Chapter 1640: Captured by the Dragon Emperor
Wu Yu emerged quietly from the Floating Dreams Pagoda after the 9 Great Dragon Emperors and the entire Revered Dragon Council had left the vicinity of the Dragon Origin Tomb.
He did not act immediately but waited until the dragon emperors and dragon council had gone further away before approaching the Dragon Origin Tomb. He realised that the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor had set in place a multi-layered great void immortal design to prevent Luo Pin from leaving the tomb. Luckily, this immortal design was child's play to Wu Yu.
Besides, this immortal design was to stop people from leaving, not entering. Wu Yu could easily invade the immortal design.
When he neared the Dragon Origin Tomb, he could see the colorful vortex. He was respectful of the Mystical dragon tribe's birth place, but this was not the moment to be in awe of the place.
He quickly flew towards that colorful tomb and on the way, he barged through a few layers of a great void immortal design. While the great void immortal design did not stop his journey forth, he could feel something rippling out as he touched them.
"There are communication immortal designs within! As long as someone passes through them, they would send the signal out!"
Wu Yu was shocked. However, it was also logical for the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor to create such a setup. Even though this was the Saintly Dragon's Domain, a sacred place, there might be intruders too.
Hence, he set up some communication immortal designs as a precaution. Through them, he would be notified of any intruders.
This also meant that the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor was already aware that someone was intruding the Dragon Origin Tomb right now!
"I have to move fast!"
Wu Yu was immediately on high alert and moved swiftly through the Dragon Origin Tomb. In this simple yet sealed up space, there seemed to be some enchantment which attracted him, leading him towards one of the small rooms.
Soon, he finally saw Luo Pin who was training in seclusion!
Even after so many years, Luo Pin's unrivalled beauty still shone, causing Wu Yu to lose focus for a moment. He had dreamt of her countless times and finally, he could see her again.
"Wu Yu?"
When Wu Yu stepped into the room, Luo Pin naturally sensed a familiar aura which awakened her from her training.
In reality, even after so much time had passed, she had a difficult time calming down and training. She occasionally achieved a peaceful state but that would not last long. After all, she was actually being imprisoned and she had absolutely no news of Wu Yu. She could not be in peace as long as she worried about Wu Yu.
Now that she have seen Wu Yu again and realised that Wu Yu was not only well but emanated an extremely strong aura, she was pleasantly surprised.
Wu Yu stepped forward as the great beauty stood up and embraced her: "I've finally come to you. Do you know how much I've missed you?"
"I missed you too. How did you get in here?"
Luo Pin's eyes glistened with pleasure and surprise. This was the most blessed moment for her.
Originally, she had thought that she was hallucinating. However, when Wu Yu's arms wrapped around her, she knew that all these were real!
If only this hug could last forever.
"It's a long story, but we have to leave right now. Otherwise, the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor will be here soon." Wu Yu knew that this was not the time to catch up. Hence, he wanted to bring Luo Pin out of this place first.
"Come, come on in!"
Wu Yu took out the Floating Dreams Pagoda and asked Luo Pin to enter it.
Luo Pin went into the Floating Dreams Pagoda without hesitation. Next, Wu Yu carried the Floating Dreams Pagoda and flew towards the exit of the Dragon Origin Tomb. He wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. He had not even thought of his destination. Anywhere other than this place was good enough.
Even the Demon Immortal Realm seemed much better than here.
In the Demon Immortal Realm, even eternal immortal emperors would not be able to find them. At that time, Wu Yu and Luo Pin could live life freely.
Wu Yu was not simply seeking a short reunion. Hence, without wasting a second, he rushed outwards.
Sadly, the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor was quick to react.
At the moment Wu Yu flew out of the Dragon Origin Tomb, he saw that the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor was already in front of the Dragon Origin Tomb. The other 8 Great Dragon Emperors and the Revered Dragon Council were on their way. They could be seen from afar, a majestic troop of mystical dragons!
"Too late."
Wu Yu did not panic but quickly calmed down. He faced the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor while holding the Floating Dreams Pagoda!
His current ability was much stronger than when he was escaping from the sky palaces. He could easily evade and escape from eternal immortal emperors.
While Wu Yu still could not defeat an eternal immortal emperor, it was enough that the other party could never catch him.
"It's you!"
The Sky Heart Dragon Emperor had sensed that there was an intruder in the Dragon Origin Tomb and was surprised at the invader's audacity to do so at this moment and risk the wrath of the entire Mystical dragon tribe.
When he reached the Dragon Origin Tomb, he saw Wu Yu emerging from within and instantly understood everything. He was enraged: "Brat, how dare you return? You not only return but dare to barge into the most sacred place of the Mystical dragon tribe. You are seeking death!"
As his sentence ended, the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor did not wait and immediately tried to grab Wu Yu.
He attacked in his true form and 9 huge dragon claws instantly formed from the clouds. These 9 huge dragon claws descended from multiple locations and swept towards Wu Yu. In just this instant, the claws actually sealed up the voids around Wu Yu!
If this was another person who had not reached the eternal immortal emperor cultivation realm, then he would have no hope of escape. The Sky Heart Dragon Emperor only had to casually wave a claw and that person would be caught.
However, it was a pity that the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor was facing Wu Yu instead. And Wu Yu was nearing the eternal immortal emperor cultivation realm!
When he was at the Eternal Emperor Tomb in the Demon Immortal Realm, he had grown powerful enough to not only fight off but defeat two 9-heavens demon kings at any one time.
And right now, with time passed, his ability had strengthened further.
When the 9 huge dragon claws landed from the clouds and stretched towards Wu Yu, he quickly somersaulted. The Somersault Cloud mystique exploded and instantly, Wu Yu had already left the sealed void domain.
He appeared in another corner of the sky. This sudden turn of events stunned the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor. Obviously, it had not occurred to him that Wu Yu would be able to escape from his clutches.
If someone had told him that Wu Yu was now strong enough to escape from him, he would definitely scoff at the idea. Wasn't Wu Yu just a brat at the immortal king cultivation realm? Would he even dare to fight him, a true eternal immortal emperor?
However, he was now stunned. Wu Yu's single somersault was enough for him to jump out of his sealed void domain. His 9 huge dragon claws ended up grasping at nothing!
Was he still the brat at the pathetic immortal king cultivation realm?
Wu Yu steadied himself. In the meantime, the other 8 Great Dragon Emperors and the Revered Dragon Council surrounded him. Wu Yu was not nervous even when surrounded by so many eternal immortal emperors.
One Sky Heart Dragon Emperor failed to capture him. 9 Great Dragon Emperors would not be able to do so too. Hence, he was not worried at all.
However, it was slightly more troublesome to leave the Saintly Dragon's Domain. Besides, Wu Jun was still here and this made Wu Yu a little more cautious. It was easy for him to escape with Luo Pin. But what if they punished Wu Jun?
Wu Yu could not let Wu Jun be punished because of him.
Hence, he did not immediately escape but decided to assess the situation first.
"Wu Yu, I did not expect for you to be so audacious and sneak into our Mystical dragon tribe's sacred place, the Saintly Dragon's Domain, to kidnap our tribe member." The Sky Heart Dragon Emperor snorted derisively. He had checked and realised that Luo Pin, who was supposed to be in the Dragon Origin Tomb, had disappeared. She must have been brought out by Wu Yu.
He did not expect for this rascal to be so impudent. This was out of his expectations and caught him off guard.
The other dragon emperors kept silent. They intended for the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor to handle this. They only heard the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor threatening Wu Yu: "You better surrender and leave Luo Pin behind. Otherwise, news of your appearance here will immediately spread to the sky palaces. I believe that Mighty Miracle God and the others will know soon that you've appeared in our Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm! At that time, even if you have wings, you cannot escape. Don't be foolish and condemn yourself!"
"Oh? If you spread the news of my appearance here, then I shall leave with Luo Pin and never return!"
Wu Yu wore the same smirk and threatened the other party instead.
"You dare!"
The Sky Heart Dragon Emperor was furious. He had always been the one threatening others. There was never a youngster who dared to speak to him in such an insolent manner.
He wanted to attack again. The terrifying aura of an eternal immortal emperor surged and pressed onto Wu Yu. The aura even suppressed the void.
The power of an immortal emperor could not be blocked. If Wu Yu were to face it head on, then he would only turn into dust.
Hence, with another somersault, he once again escaped from the pressure of the void. At the same time, he sniggered: "You cannot trap me. If I want to leave, I can go at any time. What can you do?"
What could he do?
These few words instantly infuriated the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor. He could have used his immortal emperor power and crush Wu Yu. Unfortunately, he did not expect Wu Yu to be such a slippery fellow. In fact, he was now much stronger than when the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor had last seen him. Even sealing the void could no longer trap him.
"Hold on!"
Another dragon emperor finally spoke. Obviously, they were cautious when Wu Yu said that he would leave with Luo Pin and never return.
No matter what, Luo Pin's talent was important to the Mystical dragon tribe. They would not bear to let her leave.
From what happened just now, they could not stop Wu Yu if he truly wanted to leave. The Sky Heart Dragon Emperor had attacked twice and Wu Yu had escaped easily. Obviously, since Wu Yu dared to step into this tomb, he must have a way to leave. He had never intended to be trapped here.
If that was the case, they would need to negotiate.
"I believe that you are brought into the Saintly Dragon's Domain by Wu Jun?"
One of the Dragon emperor looked at Wu Jun before asking in a stern tone.
"That's right."
Wu Jun could only be honest now. Anyway, there was no way he could escape from punishment. From the moment that he had decided to bring Wu Yu in, he was already prepared to be punished. However, he still had to argue for his case and spoke firmly: "Wu Yu is an unparalleled talent and will become an eternal immortal emperor soon! We do not have any unresolved hatred with him. Why should we take him as an enemy?"
