Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 13 May Be Away for a Long Time

God’s Palace was now the number one force of the Human Clan on the Eastern Continent.

In the current Heaven Path world, there were four incomparably powerful forces. The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was the top sect of the six paths. It was also the place where Ding Hao first became famous. Over the years, it had cultivated countless god-level and immortal-level masters. Naturally, it was the head of the four forces.

In addition, it was founded by Mu Tianyang and once stunned the entire continent. Now, the White-Robed Divine Palace, whose strength was still rising, guarded the Central Continent and occupied one of the top four places.

Heaven Sect, the holy land of the Human Clan in the Southern Wilderness, had always been very powerful, especially after Ding Ke’er took charge of the sect. Its whole strength suddenly erupted, and it stood side by side with the White-Robed Divine Palace on the Central Continent. Its power ranked among the top.

Of the four major forces of the Heaven Path, the remaining one was undoubtedly God’s Palace on the Eastern Continent..

The current God’s Palace was no longer controlled by the Ding Clan. The current master of God’s Palace was Hua Mojian.

No one had ever thought that this man, who came from a merchant family, could take charge of God’s Palace, which had been famous in the Land of Divine Grace. His position as the God Emperor had been personally granted by Ding Hao.

It turned out that this rising star did not disappoint Ding Hao. In the years when Ding Hao served as the God Emperor, Hua Mojian’s reputation had been well-known to all. The nice titles of “Young King”, “Little Ding Hao”, “Third True Immortal of God’s Palace”, etc. had already brought him great glory.

This young man didn’t come from the Ding Clan. Not only did he have powerful strength, but he was also highly respected as a great leader. He deserved to be the God Emperor of God’s Palace.

Over the years, God’s Palace had been growing more and more powerful, and everyone could see that the new God Emperor had extraordinary strength.

When Ding Hao appeared in the Divine Capital, he was not in a hurry to see Hua Mojian and the others. Instead, he first inspected the current situation on the Eastern Continent.

Ding Hao stood in the void and looked down at the vast Divine Capital.

Compared to the past, the current Divine Capital had not changed a lot.

Suddenly, a bell tolled.

The wind and clouds suddenly changed, and Qi surged.

The citizens of Divine Capital were surprised. They looked up.

The originally sunny sky suddenly seemed to be covered by extremely dense dark clouds.

Upon closer inspection, they found that it was not dark clouds that covered the sun. Instead, it was a vast army of God’s Palace, neatly arranged in the sky. Such a large-scale army was something that no one in Divine Capital had ever seen.

At this moment, a ray of golden light flashed down from the army, and it shot violently onto a street in the capital.

The golden light was very powerful, but it didn’t cause any damage.

A majestic aura instantly filled the entire capital.

Someone exclaimed, “It’s the God Emperor!”

God Emperor Hua Mojian was another legend on the Eastern Continent. He was the idol of many.

Everyone immediately recognized that this man was the God Emperor of God’s Palace on the Eastern Continent.

“Heavens, why would the God Emperor be here?”

The person in front of them was wearing a golden battle robe, and there was a faint aura of an emperor between his eyebrows, which gave people the feeling that he was the king of the world.

Everyone fell to their knees in unison.

To everyone’s surprise, the supreme God Emperor in front of them was standing in front of a certain man.

Then, the God Emperor bowed deeply to the person before him with great respect.

That was unbelievable. What exactly was going on?

Not only God Emperor Hua Mojian but also the soldiers in the air all knelt and shouted loudly, “Greetings, Imperator Ding!”

Hundreds of thousands of people had gathered in Divine Capital, and they all knelt.

Only one person was left standing.

People who didn’t know what was going on secretly looked up and saw a man in a cyan robe standing in front of them.

“A cyan robe?

“This man is Ding Hao!”

Many people had already realized what was happening.

Except for the supreme master Ding Hao, who else would be qualified to make the God Emperor bow to them like that?

In an instant, the sound of kowtowing and greetings rose and fell.

Ding Hao stepped forward to help Hua Mojian up. He then waved his hand and said simply, “Everyone, please rise!”

His voice echoed throughout Divine Capital. His tone was extremely calm, and it also contained a supremely dignified aura. After listening, everyone had their own different insights.

In a flash, Ding Hao and Hua Mojian, as well as the army, disappeared from the Divine Capital.

The sunlight once more lit up the land, and everyone felt that the sun was now even more dazzling.

“Senior Ding, I just came back from a remote place in the far east and failed to welcome you in time. I hope you can forgive me!”

Hua Mojian returned to God’s Palace with Ding Hao. He blamed himself for not being able to welcome Ding Hao right away.

“It doesn’t matter. I just came over on the spur of the moment. Besides, I heard that you went to support the people at the border. It’s a blessing for God’s Palace to have such a wise emperor on the Eastern Continent.” Ding Hao’s words were full of approval.

The stubborn child of the past had now become an emperor that countless people looked up to.

When Hua Mojian heard Ding Hao’s words, he was overjoyed.

He had always regarded Ding Hao as his role model and idol. Among all the previous titles, he was most pleased with the “Little Ding Hao”. He had also been working hard to learn from Ding Hao. Now that he had been praised by his idol in person, how could he not be overjoyed?

“If it weren’t for your care, I wouldn’t have achieved so much today,” Hua Mojian said modestly.

Hua Mojian was now the God Emperor, and his cultivation had reached the True Immortal Realm. Ding Hao was indeed the one who had helped him a lot to achieve such an achievement. Not to mention the fact that Ding Hao had abdicated and made Hua Mojian the God Emperor, it was Ding Hao who had guided him to learn martial arts back then.

“Everything is destined. You made all of this happen,” Ding Hao said. “I see that the Taoist technique of the Southern Underworld Ignis is popular on the Eastern Continent now. It seems that you have great attainment in the management of the country and cultivation.”

Ding Hao was very satisfied with everything he had seen on the Eastern Continent this time.

It could be seen that Hua Mojian indeed ruled the country well.

“It’s all thanks to the Divine Princes’ guidance that I can make some achievements in the management of the country.” Hua Mojian did not take credit. Instead, he placed the credit on Ding Xinghua and the others.

“Well, the country is prosperous and the people are safe, and the Southern Underworld Ignis technique has been spread. Your master would be gratified in the netherworld,” Ding Hao said softly.

Hua Mojian’s eyes flashed at this time, but he didn’t answer.

The two chatted about the situation on the Eastern Continent for a long time.

Then, Ding Hao went to a secluded place near the divine mountain.

…

Mount Green was a green mountain of medium height that was just beside the divine mountain. It didn’t look as majestic as the divine mountain, but it had its unique solemnity and mysteriousness.

Mount Green was shrouded in clouds all year round. Although it was located in Divine Capital, it wasn’t noisy at all, as if it was hidden in the city.

This place was filled with the aura of the earth, which was the most suitable place for secluded cultivation.

Several of Ding Hao’s uncles, as well as his cousins Busan and Busi, lived here in seclusion.

Now the general trend of the world had been established. These former Divine Princes and Divine Sons had all experienced wars and massacres. They had already seen through the power struggles and no longer strived for those worldly things.

Although the Ding Clan did not take the throne of God’s Palace, as long as Ding Hao was there, the Ding Clan’s prestige would be extremely stable.

Moreover, Hua Mojian was very respectful to the Ding Clan. The influence of the Ding Clan between heaven and earth was still deep-rooted. There was nothing for the Ding family members to worry about at all.

At this time, they could put their minds on cultivation and family affection, and they lived a more carefree life.

The future of the Ding Clan was no longer about getting power.

Ding Hao came to this quiet place. Even though he had hidden his aura, Ding Busi was already waiting for him not far away, as if he could sense his bloodline.

As soon as he saw Ding Hao’s figure, Ding Busi shouted in a deep voice, “Father, Fourth Uncle, Ninth Uncle, Big Brother… Little Hao is here!”

Immediately, Ding Busi rushed over excitedly and gave Ding Hao a big hug. Ding Busi was already in his 200s and still looked like a young man.

Ding Hao was not surprised. That was what his cousin was like.

Ding Busan followed closely behind and came to Ding Hao. His greeting was more reserved. He just gave Ding Hao a look with a smile on his face. In fact, this was already his most enthusiastic way to express himself.

Ding Hao gave him a look in return, which was a silent greeting.

Then, Ding Hao’s uncles also came out.

“Hao, you’re here!”

“Third Uncle! Fourth Uncle! Ninth Uncle!” Ding Hao greeted them one by one.

Ding Hao looked at the crowd carefully. There was not much change compared with the last time. There was only a little more charm in their expressions, which was completely different from Qi.

They all rode on clouds to come here. If ordinary people saw them, they would really think that immortals had descended and would probably kowtow and worship.

“How did you know I would be here?” Ding Hao asked.

He seemed to be a little confused about the crowd’s waiting.

“Haha, I’m surprised that you didn’t know this, Imperator Ding!” Ding Busi seemed to have spotted something interesting and teased Ding Hao,

Ding Hao’s face showed a helpless look.

His uncles smiled and didn’t speak.

Ding Busan, who had always been quiet, was the first to speak. “In the morning, tens of thousands of people worshiped in Divine Capital. There must be a big shot coming to make such a sensation. Mojian the God Emperor has sent someone to inform us.”

Ding Busan was still calm when he spoke.

Ding Busi originally wanted to keep Ding Hao guessing, but he didn’t expect that he would be betrayed by Ding Busan. He gritted his teeth with hatred, but he changed his mind very quickly. He grabbed Ding Hao’s hand and walked up the mountain while telling him about some of his adventures during the years of traveling in the world.

Ding Hao’s uncles smiled and went back to their residence on the mountain together.

These people were Ding Hao’s close relatives. It had been many years since they last met, and they really had endless things to say.

Ding Hao stayed there for three days and had a good gathering with his uncles and cousins.

On the night of the third day, they set up a banquet and chatted happily while drinking wine. They talked about many interesting things in the past.

During the banquet, someone mentioned Ding Tong.

The happy scene suddenly became quiet.

Ding Tong, who had half of the bloodline of the Ding Clan flowing in his body, was the enemy of the Ding Clan. They had not heard from him for a long time. If someone had not mentioned him, everyone would have almost forgotten about him.

After so many years, Ding Tong had not shown up. As far as everyone knew, he would definitely try his best to take revenge. Thinking of Ding Tong, the extremely terrifying master, they vaguely felt that he would be a hidden danger.

But on second thought, they changed their opinions. With Ding Hao’s current strength, what could Ding Tong do to him after losing the Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate?

Ding Hao also found it strange. With his current strength and influence, he failed to find Ding Tong in the vast world. Even Roundie and Squarie could not track Ding Tong’s whereabouts with their divination skills.

Ding Hao had once promised the Fake God Emperor that he would let Ding Tong go.

Therefore, in fact, over the years, Ding Hao had not investigated it deeply and had not deliberately tried to capture Ding Tong.

“I’ll let him survive on his own.” Ding Hao thought.

“Hao, are you planning to do something?” Ding Xinghua suddenly asked, “You’ve been here for so long this time. Are you here to say goodbye to us?”

Ding Hao nodded and said, “Yes. I may be away for a long time.”
