Why did this happen!
Why!
The Three-footed Golden Crow bawled in his heart. He did not understand why he was badly injured the moment he woke up.
In his memory, there were no such powerful creatures in this universe.
The Earth had no spiritual Qi. Why would any cultivator occupy it?
Most horrifyingly, he could not control his mouth and revealed the truth.
The crow’s language was odd, but Zhou Xuanji and Xian Xianghua could use their highly cultivated divine sense to understand him.
The Three-footed Golden Crow came to this universe tens of millions of years ago.
A long time ago, his master, Sky Emperor, brought him into the Milky Way and found mysterious but powerful energy hidden within the Earth. So, Sky Emperor ordered the crow to hide inside the Sun and wait for him to come back.
This time, he was awakened suddenly. Before he was even fully conscious, he sensed that there were many living creatures on Earth and wanted to devour the Earth.
“Sky Emperor?”
Zhou Xuanji narrowed his eyes. Somehow, he remembered the Flame Emperor.
Both were named Emperor with a single surname. Could they be related?
He immediately asked, “Do you know Flame Emperor and Kunlun Origin Court?”
The Three-footed Golden Crow was shocked. “I know Flame Emperor,” he replied, “he and my master are among the Void Boundary 13 Emperors. I heard my master mentioned Kunlun Origin Court. But I’m not sure what it is specifically.”
When these words were out, the crow was in total despair.
Oh no…
His captor knew the Flame Emperor and must be the enemy of Void Boundary 13 Emperors.
I’ve sold my master. When my master returns, I will surely die.
No, I’m going to die now.
The Three-footed Golden Crow was in total despair and almost passed out.
“Void Boundary 13 Emperors? What’s Void Boundary?”
Xian Xianghua asked curiously, sounding a little excited.
Flame Emperor could be someone who stood toe-to-toe with the Heavenly Law. If the Void Boundary 13 Emperors were to work together, how powerful would they be?
The Three-footed Golden Crow resisted in his heart, but his body answered obediently, “Kunlun Origin Court’s surrounding void is the Void Boundary. The Void Boundary 13 Emperors are the executives of the Void Boundary. They prevent others from infiltrating Kunlun Origin Court, as well as preventing anyone from escaping from it.”
Zhou Xuanji and Xian Xianghua looked at one another. They understood immediately what each other was thinking about.
The Void Boundary would lead them to Kunlun Origin Court.
But Zhou Xuanji had already offended the Flame Emperor. Moreover, he captured the Three-footed Golden Crow, through which he also offended Sky Emperor.
If he were to head to Void Boundary, he would spell great disaster to himself.
“When is your master coming back?”
Xian Xianghua asked further, but the Three-footed Golden Crow almost lost his mind.
Please, stop asking me!
I’m sorry!
He answered honestly, “I’m not sure. He came back not long ago, so he might take a very long time to come back again.”
Oh no…
This time, they will really kill him for leaking so much information.
“How shall we deal with this crow?”
Xian Xianghua asked Zhou Xuanji with a murderous aura in her eyes.
The crow was so frightened that he almost passed out.
“Don’t kill him,” Zhou Xuanji smiled, “Thinking about it, he’s quite innocent.”
These words really touched the crow’s heart.
After that, Zhou Xuanji stored it inside the Tianxia Map.
“Seems like I need to find ways to become more powerful,” he said intently with a frown.
He had to overcome the Void Boundary 13 Emperors before reaching the Kunlun Origin Court.
They became the Void Boundary executives, which meant that there were many more powerful factions behind their backs.
Sky Emperor would surely come to him if he stayed on Earth.
But if he were to leave Earth, where would he go?
Without them, Earth would most likely face destruction.
Zhou Xuanji struggled with the dilemma.
Xian Xianghua understood his thoughts and suggested, “Put Earth into the 24 Rank Deep Black Lotus. With the other three worlds taking care of it, this will not be difficult.”
Zhou Xuanji thought about it and felt that this was workable.
He had feelings toward Earth and did not want to see Earth be destroyed just like that.
He shook his head and replied, “It’s not enough to just throw Earth inside. The humans on Earth are too weak and have never sensed spiritual Qi before. Moreover, this would turn Earth into a great mess because they have the technology to explore the universe.”
If humanity found out that the external universe disappeared and that someone had taken control over them, they would feel fear and hate.
Zhou Xuanji understood Earth’s humans too well.
They were intelligent and refused to be bound. No mortal realm could be compared to them.
Even the Great Thousand World creatures might not be as sly and ambitious as Earth’s humans.
Suddenly, Zhou Xuanji had a bold idea.
And that was to encapsulate the entire Milky Way into the 24 Rank Deep Black Lotus. Earth’s humans did not have enough understanding of the universe outside of the Milky Way. They could only speculate.
He felt that this was a good idea.
He shared this with Xian Xianghua, and she rolled her eyes at him.
“How much magic energy would that require. Aren’t you tired?”
Xian Xianghua said unpleasantly. She could not understand the love Zhou Xuanji had for Earth.
Zhou Xuanji did not even put in so much effort in protecting the Northern Wilderness Region.
Zhou Xuanji smiled. He flew out of Earth and was on his way to the top of the Milky Way Galaxy.
He had sensed a familiar aura when he just exited Earth.
That was Sheng Tiandao!
“Why is he here?”
Zhou Xuanji was confused and immediately flew toward him.
Sheng Tiandao was resting on a barren planet. He also sensed Zhou Xuanji’s aura.
Opening his eyes, he saw Zhou Xuanji in front of him.
“You… are still alive?”
Sheng Tiandao cried out in pleasant surprise. He got up immediately and took hold of Zhou Xuanji’s arms passionately.
Ever since he came to the Milky Way, he had been in great trouble.
There was no spiritual Qi at all.
After he broke free from the Heavenly Law, his power truncated greatly. He was no longer in the Saint Realm, which was why he did not sense Zhou Xuanji’s presence.
“Why are you here?” Zhou Xuanji asked, “Tell me what happened.”
Sheng Tiandao took a deep breath and told Zhou Xuanji everything happened after his disappearance.
Ever since Zhou Xuanji was banished, the other three Heavenly Saints were so frightened that they escaped the Heavenly Law Universe.
In their wandering, they encountered the Water Emperor of the Void Boundary 13 Emperors. Sheng Tiandao was fortunate to have fled, while Barbarian God Huangluo and Buddha Yang Ling were captured.
After that, Sheng Tiandao went through countless dangers, be it spatial storms, horrifying monsters hiding in the void, and unkillable ghosts that troubled him endlessly.
He only came to the Milky Way after a few thousand years.
Mentioning these past events, Sheng Tiandao sighed, again and again, tears flowing down his eyes.
“A few thousand years…”
Zhou Xuanji frowned and fell into deep thought.
Destiny could change the world?
He did not just end up in a different universe but also at a different time.
Sheng Tiandao took a deep breath and said, “The Void Boundary 13 Emperors are too powerful. You better hide from the Flame Emperor. The consequence of being captured would be too dreadful to even think about it.”
There was fear in his eyes as he spoke about the Void Boundary 13 Emperors.
“Then was the Heavenly Law Universe destroyed?”
Zhou Xuanji asked. He wanted to know what happened to Ren Niming and the old beggar.
“How can it be destroyed?” Sheng Tiandao shook his head and replied, “If it was destroyed, destiny would be destroyed too. It’s just that who is going to lord over it is not confirmed.”
Shortly after, he asked about Zhou Xuanji.
Zhou Xuanji did not hide what happened about the Milky Way being the Sky Emperor’s territory.
How did he tread into enemy territory?
