Peerless God Emperor

“Of course.” Fen Old Master nodded with a smile. He knew that Qin Xuan was a person who valued friendship. He had been in seclusion for more than twenty years, so he naturally missed his friends and family dearly.    

"Will Fen Old Master come with us?" Qin Xuan asked again.    

“No, I’ll go see my old friends.” Fen Old Master shook his head. Although he had been in the Divine World for many years, he had always been hiding in the shadows. Not many people knew that he had returned. Now that he had officially revealed himself, it was time to see his old friends.    

Qin Xuan’s eyes revealed a strange light. Someone who could be called a friend by Fen Old Master was definitely an extremely powerful figure. However, he did not ask about it. He would definitely have the chance to meet him in the future.    

“You can go. I’ll find you in a few days,” Fen Old Master said with a smile. Qin Xuan nodded and then shot downward.    

“The Divine King has come down!”    

Cries of surprise rose and fell. In the void, countless figures looked at Qin Xuan’s figure with incomparable excitement. Many Empyrean experts felt their hearts beating violently, unable to calm down.    

This was the current monarch of the Divine World. He only had the cultivation of a First Calamity Heavenly Venerate. There was no one like him in the past, and it would be difficult to find someone like him in the future.    

It was no exaggeration to say that this young Divine King was a living legend. When he stepped into the peak of martial arts in the future, they would be the witnesses to his glory.    

In just a few breaths, Qin Xuan had arrived at the space where the Tianxuan Army was. His gaze swept across the familiar figures in front of him, and a gratified smile appeared on his face. He said in a clear voice, “It has been a long time since we last met. I hope you have been well.”    

“We pay our respects to the Godking!” A loud voice rang out at the same time, shaking the Vast Space.    

At this moment, all the figures of the Tianxuan Army bowed to Qin Xuan in unison. Their expressions were incomparably respectful, including Duan Ruoxi, Yan Qingyun, and the others. They weren’t the exception because they were Qin Xuan’s wives.    

Now that Qin Xuan was the king of the God Realm, anyone who saw him should bow to him.    

Qin Xuan’s heart was filled with many thoughts as he watched the scene before him.    

He didn’t feel much when those mighty figures bowed to him before, but now that he saw so many of his close friends and family bowing to him with such respect, he realized that his status was different. Even though he still treated them as friends, they could no longer be as casual as before. There was always a sense of distance between them.    

However, he believed that this sense of distance wouldn’t affect their friendship. The things he had experienced in the past were deeply imprinted in his mind, and he would never forget them.    

“Everyone, there’s no need to be so polite. Please rise,” Qin Xuan said with a friendly expression. He naturally didn’t want to give everyone too much pressure.    

After hearing Qin Xuan's words, everyone stood up one after another. Then, Chu Feng smiled and said, "I knew your identity was not ordinary, but I never thought that you were the descendant of the Old Divine King. With such a heaven-defying identity, you were actually able to hide it for so many years. I truly admire you."    

Many people looked at Chu Feng in surprise. He actually dared to speak to the Divine King in such a tone. It seemed that his relationship with the Divine King was very good.    

Qin Xuan revealed a smile. He naturally did not care about Chu Feng's tone. Instead, he felt extremely happy. This meant that Chu Feng still treated him as a friend, and not the high and mighty Divine King.    

"If my identity was exposed, there would definitely be many people who would target me. I had no choice but to conceal my identity. I did not intentionally lie to everyone." Qin Xuan smiled and explained.    

Chu Feng and the others all nodded. They naturally knew the benefits of this. If the evil people knew his identity, they would definitely think of ways to plunder the inheritance of the Divine King from him. Or, they would directly kill him. Qin Xuan had no other choice but to conceal his identity.    

"For the past few years, you have been silent. I thought that you wouldn't come. I never thought that you would appear at the last moment. It really is unexpected." Yan Qingyun smiled sweetly. She and Duan Ruoxi knew that Qin Xuan was the descendant of the Old Divine King. One day, he would definitely sit on the Divine King's position. However, they never thought that the day would come so quickly.    

"It's a long story. This time, the time spent in seclusion was extremely long. The outside world only passed by twenty years, but the actual time was far longer than twenty years." Qin Xuan said. Hearing this, many people's eyes couldn't help but freeze. Then, they faintly guessed what it was.    

The flow of time in Qin Xuan's seclusion was different from the outside world.    

Thinking of this, they immediately understood a lot. No wonder Qin Xuan's strength had increased so much after being in seclusion for more than twenty years. Not only did he break through to the Heavenly Venerate, his strength had also reached the Third Calamity Realm. This was originally illogical, but since Qin Xuan was cultivating in a place with a different flow of time, it was not surprising.    

At this moment, a group of people came over. Qin Xuan looked at them. There were a few of them. They were Heavenly Venerates, Heavenly Venerates of the Constellation, Heavenly Venerates of the Mystic Cloud, Heavenly Venerates of the Pure Jun, Heavenly Venerates of the Southern Sky Heavenly Empire, and the Imperial Lord of the Southern Sky Heavenly Empire, Nangong Huang.    

"The Palace Lord of the Crimson Gold Heavenly Palace, Heavenly Venerate Ling Xiao, greets the Divine King." The middle-aged man in golden robes bowed to Qin Xuan. There were a few figures standing behind him. They were clearly experts of the Crimson Gold Heavenly Palace.    

Qin Xuan looked at the middle-aged man in front of him. Although he had been in the Crimson Gold Heavenly Palace for quite a while, he had never seen the Palace Lord of the Heavenly Palace. This was the first time he had seen him.    

"Don't stand on ceremony." Qin Xuan said, "Are you here to apologize?"    

"I'm here to apologize to the Divine King." Ling Xiao lowered his head and said with a guilty expression.    

"Apologize?"    

Qin Xuan was a little confused. He asked, "What crime have you committed?"    

"Back then, the forces suppressed the Seven Sword Mountain. The Divine King was in danger, but I didn't go to save him. This is a capital offense. I beg the Divine King to forgive me." Ling Xiao replied.    

Qin Xuan's eyes revealed a hint of deep meaning. Although the Heavenly Palace was a subordinate force of the Divine King, Ling Xiao did not know his identity at that time, so it was reasonable for him not to save him. It was impossible for him to blame Ling Xiao, and Ling Xiao must also be clear about this, but he came here to confess his guilt. It was obvious that he had other plans.    

Did he want to show his loyalty in front of him?    

It was too much of a waste.    

"Back then, you did not know the truth, so how could I blame you? In the future, you just need to do your part." Qin Xuan said, his tone did not reveal any emotions.    

"Thank you, Divine King. Your subordinate will definitely do his best and not let you down." Ling Xiao said with a serious expression, as if he was talking about something extremely important.    

Qin Xuan did not look at Ling Xiao again, but looked at Heavenly Venerate Constellation and Heavenly Venerate Xuan Yun. A relaxed smile appeared on his face as he said, "Long time no see."    

When he heard Qin Xuan take the initiative to greet Heavenly Venerate Constellation and the others, Ling Xiao's expression immediately became unnatural. In Qin Xuan's heart, they were even more important than him, the Palace Lord of the Heavenly Palace!
