Now, as Nangong Xue recalled the past, she remembered Ye Chen saying that so-called Divine Kings were nothing much in his eyes.
How laughable it was that she had thought he was just boasting back then, but now his words had come true—it really was like this.
Ancient Divine Kings truly didn't amount to much in his eyes.
Now, her heart was filled with intense regret.
Ye Chen looked at Ning'er again, dotingly saying, "Ning'er, do you want to become as powerful as them?"
Ning'er nodded heavily. "Yes."
"Good. From now on, by my side, you will become as powerful as them." He rubbed her beautiful hair again, chuckling.
Whoosh! Countless people present looked at Ning'er with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Even the Doumen Divine King and the Primordial Ancient Dragon were among them.
Although they had also received heaven-defying opportunities, they deeply understood that these opportunities were nothing compared to following by Ye Chen's side.
Only by following Ye Chen could one truly have the possibility of reaching the absolute pinnacle.
The Xue Sect members sighed upon seeing this. From now on, Ning'er had truly soared to the heavens in a single step.
As for Ning'er, she didn't know any of this. She only knew that being by Big Brother's side felt comfortable, and she liked this feeling—it was purely that simple.
As for whether she could become such a lofty existence, she wasn't actually that eager.
As for the likes of Qingtian Great Power, they could only look up to Ye Chen in awe, not daring to seek revenge.
Not to mention Gu Xuan, Ziguang Tian, Ren Jing, and others, who were filled with immense regret.
Back then, they could have befriended him, but they had ruined it again and again, missing the golden opportunity to truly soar to the heavens in a single step.
Moreover, from now on, Gu Xuan was no longer the successor of the Qinghua Sect.
To show goodwill to Ye Chen, Qingtian Great Power had ordered Gu Xuan expelled from the sect, making him a discarded pawn.
With this, the Peach Banquet officially came to an end.
Although Ye Chen had sent Sheng Xu fleeing in disarray and suppressed multiple super-powerhouses of the Holy Emperor Domain faction, including the Cangye Sovereign, he harbored little killing intent toward Blood Prison Divine King and others who had initially sided with the Holy Emperor Domain faction. In the end, they were merely coerced. He let them go, allowing them to leave.
Blood Prison Divine King and the others were extremely grateful, performing three bows and nine kowtows to thank Ye Chen before departing.
After finishing all this, Ye Chen asked the Doumen Divine King for a quiet place to cultivate in seclusion and instructed the Doumen organization to closely monitor the world's movements.
Since Tong Gu Divine King had spoken, the Supreme Inheritance would likely appear soon.
He needed to be the first to know any related information.
As for whether Sheng Xu had sent word to his elder brother, the Strongest Emperor Saint, Ye Chen wasn't sure. But to prepare accordingly, his strongest Dao Body—the reincarnation of the Great Emperor—remained stationed within the endless spatial turbulence, displaying boundless majesty at this moment, strictly forbidding all personnel related to the Holy Emperor Domain faction from entering the Weiyang Great World.
The Strongest Emperor Saint seemed unaware that Ye Chen was in the Weiyang Great World. He frowned at the sudden display of majesty from the reincarnated Great Emperor.
But coincidentally, he also didn't want the powerhouses of the Flame Emperor Domain faction entering the Weiyang Great World.
After the Peach Banquet, the Weiyang Great World was shaken.
Only then did the world learn that super-powerhouses from other worlds had long since descended silently into the Weiyang Great World, with some even secretly manipulating immortal forces and super-forces spanning the nine continents.
More importantly, most of these individuals from other worlds were existences surpassing even Ancient Divine Kings.
For a time, the entire Weiyang Great World was on edge, fearing these super-powerhouses might strike, shattering the entire world and causing the deaths of countless billions.
After all, even the legendary Ancient Divine Kings of old were far from being a match for such existences.
Fortunately, for now, these super-powerhouses from other worlds had not excessively interfered or acted against the Weiyang Great World.
Moreover, it was heard that the renowned Tong Gu Divine King had warned the super-powerhouses of both factions, preventing them from acting openly.
This allowed countless people to breathe a sigh of relief.
During this period, there were those who scoffed. A Quasi-Monarch from the Holy Emperor Domain faction, unaware of everything within the Doumen World and ignorant of Tong Gu Divine King's strength, acted recklessly. He swept across a continent, slaughtered nine Great Powers, suppressed that continent's Divine King, and massacred everyone, seeking to become the supreme overlord.
This incident immediately shook the entire Weiyang Great World.
It also alarmed the other super-powerhouses of both factions.
Naturally, this was tantamount to directly provoking Tong Gu Divine King. He struck, spanning over hundreds of millions of miles. Sovereign-level rules transformed into a heaven-piercing war spear that, in less than a blink, tore through the vast sky, piercing through that Quasi-Monarch of the Holy Emperor Domain faction like lightning and nailing him to the highest point of the heavens.
The war spear trembled, and the Quasi-Monarch was utterly shattered, directly perishing, body and soul annihilated, with phenomena instantly arising.
But all of this was erased by Tong Gu Divine King.
Subsequently, Tong Gu Divine King struck like thunder, rooting out five super-powerhouses of the Holy Emperor Domain faction lurking on several continents—all Quasi-Monarchs—and annihilated them in the same manner. Not a single one could withstand a single blow from him.
Only then did the world learn overnight that Tong Gu Divine King, born in the Primordial Era and hailed as the most ancient in the world, was a peerless powerhouse surpassing Divine Kings.
However, this action undoubtedly directly enraged the other super-powerhouses of the Holy Emperor Domain faction within the Weiyang Great World.
After all, the Ancient Monarchs of the Holy Emperor Domain faction who had descended into the Weiyang Great World were not limited to Sheng Xu, the Black Dragon Ancient Lord, and the Cangye Sovereign; there were others.
Among them was Yun Tianjun.
That day, he had attempted to force his way into the Doumen World but was directly blasted away by Tong Gu Divine King, disappearing without a trace.
That time, he had been caught off guard. Moreover, only Sheng Xu had escaped in disarray that day, and he hadn't spread any related information, so Yun Tianjun had no idea it was Tong Gu Divine King who had struck.
At the time, Yun Tianjun merely thought he had offended an Ancient Monarch of the Flame Emperor Domain faction, which was why he refrained from entering the Doumen World again.
But while he might have some wariness toward the super-powerhouses of the Flame Emperor Domain faction, he held little regard for the Weiyang Great World itself.
On this day, witnessing the super-powerhouses of the Holy Emperor Domain faction being killed one after another, Yun Tianjun—one of the Ancient Monarch commanders of the Holy Emperor Domain faction—directly erupted in fury.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Monarch heavenly might erupted, instantly giving rise to infinite heavenly wrath phenomena. Extraterrestrial stars vanished, the sun was extinguished, the bright moon collapsed, and massive super-continents descended from the heavens, crashing down upon the earth, and so on.
Various phenomena manifested as if doomsday had arrived, vast and mighty, inundating all directions. Fully half of the Weiyang Great World felt terrifying tremors.
The people gazed up at the apocalyptic phenomena continuously appearing in the heavens. Billions of living beings trembled in fear, with some even scared to death on the spot.
