MMB Chapter 1770 The Emperor Takes Action
Chapter 1770 The Emperor Takes Action
"why?"
Lee Ryder frowned and asked.
"The Twilight Society is not ready to begin recruitment yet," Chen Ling replied calmly.
Li Laid was stunned. No matter how hard he thought about it, he never expected it to be for this reason... Does Twilight Society have to be strict with the timing of recruitment?
"When you start recruiting, will I be able to get in?"
Om-! !
Just as Chen Ling was about to say something, the ground beneath their feet began to shake violently!
As a vast and oppressive aura crashed down from above, Li Laid felt his eardrums vibrate painfully... In a daze, he seemed to see an emperor-like figure descending from the sky, making his knees involuntarily weaken and instinctively wanting to submit and kowtow to him.
This is……
Lee Ryder's mind went blank; he was incapable of thinking, and he hadn't even seen the figure yet... Before him lay only the heavy ceiling and the dimly lit underground space.
All that he sensed was merely an illusion emanating from that imperial aura.
The mere scent can induce this kind of illusion...
Is that person's strength really that terrifying?
That emperor-like figure seemed to arrive with some inviolable will, even causing Li Leide's God of Thieves to waver. His legs involuntarily bent, instinct controlling his body, and he slowly knelt in a certain direction...
Just then, a hand landed on his shoulder.
The world-destroying pressure penetrated Li Laid's body, like a sudden influx of icy cold. This chill clashed with the emperor's pressure, causing Li Laid's slowly kneeling body to freeze in place!
"You're mine." A cold voice rang out from behind Li Laid.
"You...you are not allowed to kneel before him."
Lee Lede nervously swallowed.
Li Laid never imagined that one day he would become the target of the emperor's struggle against the world-ending calamity. However, Ying Fu's imperial pressure did not seem to be directed at him, but rather an indiscriminate intimidation of a wide range of creatures around him...
That emperor... actually took action himself?
In Li Lai's memory, the one in the palace had never made a move. Even when the various prisons faced emergencies, it was always the Dukes who were dispatched to handle them. Even though everyone in the world knew that the emperor, residing deep within the palace, was invincible, no one had ever seen him. Over time, it became a legend…
Some even began to spread rumors that the emperor had long since died of old age; others said that the emperor never existed in the first place, and was merely a story fabricated by the powerful nobles of the dynasty to intimidate the feudal lords.
But Li Laid never believed he was dead; otherwise, those parasites and wolves in the dynasty would have long since lost control and divided the world up.
Lee Ryder's mind raced, and at the same time, the ground above him trembled violently, countless cracks spreading across its surface. Dust pattered down from the cracks, followed by a deafening roar!
boom--! ! !
The entire Taishisi (Imperial Observatory) seemed to be uprooted by some force, even the ground was torn off. Li Laide felt a jolt above his head, and the original thick ground was replaced by the deep night sky.
He looked up and saw that the shattered Taishi Si was floating in the air in a strange way, as if an invisible giant hand had crushed and lifted it up.
And the source of that aura... extended far into the distance, pointing directly to the deep palace.
"This breath..."
"A ninth-tier demigod!?"
"Wasn't it said that neither of the two dukes were in the Chengtian Realm... Could it be..."
"It was that person who made the move!!"
"Hmph, who said His Majesty is nearing the end of his life and is incapable of fighting?"
"With this overwhelming imperial might, the rumors and gossip in the court, as well as the restless thoughts of those people, will probably disappear completely..."
"However, this calamity has been invading for some time now, why is Your Majesty only taking action now?"
"..."
Not only Li Laide was shocked, but also all the nobles, wealthy merchants and tycoons on the three main avenues of Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Azure Dragon.
They all gazed at the magnificent palace beneath the night sky, and without hesitation, prostrated themselves in worship under the overwhelming imperial majesty. Their foreheads touched the earth simultaneously, but their thoughts were not the same. Some were excited, some were puzzled, some were gratified, some were wary, and some were utterly despondent…
Besides.
The hazy starlight twinkled silently. Behind the deep palace walls, He Jing and Eunuch Zuo also turned back in shock to look at the palace gate...
Inside the palace, white gauze fluttered wildly without wind, and amidst the flickering candlelight, a figure sat quietly on the bed, his expression unreadable. As he raised his finger and pointed towards the Xuanwu Avenue, two divine stars simultaneously lit up from the void!
The palace gates were flung open with a thud, as if struck by a hurricane. He Jing and Eunuch Zuo retreated frantically to both sides in terror. At the same time, a vast imperial might emanated from the palace!
Xuanwu Avenue, amidst ruins.
Chen Ling saw two divine stars light up from the sky, and a solemn look appeared in her eyes.
The two demigod paths merged rapidly, and in an instant, the starlight seemed to be enveloped by the grid of the chessboard, falling from the sky... like an enormous drop of starlight, and directly below it were Chen Ling and Li Leide on the Xuanwu Avenue.
Immediately afterwards, sharp strokes emerged from the surface of the starry sky. They intertwined and formed a large, cursive "fist" character, which contained the weight of the entire starry sky and crashed down on Chen Ling and the other person like a meteor!
The violent wind pressure blew stones off the ruins, and the hem of the opera robe billowed up. Chen Ling squinted at the fist of the starry sky, lost in thought.
Li Lai De, standing to the side, was pale with nervousness.
Ying Fu's attack was definitely at the demigod level, and it was also a fusion of two divine paths. Ordinary demigods would have no chance against it... Li Lai De was only a fourth-order demigod after all. Facing a demigod's attack directly was too oppressive for him. He even found it extremely difficult to move a finger.
He could only watch helplessly as the Starry Sky Fist hurtled down from the palace, aiming to obliterate him and Chen Ling completely!
"His Majesty has made a move!!"
"Such a powerful aura... Is this His Majesty's strength?!"
"This strike, even an apocalyptic calamity would find it difficult to withstand! Long live Your Majesty!!!"
"Drive this damned catastrophe out of the Chengtian Realm!!"
"Kill it!! Kill it!!"
"..."
Ying Fu's attack directly ignited the fighting spirit of the entire realm. Shouts rose and fell in the night sky, and the malice of millions of people, along with that starry fist, was directed at Chen Ling on the ruins!
"What should we do?" Li Laide looked at Chen Ling, his face pale.
Chen Ling calmly gazed up at the fist of the starry sky. The next second, lines resembling lava cracks spread from the mark between his eyebrows, gradually spreading throughout his body...
A similarly surging aura burst forth from his body!
"You think you've become a demigod..."
"So you can kill me?"

I'm having a severe writer's block today, and I've only managed to squeeze out one chapter so far... Happy New Year to everyone!
