The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor

"Do you think I need cultivation?" Ye Xuan retorted.

This casual remark almost caused internal injuries to the three Great Emperors.

Indeed, with Emperor Ye's foundation, the cultivation techniques he mastered were undoubtedly stronger than theirs. Would he need to cultivate their Great Emperor Immortal Skill?

What a joke.

Don't forget.

Ye Xuan alone holds dominion over nine thousand nine laws.

"Learn to remember." Ye Xuan squinted at the three of them, turned around to leave, and lastly glanced at Jiuyu before calmly saying, "By the way, Xiao Jiu, remember to pay the remaining ten sacks of golden essence copper coins."

After saying this, Ye Xuan finally stepped out of the grand hall.

The face of the Great Emperor Jiuyu instantly darkened.

Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu!

He was a generation of Great Emperor, what kind of nonsensical nickname was this.

He knew this guy was deliberately teasing, but the teasing made him very unhappy.

Unhappy for many years!

"Doesn't this count as trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead?" The Vajra Great Emperor couldn't help but bitterly smile repeatedly.

The face of the Great Emperor Gu Tu was gloomy, coldly snorting, "Never ask me about such matters again!"

Having said this, the Dharma Form of Great Emperor Gu Tu directly disappeared.

It was obvious that the Great Emperor Gu Tu was extremely angry this time.

Of course, this was of no use.

The Vajra Great Emperor sighed, looked at the Great Emperor Jiuyu, and slowly said, "Jiuyu, I'll head back first."

The Great Emperor Jiuyu 'hmm'd' in response, saying nothing.

Indeed, as the Vajra Great Emperor mentioned, they truly failed in their scheme and lost quite a bit.

The foundation of being a Great Emperor for him was relying on the Jiuyu Soul Secret.

It was both a magic treasure and a Great Emperor Immortal Skill.

On his path to becoming an emperor, it gave him significant aid.

Even after becoming an emperor, he couldn't fully comprehend it.

But this time, it was taken away by Ye Xuan.

He understood that if he didn't bring forth the Jiuyu Soul Secret, Ye Xuan would have slaughtered all three of them.

That kind of crisis of death came with extreme eeriness.

Eeriness that made one's scalp tingle.

They were all beings who had experienced death once, by reason shouldn't fear death at all.

But under the threat of that power, they couldn't make any reaction at all, only choosing to bow their heads.

"During the battle with Heavenly Termination Ancient Emperor, this guy clearly didn't use this thing..." The Great Emperor Jiuyu was filled with confusion.

They had been secretly observing the battle between Ye Xuan and the Heavenly Termination Ancient Emperor.

But didn't see Ye Xuan take out any willow stick.

This time, Ye Xuan directly took out the willow stick, instantly making them panic.

"Sigh."

The Great Emperor Jiuyu sighed, feeling slightly melancholy.

Damn, it's forever impossible to turn the tide against Emperor Ye.

Truly as Great Emperor Gu Tu said, he won't entertain thoughts of dealing with Emperor Ye anymore.

Living well in Empty Ancient City, there's nothing wrong with that.

Perhaps there's still a chance for change in the future.

......

After taking ten bags of golden essence copper coins from the two Emperor Generals, Ye Xuan left Jiuyu Mansion, left the North Street, and headed towards the east of the city.

"Another mystery solved..."

Inwardly, Ye Xuan murmured softly.

The power of the ancient character, surpassed the laws of Empty Ancient City.

This was a conclusion obtained from the Heavenly Termination Ancient Land.

And this time's conclusion showed that the Old Ghost Liu Tree transcended the Empty Ancient City.

This was as he had inferred back then.

Just the Old Ghost Willow alone could make those three guys immediately give in, proving that the Old Ghost Willow could similarly threaten the inhabitants of Empty Ancient City.

Those being protected by the laws of Empty Ancient City within its premises wouldn't be killed.

Ye Xuan had stated this before.

But what's the power of the Old Ghost Willow? It's the ability to instantly kill someone.

Just like back in the Demon Realm, Ye Xuan directly used the Old Ghost Willow to instantly kill Demon Emperor-level figures.

This belonged to the power of the Old Ghost Willow.

And when the power of the Old Ghost Willow confronted the forbidden power of Empty Ancient City, there would surely be a distinction of superiority.

The fear of the three Great Emperors represented that the forbidden power of Empty Ancient City was under the power of the Old Ghost Willow.

This result gave Ye Xuan vast imagination space.

"Next time I see that guy, let's see what he says." Ye Xuan grinned.

Although he had dealings with the Old Ghost Willow, he had never received any news from the Old Ghost Willow.

He didn't even know the origins of the Old Ghost Willow at all.

Could only deduce based on his known points, the Old Ghost Willow was at least an existence of the same level as the Emperor Burial Lord.

Of course, what kind of beings they really were, Ye Xuan hadn't yet unraveled this mystery.

......

"So quickly came out, looks like those three guys have already conceded."

In the darkness, an ancient voice with a hint of amazement sounded.

"Didn't it disperse? Why start again?" Someone expressed dissatisfaction.

"Already mentioned that guy is still the Undying Night Emperor, continuing to cause trouble will end worse."

"He went to the east of the city!"

"East of the city? Seems like he's going to find that guy."

"What is that guy's relationship with him..."

Voices of three or five people sounded intermittently.

"Don't know, I heard that guy is among the oldest in Empty Ancient City and has survived to this day."

"Come on, in this Empty Ancient City, who isn't a dead man."

"Although saying so, in reality, everyone is living, doesn't affect..."

"Stop this nonsense, disperse, no further discussions on this matter." A dignified voice rang out in the darkness.

Upon this utterance, everyone seemed a bit fearful, eventually shutting their mouths.

East of the city.

It's the earliest prosperous spot of Empty Ancient City.

Also honored as its oldest origin.

Being able to settle in the east of the city meant one was from extremely ancient times.

Ji Yueyi's residence was in the east of the city.

But this old man is eccentric, running around the city recklessly every day.

The most well-known in the east of the city was the Old Immortal Shop.

At first glance, the Old Immortal Shop appeared as a general store, seemingly selling everything.

But strangely, the Old Immortal Shop never opened its door.

To purchase items, one must enter through the back door.

This is an odd but unwritten rule.

Everyone in Empty Ancient City knew this rule.

Behind the shop of the Old Immortal Shop was an antique residence, resembling a courtyard.

At this moment.

Within the main hall, a gray-robed elder lay in a Taishi chair, holding a black old tobacco pipe in one hand, puffing on dry tobacco, smoke swirling around, squinting to look at the old Confucian scholar sitting on the ground, drinking a mouthful of old wine, drunkenly saying, "What youngsters of the Confucian school can they be, each only knows to practice killing techniques, they aren't part of Confucian school anymore."

The gray-robed elder didn't mind the old Confucian scholar, puffing vigorously twice and saying, "In a bit, I have guests coming."

Ji Yueyi glanced at the gray-robed elder and poured more wine into his mouth, muttering unclearly, "Your damned shop hasn't opened for millions of years, who besides me comes to find you?"

The gray-robed elder wasn't angry, said slowly, "You say you're indeed an existence akin to the founding figure of the Confucian school, yet can't see through even trivial matters?"

Ji Yueyi laughed and said, "What's the use of seeing through, or not seeing through, all are dead, all are forgotten."

"All are living well." the gray-robed elder chuckled.

Ji Yueyi burst into anger, "Rubbish, I'm living quite poorly."

The gray-robed elder indifferently said, "Yet you can't die."

Ji Yueyi slapped the ground continuously in anger, cursing, "That's why I'm so displeased."

Trapped here for many years, unable to die, unable to live well, the knot in his heart never unravels.

"Wait, you'll see a different world in the future." the gray-robed elder stood up from the Taishi chair.

While lying down, it wasn't apparent, once standing, the gray-robed elder appeared spirited, without any hunch in his back, if not for his elderly face, one wouldn't tell he was an older person.

Looking from behind, one might think him in his prime.

"Go drink in the side hall, I'll discuss matters with someone." The gray-robed elder walked beside the old Confucian scholar and gently kicked him.

The old Confucian scholar glared at the gray-robed elder, dissatisfiedly saying, "Could it be some young lady that you're avoiding so much?"

The gray-robed elder leisurely said, "It's you Confucian scholars who proposed the principle of speaking appropriately."

However, the old Confucian scholar sneered, "That was said by the younger generation of the Kong family, what's it to do with me?"

"True enough, otherwise I wouldn't let you drink here." the gray-robed elder smilingly said, "But still, you must go to the side hall."
