Chapter 4107: Fatten Up Before Eating
n though she didn't know what Ginger Cloud was doing, she could tell from the fluctuations in his aura that he must have reached a critical point in his cultivation.And under this state, if Ginger Clo...According to Jiang Yun and Ling Shu's previous speculations, although it is uncertain whether the Emperor Xuan would personally come to the Mu family, at least it can be confirmed that the Emperor Xuan would definitely not exterminate the Mu family.
Because the Mu family was protected by the Spirit Tree, and as the ancestor of all trees in the Four Realms Sanctuary, the Spirit Tree provided life to all creatures within the Four Realms Sanctuary.
Once the Mu clan is eliminated, it will provoke a frenzied reprisal from the Ling tree, leading to a catastrophe that engulfs the entire Si Jing Zang.
Even the Emperor Xuan wouldn't dare to bear such consequences.
Otherwise, why would the Emperor Xundi go to such great lengths to transform Mu Ming into the realm of Mu Yi It would be more convenient to simply swallow the Ling Tree directly.
However, after Jiangyun and Lingshu had joined forces to take on Xundi's strike, Xundi's main body actually came in person. This was beyond Jiangyun and Lingshu's expectations.
Could it be that Emperor Xuan, enraged and ashamed, is recklessly determined to wipe out the Mu family and devour the Spirit Tree
With this doubt in mind, Jiang Yun gritted his teeth and stood up, transmitting his voice to Mu Luo who was still busy: "Clan Chief Mu, I'm going to the Spirit Tree."
After finishing his words, Jiang Yun no longer paid attention to the bewildered Mu Luo. He forcibly dragged his wounded body into the air and left the Mu family, heading towards where Ling Shu was located.
Looking at Gingercloud's departing back, Mulo's heart couldn't help but rise again with worry.
He didn't know how Jiangyun suddenly decided to go back to Lingshu, but this was definitely not good news.
Even, he couldn't help but suspect, was Jiang Yun going to take the opportunity to slip away! Until he used his divine sense to see that Jiang Yun had indeed arrived at the location of the Spirit Tree and sat cross-legged beneath it, he only slightly relaxed.
It seems like he was too badly injured to recover on his own, so he asked Lingshu to help him.
Milo actually guessed half of it right.
As Jiang Yun sat beneath the Spirit Tree, a massive amount of wood power surged from its body and flowed into his, effectively treating his injuries.
However, the Ling Shu Gang's purpose in healing Jiang Yun was to allow him to quickly recover his strength and prepare for the upcoming Emperor Xuan.
Although Gingercloud and Spirittree don't know Emperor Xuan's purpose for coming, they must prepare for the worst.
After resting, Jiang Yun's injuries had mostly healed, and his strength within him was also recovering. With a flash of his figure, he stood on the spirit tree, his eyes gleaming as he stared intently at the sky.
In the sky, a middle-aged man walked slowly.
The man stood silently there, only ten zhang away from Jiang Yun. His face was expressionless, his gaze fixed on Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun also looked at the man. Although there was no trace of aura emanating from him, and he even seemed to not exist at all, Jiang Yun knew in his heart that this man was none other than Emperor Xuan! After a moment, a kind smile suddenly appeared on Emperor Xuan's face as he spoke to Jiang Yun, "I've never met you before!"
The emperor's words, perhaps to others, sounded a bit nonsensical. But to Jiang Yun, they immediately raised a red flag of caution.
Because Jiang Yun is not a cultivator from the Four Realms Vault! Although Jiang Yun felt that even an emperor could not know every cultivator within the Four Realms Vault, he always felt that Emperor Xuan seemed to have vaguely sensed his identity.
Jiang Yun said calmly, "I've never seen you before!"
Then Emperor Xu continued to smile and asked, "Do you know who I am"
Jiang Yun replied in a deep voice, "Your Majesty!"
"Hēn Dì nodded and said: “Since you know I am the emperor, you can still be so calm, and even don’t bow to me. Is that right You simply don't treat this Emperor of mine in your eyes”
"I dare not!"
Jiang Yun said faintly, "I was just now disciplined by the Emperor. If I were to bow to him now, wouldn't it be too insincere!"
"Haha!"
The Emperor suddenly burst into laughter. "You are indeed extraordinary, most interesting!"
"Well, you haven't even begun to hate me yet. There's no way you can bow to me now."
Speaking of this, Emperor Xuan's tone suddenly shifted: "However, the emperor has the emperor's rules. Even if you hate me, when you see me, you should still pay your respects."
"Alright, as long as you can take my next strike, then everything that happened before can be forgotten!"
If you can't handle it, then I'll give you another lesson.
As his words fell, the Emperor Xu stretched out a finger and pointed it towards Jiang Yun.
This finger, it seems ordinary and unremarkable. However, in Jiang Yun's eyes, it had already replaced the sky.
However, Jiang Yun could also sense that the power contained in this finger was not very strong, even far inferior to the golden hairpin just now.
It seems, Emperor Xuan wasn't trying to kill me. He just wanted to give me a lesson.
Then, should one fully commit to catching it, or simply let this finger strike and learn from the lesson
And most importantly, Emperor Xuan came here himself, to see me, just to give himself another lesson
These thoughts flashed through Jiang Yun's mind like lightning, ultimately coalescing into a spark of insight that suddenly illuminated his understanding.
The next moment, Jiang Yun did not dodge or parry, nor did he strike back. He allowed the finger to land on his body.
"
Boom!"
Jiang Yun's body trembled violently, and he was directly knocked out of the air and onto the ground, smashing a huge crater into the earth.
The Emperor stood in the air, looking down at Jiang Yun who lay motionless in the center of the pit, as if already dead. A smile grew ever more pronounced on his face as he said, "Well, this matter is now over!"
After uttering these words, Emperor Xuan with a grand sweep of his sleeve, actually turned around. With a single step, he vanished without a trace.
Jiang Yun remained sprawled on the ground for more than an hour before slowly raising his head. He looked at the now empty sky, his expression grim.
Nearby, the Ling tree suddenly swayed gently once more and extended a strip of paper which wrapped around Jiang Yun's body, pulling him out of the pit and onto the ground.
Naturally, a great amount of wood power flowed into Jiang Yun's body incessantly.
Jiang Yun wiped the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the still swaying spirit tree, a wry smile on his face. "Although you're much older than me, you still understand human nature far too little."
Gingercloud could feel the joy emanating from the spirit tree at this moment.
Since Emperor Xuan has left and personally promised to erase this incident, it's a good thing for Jiang Yun, for the Mu family, and for Ling Shu. So Ling Shu is very happy.
But Jiang Yun was very clear that perhaps Ling Shu and the Mu family wouldn't have any more trouble, but himself, he had been remembered by Emperor Xuan.
The Emperor himself came rushing over, it wouldn't be just to give himself a lesson.
His true purpose, especially with that gesture of his, was probably to see just how many realms he possessed! In other words, he's now become the goal for Xuendi to achieve his own realms.
By wielding the power of wood to ignite flames and block the golden hairpin, he must have alerted Emperor Xuan that he had already attained both the Fire Intent and the Wood Intent.
Although I didn't make a move myself just now, I managed to withstand the Emperor Xuan's single finger. But with two aspects of my being, I am already enough to move the Emperor Xuan.
Swallowing oneself should similarly help him cultivate the mood of offense.
As for why Emperor Xuan didn't arrest himself right away, it was probably because his own state of mind wasn't pure enough yet.
Therefore, the Emperor Xuan would temporarily let him go and give him space to grow.
In short, it's about fattening yourself up before eating! Although Gingercloud understood this, she didn't tell Lingshu.
Anyway, there are already many people who remember him, so it doesn't matter if one more person remembers Emperor Xuan.
Moreover, since Emperor Xuan focused his target on himself, at least the Mu family and Ling Tree would be safe.
Therefore, the matter of fate has finally come to a satisfactory conclusion.
Gingercloud no longer dwelled on it. She decisively sat under the spirit tree, relying on its power to heal her injuries.
In just three short days, Ginger Cloud's injuries had already healed completely.
Standing up, Jiang Yun looked at the spirit tree and reached out again, striking a Fu Yao seal. Then, he gently placed it on the trunk of the spirit tree.
Inside the spirit tree, something appeared... and arrive in the Shan Hai Realm at this timeThis made the Taoist's heart involuntarily curse: "You are all trash, you can't even handle such a small matter. Just wait and see how I'll deal with you...
