Peerless God Emperor

However, at this very moment, an extremely bright divine light was released from Yan Qingyun's body, turning into many illusory wild goose beasts, hovering around her, and letting out ethereal cries, as if trying to stop Di Zhangkong's will from invading her body.    

Di Zhangkong's pupils couldn't help but constrict. This was …    

Was there actually a restriction within her body?    

"Divine Light Protection."    

The expressions of the crowd all changed as they stared deeply at Yan Qingyun. They were all the leaders of their respective transcendent powers, and their judgement was extremely outstanding. This girl was dressed as a man, her identity definitely wasn't as simple as it seemed.    

The Eastern Emperor stood in mid-air, his gaze also sweeping downwards.    

A terrifying light flashed in his eyes, akin to the eyes of a god, as a powerful will gushed into Yan Qingyun's body, similarly sensing the presence of the restrictive barrier.    

"A restriction set up by the late stage of the fifth stage of Saint Stage." The Eastern Emperor's eyes suddenly revealed a strange light. Late stage Saint Stage of the fifth step, this could already be considered the pinnacle of strength.    

This girl had an extraordinary background.    

Ye Tianyan could also tell that Yan Qingyun was not an ordinary person. Looking at the many Sacred Goose phantom that were circling around Yan Qingyun, his eyes revealed a pondering expression, as if he had thought of something.    

Could it be … Where did she come from?    

"Who the hell are you?" Di Zhangkong stared at Yan Qingyun as an aura of superiority gushed forth from him, pressing down on Yan Qingyun, causing her to turn as pale as a sheet of paper.    

At the same time, Mo Lishang, Chu Feng, and Murong Guangzhao, who were in the crowd, felt their hearts tremble. Now that Yan Qingyun was in Di Family's hands and her identity was exposed, what kind of treatment would she receive?    

They didn't dare to imagine.    

"Lord Di Family, is this how you treat a person from the younger generation?" At this moment, a cold voice sounded out.    

The gazes of the crowd shifted to an empty space, only to see a figure clad in an gray robe robe appearing there. He looked like an old man that would collapse at any moment, but his eyes were exceptionally sharp as he coldly stared at Di Zhangkong.    

This person was Mo Shan.    

Di Zhangkong looked at Mo Shan, his eyes flashed with disdain as he sensed the aura Mo Shan was emitting. He scolded Mo Shan coldly, "A mere First Order Saint, do you think you're qualified to talk nonsense in front of me?"    

However, when Mo Shan heard this, his expression didn't change at all. He said in a deep voice, "If you hurt her, Di Family will definitely pay a heavy price!"    

"With just you?" The disdain in Di Zhangkong's eyes grew stronger and stronger. If he was intimidated by a Saint of the first step, then he, Lord Di Family, might as well abdicate his position.    

He had been in charge of Di Family for so many years, what have he not seen before?    

It was simply a pipe dream.    

Seeing Di Zhangkong's tough attitude, Mo Shan's face turned extremely ugly.    

He couldn't even reveal his identity as a princess. There were many top-tier powers here, and once they knew of the princess' identity, they would very likely use a princess to threaten Palace Lord. The consequences would be unthinkable.    

"Did you kill him?"    

Di Zhangkong turned his gaze onto Yan Qingyun once more. His voice was like the thunder of the highest heavens, containing the might of the Heavenly Dao, causing Yan Qingyun's soul to tremble violently. Her hands covered her head as a pained expression appeared on her face.    

"Pfft." Yan Qingyun finally could not hold on any longer and vomited a mouthful of blood. Her aura was extremely dispirited, and a dark red color appeared on her white lips. At this moment, she was still dressed as a man, but she gave off an inexplicable desolate beauty.    

"I killed him." A weak voice drifted out from her mouth. She raised her head and stared at Di Zhangkong, her eyes filled with determination.    

Since there was only one path to death for her, she would do one last thing for him.    

Di Xian's pupils suddenly shrunk when he heard Yan Qingyun's words. He found it hard to believe. "Why?"    

He naturally did not believe that Yan Qingyun was the one who killed them. From the beginning to the end, Yan Qingyun was in his sight, and he never had the chance to make a move. Moreover, Yan Qingyun was not very strong, so how could she possibly kill Di Shifeng?    

She was clearly trying to justify someone else's actions.    

"Patriarch, that person was absolutely not killed by her." Di Xian immediately said to Di Zhangkong.    

Di Zhangkong slightly nodded. He wasn't an idiot. How could he not see that with such a clumsy substitutes, if a woman could kill his son, it would be the greatest humiliation Di Family could face.    

"Do you think you can cover up the real culprit just because you've taken the blame?" Di Zhangkong's voice was as cold as ice. "It's easy for me to find that person. All I need to do is to search through your memories. Are you sure you want to continue concealing this information?"    

Yan Qingyun's heart twitched when she heard those words. She could only feel a terrifying chill spreading throughout her body, so cold that it was suffocating.    

She had still underestimated the methods of these powerful figures.    

Once she was searched for memories, Qin Xuan would be exposed and wouldn't be able to hide it at all.    

Huangfu Hong glanced in Di Family's direction with an indifferent gaze. This matter could be considered to be completely unrelated to them. Right now, he only needed to watch the show.    

All the experts from the great power looked down, the matter had already surfaced. Even if the culprit was not this woman, she could not escape from having a relationship, and they would immediately know who it was.    

"There's no need to search her memories. We just need to find Donghuang Yu. The killer must be him." In the end, he still couldn't bear to see Yan Qingyun being tormented. A woman shouldn't bear so much pain.    

Plus, she wasn't a murderer in the first place, so there was no need for her to suffer for Donghuang Yu.    

"Do you feel sorry for her?" Di Zhangkong turned his gaze onto Di Xian. His gaze was so cold that it was as though Di Xian could see through him.    

"No, it's just that I don't think there's any need for that. The power behind her is likely not simple. If they truly search through her memories, it would create an enemy for Di Family. With that, the Huangfu family would have an advantage." Di Xian replied with a voice transmission.    

Hearing these words, Di Zhangkong's eyes froze. He didn't think too much into it. Now that he thought about it, there was no need for him to do so.    

The fact that someone of the same rank as him was able to lay down a restriction on this woman showed that her status was definitely not simple. Unless it was absolutely necessary, it was best not to touch her.    

After which, Di Zhangkong retracted his aura, as the pressure that was pressing down on Yan Qingyun instantly disappeared. She panted heavily, as though a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders. However, she was still extremely nervous as she worried for Qin Xuan.    

If Di Kong let her go, she would definitely think of a way to find Qin Xuan. At this moment, she could only hope that Qin Xuan had already left Xia Wang Jie and escaped this dangerous place.    

Di Zhangkong furrowed his brows. If Donghuang Yu had really killed Shifeng, he definitely wouldn't be waiting here for death. Not only that, Huangfu Wushuang and the rest claimed that they had never seen him before.    

It wouldn't be easy to find him now.    

"Where was the last time I saw Donghuang Yu?" Di Zhangkong turned to Di Xian and asked.    

"Inside the Great Saint Ruins." Di Xian replied, "However, at that time, all the living people came out of the relic, but he didn't come out. Perhaps, he also died inside."    

"Dead?" Di Zhangkong's eyes abruptly froze. Could it be that they would perish together with Shifeng?    

"I have a way to find his whereabouts."    

At this moment, a voice suddenly drifted out. The gazes of the crowd shifted onto the person who spoke, it was actually the eldest disciple of Di Zhangkong, Di Xu.    

Di Kong had seven disciples, while Di Xu, the eldest disciple, had already stepped into the sage realm, and was a Saint of the first step.    

Di Xu's words caused a sharp light to shine in Di Zhangkong's eyes as he asked, "What method?"    

A trace of doubt appeared in the eyes of the crowd. Di Xu wasn't in the Xia Wang Jie, how could they find out where he was?    

"The method is very simple, you only need to ask Master Tianshu about it. True Monarch Tianshu's will covers every corner of Xia Wang Jie, Seventh Junior Brother used the Monarch Token before he died to fight, and summoned his ancestor's will to battle. It's impossible for him not to know of battles of that level."    

Di Xu spoke up, "Not only that, the battle took place in the ruins. In the past, only the top elites of the younger generations were able to enter the Immortal's cave. For reasons alone, True Lord Tianxu would pay attention."    

After hearing what Di Xu said, a light gleamed in Di Zhangkong's eyes. This technique was indeed feasible.    

And just at that moment, he seemed to have felt something. His gaze looked towards the sky in front of him, as if there was something special about that place.    

Not only him, many of the other experts' gazes were fixated on the space in front of them as their expressions turned heavy. They could sense several powerful auras approaching, it seemed like someone from Xia Wang Jie was about to appear.    

A short while later, a divine light flashed in space. The seven figures emerged from the divine light at almost the same time and appeared before the world.    

"The seven sons of Xia Wang Jie!"    

The gazes of the crowd froze as they stared at the seven silhouettes standing in the air. Their hearts were filled with unease. The seven children of the Xia Wang Jie had never appeared before, so why was it that all of them appeared today?    

"Everyone, how have you been?" Tian Shu's gaze swept across the figures in the sky as he spoke indifferently, his tone filled with an ethereal intent.    

The other experts also cupped their hands towards Master Tianyu. Master Tianxu was older than most of the other experts here, and his cultivation was much higher as well. Naturally, they did not dare to put on airs.    

"Even after thousands of years, the Sacred Masters are still as magnificent as they were back then. This old man is deeply ashamed." Following that, Tian Shu Zi's gaze looked in the direction of the Eastern Emperor and smiled as he greeted.    

"Senior, you're too kind." Dongfang Tian waved his hand and sighed, "Compared to senior, I still have a long way to go."    

The crowd revealed deep expressions on their faces when they heard this. The Eastern Emperor's words were filled with modesty. With his current strength, even if there was a slight difference in strength when compared to True Lord Tianshu, he shouldn't be too far off.    

"Brother Ye Tian." Tian Shu's gaze then shifted to Ye Tianyan as he smiled and said, "In the Xia Wang Jie's training, your son has quite the grace from back then. His talent is extraordinary, and he is calm and reserved. The future can be seen."    

As these words were spoken, many people's faces revealed a strange expression, as if they had heard some other meaning!
