Chapter 1280: Demon Mixed-Blood Sovereign Martial Emperor

"You are really stubborn. Three months ago, you made my son kneel. Today, I will make you kneel. Let's see if you are really that stubborn."

Upon seeing that Xiao Chen still did not lower his head at this moment, instead, ridiculing Ao Lang about the thing that Ao Lang feared the most in his heart, the Western Sea Dragon King could not help his expression immediately changing drastically.

"Try attacking him if you dare!"

Just as Xiao Chen was preparing to activate the Azure Dragon Heaven Locking Formation, a cold, emotionless voice rang out in the plaza that was supposed to be empty.

"Who?!"

Ao Lang looked around and saw an eye-catching lone figure in the otherwise empty Azure Dragon Plaza.

In reality, it would be impossible for this figure not to be eye-catching. Ao Lang already scared away everyone else in the plaza. Only this person remained.

"Do you wish to die? I already said it before: scram. Who gave you the courage to remain?!"

Ao Lang felt angry for some reason. A murderous intent stirred as he looked at the person drinking wine, whose back was facing him.

When Xiao Chen looked at this figure, he felt puzzled in his heart. Who is this person? He seems vaguely familiar, but I do not recognize him. He does not seem to be one of the honored guests that I invited.

Loud laughter rang out as that figure turned around. Then, he looked at Ao Lang and said, "Who gave me the courage to sit here? Do I even need your permission to sit here?

"The Human-Demon Sea's Dugu Kuang comes to offer congratulations to the Azure Dragon King on reestablishing the Dragon's Gate!"

This person was actually Dugu Kuang, Dugu Ao's father, a powerful Demon mixed-blood Sovereign Martial Emperor of the Human-Demon Sea.

It was extremely difficult for a Demon mixed-blood to become a Sovereign Martial Emperor. However, once one succeeded, one would become horrifyingly strong.

By clearing six tribulations, one would be termed a Sovereign Martial Emperor. Ao Lang was merely a Seventh Heaven Martial Emperor. Among Sovereign Martial Emperors, he was at the very bottom level.

As for the Demon mixed-blood Sovereign Martial Emperor Dugu Kuang, Xiao Chen could not even detect his existence, much less figure out which Heaven he was at.

However, Xiao Chen could be sure that Dugu Kuang was stronger than the Western Sea Dragon King Ao Lang—significantly stronger at that. This was clear just based on Ao Lang's current expression.

Xiao Chen had not sent an invitation to Dugu Kuang because they had only had a very brief meeting. Furthermore, the other party was a Demon mixed-blood. He found it hard to decipher the other party's thoughts, so he had not requested the latter's participation.

Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, all the honored guests that Xiao Chen invited had gotten blocked. On the other hand, the unpredictable Dugu Kuang appeared uninvited.

"Dugu Kuang!"

Not only Ao Lang showed a change in expression, but the other elders of the Holy Lands and the ancient Noble Clans did as well. Clearly, they all had heard of the reputation of this vicious man.

All those aloof major characters watching in the clouds far away also heavily frowned at this sight.

Dugu Kuang moved one kilometer in one step, arriving at the high platform. Then, he looked at the Western Sea Dragon King Ao Lang. Heavy disdain flashed in his eyes. "You! Either you scram now, or I will make you do it!"

Domineering!

Unexpectedly, the Western Sea Dragon King Ao Lang, who kept telling others to scram, would have such a moment as well. This made everyone else feel very pleased.

Those honored guests who were watching from afar all clapped their hands and cheered.

"I was a step late. Unexpectedly, the situation has reached its current state."

Suddenly, a figure flashed on the platform. It was Lan Chaofeng walking over, clearly fatigued.

"Master!" Lan Shaobai and Lan Tianqi revealed joyful smiles as they greeted him.

Ao Lang asked in disbelief, "Lan Chaofeng, how are you here? I clearly sent three Vice Palace Masters to go and block you."

Lan Chaofeng replied calmly, "Naturally, I killed those three people. I have not truly made a move in so long. To think that I actually spent so much effort getting rid of three Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors! It looks like I'm really getting old."

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

A series of sonic booms rang out. Thirteen old men radiating baleful auras descended from the sky. All of them had blood on them, exuding a presence unlike that of a cultivator from the Heavenly Starry Ocean.

"The thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea are here to congratulate Little Brother Xiao Chen on reestablishing the Dragon's Gate!"

Horror flashed in Ao Lang's eyes. He exclaimed in disbelief, "That's impossible! You thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea should be trapped in the Nine Heavenly Star Formation of the Cyclic Astral Palace's Palace Master."

"Humph! We each used one hundred years of our lifespan and worked together. After that, breaking his formation was easy!"

The group of elders from the Holy Lands and the ancient Noble Clans led by Ao Lang all slowly revealed expressions of horror. These elders all felt that the situation was proceeding in an unexpected direction.

"What's going on? The thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea still managed to arrive."

"It's over. Just one Dugu Kuang alone is already enough to mess everything up. Now, with the arrival of the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea, what can we do?!"

Xiao Chen's heart filled with ineffable surprise. He did not know how to describe his feelings right now. Originally, he thought that the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea would not be able to arrive and that he would fail to continue with this Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony.

Who would have imagined that for the sake of one promise, the thirteen Great Bandits would actually be willing to use one hundred years of their lifespans to break a formation?

"Haha! Little Brother Xiao Chen, since we Great Bandits of the Black Sea agreed to come, we will definitely come. Whoever dares to cause trouble at this reestablishment ceremony will be going against us, the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea!" The Blood Shark Sovereign laughed loudly as he led the thirteen Great Bandits up the platform.

Ao Lang could not stop sweating. If it was just one Dugu Kuang, he still could fight it out. However, with the arrival of the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea, he was already finished. He had no chance of turning this situation around.

"The Northern Sea Alliance comes to offer congratulations to the Azure Dragon King on reestablishing the Dragon's Gate!"

A warship flew over from the horizon. Ye Chen stood at the bow of the vessel, frantically waving at Xiao Chen while smiling. "Brother Xiao Chen, this time, in order to force back those two undying old men from the Five Poison Sect and the Heavenly Province Academy, my father even used a Primordial Emperor Treasure. You'd better entertain us well to make up for it."

Ye Chen's father, who stood at the side, smiled faintly. He performed a cupped-fist salute in Xiao Chen's direction and said, "Little Friend Xiao Chen, this Ye will definitely do his best to complete the things that I promised you."

"Young Master Xiao, we were somewhat delayed on the way here. Yao Yan is late."

The Thousand Feathered Snake, an ancient mutated beast, slowly carried Queen Yao Yan, who wore the Thorn Sovereign Circlet, over.

Xiao Chen looked at the smiles on Yao Yan and the various seniors who arrived. He felt very touched. Although he did not have many friends, these friends were absolutely reliable in a pinch.

The sudden appearance of various major characters flabbergasted the honored guests outside the plaza.

"This is too exaggerated. Not to mention the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea coming together being unprecedented, even the Northern Sea Alliance's Alliance Chief personally showed up."

"Xiao Chen has really got great charisma. The thirteen Great Bandits were willing to sacrifice one hundred years of their lifespans, and the Northern Sea Alliance's Alliance Chief even used a Primordial Emperor Treasure."

"Unexpectedly, the queen of the Merfolk Race came. This Queen Yao Yan is really incredible; she already rules the Chaotic Demonic Sea. A major character, who dominates her area, actually came."

On the high platform, the previously high-spirited elders who accompanied the Western Sea Dragon King turned pale and trembled in their seats.

The Western Sea Dragon King was in an even worse state. He continuously used his hand to wipe away the sweat from his forehead. Occasionally, he looked into the distance, in a particular direction where some clouds were. However, there was no sign of activity coming from those clouds at all, making him feel even more panicked.

--

Within those particular clouds, the Sect Masters of the Heavenly Province Academy and the Five Poison Sect, as well as the people of the Divine Dragon Palaces of the four seas, all looked in the direction of a warship with starlight surrounding it.

The reason was none other than the Prime there, the Cyclic Astral Lord!

Inside the warship, the Cyclic Astral Lord frowned heavily. This was the scene that he did not want to see at all. He was not willing to personally show up at the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony since doing so would be tantamount to declaring hostilities with the Thunder Sovereign.

The Cyclic Astral Lord was not willing to shoulder such a consequence.

However, it was clear that the Western Sea Dragon King could not cope with the current situation. Instead, he became like a fish on a chopping board; anyone could deal with him. If the Cyclic Astral Lord did not take the lead, the Sect Masters of the other Holy Lands would not be willing to take the lead, either.

"Cyclic Astral Lord, what should we do? Please express your stance!" the Heavenly Province Academy's Sect Master urged.

Likewise, the Five Poison Sect's Sect Master said, "As long as you are willing to step up, we will definitely follow."

The Clan Heads of the ancient Noble Clans also said that as long as the Cyclic Astral Lord was willing to step up, they were willing to follow as well.

The Dragon's Gate was a nightmare for them. The peak factions of the Heavenly Starry Ocean were not willing to see the Dragon's Gate reestablished. They were even more afraid of the appearance of another Azure Emperor.

As long as there was a Prime taking the lead, these factions were willing to pay the price of offending the Thunder Sovereign in order to prevent the reestablishment of the Dragon's Gate.

"Never mind!"

Stars flickered in the eyes of the Cyclic Astral Lord. Finally, he came to a decision. However, the moment he raised his leg to step out, he suddenly felt an aura that even he feared.

The Cyclic Astral Lord's expression changed slightly, and he pulled his leg back. Then, he said sullenly, "Set off! Return to the Cyclic Astral Palace!"

The Cyclic Astral Palace's warship immediately turned around. Then, it quickly left the clouds while bathed in starlight.

The other Holy Masters all showed doubtful faces. They did not know what happened. However, when they saw the Cyclic Astral Lord do this, they knew that something was wrong and quickly retreated.

"Let go! Back to the Five Poison Sect!"

"Back to the Heavenly Province Academy!"

"Back to Great Sun Island!"

Soon, only the Lunar Palace's warship remained in those clouds. The Lunar Palace's Palace Master looked into the distance. Then, she sighed, "Let's go, back to Bright Moon City!"

Yue Bingyun ran over anxiously. "Master, what's wrong?"

"Nothing. It is as you wished. The Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony can successfully proceed. The Supreme Sky Prime Ying Zongtian is here!"

Yue Bingyun immediately showed joy on her face, but she quickly repressed it soon after. Then, she looked at her master carefully. After all, her master had a special hatred for the Azure Emperor's descendants.

--

Suddenly, a strong aura encased the Azure Dragon Plaza, inspiring fear in everyone as well as an urge to prostrate themselves on the ground.

Two figures appeared out of nowhere—one male and one female. The male looked imposing and impressive like all the light in the world focused on him. He radiated a strong, supreme, and unparalleled aura.

The female, who looked like a peerless talent, had a small bird perched on her shoulder. When the two saw Xiao Chen, she waved from afar. She revealed a gentle smile and said, "Junior Brother, First Senior Sister is here to see you!"

"Plop!" The Western Sea Dragon King Ao Lang directly fell off his chair, frightened pallid.

He knew that he was now out of his league. The Prime Ying Zongtian was here!

"First Senior Sister!" Xiao Chen called out joyfully. This was truly an unexpected pleasant surprise. Based on the news that he obtained previously, First Senior Sister had gone to the Astral Battlefield. Surprisingly, she managed to rush back.

Ying Zongtian brought Shui Lingling along and landed on the vast platform within a few flashes.

The Supreme Sky Prime sized Xiao Chen up and smiled. "Little Brother has rather good charisma. I was worried that you would not be able to handle the situation. It looks like my worries were for naught. I should tell you this: the Spirit Fox King is helping to delay the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign and Heaven Punishing Corpse God. I'm afraid that he might not be able to come."
