Mr. Guigu frowned deeply, making a guess: ”Is it about the Dragon God Clan?”

”Precisely,” Emperor Ling nodded in response.

The Eight Heavenly Emperors immediately made their way to the Great Elder’s palace within the Tianzun Divine Palace.

The Great Elder’s palace was grand and imposing, radiating an overwhelming and terrifying aura.

The palace was akin to a forbidden land—completely devoid of guards and eerily silent.

”The Eight Heavenly Emperors request an audience with the Great Elder,” the Immortal Heavenly Emperor said respectfully outside the palace.

Before the palace, the Eight Heavenly Emperors stood subserviently and respectfully.

”The Great Elder has not yet emerged from seclusion. Speak your matter to me,” an awe-inspiring voice echoed from within the palace. A young man materialized silently.

”Greetings, Supreme Master!” The Eight Heavenly Emperors bowed respectfully, their expressions tinged with apprehension.

The man before them, dressed in luxurious brocade, was the Supreme Master of the Tianzun Divine Palace. His cultivation surpassed that of the Eight Heavenly Emperors, and the terrifying aura emanating from his body unnerved them.

”The Supreme Master’s cultivation grows more terrifying by the day!” the Immortal Heavenly Emperor thought with dread, breaking into a cold sweat.

”The Supreme Master’s cultivation seems to have reached the Eighth Heavenly Emperor realm. Such terrifying power might already surpass that of the Third Elder,” the Death Heavenly Emperor speculated internally, his heart filled with terror.

Before the Supreme Master, the Eight Heavenly Emperors, who commanded awe throughout the Heavenly Realm, amounted to nothing.

”Speak quickly and do not disturb the Great Elder’s cultivation,” the Supreme Master said indifferently, his gaze sweeping over the Eight Heavenly Emperors.

That terrifying gaze was like a razor-sharp blade, piercing into the hearts of the Eight Heavenly Emperors.

The Immortal Heavenly Emperor spoke respectfully, ”Acting on Mr. Guigu’s orders, we moved to eliminate the Tianshi Immortal Mansion. However, we encountered a descendant of the Dragon God Clan. This individual possesses the power of the Heavenly Dao, and his identity is far from ordinary. We suspect there was a Dragon God Clan expert hiding in the shadows. Thus, we refrained from acting. We’ve come to request confirmation from the Great Elder regarding whether there have been any activities of the Dragon God Clan within the Nameless Ghoul Domain.”

The Supreme Master responded indifferently, ”The Nameless Ghoul Domain is completely normal. There’s been no activity.”

”No activity?” The Eight Heavenly Emperors frowned simultaneously, realizing they had been deceived by Feng Wuchen.

”Heavenly Dao’s power? Are you certain he’s from the Dragon God Clan?” the Supreme Master asked with a frown.

”Mr. Guigu has already confirmed it, stating that Feng Ying carries the aura of the Dragon God Supreme. This individual likely holds some status within the Dragon God Clan,” the Immortal Heavenly Emperor replied respectfully.

”The Dragon God Supreme?” The Supreme Master’s expression finally shifted.

The Supreme Master frowned and said, ”The Dragon God Supreme is dead. Perhaps this individual refined the Dragon God Supreme’s blood essence, thereby inheriting his aura. However, how does this person possess the power of the Heavenly Dao?”

”Supreme Master, this individual is growing at an extraordinary rate and is also a Divine Grade Artifact Refiner!” Emperor Ling added.

”Oh? A Divine Grade Artifact Refiner?” The Supreme Master cast a surprised glance at Emperor Ling.

”Supreme Master, should we eliminate this individual?” the Asura Heavenly Emperor asked respectfully.

”The Heavenly Sovereign has not yet awakened, so avoid provoking the Dragon God Clan. This ends here. Based on what you’ve described, this person’s identity is indeed extraordinary,” the Supreme Master commanded with an authoritative tone, underscoring the formidable reputation of the Dragon God Clan.

Without the Heavenly Sovereign’s order, none of them dared to provoke the Dragon God Clan.

”Understood!” The Eight Heavenly Emperors replied respectfully. Though seething with anger, they could only suppress it.

”Supreme Master, Mr. Guigu insists on eliminating the Tianshi Immortal Mansion, but Feng Ying interfered. What should we do?” the Immortal Heavenly Emperor asked for guidance.

”Wait for the Heavenly Sovereign to awaken. He has been slumbering for years, but his awakening is imminent. Dismissed.” The Supreme Master spoke before disappearing into thin air.

The Eight Heavenly Emperors swiftly departed.

”That damned brat! How dare he deceive me!” The Immortal Heavenly Emperor’s heart burned with rage.

To think that he, the leader of the Eight Heavenly Emperors, had been subdued by a mere junior filled the Immortal Heavenly Emperor with unbridled fury.

”Feng Ying, that wretched brat! I will never spare him!” the Asura Heavenly Emperor snarled menacingly.

”Without the Heavenly Sovereign’s command, it’s best not to act. The consequences aren’t something we can bear,” the Immortal Kui Heavenly Emperor cautioned.

”Are we just supposed to do nothing?” the Underworld Heavenly Emperor growled lowly, simmering with anger.

”That wretched brat has driven me insane!” the Annihilation Heavenly Emperor said, visibly frustrated.

”We can only hope the Heavenly Sovereign awakens soon so we can vent this pent-up fury!” the Underworld Heavenly Emperor said through clenched teeth, his rage palpable.

The Eight Heavenly Emperors were all consumed with anger, wishing they could tear Feng Wuchen to shreds. Yet, restrained by fear of the Dragon God Clan, they were forced to endure, a torment worse than death.
