Chapter 1848: Sudden Turn of Events, Beauty As Attendant

He perhaps wouldn’t be as afraid if it was an ordinary Emperor, but if it was an Emperor from the Jintian Clan, it was another story.

“Elder, please spare our lives!”

The Imperial Kong Clan experts who came with Kong Yu also dropped to the ground in fear and begged for mercy with trembling voices.

There was utter silence elsewhere on the huge ship.

Complicated emotions swirled in the hearts of Liang Chuan and the others. They also had an Emperor in Heavenly Sound Pavilion, but obviously, he could not be compared with Sword Emperor Brave Gale.

Otherwise, how could a mere Kong Yu push them to such a state?

“Little friend, whether these people live or die is your call.” Suddenly, Sword Emperor Brave Gale turned his gaze towards Lin Xun who was standing among the crowd and his voice became much softer.

Only then did people notice that Yu Xuan, who had been starting endless storms on the ship, was actually present.

All eyes landed on him.

After a moment of silence, Lin Xun said aloud, “Elder, it’s up to you.”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale nodded.

“The two who attacked me before, unforgivable!”

A glance at the white-robed middle-aged man and green-robed old man who were pinned to the ground was enough to send their souls scattering in fright. They could not care about anything else and begged for mercy.

At this moment, Sword Emperor Brave Gale was too lazy to say anything and just flicked his sleeve.

Rumble!

Terrifying power of the Emperor Stage spread outwards from him.

Before the white-robed middle-aged man and green-robed old man could even defend themselves, they were reduced to ashes and both their bodies and spirits were obliterated!

Gasps rang out.

For most of the present cultivators, the quasi-Emperor Stage was already an existence that they could only look up to, but before an Emperor, quasi-Emperors were just insignificant characters that could be wiped out with a snap of the finger.

This was the difference between them; however high the mountain was, there would always be another higher!

Sword Emperor Brave Gale then shot a look at Kong Yu and the others and spat out, “Get lost!”

Kong Yu, who was kneeling on the ground, was already terrified out of his wits, teeth chattering uncontrollably. Upon hearing those words, his face was alight with wild joy and gratitude.

“Thank you Elder, thank you Elder!”

He kowtowed repeatedly, then sprang to his feet and scurried back onto the five-colored ship with his tail between his legs along with the other Imperial Kong Clan experts!

All the cultivators who witnessed the scene were flabbergasted.

Meanwhile, Liang Chuan and others who had managed to escape death had dazed looks on their faces as if they were dreaming.

The sudden storm came to an end.

Before long, Whirlwind Ship resumed sailing the starry sky.

……

On the five-colored ship.

It was not until Kong Yu was far away that he gradually recovered from the state of terror and despair and his face darkened.

“Kong Lin, I want an explanation!” Kong Yu’s voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, loaded with endless anger and hatred.

Kong Lin lost control of his limbs and dropped to his knees, wailing, “Young Master, I did not know that Sword Emperor Brave Gale would actually interfere in this matter. Logically speaking, even an Emperor would give face to our Imperial Kong Clan and Primordial Dao Court, for fear of bringing trouble upon themselves.”

“Logically speaking?”

Kong Yu was so furious that his eyes almost spit fire and his hair bristled. “Don’t you know that no Emperors in the Ancient Nebula Road are reasonable and logical?”

Bang!

He lashed out with a kick at Kong Lin, sending him flying backwards and slamming into the wall of the hall.

A groan of pain escaped his lips.

At this moment, Kong Yu’s anger and hatred seemed to be completely set off. He sped forward like a madman and violently beat up Kong Lin.

“Do you know that you almost caused my death?! I have never seen someone as stupid as you!”

Finally, following a dull thud, Kong Lin took his last breath. He had been beaten to death, his body mangled and covered in blood.

Kong Yu’s face was ferocious and sinister as if he had not fully expelled his anger. He spat out fiercely and cursed, “Trash, all of you are trash!”

This setback was too great of a blow to him.

“Young Master, should we need to return to the clan to ask for reinforcements?” An old servant quietly appeared.

“No!” Kong Yu refused without hesitation and his face turned gloomy. “Would you believe it if I told you that I would only be laughed at and mocked by the clan if I returned after suffering such a great humiliation?”

The old servant kept quiet.

Kong Yu drew a deep breath and said in an ice-cold voice, “Sword Emperor Brave Gale is right. Even if I was killed then, the clan would not want to sour their relationship with Sword Emperor Brave Gale for the sake of me!”

Feelings of hatred and helplessness suffocated his chest.

Ultimately, Sword Emperor Brave Gale was too powerful.

“Let’s head to the Great Primordial Chaos World!”

After making the decision, Kong Yu said through gritted teeth, “I can’t do anything to Sword Emperor Brave Gale, and I dare not provoke Yu Xuan, but that guy has killed people from the Primordial Dao Court. I believe that the Primordial Dao Court will show interest in this matter!”

The old servant nodded silently.

……

Meanwhile, on Whirlwind Ship.

“Elder, thank you for helping me out this time.”

In a beautiful courtyard adorned with streams, waterfalls, lush green pines and cypresses, Lin Xun and Sword Emperor Brave Gale sat opposite each other across a stone table, drinking tea and chatting.

Sword Emperor Brave Gale smiled. “It’s just a trivial matter. Little Friend, believe it or not, Kong Yu would not dare to mention this matter to his clansmen when he returns.”

Lin Xun raised his brows and asked calmly, “Why is that?”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale explained with a smile, “Ancient imperial clans like the Kong Clan have no lack of talented youngsters like Kong Yu. If the Kong Clan found out that Kong Yu infuriated me, they would definitely punish him severely. This is not because they don’t dare to offend me, but instead they don’t want to anger me because of a little insignificant character.”

“A little insignificant character…”

Lin Xun sighed to himself. Kong Yu was a supreme Saint-King, but to Sword Emperor Brave Gale, he was just a nobody.

“I didn’t kill him because besides being a descendant of the Kong Clan, he is also a true disciple of Primordial Dao Court.”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale continued, “Among the Great Six Courts, only Primordial Dao Court would defend someone despite knowing that they are in the wrong. If Kong Yu dies, the Primordial Dao Court might not dare to do anything to me, but they will direct all their hatred onto you, little friend.”

Lin Xun shook his head. “I have already killed so many people from Primordial Dao Court. An enmity has long been forged between us, so I am not bothered by this.”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale looked at him speechlessly then he nodded. “It seems like what I did was unnecessary.”

The two chatted for a while longer and before Sword Emperor Brave Gale left, he asked bluntly, “Little Friend, would you, out of respect for me, let Xuanyue follow you to cultivate for a period?”

As expected, the real reason why Sword Emperor Brave Gale took action this time was likely because of this matter.

Moreover, Lin Xun had to return the favor.

Helpless, he asked, “Elder, dare I ask why you want to do this?”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale thought for a moment before he answered in a serious tone, “It’s very simple. To seek opportunities for Xuanyue. She has no lack of cultivation resources and cultivation arts, but what she lacks is opportunities to hone herself in the real world and to seek a true transformation of her state of mind and cultivation path.

Lin Xun mused, “But following by my side will only make it more dangerous. If an accident happens to her...”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale said with a smile, “Everything that happens is fated, and our Jintian Clan will never blame you for what happens.”

He laughed to himself. How would they...have the right to blame a young man?

Lin Xun said aloud, “I can agree to this but, Elder, you have to promise that my arrangements will be followed no matter what happens.”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale agreed without any hesitation.

……

“Xuanyue, to tell you the truth, what I am doing is just a gamble. I am gambling that your aptitude and talent will let you rise strongly in the future, ascend the dao, and seek an Emperor opportunity if you stay by Yu Xuan’s side.”

The moment Sword Emperor Brave Gale returned, he went to find Jintian Xuanyue to have a serious conversation with her.

Jintian Xuanyue blinked blankly, her star-like eyes clouded over with confusion. “Ancestor, why do you think so highly of him?”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale’s eyes shone with divine light. “You will understand one day. If you trust me, then follow that kid.”

Jintian Xuanyue was silent for a long while, and finally she nodded.

Tender and protective feelings surged in Sword Emperor Brave Gale’s heart. “Girl, if you don’t want to, I...won’t force you.”

Jintian Xuanyue took a deep breath and raised her heavenly beautiful face, her bright eyes bore a look of determination. “Ancestor, I know you are doing this for my own good.”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale felt relieved.

The Imperial Jintian Clan had existed to this day and was known as a powerful ancient imperial clan, but only Sword Emperor Brave Gale knew that the clan was in a declining state compared to the previous generations.

Fortunately, he saw a possibility in Jintian Xuanyue. It was a possibility that could make the power of Emperor Bai in the ancient times reemerge!

“If you want to step into the divine Emperor Stage, you must walk a different path from the world. The turbulent situation in a thousand years…is not far away now…”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale’s eyes were unfathomable. According to the prediction made by the Mythical Huang Dao Court a long time ago, within a thousand years, the Ancient Nebula Road, the entire world, would undergo earthshaking changes!

Changes meant ‘out with the old, in with the new.’ Whoever seized the opportunity might be crowned the best in the next thousand years!

The end of the primeval times gave rise to the ancient era.

When the ancient era came to an end, the present age prospered.

If the present age ended...

Who would rule the next era of hundreds of thousands of years?

……

“Granny, what exactly does Sword Emperor Brave Gale want to do?”

In another courtyard, the hemp-clothed youth asked in puzzlement.

“He must have seen something in Yu Xuan,” responded the old woman casually.

“Oh, I planned to take advantage of the situation to do that brother a favor, but who would have thought that Sword Emperor Brave Gale would beat me to it?” The hemp-clothed youth sighed.

The old woman said, “Young Master, you don’t have to do that. Yu Xuan’s identity is definitely not that simple. It’s not clear whether it will be a blessing or a curse to befriend him. In my opinion, Sword Emperor Brave Gale is just taking a gamble. He wants to seek an opportunity for the girl Jintian Xuanyue from Yu Xuan.”

“A gamble?” The hemp-clothed youth contemplated, then a mischievous smile curved his lips. “Granny, why don’t we also take a gamble? For example, let me be a cultivator attendant by that brother’s side? Perhaps, I can complete my path of conquering my own heart by his side.”

The old woman’s hair bristled and she suddenly tensed up.
