NOVEL NEXT Chapter 677: Just Kill
"Emperor!"
Hearing these words, the Dark Palace Master's body shook violently. In the next moment, his eyes filled with ecstatic joy—Ren Changsheng had arrived. After three days of seclusion, Ren Changsheng had finally emerged.
Finally emerged, indeed.
These three days.
They were extremely difficult for him. These people were demanding Ren Changsheng be handed over, yet without any command from Ren Changsheng himself, he dared not make any decisions.
The current Dark Temple.
It no longer belonged to him, but to Ren Changsheng. Ren Changsheng's commands were the only true orders, and without Ren Changsheng's clear direction, he dared not act.
"It is Emperor Ren! Emperor Ren has finally emerged from seclusion!"
"Emperor Ren has come out, these people are going to suffer now. I want to see if they dare to remain arrogant in front of Emperor Ren!"
"That's right!"
…
The disciples of the Dark Temple were instantly invigorated, looking as if they had encountered their savior, while the others were stunned at this moment.
What's going on?
What has happened within the Dark Temple?
"No, it's the Emperor, that person is the Emperor. I've caught a distant glimpse of him before; this person is indeed the Emperor from the Dark Temple!"
An exclamation arose.
All eyes instantly fell upon Ren Changsheng.
They had been clamoring for the Dark Temple to hand over the Emperor, and now, the Emperor had emerged—a stand had been taken by Ren Changsheng himself.
"It's him!"
Seventeen Elders' eyes flared with an intent to kill in an instant. That young appearance, he could never forget, for back in front of Ping Yuan City, it was that very youth.
Who shattered his avatar.
The youth's cultivation level was merely sixty Dao levels at that time, to him, it was a disgrace, a stain the Seventeen Elders couldn't possibly forget.
This disgrace.
Only by killing Ren Changsheng could it be washed away, and Ren Changsheng had killed his disciple Golden Saint as well. How could this grudge not be settled? The Emperor in front of his eyes must die!
"Who asked for me to come out?"
A faint voice rang out again, an air of calm without a ripple emanated from Ren Changsheng's being, but his eyebrows slightly furrowed as he observed the group in front of him.
Have the Hall Master send these people away.
It's been three days.
Since they're all still here.
"Emperor, please calm your anger!"
The Dark Palace Master was the first to kneel before Ren Changsheng, looking at the youth, he could feel Ren Changsheng's dissatisfaction. Three days ago, Ren Changsheng had instructed him to send these people away.
Yet now.
Not only had these people not left, but they also came to cause trouble.
"Lord?"
Seeing the Dark Palace Master kneeling before Ren Changsheng, everyone was flabbergasted, their eyes nearly falling out of their heads. The mighty Dark Palace Master, now knelt before Emperor Ren?
What in the world...
Was going on?
"What exactly happened, why is the Dark Palace Master calling him Emperor?"
"What has happened in the Dark Temple?"
"This Dark Temple, could it be that they have lost their minds to the darkness, now calling someone Emperor, someone who's merely from the Chaotic World!"
…
The crowd was full of uproar.
But in the next moment.
Silence fell upon them all.
"Greetings to Emperor Ren!"
"Greetings to Emperor Ren!"
…
Apart from the Dark Palace Master, the other elders of the Dark Temple, as well at this moment, respectfully knelt one by one before the youth, their eyes filled with fervor as they gazed upon him.
"Everyone, rise."
Ren Changsheng's indifferent voice sounded.
"Thank you, Emperor Ren!"
Figures rose one after another, standing respectfully.
"Dark Palace Master, what is the meaning of this?"
Looking at the Dark Palace Master, Ren Changsheng asked indifferently.
"Emperor of Humanity, here is what happened: these people..."
The Dark Palace Master hurriedly explained everything. The people from the major forces had gone too far this time and had even had the audacity to demand that the Dark Temple hand over the Emperor of Humanity, which was simply courting death.
"What do you think is the solution to this matter?"
Gazing at the Dark Palace Master, Ren Changsheng spoke indifferently.
With the Dark Palace Master's explanation.
Ren Changsheng understood the situation.
The people from these major forces probably wanted to find out about the whereabouts of the 'Heart of Darkness,' but since the Dark Palace Master had said nothing, the major forces had directed their hostility towards him.
Especially the seventeenth elder of the Golden Saint Hall.
He was the first one.
To take him down!
The other major forces had also come up with various pretexts; minor incidents from the Jiuming Secret Realm were now being dug up by these people.
"The incident from the Jiuming Secret Realm wasn't pursued by me personally, and now they dare to come after me?"
In Ren Changsheng's heart.
There was nothing but sneers.
Today, he had emerged from seclusion, intending to make a move against the major forces. After all, for the Palace of the Emperor of Humanity to grow, contending with the major forces was inevitable.
But today.
Since these people had come looking for trouble, it was just perfect!
"Following the great one's orders!"
The Dark Palace Master said respectfully.
Ren Changsheng asked him how to solve the problem, and he didn't dare suggest anything. The Dark Palace Master was very aware that the young man had already made his decision.
"Dark Palace Master, they are bullying us to our face, why should we be polite!"
"Just kill them!"
The indifferent voice echoed in the void.
Just kill them!
The arrogant voice, with a hint of scorn, caused the disciples of the Dark Temple to shudder, their blood boiling with excitement.
Just kill them?
This was what they were supposed to do, but even at the peak of the Dark Temple's power, they would not dare to easily strike against the elders of the major forces.
That young man.
Directly ordered them to kill!
"Great one..."
The Dark Palace Master wanted to say something, but as he opened his mouth, he could not utter a word. In the Dark Temple, the young man's words were commands.
Of course, the Dark Palace Master was clear.
Today.
If they killed this group of people, then the Dark Temple would have completely offended all the forces, and the outcome for the Dark Temple would be nothing short of tragic.
"Dark Palace Master, the Palace of the Emperor of Humanity is not the same as the former Dark Temple. From today onward, anyone who dares to defy anything of the Palace of the Emperor of Humanity, including the Dark Temple!"
"Kill without mercy!"
Ren Changsheng said indifferently.
"Yes!"
The light in the eyes of the Dark Palace Master surged in an instant. Kill without mercy? So what if they offended all the forces? What if the Dark Temple perished? Couldn't they afford to be reckless just once!
"The audacious youth!"
But in that moment, a haughty voice sounded, and the seventeenth elder stepped forward, his expression mocking as he looked at Ren Changsheng. The cultivation level of Ren Changsheng in front of him was stronger than he had expected.
As Ren Changsheng merged with the Hongmeng Control Body.
His previous cultivation level.
Had also been restored!
Currently, Ren Changsheng's cultivation level was at 147 Dao levels, among the major forces, that was the peak of a second-tier elder, and not far from a first-tier elder.
But even so.
The seventeenth elder did not consider him significant.
His cultivation level.
With over 180 Dao levels, in his eyes, a little second-tier elder was no different from an ant. To slay a second-tier elder.
Would be a piece of cake.
