Chapter 236: Demon Dragon.
Under Kunlun Mountain.
Outside the inn.
The crowd was numb, full of shock from what they had just witnessed.
First, Holy Monk Xuan Ku had bitterly chased the four Evil Path Martial Artists for tens of thousands of miles, then the Evil Emperor, who had run amok in the world 70 years ago reappeared. But not only did the Evil Emperor not make a move against Xuan Ku, he actually attacked the four Evil Path Martial Artists that’s his supposed subordinates.
Finally, the one that made the crowd horrified was that the Evil Emperor actually bowed towards someone in the inn and respectfully addressed him as ‘Lord’. ..
Now that 70 years had passed, the Evil Emperor should be near Grade 1 Great Perfection if he was not already one. With this kind of strength, he should’ve been able to roam the world with head held high. Yet here he was, bowing down.
If this situation were to spread, the world was bound to shake.
The crowd’s heartbeat accelerated and their gazes swept over the inn. One thought after another flashed through their minds. Who was it that can make the Evil Emperor respectfully call him a ‘Lord’?
At this moment, in the inn on the second floor, the inn owner froze and began to shiver.
How can the inn owner not know what the Evil Emperor bowing deeply towards the inn meant?
“Legend.”
“There’s at least a Legend in the inn…”
The inn owner’s forehead overflowed with cold sweat, drop after drop. He felt like he was walking the fine line between life and death.
A Legend was in the inn. If the inn owner had offended that Legend, he would have been long dead.
“No wonder the Evil Emperor’s aura suddenly disappeared, it turned out that he was caught by a Legend…” The inn owner’s doubts were cleared.
On the other end of the spectrum, the people inside in the inn were trembling.
Although they didn’t think as much as the inn owner, they were still equally aware of a powerful existence within the inn. One who they could not afford to mess with, not by a long shot.
“Who is it?!”
Xuan Ku was alert. If it was just the Evil Emperor, he still had the palm-sized wooden sword left behind by Su Qin. He would be able to handle the Evil Emperor. But looking at the current attitude of the Evil Emperor, it was obvious that there was someone else behind him.
Also, this person’s strength was certainly far beyond the Evil Emperor, most likely a Legend Level of existence.
Then the next moment, under the gaze of all the people, a slender and upright figure slowly walked out from inside the inn.
[Boom~]!!!
Deep fear suddenly filled everyone’s heart, and many of them fell to the ground with a poof. They felt that the figure that came out of the inn was like a God.
They couldn’t look straight at the figure, so it was impossible to speculate who it was.
“Venerable, Venerable…”
Only Xuan Ku had opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
This figure that came out of the inn was clearly the Venerable that left Shaolin Temple more than 20 years ago!
“Let’s go somewhere.”
“It’s not convenient to talk here.”
Su Qin swept a glance at Xuan Ku and turned to leave.
“Yes.”
Xuan Ku immediately followed.
The Evil Emperor hesitated, but he did not have the courage to take advantage of this opportunity to escape, so he could only similarly follow behind Xuan Ku.
It wasn’t until after Su Qin left, that the people had barely recovered. They only saw that a slender figure walked out of the inn before their eyes began to sting. Not to mention that fear had completely filled their hearts.
“Legend, that was a Legend…” Someone said, as he trembled with excitement.
When the rest of the people heard this, their heartbeats suddenly accelerated.
To be able to make the Evil Emperor that respectful and respectfully call the other party ‘Lord’, as well as being able to make all of them kneel on the ground without doing anything, can only be done by the rumored Legend.
“I wonder who it is? Is it the Legend from Chang’an City? Or the Arhat from the Shaolin Temple?”
As time passed, the crowd began to recover one after another and started discussing.
For these people, even the Upper Realm was out of reach, not to mention the Legend Realm. So being able to witness a Legend at this moment was enough to brag about for the rest of their lives.
“Didn’t the Arhat from the Shaolin Temple cross the sea long ago? It should be the Legend of Chang’an City, right?” One voiced his opinion.
“No, if it was the Legend from Chang’an City, there was no need to step in and save Holy Monk Xuan Ku.”
Another person rejected the idea.
At this moment, they finally realized why the Evil Emperor attacked the four Evil Path Martial Artists. It was because the Legend wanted to save Xuan Ku.
Since the Legend from Chang’an City had nothing to do with Xuan Ku, it should be the Arhat of the Shaolin Temple.
“Regardless of who it was, this time’s appearance of the War God Temple will certainly present a good show…”
When these words were said, the eyes of the people lit up.
Indeed, it was only because of the appearance of the War God Temple that a Legend came here.
- ווו
While the crowd was discussing amongst themselves, Su Qin had brought Xuan Ku and the others under an ancient tree.
“Disciple has seen the Venerable…” Xuan Ku performed a Buddhist salute towards Su Qin.
He was incredibly excited. If it wasn’t for Su Qin completing his Buddhist Heart and guiding his Cultivation, he would have still been chanting Buddhist scriptures at the Shaolin Temple. How could he have such achievements?
“Get up.”
Su Qin waved his hand.
Su Qin then asked what happened to the Shaolin Temple these past few years.
More than 20 years later, with the Shaolin Temple relying on the things left by Su Qin, coupled with the recovery of vitality, the Shaolin Temple gave birth to a few Grade 1s. Even Abbott Hui Wen began to touch at the Peak Grade 1 Transformations.
As for other things….
Shaolin Temple was the same. Other than having a few more experts, there was almost no difference from 20 years ago.
It was worth mentioning that the Shaolin Temple had begun to recruit ‘Ming’ Generation of disciples.
The ‘Ming’ Generation of disciples was the generation after the ‘Xuan’ Generation. Su Qin, who was from the ‘Zhen’ (True) Generation, should be now among the ranks of the Elders in the Shaolin Temple.
“What do you know about the War God Temple?”
Su Qin swept his eyes to the top of Kunlun Mountain and casually asked.
“War God Temple?”
Xuan Ku shook his head and answered truthfully, “Venerable, I did not come to Kunlun Mountain for the War God Temple.”
When the news of the War God Temple appearing came out, the world boiled and there was no telling how many old monsters would show up. After all, those who were able to enter the War God Temple would be able to obtain great opportunities, which could boost their Cultivation to at least Peak Grade 1 Transformations Stage.
Although Xuan Ku had unlimited potential, in the end, he was still too young. Even if his talent was terrifying, compared to those old monsters who have lived for a 100 years or those approaching the end of their lifespan, he was behind them in terms of experience and accumulation.
“My Lord.”
“I know something about the War God Temple.”
At this moment, the Evil Emperor, who was standing next to him respectfully, said cautiously.
“Tell me about it.” Su Qin looked at the Evil Emperor and said indifferently. No matter what, the War God Temple was from the previous prosperous era and should not be underestimated.
Although Su Qin was confident in himself, he would not be too arrogant and still wanted to know more about the War God Temple.
“My Lord.”
“As far as I know.”
“Within the War God Temple, there is a living being present.”
The Evil Emperor hesitated before quickly saying.
“Oh?”
“Continue!”
Su Qin’s expression remained unchanged.
“Are you saying that there are living creatures within the War God Temple?” Xuan Ku next to him was stunned, not daring to believe it.
The War God Temple only appeared once every 1000 years, with such a long span of time, even Legends or Arhats would have died of old age. So how could there be living creatures present?
“Thousands of years ago, a certain ancestor of the Evil Path had entered the War God Temple and came out alive. They left a record that within the War God Temple, a creature called the Demon Dragon existed.”
The Evil Emperor felt Su Qin’s gaze and immediately said everything he knew obediently without hesitation.
“Demon Dragon?”
Xuan Ku’s pupils shrank.
Since ancient times, dragons have always been creatures of myths and legends. They could move clouds and rain, symbolizing power and might. Since that so-called Demon Dragon within the War God Temple had the word ‘dragon’ in it, it was obviously far beyond the imagination of ordinary Martial Artists.
“Yes.”
The Evil Emperor nodded gravely: “Within the War God Temple, there is a Demon Dragon guarding it. If you want to obtain the greatest opportunity in the War God Temple, you must obtain the Demon Dragon’s approval.”
When the Evil Emperor said this, a trace of bitterness emerged on his face: “According to the record of that ancestor, the Demon Dragon had terrifying strength and should have surpassed ordinary Legends…”
As the Evil Emperor said this, he carefully peeked at Su Qin.
