Chapter 1827 – Green Gemstone
Among the entire world of the Ancient Martial Divine Dao, there could only be two types of people who could make an Imperial Emperor open his mouth and call him Your Excellency.
One was an Imperial Minister who had assisted the previous generation of Imperial Emperors.
The other could only be a powerful martial artist who possessed outstanding cultivation and place in martial arts, and usually, it was a Totem-like existence at the level of Martial God who had such treatment.
At this moment, Xu Yang, as the opponent of the other party, was still being addressed as Your Excellency by this true Imperial Emperor, which was undoubtedly an absolute recognition of Xu Yang’s identity and strength as the Ninth Human Emperor.
Xu Yang also did not expect his experience in this empire to be so surprising.
In the end, he had created two emperors, one true and one false.
It did not take long after the Empress’ broken soul essence was completely accommodated into his soul world, the real Imperial Emperor in front of him finally let out a breath, finally put down a piece of playing stone in his heart, and what he had to do next was to reach an absolute alliance with Xu Yang’s team of three.
Xu Yang lightly smiled and shook his head.
”There’s no need to be polite, it’s just a matter of mutual benefit and cooperation between the two of you and me.
Next I have the intention of helping you reclaim the Emperor’s throne.”
The Emperor who had already regained his adult form in front of him, a pair of radiant eyes fiercely raised his eyes to meet Xu Yang’s gaze.
”Your Excellency, feel free to speak up, as long as it’s something I can do, I will do it with all my might.”
Xu Yang spread his hands, “You already know very well what I want, it’s the Violet Jade Crystals in the hands of that false emperor.
As well as the most precious metal materials within the entire empire, any precious materials that can be used to create divine weapons.
His Majesty the Emperor will prioritize providing them for me.
As for the high rank and salary, we are all from outside the party, so we will not consider it.
You should know very well that for us martial artists, those names in the mundane world don’t have any seductive significance at all.”
The old emperor was an understanding person gently agreed and nodded, suddenly he seemed like he thought of something palm gently waved, and then transferred the remains of that one heavenly tree that was previously bound together with his life force to his own front, and from amongst that pile of remains, took out an incomparably brilliant green gemstone.
”This is something I would like to give to Your Excellency Xu Yang as a gift of thanks for helping me out of my predicament.”
Xu Yang didn’t think much about it and resolutely received this brilliant green gem into his hands.
Not to mention the origin of this gemstone, but the incomparably pure and translucent primordial aura emanating from it.
It was enough to attract Xu Yang.
”The incomparably pure primordial aura of this gemstone, used to enhance the strength of the sword soul itself is definitely a very rare and valuable material, this gift has made me very satisfied, thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor.”
Xu Yang finished with a gentle wave of his palm, directly integrating this gemstone into his Emperor’s Cauldron, and directly began refining it without saying a word.
After resolving the other issues, Xu Yang was led by the old emperor.
With Long Kun and Broken Dawn, the two of them headed in the direction of the entrance to the Lost Mountain Range.
Now that the Return Stone Tablet had been shattered, the original barriers that existed in the entire Lost Mountain Range, as well as the Lost Path Formation, had completely lost their effect.
This path was no different from the route recorded on the map.
Taking out this drawing that marked the location of the Maze Mountain Range and glancing at it again, Xu Yang could not help but reveal a smile.
”I see, this map records the most authentic Lost Mountain Range.
From this point of view, it precisely proves that the owner of this drawing, that high and mighty old emperor in the palace, is indeed an impostor.
Because he is also the only one who is most aware of the true route trajectory of this place.”
Long Kun heatedly laughed after hearing his own boss say that holding his arms with a piece of grass in his mouth.
”It really should be that saying, fake can’t be real, real can’t be fake.
Disguise is certainly a very powerful skill, but if you can’t use it in the right way, sooner or later you’ll be exposed.”
Breaking Dawn also gently nodded in response to the opening.
”An empire built on a foundation of false rulers simply won’t go very far.”
Hearing all of this Xu Yang seemed to have been unintentionally prompted by the mention of his two personal companions, and thought of a much more serious problem.
”If that old man impostor is really thoughtful enough, he will definitely bury some secretly existing eyes in the vicinity of the Lost Mountain Ridge to beware of the Lost Mountain Ridge, the forbidden area amongst which will give birth to some unexpected changes.
We should be careful when we go back the way we came, and try not to reveal anything as much as possible.”
Unexpectedly, at the same time when Xu Yang had just voiced out his worries, dozens of fast martial artists suddenly appeared on both sides of the end of the jungle without any warning.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Yang, the three of them and the old emperor were surrounded by them.
It was worth mentioning that the leader at the head had an incomparably translucent silver-white water dragon wrapped around his body.
From the looks of it, it should be his personal battle pet, which was equally exceptionally powerful.
And this leader’s body was clad in golden robes.
A hexagram pattern was curled in the center of his forehead, and the color of this mark was clearly golden as well.
”Surprisingly, it’s a Martial God level believer!
Your Excellency is truly anticipating things like a god.
I guess this batch of people is that impostor amongst the palace streaming over here to spy on us.”
Breaking Dawn’s voice became extraordinarily cold.
At the same time, she sincerely began to admire this powerful ability of Xu Yang to foresee things.
No one in this world could be forewarned, but Xu Yang had done so with his superb control over the general environment and situation, often able to make the most precise situation captures before danger arrived.
As expected, as soon as Broken Dawn’s words fell, the mysterious man clad in golden robes at the head of the group in front of him released a hint of an icy smile.
”You guys guessed correctly.
In reality, His Majesty the Emperor has never truly trusted the few of you.
Ever since the moment Xu Yang left from the Imperial Palace with those few partners, every move you guys made to every place you visited was already within His Majesty the Emperor’s sphere of surveillance.
And we are the enforcers waiting here to prevent any change in the seal of the Lost Mountain Ridge’s forbidden zone.
But what really amazes me is that the three of you actually did this.
You have to know that the formation used to seal this old fellow is one of the most powerful forbidden ancient formations from the ancient times.
Even His Majesty the Emperor himself and his team of truly powerful believer guardians behind the scenes spent a great deal of effort to write the entire array pattern of that formation.
Now that it has been shattered so easily by a mere three of your human cultivators, I must admit that the strength possessed by you, the fellow called Xu Yang, should not be able to compete with you even if we look at the entire Ancient Ancient Divine Path.”
