Chapter 1194 - The Blood Emperor’s Temptation

Chen Fan’s words and the smile on his face made the Blood Emperor’s head fly into a rage.

“Ant, what did you say?! Do you even realize what you are saying? You’re insulting a grand Immortal Emperor! That is a sin! Do you know the severity of your crime?” roared the Blood Emperor’s head furiously.

An Immortal Emperor like him, mocked by a brat beneath an ant, told to bite like a dog—this was the greatest humiliation he had ever endured.

Chen Fan felt like his eardrums were about to rupture.

Despite sealing his ears with his true primeval, the emperor’s furious roar still found its way in, making his mind buzz and his qi and blood churn violently.

The emperor was so angry that he wanted to make a move, but the nine Dawn Suppression Iron Chains erupted with unlimited golden light, suppressing him firmly.

Rattle!

The Dawn Suppression Iron Chains shook nonstop from the emperor’s movements, clashing against one another with crisp metallic rings.

“Blood Emperor, I advise you to save your energy. You can’t kill me in your current state,” said Chen Fan indifferently as he secretly channeled the Heaven and Earth Furnace to suppress his stirring qi and blood.

Though the Blood Emperor was powerful enough to kill him with a glance, he couldn’t do it now.

Disregarding the fact that the Blood Emperor’s head was locked and sealed here by the Dawn Suppression Iron Chains, Chen Fan had the small golden person protecting him. Basically, he was untouchable.

“

Ahhh

!” The Blood Emperor let out a fierce roar, blasting at the chains with terrifying force, desperately trying to break free.

This ant in front of him was too abominable.

He was an Immortal Emperor. How could he suffer such humiliation and act as if nothing had happened?

From his perspective, ever since ascending to the Emperor realm, ants like Chen Fan weren’t even worth noticing. The brat wasn’t even fit to be his slave, being too weak and insignificant.

And yet, this very weakling had just humiliated him.

“You ant, I will kill you! I’ll kill you!”

The Blood Emperor’s head thrashed, shaking the Dawn Suppression Iron Chains wildly, but he just couldn’t break free. Instead, the chains’ retaliatory power lashed back, forcing a pained cry from him.

Chen Fan rolled his eyes and stood at the side, waiting for the emperor to shut up.

Sure enough, the Blood Emperor’s furious roars subsided after about fifteen minutes.

He clearly realized the truth: there was no breaking free from the Dawn Suppression Iron Chains right now, and continuing to scream only embarrassed him further.

Chen Fan let out a light chuckle, his shoulders shaking. “Senior Blood Emperor is not yelling anymore?”

The corner of the Blood Emperor’s eyes twitched, and he shot Chen Fan a gaze filled with icy killing intent.

This damned ant still dared to taunt him.

Damn it, I’ve never been humiliated like this, not even while roaming the thirty-three heavenly domains. Damn it, damn it!

The Blood Emperor roared furiously in his heart.

He was an Immortal Emperor, an existence that carried the sun and the moon on his shoulders, and someone who could shatter a star with a flicker of his fingers. Being humiliated by someone less than an ant in his eyes felt even worse than slicing his flesh off.

Still, he had to face reality.

He was no longer the figure he once was at his peak.

Now, dismembered, sealed in different locations, and bound by the Dawn Suppression Iron Chains, he retained not even one ten-thousandth of his former strength.

Damned Nebulous Immortal Palace, just wait till I break free and return to my peak. I’ll kill my way up to the thirty-three heavenly domains and exact my revenge.

Overwhelming killing intent surged in the emperor’s heart.

But first, I must find a way to refine these chains.

Hmm? That brat... he holds many secrets. He even carries a Mark of the Gods. If not for that mark last time, I would have refined him into a blood corpse already.

As I am now, I can only bring forth strength at the Legendary level. Even refining these chains has slowed to a crawl. Damn it, damn it, damn it! It’s all because of this ant!

Still, if I can use him to destroy the chains... I might escape much faster.

Many thoughts went through the emperor’s mind. His eyeballs darted around, and he looked at Chen Fan and said, “Hoho... how laughable. An Immortal Emperor like me, actually angry at an ant. How absurd!”

The Blood Emperor suddenly changed the topic and continued, “Brat, although you angered me earlier, I am magnanimous. I’ll forgive you. Since you’ve entered here twice, consider it as fate with me. I can even gift you some luck and help you become a peerless expert.”

Chen Fan’s eyebrows shook slightly, looking at the Blood Emperor, whose face changed even faster than the weather, and was secretly on guard.

The Blood Emperor asked coldly, “Brat, let me ask you. Do you wish to rule over this continent?”

Chen Fan shook his head candidly and said, “I don’t.”

The Blood Emperor’s expression stiffened. He hadn’t expected such a blunt answer, completely off-script from the usual response.

By his experience, shouldn’t the brat be excitedly shouting yes?

“You don’t want to? Why? You’re lying, aren’t you?” The Blood Emperor raised his tone, clearly agitated. “Ah, I see. You’re holding back to appear different, trying to impress me by pretending not to care. Clever, brat. You’re shrewd... but all this is petty scheming.”

Chen Fan rolled his eyes, not knowing where the Blood Emperor found his confidence to spout such nonsense.

What would he want to rule over the Tianwu Continent? To him, ruling it would be a self-imposed cage. He wasn’t aiming that low.

“Hoho, you even saw through this. Senior Blood Emperor’s wisdom is indeed unparalleled,” said Chen Fan with a smile.

“

Hmph

, your little tricks may be able to fool others, but you’re far from deceiving me,” said the Blood Emperor proudly.

Chen Fan cursed inside endlessly. He really didn’t know where the Blood Emperor got his confidence from.

However, he didn’t mind playing along to see what trick he was trying to pull.

“Alright, brat, you have the ambition to rule over the continent. Unfortunately, you’re too weak. Still, I can help you. I can help you advance into the Legendary realm immediately, take you in as a disciple, and guide you to roam unfettered in the world.

“You should know that I don’t take in disciples easily. Your talent might be decent in the Lower Realm, but it’s nothing special in the Heavenly Realm. Without my help, you’ll never achieve greatness. At best, you might reach the Void Immortal stage before your life ends.

“But with my guidance, you can ascend to the Immortal Platform realm and become one of those immortals you spoke of. You don’t have to doubt my words either. Long ago, a moderately talented fellow stumbled in here by chance. Under my guidance, he quickly broke through to the Immortal Platform realm,” said the Blood Emperor confidently, his words filled with temptation.

If someone else were in Chen Fan’s place, after learning of the Blood Emperor’s identity and hearing his words, they would’ve believed every word.

Chen Fan also didn’t doubt that the Blood Emperor could help him reach the Immortal Platform realm.

After all, the person he mentioned was likely Gu Tianxing’s personal disciple, the one who betrayed him.

Chen Fan smiled coldly inside.

He could see right through it. The Blood Emperor’s sudden shift in attitude and generous offer was a ploy—a lure meant to lead him astray.

Perhaps the heart of Gu TIanxing’s personal disciple was shaken by these words from the Blood Emperor and ended up as his pawn, bringing disaster to the entire Tianwu Continent.
