Chapter 1405: Chapter 867: In Conversation_2 Chapter 1405: Chapter 867: In Conversation_2 However, the strength of these three individuals is indeed exaggerated; three Quasi-Immortal Emperors with incredibly solid auras, they are probably one in a hundred million in this realm. They should not lie about such matters, but in any case, this is a place where prying is forbidden.

By doing so, these three have already broken the rules.

The situation with that monkey is different.

Although the monkey frequently breaks into this area, it does so with the approval of Senior Jiang, who allows it to freely enter and exit the various forbidden areas of the village.

Like that monkey, there is another monkey, which looks extremely similar, the only difference being that the latter has six ears and is said to be able to hear everything in the world.

Usually in such situations, Senior Jiang would specifically notify to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings.

The Underworld is exclusively established by Senior Jiang himself, but it is entirely separate from the village, a different system altogether from Liu Village.

Perhaps Senior Jiang momentarily forgot to mention this to these individuals, but there are several signs set up in The Underworld, clearly and explicitly stating, “Living persons keep out.” Yet, these three still barged in and even tried to step onto Netherworld Road, which only wraiths could traverse. How could they not know that this road could never allow the living to pass?!

It is clearly written on the Stele of Netherworld Road, yet these three still insisted on going their own way. If not for my timely awareness at the crucial moment, would they not have successfully embarked on that path…

At that time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

There are tens of thousands of paths on Netherworld Road, which connect the veins of The Underworld, but the end of this particular one leads to the Eighteen Levels of Hell.

“It is not a threat, but rather a desire to turn hostility into a silk banner, as we are all on the same front. How can there be infighting?!”

The one who spoke was Ye Fan, with a resonant voice.

“But you were the ones who broke the rules first, and you want to turn hostility into jade silk. Fine, but first, leave this place!”

The Footprint Emperor snorted coldly.

He values this place more than his own life, relying on it as his chance to return again.

Bowing one’s head is possible, but only after defeating him.

Having been embarrassingly suppressed by the combined efforts of the Three Dark Emperors, with not even a complete body left, the Footprint Emperor had been harboring anger in his heart all along; it was just suppressed.

Who is to blame but himself for being too careless initially?

Otherwise, even if surrounded by three Dark Immortal Emperors, it wouldn’t necessarily mean they could suppress him.

After all, he could run. If not stronger, fleeing was something he could accomplish, escaping back to his own time and space.

Then, bound by the barriers of karma, those three Dark Quasi-Celestial Emperors might not necessarily follow.

Of course, all these are things of the past, not to be mentioned again.

What’s important now is how to deal with these three people.

Inside the great hall, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Emperor No-Origin and the Footprint Emperor confronted each other, like two immovable mountains, the Emperor aura from their bodies billowing like a fierce storm, seemingly capable of tearing the space apart at any moment.

Seeing that the situation was about to spiral out of control, Ye Fan and Emperor Merciless instantly interposed themselves between the two.

“Harmony is precious, we are all our own people, why must we fight among ourselves?” Ye Fan said solemnly.

If they really started fighting, it would certainly be too severe.

After all, whether it’s Emperor No-Origin, or the Emperor Realm existence in front of him, both are transcendent beings. Once both sides engage in battle, the destructive power would be unimaginable. Such a battle could not only destroy the entire hall but might even affect a broader area, by then, it would truly have to be brought to Brother Jiang of the Dao’s attention.

Not to mention whether Brother Jiang would blame them, but surely, his impression of them would decrease first.

Emperor Merciless also nodded in agreement: “Brother Jiang, if he knew, would definitely not want to see us fighting like this.”

“At that time, I will explain everything to the Adult.”

The Footprint Emperor’s expression did not change.

In his view, these people had already touched his bottom line, attempting to pry into the secrets of the Underworld, which was absolutely intolerable.

“Boom!”

Without any bugle sound.

Inside the hall, two forces surged skyward and collided in mid-air, unleashing a deafening roar.

The entire hall trembled violently from the impact of this force.

Despite Ye Fan and Emperor Merciless trying their best to dissuade them, the confrontation between Emperor No-Origin and Footprint Emperor was inevitable. Two powerful forces erupted like torrents, clashing against each other, generating endless ripples of energy.

Emperor No-Origin’s figure was like an illusion, each step seeming to cross the boundaries of time and space. His palm radiated dazzling light, every swing seemingly capable of ripping through the void. Meanwhile, Footprint Emperor was like an ancient War God, his body exuding an aged and mysterious aura, each strike containing the power to destroy heavens and earth.

…

In the village, behind the mountain.

Jiang Hui was feigning sleep.

Although he did not need rest, he was accustomed to it, feeling something was missing without a nap.

At this moment, he suddenly sensed a disturbance from The Underworld, and Jiang Hui abruptly opened his eyes.

While he established The Underworld and possessed control and authority over it, more profound aspects were rather ambiguous.

Hence, unless there was some significant fluctuation inside, that place was usually not within Jiang Hui’s perceptual range.

After understanding the situation, Jiang Hui was somewhat speechless.

The trio was really persistent.

They insisted on figuring out why their traces were absent in future generations…

If they could figure that out, wouldn’t his trip have been in vain?

However, it was necessary to establish good relations with Ye Fan and others, firstly because these characters were his favorites, with a hint of idealization.

Secondly, Ye Fan could eventually reach Above The Sacrificial Path, and it seemed Emperor Merciless could too, though he wasn’t sure, but nonetheless, there would be at least one among them.

They saw his current strength as exceptional, but they did not know that he saw their future potential as outstanding…

Of course, what Footprint Emperor did was even more indisputable.

The Underworld is crucial in the village, and he had indeed told him, not allowing anyone to pry into it.

Although Ye Fan and the others had set out to solve the mysteries of the future, breaking the rules was still breaking the rules.

It was completely justified for Footprint Emperor to make a move.

However, Jiang Hui certainly would not really let Footprint Emperor and people like Ye Fan fight severely, as beings at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Level did not have a “fight-to-befriend” scenario, it would be too impactful.

Thoughts swirling, Jiang Hui shook his head and extended a hand as white as jade towards The Underworld.

In the great hall, as the two were about to make their move, they suddenly felt an immense and boundless power strike them. Amidst the tumult of the Netherworld, before they could react, Ye Fan and the two others were abruptly seized by Jiang Hui.

…

In the village, mountains stood side by side, and the sound of flowing water could be heard.

In the distance, wisps of cooking smoke ascended, appearing like delicate gauze under the gentle breeze.

The air also carried the unique scent of burning dry wood, a smell that made people accustomed to it instantly feel an unprecedented tranquility and harmony.

In front of a huge rock, Shi Hao stood upright, his body turned to look beside another giant rock, having waited here for some time.

Clad in black, his appearance sharp, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He had a habit of using Jiao Snake Shedding to wrap around his legs, looking remarkably agile.

That day, after learning that Ye Fan and others had gone to Liu Village, he returned to the Heavenly Court, soothed Fire Spirit and Yun Xi, and after awakening Shi Fan and Shi Lin from perpetual biotic forms, he didn’t wait much longer and hurried over to personally thank Ye Fan and the others.

They repeatedly saved him, and while they had their motives, gratitude could not be obscured; aiding him was aiding him, and imperfections could not mask the virtues. Moreover, their motives were not out of selfish desires.

The grand desires of the Great Duke are, “If not me, who else?”

He’s not a man who forgets favors and betrays morals; how could he not repay them!

Additionally, after stepping into the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, amidst the vague visions related to the future that Shi Hao saw, he could sense desolation and ruin, the utter silence of true life, troubles not just for the Ten Thousand Clans.

The real enemy was still hidden in the dark; otherwise, those three wouldn’t give him a profound sense of exhaustion.

Three Quasi-Immortal Emperors, indefatigable vitality, surging blood and vigor, their energy beyond imagination; how could they possibly exude a sense of being utterly exhausted.

This was clearly abnormal, indicating only that the enemies they faced were too terrifying, overwhelming them, or that they couldn’t face them, hence why they kept reversing time and coming to find him.

However, after arriving at Liu Village, despite searching everywhere, he could not find those fellow Daoists. Fortunately, he encountered Old Man Lin on the road, and after some inquiries, he learned that the three were currently talking with Senior Liu.
