Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Boom!

At the moment these two enormous energies collided, the world lost its color, and the sun and moon lost their light.

Two terrifying forces raged wildly in the void, shattering the surrounding space like fragile glass.

Countless fragments of space drifted in mid-air, like a strange spatial rain.

A massive shockwave swept in all directions, causing mountains to collapse and the earth to tremble violently, as if a magnitude nine earthquake had struck. Countless members of the Spirit Race were thrown back by the powerful blast, falling to the ground in a disheveled state.

As the aftershocks of the two palm strikes gradually dissipated, peace returned to the world. However, the destruction caused by that attack was still clearly visible. Within a radius of dozens of miles, not a blade of grass grew, mountains and rivers were shattered, and the scene was one of utter devastation.

Ling Yuan stared in disbelief at this astonishing scene, a hint of shock and fear flashing in her beautiful eyes.

"Who is it that could withstand a palm strike from Patriarch Gu Yuan?"

Ling Yuan's petite body trembled involuntarily, her voice filled with disbelief.

That's right, looking at the entire continent.

Very few people could withstand Gu Yuan's palm strike.

As the patriarch of the Spirit Clan, Ling Yuan is extremely sensitive to the aura of powerful individuals.

Ling Yuan could clearly sense that a terrifying aura, chilling to the bone, emanated from that spatial rift. That aura was so powerful that it was no less than that of Gu Yuan!

How could that be?

"It can't be"

Ling Yuan murmured something softly.

The other elders of the Spirit Race also looked horrified and began to discuss amongst themselves.

They never imagined that there would be someone on this Dou Qi Continent who could rival Gu Yuan.

However, unlike the shock of the Spirit Clan members, Hun Xuzi's sinister face revealed a look of wild joy.

"Chieftain, you've finally arrived!"

Hun Xuzi's eyes, usually filled with scheming, gleamed with excitement as he shouted.

Upon hearing this name, the enormous black flame body of the Void Devouring Flame trembled slightly, and it couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"The Soul Emperor has finally arrived."

"If you don't come soon, I'm afraid I'll die here."

A hint of relief flashed in his eyes, which were as deep as black holes, and his deep, hoarse voice carried a sense of relief.

"The Soul Emperor?"

Apart from Gu Yuan and Gu Fei, everyone present was stunned by the name.

This name has an influence on the Dou Qi Continent that is no less than that of Gu Yuan.

The name of the Soul Emperor is not to be trifled with.

The current patriarch of the Soul Clan, one of the eight ancient clans, and one of the five strongest warriors on the Dou Qi Continent a thousand years ago!

He is only one step away from reaching the Dou Di level.

Are two powerful figures about to meet in my Spirit Clan today?

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, a figure slowly emerged from the spatial rift.

The newcomer was tall and imposing, his long black robe billowing without wind, and surrounded by an eerie black mist.

In particular, his handsome face carried a hint of wickedness, and his deep, abyss-like eyes shone with a chilling light.

The moment the Soul Emperor appeared, the entire world seemed to fall silent.

His terrifying aura instantly enveloped the entire battlefield, and even the air seemed to freeze.

"Gu Yuan, I'm quite surprised you noticed so quickly!"

The Soul Emperor's gaze was sharp as he looked directly at Gu Yuan, a playful smile playing on his lips.

"Unexpected? It's more surprising that your Soul Clan was hiding..."

Gu Yuan remained expressionless, a hint of mockery flashing in his dignified eyes.

Upon hearing Gu Yuan's words, the Soul Emperor frowned slightly.

"Back then, the last patriarch of the ancient Devouring Spirit Clan was killed by your Soul Clan. I never imagined that he would be devoured by the Void Devouring Flame, thus granting the Void Devouring Flame the abilities of the Devouring Spirit Clan!"

Gu Yuan's voice was calm and even, yet it contained an astonishing pressure.

"No wonder, over the countless years, so many ancient races have declined, but your Soul Clan has remained prosperous."

As Gu Yuan revealed the secrets hidden by the Soul Clan one by one, the Soul Emperor's expression gradually became solemn.

A hint of surprise flashed in the Soul Emperor's deep eyes. He clearly did not expect that the Soul Clan's secret, which had been hidden so deeply, would be revealed by Gu Yuan in a single sentence.

They thought the Soul Clan's plan was flawless, but little did they expect that Gu Yuan would discover everything so soon after it began.

After this battle, the other ancient races will surely be on their guard, and finding such an opportunity again will be extremely difficult!

Just as the two top experts were locked in a standoff, a heartwarming scene unfolded on the other side of the battlefield.

"aunt!"

Lingxi's slender figure flashed like a white lightning bolt, instantly arriving beside the Linglu couple.

Her clear, beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and her voice was full of longing and worry.

"Xi'er!"

Upon seeing Lingxi, Linglu's beautiful eyes immediately welled up with tears of joy. She opened her arms wide and embraced Lingxi tightly.

You've grown up!

The deer's voice was full of doting affection.

"Xi'er, this time, your aunt and I almost never saw you again."

Ling Qingshan stood aside, watching the two embrace and weep, and gently patted Lingxi's shoulder.

"Aunt, Uncle, we were actually able to arrive in time thanks to Master."

"A few days ago, Xianle mentioned to Master Wushuang that I was feeling homesick. After hearing this, Master decided to bring me back to visit my family."

"Who knew we'd run into something like this? Seeing the situation was dire, Master immediately summoned Gu Yuan, the patriarch of the ancient clan, for assistance."

Lingxi wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said softly.

"Speaking of which, we really have to thank Young Master Gu Fei and his two children this time! If it weren't for them, I'm afraid my Spirit Clan would have..."

After listening to Lingxi's story, Linglu was deeply moved.

Linglu's voice stopped abruptly, a hint of lingering fear flashing in her eyes.

That's right!

If Gu Fei hadn't arrived in time, the Spirit Race might have truly been wiped out today.

Just then, a furious roar suddenly came from the sky.

"Soul Emperor, your Soul Clan is so despicable and shameless! I will expose this to the world!"

Ling Yuan's petite figure hovered in mid-air, her beautiful eyes flashing with angry flames as she pointed at the Soul Emperor and shouted fiercely.

"Ling Yuan, you don't need to take it so seriously. This was just a little joke."

Despite Ling Yuan's angry rebuke, the Soul Emperor remained unperturbed.

A hint of mockery flashed in his deep eyes, and a playful smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

This joke, though understated, is all the more real.

This continent has always been a place where the strong hold the highest positions!

Before a powerful figure like the Soul Emperor, the weak Spirit Race was nothing more than a pawn to be manipulated.

"A joke? My Spirit Clan was almost wiped out, and you're telling me this is a joke?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yuan trembled with anger.

"In this battle, countless members of my Spirit Clan suffered heavy casualties, and many of them bear the deepest hatred and blood feuds."

"Soul Emperor! The Spirit Race will never let your actions of today go unpunished!"

Ling Yuan's voice was filled with a deep-seated hatred.

"Heh, that depends on whether your Spirit Clan has the strength."

Seeing Ling Yuan's furious expression, the Soul Emperor smiled slightly. (End of Chapter)
