Eternal Holy Emperor

Chapter 1843: Chapter 1658: Entering the Empire Ruins!

Pin-drop silence!

In an instant, countless shocked gazes all fell upon Ye Chen, all filled with disbelief.

Even the previously composed Ancient Emperor was no exception.

Stunned!

Everyone was utterly stunned.

No one had expected that the Combat Saint King before them was actually the husband of one of the nine ancient road dominators, the Goddess.

But it’s no wonder they were surprised, for who would think that the Goddess’s husband would be weaker than her?

Moreover, the Ancient Empire, while operating only on the Pill Emperor Star, is not as meticulous in observing the intricacies of the Ultimate Ancient Road as those ancient road heavenly talents.

"Combat Saint King, are you serious?"

All the royal family’s powerhouses still had a hard time believing.

For all of this was far too outrageous—who would have thought the Combat Saint King was not only on par with an Emperor’s son but also married to the Goddess?

She, one of the nine supreme tyrants of the Ultimate Ancient Road, bears invincible might, surpassing anyone in the Ancient Empire, and even the hundred-year-old Moon Palace is not inferior to this ancient empire of tens or hundreds of thousands of years.

Such a supreme, invincible being—and her husband is the Combat Saint King, still hard for some to believe.

"If you don’t believe it, you may go and ask those ancient road heavenly talents." Ye Chen smiled as he spoke.

Upon witnessing this, nearly every powerhouse of the Ancient Empire believed Ye Chen’s words, considering he was the renowned Combat Saint King and would not utter such lies; furthermore, royal members secretly dispatched powerhouses to investigate and confirm the matter.

In response, Ye Chen calmly waited, not anxious at all, increasingly convincing the others.

Soon, replies came back, and although the royal family had already heard it from Ye Chen, knowing it for certain now was even more exhilarating.

With the help of the Moon Palace, the Ancient Empire truly had the chance to step out from the Pill Emperor Star and regain its former glory.

Naturally, negotiations ensued, as Ye Chen couldn’t possibly help the Ancient Empire fully restore its past glory—his aid allowed them to occupy critical star domains in the depths of space temporarily, thereafter requiring the Ancient Empire to send its own troops for guard duty.

Of course, the power of the Moon Palace would still awe the stars.

Thus, the two began forming alliances and friendly relations.

Ye Chen was granted access to the empire ruins within the Ancient Empire, a place steeped in antiquity, residing in another mysterious realm, where without the current King and several Great Power level warriors of the Ancient Empire, outsiders could never enter.

Just like the Void God Temple on the Ultimate Ancient Road, strictly guarded.

It’s safe to say that the empire ruins are of utmost importance, housing a King Immortal Weapon, formerly the supreme battle weapon of an ancient monarch of the Ancient Empire, suppressing the immortal foundations of the empire.

Thus, Ye Chen completely vanished from the world, oblivious to outside affairs.

Meanwhile, the Pill Emperor Star grew increasingly lively—a myriad of powerhouses arrived, creating a spectacle more grand and bustling than even the once-in-a-millennium Pill Scripture.

The previously domineering Primordial Emperor Clan now completely retreated to their Emperor Clan Ancient Realm, ceasing all outings, with fewer emperor clan warriors venturing outside.

However, some sensed that this conduct from the Primordial Emperor Clan felt more like the dawn before a storm, with tremendous turbulence brewing beneath the calm.

The day before the Eternal Conference began, a whirlwind swept through the Ancient Universe, countless powerhouses appeared, both on the Pill Emperor Star and in the Outer Domain, teeming with formidable beings.

At this moment, on the Eastern Barbaric Continent, a pair of beautiful sisters were traversing across the Primordial Continent, the older seemingly in her prime, the younger merely four or five years old, both exquisitely charming.

What astonished people was that their walking speed was unbelievably swift, akin to traversing the world in one step, surpassing an unknown number of powerhouses, with even Great Powers trailing far behind.

During this, the doll-like little girl looked up with her adorable, alabaster-red face, speaking in a sweet voice, "Sister, where is daddy?"

The maiden gently rubbed her forehead, somewhat helpless, "I don’t know where dad is either. I just heard he was here recently, but now it’s unclear."

"But Chenxi really wants to see daddy." The little girl tugged at her sister’s hem, her big, bright eyes gazing innocently, still longingly seeking her, her eyes brimming with delightful spiritual energy.

The maiden stroked her little sister’s cute head, saying, "Don’t be sad, Chenxi. Tomorrow is the Eternal Conference, dad will surely appear. When the time comes, sister will bring you along to give our long-lost dad a big surprise."

"Okay!"

Little Chenxi nodded strongly, uttering in her sweet voice, "Little Chenxi wants to see daddy’s surprised expression too. But...will daddy dislike my naughty self?"

Saying this, Little Chenxi subconsciously tugged at her own hem, appearing endearing and pitiful, her delicate, adorable face demanding affection, a wish to wrap her in embrace and shower her with kisses.

The maiden immediately hugged her sister, kissing her adorable, refined cheek, saying, "No need to worry, dad loves daughters like you, lively and spirited. Sister used to be even more mischievous than you when I was little, but dad still liked me. And should he dare dislike, not to mention sister, if a few moms find out, they’d surely hunt him down."

Upon hearing this, Little Chenxi finally exhaled a breath, nodding vigorously, her tiny face alight with anticipation.

Far away in the Ancient Empire, three days later, Ye Chen emerged from the empire ruins, and at that moment.

He appeared more solemn, having learned many ancient secrets from the empire ruins, aware of numerous developments, increasingly apprehensive.

The more he knew, the more worried he became about the Eternal Conference, even more so about the Great Emperor Reincarnation.

"Indeed, every Great Emperor is wise, unfathomable beyond measure."

He left with a sigh incomprehensible to outsiders, then departed.

Meanwhile, the time had truly arrived.

The eagerly anticipated, universally concerned Eternal Conference was finally about to begin!
