CHAPTER 524: CHAPTER 524: DRAGON XUAN?

"With the death of Supreme God Sovereign, Jade Heavenly Venerable is next in line to rule the Supreme Forgetful Love Palace. The inheritance of the Ancient Clan can be continued more successfully, and I also avenged my master. Haha... It’s truly like hitting two birds with one stone."

Nine Soul clicked his tongue in appreciation, a hint of joy in his voice.

"The Nine Soul Emperor is truly lucky to have a disciple like you; he must be smiling in his afterlife," the Yoga Godlord commented sentimentally.

"You should say it another way..." Nine Soul glanced at Yoga Godlord, a trace of unspeakable pride leaking from the eyes behind his mask.

"A different way?" The Yoga Godlord hesitated slightly.

"You should say, the Nine Soul Emperor is really lucky to have met a chosen son of destiny like me," Nine Soul laughed heartily.

His voice was like a wild wave, causing the entire palace to resonate with its booming echo. With a flick of his finger, a spell shot through the air and vanished.

At the same time, in that valley, a dazzling silver light suddenly erupted, enveloping the entire valley like an unyielding iron barrier.

Seeing the formation that had suddenly appeared, Ye Yun’s expression changed slightly. What does this mean? Could it be that someone had set up a killing formation here, waiting for me? How could it be such a coincidence? By entering this valley, haven’t I just walked into a trap?

Ye Yun took a closer look and realized that this formation was extremely powerful, even stronger than the one that had confined the Black Dragon. It seemed that anyone below the Divine King Realm would find it difficult to survive within this formation.

Ye Yun’s face fell. At that moment, he instantly guessed the true target of the formation.

Such an unparalleled killing formation was naturally aimed at killing him—the so-called "Supreme God Sovereign."

Ye Yun couldn’t help but curse his bad luck. He was currently playing the part of the Supreme God Sovereign, and the one they wanted to kill *was* the Supreme God Sovereign. He was essentially taking the blame for the already deceased Supreme God Sovereign.

Just who wants to kill me...?

Ye Yun remained completely calm, staring at the formation with a cold expression. Unexpectedly, nine divine halos emerged behind his head.

Since he was pretending to be the Supreme God Sovereign, he naturally had to use Ten Thousand Changes at Heart to create the illusion of the Nine Divine Rings.

It gave the impression... that he was preparing to defend against the formation’s attacks.

Before Ye Yun could properly speculate, two figures suddenly flashed out of the void, materializing above the formation. His gaze narrowed slightly.

He saw that a masked man was standing beside the Yoga Godlord.

"Yoga Girl, what is the meaning of this? After inviting me all the way to the Yoga Master Palace, do you intend to kill me now?" Ye Yun asked gravely, raising an eyebrow.

"Supreme, are you not aware of what you did in the past? You deserve this fate," the Yoga Godlord sighed, her eyes as sharp as knives, fixed on Ye Yun beneath the formation.

Hearing the Yoga Godlord’s words, Ye Yun’s expression flickered, and his gaze shifted to the masked man beside her.

"How did you find out? Did this fellow tell you?" Ye Yun sneered.

In the past, the Supreme God Sovereign’s pursuit of the Nine Soul Emperor had been extremely secretive; even the Yoga Godlord had been kept in the dark. But now, she knew the truth. The masked man beside her must have been the one who told her.

But who was this man? Why was he so intent on killing the Supreme God Sovereign? Did the Supreme God Sovereign truly have such a terrible reputation?

Just as Ye Yun was lost in thought, the Yoga Godlord’s face turned cold and stern. She spoke with hatred in her voice, "Supreme, you would never have dreamed it, would you! The disciple of the Nine Soul Emperor has come to seek revenge on you today!"

The disciple of the Nine Soul Emperor? Hearing the Yoga Godlord’s words, a storm surged in Ye Yun’s heart.

Could it be Dragon Xuan? Thinking of Dragon Xuan, the two hundred and fiftieth Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect, Ye Yun seethed with anger. He wished he could beat the fellow senseless, then lock him up and subject him to a different torture every day. That brat practically dragged the Dragon God Sect into a fiery pit, leading to them being hunted for so many generations. If he hadn’t been resurrected from the Check-in Space and stopped Luo Li, the Dragon God Sect would have long since been disbanded.

"Nonsense! All of the Nine Soul Emperor’s disciples were killed by me. How could any have slipped through the net? Even if one did, his disciple wouldn’t have been able to cultivate to the Divine Sovereign Realm Tenth Layer Peak." Ye Yun glared, coldly observing the masked man.

He couldn’t confirm if it was Dragon Xuan yet. However, from the Supreme God Sovereign’s memories, Ye Yun knew that the Nine Soul Emperor had no living disciples. Therefore, he wanted to try and bluff this man in the Bronze Mask to reveal his origins.

"Supreme God Sovereign! You are indeed ruthless. You killed all of the Nine Soul Emperor’s disciples back then, leaving not a single one alive," Nine Soul said suddenly, his voice chilling.

Ye Yun frowned and asked, "Who exactly are you? I pursued the Nine Soul Emperor into the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon, where he eventually died. Could it be... you are a disciple he took in the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon?"

"That’s right. I am the disciple the Nine Soul Emperor took in within the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon. My name is Nine Soul! I laid this trap today to kill you and avenge my master!" Nine Soul declared loudly, his posture proud and upright.

After hearing this, Ye Yun’s expression froze, his eyes blazing with uncontrollable fury.

Nine times out of ten, this Nine Soul was Dragon Xuan, the two hundred and fiftieth Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect. This fellow had painstakingly schemed for so many years, laying down this inescapable killing trap, all to assassinate the Supreme God Sovereign. Such forbearance was truly terrifying.

After a few seconds of silence, Ye Yun looked at Nine Soul, his gaze filled with mockery. He suddenly chuckled and said, "Nine Soul... your master has been dead for hundreds of thousands of years. Why do you still insist on avenging him? Are you truly someone who respects their teacher and cherishes their teachings?"

His words, naturally, carried a double meaning.

This two hundred and fiftieth Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect had consumed all the Divine Dragon Essence Blood accumulated by the sect over generations. He had also provoked a powerful enemy, causing their weak successors to be hunted down generation after generation... The hardships and suffering involved in this process were simply beyond description.

Hearing Ye Yun’s words, Nine Soul’s anger flared violently. His eyes sharp, he proclaimed loudly, "As the disciple of the Nine Soul Emperor, avenging my master is my sacred duty!"

After speaking, he casually flicked his hand, sending out several spells.

WHOOSH! The great formation surged, its prowess intensifying. High above, on the dome of the formation, the seven stars of the Big Dipper suddenly materialized, radiating an immense killing intent.

SWISH! SWISH! Each star of the Big Dipper blazed with brilliant light. Suddenly, a sword descended from one of the stars.

This sword was crystal clear, radiating a terrifying aura as it stabbed directly towards Ye Yun. The other six large stars also shimmered with silver light, each seemingly containing a similar Star Sword within.

This treacherous disciple who dishonored his master and ancestors! Just wait until I break this formation; I’ll definitely give him a sound thrashing! Ye Yun suppressed his fury, cursing inwardly.

Watching the crystal-clear sword descend, Ye Yun’s expression became cold and emotionless, as if he had activated the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path.

WHOOSH! From the Nine Divine Rings behind his head, one Divine Halo flew out, colliding with the crystal-clear Star Sword.

Simultaneously, tiny runes, like minuscule stars, flickered within Ye Yun’s pupils.
