Villain: After I died, all the heroines cried themselves to sleep.

"Purple Emperor Dragon Fist!"

The purple-gold dragon, with its winding body, roamed between heaven and earth.

The entire venue was engulfed in chaos.

Faced with its raging power, all challengers were like ants, crushed to death by the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon and forcibly teleported out of the Tower of Babel.

"Who else!"

The purple-gold dragon returned and circled around Ye Chen.

He stood proudly on the arena, his Purple Extreme Sacred Body pushed to its limit, radiating a supreme purple-gold brilliance, exuding domineering aura.

"..."

The entire audience fell silent.

Those cultivators who had seen Ye Chen before looked on with surprise and uncertainty, their hearts filled with turmoil.

"Was Ye Chen really this strong?"

"Impossible. Although he was strong before, he was far from reaching this level."

"This invincible spirit... how similar it is to the great emperors in their youth! If this continues, he will probably be invincible among those of the same level."

Historically, almost every great emperor was like Ye Chen.

From a certain point in time, his strength completely surpassed that of his contemporaries, ultimately sweeping across an era and achieving an invincible imperial path.

Even the elders of the Three Sects and Four Holy Lands are paying attention to Ye Chen.

"This young man is named Ye Chen? Truly a peerless talent, each generation surpassing the last."

The True Man of Taixu in the Sacred Land of Taixu stroked his beard and sighed softly.

Although the Holy Son of Taixu at the lower seat was unwilling, he nodded in agreement.

"Master is right. Empress Xuan once said that Luo Tian Divine Son has the potential to become an emperor, but compared with Ye Chen, Luo Tian clearly lacks the aura of an emperor and is more like a whetstone before becoming an emperor."

Luo Tian had killed him during the Tower of Babel trial, and he held a grudge against him.

On the floating island of the Boundless Holy Land, the Boundless Holy Son touched his bald head, also adopting a look of watching a good show.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! This Ye Chen has an affair with the Holy Maiden of Tianxuan, and is the rival of the Divine Son of Luotian. The two are bound to have a battle, and the show is about to begin."

"Foolish child!"

The Boundless Venerable shook his head and suddenly gave the Boundless Holy Son a sharp rap on the head.

Back on the ring.

Ye Chen swept aside a group of challengers, establishing his own position.

With his peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, he ranked second only to Luo Tian among the Void Refinement Realm cultivators.

After a series of battles, his invincible spirit had become an unstoppable force.

"Luo Tian! Relying on the protection of the Xuan Tian Sect, you secretly instigated cultivators to harm me. Do you dare to fight me on equal footing!"

Ye Chen raised his head and loudly declared war on Luo Tian.

The sound traveled throughout the entire small world.

"What? The Divine Son of Luo Tian is secretly plotting to harm Ye Chen?"

Many people were shocked upon hearing this.

Given Luo Tian's unrequited love for the Holy Maiden of Tianxuan, and the Holy Maiden of Tianxuan's acquaintance with Ye Chen, various conspiracy theories gradually spread.

……

On the floating island of the Xuantian Sect, the Holy Maiden Tianxuan frowned and looked at Luo Tian.

"Senior brother, is what Ye Chen said true?"

"Senior sister, you actually believe that?"

The Holy Maiden of Yao Guang jumped out as if her hair had been blown out of shape, loudly cursing Ye Chen for being despicable and shameless.

"That's utter nonsense! He spends all his time with Senior Brother; he has no time to bother with that despicable Ye guy!"

"I didn't believe Ye Chen's words, and I also believe that my senior brother isn't that kind of person."

"Hmph, you'll regret this someday, Senior Sister."

The Holy Maiden of Yaoguang pouted and turned her head away with a grumble.

"Alright, Junior Sister Tianxuan and Junior Sister Yaoguang, stop arguing. I know you're both concerned about me..."

Luo Tian smiled and reassured the two who were having a cold war.

Compared to his two junior sisters who were fighting amongst themselves, he was actually more worried about the other side.

Luo Tian glanced at the person at the head of the table.

The Palace Master of Kaiyang Palace was cursing and swearing, his face flushed.

The Palace Master of Yuheng held his sword in front of him with both arms, sneering disdainfully.

Although Empress Xuan remained silent with an expressionless face, the oppressive atmosphere emanating from her was palpable.

She was very angry.

very angry.

How dare these insignificant ants slander her divine son?

The terrifyingly low pressure even made the Palace Master of Kaiyang's hair stand on end, as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water, and he calmed down instantly.

"Rest assured, Sect Master!"

Luo Tian stepped up from his seat and solemnly bowed to Empress Xuan.

"This disciple has acted uprightly and sat honestly. That Ye Chen is nothing but a clown who can't cause any trouble. Sect Master, your body is of noble status, how can you let such a petty person dirty your hands? This disciple will handle this matter and uphold the prestige of our Xuantian Sect."

"Um……"

Seeing Luo Tian's resolute attitude, Empress Xuan suddenly realized that she had made a big fuss over nothing.

She brushed a strand of hair aside to hide her embarrassment and smiled gently at Luo Tian.

"In that case, let the divine child handle it."

"This disciple will certainly live up to the sect leader's trust."

Luo Tian made a promise to Empress Xuan, and then walked out of the main hall with a righteous and awe-inspiring air.

……

Upon seeing Luo Tian appear on the arena, Ye Chen immediately perked up.

"So, those who've been hiding their true colors have finally dared to show themselves?"

Are you talking about yourself?

Luo Tian said calmly.

He gave Ye Chen a meaningful look.

"I think you've forgotten the pain of your past mistakes. Back then, you used the alias Chen Ye, hiding at the Peach Banquet, and were ultimately defeated by me. Now, this defeated foe dares to come back?"

Luo Tian's voice echoed in the small world.

"Ye Chen is Chen Ye, and Chen Ye is Ye Chen?"

Those cultivators who had attended the Peach Banquet immediately realized what was going on.

Unaware of the truth, onlookers gradually learned about this old story.

Unexpectedly, Ye Chen had already lost to Luo Tian Shenzi once.

"Luo Tian Divine Son truly lives up to his reputation as the number one of his generation. He defeated Ye Chen long ago and is a true candidate for the Great Emperor!"

"..."

Ye Chen gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly, his wounds reopened.

The invincible momentum was instantly shattered.

That was the shame of his life.

If he cannot wash away this shame from Luo Tian, ​​even if he becomes the Great Emperor, it will accompany him for the rest of his life and become an indelible inner demon.

"Enough talk! Let's see what we've got!"

Ye Chen gave a cold shout.

"That's true."

Luo Tianyun took a step forward with a calm and collected demeanor.

In the next instant, he crossed the void and appeared on the arena.

"If a lower-ranking person challenges a higher-ranking person, the higher-ranking person can propose the rules and conditions for the duel. If I were to use my cultivation level to suppress you, it would be an unfair victory. Therefore, we will do as you say and fight among those of the same level."

As Luo Tian finished speaking, an aura that surpassed all heavens appeared on the arena.

That transcendent aura entered Luo Tian's body, suppressing his cultivation level to the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm.

……

"Luo Tian, ​​times have changed. Prepare to be challenged!"

Ye Chen blasted the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon out with a single move.

"Purple Emperor Dragon Fist!"

"You never learn your lesson; you're not the only one who grows up."

Luo Tian calmly pinched his sword fingers together.

"Heavenly Lock Sword Formation - Prison of Heaven and Earth"

Thirty-six sword lights emerged simultaneously, transforming into divine chains that bound the purple-gold dragon.

The purple-gold dragon let out a mournful roar, twisting its body and struggling desperately, but it could not break free no matter what.

Seeing this, Ye Chen simply abandoned the Divine Dragon and instead unleashed a new ultimate technique.

"The Purple Star Decree—Heaven and Earth Change."

An illusory imperial edict appeared before him.

As the decree took effect, the entire world seemed to obey Ye Chen's command and choose to retreat.

The once stable prison of heaven and earth was destroyed.

"I know you have received the inheritance of Emperor Gouchen, but you have no idea what inheritance I have received."

Ye Chen summoned back the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon, and his aura surged higher and higher.

"Before me, your imperial legacy is utterly insignificant. I will become your greatest inner demon in this life!"

"Twenty-eight constellations, stars of the four directions, heed my command!"

"Purple Star Palace!"

A massive star palace descended from the sky.

The Twenty-Eight Mansions and the Four Divine Beasts are bestowed upon you.

At this moment, Ye Chen became the sole ruler of the world.
