Peerless God Emperor

Even though Yuan Gang was also a powerful individual, being one of the Ten Sages of the Glazed Light, he still had to lower his head in front of Yi Sheng. The reason why he came to provoke Yi Sheng by sparring between the younger generations of the two great power s was because Yi Sheng could ignore him but he would not agree easily if he wanted to escape unscathed.    

The Nine Heavens Immortal Palace was not a place where he could come and go as he pleased.    

Yuan Qing's countenance turned extremely unsightly as he stared at Yi Sheng, who was seated on the supreme throne. He braced himself and said, "We have given up on the battle of High Rank of Monarch Stage."    

"Give up?" Yi Sheng frowned slightly and said calmly, "Why did you give up? You have to have a reason, right? Do you think that the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace's juniors are too weak and don't want a battle? Or are there other reasons?"    

Everyone from the Nine Heavens Immortal Country had a wonderful expression on their faces after hearing Yi Sheng's words. They felt extremely relieved, and the depression in their hearts vanished like smoke in thin air. They thought, "As expected of the king, he's forced to admit defeat. He can't leave without admitting defeat."    

"Does the king have to ask so clearly?" He naturally noticed that Yi Sheng did not intend to let this matter go easily.    

"Of course, all of you have come here to spar. If you were to leave just like that, and spread the news, the people of the world will likely think that our Nine Heavens Immortal Palace is unqualified to receive guests." Yi Sheng spoke softly. His tone was gentle and reasonable, making it impossible for anyone to find any flaws in his words.    

"During this trip to spar, the strength of the disciples of the Glazed Light Sacred Land are inferior to those of the younger generations of the Nine Celestial Immortals. Thus, there is no need for us to continue fighting in the future." Yuan Gang looked at Yi Sheng and said coldly, "I don't know if the king is satisfied with this reason?"    

"Since the Glazed Light Sacred Grounds consider themselves to be inferior, then there is indeed no need to continue to fight." Yi Sheng nodded with a smile, appearing rather happy.    

"If there is nothing else, we will take our leave." Yuan Gang said goodbye to Yi Sheng. Just as he was about to leave, Yi Sheng said, "Hold it."    

Yuan Qing's expression froze as he looked puzzledly at Yi Sheng. He had already admitted defeat, and was still unwilling to let them go?    

"Today, the Glazed Light Holy Land has brought a disciple here to receive their guidance. They have come and gone, and in the future, the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace will also bring people here to receive their guidance. The Glazed Light Holy Lands should prepare in advance." Yi Sheng said.    

A cold light glinted in Yuan Qing's eyes. Was this a warning?    

When the people of the Nine Heavens Immortal Faction heard Yi Sheng's words, they were overjoyed. The Glazed Light Sacred Land had sent someone to provoke them and did not inform the immortal realms in advance. However, the immortal realms had informed the Glazed Light Sacred Grounds in advance that they would send someone over to prepare ahead of time.    

The difference between the two was obvious.    

"When I return, I will naturally report to the Holy Lord. The Imperial Lord can bring his men with him!" With a cold reply, Yuan Gang led the disciples out of the great hall.    

After those from the Glazed Light Sacred Grounds left, the atmosphere in the great hall finally eased up by quite a bit. Those princes and princesses all had a brilliant smile on their faces, as though they had passed through a calamity.    

However, Yi Sheng's expression remained calm. There was not the slightest ripple, making it difficult for people to see through his true thoughts.    

At this moment, Qin Xuan walked into the hall from outside. He came to the center of the hall and clasped his hands at Yi Sheng. "I've already promised the king. Can you keep your promise, sir?"    

The moment Qin Xuan finished his words, the expressions of many people in the hall couldn't help but change. Promise?    

They suddenly realized something. Could it be that the country leader and Qin Xuan had reached a secret agreement?    

That's why Qin Xuan attacked Fu Yuan?    

They didn't realize this earlier and thought that Qin Xuan was only fighting for the Nine Heaven Immortal countries, but now that they seriously considered it, it was almost impossible. After all, Qin Xuan wasn't from the country of Immortals, so why did he fight for the country of Immortals?    

Unless there was something that the celestial country could give him in return.    

"As expected." A strange light appeared in Mu Wang's eyes. He had expected Qin Xuan to make a move, and it was possible that there was Yi Sheng's shadow behind it. It was just as he had expected.    

Yi Sheng looked calmly at Qin Xuan, but did not reply directly. He was still considering how he should handle the matter.    

If Qin Xuan's talent was only relatively outstanding, he would not hesitate to let Qin Xuan leave. However, the talent that Qin Xuan revealed could only be described as monstrous. Even he rarely saw such an extraordinary junior.    

Amongst his many descendants, other than Yi Chen, there was no other person who could compare to him.    

He was reluctant to let go of such a character.    

Seeing that Yi Sheng did not respond to his words, Qin Xuan squinted his eyes slightly. He had a feeling that things would not be as simple as he thought. There were no longer any external troubles in the Nine Heavens Immortal Kingdom.    

The only thing he could do now was to do as he pleased.    

"royal father wants to keep him?" At this moment, a voice was heard in Yi Sheng's eardrums. It was Yi Chen's voice.    

"Mm, this child has monstrous talent. If he can be of use to me, he will definitely become a great assistance to the immortal countries in the future. He can also support you in the future." At his level, his considerations were no longer limited to the immediate future, but the long term.    

"Does royal father still remember that person I met before?" Yi Chen suddenly asked.    

"People?" Yi Sheng was stunned for a moment before recalling something.    

The first round of the Refinement Grounds was a map of the world. Yi Chen was cultivating in a secret plane and said that he had met a person who was only at the Early Rank of Emperor Stage Realm. As for that secret realm, it was inaccessible even to people at the High Rank of Monarch Stage Realm.    

Yi Sheng seemed to understand something as he asked, "That person is Qin Xuan?"    

"Exactly." Yi Chen nodded. He had forgotten about this matter, but when Qin Xuan appeared in front of him, he immediately remembered.    

"This person is definitely not an object within the pond. Even if he is allowed to use his power and position, it will still be difficult to restrain his heart. His stage is not between this world called Qing Xuan." Yi Chen said slowly.    

From Qin Xuan, he felt a sense of pride that was carved deep into his bones. Although Qin Xuan appeared humble and low-key after he came here, but at some point, that pride was revealed. It was impossible to restrict such a person.    

When Yi Sheng heard this, a look of contemplation appeared in his eyes. Moments later, he looked at Qin Xuan and asked, "Qin Xuan, are you willing to be my foster son?"    

As the sound of his voice faded, everyone in the crowd was stunned. Everyone's gaze stiffened as their breathing froze.    

foster son?    

The king wants to take Qin Xuan as his foster son?    

"This …" Mu Wang and Mu Jinyu's expressions changed when they heard this. They never expected Yi Sheng to say such words and accept Qin Xuan as his foster son. This was the same treatment as Qiu Jue. In the immortal kingdoms, his status was equivalent to a prince and princess.    

However, Mu Jinyu suddenly thought of something and began to worry in her heart. She felt that the background behind this matter wouldn't be so simple.    

Yi Chen looked at Yi Sheng, who was standing above her, and sighed inwardly. In the end, he did it.    

Qin Xuan's gaze gradually turned cold. Did Yi Sheng want him to be like Qiu Jue, staying in the palace of the Nine Heavenly Immortal Palace?    

If so, it would be equivalent to imprisoning him here.    

As if he knew what Qin Xuan was thinking, Yi Sheng continued, "I will not restrict you from going to the Asura's Hell to cultivate. If you want to return to the Qing Xuan Continent, the gates to the Imperial Palace will be open to you at any time. You can enjoy the resources of the Immortal Kingdom to your heart's content."    

After saying that, Qin Xuan's expression froze as he looked at Yi Sheng in disbelief.    

He could not figure out what Yi Sheng was thinking. It was too good to him. His status was on par with the princes and princesses. He could return to the palace at any time. This treatment was too satisfying.    

Was this to rope him in?    

"royal father." A strange glint flashed in Yi Chen's eyes. He was still too young. royal father's decision was more perfect than he had expected. Killing two birds with one stone.    

Not only did it grant Qin Xuan his freedom, it also tied him to the country of immortals through another method. In the future, if Qin Xuan reached the peak of martial arts, then the country of immortals would also have honor.    

"Qin Xuan, what do you think?" Yi Sheng asked Qin Xuan with a warm expression, as if he was an elder treating his own juniors. It was as if he was a completely different person from the Yi Sheng whom Qin Xuan had met at the beginning.    

"Fortunately, the king appreciates it. Qin Xuan is willing." Qin Xuan said respectfully. He naturally knew that this was a way for Yi Sheng to win him over. However, he had given him his freedom and was willing to provide him with resources from the Nine Heavens Immortal Kingdom.    

In the future, when he returned to Tianxuan, the Nine Celestial Immortals would be considered a huge help.    

"You still want to call me the king? It's time to change my words. " Yi Sheng said with a smile.    

"Eh …." Qin Xuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled in understanding: "Greetings, foster father."    

"Yes." Yi Sheng nodded his head in satisfaction as his gaze swept across the crowd below him. He said in a clear voice, "Pass down the order to be alone. From now on, Qin Xuan will be the fifth king of the Nine Heavens Immortal Kingdom with a different surname.    

After Yi Sheng's voice was heard, several powerful auras left the hall immediately to carry out the order.    

At that moment, within the palace, many people had faces full of astonishment, as if they had yet to recover from their shock. They naturally knew the meaning behind bestowing the title of king with a different surname from Qin Xuan.    

The first four kings with different surnames were all meritorious officials of the country of immortals. The country's lord had conferred Qin Xuan the title of King of Qin and built the Duke of Qin's residence. This clearly showed that he placed Qin Xuan at the same height as them.    

At this moment, everyone was also aware of one thing. Qin Xuan, this foster son, had a much higher value than Qiu Jue!    

Mu Jinyu's heart thumped rapidly. Her beautiful eyes were glazed as she stared at Qin Xuan. She felt as though everything that had happened had just happened was just a dream. Was he already the King of Qin?
