The Immortal Emperor Returns Chapter 666 - Daylight Robbery

Chapter 666 Daylight Robbery

Watching Chu Xun leave, Ye Huiling and the others looked at each other in dismay. If Gu Yang was regarded as a good-for-nothing, what were they?
“Geniuses emerge in every generation, and each of them reigns supreme for millions of years. It’s a shame we cannot compare to those Chosen Ones blessed by God.” Ma Shiwen smiled bitterly.
Ye Huiling felt the same way.
Some people were born to be blessed by God, such as Gu Yang, who was born to be stronger than his peers given his dual pupils.
One of the experts in the Gold Immortal Realm of the Gu Family offered Gu Yang a pill and helped him absorb it, while the rest of the family desperately transmitted Internal Breath to him.
It was a long time before Gu Yang woke up. He seemed at a loss, but then he suddenly sat up, wide awake. Sadly, he clenched his teeth as the back of his head hurt so much. It would surely be painful as it had been smashed to a pulp.
“Liu Tianhe...” Gu Yang had been taking a shortcut since he was born. He was unrivaled compared to his peers in the same realm, and when he grew up, he was loved by many people. When had he ever suffered such a loss?
“What can I do for you?” A mocking voice rang out.
Gu Yang’s eyes instantly turned bloodshot as he looked towards that man.
Ye Huiling and the rest were dumbfounded. “Didn’t he leave? Why did he come back?”
“I’m going to kill you!” Gu Yang roared, thirsting for revenge. However, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, which caused him to black out and be unable to rise to his feet.
Ye Huiling and the rest hurried to stand in front of Gu Yang.
“Mr. Liu, I thought you were picking the herb. Why are you back?” Ma Shiwen asked with a smile.
“I was halfway there when I realized I had left something behind and came back,” Chu Xun said.
“What is it?”
Boom!
A terrifying purple ripple suddenly burst out from Chu Xun’s body. Ye Huiling did not expect him to suddenly attack. It was too late for them to resist. They were all sent flying, but they were not injured.
Chu Xun walked straight to Gu Yang.
“Mr. Liu, you can’t...”
Ye Huiling and his companions shouted in shock, thinking that Chu Xun was going to kill Gu Yang.
“Don’t worry, I won’t kill him. He’s just a good-for-nothing. What does it matter if I kill him or not?” Chu Xun said indifferently.
Gu Yang’s canthi were about to split apart. It had been nearly a thousand years since he was born. He was the only one who had called others trash. When had he ever been looked down upon like this?
“Don’t move, you little good-for-nothing.” Chu Xun raised his hand and suppressed Gu Yang.
Gu Yang circulated his Qi in an attempt to resist, but the back of his head hurt so much that his vision turned black.
With a flash of light, a Stellar Core appeared in Chu Xun’s hand, and he smashed it down.
Bang!
Gu Yang let out a miserable cry. Blood dripped from his head, and a fist-sized bump appeared on his forehead.
“I told you not to move, or I’ll smash you to death,” Chu Xun said threateningly, playing with the Stellar Core.
“Liu Tianhe, Liu Tianhe...” roared Gu Yang furiously.
Bang!
Again, Chu Xun hit him rudely, and as a result, a large lump appeared on the left side of his forehead. The two lumps formed a symmetrical pattern, so it was like he’d got horns.
Gu Yang screamed miserably, his eyes rolling up. He almost fainted.
“Come on, little dragon boy, sing with me. I have horns on my head and a tail...” Chu Xun looked at Gu Yang and laughed out loud.
Puff!
Gu Yang was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood, and then he fainted, his head tilting to the side.
“How dare you call yourself a Chosen One with such a poor mentality? What a loser!” Chu Xun said disdainfully.
Ye Huiling and the others were speechless in the distance. To them, anyone would pass out at such a humiliation. Gu Yang had only been able to survive because of his strong psychological endurance.
After that, they witnessed how Liu Tianhe, the Killing God, committed a daylight robbery, with their mouths agape.
They watched Chu Xun slowly take off Gu Yang’s armor and put it away, muttering that it was a waste to leave it to him.
“So when he said he left something behind, he was talking about Gu Yang’s armor?
“He’s even worse than a bandit.”
“That’s not appropriate, is it, Mr. Liu?” Ye Huiling had a strange look on his face.
“What’s wrong with that? It’s my trophy. I’m kind enough to not rob the old guys around you. I’ve always been too soft-hearted...” said Chu Xun.
The several Gold Immortal Realm experts of the Gu Family nearly spat out blood. They were pointed at and called “old guys”. Worse still, they watched as their genius was robbed, but they couldn’t say anything. Was there anything more aggrieving than that?
Chu Xun waved a hand and said, “See you later, everyone.”
With that, he turned around and left.
Ye Huiling and the rest looked at each other in dismay.
“Let’s head down first,” Ma Shiwen suggested.
The several Gold Immortal Realm experts of the Gu Family nodded hurriedly and rushed down the mountain with Gu Yang. They were all worried that Chu Xun would come back again.
However, Chu Xun had no intention of going back this time because there was nothing left of Gu Yang for him to rob.
He rushed all the way to the top of the mountain.
Along the way, he encountered several powerful venomous beasts and Ghost-faced Trees, but they all ended up serving as the grindstone he used to test the power of the Traceless Sword, killing them all.
He climbed all the way to the top.
He looked happy after he spread out his divine sense as he found the Silver Jade Immortal Leaf.
He was about to get another great medicinal herb.
The Silver Jade Immortal Leaf grew on the mountaintop. It was three feet high and had two leaves; one was silver and the other was green. It emitted two rays of light, slowly rotating like a Tai Chi pattern.
Chu Xun was overjoyed and rushed directly to it.
However, something unexpected happened. A black shadow suddenly appeared beside him, and a sharp claw shining with cold light tore through the air, going for his neck.
Great medicinal herbs were bound to be protected by beasts.
Chu Xun had been prepared for this. His aura swept around him, and purple ripples surged like raging waves.
Bang!
The black shadow was knocked away.
Chu Xun looked over, only to find that it suddenly turned into black smoke and disappeared without a trace.
He spread out his divine sense but failed to detect its presence.
Swoosh!
The black shadow suddenly emerged behind Chu Xun and clawed at his back.
Chu Xun turned around and threw a punch. The power of his fist surged out but missed the target. There was nothing behind him.
The Misty Cloud Beast!
Chu Xun immediately realized what he had encountered.
Misty Cloud Beasts were powerful wild beasts. In the world of cultivation, they were second only to Kylins. They were endowed with a special ability that made them look like a mixture of cloud and smoke, so they could dissipate at any time. It was difficult to lock onto them with one’s divine sense, so they were hard to deal with.
Swoosh!
The Misty Cloud Beast appeared behind Chu Xun again without him noticing. Its sharp claws were like rays of light that could tear apart metal and stone as it clawed at his neck.
The air around him exploded again, and the Misty Cloud Beast was sent flying and abruptly disappeared.
He didn’t expect a Misty Cloud Beast to be on the Immortal Domain Star. Moreover, he concluded that this one was at the intermediate stage of the Gold Immortal Realm judging from their rough exchange of blows.
The Misty Cloud Beast wasn’t very large. It was more than a meter long and shaped like a cheetah. The most frightening thing about it was its pair of sharp claws and speed. If it launched a sneak attack, very few people would be able to avoid it.
Chu Xun lifted the corner of his mouth slightly. The next moment, he turned into a stream of light and flew around the whole mountaintop. In the blink of an eye, he had completed a lap.
Swoosh!
Chu Xun had just steadied himself when the Misty Cloud Beast launched another sneak attack, its sharp claws glinting coldly as it swiped at his neck.
This time, Chu Xun did not dodge. He allowed its sharp claws to hit his neck. With a clang, sparks flew in all directions. The Misty Cloud Beast was sent flying, leaving a few white marks on the back of Chu Xun’s neck.
