Good heavens, the ancestor has gone to confess his love again!

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Pingsheng casually made a gesture in the air.

hum-

A gentle and majestic golden light condensed from nothingness, and an ancient longsword quietly floated in the palm of the hand.

The sword's blade was as clear as jade, its light warm and gentle, without a trace of chilling killing intent. Instead, it was surrounded by a magnificent purple aura and a benevolent and virtuous charm. The runes were as fine as stars, and the whole body possessed a kingly power.

"Here, play with it as you like."

Xu Pingsheng smiled gently and handed the longsword to Xiao Meng'er.

Xiao Meng'er's eyes instantly lit up like stars, overjoyed. She gripped the sword hilt tightly with her little hands, and with a gentle twist of her delicate wrist, she gracefully twirled several beautiful sword flowers.

The clear, innocent cheers of children echoed throughout the hall:

"Yay! I have my own weapon now! Thank you, Daddy! Daddy's the best!"

The young girl was completely unaware of how eerie the atmosphere in the entire hall was at that moment.

Almost everyone's gaze was uncontrollably and involuntarily fixed on that long sword. A sense of submission, awe, and worship from the depths of their souls arose spontaneously, causing everyone to tremble and bow slightly.

They had only one thought in their minds:

Human Emperor's Sword?

Is it the Emperor's Sword they imagined?

If it's true...

That's really blown up today!

Even the usually calm and composed Meng Anran and Meng Luoli completely lost their composure at this moment, unable to remain calm any longer. They both stood up and stared intently at the long sword.

Meng Anran's breathing quickened slightly, her voice trembling with disbelief as she solemnly asked:

"My lord, this...this is truly the legendary Emperor's Sword?"

Xu Pingsheng remained calm, nodding slightly, as if he were merely discussing an ordinary toy:

"Yes, it is the one you are thinking of, the symbol of the supreme humanity and the rightful succession of the Human Emperor."

boom!!!

This short sentence was like a thunderclap from the heavens, resounding throughout the entire hall!

Oh my god!

Really!

It turned out to be true!

After a moment of deathly silence, a massive wave of excitement erupted!

Some say the Human Emperor Sword was forged by the first Human Emperor, while others say it was forged by the last Human Emperor in ancient times. But regardless of the reason, the Human Emperor Sword embodies the eternal fortune of the human race, and wielding this sword is recognized as the rightful heir of the human race!

Even without ascending to the throne of the Human Emperor, the sheer amount of human fortune bestowed by this sword is enough to cause a power's foundation to surge and its blessings to extend for generations.

Throughout history, those who dared to proclaim themselves emperors and rule over humanity were all extraordinary geniuses, yet in the end, they all suffered the backlash of the Heavenly Dao, meeting a tragic end, with none of them having a good death.

Some speculate that it is because they have not found the Human Emperor's Sword and have not gained true recognition from the origin of humanity!

Therefore, a proverb has been passed down among the people—

Only the one who obtains the Emperor's Sword can become the Emperor!

Inside the main hall, Elder Xu and the other elders stared intently at the long sword in Xiao Meng'er's hand, their eyes practically overflowing with covetousness.

Such an unparalleled opportunity, defying the heavens and spanning millennia, is right before their eyes; how could they possibly be willing to let it slip by?

Wielding the Emperor's Sword means you can show off for a lifetime!

"Is Old Deng pandering to the legendary Nuwa or the Goddess Houtu? He's proclaiming himself the Heavenly Emperor and casually pulling out the Human Emperor's Sword?"

They were completely baffled.

But one thing is certain: there are definitely some shady deals going on behind the scenes!

But what does this have to do with them?

Old Deng suffered so much, and his sons are determined to make him enjoy it in return!

Thinking of this, Elder Xu was the first to lose his composure. He raised his hand and summoned the supreme imperial weapon, the umbrella, which hovered in front of him. He suppressed his imposing aura, adopted a gentle demeanor, and smiled as he softly coaxed Xiao Meng'er:

"My dear Meng'er, I have a really cool umbrella here. It can shield you from the wind and rain and keep you safe. It's much more fun than your little sword. How about we switch?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Lao Er, Xu Lao San, and the others instantly flew into a rage.

"Brother Xu, have you no shame?!"

"You already possess an ultimate imperial weapon, yet you're still insatiable, attempting to seize the Human Emperor's Sword?!"

The elders knew perfectly well that Xu Laoda, wielding an imperial weapon, was floating around without any sense of reason.

If he were to seize the Emperor's Sword and inherit the orthodox destiny of the human race, and were to accidentally become the Emperor, how many good days would they have?

I'm so angry I could die!

Faced with the crowd's angry rebukes, Boss Xu remained calm, slowly and methodically putting away his imperial weapon umbrella, his face full of self-righteousness and self-assurance:

"In terms of seniority, I am the eldest son of the Xu family, and my status is the most esteemed; in terms of virtue, I possess both talent and virtue, am humble and courteous, and treat the virtuous with respect, and my character is flawless; in terms of heritage, I have guarded the family for many years and have made great contributions. Such a treasure that can protect the world should naturally be in my hands, so as to benefit the family and consolidate its foundation."

These shameless remarks enraged Xu Lao Er so much that his nose twisted and his chest heaved violently. He wished he could rush up and fight him on the spot.

"Shut up!!"

Xu Pingsheng raised his foot and kicked in mid-air, sending all the entangled and arguing rebellious sons flying several feet away, crashing heavily to the ground.

He sneered, "Hmph! Don't you even take a piss and look at yourselves in the mirror? You bunch of nobody like you are worthy of wielding the Emperor's Sword?"

"If someone were to ascend to the throne of the Human Emperor and wield this supreme treasure of humanity, it wouldn't be your turn! If anyone should be chosen, it would be my daughter, Xiao Meng'er!"

boom!

These words caused an uproar throughout the hall!

All the members of the Xu family and the people from the Guanghan Immortal Palace were filled with shock and their minds were shaken.

Throughout the ages, the throne of the Human Emperor has been reserved for men, bearing the legitimacy of the human race, and no woman has ever set foot on it!

Could it be that Xu Pingsheng is going against the will of Heaven today and will become the first female human emperor in all of history?

Amidst the shock, a sense of doubt arose in everyone's hearts.

The Human Emperor holds the destiny of the human race, suppresses evil spirits in the heavens, and establishes order for the human race. His title is far beyond that of an ordinary supreme ruler.

Without absolute power to suppress all ages, one simply cannot bear this title.

The ancestor insisted on becoming emperor, which has already been tainted by a great taboo. Now he wants to create a female emperor. Can he really hold everything firmly with his current strength?

at this time.

Xu Fan stepped forward, bowed deeply, and asked the question solemnly, his eyes filled with awe and excitement:

"Ancestor, may I ask what level your cultivation has reached?"

Xu Pingsheng's gaze fell on Xu Fan, looking at this most talented member of the Xu family, who had broken through to the late stage of the Saint Realm in just two years under the nourishment of a vast amount of natural treasures and the guidance of several Great Emperors of Yunmengze. A rare look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

"good."

"Although the Yunmeng Marsh doesn't have the Heavenly Dao's suppression like the Kunxu Realm, allowing for rapid advancement in cultivation through the nourishment of rare and precious materials, its foundation is ultimately unstable and still needs to be solidified!"

He made a casual comment, then changed the subject, his tone becoming calm and authoritative:

"As for the strength of your ancestor, me—"

"Realm, Quasi-Emperor Ninth Level!"

"In terms of actual combat strength, I reckon he could easily take on a Yin-Yang Emperor!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent once again.

Everyone in the hall froze, their pupils shrinking in shock, their minds blank, only those seven words echoing repeatedly—

A Quasi-Emperor at the Ninth Heaven, defying the Yin-Yang Emperor!

The difference between a Quasi-Emperor and an Emperor is like an insurmountable chasm, as vast as the difference between heaven and earth!

The Yin-Yang Emperor is a top-tier powerhouse who has truly ascended to the realm of the Great Emperor and wields the laws of a region. He is the only Great Emperor in the world, a being who stands above all living beings.

Even the strongest quasi-emperors are ultimately only halfway to the Dao and have not yet achieved imperial power!

The feat of a quasi-emperor defying an emperor is a miracle that has long been extinct throughout the ages. Only a few records remain from the ancient and immortal eras, and it is a miracle that exists only in ancient books and legends!

Although the ancestor once demonstrated the unparalleled miracle of activating a forbidden secret technique and instantly soaring to the ninth level of the Great Emperor realm, according to the ancestor, that secret technique could only be used once in a lifetime, and was a fleeting and illusory peak!

Everyone remembers that when the ancestor left Yunmengze two years ago, his cultivation was only at the first level of Quasi-Emperor.

In just two short years, the ancestor claimed that not only had his cultivation level skyrocketed to the peak of the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor, but he had also been able to overpower the Yin-Yang Emperor.

Anyone would find this unbelievable, right?

But if what the ancestor said is true, then wouldn't the Xu family be able to do whatever they want?
