Chapter 2125 - 2122: Scarlet Blood Sword
"Can’t compare to you, the Undying Night Emperor, only able to take the crooked path."
Qing Zhu Emperor General grinned, speaking coldly.
But as he spoke, the aura of Qing Zhu Emperor General surged, as if about to surpass the peak of Quasi-Emperor, entering the Great Emperor Realm.
Yet, for some reason, that one step seemed forever unreachable for Qing Zhu Emperor General.
"Enough, today I’ll help you take the right path."
Ye Xuan smiled faintly.
Although their conversation seemed calm and unhurried, the atmosphere at the scene was extremely heavy.
The aura surrounding Qing Zhu Emperor General kept rising.
Seemingly about to break through to the Great Emperor Realm.
Yet, as Ye Xuan said, Qing Zhu Emperor General has stayed in this Heavenly Domain for years, yet still had no progress, only able to rely on Qingzhu Mountain to gather strength.
His own cultivation, one could say, has made no progress.
Such a ’useless being’ is not qualified to step into the Great Emperor Realm.
Throughout history, those in the Great Emperor Realm could always make a name for themselves.
But in the Quasi-Emperor Realm, very few have left their names in history.
Even the legendary Quasi-Emperor like the Heavenly Phoenix Emperor, who lived through Nirvana Nine Lifetimes, still couldn’t gain recognition.
Let alone a Qing Zhu Emperor General?
"Ultimately still won’t do..."
Qing Zhu Emperor General sighed lightly in his heart.
However, this came as no big surprise.
After all, he had foreseen it long ago.
If becoming an Emperor was so easy, it wouldn’t be called a Great Emperor.
Otherwise, there would be many more Great Emperors in this world.
In an instant, Qing Zhu Emperor General calmed down, looked at Ye Xuan with composure, and said in a calm voice: "May I ask if Emperor Ye dares to confront my crooked path?"
Ye Xuan’s lips curled into a mocking arc, his eyes cold, he replied indifferently: "Are you qualified?"
Qing Zhu Emperor General laughed: "Then let’s see if I’m qualified."
Boom!
In the next moment, Qing Zhu Emperor General, holding a Scarlet Blood Sword, his pair of emerald eyes had turned completely scarlet, flashing with a fierce killing intent.
"Silent Annihilation, All Things Return to Origin!"
Qing Zhu Emperor General spoke slowly, like a Heavenly Emperor giving orders, shaking the firmament.
Throughout Emperor Mu’s Heaven, all living beings heard these eight words.
For some reason, it inexplicably filled the hearts of all living beings with a sense of shock.

Heavenly Alliance of Emperor Mu’s Heaven.
The powerful figure originally guarding the Heavenly Alliance of Emperor Mu’s Heaven was a legendary being from the Great Saint Realm of the seventh layer of Emperor Mu’s Palace.
However, after a period of time, he was replaced by a formidable existence from the Nine Transitions of the Great Saint Realm.
This existence, it is said nearly became an Emperor General in the past, with a long-standing qualification, being among the first group to follow Emperor Mu, an unparalleled warrior.
But being stuck in the Fifth Transition of the Nine Transitions of the Great Saint, he naturally could not touch the Quasi-Emperor Realm.
Not even reaching the Quasi-Emperor Realm, he naturally wasn’t qualified to be titled an Emperor General.
Though at the time Emperor Mu defied public opinion, intending to elevate this person to an Emperor General, the old man clearly understood he couldn’t keep up with Emperor Mu’s pace, so he gracefully declined Emperor Mu’s goodwill, allowing a more powerful existence to assume the position of Emperor General.
Only then could it convince the masses.
After all, this realm belonged to the Double Emperors, not to Emperor Mu alone.
Therefore, in certain matters, considering the perspectives of all sides is crucial.
The Dao of balance exists among all things.
This elder, originally in a semi-retirement state, was summoned to anchor the Heavenly Alliance of Emperor Mu’s Heaven, the intent extremely clear—to handle Ye Xuan’s arrival.
Upon hearing each piece of news about Ye Xuan, the elder remained silent without expressing any views.
Even when the Dragon Ball of the Dragon Ball Sacred Land, most revered to Emperor Mu, was taken, he said nothing.
Until now.
When the elder heard the eight words ’Silent Annihilation, All Things Return to Origin,’ his eyes slightly sharpened, casually called a follower and said something.
The follower, upon hearing the elder’s words, quickly departed the Heavenly Alliance, heading to Emperor Mu’s Palace.
The elder looked at the complex chess endgame before him, tossed the pieces back into the box, his gaze complicated, sighing: "Under Emperor Mu, ten Emperor Generals, each extraordinary, but not one can achieve the level of camaraderie like the twelve Emperor Generals under Empress. Even when fellow Emperor Generals face disaster, no one is willing to intervene."
"Emperor Mu, what exactly are you planning? Why won’t you manage this?"
The elder was puzzled.
Despite knowing Emperor Mu probably had a grand scheme.
But the current situation has already surpassed expectations.
Ye Xuan has ascended Emperor Mu’s Heaven, first stepping on the most revered Dragon Ball Sacred Land of Emperor Mu, this is trampling Emperor Mu’s face.
Afterward, directly heading towards Qing Zhu Emperor General, closest to the Heavenly Domain Gate.
Though Qing Zhu Emperor General placed the Qing Zhu Mountain Dojo there, not with intent to guard, his solitary style, coupled with the location’s reasoning, being Ye Xuan’s first target posed no issue.
Yet the fact the opponent managed to corner Qing Zhu Emperor General to such an extent indicates opponents’ strength already approaches the Emperor Realm!
But still, other Emperor Generals show no intention of acting.
"Don’t they know?"
"Many are already saying, Ye Xuan from the Lower Realm will be this era’s new Emperor, a youngster having practiced only for ten years, intending to tread on Emperor Mu to rise!"
The elder seemed heartbroken, waving his hand to clear the endgame before him.
His plan was to find Yun Gui Lu Chuan.
Among the ten Emperor Generals under Emperor Mu, his relationship with Yun Gui Lu Chuan was the best.
Despite Yun Gui Lu Chuan suffering severe injuries and not yet healed, perhaps if Yun Gui Lu Chuan could speak to these fellows, there might still be a turnaround.
Otherwise, without Emperor Mu in Emperor Mu’s Heaven, combined with other Emperor Generals’ cold detachment.
Emperor Mu’s Heaven might indeed become the stepping stone for Ye Xuan, this ’new Emperor’!
That’s why the semi-retired elder chose to come forth and secure the Heavenly Alliance of Emperor Mu’s Heaven for the very root reason.
He firmly believed the era of Emperor Mu was merely beginning.
A so-called ’new Emperor’ dares step on Emperor Mu?
Courting death!

Qingzhu Mountain Dojo.
Qing Zhu Emperor General wielded the Scarlet Blood Sword, spat out eight words subtly, followed by a single thrust.
Boom!
The entire Qingzhu Mountain Dojo became enveloped in all Scarlet Sword Qi.
Each strand of Scarlet Sword Qi carried endless negative emotions, directly engulfing Ye Xuan.
For some reason, seeing the overwhelming Scarlet Sword Qi, Ye Xuan seemed to glimpse the upper reaches of the River of Time, where an unparalleled existence sat overlooking its flow downstream.
And within this person’s embrace rested a Scarlet Blood Sword, but contrasted with Qing Zhu Emperor General’s Scarlet Blood Sword, this blade appeared aged and antiquated, riddled with cracks.
And within those cracks, seemed to emanate terrifying auras ready to burst forth.
Bloodthirsty Sword...
Unexpectedly, a name emerged in Ye Xuan’s mind.
This made Ye Xuan’s expression somewhat peculiar.
Who is this being?
What is the origin of this Bloodthirsty Sword?
Is Qing Zhu Emperor General truly capable of such means?
