Lord of All Gods

Chapter 1300: Chapter 1300 Led By The Nose

Ye Liuyun believed that even if it wasn’t Emperor Xia trying to intercept him, Emperor Xia’s shrewdness meant that there was no way he wouldn’t know that someone was behind things.

Since Emperor Xia hadn’t directly intervened, he decided to cause a bit of trouble for the emperor.

He just wasn’t sure if the Burial God would deal with the city’s army the way he had handled the foreign race on the battlefield.

As the Burial God closed in on Ye Liuyun, he suddenly realized that Ye Liuyun had retreated further back again.

"Is there something wrong with the Ghostic Mark? Or is this guy playing hide and seek with me?"

The Burial God stopped and carefully examined the mark he had placed on Ye Liuyun but found no issues.

"You damn brat, just wait until I catch you. I’ll rip your skin off! How dare you try and mess with me!"

The Burial God cursed and resumed his pursuit.

At the same time, he summoned the people of the Ghostic Hell to come and help intercept Ye Liuyun.

He had a hunch that Ye Liuyun might possess some kind of artifact with a Conveyor Formation.

If that was the case, he wouldn’t be able to stop Ye Liuyun on his own.

However, it would take at least a year for the residents of the Ghostic Hell to arrive.

The Burial God regretted being too arrogant in the past. If he had brought more people with him back then, he wouldn’t have let Ye Liuyun lead him by the nose.

However, there was nothing he could do now. He could only continue pursuing Ye Liuyun.

He also understood that Ye Liuyun was trying to buy time to enhance his strength.

But he didn’t care at all. Even if Ye Liuyun had several years, he still wouldn’t catch up to the Burial God.

Thus, he remained patient and pursued Ye Liuyun at a steady pace.

That gave Ye Liuyun at least another two to three months for cultivation. To avoid detection, he stayed in the inn each day and focused on refining his abilities within the Xuankong Stone.

By the time the Burial God caught up to him again, Ye Liuyun’s cultivation had risen to the later stages of the fourth stage of the Sacred Terra.

This time, he intentionally waited until the Burial God got closer, then used the Black Tower to teleport back to his previous location in the Extraterritorial Area. He retrieved the flying shuttle and continued his journey.

When the imperial family saw the Burial God’s return, they immediately suspected that Ye Liuyun had also returned. However, they were unaware that Ye Liuyun was in the Imperial City.

Despite various attempts to test Zhuge Feiyu and others, they remained in the dark.

It was only when the Burial God headed towards the Imperial City that they realized Ye Liuyun had arrived.

Emperor Xia had no choice but to inform the previous emperor, saying, "Ye Liuyun has led the Burial God to the Imperial City."

"Hm? Did he do it on purpose?" The previous emperor asked.

Emperor Xia replied tentatively, "He was intercepted by the imperial forces a few times before this, so it’s likely a form of retaliation."

"Are you saying that I shouldn’t have sent people to stop him?" The previous emperor calmly said.

"I wouldn’t dare! It’s just that Ye Liuyun’s abilities are beyond what ordinary people can handle!" The Xia Emperor said cautiously.

"I’m getting old and losing my edge. I’ll go see the Burial God’s situation, hopefully he won’t act recklessly!" The previous emperor said as he rose to his feet and walked in the direction of the Burial God.

It turned out that the person who had given the order to intercept Ye Liuyin was indeed the previous emperor. freewebnøvel.com

However, Emperor Xia didn’t question why the previous emperor had wanted to intercept Ye Liuyun.

He was more concerned about whether the Burial God would vent his frustrations on the Imperial City.

As the Burial God approached the Imperial City, he immediately suspected that Ye Liuyun had intentionally led the Burial God there. Thus, he ordered a city-wide search for Ye Liuyun.

However, the Concealcape allowed Ye Liuyun to elude capture.

Now, Emperor Xia could only gather the imperial family’s most skilled individuals to prevent the Burial God from venting his anger on them.

On the Burial God’s side, he was infuriated upon seeing that Ye Liuyun had once again moved to the Extraterritorial Area just as he was about to reach the Imperial City. Almost driven to the point of vomiting blood, he vented his anger by striking a nearby mountain peak.

The members of the imperial family were alarmed, thinking that the Burial God was about to attack them.

The previous emperor rushed out of the Imperial City and positioned himself between the Burial God and the Imperial City. He was a Sacred Majesty at the ninth level, and was also the highest ranking representative in the imperial family.

"Lord Burial God," the previous emperor greeted the Burial God.

The Burial God, still seething with anger, naturally didn’t respond kindly and casually struck a slap in his direction.

He even scolded, "Get lost!"

The Burial God’s palm carried a surge of energy, even though he had restrained himself and understood he couldn’t casually attack people.

However, he was an Immortal Level expert after all. Even if he only used seventy percent of his power, it was enough to send the previous emperor flying.

"Crash!"

The previous emperor was prepared as well, and he hurriedly took action to retaliate. Nevertheless, the Burial God’s strike sent him flying back into the Imperial City, demolishing several buildings in the process. He was pinned beneath the rubble, blood spewing as he lay in a dire condition.

The members of the imperial family were on even higher alert, believing that the Burial God was about to attack them next.

The Underworld God knew that he wouldn’t die and couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to him. It turned around and chased after Ye Liuyun. The Burial God, unconcerned with the state of the previous emperor, knew he would not die that easily. So, he turned back and continued his pursuit of Ye Liuyun.

This time, his speed was slightly faster than before.

It wasn’t until the Burial God had completely disappeared that the members of the imperial family collectively breathed a sigh of relief.

The previous emperor had already been brought back to the imperial palace to recuperate.

Emperor Xia was secretly thinking, "Ye Liuyun is truly something else! If he intended to seek revenge, it was perfectly executed!"

He had known all along that it was the previous emperor who had been pulling the strings in secret. However, he couldn’t openly admit it, and he didn’t dare to intervene.

He believed that he couldn’t stop Ye Liuyun anyway, and Ye Liuyun wouldn’t be returning in the short future, so he hadn’t paid much attention to it.

He simply hadn’t expected that Ye Liuyun would exact revenge so quickly, and that the retaliation would be so precise, injuring only the previous emperor while sparing everyone else. It was as if the Burial God was cooperating with him.

Emperor Xia shook his head in resignation and immediately had supplies sent to Ye Liuyun’s army to make amends.

After Ye Liuyun boarded the flying shuttle, he also noticed that the Burial God was moving faster than before.

"Heh heh, this old guy must have been really infuriated!" He couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction.

Although he couldn’t defeat the Burial God at the moment, having a chance to torment him was quite enjoyable.

Later, Ye Liuyun received a message from Zhuge Feiyu, informing him that Emperor Xia was trying to reconcile with him, and he should avoid leading the Burial God to the Imperial City in the future.

"Haha, if I didn’t teach them a lesson, they’ll think they can bully me just because I left?" Ye Liuyun laughed.

"That’s right! I doubt anyone will dare to lay their hands on you in the future!" Zhuge Feiyu also laughed.

"Be careful as well!" Ye Liuyun cautioned them.

He was concerned that after he left, the imperial family might target them.

"Don’t worry, as long as they haven’t received news of your death, they won’t dare to lay a finger on us!" Zhuge Feiyu assured him.

Ye Liuyun suddenly felt that his departure might be a good thing!

Perhaps, after he left, they would gradually build their reputations and eventually become powerful in their own right.

Then, no matter where he went in the future, they would be safe and secure!
