The struggle for the Chaos Supreme Treasure could finally be considered concluded.
The Human Sovereign Pagoda had also returned to Ye Chen's hands. At this moment, it hovered above his head, thirty-three stories tall, with threads of primordial Chaos Qi flowing down from each layer. If it were to erupt fully, it would be enough to crush the entire continent, its power unimaginable.
"I never expected the Human King Pagoda to be the Human Sovereign Pagoda. It's quite a surprise," the Peacock King sighed with emotion. After briefly studying the Human Sovereign Pagoda, he returned it to Ye Chen.
Even though this was a supreme Emperor's weapon, a priceless supreme imperial treasure of the myriad realms, since it belonged to his brother, he harbored not the slightest trace of greed.
"Are you alright?" Ye Chen asked.
Earlier, when performing the Spatial Banishment, the Peacock King had suddenly coughed up blood, causing Ye Chen some concern.
The Peacock King shook his head, his smile brilliant. "It's nothing, just minor injuries from some backlash. It doesn't affect my foundation."
Then he added, "Qian Yue, what's going on with your body? It seems you can't use divine abilities or laws."
Ye Chen gave a rough overview of his physical condition. The Peacock King frowned, his handsome brows knitting together. "The law shackles on you now are far more difficult than they were back then. If you have no other matters, come with me to the Demon God Hall. It will be much safer for you to attempt a breakthrough there."
After a moment's thought, Ye Chen nodded. The Peacock King, as a supreme powerhouse of the demon race, stood high above others. It would indeed be much safer there.
Moreover, he recalled the dozen or so Heavenly Kings from the Ancient Divine Continent. They were likely subjected to the rules of the Ancient Emperor Continent and probably couldn't unleash their full Heavenly King-level combat power. Otherwise, they might be forcibly sent to the mysterious Divine Realm.
This was an important piece of information he had deduced. As long as they weren't using Heavenly King-level power, even if they were a dozen supreme powerhouses, he had no fear; they would find it difficult to harm him.
Furthermore, the demon race must have some trump cards left behind by Divine Spirits, perhaps even capable of killing Heavenly Kings. It was precisely based on this that Ye Chen dared to follow the Peacock King to the demon domain. Otherwise, he would be endangering the Peacock King, something he did not want.
Suddenly, Ye Chen remembered something and gave the Peacock King a mysterious smile. "Would you like to take on a disciple?"
"A disciple?" The Peacock King was slightly taken aback, then shook his head. "I haven't taken any disciples all these years. And you know the issues with my body. My cultivation method isn't suitable for ordinary people. If there's truly fine jade material, you should take them on yourself."
But Ye Chen laughed. "Don't worry. I can't say for sure about others, but this piece of fine jade is definitely suitable for you. Follow me."
Ye Chen took a step forward. His supreme golden Saint Body directly tread upon the void, his entire form like a streak of golden light flashing across the sky, swift as a golden lightning bolt.
The Peacock King followed, space laws flowing around him, harmonizing with heaven and earth, equally fast.
Whoosh—
The two were extremely fast. In almost the blink of an eye, they left the Peak of Fall and arrived outside the Hundred Battles Mountain Range, precisely in the area where the saints of the three races were gathered.
The sudden appearance of Ye Chen and the Peacock King, two Samsara-level supreme powerhouses, caused the saints of the three races to sense the vast, supreme pressure blooming in the void, their expressions changing one after another.
Especially the humans and the beast race. The supreme powerhouses of both races had been banished, and they had offended Qian, making the powerful of both races very worried, fearing Qian might take action against them.
If Qian truly intended to kill them, it was likely that even if all the saints of both races joined forces, they would be slaughtered, because Qian was too powerful, surpassing ordinary supreme powerhouses.
However, although a strand of astonishing aura emanated from Qian's body, there was not the slightest hint of killing intent. He merely swept his gaze over them, appearing indifferent and not paying them any mind. This allowed them to breathe a slight sigh of relief, though they also felt a sense of humiliation.
Because powerful as they were, high-ranking experts of their respective races, even Saint Lords, they had never been truly regarded by Qian, which was undeniably humiliating.
It was hard to say whether this feeling was relief or shame.
Suddenly, Ye Chen waved towards one person, his smile very gentle. "Miao'er, come here."
Among the human saints' camp, Xia Miao'er was momentarily dazed. At this moment, it was her gentle side that was present. Seeing Ye Chen's wave, she joyfully rushed forward. "Big Brother!"
"Miao'er—" The Sovereign of Lan Kingdom and Xia Bing'er were somewhat worried but dared not step forward.
"Big Brother, what do you need me for?"
Xia Miao'er was a little puzzled, but she knew Big Brother was very good to her and wouldn't harm her. Without any shyness, she grabbed one of his hands, her tender, beautiful little face blooming with a cute, innocent smile. Yet this caused many to suck in a cold breath.
Because all of this clearly indicated that this little princess of Lan Kingdom had a deep relationship with Qian.
However, Xia Miao'er kept hiding behind Ye Chen, secretly glancing at the Peacock King beside him. She felt a strange sense of familiarity with this handsome, pretty youth and couldn't help but pout her red lips, muttering, "Why do I feel a special closeness to this little brother?"
The Peacock King looked at Xia Miao'er, and suddenly, his eyes shot forth strands of brilliant light, filled with astonishment. "Qian Yue, could she be...?"
Ye Chen nodded. "That's right. Like you, she has a special dual-soul body. Miao'er, let the sister inside you come out."
Xia Miao'er looked at Ye Chen, then at the Peacock King, and nodded.
The next moment, her temperament changed drastically. No longer cute and innocent, she appeared powerful and cold, like an iceberg, indifferent and emotionless. Her gaze passed over Ye Chen and naturally fell upon the Peacock King.
At such close distance, she also sensed a strange similarity, vaguely feeling that this demon race supreme powerhouse seemed to be the same kind of person as her, which she found somewhat unbelievable.
The Peacock King's eyes shone with surprised divine light. He strode forward, somewhat shocked. "You... you truly have a dual-soul body?"
Xia Miao'er's cold, pretty face subconsciously stiffened slightly, then she nodded, not denying it, and looked at him with some wariness. "What do you want?"
Even though she knew this handsome, pretty youth before her was a demon race supreme powerhouse, it didn't mean she had to tremble in fear.
If the Peacock King attacked her, she would fight to the death no matter what.
The Peacock King wasn't offended in the least. On the contrary, he laughed heartily, filled with surprise and joy. "Little girl, don't worry, I won't harm you. On the contrary, let me ask you this: would you be willing to become my disciple?"
As his words fell, they left everyone from all three races dumbfounded.
The famous demon race supreme powerhouse, the Peacock King, actually wanted to take Xia Miao'er, a human, as his disciple.
It was like a magnitude ten earthquake, shaking the entire Hundred Battles Mountain Range three times over!
Moreover, this was the Peacock King's own, personal invitation. For a supreme powerhouse to speak so directly, probably no one in the world could remain unmoved.
