Even the Spirit King could not react to this sudden scene.

Who could actually save someone from his hands?!

He reached out his palm and sniffed it.

He instantly sensed a familiar aura.

The Spirit King suddenly looked in the direction of the City Lord Residence and shouted, “Heavenly Tree! It’s you!”

To be able to save someone from him, even if it was an unexpected situation, other than the Heavenly Tree, there was probably no one else.

However, there was no response from the tightly shut City Lord Residence.

The Spirit King was not angry. He only sneered in a low voice.

“Tsk tsk, you’ve just recovered a trace of consciousness, yet you dare to take such a risk and forcefully pass through my Netherworld to save people. I reckon that your willpower, which has not recovered much, is almost exhausted, right?”

“In that case, the time for you to fully recover will probably be delayed again. Isn’t this creating an opportunity for me?”

The Spirit King smiled faintly.

He actually did not care that the Second Commander and the others had been saved by the Heavenly Tree.

In fact, the Heavenly Tree had consumed a lot of energy, which delayed his recovery. This was what the Spirit King was happy to see.

As long as the Heavenly Tree had yet to recover, he could sweep through the Great Emperor’s City with this “borrowed” body!

What threat could the Second Commander, Chu Feng, and a mere group of Lesser Gods pose?

Kill them sooner or later. There was no difference.

They were just insignificant ants.

Looking at the tightly shut City Lord Residence in front of him, the Spirit King only sneered.

“Do you think I can’t do anything to you just because you’re hiding in the City Lord Residence?”

As he spoke, the Spirit King waved his hand.

The Yellow Spring of Hell that had just disappeared actually appeared again!

The energy was like surging waves that pressed towards the City Lord Residence!

It was as if it would crush the entire City Lord Residence in the next moment.

Although the City of the Great Emperor was magical, that was only in general.

The Netherworld Emperor did not spend much effort all of the countless buildings.

Even the City Lord Residence was the same.

After all, it was designed as a “consumable”, so it was naturally far from enough to resist an expert like the Spirit King.

Therefore, the next moment, the City Lord Residence was about to be destroyed by the Spirit King.

Suddenly, the words [City Lord Residence] on the plaque erupted with a dazzling light.

A powerful Great Emperor’s aura suddenly swept through the world.

The Spirit King was so frightened that his legs trembled!

“Netherworld… Netherworld Emperor?!”

The Spirit King looked around in fear. He really thought that the Netherworld Emperor had returned!

Although he usually looked down on the Netherworld Emperor, when he really sensed such a surging Great Emperor’s aura, the instinctive shock even made him unable to stand steadily!

After a long time, only then did he come back to his senses. Realizing that he was not injured at all, he came to a realization.

He stared fixedly at the plaque on the City Lord Residence.

“The Netherworld Emperor personally wrote this?! How is that possible?!”

“I heard that the Netherworld Emperor loved calligraphy and painting the most. It’s just that the rumors said that his works were horrible. How can the three words in front of me be written by the Netherworld Emperor?!”

The Spirit King had been in the River of the Netherworld for so long, so he naturally knew the Netherworld Emperor.

That was why he found it even more unbelievable.

As a result, he was not on guard at all in the beginning!

Even in the City Lord Residence, the Second Commander, who had just been saved, could not help but say, “I had never known that this plaque was not an ordinary item!”

“However, was this really written by the Great Emperor?”

The Seventh Commander added awkwardly, “It’s not like I haven’t seen the Great Emperor’s handwriting before. It’s just that… Ahem, this doesn’t look like it…”

At this moment, a graceful female voice slowly sounded behind everyone. There was a hint of helplessness in her tone as she said gently, “This is indeed not Huang Quan’s work.

“When the Great Emperor’s City was completed, Huang Quan knew that his expertise was limited. He was worried that he would be laughed at by many old friends, so he specially asked a good friend to write these three words to act as the facade of the City Lord Residence…

“I just didn’t expect that hundreds of millions of years later, he would actually save us because of this.”

Hearing this tactful voice, Chu Feng turned around in surprise.

There was only a towering tree there.

He really did not expect that such a majestic monarch of spiritual plants was actually a female!

He wanted to chat with her, but the Second Commander beat him to it.

“Madam, who is that good friend of the Great Emperor? Just his three words were enough to scare the Spirit King away!”

Other than the Heavenly Tree, who was the closest relative of the Netherworld Emperor, no one else would know such gossip about the Great Emperor.

The Second Commander naturally did not want to miss such an opportunity!

The graceful female voice did not put on any airs and said softly, “It’s the Nine Sabers God Emperor!”

“He’s also a peerless emperor!”

“Even Huang Quan feels inferior in front of the unique secret manual he created, the Nine Sabers.”

“The Emperor’s aura he left in the plaque can still easily intimidate the Spirit King even after hundreds of millions of years!”

“Of course, what makes Huang Quan the most indignant is that although he’s powerful in martial arts, he’s also proficient in the four arts. Unlike Huang Quan, he really doesn’t have these talents…”

At the end, there was even a hint of smile in her graceful voice.

He seemed to have recalled some embarrassing things about the Netherworld Emperor in the past.

The others could not help but grin.

Their Great Emperor was good in every way, but he really did not have much sense of art.

Hearing those words, Chu Feng raised his eyebrows.

He actually heard information of the Nine Sabers God Emperor here!

The Art of the Nine-wave Saber he cultivated was the foundation of the Nine Sabers, the ultimate technique!

Chu Feng had even planned to exchange for the Nine Sabers after comprehending the ninth slash and returning to Earth!

Suddenly, Chu Feng seemed to have figured something out.

No wonder that day in the study, he had only practiced the Art of the Nine-wave Saber before he obtained an original Great Emperor’s will!

So there was such a connection!

The Netherworld Emperor and the Nine Sabers God Emperor should have a good relationship.

There was a divine saber that was extremely similar to the Nine Dragons Saber in the Netherworld Emperor’s study. It might even be the Nine Sabers Divine Emperor’s saber!

Just as Chu Feng was guessing how close the Nine Sabers God Emperor and the Netherworld Emperor were…

Suddenly, the graceful voice pulled everyone’s thoughts back to reality.

The Heavenly Tree whispered, “Everyone, don’t let your guard down. Although there’s a plaque temporarily blocking the Spirit King’s path, it can’t stop him for a lifetime.”

“At this moment, the Great Emperor’s aura on the plaque has been activated by the Spirit King and is rapidly flowing away!

“The Spirit King naturally doesn’t dare to approach now, but once the Great Emperor’s aura is exhausted and there’s no longer the greatest threat, just the defense of the City Lord Residence won’t be able to stop the Spirit King…”

“Right now, I’ve only awakened a portion of my consciousness. I’ve just consumed more than half of it. I’m far from being his match…”
