Divine King of Honour

The people around heard this voice and felt as if a hundred thousand thunderbolts had suddenly exploded.

One by one, they all glared at Xu Nian.

If looks could kill, Xu Nian would probably have died hundreds, if not thousands, of times in that instant.

Damn it, just when that grim reaper has calmed down, you choose now to speak up? Are you asking for death?

If you want to die, don't drag us down with you!

The crowd cursed inwardly.

Especially Zhang Peng and Li Tao, who now harbored intentions of killing Xu Nian.

Shadow, standing to the side, was also stunned.

She hadn't expected 'Lin Yu' to speak up at this moment.

In her eyes, 'Lin Yu', though arrogant, wasn't so foolish.

Why would he suddenly speak up at this time and draw the attention of that crazy old man?

"Roar!"

As expected, as soon as Xu Nian's figure made a sound, the elder turned his head to look at Xu Nian, letting out a roar.

The roar shook all directions.

The people around each exhibited a look of terror, looking at Xu Nian with eyes like those of an idiot.

"This guy is simply an idiot, our master's cultivation is at the Five-star Battle Emperor Level, and he's provoking him now; he's completely seeking death," Mo Tian couldn't help but speak out.

"Exactly, he's asking for it. It also affects us. Had we known, we should have killed him as soon as we boarded the ship," another youth at the Peak of Nine-star Battle Saint level said.

The young, beautiful woman, although silent, furrowed her brows tightly and her eyes were cold as frost.

"You go to your uncle first," Xu Nian said to Shadow beside him.

"And what about you?" Shadow was taken aback.

She didn't understand what Xu Nian meant by this.

Could it be that he wanted to face this Five-star Battle Emperor Expert alone?

"I'll be fine; he won't hurt me, I know him," Xu Nian said reassuringly.

Shadow was relieved to hear this.

Yet, she felt something was off; the old man had gone mad, what's the use of knowing him?

However, before she could ask again, a fluctuation came, tossing Shadow out entirely.

Shadow was thrown directly in front of Captain An Long.

Seeing this scene, Shadow's worry deepened.

However, Xu Nian didn't look back at Shadow, but took steps towards the old man.

"This guy has really gone mad."

"Isn't that the truth? A young man confronts a crazed Battle Emperor; isn't that insanity?"

"The key point is if he angers our master, we'll all suffer as well."

...

The disciples of Penglai discussed animatedly, cursing Xu Nian in their hearts.

All these comments were heard by Xu Nian without missing a single word.

However, Xu Nian didn't care. He looked toward the old man.

Since the old man could strike against Penglai's disciples without invoking Heavenly Punishment, it was clear he had an artifact that shielded against fate.

It was unknown whether the old man, having lost consciousness, still knew how to use the artifact.

Five-star Battle Emperor, though somewhat tricky, was not insolvable.

If Xu Nian had not spoken up, the old man would have acted sooner or later.

Rather than that, it was better to resolve it sooner and head to Penglai sooner.

That's why Xu Nian chose to speak up, to draw the old man's attention.

"Roar!"

Seeing Xu Nian approach, the face of the crazed old man instantly showed a fierce expression.

After letting out another roar, a palm was ruthlessly slapped towards Xu Nian.

The palm contained a powerful surge of Spiritual Energy.

Shadow immediately covered her mouth in shock.

"Hmph, that kid is definitely dead."

"Once our master makes a move, that kid won't survive; serves him right for courting death."

...

Mo Tian and the Nine-star Battle Saint spoke disdainfully.

However, just when everyone thought Xu Nian was certain to die,

Xu Nian suddenly made his move, countering the old man's palm strike with a punch.

"Boom!"

A thunderous explosion rocked the sky.

The entire ship shuddered violently as terrifying waves rippled out.

Xu Nian remained unmoved.

But the old man was forced to take three steps back.

Each step he took on the deck left a deep crater.

"What?"

At that moment, everyone was stunned, their eyes nearly popping out of their heads.

This young man actually blocked a punch from a Five-star Battle Emperor Level elder?

"Am I seeing things?" exclaimed Mo Tian, his eyes widened in shock.

"You're not seeing things, because I saw it too," the youth at the Peak of a Nine-star Battle Saint said, equally astounded. "Our great-uncle has been pushed back by his punch."

"Could it be that great-uncle didn't use his full strength?" The Seven-star Battle Saint who had been injured also couldn't help but speak.

This scene was simply too shocking.

A young man, actually blocked an attack from their great-uncle?

You should know that despite employing a Spirit Talisman left by a Battle Emperor Expert, he was still gravely wounded.

And now this youngster had just taken a palm strike from their great-uncle head-on without flinching.

How could he not be shocked?

Shadow was also stunned.

She couldn't comprehend what had just happened.

"It seems we were all mistaken," the steward elder said after recovering from his shock.

"Yes, this young man is definitely an Emperor-level strong man, and not just a weak one at that," Captain An Long said, puzzled.

Suddenly, the two of them exchanged glances.

Because they had thought of someone.

A youngster who had recently gained great fame.

If there was anyone with the strength to withstand this elder, it would probably only be this young man.

Of course, the most surprised were Zhang Peng and Li Tao.

They had originally thought Xu Nian was younger and thus assumed his Cultivation would be lower than theirs.

But now, they realized how wrong they were.

And quite spectacularly at that.

This young man before them not only surpassed them in strength, but had also reached a level they could not fathom.

"Roar!"

The old man, having been staggered by Xu Nian's punch, seemed somewhat taken aback as well.

He let out another roar at Xu Nian.

A terrifying pressure was released, bearing down viciously on Xu Nian.

The might of a Five-star Battle Emperor made everyone else's faces turn pale with fear.

Zhang Peng and Li Tao began spewing blood from their mouths, as they were sent flying backward.

Even Captain An Long and the others felt the terrible pressure of a great boulder on them, making it hard to breathe.

Yet, faced with this pressure, Xu Nian's expression did not change.

"Trying to exert pressure on me? I'm afraid your Cultivation is not enough," Xu Nian said with a slight smile.

After he spoke, he took a step forward.

Then a powerful pressure emanated from him as well.

It actually completely resisted the old man's momentum, standing on an equal footing with him.

"A One-star Spiritual Body Dual Emperor? Am I seeing this right?"

Everyone around, seeing this, had their eyes wide open, revealing an incredibly shocked expression.

This young man before them was indeed an Emperor-level strong man.

And not just at Battle Emperor Level—he had even reached Emperor Realm in Body Cultivation.

The disciples from Penglai witnessing this scene were also so shocked that they couldn't utter a word.

Especially Mo Tian, his face ashen as if he had been slapped, felt utterly humiliated.
