Divine King of Honour-Chapter 729: The Identity of Xuan Hong

Xu Nian shook his slightly numb arm.

His gaze was sharp as he looked ahead.

He saw a middle-aged man in a green robe approaching from a distance.

This man had an authoritative and domineering presence, moving with the stride of a dragon and the stance of a tiger.

But the aura around him was that of someone superior.

"Your Majesty, Emperor Xuanwu!"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Luo Pingnan immediately knelt and paid his respects.

As his voice fell,

the Xuanwu forces, intimidated by Xu Nian, also knelt in homage.

"Rise!"

The middle-aged man didn't look at anyone else and kept his eyes fixed on Xu Nian in front of him.

His gaze was ice-cold, with a hint of scrutiny.

Xu Nian looked at the suddenly appeared middle-aged man.

He hadn't expected this person to be the emperor of the Xuanwu Clan.

From the sword strike just now, it was evident.

Emperor Xuanwu's strength was formidable.

At least much stronger than the previous Shark Emperor.

And it seemed that Emperor Xuanwu was also a person who focused on the cultivation of strength.

The mere weight of that Heavy Sword was probably not far off from Xu Nian's Kunlun Hammer.

"Hmm!"

With a gesture, the Heavy Sword directly returned to his hand.

He waved it casually, causing the surrounding seawater to roar.

"Why didn't you stop when I asked you to stop?" Emperor Xuanwu asked coldly.

His look at Xu Nian carried a strong oppressive force.

"You expect me to stop just because you asked?" Xu Nian countered with a cold laugh.

Although Emperor Xuanwu's aura was overwhelming, he was not afraid of him.

If it came down to it, he would release his Undying Devouring Sky Beast Avatar to fight him.

He didn't believe that Emperor Xuanwu could be a match for the Undying Devouring Sky Beast Avatar.

"Who exactly are you? You aren't from our Xuanwu Clan, are you? Speak, which clan's spy are you?" Emperor Xuanwu scrutinized Xu Nian once, then questioned again.

Xu Nian merely smiled slightly.

A spy?

It seemed Emperor Xuanwu mistook him for someone from another Sea Demon Clan.

"I am a human. I was merely passing through your Xuanwu Clan's sea territory with no intention of offending. It was your Great General's son who tried to kill me first, which is why I defended myself. I had already spared him once, but he unbelievably sought revenge," Xu Nian explained.

"A human?" Emperor Xuanwu frowned.

He hadn't expected this young man in front of him to be a human.

A human entering their forbidden sea territory?

Luo Pingnan and the Xuanwu forces also showed surprised expressions.

A human youth?

Does that mean he's lived less than twenty years?

How could that be?

For the Sea Demon Clan, their lifespan far exceeds that of humans.

Especially the Xuanwu Clan, which has the longest lifespan among the Sea Demons.

So a few hundred years for them

might just be their juvenile period.

This Emperor Xuanwu, appearing middle-aged, had also lived for thousands of years.

And his age.

For the Xuanwu, was indeed only middle-aged.

At this moment, they were astonished to hear that Xu Nian was a human.

So they were amazed that a human under twenty years old could possess such terrifying combat power.

"Human, do you know that it's a capital crime for humans to step foot in the forbidden sea territory? No one who has entered the seabed of the forbidden territory has ever left alive," Emperor Xuanwu's eyes surged with killing intent.

"Is that so? Then I shall be the first," Xu Nian said with a slight smile, utterly disregarding Emperor Xuanwu's provocation.

Emperor Xuanwu's eyes grew even more intense with killing intent.

The surrounding Xuanwu army was all thoroughly excited.

Was Emperor Xuanwu about to take action?

Emperor Xuanwu was their Xuanwu Clan's strongest fighter.

As long as he made a move, this human youth would surely die without a doubt.

Luo Pingnan believed the same.

The power of Emperor Xuanwu was indeed formidable.

He could definitely be considered the pinnacle under a true Zifu Cultivator.

As long as the youth was not a Zifu Level cultivator.

Then he couldn't possibly be a match for Emperor Xuanwu.

Xu Nian was also eager to try.

He was curious to see just how strong Emperor Xuanwu was.

"Xuan Jue is related to you how?" However, just at that moment, Xuan Hong, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanwu was stunned.

He turned his head to look at Xuan Hong, his eyes filled with bewilderment.

"He is my grandfather, who are you?" Emperor Xuanwu replied.

"Xuan Jue is my son, and you are asking who I am?" Xuan Hong replied seriously as he looked at Emperor Xuanwu.

Emperor Xuanwu's eyes suddenly widened, displaying a look of surprise.

"You are..." Emperor Xuanwu hesitated.

"I am Xuan Hong, if you do not believe me, you can ask Xuan Jue, and this token should be familiar to you," Xuan Hong said.

After speaking, he tossed a token he was holding directly over.

Emperor Xuanwu caught the token, and his expression immediately changed drastically.

He quickly knelt on the ground, excitedly saying, "My child has seen his great-grandfather!"

The surrounding Xuanwu army was all dumbfounded. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Great-grandfather?

This middle-aged man was Emperor Xuanwu's great-grandfather?

Hadn't Emperor Xuanwu's great-grandfather long been deceased?

How could he appear again now?

However, they had no time for doubts.

Since Emperor Xuanwu himself acknowledged him, it was essentially confirmed as true.

Luo Pingnan was also shocked beyond measure.

He had not expected that the person beside the human youth was Emperor Xuanwu's great-grandfather.

Xu Nian was also somewhat surprised.

He had not expected that Xuan Hong would have such a significant identity.

It seemed this fight was not going to happen.

"Great-grandfather, I am so happy you can come back. Let's go, I will take you to Xuanwu Palace right now," Emperor Xuanwu said excitedly.

Xuan Hong nodded, his eyes showing not much emotion.

When he had left years ago, Xuan Hong had been just a little boy.

In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years had passed.

"My emperor, what should we do with this human?" Luo Pingnan asked Emperor Xuanwu.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanwu immediately looked towards Xuan Hong.

"His name is Xu Nian, he is my life-saving benefactor, if you lay a hand on him, you are making an enemy of me," Xuan Hong said, understanding Emperor Xuanwu's questioning look.

"Yes, yes, my child dares not," Emperor Xuanwu immediately nodded.

Then he turned to Luo Pingnan and said, "Did you hear that, starting from today, you are not to show any disrespect to Mr. Xu, your son's death is entirely his own fault, if you wish for revenge, you will have to get past me first."

"Yes!" Luo Pingnan immediately nodded in response.

A cold sweat broke out on his back.

With Emperor Xuanwu speaking, his son's quest for vengeance was essentially hopeless.

But he also knew that this matter, from beginning to end, was his son's own fault.

Xu Nian, in light of this, just smile sneerly.

He had not expected this storm to be so easily resolved.

He had been thinking about fighting Emperor Xuanwu to see just how far he could push his limits.

Now it seemed there was no chance for that.
