Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

"This farce should come to an end!"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion sighed softly.

He was reluctant to engage in war with the Supreme Sect so soon, but he had been in seclusion, attempting to open the realm passage to the Qingtian Realm.

As a result, he was completely unaware of Xiao Yi and the army's march into the Supreme Sect.

After all.

He understood better than anyone else.

Destroying the Supreme Sect was easy.

But by doing so...

He would place the Heavenly Tao Pavilion in opposition to the entire Unharmed Heaven Realm, becoming a thorn in the eyes and flesh of many experts.

The Heavenly Tao Pavilion could destroy the Supreme Sect.

Could they not also destroy others?

If so.

An overwhelmingly powerful force would arise in the Unharmed Heaven Realm, gathering all forces to fight against the Heavenly Tao Pavilion.

This was something the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion did not want to see.

However, now...

It was clear that things had exceeded his expectations.

He was already tied to the warship by Xiao Yi and had no choice but to fight!

Even if he came forward now, telling everyone that this war was instigated by Xiao Yi, no one would believe him!

Moreover.

He had an alliance with Xiao Yi, and he couldn't completely abandon him.

Of course.

The most important reason was that, in the heart of the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion, the Supreme Sect was easily annihilated!

All this seemed long but was merely a thought.

Li Tianchao manipulated the Earth Core Fire Dragon to rise into the sky, intending to find Xiao Yi and finally kill the boy who had repeatedly humiliated him.

Yet as he appeared...

He saw the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion not far away.

This immediately activated Li Tianchao's thoughts.

He and the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion were both top-tier experts in the Unharmed Heaven Realm, their powers and disputes incessant.

Now he had reached the Peak of Holy King Realm.

Catching up to the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion.

"If I can defeat him, I'll be the number one in the Unharmed Heaven Realm!" This thought surged like poison in Li Tianchao, inflaming his blood beyond control.

Resolute, he commanded the fire dragon towards the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion.

Boom!

As the dragon's mouth opened and closed.

A fiery ball as scorching as a Red Sun spewed forth.

One fireball followed another.

Each fireball, speeding through the air, erupted with an incomparable terrifying heat, as if even the void was about to boil over.

The sky was engulfed in flames, covering the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion.

"This is the heart fire of the earth extracted by myself, no matter how strong your body, you cannot escape this ultimate treasure's deadly assault..." Li Tianchao looked smug.

Faced with this terrifying assault.

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion nodded slightly: "Using the earth's heart fire to form an attack not only contains the power of the world's origin but also merges with the earth fire, enhancing its might to a higher level. It's a pity though..."

"Pity?" Li Tianchao was stunned.

This was one of his most proud attack methods.

But judging from the Pavilion Master's tone, it seemed he was somewhat disdainful of this move?

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion said calmly: "The earth fire is strong, capable of melting Holy King weapons, refining Holy King bodies… but who told you I'm a Holy King?"

"What?"

Li Tianchao was stunned.

If not a Holy King, then what?

Wait a moment...

Li Tianchao's face changed dramatically, looking at the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion with disbelief: "You, you, have you already crossed into that realm?"

That realm?

At the sound of these four words, exclamations and incredulous whispers erupted everywhere.

Saint Emperor!

That was the Saint Emperor Realm!

For so many years in the Unharmed Heaven Realm, not a single expert had ascended to the Saint Emperor Realm.

Could it be this barrier is about to be broken?

In the void.

The Sect Master of the Feather Transformation Sect's face changed dramatically, looking at the Leader of the God Slayer Sect: "Leader, has the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion really entered the Saint Emperor Realm? What should we do then?"

"Im-impossible..."

The Leader of the God Slayer Sect shook his head like waves in a valley, his expression as bitter as ever, resembling one who had swallowed bitter gall without any words of explanation.

The Sect Master of the Feather Transformation Sect laughed bitterly: "What if it's true?"

"Then we..."

The Leader of the God Slayer Sect hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly, with intense unwillingness, gritted his teeth and said, "We can only watch as the Supreme Sect is extinguished and prepare to submit to the Heavenly Tao Pavilion..."

The strong ones beside them were all silent.

They had no argument.

If the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion really stepped into the Saint Emperor Realm, who in the vast Unharmed Heaven Realm could stop him?

"Impossible!"

Li Tianchao let out an earth-shattering roar, his eyes filled with coldness and unwillingness, "Absolutely impossible, I cultivated through immense hardship, closed for thousands of years to barely reach the Peak of Holy King Realm, how could you reach Saint Emperor so quickly..."

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion smiled faintly.

He didn't speak further.

Instead, he raised his right hand.

With a flick of his finger.

Buzz!

The entire void suddenly halted.

The blazing fire dragon paused in mid-air as if it was bewitched by a Binding Spell, unmoving.

The area around the fire dragon also fell into silence.

Deathly stillness!

As if time and space were frozen!

Until after a moment.

Crack!

A crisp sound emanated from the top of the fire dragon's head.

Following that...

The sound of cracking spread throughout the surrounding void like a mirror, continuously shattering and then falling apart.

When everything settled into calm.

The fire dragon had disintegrated.

While Li Tianchao...

Now covered in blood, stood disheveled before the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion, their eyes locking.

Moments later.

Li Tianchao spat a mouthful of fresh blood, staring straight at the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion, his eyes showing a trace of relief, yet more was impotence and despondency: "Saint Emperor... what kind of realm is that exactly?"

The moment the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion acted, he felt an unparalleled despair.

The difference in strength between them was so massive!

So great, it left him without a heart for resistance.

"Is the Pavilion Master really in the Saint Emperor Realm?"

"If this is true, who in the Unharmed Heaven Realm could be a match for our Heavenly Tao Pavilion? Wouldn't our Heavenly Tao Pavilion be invincible?" The First and Second Peak Masters exchanged glances.

But Xiao Yi gently shook his head: "No, the Pavilion Master has not entered the Saint Emperor Realm!"

"What?"

Everyone was taken aback, looking at him puzzledly, "Being this strong yet not a Saint Emperor?"

Xiao Yi nodded heavily.

His gaze never left the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion.

Though currently allied with the Pavilion Master, he couldn't be certain if conflicts might arise in the future.

But he knew...

If a battle truly broke out between the Pavilion Master and him, he would definitely be no match.

He had thought reaching the Saint King Realm granted him the right to confront the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion.

But now it seemed he was still far behind!

"Looks like... that guy's powerful display in defeating Li Tianchao was partly directed at me..." Xiao Yi thought.

At this thought.

He couldn't help clenching his fists, looking resolutely at the direction of the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Tao Pavilion: "I have to get stronger, much stronger..."
