Becoming Great Emperor by Playing Game-Chapter 436: Finally Reunited, Only to Part Again!

Chapter 436: Chapter 436: Finally Reunited, Only to Part Again!

Following the Corpse Yin Sect’s team, Chen Lan discovered that after they entered the interior of a high-rise building in Netherworld City, they proceeded downward. He didn’t dare to use his divine sense to scan, as this would immediately alert the Youming Emperor.

He needed to find a ghost to soul search.

In no time, Chen Lan found his target, appearing stealthily behind the other, aligning his two fingers and pressing them on the opponent’s head, quickly invading the opponent’s soul and absorbing memories.

In just an instant, he released his grip. The ghost only felt a tremor, looked around in fear, saw nothing, and gradually relaxed.

This wasn’t the place for killing, so Chen Lan didn’t kill the other. It was merely a brief memory absorption, but he found the information he needed: Luo Tao and the others were indeed brought here, imprisoned on the third underground level’s dungeon, with only two Supreme Emperors guarding them and no other personnel.

The third underground level, each level was filled with celebratory gifts for today’s event. In about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, the celebration would begin, and the Youming Emperor would make his appearance before everyone. Gifts would be presented to him, accompanied by performances like music, dance, and arena contests.

Chen Lan had to take Luo Tao and the others away before the gifts started being presented.

...

Netherworld City, third underground level.

In a dungeon, hundreds of people were imprisoned, all of them Blue Star people.

"What should we do? Today’s the day of the celebration. Are we really going to be eaten as food?"

"No way, I don’t want to be eaten as food, let me out!"

"Everyone, calm down. The Free and Unfettered Heavenly Lord has already arrived in the Desolate Celestial Realm, he’ll definitely come to rescue us!"

"Stop dreaming, it’s been so long already. After today, we’re all dead. The Sect Leader won’t come."

The crowd had already lost hope, believing they would be devoured by the Youming Emperor today, and Chen Lan couldn’t possibly save them.

However, Luo Tao and others remained silent, quietly watching the outside, seemingly expecting something, yet also fearing what they might see.

Just then, two black-robed figures approached stealthily. The two ghost cultivators guarding Luo Tao and the others shouted angrily, "Who goes there? Leave at once!"

"Two Supreme Emperors dare to be arrogant, seeking death!" One of the black-robed figures suddenly struck, exterminating the two ghost cultivators instantly, shocking the Blue Star people into silence.

What was going on, why were ghosts being killed?!

The crowd dared not make a sound, retreating to the corners of the dungeon in terror, looking at the two black-robed figures.

The black-robed figures removed their robe hats, revealing two elderly men. If the Youming Emperor saw them, he would recognize them as the two Dao Emperors who came yesterday to ask for Blue Star people, but now their cultivation level was at the Daoist Venerable level!

"Ancient Emperor, we must act swiftly, this avatar can’t be maintained for long. That old fool wouldn’t give them to us, so we’ll take them ourselves." The Demon Emperor sneered.

This was just one of their avatars, able to last only a short duration, but enough time to take several Blue Star people.

Seeing so many Blue Star people, taking seven or eight wouldn’t be noticed by the Youming Emperor.

"Exactly, that old fool, with so many Blue Star people, refusing to give us any, truly deserves to die. Someday we’ll kill him and take back the gifts sent out." Another elder known as the "Ancient Emperor" spoke coldly.

"I’ve spotted some promising ones, able to reach this realm from that barren land, very impressive." The Demon Emperor laughed, eyeing Peng Da Hai, Tao Tian Demon Venerable, and others, who had the highest cultivation realm here and should endure the bloodline tracking.

"No time to waste, let’s pick a few to take away." The Ancient Emperor stated solemnly.

Boom!

The dungeon door was opened, the two casually grabbed, sending Peng Da Hai and others flying out.

"Let me go!" Peng Da Hai cried out in terror, seeing the opponents’ power far above his, offering no resistance.

"Just a mere Celestial Emperor dares to resist us, overestimating oneself." The Ancient Emperor sneered, slightly releasing pressure, instantly suppressing the opponent into unconsciousness.

As one by one was taken away, the others could only watch helplessly!

"Isn’t this a bit much, taking my people away like this?"

Suddenly, a voice rang out behind them, hearing its tone, they thought the Youming Emperor had arrived, making them shudder and turn back stiffly.

But when they saw it wasn’t the Youming Emperor, they sighed in relief, the Demon Emperor, embarrassed and furious, demanded, "Who are you!"

"You’re not qualified to know." Chen Lan summoned the Flame Thunder Spear, swiftly charging.

Thankfully he arrived in time, otherwise Luo Tao and the others would have been taken by these two, though he wasn’t sure why they were being taken, it surely wasn’t anything good.

"Ignorant child, prepare to die!" The Ancient Emperor coldly declared, daring anyone to attack them was seeking death.

With a flash of thunder, the Ancient Emperor’s body froze instantly, gradually disappearing!

They were only at the Daoist Venerable level, how could they withstand a full strike from Chen Lan the Taoist Saint? Chen Lan held nothing back, aiming for a swift fight, thus using his full strength.

Seeing the Ancient Emperor’s avatar destroyed, the Demon Emperor was enraged, glaring viciously at Chen Lan, "Boy, who are you? When I find you, I’ll tear you apart!"

As soon as he spoke, Chen Lan struck again, eliminating him, not giving the opponent a chance to act.

The crowd was stunned, watching Chen Lan quickly eliminate the two, at a loss for what to do.

Who was this ghost, and why help them?

Chen Lan looked at Luo Tao and others, his body’s and face’s disguise gradually disappearing, revealing his true appearance, with a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, "I’m late, Taozi."

Seeing Chen Lan, Luo Tao was taken aback, Yan Yu and Gu Ying were also stunned, the rest were equally surprised until Luo Tao spoke, and they finally reacted!

"Brother Lan, you’re here, wait, Sect Leader, you’ve come!"

Sect Leader?!!!

This exceedingly handsome young man was their admired Free and Unfettered Heavenly Lord, the Sect Leader of their Free and Unfettered Sect?!

They imagined many appearances for the Free and Unfettered Heavenly Lord: middle-aged, elderly, never expecting someone so youthful and attractive!

Moreover, it seemed Luo Tao knew the Sect Leader long ago.

"Master." Tao Tian Demon Venerable saw Chen Lan and immediately knelt down but was stopped by Chen Lan before he could, leaving him puzzled, looking up to see Chen Lan shaking his head, smiling, "There’s no need for that, we must leave quickly, this place is not safe to linger."

They had to flee quickly; if discovered by the Youming Emperor, they’d be doomed.

Just as Chen Lan was preparing to leave with everyone, a voice echoed through the dungeon, shaking everyone to their core in shock!

"Young friend, you just arrived, and already leaving? Why not meet?"

As the voice faded, Chen Lan’s figure disappeared in an instant, as if taken by something, nobody even had the chance to react.
