Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1011 - The Sovereign’s Godson

The rebellion in the Holy Spirit Ancient Nation was decisively crushed.

When news spread, shockwaves rippled through the nation.

Everyone had thought the sovereign would die in this huge battle, and his faction would also meet with ill fates.

Yet, to everyone’s surprise, his toxins were cured, allowing him to unleash godlike might. He swept through the rebels with unmatched strength, obliterating Prince Jing and his allies, shattering the Sun Moon Divine Sect’s schemes.

Information regarding this battle swept through the entire ancient nation almost instantly.

“Heavens, what an earth-shocking reversal! Prince Dawu, General Qingluan of the Heavenly Goldenrain Nation, the Man Clan, the Li Clan, and the experts of other ten-thousand-year ancient nations backed Prince Jing and Prince Qi in forcing the sovereign to abdicate—only for things to take an unimaginable turn.”

“I know, right? My second uncle is a guard from the sovereign’s faction. He witnessed that battle with his own eyes. The sovereign personally killed Prince Jing, Prince Qi, and the others with overwhelming strength, radiating unparalleled majesty. He is truly a ruler of a generation.”

“I heard even a hall master from the Sun Moon Divine Sect, Lei Dongtian, made an appearance. He joined hands with seven Greater Legendary realm powerhouses to surround and besiege the sovereign. Yet, the sovereign killed five, crippled three, and barely survived.”

“That’s right. Lei Dongtian had indeed shown up. As a hall master of one of the ten great legacy halls, he is undeniably strong. He’s far stronger than Prince Jing, Prince Qi, and the others. But even if he faced the sovereign in a fair duel, he wouldn’t stand a chance.”

“I also heard that after Lei Dongtian failed to eliminate the sovereign, experts from the Warring Nation, the Heavenly Goldenrain Nation, and other forces stepped in to pressure him—only to retreat. Why? The sovereign is powerful, but after being gravely injured by Lei Dongtian, how could he possibly resist all the others?”

“Hoho, my second uncle told me about this. The True Martial Academy stepped in, directly threatening Prince Dawu and the others—forcing them to back off. Otherwise, things would’ve ended very differently.”

“That can’t be? A few words from the True Martial Academy scared them off? That’s too unbelievable. I definitely don’t believe it.”

“Hoho, what do you know! Do you know about Chen Fan and the others’ origin?”

“They are disciples of the True Martial Academy, aren’t they?”

“They are disciples of the True Martial Academy, true, but they’re from the Peerless Peak! Do you know what that means?”

“The Peerless Peak? The True Martial Academy’s Peerless Peak? My god, I’ve heard of them! That peak is strange—fewer than ten people, yet its members are all dragons amongst men, peerless monsters. I even heard a saying: only true monsters can join the Peerless Peak.”

“At least you know something.”

In a restaurant, the youth whose second uncle smirked arrogantly and said complacently, “The Peerless Peak—its name says it all. Although this peak has few people, each one is invincible at their level. To them, fighting those above their levels is as easy as drinking or eating.”

“But even if they are from the Peerless Peak, how could they possibly threaten Prince Dawu and the others?” someone asked skeptically.

“What do you know? These people have yet to fully mature, so they, of course, can’t threaten Prince Dawu and the others. But do you know who their teacher is? Zhang Daoling, one of the ten known Void Immortal behemoths of the Tianwu Continent!”

“Hiss, hiss...”

Gasps filled the restaurant. In fact, the entire Holy Spirit Ancient Nation buzzed with discussion about that fateful battle.

When Chen Fan and the others' status as Peerless Peak disciples—and its significance in the True Martial Academy—was revealed, countless people were shaken.

Everyone had assumed Chen Fan and the others were ordinary academy disciples. Only after grasping the weight of ‘Peerless Peak’ did they realize the true terror of his group.

More details about Peerless Peak, Chen Fan, Huang Wuji, and the others soon surfaced, igniting yet another storm.

Of course, this storm wasn’t confined to the Holy Spirit Ancient Nation—it also swept through the Warring Nation, the Heavenly Goldenrain Nation, and the other ancient nations and great clans.

Yet, as this storm raged, another shocking piece of news shook the central continent: the marriage of Qin Yao and Beishan Hong.

Set for the eighth of the tenth month at the Phoenix Stage, they had invited the world to the banquet.

This news was announced jointly by the Ji Clan and the Sun Moon Divine Sect, sending waves through the continent. The marriage alliance between these two great powers became the hottest topic of discussion.

This news also spread to the Holy Spirit Ancient Nation.

With that, the spotlight shifted to the marriage alliance between the Ji Clan and the Sun Moon Divine Sect.

The marriage alliance was an event that sent shockwaves across the world.

“Heavens, the Great Jin Imperial Court’s Ji Clan and the Sun Moon Divine Sect have announced that their prodigies, Qin Yao and Beishan Hong, will marry in three months on the eighth of the tenth month at the Phoenix Stage. Are these two overlord class forces joining hands?”

“That’s right! I heard through the grapevine that immediately after the huge battle ended that day, a Legendary realm expert from the Ji Clan descended personally delivered an invitation to the sovereign.”

“The forces that received an invitation were all on the level of ten-thousand-year ancient nations, superpowers, super great cults. Ordinary factions don’t even qualify for such an honor.”

“Naturally. A marriage alliance of this level is beyond the reach of lesser forces.”

“This will be a huge event. The entire central continent will be talking about it.”

“Hoho, since the announcement was made to the world, even if we aren’t invited, we can also go to the wedding and witness this grand occasion to share the honor.”

“I don’t think you’re going for the ceremony—just want to cheat them of their food and drinks. On the big wedding day, their food will definitely not be ordinary. Consuming the spiritual fruits and wine will benefit one’s cultivation.”

“Hehe...”

The marriage alliance shook the entire central continent, eclipsing the huge battle in the Holy Spirit Ancient Nation. It became the hottest topic of conversation across the continent.

The sovereign’s palace, Holy Spirit Ancient Nation:

On this day, Chen Fan visited the sovereign’s palace to check on Zhuge Qingfeng.

Though heavily injured in the recent battle, Zhuge Qingfeng had mostly recovered by now. As he looked at Chen Fan, a faint smile appeared on his lips.

“Xiaofan, I have a request. I wish to take you as my godson, will you accept it?”

Chen Fan was momentarily stunned, caught off guard by the unexpected proposal.

However, given Zhuge Qingfeng’s status as sovereign, this was a clear sign of the high regard he held for Chen Fan.

However, he also understood that this wasn’t merely about status—it was a bond of mutual respect and shared ideals.

“If you’re not willing, you can decline it bluntly. I won’t put it to heart.” Zhuge Qingfeng chuckled.

“How could I dare not accept Your Majesty’s affection.” Chen Fan smiled and said, “However, my parents are alive and well. When I see them in the future, I must inform them and seek their consent.”

“That’s how it should be.” Zhuge Qingfeng nodded.
