The Wuji Chicken, being an Immortal Emperor, naturally sensed a power that did not belong to this world.
He could now clearly feel that the spear before him carried divine power, a suffocating force.
Even though it was only a tiny bit, his heart felt a fear of this power.
"Yes," Susanoo nodded.
"Why do you possess a divine artifact? And divine power attached to a spear?" Emperor Wuji Chicken was not very understanding.
"Because the gods personally bestowed it upon me." Susanoo hid nothing; if he wanted Emperor Wuji Chicken to obey, he had to tell him everything.
As expected, Emperor Wuji Chicken's expression changed upon hearing this.
Could the Immortal Realm still communicate with gods?
"This... is too hard to believe," Emperor Wuji Chicken didn't know what to say, but his eyes held a deep curiosity.
"In one sentence, pledge your loyalty to me, and I will take you to ascend to the God Realm. Your task is merely to help me hold back the other Immortal Emperors of the Human Race. You don't need to concern yourself with anything else."
Susanoo was too lazy to waste more words with Emperor Wuji Chicken and laid his cards on the table.
His implication was clear: if Emperor Wuji Chicken was willing to be loyal, so be it; if not, he could go to hell.
"This... allow me to consider it." Emperor Wuji Chicken wanted to stall for a couple of days and consult the other Immortal Emperors.
"Let's go." Susanoo didn't look back, and the three of them flew away. They appeared completely unfazed.
Emperor Wuji Chicken was stunned.
I was just putting on a show, trying to delay them for two days, and you just left like that?
Watching Susanoo disappear into the distance, Emperor Wuji Chicken became frantic. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Even if Susanoo was lying to him, he would lose nothing. Helping to hold back human Immortal Emperors was not a problem.
Emperor Wuji Chicken, in a hurry, quickly pursued Susanoo.
Because Susanoo hadn't taken it seriously at all, the three of them flew very fast, forcing Emperor Wuji Chicken to chase them for a day and a night.
This made Emperor Wuji Chicken finally believe. The more Susanoo treated him with disregard, the more he trusted him.
It was like haggling on Earth's pedestrian street. The shopkeeper says: "These pants are 180 yuan." You counteroffer: "30 yuan."
The shopkeeper tells you to scram, and you pretend to leave, but in your heart, you're yelling: "Shopkeeper, please call me back!"
"Wait... wait." Emperor Wuji Chicken chased after them, shouting constantly.
Susanoo finally stopped and waited for Emperor Wuji Chicken to approach. He asked, "Is there anything else? Haven't I made myself clear enough? I am bestowing an opportunity upon you, not begging for your allegiance. Your ability to serve me is itself your opportunity. If you go to the God Realm with me, I can back you up. Otherwise, you'll just be a nobody there."
Susanoo was merciless, his words were harsh.
Emperor Wuji Chicken, however, felt no displeasure. Instead, he found Susanoo to be sincere and reliable.
"Yes, yes, you are right," Emperor Wuji Chicken nodded repeatedly, then knelt on one knee before Susanoo and said earnestly, "Wuji Chicken pays his respects to young master. I beg the young master to take me in."
"Rise," Susanoo said indifferently.
"Thank you, young master," Emperor Wuji Chicken said with a bow before standing up.
Susanoo looked at Emperor Wuji Chicken and said seriously, "I bestow upon you the name Ye Ji. From now on, you shall be called Emperor Ye Ji."
"Thank you, young master, for the name. Ye Ji thanks the young master," Emperor Ye Ji said happily.
Susanoo glanced at Emperor Ye Ji and thought to himself, this kid is savvy.
"Let's go, to Emperor Gong Niu's place." Susanoo waved his hand and disappeared into the sky.
After a month, Susanoo had brought all four Immortal Emperors of the Myriad Monster Continent under his command.
Besides Emperor Ye Ji, there were Emperor Gong Niu, Emperor Cai Lang, and Emperor Tian Hu.
Susanoo also bestowed names upon these three, changing them to Emperor Ye Niu, Emperor Ye Lang, and Emperor Ye Hu, respectively.
It was unknown why Susanoo was so fond of the character "Ye" (wild). Legend had it that he and his sister, Amaterasu Omikami, were illegitimate children. Perhaps this early influence led to his preference for the character "Ye."
With Susanoo himself included, there were a total of seven great Immortal Emperors, forming the strongest lineup in the Immortal Realm at present.
Even if they went to the Heavenly Profound Continent to find Xia Feng, the Immortal Emperors who could help Xia Feng would at most be the three who came from the God Realm Mountain.
Even if Emperor Qing Xu rushed over, there would only be four. Adding Xia Feng and Bing Ling'er, they would still be one Immortal Emperor short.
Of course, this was in terms of lineup. No matter how one calculated, Xia Feng's side was short one Immortal Emperor.
As for strength, there was no doubt.
After some inquiries, Susanoo learned that Xia Feng's stronghold was in Void City.
Upon receiving this news, Susanoo headed straight for Void City. This time, Xia Feng would not escape. Knowing his stronghold made things much easier.
After a journey of half a month, Susanoo finally appeared in Void City.
As soon as he approached Void City, the barrier set up by Xia Feng automatically activated. With the emergency response, seven Immortal Emperors suddenly appeared – what a massive force.
"Damn it, this is Xia Feng's stronghold. This barrier's aura is his," Susanoo cursed.
Although Xia Feng's barrier was powerful, with seven Immortal Emperors, they could break through it in a few days at most.
But Susanoo was not in a hurry. He directly soared into the sky, crossed his legs, and sat down leisurely, then shouted towards Void City:
"Fellow villager, come out and meet me."
Susanoo's voice was not loud, but it could penetrate the entire Void City and reach everyone's ears.
The people of Void City all came to the city walls, and they were completely stunned.
Seven Immortal Emperors?
What kind of lineup was this?
Even if Xia Feng were present, it would be useless.
They had never seen such a powerful lineup, and everyone's face was frozen with expressions of terror.
"Xia Feng, don't be a coward. I've traveled so far to find you, can't you even come out for a meeting?" Susanoo frowned, feeling a bit puzzled. Logically, Xia Feng shouldn't be such a coward.
Meanwhile, Xia Feng was still on Earth. After finishing breakfast in the villa, everyone was ready and about to depart for the Immortal Realm.
"Brother, we're all ready. When do we leave?" Xia Lin walked over and asked Xia Feng.
"Let's go now," Xia Feng replied.
Upon hearing that they were leaving immediately, Dongfang Lingyu and Lin Yuwei's faces lit up with excitement. The moment had finally arrived.
It was like the first time, lying in bed waiting for the one you love, letting him slowly undress you, half-hidden, waiting for his torrential... charge.
The feeling was both thrilling and fearful.
The two of them were in this state now, their hearts brimming with excitement.
After saying this, Xia Feng waved his hand, collecting everyone into the Eastern Emperor Bell, preparing to travel to the Immortal Realm.
