Chapter 391: Pressure from the Heavenly Kings
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
It was obvious that many people were puzzled by the sudden appearance of Xuan Yi.
After all, all who were present were heavenly kings, even if not all of them.
In other places, they could be considered elders.
As for a half-step heavenly king, Xuan Yi naturally didn’t deserve to be with them.
Yet, there were still many people who discovered Xuan Yi’s identity.
However, most of them were silent, waiting for a good show.
When Xuan Yi arrived at the Three Hearts Mountain, he had heard the discussions of the crowd.
Although Xuan Yi’s realm was not as high as theirs, his single-wheel soul was not inferior at all.
On the contrary, it was much stronger.
However, according to Xuan Yi’s character, as long as the other party did not disturb him, Xuan Yi would not pay attention to him.
He would just allow them to talk.
Anyway, which heavenly king present could beat him?
Xuan Yi was still very confident in his own strength.
The person in charge of the reception was naturally a heavenly king. The other party was an elder under the three divine emperors.
His strength was not bad, and he had earned his reputation in Endless Sea Battle.
Because the other party was more amiable, coupled with the special identity of a comrade-in-arms, Xuan Yi was more polite to him.
He cupped his hands slightly, which could be considered as a bow.
The other party also returned the bow and said, “Your Excellency Xuan Yi, may I ask if the divine emperor behind you has come together?”
Xuan Yi shook his head.
“The divine emperor has his matters to deal with. Why? Could it be that I can’t come without him?”
“Nope, there’s no such reason.”
One had to know that although Bing Yu and Long Xin were both mighty figures gifted by the system, Bing Yu was open for use without any restrictions.
Long Xin was different. Xuan Yi only had three chances and he had to act wisely.
He could only use him when his life was in danger.
Naturally, he wouldn’t use them in this unsubstantial meeting of heavenly kings.
The three divine emperors who were sitting on the high platform in the middle frowned when they heard this.
However, they were people who had seen great storms and waves, so they did not express their thought lightly.
After all, in terms of combat strength, Xuan Yi was the strongest other than the three of them.
Although they invited Xuan Yi with the divine emperor token, they still needed to find Long Xin.
As for why they didn’t go and look for him themselves?
Naturally, they couldn’t find him.
After the war in Jade Domain, Long Xin had disappeared without a trace.
No matter how the three divine emperors searched and exhausted all sorts of methods, there was still no trace of him.
It was as if such a person had never appeared before.
Therefore, they turned their attention to Xuan Yi.
They hoped that Xuan Yi could bring the mysterious Long Xin to participate in this Heavenly King Assembly.
This could be considered a metaphor in a sense.
However, Xuan Yi couldn’t be bothered with it.
If he couldn’t participate, Xuan Yi would just raise his leg and leave. They were just a bunch of people who looked down on others.
Xuan Yi couldn’t be bothered to participate.
Not to mention that Long Xin only had three chances to be summoned, even if it was unlimited, Xuan Yi was too lazy to bring him.
It was a waste of time.
The three divine emperors did not say anything. Although they were thousands of feet away, they could still hear the conversation clearly.
They were still a little disappointed.
After all, Long Xin was much stronger than them.
The three divine emperors added together were not a match for him.
There were still many places for them to seek advice from.
Long Xin could even break through the fourth layer of sword intent of the Divine Emperor Sanxin easily.
Of course, since he did not come, it could only be wishful thinking.
Although the three divine emperors did not mind, it did not mean that the old heavenly kings present had acknowledged Xuan Yi’s status and strength, especially those old monsters who had hidden from the world.
They had begun to cultivate in seclusion a long time ago and had seen countless geniuses fall.
Naturally, they thought that Xuan Yi was just a flash in the pan.
In another thousand or even a hundred years, someone would break his legend and Xuan Yi was not worth mentioning.
This was the consensus of many people present.
Xuan Yi had only killed a few ancient people.
They could do it, too.
Their strength was stronger than those ancient people.
Of course, this was what they thought.
Soon, someone started to attack Xuan Yi.
The one who spoke was Heavenly King Jiuxuan.
“You are Xuan Yi? You are just at Sage Realm. How dare you attend the Heavenly King Assembly? Are you worthy?”
Xuan Yi replied fearlessly, “The people who invited me are divine emperors. Are you the one who decides whether I’m worthy or not? Aren’t you just a guest? Are you trying to take over the master’s position?”
When he said this, Heavenly King Jiuxuan’s expression changed.
The three divine emperors who were thousands of feet away also changed their expressions.
Although Xuan Yi’s words were a little overboard, there was still some truth.
The three of them were the ones who made the decision. No matter how powerful the others were, they did not have the right to dictate their arrangements?
Divine Emperor Sanxin sighed. Heavenly King Jiuxuan was really narrow-minded to the extreme.
Ever since the other party was defeated back then, he went into seclusion and never saw anyone again.
Although he had a short exchange with the other party, he did not expect that things would turn out this way.
In fact, it was normal.
In their final battle, Divine Emperor Sanxin used the opportunity to perfect his cultivation technique and directly advanced to the Divine Emperor Realm.
His name spread throughout the entire South Continent.
However, in contrast, Heavenly King Jiuxuan could only hide from the world and no longer meet people. He focused on cultivating.
However, as his lifespan continued to decrease, his talent had also reached its limit.
Up until now, he still had not broken through to that realm.
Moreover, even if he did, he did not dare to confirm if he could survive this heavenly punishment with his strength.
As long as he could not survive it, he would die without a doubt.
Hence, Heavenly King Jiuxuan’s character became more eccentric.
This fellow did not have much lifespan left, yet he still liked to make enemies for himself.
Divine Emperor Sanxin was about to stand up and stop Heavenly King Jiuxuan as he naturally would not listen to the words of the heavenly king present.
After all, in his opinion, these fellows were merely juniors.
It was a great humiliation for him to be reduced to being together with juniors.
Thus, he would not listen to them.
Probably, only Divine Emperor Sanxin could persuade him.
Jiuxuan continued, “I naturally do not have the right to decide, but it is okay for me to interrupt, right? You are merely a Sage Realm junior. After thousands of years, you will only be a skeleton.”
“If I were you, I’d find a place to focus on cultivation first. When you’re tired of living, you can talk to me again!”
At this time, a voice came from the crowd.
“Xuan Yi, don’t pay attention to this old thing’s nonsense.”
“It’s just that his talent is limited and his lifespan is about to end. He’s envious of our long lifespan.”
These words could be said to have hit the sore spot of Heavenly King Jiuxuan.
Then, he glared.. He wanted to see which fellow was tired of living.
