Perfection: He is the Heavenly Emperor, I am the Eastern Emperor!

Chapter 75 War Clouds and Vast Seas

Chapter 75 War Clouds and Vast Seas

However, to Shi An's dismay, he searched the entire Void God Realm, from the Beginning Land to the Cave Heaven City, but could not find Shi Hao anywhere.

Ultimately, having no other choice, he had to tell the message to Huo Ling'er, whom he had met by chance in Dongtian City, and ask her to pass it on before leaving the Void God Realm.

"Hopefully, that kid will be careful and avoid some regrets!"

Shi An sighed, then walked out of the room and went out onto the street again.

The streets remained bustling with activity, a vibrant tapestry of hawking cries and laughter.

Shi An strolled through the area, but his mind was already contemplating the rest of his journey.

"What... are you doing here?"

But just then, a slightly surprised and puzzled voice suddenly entered his ears.

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman in a light purple dress standing not far away, looking at him with a hint of displeasure and doubt in her eyes.

Looking at the woman's figure, Shi An finally remembered where the familiar voice he had heard in the teahouse came from. The woman in front of him was Yun Xi, the Celestial Saintess of the Celestial Race, with whom he had previously met in the Hundred Broken Mountains!

But he was only slightly surprised for a moment before smiling and greeting her, "Miss, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here."

However, how could Yunxi possibly have a pleasant expression when facing Shi An, this guy who had forcibly taken her earring and even...? Her face instantly changed, and she glared at him with a gloomy expression, angrily shouting, "You scoundrel, give me back my Lingxi Pendant!"

Looking at Yunxi's gloomy face, Shi An smiled helplessly: "Miss, it's just an earring, is it really necessary to pursue it so relentlessly?"

"you········"

Seeing that Shi An still acted like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, Yun Xi was immediately furious. However, after thinking about the strength he had shown in Bai Duan Mountain, she had to suppress her impulse.

The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt. She was the one who had suffered a great loss; not only was their token of love stolen, but she was also…

And in the end, she couldn't do anything to the other party.

"Miss, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Seeing that Yunxi's eyes seemed to be misty, Shi An's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly prepared to take his leave.

"Um?"

But as soon as he set off, he suddenly felt an overwhelming pressure, making it difficult for him to move.

"You bullied my granddaughter and now you think you can just walk away?"

Accompanied by this majestic and cold voice, an aged figure slowly emerged from behind Yunxi, surrounded by a faint divine light, as if resonating with heaven and earth, revealing an inviolable aura of nobility.

This was none other than Yun Canghai, the current patriarch of the Celestial Race and Yun Xi's grandfather, a powerful figure of unfathomable strength.

Shi An was startled. He hadn't expected Yunxi's grandfather to suddenly appear, but after a moment of silence, he calmly said, "Senior, you misunderstand. There was only a small misunderstanding between me and your granddaughter. I did not bully her."

"Misunderstand?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Canghai sneered: "You call this a misunderstanding that you stole the Spirit Pendant of my Celestial Clan's Holy Maiden? If you don't give me an explanation today, don't even think about leaving this place!"

The situation here drew curious glances from the surrounding crowd, and discussions arose.

"but·······"

But just as Shi An was about to say something, Yun Canghai changed the subject, looked him up and down, and said, "If you are willing to marry into my Heavenly God Mountain, I am not unable to arrange for Yun Xi to marry you."

"Grandfather, you..."

Yun Canghai's decision shocked not only Shi An, but even Yun Xi herself.

But she didn't say anything, because she knew very well why her grandfather had made this decision; it was all because of...

As she thought about it, Yunxi's gaze toward Shi An became increasingly complicated.

As the founder of the Twelve Grottoes, it would be a lie to say that she had no thoughts about it. After all, this was an unprecedented achievement, and it might be one that will never be repeated.

Which woman wouldn't want to marry such a genius with unlimited potential? But thinking about Shi An's previous actions, Yun Xi's feelings became conflicted.

However, to Yunxi's surprise, while she was hesitating about whether to marry him, she didn't realize that he had no such intention at all.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior. I appreciate it very much."

No sooner had Yun Canghai finished speaking than Shi An politely declined, saying, "But marriage is a serious matter, not only concerning personal feelings and aspirations, but also requiring the consent of both parents. How can it be treated so lightly? Besides..."

As he spoke, Shi An glanced at Yun Xi beside him, and then continued, "There are still many misunderstandings between me and Miss Yun Xi that have not been resolved, so I really cannot..."

"That's not up to you. Now that I've run into you today, you're not leaving."

However, before Shi An could finish speaking, Yun Canghai suddenly shouted and sprang into action.

"boom!"

A tremendous divine power erupted from Yun Canghai's body, instantly sealing off the surrounding space. This caused the shops on both sides of the street to sway precariously, as if they would collapse at any moment under this power.

This made Shi An feel an unprecedented pressure, as if the entire world was pressing down on him at this moment.

Meanwhile, pedestrians around them cried out in alarm and scattered in all directions, seeking refuge.

Shi An's expression was solemn. He knew that there was a huge gap between his strength and Yun Canghai's, but since things had come to this, he had no choice but to fight head-on.

"Phew~"

He took a deep breath, his spiritual energy surging within him, preparing for the impending battle.

"Senior, I have no intention of offending you, but marriage cannot be forced. I hope you can understand."

Shi An's voice sounded weak under the oppressive aura, yet it carried a firmness.

Seeing that Shi An remained stubborn even now, Yun Canghai's face instantly darkened further: "Hmph, you brat, you won't listen to reason! Today I'll show you that the things of my Celestial Race aren't so easy to take!"

Before he finished speaking, Yun Canghai flashed and appeared in front of Shi An, delivering a punch with earth-shattering force straight to Shi An's heart.

Upon seeing this, Shi An immediately retreated, while simultaneously forming hand seals.

"rub!"

Instantly, an earthen wall formed in front of him, attempting to block the attack.

"Bang!"

Unfortunately, Yun Canghai's punch was incredibly powerful. Shi An's earthen wall couldn't even withstand it for a moment before collapsing with a deafening roar. At the same time, the powerful shockwave caused the entire Yunyin Ancient City to shake violently.

Looking at Shi An again, although he barely managed to block the attack, he was also shaken so badly that his blood and qi were churning and his face turned pale.

"Kid, come back to Heavenly God Mountain with me!"

Seeing this, Yun Canghai sneered and pressed forward again. The divine light around him became even more dazzling, as if he had reached some kind of resonance with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so that each of his attacks contained the power to destroy the world.
