“The Evil Emperor?”

Xuan Ku’s expression had changed slightly, and he began vigilantly looking around. His Internal Strength continuously operated and he was alert to the extreme.

Although Xuan Ku was from a later generation and it had been decades since the era when the Evil Emperor was able to move unhindered in the world, he had nonetheless heard of this Evil Path expert.

70 years ago, the Evil Emperor was already at Peak Grade 1, almost touching the edge of the transformations. Meaning, the Evil Emperor should have already completed two transformations or be at the Grade 1 Great Perfection right now after 70 years.

Xuan Ku was confident in himself, as Buddhist Cultivation Technique restrains evil, but the amount it can restrain was only relative.

Take water for example. Water restrains fire, but how can a drop of water extinguish a monstrous fire?

At this moment, Xuan Ku was facing such a situation. The Evil Emperor was just too powerful. Unless Xuan Ku was also at the Grade 1 Great Perfection, he wouldn’t be able to resist the Evil Emperor.

It’s just that, although Xuan Ku was solemn, there was not much fear in his heart. That’s because he still had the wooden sword given by Su Qin hanging around his neck.

This wooden sword contained a strand of Su Qin’s Divine Sense. Back then, when Xuan Ku was about to be killed by a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster, it was this wooden sword that saved him and killed the Great Grandmaster.

Compared with the solemnity of Xuan Ku, the crowd watching the fight were completely panicked.

“Evil Emperor?”

“Doesn’t that mean that the Evil Emperor had exited his Secluded Cultivation?”

“I finally understand, no wonder why these four Evil Path Martial Artists didn’t disperse and flee. It turns out that they deliberately led Xuan Ku here…”

The crowd wore pale faces, especially Sword King Qingcheng, who was even more frightened. Other people only knew that the Evil Emperor was terrifying, but Sword King Qingcheng knew that even if the Evil Emperor exited his seclusion with a low lifespan, after killing Xuan Ku, the Evil Emperor could absorb all the latter’s blood and recover a bit of his power.

On the other hand, the Four Evil Path Martial Artists wore cheerful smiles on their faces. The Evil Path was similar to the Demonic Path, even worse than the latter.

There was one Demonic Sect, just that although it was destroyed in the hands of the Arhat more than 20 years ago, while the Evil Path was just scattered with no unification whatsoever. But had the former ever made the world so afraid just by hearing a name?

“Lord Evil Emperor, please take action, kill this person with your divine might!”

Qixie Sanren and other three Evil Path Martial Artists once again shouted loudly. Their voices waves spread throughout several li of distance in an imposing manner.

However, even after a while, there was no movement. At this time, the four Evil Path Martial Artists felt that something was not right. They had already shouted several times in a row, but they still did not see the Evil Emperor’s figure.

“What’s the matter?”

Qixie Sanren panicked.

It was only because of the presence of the Evil Emperor did he dare to lead Xuan Ku here and joined forces with three other Evil Path Martial Artists. Otherwise, he would’ve fled long ago!

Not to mention that he was seriously injured from Xuan Ku’s [Great Merciful Palm].

The other three Evil Path Martial Artists also had the same idea.

“Lord Evil Emperor, please take action, kill this person with your divine might!”

The four Evil Path Martial Artists looked at each other and roared again.

In the inn, the chubby inn owner’s expression changed drastically. He had discovered something incredible.

“Impossible!”

“The aura of the Evil Emperor had suddenly disappeared out of thin air!!!”

The inn owner swallowed a mouthful of saliva and exclaimed, his voice trembled.

Although his strength was not as good as the Evil Emperor, with his Divine Sense, he could faintly feel the Evil Emperor’s aura. But just now, he suddenly noticed that the Evil Emperor’s aura had completely disappeared.

“Sir, did the Evil Emperor run away?” The scholar next to him cautiously asked.

After all, Xuan Ku was a Shaolin Temple disciple. Maybe the Evil Emperor feared the Shaolin Temple and changed his mind halfway.

“Run?”

The inn owner looked gloomy and uncertain.

With the strength of the Evil Emperor at Grade 1 Great Perfection, it was absolutely nonsense to flee against a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster like Xuan Ku!

As for the Shaolin Temple?

If the Evil Emperor still had decades more of lifespan, that could’ve been a possibility. But currently, the Evil Emperor only had a few years left, so how could he be afraid of the Shaolin Temple?

What made the inn owner feel even more amazed was that…

The disappearance of the Evil Emperor’s aura was not gradual, like it started from near then to far away. Instead, it was a sudden disappearance, as if he left the Kunlun Mountains in a flash.

But how was it possible?

The Evil Emperor was only at Grade 1 Great Perfection, not a Legend. How could he have such speed?

While the inn owner was in wonder, Su Qin, not far away, casually glanced at the Evil Emperor who was kneeling on the ground, “They are calling for you?”

The Evil Emperor’s strength was indeed very strong. He’s at the Third Transformation and has entered Grade 1 Great Perfection, only half a step away from Legend Realm. Even the Demon Lord more than 20 years ago was not the Evil Emperor’s opponent.

But in front of Su Qin, the Evil Emperor was akin to an ant. Not to mention a Grade 1 Great Perfection like the Evil Emperor, even Legends were nothing to Su Qin.

“My Lord.”

When the Evil Emperor heard Su Qin’s questioning, he resisted the shock in his heart and respectfully replied: “I have nothing to do with these people.”

The Evil Emperor had never been as scared as he was right now. He had been standing at the apex in the Evil Path, where even the leaders of various countries feared him.

But it was only until now, when the Evil Emperor was kneeling in front of Su Qin, did he finally realize how weak he was.

The Evil Emperor doesn’t know the name of Su Qin nor Su Qin’s strength. In fact, he doesn’t know anything about Su Qin at all. All he had was a vague guess that Su Qin seemed to have some connection with Xuan Ku.

That was because before he was transferred here, the last thing he did was prepare to kill Xuan Ku.

When the Evil Emperor heard that the four Evil Path Martial Artists were begging him to take action over and over again, he really wished to squish them all.

“Nothing to do with them?”

Su Qin shook his head. How could he not know what the Evil Emperor was thinking?

“In that case, you resolve this yourself.” Su Qin said.

He had already seen Xuan Ku’s capabilities and could roughly estimate Xuan Ku’s growth over the past two decades, so he naturally doesn’t bother to continue watching.

“Resolve?”

The Evil Emperor was taken aback for a moment, but then he felt the mountain-like weight on his shoulders suddenly loosen. Soon, he recovered his ability to move.

“I will definitely not disappoint the Lord!”

The Evil Emperor took a deep breath, calmed down and walked outside.

“None of them can see me?”

The Evil Emperor swallowed a mouthful of saliva and muttered to himself. He could feel that some of the Martial Artists in the inn did not notice his existence at all, and even the inn owner, who was a Peak Grade 1, never noticed him.

“What the hell is this?”

The Evil Emperor’s scalp was numb, and his back had been soaked with cold sweat.

Currently, outside the inn.

After the four Evil Path Martial Artists, headed by Qixie Sanren shouted “Lord Evil Emperor, please take action, kill this person with your divine might!” several times, the atmosphere on the battlefield suddenly became strange.

The crowd looked at each in blank dismay. They found that the Evil Emperor that they were terrified of, did not appear.

“What’s the matter?”

“Is it possible that these four Evil Path Martial Artists are lying and the Evil Emperor isn’t actually here?”

“That should be impossible. Since they dare to do something like this, they must have something to rely on. Even if it is not the Evil Emperor, it should at least be a Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmaster…”

The crowd began to cautiously look all around and talked in a low voice.

“There’s no other aura of an Evil Path Grade 1…” Xuan Ku had carefully scanned all around with his Divine Sense, he slightly frowned.

He had a Buddha’s Heart and was extremely sensitive to the outside world. When Qixie Sanren spoke the word ‘Evil Emperor’, Xuan Ku began to check the surroundings.

However, he did discover a faint aura within the inn, but it was definitely not from an Evil Path Martial Artist, let alone the Evil Emperor.

As Xuan Ku was puzzled…

“Escape!!!”

The four Evil Path Martial Artists suddenly began fleeing to all directions.

After the Evil Emperor did not respond for a long time, would these four dare to continue to stay in this place? Without the slightest amount of hesitation, they escaped.

“Not good!”

Xuan Ku’s face changed slightly. What he worried about most was this. The four Evil Path Martial Artists scattering and fleeing. Although with Xuan Ku’s speed, he would be able to catch up to one if he chose one direction, he won’t be able to catch up to the other three.

“I should go after Qixie Sanren.”

“Of the four Evil Path Martial Artists, he has caused the most deaths.”

Xuan Ku’s thoughts quickly turned. As he was preparing to move towards the direction where Qixie Sanren fled, a terrifying evil aura suddenly burst out from the inn as a man strode out.

“He is… the Evil Emperor?”

The moment Xuan Ku saw this man, he immediately stopped chasing Qixie Sanren, and closely stared at the man.

The crowd watching was deathly pale. They didn’t expect that the Evil Emperor had been hiding in the inn all this time.

“Evil Emperor?”

The inn owner opened his eyes wide. His Divine Sense had enveloped the entire inn, but he didn’t even notice where the Evil Emperor came from.

“Lord Evil Emperor.”

“Lord Evil Emperor has finally appeared.”

The four Evil Path Martial Artists who were fleeing were overjoyed and were about to move towards the Evil Emperor.

Hmph~!”

The Evil Emperor coldly glanced at the four Evil Path Martial Artists, and under the shocked gaze of everyone, he struck his hand towards them.

[Hong long long~]!

In an instant, terrifying Evil Internal Strength surged and turned into a giant palm, crushing the four Evil Path Martial Artists.

“Evil Emperor, you?!!!”

Qixie Sanren was stunned. Although the four of them were far from being the Evil Emperor’s opponents, if the Evil Emperor wanted to kill them instantly, it was absolutely impossible.

It’s just that they didn’t expect for the Evil Emperor to take action against them. As a result, they didn’t have the slightest defense and died under the palm of the Evil Emperor.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

They have thought that after the Evil Emperor came out, he would kill Xuan Ku with one hand and shock the audience, or Xuan Ku forcefully escaping from the Evil Emperor’s hands with the means left by the Shaolin Temple. Or simply the Evil Emperor dying from the means left by that Arhat.

They had guessed various possibilities and consequences.

However, no one ever thought that the first thing the Evil Emperor would do was to kill the four Evil Path Martial Artists.

“This…”

Xuan Ku, who was secretly holding the palm-size wooden sword around his neck in his hand, was also at a momentary loss.

Not only did the crowd didn’t expect this to happen, even Xuan Ku had no idea.

It was just too incredible.

The next moment, under everyone’s shocked gaze, after the Evil Emperor slapped the four Evil Path Martial Artists to death, he turned around and moved towards the inn. He bowed deeply and said respectfully:

“My Lord, it’s over.”
