Divine King of Honour

Outside the Demon Emperor's Tomb, the earth shook.

The mist in the deep forest gradually dissipated.

The prohibitive enchantments that originally shrouded the forest vanished completely at this moment.

"The enchantment is gone, someone has seized the Dragon Vein, we must not let him escape."

The saints from various forces, who had been hiding in the shadows, were attracted by this commotion.

They all approached Death Valley.

With no enchantments to obstruct them,

the checkpoints in Death Valley were practically non-existent for them.

They arrived at the plaza outside the great gates of the Demon Emperor's Tomb almost unimpeded.

The gates opened, and those who had entered the Demon Emperor's Tomb and survived

now poured out all at once.

Seeing these saints gathered together, they showed expressions of surprise.

Knowing that a great battle was about to erupt.

However, they didn't know who had seized the Dragon Vein,

nor whether the forces behind him could withstand the attacks of so many saints.

"Whoosh!"

Ye Lan's figure flew out from the gate.

Upon seeing two saints from the Ye Family, she immediately ran over to them.

"Two Elders..."

"We already know what happened inside, don't worry. Whoever dares to kill someone from our Ye Family will find it hard to escape, even if they grow wings."

Before Ye Lan could speak, the leading elder of the Ye Family coldly huffed.

Ye Lan's face also showed a trace of ferocity upon hearing this.

In her view, no matter how powerful Xu Nian was,

facing so many saints,

he would hardly escape death today.

Besides the Ye Family,

the expressions of the two saints from the Fang Family were extremely cold, filled with killing intent.

All their family members had perished.

And the chief culprit was none other than Xu Nian, whom they had been seeking!

They felt that the overall situation was critical and decided to wait until after the Dragon Vein conflict to pursue Xu Nian.

But they didn't anticipate that because of their negligence,

Xu Nian would wreck their Fang Family's major plans.

The Imperial Family also wore similarly grim expressions.

At the forefront stood a middle-aged man in brocaded robes.

This man had a cold face and his eyes brimmed with killing intent.

Though he was alone,

he prompted the surrounding saints to unconsciously stay away from him.

Their gazes towards the middle-aged man were filled with a measure of heaviness.

"Whoosh!"

At that moment, five figures walked out from the gate.

Indeed, these five were Xu Xin, Leng Cangfeng, and the others.

"Cangfeng, well done!" the leading saint of the Leng Family commended Leng Cangfeng who approached.

"Grandpa Feng, I really didn't do anything," Leng Cangfeng said with a wry smile.

"Ha ha, just coming out alive is already commendable. I've also received the information you sent back; if things are as you say, there might be a great spectacle to watch today," Leng Qingfeng said with a smile, stroking his beard.

Behind him, another elder also wore a smile.

They were the saints sent by the Leng Family this time.

Leng Cangfeng heard this and helplessly shook his head.

"Then what does Grandpa Feng plan to do?" Leng Cangfeng asked.

Leng Qingfeng and the elder beside him exchanged glances and smiled, "Like you, we're just here to watch the excitement and won't take action."

Leng Cangfeng heard this and immediately sighed in relief.

If the two family elders before him had planned to intervene, he would have had to spend some effort persuading them.

However, he hadn't expected the two family elders to voluntarily give up, which was somewhat surprising to him.

"However, even if we don't intervene, it won't be easy for that Xu Nian you mentioned to get through this ordeal!"

Leng Qingfeng said with a faint smile.

Leng Cangfeng nodded, his expression solemn.

The Saints from all major powers had gathered here.

Even with the backing of the Artifact Refining Sect, how could Xu Nian withstand such numerous forces.

Xu Nian had killed so many, the forces behind these individuals would definitely not let matters rest.

At the same time, the Xu Family was having a discussion.

"Xu Tian, are you telling the truth, is the Artifact Refining Sect Master really Xu Nian?" Xu He asked, his expression grave.

"Reporting to the Elder, every word is true," Xu Tian replied.

Xu He's brows furrowed instantly.

No wonder the looks from the people of the Fang and Ye Families had been so hostile from the moment they arrived.

It turned out to be because of Xu Nian.

Xu Nian had offended the Fang Family, Ye Family, the Imperial Family, and Tianjian Sect—all four great forces at once.

And this debt might very likely be attributed to them.

"Elder, what should we do?" Xu Tian asked.

Xu He, upon hearing this, fell into deep thought.

Xu Xin, seeing this, became immediately anxious.

Of course, seeing so many Saints guarding outside the tomb.

She knew her brother was facing a great peril.

Now, all she could do was to convince the Xu Family's Saints to save Xu Nian.

"Elder Xu He, Xu Nian is one of our Xu Family, you can't ignore this!" Xu Xin said.

Hearing this, Xu He looked at Xu Xin.

Seeing Xu Xin's anxious expression.

He realized the relationship between Xu Xin and Xu Nian.

To be honest, he too was shocked when he heard of Xu Nian's actions.

A youth not yet eighteen, was actually the Artifact Refining Sect Master.

And had also killed so many from great powers.

Such a thing was absolutely unprecedented on this continent.

Originally, having such a genius in their Xu Family was supposed to be a great joyous occasion.

But now, if they were to acknowledge Xu Nian, it would mean standing against the Four Great Forces.

That was definitely not something their Xu Family could bear!

Thinking of this, Xu He shook his head.

This Xu Nian, could not be protected!

"Elder, Xu Nian must have already seized the Dragon Veins, if we protect him, then the Dragon Veins will belong to our Xu Family."

Seeing Xu He shake his head, Xu Xin immediately argued with reason.

However, Xu He still shook his head.

This was no longer just about the Dragon Veins.

If Xu Nian had not killed so many,

Just because of the Dragon Veins, he would have protected him at all costs.

Other forces, even if pressing, would not press too hard.

But Xu Nian had killed so many, including an Imperial Prince.

This was definitely a fight to the death.

His Xu Family would not make themselves mortal enemies to the Four Great Forces over the Dragon Veins.

Seeing this, Xu Xin's heart instantly grew cold.

A bitter smile appeared on her lips.

This was her so-called family?

But soon, Xu Xin's gaze hardened again.

Today, even if it meant death, she would die along with her brother.

Xu He, seeing Xu Xin's expression, sighed helplessly.

His decision might mean losing not one, but two talents!

"Look, someone else is coming out!"

Just then, a shout came from the crowd.

Everyone turned their eyes toward the grand entrance of the Demon Emperor's Tomb.

At this point, nearly everyone who could come out had already done so.

Now, if someone else was coming out, it could only be one person!

Sure enough, under everyone's watchful eyes, a youth slowly walked out from the grand entrance.

"It's really him!"

In that moment, everyone's eyes shone with light.

There was worry, there was curiosity.

But most of all, there was killing intent!
