Chapter 1132 — The Divine Sovereign of Kun Virtue
The Herdsman of the Wasteland Page 2 of 2
Even having gained the patronage of the North Emperor and the West Emperor and possessing so formidable a divine weapon as the Five Thunders Gourd, it had not raised a Five Thunders Army, but had quietly devoted itself to development. If this went on, even a wealthy realm would be rich but not strong. Now within Jingping's borders there were already many divine beings who had cultivated to the Divine Realm; these could be poured into the Earthly Virtue Heavenly Palace, and those with divine powers were needed to join the army and go to the battlefield to temper themselves against the future.
Just then, Venerable Haotian, Venerable Huotian, and the other of the Ten Heavenly Venerables came out of the Lingxiao Hall.
"Venerable Mutian! " Venerable Hongtian stepped forward quickly and greeted Shen Mu, saying with a chuckle, "Venerable Mutian, you have been waiting outside the Lingxiao Hall all this while — why not go in and talk?
His Majesty has been missing Venerable Mutian all along!
" Shen Mu returned the greeting and laughed.
"I arrived a step late, and court was already in session; I did not dare disturb His Majesty and my colleagues. " He sized up Venerable Hongtian, muttering inwardly.
Venerable Hongtian was indeed somewhat similar to the Dahong he had seen in Longhan — both wore loose robes with wide sleeves — but Dahong was a young man, while Venerable Hongtian was an old man with white brows and white beard, his face glowing with vigor.
Both were of the demon race; yet according to the God King Gongyun, Dahong was dead.
So was this Venerable Hongtian the Great Emperor or not? Could it be that the Great Emperor's consciousness had descended from the Great Luo Heaven of consciousness in the Ultimate Void and entered Dahong's corpse?
His face full of smiles, he exchanged a few pleasantries with Venerable Hongtian. The two had just been locked in bitter opposition between Gongsun Yan's brows, yet now they chatted and laughed as though nothing had ever happened.
