Imperial God Emperor

Chapter 1359 - The Hooligan, Little Nine

It was Little Nine?

Somehow, it emerged from the surface of a star and even remembered the way to this battlefield. It had overcome countless restrictions and rushed over across the vast sea of stars.

”Roar... No one is allowed to touch my human pet.”

The insane roar of Little Nine traveled across the void of the universe and shook the skies.

It seemed to have sensed that Ye Qingyu was in danger. They seemed to have some sort of telepathy with each other.

Ye Qingyu, who was in a state of battle with his inner demons, could also sense the arrival of Little Nine.

He stood up suddenly, without caring about the grasp of his inner demons. He looked far into the distance and shouted, ”Go back, who allowed you to come...”

The enemies he was facing were too terrifying. All of them, including the three great King of Sovereign-level beings and Jiang Xiaohan, were all fright-inducing characters, and even though Little Nine’s talent was exceptional, it was still not fully developed. Charging into the fray at this moment would do Ye Qingyu no good; instead, the silly dog would be putting itself in danger. Its life would be on the line, and there was no way Ye Qingyu could be unworried about something like that.

The white flash from a great distance did not retreat. Instead, its speed amplified.

”Roar...Woof, I’m very loyal, and, woof, you’re my human pet. Woof, I have to protect you.”

Little Nine’s furious roar shook the universal void. It seemed to contain a mysterious power that could shake the Wisp God of Consciousness’s guzheng sound.

”Hmm?” Jiang Xiaohan exclaimed, having also noticed this fact. A surprised look appeared in her eyes.

”Roar, roar, roar... Woof, woof, woof!” Little Nine’s speed was extremely fast, and the white flash tore through the void and charged toward them with insane ferocity. He let out a string of furious roars and shrieks that contained a strange power that could seemingly suppress the Wisp God of Consciousness’s guzheng sound.

Ye Qingyu abruptly sensed that he was greatly relieved of the effects of his inner demons taking control of himself.

”Stop it,” Jiang Xiaohan shouted.

Of course, the King of Destruction and the Abandoned Fiendgod had already sensed that something was not right. Furthermore, they observed the change in Ye Qingyu’s expression and immediately sensed that this was their chance. Since Ye Qingyu valued this huge white dog so highly, they might be able to obtain the method of devouring a King of Sovereigns’ aura by capturing it, controlling it, and using it as a hostage against Ye Qingyu.

”Get lost... Anyone who harms my human pet has to die.”

Little Nine behaved as though it had turned insane. Furthermore, its body had expanded many times over, and it looked like a gigantic beast from the stars. It let out an angry roar, and a visible wave of energy exploded out of its mouth, hurtling toward them. The Abandoned Fiendgod and the King of Destruction were the first people in its path, and both of their expressions changed as they retreated at an unholy speed...

This was because they could sense the threat in the strange sonic wave.

How could this be?

The expressions of both peak level experts changed.

How could a mere battle pet possess the ability to make them feel threatened?

In the blink of an eye, the silly dog burst through the combined defenses of the Abandoned Fiendgod and the King of Destruction and arrived in front of the [Cloud Top Cauldron].

It kept roaring angrily and made shrieking sounds.

The Wisp God of Consciousness kept retreating.

It seemed to have sensed the threat posed by Little Nine.

The black mist floating above Ye Qingyu’s head dispersed a little. The power of his inner demons was gradually being suppressed by him.

”Brother Qingyu...” came a voice from Little Nine’s back.

Song Xiaojun leaped down from the dog, an unconcealable look of concern on her face of peerless beauty.

Unexpectedly, the Six Divine Generals, Old Fish, Shadow Warrior, Million-year-old soul, Great Emperor Xiaofei, Lingyun, Great Commander Sun Yi, Empress Shui Xiu, Jin Ling’er, Bai Yuanxing, and the other Emperor-level experts from the Vast Thousand Star Domains were standing behind Song Xiaojun on Little Nine’s back. Among this group of people, a few like Song Xiaojun, Jin Ling’er, Great Emperor Xiaofei, and some others already possessed the luck of other star systems and had become Sovereign-level beings. Their aura was immense.

”You guys... retreat, quickly.”

Ye Qingyu was greatly moved and anxious at the same time.

Numbers counted for nothing. Even hundreds of Sovereign-level experts would be no stronger than ants before King of Sovereigns, and they could slaughter tens of thousands of them with a thought. He could already observe that Little Nine’s angry roars were indeed capable of affecting the Wisp God of Consciousness’s magical music abilities, but its strength and level of cultivation was too far behind that of the Wisp God of Consciousness. It could not possibly hold on for much longer.

”Woof... I don’t care, whoever dares to... woof... hurt my human pet... woof... I’ll fight to the death with him or her.” Little Nine let out furious roars like a great Lion of the Stars and stepped back slowly.

”Brother Qingyu, let us fight alongside you,” Song Xiaojun said, her resolute expression somewhat pleading.

”That’s right, the fate of the Vast Thousand Star Domains can’t be borne by His Majesty alone,” Empress Shui Xiu said. Her long hair flew with the wind, and her seemingly gentle facial features contained a form of calm and tenacity that was hard to turn down.

”If you lose, Your Majesty, and the Vast Thousand Domains end up facing their demise, we’ll still follow Your Majesty to the end. Why don’t we fight to the death today?” The Million-year-old soul, Liu Shaji, Ferryman of the Netherworld, and others stood side by side with each other. There was a bloodthirsty aura on them. Evidently, they had also gone through a bloody battle in the fight on the surface of the stars.

”That’s right, the battle on the surface has already been concluded, and our side has won a complete victory,” Great Emperor Xiaofei said with a smile. ”You’ve expended much effort and energy for the Vast Thousand Star Domains for a long while and made a considerable amount of sacrifice. Now, we should also take up a bit of responsibility, and hopefully, we will face our fate bravely.”

Bai Yuqing stared directly at Jiang Xiaohan, her eyes burning with the bright desire to fight.

Both of them were nemeses, and she thought that Jiang Xiaohan has already died in battle, only to find out that she survived, and that she had appeared at such a crucial stage. Bai Yuqing suddenly realized that the Jiang Xiaohan in front of her was not only her enemy, but an enemy of the entire Vast Thousand Star Domains as well. Compared to taking revenge for the entire star system, her personal feud seemed inconsequential.

No matter what, she had to fight Jiang Xiaohan again today. Even if she would end up injured in the universal void, it would be worth it.

”We’re willing to follow Your Majesty to the death,” Wen Wan, Gao Diping, and Divine Generals Zhi and Jue said solemnly. Even Wang Lijin, who was usually afraid of death, seemed spirited in nature now.

Ye Qingyu’s gaze swept across the group of people before him. He had planned on telling them to leave, but now, the words could not come out of his mouth.

Eventually, his gaze fell on the Old Fish.

Old Fish glared back and blew a mouthful of air into its beard. ”What are you looking at me for? I wasn’t the one who led them here.”

Ye Qingyu suddenly had an urge to laugh as he looked at the Old Fish’s expression.

At this moment, the Wisp God of Consciousness’s music changed again and transformed into a long resounding sound of drums. It exploded, releasing the goosebump-inducing sounds of an ironclad cavalry in war, as if there were tens of thousands of them charging toward Little Nine. The killing intent of the attack was simply bone-chilling.

”Pfft... woof,” Little Nine roared angrily, fresh blood streaming out of its mouth.

Ye Qingyu’s expression changed.

”That’s not good... [Cloud Top Cauldron], suppress!”

Ye Qingyu roared, activating the cauldron without concern that the effects of his inner demons had still not completely subsided. He released an immense amount of suppressive force, shielding Little Nine, the Old Fish, and the others within the [Cloud Top Cauldron].

”Kill!”

He summoned the Life Sword. The power of the sword, which was enough to break tens of thousands of other techniques, slashed out again.

The sword radiance, which looked like a ray of divine light from the Primordial Age, directly shot toward the Wisp God of Consciousness.

In an instant, Ye Qingyu had unleashed the [Ninth Limit] of the [Limitless Divine Way]. It could be considered as his final trump card and strongest power.

”Stop it,” the Wisp God of Consciousness ordered. It spoke for the first time, emitting a strange, screeching sound that sounded like a baby’s cry after sensing the destructive force emitted within the sword blow.

The Abandoned Fiendgod and the King of Destruction moved without any hesitation, using their bodies to shield the others from the sword’s sharpness.

They had to.

Otherwise, if the Wisp God of Consciousness was severely injured or fled, they would also be impacted. Neither of them had a way to stand against Ye Qingyu on their own, and their fate would be a terrible one.

Neither party in this fight could afford to retreat now.

Boom, boom!

Both King of Sovereigns were sent flying, their blood scattering across the skies.

They put their lives on the line to block the attack and were seriously wounded before eventually managing to stop the attack. The Wisp God of Consciousness was left unharmed.

Using the opening afforded to him, the Wisp God of Consciousness played his guzheng music again, causing Ye Qingyu’s inner demons to be stimulated.

Ye Qingyu stumbled within the void. The black mist above him, which was about to subside earlier, surged out from within his body again and circled his entire body. Evidently, after successfully channeling Ye Qingyu’s inner demons, the Wisp God of Consciousness’s level of mastery over them had reached terrifying heights. This time, just hearing the start of the melody gave Ye Qingyu little room to resist.

As the black mist, which symbolized Ye Qingyu’s inner demons, intensified and wrapped around him, his consciousness began to blur. He tried his best to resist, but it was as futile as someone fighting through quicksand. The more he resisted, the harder he fell. Eventually, his entire aura began to turn evil.

Once one’s inner demons had been stimulated, it would be hard to keep them under control.

Those under the [Cloud Top Cauldron] began to feel extremely anxious as they witnessed the scene.

Song Xiaojun and the others combined forces to break free from the cauldron’s light shield to no avail. They wanted to fight alongside Ye Qingyu but ended up trapped within the confines of the cauldron. They were shielded within it and were unable to strike. They could only watch as they observed Ye Qingyu trapped in a dangerous situation.

”No, Brother Qingyu...” Song Xiaojun said tearfully.

At this moment, she seemed to recollect the very same Ye Qingyu that protected her at all times in White Deer Academy, shielding her from all danger and slander. Since a long, long time ago, this man had always been protecting her in this manner. She hated herself for not being strong and capable enough to share his burden, even up to today.

”Woof, woof, woof...” Little Nine roared angrily. It was incredibly frustrated, and all the white hairs on its body were standing up.

It was injured considerably, but it did not bother recuperating or tending to its wounds. Instead, it smashed itself again and again against the wall of light of the [Cloud Top Cauldron], as if it were insane. Eventually, it managed to burst through the defensive light barrier and directly charge out of the cauldron’s confines.

It shrieked angrily and got close to Ye Qingyu, giving out earth-shattering roars of fury, disrupting the Wisp God of Consciousness’s music. It wanted to help Ye Qingyu, who was about to completely succumb to his inner demons, to awaken.

”Kill that dog,” the Wisp God of Consciousness shrieked.

The King of Destruction and the Abandoned Fiendgod had no choice but to obey. They moved in unison and attacked Little Nine.

”Pfft!”

Silly Dog’s huge body was pierced through.

Blood scattered into the air.

It seemed to be completely unaware of its injuries and kept roaring and shrieking in anger, as if it was expending its own life to shout, intending to use the sonic force to awaken Ye Qingyu.

It did not even counter or evade its opponent’s blows, allowing their destructive attacks to rain down on its body. Instead, it spent every possible second roaring. This was because it could see that Ye Qingyu was on the brink of succumbing, and there was no time to dally or hesitate. If it did, there was no saving his human pet.

Boom!

Little Nine’s limbs were broken, and its fur and skin split open.

It coughed out huge amounts of blood as it looked in grief at Ye Qingyu, as if it was roaring with the might of its soul to help shield him from the Wisp God of Consciousness’s guzheng music. At the same time, it wept blood and shouted, ”Human pet... you... quickly wake up... woof! If you don’t, you’ll never see me again... Sob...”
