Chapter 1051 — Three Supremes Appear Together

The Herdsman of the Wasteland Page 2 of 2

If you and I join, both profit; if we part, both suffer. I have come to visit in order to counsel you not to seek your own death. In truth, it was not I who saw that this is a trap aimed at the Ancient Gods; it was the Northern Emperor Xuanwu who saw that this is a trap inviting the lord into the jar, and he asked me to come and tell you. " Only when the Western Emperor heard that it was the Northern Emperor Xuanwu who had sent him to warn her did her doubts dissolve. She probed, "It was truly the Northern Emperor Xuanwu who sent you? " Shen Mu nodded, smiling. "If the Western Emperor does not believe it, then send someone to the Northern Pole Heaven to ask.

" The Western Emperor was half convinced, half doubtful. She opened the chariot window and summoned a female divine general, giving her a set of instructions.

The female divine general bowed in haste and hurried off. Shen Mu said leisurely, "For your gods to go and return will take several days, I fear.

Better this: withdraw your troops first.

When Heavenly Venerable Hong sees there is no hope of killing you, he will know you have seen through his scheme, and there will be no need for him to keep hiding.

I will call him out, and he is certain to appear for a meeting. " The corner of the Western Emperor's eye twitched. She opened the chariot window again and gave an order. Outside came the sound of the gong recalling the troops; the great army of Western Pole gods and demons withdrew one after another, and even in retreat they were without the slightest disorder.

Shen Mu rose, came to the side of the Divine King Langwan, opened another chariot window and looked out, and could not help but marvel.

"How do the officers and soldiers under my command look to the Heavenly Venerable Mu? " the Western Emperor said with a smile.

Shen Mu said sincerely, "Truly strong troops, seldom seen in this world. Only a shade inferior to Jingping, but by no means weak.

" The Western Emperor was displeased.

"Jingping? A mere pellet of land, and it has strong troops?

" "Your Majesty, Jingping inherits the teaching of Kaihuang, and the pupil surpasses the master.

In fighting strength it cannot compare with the Western Pole Heaven, but in battle formations, the Western Pole Heaven cannot hold a candle to it. " Shen Mu stepped out of the treasure chariot and said in a ringing voice, "Heavenly Venerable Hong, since you have come, why not show yourself for a meeting? " He stirred his divine consciousness, and his voice traveled to Heaven Rampart City, turning into rolling thunder.

The Western Emperor looked through the window at the divine artifact Yutianzun. The artifact did not move.

She looked at Shen Mu outside the chariot, and her pupils contracted slightly.

The Divine King Langwan gave a light cough, and the Western Emperor's pupils dilated again. She smiled.

"Fellow cultivator, you give me a very familiar feeling. Have we met before?

" The Divine King Langwan said, "Perhaps we have, and perhaps we have not.

" The Western Emperor's eyes flickered.

"You are very strange. You make me more and more certain that you are. .

.

" Suddenly her pupils shrank sharply, and she turned her head at once.

The eyes of the divine artifact Yutianzun had opened, and a sheet of white light shot forth, a white radiance brighter than a thousand suns, like a bridge of light. This bridge of light rested exactly upon the South Heaven Gate of the White Tiger Heavenly Palace, pressing down upon its top!

The Western Emperor clenched her fists and sneered. Upon that bridge of light, an old man in a white robe, with white brows and white beard, trod the bridge of light and walked toward them. His great sleeves fluttered as though he would ride the wind away, indescribably free and unrestrained; yet his body seemed exceedingly heavy, and when he had walked halfway, the bridge of light pressed the South Heaven Gate of the White Tiger Heavenly Palace down with a creaking groan, and even the whole White Tiger Heavenly Palace was pressed aslant, sinking without cease! By the time the white-robed old man reached the Heavenly Dragon Treasure Chariot, the whole White Tiger Heavenly Palace had been pressed down to the ground, and the South Heaven Gate had been crushed into the earth!

The Western Emperor stared blankly at the old man drawing ever nearer, her body trembling a little. Shen Mu bowed to welcome him, smiling.

"Heavenly Venerable Hong, you were quietly nourishing your spirit, and I have woken you.

I am truly sorry. " Heavenly Venerable Hong hastily returned the salute, laughing.

"Daoist brother, you are the only founding elder of the Heaven Alliance still in this world. At a single call from you, I had no choice but to wake.

" Shen Mu raised a hand, smiling. "Daoist Hong, please enter the chariot and talk.

The Western Emperor is also waiting in the chariot for you.

" Heavenly Venerable Hong bowed.

"After you, Daoist brother. " Shen Mu walked into the chariot, and Heavenly Venerable Hong followed him in. Shen Mu asked him to be seated; Heavenly Venerable Hong hastily bowed and invited him again; Shen Mu returned to the seat of honor, and only then did Heavenly Venerable Hong sit down. He first cupped his hands to the Western Emperor, then cupped his hands to the Divine King Langwan, and said with a chuckle, "Daoist brother, in this little treasure chariot of yours are gathered the titans of the Primordial Age, the Ancient Age, and the present day. A strange thing indeed. The Western Emperor comes from the Primordial Age, this Divine King also comes from the Primordial Age, Daoist brother comes from the present day, and I come from the Ancient Age. " Crack!

The armrest of the Western Emperor's seat was crushed to splinters by her bare grip.

She rose abruptly, staring at the Divine King Langwan opposite her, her voice hoarse: "A Primordial Divine King? " "Sit down!

" Shen Mu was furious; he struck the armrest heavily and shouted.

The Western Emperor looked at the Divine King Langwan, then at Heavenly Venerable Hong. Knowing that she could hardly escape calamity today, she gave an angry humph and sat down heavily.

The Heavenly Dragon Treasure Chariot lurched and shook violently, and outside, the six heavenly dragons gave mournful cries. Shen Mu's heart ached: "One of the seats in this chariot of mine, she has sat it to pieces; one of the shafts is broken, and the wheels are surely flattened too. This woman, her backside is hard as iron! " He rallied his spirits, fixed his gaze on Heavenly Venerable Hong, and smiled.

"The Great Emperor has eyes like torches, to recognize the Divine King? " Hearing this, the tiger fur all over the Western Emperor's body bristled, pricking her armor full of holes.

Even her hair stood on end, strand by strand, straight out in every direction!
