CHAPTER 1048: CHAPTER 1045: THE FOUR SYMBOLS AZURE DRAGON

The east of the Crow Grave.

The Azure Dragon Crow Grave is located at the farthest east.

The Four Symbols Spirit, with the Azure Dragon residing in the east, encompasses the seven lodgings of the Azure Dragon among the Twenty-Eight Star Constellations.

The Azure Dragon Crow Grave is undoubtedly one of the oldest overlords of the Crow Grave, immensely powerful.

His revival was something no one in the Crow Grave anticipated.

Neither Hei Shui nor the Corpse Demon expected this, thus they suffered greatly.

The Corpse Demon was not too bad off, seeing the unfavorable situation, he directly chose to submit.

But the unfortunate Hei Shui was ripped into five pieces by the Azure Dragon and suppressed in various spots, not knowing when he might recover.

At this moment.

At the location of the Azure Dragon Crow Grave.

The Corpse Demon was reporting the trajectory of Ye Xuan and his group.

When mentioning the White Bone Dharma’s submission, the Corpse Demon remained deeply shaken.

Baishan could be let go.

Among the three revived ancient grave crows, he was definitely the weakest existence.

The Corpse Demon knew fully well what kind of existence the White Bone Dharma was.

Yet even such an existence bowed down voluntarily before Ye Xuan, which was truly hard to believe.

Here, a point must be stated.

Even though Baishan was the weakest among the three revived ancient grave crows, the former four overlords of the Crow Grave were still no match for him.

"Master..."

"That young man is the Undying Night Emperor."

The Corpse Demon gritted his teeth and finally reported this news to the Azure Dragon.

He was now a bit afraid that the Azure Dragon might also fall into trouble unknowingly.

Neither Baishan’s death nor White Bone Dharma’s submission seemed to have caught the Azure Dragon’s attention, disconnected as it appeared.

This made the Corpse Demon a bit uneasy.

After all, what they faced was the Undying Night Emperor.

To take it lightly like this might spell trouble.

"Among the River of Time, Emperors are as countless as the stars; by your words, perhaps this Undying Night Emperor shines brighter among them, but nothing more..."

On the tombstone of the Azure Dragon Crow Grave, the old crow slowly opened its eyes, and within them lay endless antiquity.

The Corpse Demon, upon hearing this, was momentarily lost for a response.

The Azure Dragon glanced softly at the Corpse Demon and said in a gentle tone, "You need not worry about your companion Hei Shui’s suppression by myself, for my revival required one to be suppressed."

The Corpse Demon felt speechless to the extreme.

Aren’t you simply saying you needed to suppress an overlord to announce your revival...

"You guessed correctly, I merely borrowed Hei Shui to declare my revival." The Azure Dragon said faintly.

The Corpse Demon was startled; he hadn’t said anything yet the Azure Dragon knew his thoughts?!

The Corpse Demon hurriedly said, "As the oldest overlord, it is only right for you to act as you see fit."

The Azure Dragon ignored the Corpse Demon and slowly closed its eyes.

For the Azure Dragon, whether the Corpse Demon spoke falsely or flattered did not influence his mindset.

After all, he had lived for too long, seen too many things.

In his eyes, only the Vermilion Bird, Xuanwu, White Tiger, and the oldest batch of ancient grave crows were of note.

The rest... were merely rubble.

Time passed slowly.

Three days later.

Around the Azure Dragon Crow Grave, all the Crow Graves awoke, opening their eyes to look towards the west.

There, two powerful domineering auras approached swiftly.

They could sense that these powerful domineering auras belonged to the western overlord Emperor Mo and the southern overlord East Emperor.

"Have they come..."

The Corpse Demon also opened his eyes at this moment.

Not only that, the Corpse Demon’s true body also sat up at this moment.

It was an old man like a dried corpse, with Corpse Energy swirling around him.

The Corpse Demon stood on the tombstone, looking into the distance.

Soon.

The two enormous figures descended.

Emperor Mo.

East Emperor.

Looking at these two former ’companions’ as overlords, the Corpse Demon’s gaze appeared somewhat complex.

They really dared to come looking for the Azure Dragon...

Just this courage alone made him feel inferior.

Among the former four overlords, he was the weakest.

This was widely acknowledged.

Yet the Corpse Demon also had his pride.

Only in this Crow Grave upheaval did he seem the least spirited.

Though Hei Shui was suppressed, he had still exchanged blows with the Azure Dragon, defeated yet honorable.

Though Emperor Mo was defeated, he fought to earn Baishan’s scrutiny.

Though East Emperor was pursued, he dared to resist.

Only he did nothing, choosing to submit to the Azure Dragon directly.

In comparison, he seemed more like a cowardly betrayer.

Despite the Corpse Demon comforting himself: The Azure Dragon is one of the oldest Crow Graves; no one can contend with him, and choosing submission is the wisest choice.

Yet the Corpse Demon always felt he was much weaker than the other three.

He knew he had lost his fighting spirit...

Eventually, the Crow Grave would see other upheavals.

But in those upheavals, perhaps the other three would grow stronger while he could only look at their backs.

"No."

He shook his head, dispelling the complex emotions from his mind.

He watched as Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei disembarked from Emperor Mo’s back, clarity returning to his eyes.

"Night Emperor, you truly have come."

The Corpse Demon spoke gently.

"You are not qualified to speak." Ye Xuan glanced lightly at the Corpse Demon, speaking softly.

The Corpse Demon’s eyes narrowed, and he said coolly, "I now represent Elder Azure Dragon."

"Emperor Mo." Ye Xuan called softly.

Emperor Mo’s eyes turned frigid and swiftly made a move.

Boom!

Emperor Mo transformed into a black arc, charging at the Corpse Demon.

The Corpse Demon spread his wings.

"Caw Caw————"

An endless number of crows appeared, Corpse Energy surged, akin to thousands of massive waves crashing.

Black aura spun around Emperor Mo, whirling in the heavens, dispersing all Corpse Energy as well as scattering the crows, which then transformed back into black aura, re-condensing into crows, charging back at the Corpse Demon.

"Attack together!"

The Corpse Demon shrieked fiercely.

Caw Caw Caw————

In an instant, crows from all directions took flight.

All these Crow Grave crows responded to the Corpse Demon’s call, besieging Emperor Mo.

But who was Emperor Mo?

The former leader among the four overlords, even when faced with the combined assault of East Emperor, Hei Shui, and Corpse Demon, he could still remain undefeated.

Even now, deeply encircled, he still displayed supreme overlord demeanor, leaving the enemies utterly defeated.

Though aided by the Crow Grave crows, the Corpse Demon still remained disadvantaged, appearing rather embarrassed.

"Night Emperor, I should assist Emperor Mo."

East Emperor said a word, then soared up, intending to quickly suppress the Corpse Demon.

Boom!

But at this moment, the Azure Dragon Crow Grave awakened, the Azure Dragon opened its eyes, and without any visible movement, East Emperor’s figure was suddenly sent flying back.

Flying directly over Ye Xuan’s head, he crashed onto the ground, leaving a massive trail on the earth.

The Azure Dragon did not look at East Emperor, instead, its gaze fell on Ye Xuan, speaking gently: "Are you the young one called the Undying Night Emperor?"
