Chapter 847: Hidden Master_1
"It's all right, Grandpa is all right," both Long Wusheng and Luo Gushen shook their heads in unison, saying with smiles.
"Thank goodness, Chu Qin arrived just in time!"
"Otherwise, would this old life of mine have been left behind here?"
"Sheng Lai Ru Tian, what exactly is going on here?" Chu Qin then turned to Sheng Lai and Ru Tian, and said, "Aren't all the people from the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family dead? How could they be working with the Blood Demon?"
"Elder Chu Qin, I remember now, these people, they didn't die," Sheng Lai replied, "they are the group who entered the black hole."
Chu Qin then recalled something. When he destroyed the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family, some of them had fled into the black hole.
Back then, one of Chu Qin's clones had died inside the black hole, so Chu Qin had assumed they all perished as well.
Now it seemed, this black hole was not so simple.
"Then, why would the Blood Demon attack the Ancient Family?" Xi E asked, following up.
"Indeed," Luo Gushen added, voicing his doubt, "The Blood Demon was previously controlled by the Immortal Buddha, but the Immortal Buddha has already been killed by Chu Qin, so that control should have been lifted. We can understand the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family attacking us, but why would the Blood Demon attack us? And those four mysterious experts, where did they come from?"
Chu Qin fell into deep thought, immediately recalling the words of the Azure Dragon.
After he had wiped out the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family, people from the Supreme God Court had appeared.
Could it be that these four mysterious experts were all from the Supreme God Court? Otherwise, where else could these experts, as powerful as the Supreme Demon Sovereign, have come from?
But what was the objective of the Supreme God Court?
To destroy the Ancient Family?
Chu Qin felt that it was not that simple.
If the people from the Supreme God Court were so formidable, four of them would be enough to annihilate the Ancient Family on their own. Why bother sending out the Blood Demon and bringing along the members of the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family?
"This time, we were fortunate the Gate of Heaven and Earth held back their attack," the Dragon Emperor then sighed, "otherwise, we might not have been able to wait for you, Chu Qin."
"The Gate of Heaven and Earth!" Xi E suddenly thought of something, her expression shifting with alarm as she spoke,
"Xiao'e, what is wrong?" Chu Qin asked, looking at Xi E.
Xi E quickly turned to look at Sheng Lai Ru Tian and others, "None of the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family's people entered Luo Wang Star, did they?"
"None!" Sheng Lai Ru Tian shook his head.
Xi E let out a sigh of relief, then turned to the others, commanding, "You, immediately go and exterminate all remaining forces that have entered the Middle Ancient Great World and repair the Pangu Formation. Additionally, all members of the Pangu Family guard Luo Wang Star, no one is to enter!"
"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.
"Xiao Qiu, Xiao Qi, Zhu Yan, you three go too!" Chu Qin said, looking at the three supremely powerful beings beside him.
"Chu Qin, come with me," Xi E said to Chu Qin, her face showing concern.
"Just me?" Chu Qin asked.
"Yes," Xi E nodded.
"Then Ning'er, Xiaowu, Yina, you all wait here for a while?" Chu Qin looked at Huo Ninger, Xiaowu, and others.
"It's fine, go ahead, Chu Qin," the Life God King said with a smile. She knew, Xi E must have something important to discuss, which could only be shared with Chu Qin.
With that, Chu Qin and Xi E rushed towards the inner regions of Luo Wang Star.
The two sped along, eventually arriving over a mysterious sea within Luo Wang Star.
At that time, Xi E directed her gaze toward Chu Qin, who saw her concern and reassured her with a smile, "Don't worry, Xiao'e, no one has followed us."
Xi E then nodded and shouted to the surroundings, "Where is the Zhenhai Sacred Beast?"
As Xi E's words fell, a thundering roar that resounded throughout the seas erupted, and shortly after, a white-haired old man appeared before Xi E, saying, "Zhenhai Beast, at the service of the Pangu Empress."
Elder Chu Qin was immediately slightly startled because he realized that the Zhenhai Beast had actually reached the level of a Semi-step Saint Emperor.
That meant this person was even more formidable than Xi E, as powerful as the Supreme Demon Sovereign, and excluding himself, the strongest in the Ancient Family!
Yet such a powerful being was merely guarding an ocean and hadn't even participated in the recent battle.
"Zhenhai Beast, has there been any unusual activity here?" Xi E asked the Zhenhai Beast.
The Zhenhai Beast shook its head, "Pirate Empress, rest assured, no one has entered!"
"This is Elder Chu Qin from the Ancient Family, the current Supreme Elder," Xi E introduced to the Zhenhai Beast.
"My respects, Pirate Empress, I had recognized him long ago," the Zhenhai Beast spoke, "Although I am located within this ocean, I am somewhat aware of external affairs. Moreover, Elder Chu Qin's strength surpasses mine; truly an extraordinary genius of the ages."
"You flatter me," Elder Chu Qin said with a light smile.
Xi E responded with an indifferent smile and said to the Zhenhai Beast, "Open the gate, I want to take a look inside."
"Yes!" As soon as the Zhenhai Beast's voice fell, its palm stretched out towards the sea surface, and a marine vortex appeared in an instant.
Xi E glanced at Chu Qin, who nodded, and then the two of them entered the vortex.
After passing through the vortex, Xi E and Chu Qin arrived in a mysterious palace.
This palace had iron walls on all sides constructed from special materials, and in the center, a figure was shackled with hundreds of thick chains.
These chains were adorned with runes and golden light, resembling an ancient array.
The array was locking up an elderly figure with white hair, who appeared frail and was on the verge of death.
Elder Chu Qin was momentarily startled, not because of the array, but because of the old man.
This elder was actually a Saint Emperor powerhouse!
But the strangest part wasn't that. What was odd was that Chu Qin sensed another terrifying power within the Saint Emperor, clearly surpassing a Saint Emperor—undoubtedly a Supreme God!
At that moment, Chu Qin thought of the words Yuè Yīnà had once said. The Pangu Family, aside from being descendants of Pangu Shidi, were also the earliest possessors of Sealing Beasts.
In other words, the Saint Emperor powerhouse before him might well be the member of the Pangu Family who possessed a Sealing Beast.
And inside the Saint Emperor's body was the Sealing Beast!
An incredibly powerful Sealing Beast!
"Xi E pays respects to the great-great-grandfather!" At this moment, Xi E walked in front of the elder and knelt down to say.
"Xiao'e...you... how did you get here!" The elder weakly raised his head and looked at Xi E with a bit of surprise.
"Great-great-grandfather, just now, people from the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family nearly destroyed the Middle Ancient Great World with some others!" Xi E responded.
"What!" The elder exclaimed, startled.
"Indeed, not only were there people from the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family but also Blood Demons and several mysterious persons," Xi E continued.
"However, great-great-grandfather, rest assured, all these people have been killed by Chu Qin," added Xi E, looking towards Chu Qin as she spoke.
"Chu Qin, this is my great-great-grandfather, the strongest of the Ancient Family from the era before the Primordial Epoch, the Chaos Saint Emperor!" Xi E explained to Chu Qin.
"You are?" Upon hearing this, Chaos Saint Emperor looked toward Chu Qin.
"Greetings to the Primordial senior. I am Xiao'e's man, the current Supreme Elder of the Ancient Family, Chu Qin," Chu Qin replied placidly.
"So you are Chu Qin. The Zhenhai Beast has mentioned you to me," said the Chaos Saint Emperor, managing a slight smile.
Then he turned to Xi E, and his expression changed slightly, "The Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family was supposed to have been annihilated by Chu Qin. How could they possibly make a comeback, and who are those mysterious powerhouses?"
