Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws-Novel

Chapter 616: The Sovereigns Gather at the Seven Emotion Sects, The Toxin Sovereign’s Arrival

In the Seven Emotions Sect.

As one of the archaic orthodoxies in Emperor Road, the Seven Emotions Sect was considered one of the formidable forces in the realm.

Yet today, the Seven Emotions Sect was in danger.

In the grand hall of the Seven Emotions Sect.

Lady Leng Yue was facing back and forth with unease.

At that instance.

Leng Ningyu and Chi Yue entered the scene.

“Honorable Teacher, another Sovereign has arrived.”

Chi Yue announced solemnly.

There were more than a few figures levitating above the Seven Emotions Sect now. Each of them was emitting a domineering Sovereign’s Aura.

The Sovereigns were the strongest warriors of their respective orthodoxies, each of them representing an individual feared by most people.

However, the Sovereigns were now congregating at a single spot.

It was an incredibly rare occurrence.

“Another? Who’s it this time?”

Lady Leng Yue asked.

There were already a lot of Sovereigns here. How was it that they kept coming one after another?

Was there an end to it?

“It’s the Sovereign of the Runic Lands, Xiao Fuhuang.”

“Even that old man’s here now.”

Lady Leng Yue was surprised. She had read about Xiao Fuhuang in one of the archives.

Xiao Fuhuang was notorious for his longevity. He had resided in the Emperor Road for more than one thousand years, a lifespan that was considered too great even for a Sovereign.

“Honourable Teacher, are all these Sovereigns here just to destroy Brother Chu? Is it even necessary?” Chi Yue was puzzled.

Each of the Sovereigns present was a figure that could be found in the ancient archives. They were living legends of Emperor Road.

If it were not for the dwindling of Dharma back then, these figures would likely have ascended into Emperors.

To add irony to the situation, all of them were now gathering to kill Chu Kuangren.

What a ridiculous scene.

No matter how powerful Chu Kuangren was, he was just a young sky-pride after all!

“It is.”

Leng Ningyue nodded solemnly. “As long as Brother Chu is alive, their sky-prides stand no chance in ascension. They will always live in Brother Chu’s shadow, suppressed for the rest of their lives. The Sovereigns are here to ensure the generations after them have a future.”

“Hmph, what a pompous way to put it. In truth, they’re just here to stir unnecessary drama because their young ones are too weak to win a fight.”

Chi Yue lightly snorted.

Lady Leng Yue could not refute her statement either.

After all, Chi Yue was simply speaking the truth.

“Senior Sister, do you think Brother Chu will come?”

“I don’t know.”

Leng Ningyu shook her head.

“Well, do you hope he comes?” Chi Yue prompted further.

Leng Ningyu was stunned for a moment. After a brief moment of silence, she shook her head once more. “I don’t know either.”

She wanted to see Chu Kuangren.

On the other hand, she did not want Chu Kuangren to risk his life. Yet, Chu Kuangren’s absence would spell great danger for her orthodoxy.

Leng Ningyu was in a great dilemma.

She had never felt such mixed emotions before.

Ever since her encounter with Chu Kuangren, Leng Ningyu had noticed a drastic increase in her mood swings.

Chi Yue and Lady Leng Yue exchanged looks.

It seemed like Leng Ningyu had truly fallen for Chu Kuangren.

In fact, she was falling deeper and deeper.

“Sigh, let’s just figure a way to get past this hurdle.”

…

Outside the Seven Emotions Sect.

There were more than a dozen figures levitating up in the air. Amongst the crowd was the Tempest Sword Sovereign, Holy Light’s Chief Sovereign, and Dark Shadow’s Chief Sovereign.

The Tempest Sword Sovereign was looking at a lady near the Seven Emotion Sect’s grand entrance and said, “Sovereign Ying, you still have two days. If Chu Kuangren does not appear in two days, we will make our moves.”

The face of the lady, who was Sovereign Ying, sank.

She was the Sovereign of Seven Emotions Sect. Sovereign Ying had just left her ancestral land after refining the Divine Pardon Order before she was thrown into such a desperate situation.

Alas, as the Sovereign of the Seven Emotions Sect, she had no choice but to face it.

“Hmph, you scrums! I didn’t think you guys would resort to such lowly methods after failing to capture Chu Kuangren. You’re truly useless for a Sovereign.”

“Whatever. You still have two days to meet our demands.”

The Tempest Sword Sovereign uttered indifferently.

Having lived for countless years, he had heard his fair amount of insults. Sovereign Ying needed to do way more than that to get under his skin.

“Hmph.”

Sovereign Ying snorted. Although she appeared unfazed on the outside, she was panicking within. If Chu Kuangren did not show up, the Seven Emotions Sect would be in grave danger!

She turned around and walked into the grand hall.

“Still can’t find Chu Kuangren?”

Sovereign Ying asked Leng Yue.

“No,” Leng Yue answered helplessly. She had exhausted all of the communication channels she could find within the Seven Emotions Sect.

Yet, there was no trace of Chu Kuangren.

In hindsight, it was not surprising.

If Chu Kuangren had made it his goal to hide, who could possibly locate him?

If Chu Kuangren could be found so easily, the Sword Tribe, demonic tribe, and all the other orthodoxies would not have resorted to making a scene at the Seven Emotions Sect to force Chu Kuangren out from hiding.

“Sovereign Ying, even if we can find Chu Kuangren, are we really going to reveal his location to them?” Chi Yue said with a frown.

“What other choices do we have? Would you rather have the Seven Emotions Sect destroyed just for him?” Sovereign Ying said unfazed.

Since she had not met Chu Kuangren, Sovereign Ying had no sentiment towards him.

Between the Seven Emotion Sects and an utter stranger, she would definitely choose the Seven Emotion Sects anytime.

Although Chi Yue and Lady Leng Yue were well aware of Sovereign Ying’s rationale, they could not help but feel a little uneasy. Nonetheless, they did not refute further.

The Seven Emotions Sect was in a life-or-death situation, and Chu Kuangren was key in breaking them out of the situation.

Besides, Sovereign Ying wielded the greatest amount of power within the Seven Emotion Sects. There was nothing Lady Leng Yue could do even if she were to vehemently disagree.

“Hm? Someone’s here.”

At that moment, Sovereign Ying abruptly looked outside the Seven Emotion Sect strangely. There was a sudden glimmer of joy written over Chi Yue and Leng Ningyu’s faces.

Was Chu Kuangren finally here?

Unfortunately, their hopes were immediately crushed when they realized who the newly arrived guest was. Chi Yue even grimaced at his arrival. “Why does it have to be this b*stard?”

Two silhouettes appeared outside the Seven Emotion Sect. It was an elderly person followed by that of a younger person.

The duo glided across the air and soon landed near the Seven Emotion Sect’s grand entrance where they stood face to face with the group of Sovereigns.

As the Sovereigns’ sight fell onto the elderly person, they could not help but feel an uncomfortable staleness in the air.

The elderly person’s eyes were almost sinking into his socket as it fitted into his frail and wrinkled skin. There was an endless stream of grey qi circulating around his body.

That grey qi gave the Sovereigns a deep sense of discomfort, as if it was a terrifying being.

“It’s him, the Toxin Sovereign!”

Some of the more knowledgeable Sovereigns pointed out.

The Toxin Sovereign was one of the most remarkable Sovereigns thousands of years ago. As such, many Sovereigns had caught wind of his reputation.

“Hehe. I heard that you’re all looking for Chu Kuangren as well. I hope you don’t mind me joining the party.” The Toxin Sovereign cackled and said.

“Are you here to help him or kill him?”

The Tempest Sword Sovereign asked.

“Kill him.”

“Well, welcome to the party,” said the Tempest Sword Sovereign.

Sovereign Ying was bewildered by the scene. “Just how many people did Chu Kuangren provoke? I could see why the Sovereign of the orthodoxies would want to kill him. After all, they’re clearing the path for their future generations.”

“But the Toxin Sovereign? This person has always acted on his own and even disappeared many millennia ago. Why would he reappear at this time and kill Chu Kuangren at that?”

Lady Leng Yue was helpless as well. “Oh, Brother Chu. Your ability to offend others is a tad too impressive.”
