"Ahem..."
The Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord coughed twice, trying to draw attention, but the man and two women didn’t even glance his way.
This only fueled his anger, and he let out a cold snort. "So, you’re the Demon Lord?"
Gu Qingfeng, interrupted mid-action, cast an icy glare his way and said coldly, "Can’t you see I’m busy?"
"Hmph. A mere cultivator at the Heavenly Human Realm dares to call himself ‘Heavenly Lord’? Who’s backing you? Bring them out."
Boom!
Gu Qingfeng threw a punch, a surge of chaotic energy erupting from his fist.
The Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord flicked his horsetail whisk, effortlessly deflecting the attack—but his expression shifted dramatically. "That’s Primordial Chaos energy! You’re a Chaos Physique!"
Suddenly, he recalled the divination the Celestial Court's Holy Master had shared with him—a vision of the Verdant Wood Domain shrouded in chaos. Could this be the Chaos Physique foretold?
A smirk crept onto his face. "Hahaha! Truly, the heavens deliver what we seek without effort. I thought I’d have to scour the Verdant Wood Domain, yet here you are, the very Chaos Physique from the prophecy!"
Gu Qingfeng was mildly surprised. This man had blocked his casual punch—though he’d used less than a ten-thousandth of his power, it was still beyond what a Heavenly Human Realm cultivator should withstand.
A golden glint flashed in his eyes—the All-Seeing Golden Pupils.
After a quick assessment, a wicked grin curled his lips. "So, you’re a Heavenly Lord. No wonder you survived a punch from me. State your name."
"This humble Daoist is the Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord, an elder of the Celestial Court. By order of the Holy Master, I’ve come to retrieve you."
"The Celestial Court? Never heard of it."
The Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord shook his head. "Truly, the ignorance of those from minor realms. You don’t even know of the Celestial Court?"
At this, Ling Fei'er gasped and quickly whispered to Gu Qingfeng, "Sect Master, the Celestial Court is the strongest imperial sect in existence—a lineage that has produced two Emperors!"
Gu Qingfeng’s interest was piqued. Two Emperors? So, the Celestial Court had birthed two Heavenly Emperors? Interesting.
"The girl has some knowledge," the Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord remarked with a faint smile before turning back to Gu Qingfeng. "The Celestial Court summons you. Come with me."
"Kehahaha—!" Gu Qingfeng burst into wild laughter, his eyes brimming with arrogance as he locked onto the Heavenly Lord. "Such audacity! What gives your Celestial Court the right to summon me?"
The Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord’s patience wore thin. "Youth, you overstep your bounds with such insolence!"
"Hmph. Old fool, you lack even basic courtesy, yet dare spout nonsense?"
"You brat! You seek death!"
"Worthless cur! You think you can challenge me?"
With tempers flaring, the two clashed.
The Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord swung his whisk, its countless white strands radiating divine light as they lashed out, aiming to ensnare Gu Qingfeng.
Faced with a Heavenly Lord’s strike, Gu Qingfeng didn’t even move. He simply threw another punch.
BOOM!
The impact resonated like a colossal bell, shaking the void. The sheer force shattered space, and a torrent of chaotic energy surged forth like a divine beast tearing through the heavens, descending upon the Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord.
The Heavenly Lord remained composed. In his eyes, even if Gu Qingfeng possessed the legendary Chaos Physique, his cultivation was still only at the Heavenly Human Realm. How strong could such a physique truly be?
But what he didn’t know was that Gu Qingfeng’s Chaos Embryo was no ordinary one—it had been forged from two Great Saint Physiques, one Perfect Saint Physique, countless other divine and saintly bodies, and an ocean of resources.
No Heavenly Lord could withstand it.
By the time the Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord realized this, it was too late. The annihilating force of the chaotic fist had already obliterated his whisk’s divine threads.
His face twisted in horror. Abandoning all dignity, he channeled his divine power, hands weaving seals as radiant light erupted from his body.
ROAR!
The deafening cries of beasts echoed as divine energy took the form of countless mythical creatures, charging forth.
But against the Primordial Chaos, they were nothing.
Where Chaos arises, all laws crumble!
The beasts shattered instantly.
An overwhelming pressure bore down on the Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord, crushing him to his knees. For the first time, he felt like an ant before a god.
"NO—!"
CRACK!
Amidst his despairing roar, the chaotic fist reduced him to a broken, bloodied mess.
Thud.
The Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord collapsed, his eyes filled with terror.
"How… is this possible?! You’re only at the Heavenly Human Realm! How could your Chaos Physique be this powerful?! Is this the true might of the legends?!"
"Shh."
Gu Qingfeng rose slowly, wreathed in swirling chaos, his presence like that of an ancient deity as he strode toward the fallen Heavenly Lord.
Stopping before him, he looked down with cold indifference. "Look at me, you wretch."
The Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord’s gaze was drawn helplessly to Gu Qingfeng’s eyes.
Then—a sinister, soul-devouring demonic light flashed within those pupils, plunging deep into the Heavenly Lord’s mind.
Moments later, the light in the Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord’s eyes dimmed, replaced by a dark, subservient gleam.
He pressed his forehead to the ground in reverence. "This lowly one, Righteous Sun, pays homage to the Supreme Lord."
Ever since Gu Qingfeng’s "friendly discussion" with the Heart Demon, his Indestructible Demon Soul had ascended to new heights. Controlling a Heavenly Lord was child’s play.
"Good. Now, explain your purpose here," Gu Qingfeng said, returning to his seat, one arm around each of his companions as he popped grapes and sipped wine.
Subduing a Heavenly Lord wasn’t even worth a second thought to him now.
The Righteous Sun Heavenly Lord detailed the Celestial Court's Holy Master’s orders at length.
After a while, Gu Qingfeng mused, "So, your Holy Master divined that this era of strife is tied to a calamity… and I’m the key to it?"
"Indeed, Supreme Lord."
"Did he say what this calamity is?"
"No."
Gu Qingfeng nodded, lost in thought.
I’ve always kept a low profile and been kind to others. Who did I offend to get dragged into this? Sitting at home, and suddenly I’m tied to an apocalyptic disaster?
Does the Heavenly Dao think I’m some peerless hero, destined to save the world?
Tch. Not long ago, they wouldn’t even acknowledge me as a Heavenly Human. Now they want to use me as their savior? How shameless.
He couldn’t make sense of it.
But a trip to the Celestial Court would clear things up.
He’d already planned to visit the Sacred Domain—might as well make the Celestial Court his first stop.
Two Emperors, huh? They must have deep reserves. Maybe enough to complete my Chaos Physique.
In his mind, the Celestial Court wasn’t even worth a second thought. So what if they had Heavenly Venerables? Or Quasi-Emperors?
With the Heaven-Sent Formation, he could rob them blind and vanish before anyone could react.
Who in this world could stop him?
