Zuo Tianmo stretched out his tone, piquing everyone's curiosity.
Seeing Zuo Tianmo's sudden pause, several people cursed him under their breath, "You motherfucker, finish your sentence in one go!"
"But what?" Kan Hao Si couldn't help but ask.
He felt an unbearable discomfort if he didn't get an answer, especially when someone spoke halfway, piqued everyone's interest, and then slumped back without saying another word.
That feeling was more disgusting than eating shit.
Seeing Kan Hao Si ask and the others staring at him with predatory eyes, Zuo Tianmo's expression changed. With an extremely respectful tone, he emphatically introduced:
"He is indeed not at the Great Perfection of Divine Venerable, but he is a Divine Emperor."
Divine Emperor?
Everyone's expressions shifted.
"Di... Divine Emperor?? Did you just say Divine Emperor?" Kan Hao Si asked with a trembling, fearful voice, like a mother hen.
Everyone's breathing grew heavier. The word Divine Emperor was too distant. Although they had reached the pinnacle of the Divine Realm and the Divine Emperor realm seemed within reach, they knew that the title of Divine Emperor was incredibly far from them.
Moreover, they hadn't seen a Divine Emperor in tens of thousands of years.
This had led everyone to believe that perhaps the Great Perfection of Divine Venerable was the highest cultivation level attainable in the Divine Realm.
As for the Sacred Realm mentioned in ancient texts, it might all be fabricated lies.
In the entire hall, everyone except Zhang San Feng and a few other knowledgeable individuals wore expressions of disbelief.
Seeing their shocked expressions, Zuo Tianmo felt he had the most to say. Still speaking respectfully, he continued, "Why do you think I hit myself? Why do you think I knelt on the ground and kowtowed? Even for a Divine Venerable Great Perfection, I wouldn't do this. You all saw it."
"Because Young Master Xia used the power of rules solely on me. I was terrified. Within Xia Gongzi's rules, I felt like a mere speck of dust. His aura could easily strip my divine personality and take my life at will. You cannot comprehend this terrifying feeling."
Zuo Tianmo's voice grew louder, as he tried to convey his past fear.
Xia Feng was a Divine Emperor, he experienced it personally.
If he wasn't a Divine Emperor, he wouldn't be able to wield the legendary power of rules.
This power far surpassed what the Divine Realm possessed.
The crowd remained silent, as what Zuo Tianmo described was something they had witnessed.
"I can understand your feeling," Gu Hong Guang spoke. Da Feng Novel Network
Besides Zuo Tianmo, Gu Hong Guang was the only one present who had experienced such a sensation.
As Gu Hong Guang spoke, everyone looked at him with questioning eyes.
"Weren't you with Young Master Xia?" Kan Hao Si asked, puzzled.
"It's a shame to say, but the matter is this..."
Gu Hong Guang recounted everything, from his conflict with Zhang San Feng at the restaurant to how he knelt before Xia Feng.
With Gu Hong Guang's account, the others had no choice but to believe. All their previous notions were overturned.
Who said Divine Emperors were mythical realms?
Who said there were no Divine Emperors in the Divine Realm?
One had just appeared here.
They hadn't expected to see a Divine Emperor in their lifetime, nor did they expect it to be so dramatic, and certainly not that Xia Feng would be so young.
At the same time, they suspected that Xia Feng had surely altered his appearance to look younger.
Otherwise, where would a young Divine Emperor come from?
Let alone a Divine Emperor, even a young Divine Sovereign was rare.
No one spoke; the atmosphere was extremely quiet, and everyone was at a loss for words.
After a long silence, Kan Hao Si was the first to speak, looking at Zhang San Feng and asking, "Divine Venerable Zhang, Young Master Xia is so young and already a Divine Emperor? Or has he changed his appearance?"
"No, he is very young, so young that it's hard for you to believe. I can only tell you that this is his original appearance."
Zhang San Feng would not reveal more about Xia Feng's personal affairs.
The crowd fell silent again, their hearts filled with deep admiration for Xia Feng.
Lian Yue Ting seemed to see the scene of Li Mo being slain by Xia Feng. With Xia Feng's intervention, any Li Mo would be as easy to deal with as slaughtering dogs.
This time, she finally felt at peace.
....................
While Zhang San Feng and his group discussed matters in the hall, Xia Feng, accompanied by the Lord of Ten Thousand Nether Realms, strolled through the sect, admiring the architecture of the Divine Realm.
Suddenly, a peculiar building caught Xia Feng's attention, and he quickened his pace.
As soon as they entered this hall, a woman in red was snatching a black wolf pet, and that wolf pet was at the Xuan Divine Realm.
As for herself, she only possessed the strength of an Ancient God, though her appearance was rather fetching.
"Who are you? Who allowed you to barge into the Sutra Repository?" the woman in red asked, feigning fierceness.
Her fierce appearance was actually not fierce at all. With her bright, shining eyes, she looked rather amusing.
Xia Feng smiled and said, "We are disciples from a sect participating in the upcoming大会. We saw this palace looked very peculiar, so we came to take a look."
"Then, which sect are you from?" the woman in red seemed very amiable and quickly relaxed, asking in a probing tone.
The Divine Venerable Conference was being held within the sect, so Xia Feng's words raised no suspicion.
"We are from the Tai Chi Sect," Xia Feng stated, naming the Tai Chi Sect.
The woman in red's face lit up, and she said, "Oh, you're from the Tai Chi Sect? I absolutely adore your Tai Chi City. And Divine Venerable Zhang is a renowned grandmaster, whom I greatly admire."
Xia Feng was surprised that the woman in red had such a favorable impression of the Tai Chi Sect. He then smiled and said, "Divine Venerable Zhang is the sect leader of our Tai Chi Sect."
"This is the sect's Sutra Repository, and outsiders are not allowed to enter privately. However, since you are from the Tai Chi Sect, I will take a risk and quietly show you around. But you must not tell anyone."
The woman in red glanced around with her large eyes and whispered to Xia Feng.
"Alright, you seem quite easy to talk to," Xia Feng agreed with a nod.
"That depends on whom I meet. My reputation within the sect is quite well-known; my senior brothers and sisters are all afraid of me," the woman in red said with a proud expression.
"Are you really that powerful?" Xia Feng deliberately stretched his tone, teasing her.
"Indeed," the woman in red lifted her chin slightly, a smug look on her face.
Then she looked at Xia Feng and asked, "What's your name? My name is Kan Yu Ting."
Kan Yu Ting introduced herself proactively to Xia Feng.
"Xia Feng," Xia Feng replied with his name.
Kan Yu Ting nodded upon hearing this, then pouted and said, "Your name doesn't sound as good as mine."
"Haha... You're the first person to say my name sounds bad," Xia Feng laughed heartily, amused by Kan Yu Ting.
"What? Do you also have a big reputation in the Tai Chi Sect? Are many people afraid of you?" Kan Yu Ting asked, her interest greatly piqued.
Judging by Xia Feng's appearance, he didn't look like someone who would instill fear.
