Chapter 3383 - Xue Hong Yu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Boundless Heaven

The name of the Heavenly Boundless Heaven was Xue Hong Yu. Despite his feminine-sounding name, he was rather manly. He was initially a sectless cultivator. Apart from his abilities, his current achievements could be attributed to luck as well. He had run into many fortuitous encounters, allowing him to climb to his current height. However, his innate talent was not high, and it was almost impossible for him to progress any further. Therefore, he usually paid many visits to other Heavenly Emperors to build good relationships. He was hoping to use the connections to intimidate others and discourage them from having thoughts about usurping his position.

“Duan Ling Tian has returned?” Xue Hong Yu was naturally furious when he had been informed by his grandson that Duan Ling Tian, who released a titled Celestial Emperor he captured in the past, had returned to the Heavenly Pool Palace in the Boundless Heaven. Although he did not care much about the prisoner, Duan Ling Tian’s action was tantamount to challenging his dignity. It was unfortunate that Ji Yu Nian, the Grand Elder of the dragon clan, had intervened, and by the time he arrived, Duan Ling Tian had already escaped. If Ji Yu Nian was only the Grand Elder of the dragon clan, he would have vented his frustration on Ji Yu Nian and beat Ji Yu Nian up even if he could not kill Ji Yu Nian. After all, apart from being the Grand Elder of the dragon clan, Ji Yu Nian was also the direct descendant of a Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm. Most importantly, that Heavenly Emperor was far stronger than him, and he had also painstakingly built a good relationship with that Heavenly Emperor. For this reason, he did not dare to get into a conflict with Ji Yu Nian.

As he flew toward the Heavenly Pool Palace, Xue Hong Yu muttered to himself, “Previously, you had Ji Yu Nian’s help. Let’s see who’s going to help you now that Ji Yu Nian isn’t here…”

Xue Hong Yu had been vexed by his inability to take action previously. Now that he found out Duan Ling Tian had returned to the Heavenly Pool Palace with a helper who was stronger than his grandson, he was eager to rush over to settle accounts.

“So what if you have a helper who’s stronger than my grandson; can he contend with me?” Xue Hong Yu sneered.

Although Xue Hong Yu was ranked at the bottom among all the Heavenly Emperors of the 81 Devata Realms, he was still confident about facing a titled Celestial Emperor. After all, he was still the Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm no matter what. Heavenly Emperors, in general, were much superior to titled Celestial Emperors. Even compared to the strongest titled Celestial Emperors, a Heavenly Emperor would still have an edge.

Soon enough, the Heavenly Pool Palace appeared before his eyes. In the past millennium, this was his second visit to the Heavenly Pool Palace. Similar to his first visit, his second visit was also because of Duan Ling Tian.



In the Heavenly Pool Palace.

Apart from Xu Ya Si, everyone felt that Duan Ling Tian was being too stubborn for his own good. In their opinion, if he did not seize the chance to flee now, he would no longer be able to flee even if he wanted to once the Heavenly Emperor of the Boundless Heaven arrived.

Inside Heavenly Pool Palace.

No matter how many times they urged or pleaded with him, Duan Ling Tian remained firm in his decision to stay. All he did was told them not to worry. However, how could their worries be so easily assuaged? Nevertheless, they could stand and watch anxiously.

At this time, Elder Huo looked up and muttered, “He’s here…”

As soon as Elder Huo’s voice fell, a figure appeared in the sky; it was an old man dressed in a silver long robe.

The old man was of medium height, and he had long hair that draped on his back. The trimmings of his fine silver robes were gold; the robe was exquisite. Despite his white hair and eyebrows, his face that slightly resembled that of a sage looked like he was 40 or 50 years old at most.

“Greetings, Grandfather!” You Feng Yu called out immediately and bowed respectfully as soon as Xue Hong Yu appeared.

The titled Celestial Emperors of the Heavenly Pool Palace followed suit and bowed as they greeted Xue Hong Yu respectfully, “Greetings, Lord Heavenly Emperor!”

Two people stood closely at Xue Hong Yu’s back: an old man and an old woman. They stood with their backs straight like palace attendants. These two were the strongest titled Celestial Emperor in the Heavenly Palace of the Boundless Heaven. Needless to say, both of their strengths were superior to You Feng Yu’s strength. Nevertheless, even if they combined forces, they were still not a match for Xue Hong Yu.

‘So the name of the Heavenly Emperor of the Boundless Heaven is Xue Hong Yu…’ Elder Huo had sent him a Voice Transmission, revealing Xue Hong Yu’s name.

“Lord Heavenly Emperor!” Even Xu Lang bowed and greeted Xue Hong Yu respectfully.

Following in his footsteps, Xu Lang’s other disciples bowed and greeted Xue Hong Yu respectfully.

Xu Ya Si was the only one who stood stall, showing no sign of submission.

‘It’s over! It’s really over for Little Junior Brother!” Hong Fei, Duan Ling Tian’s Sixth Senior Brother thought to himself. He could not help but feel annoyed that Duan Ling Tian did not heed their advice. He could not understand why Duan Ling Tian did not seize the chance to flee earlier.

Apart from that, Xu Lang and his other disciples all had unsightly expressions on their faces at this moment. What could they do to help now that the Heavenly Emperor of the Boundless Heaven, the person who controlled the Boundless Heaven, had arrived?

Xue Hong Yu’s eyes immediately found Xu Lang first. He said somberly, “Feng Yu has told me about you. Do you intend on betraying the Heavenly Pool Palace?” His eyes flashed with killing intent at the end of his words.

Xu Lang shook his head. “I only wish that my student will be able to safely leave the Heavenly Pool Palace.”

Xue Hong Yu scoffed loudly, causing Xu Lang to turn pale. Then, he shifted his gaze to Duan Ling Tian and Elder Huo who were standing nearby.

At this moment, the Misty Wave Celestial Emperor stepped forward and pointed at Duan Ling Tian. “Lord Heavenly Emperor, he’s Duan Ling Tian! He’s the one who released the prisoners in the Thousand Chains Prison!”

Following that, Gu Chang Jiang, the Martial Dragon Celestial Emperor chimed in, fanning the fire, “That’s right, he’s the one who released the prisoners from the Thousand Chains Prison, including Pei Yun Ji whom you personally captured. This is tantamount to stepping on your dignity. Please punish him and his helper…”

Similar to Gu Chang Jiang, You Feng Yu did not forget to fan the fire as well. “Grandfather, he’s fully aware that you personally captured Pei Yuan Ji, but he did not care at all. It’s clear he doesn’t even have a modicum of respect for you!”

Earlier, You Feng Yu knew he could not deal with the red-clad old man. However, his confidence returned to him in waves now that his grandfather had arrived. In his opinion, even if there were ten of the red-clad old man, his father would easily kill all of them.

“Lord Heavenly Emperor!” Xu Lang’s expression changed drastically, and his heart raced in his chest. He said in a low voice, “My disciples and the senior next to Duan Ling Tian didn’t arbitrarily make a move… Please don’t believe everything they said…”

Following that, Xu Lang’s disciples bowed. “Please, Lord Heavenly Emperor!”

In their opinion, there was no doubt their Little Junior Brother would die if Xue Hong Yi decided to kill him.

At this moment, none of them was concerned about the reason Duan Ling Tian had insisted on staying in the Heavenly Pool Palace. They only fervently prayed that the Xue Hong Yu would not kill their Little Junior Brother.

Everyone’s attention was on Xue Hong Yi when Elder Huo said, “Lord Xue Hong Yu, we meet again.”

Elder Huo looked at Xue Hong Yu indifferently. Despite addressing Xue Hong Yi with the title of lord, there was no respect to be heard in his tone at all.

Needless to say, apart from Duan Ling Tian, everyone was surprised. It seemed like the red-clad old man was acquainted with Xue Hong Yu.

You Feng Yu, in particular, felt an ominous feeling rising in his heart.

“You… Elder Huo?!” Xue Hong Yu exclaimed in surprise as he stared at Elder Huo in a daze.

“I didn’t expect Lord Xue to still remember me… I’m flattered…” Elder Huo said nonchalantly.

Xue Hong Yu laughed as though he had just met an old friend. “Elder Huo, how can you say such things. Of course, I remember you. You saved me from humiliation in the past, after all…”

“That’s all in the past.” Elder Huo shook his head.

“Grandfather, you know him?” You Feng Yu asked as his voice trembled slightly.

Everyone, Xu Lang and his disciples were no exception, turned to look at Elder Huo, waiting for his answer. All of them had seen how polite Xue Hong Yu was to Elder Huo.

For Xu Lang and his disciples, they sighed in relief when they saw Xue Hong Yi’s politeness toward Elder Huo. At the same time, they figured out the Elder Huo was likely the source of Duan Ling Tian’s confidence. Based on the current situation, not only was Xue Hong Yu friendly, but it seemed like Elder Huo had helped Xue Hong Yu before.
