"Boom!"

A large puff of black mist appeared on the streets before taking the shape of a human. As soon as it appeared on the streets, it soared upwards as though trying to escape into the skies.

Everyone around strained their eyes to get a better look of the spirit, before they heard a loud "kwa-dang" sound.

The spirit flew several hundreds meters up when it was violently stopped in its tracks by the metal chains around it and was pulled back down.

"Roar!" The spirit roared its head back and let out a fearsome roar, its face was filled with sinister hatred.

At this point, everyone around were stumped as their eyes opened wide in apparent disbelief!

"Previous Emperor, this... This is the previous Emperor, His Majesty?"

"How’s this possible?"

"My god. Didn’t the previous Emperor pass away in his Imperial Tomb?"

"No. This is his spirit. The spirit of the previous Emperor!"

"Could it be that the previous Emperor didn’t die? His spirit is still alive!"

The Imperial Guards were exclaiming in fear, their faces filled with bewildered expressions.

They had all seen the drawing of the past few reigning monarchs and were thus very familiar with the previous Emperors. That’s why soon as they saw his features, they were all stumped.

In this world, there were not much stories about the supernatural realm.

To a cultivator, it was alright if his physical body died. As long as his spirit continued living, there was a chance in which he might return to life through reincarnation.

Everyone around were all very suspicious. The previous Emperor had lived out his last remaining days after his lifeforce had expired. Under such a situation, both his physical body and spirit would’ve died. How could he show up here?

The Fire Emperor was stumped as well. Seeing his father appear before him, he almost fell to his knees and shouted out, "Father Emperor!"

He managed to get a good look as well and was certain that this spirit was definitely his father.

The Water Empress was clearly startled by this as well. According to the tales she had heard of the previous Fire Emperor, he had been an evil and fearsome man!

"Kwa dang!"

At this point, the Fire Nation’s previous Emperor tried to soar into the clouds once again but was being restricted by the chains around his body. He couldn’t move very far without being pulled back violently.

The crowd then reacted to the sight before them and understood. This previous Fire Emperor had been captured!

Everyone fell into despair and deafening silence.

All eyes were on Xu Que.

The heavily rusted chains which restrained the spirit was held in Xu Que’s hands!

The chains were extremely old and seemed to give off a certain iciness to it. When everyone looked at the chains, they couldn’t help but tremble. Their own souls felt extremely frightful just by looking at the chains!

"Outrageous! How dare you, small bandit! You dare to show disrespect to the previous Emperor. Give me your life!"

The Fire Emperor was clearly enraged. Regardless of whether this anger came from the admiration and love he had for his father or from preserving the integrity of the previous Emperor, it didn’t matter. He had to act!

"Boom doom!"

A powerful and majestic Dragon Flame erupted in the air as it wrapped around the clouds, resembling a golden colored dragon in the skies. It was enormous that it almost seemed to obstruct the skies from the land. It coiled around for several moments before shooting straight for Xu Que.

"Dog Emperor, have you forgotten the pain once your scars have healed?" Xu Que laughed coldly as he clenched his fists and soared into the air, straight for the golden colored Dragon Flame with his fists extended out!

The entire air was filled with rippling air, twisting around Xu Que.

"Boom!"

A loud and dull thud resounded as the gargantuan golden flame was punched and exploded ferociously. Before long, it was reduced to a tiny ember as it scattered into the skies.

The crowd opened their mouths wide, all of them were filled with tremendous fear.

A single punch... A single punch was enough to scatter the Fire Emperor’s Dragon Flame?

My god. Who was this person? His physical strength was so powerful!

"Whoosh!"

Xu Que floated in the air, as he swept down towards the Fire Emperor. He held the chains in his left hand, dragging the previous Fire Emperor with him and laughed out coldly, "Dog Emperor, I’ve dragged your father here to meet you. Instead of showing appreciation to me, you actually tried to attack me? How evil and vile!"

"It’s you?" The Fire Emperor seemed to have recognized Xu Que. His face fell and he retreated several steps back.

He could recognize Xu Que from his tone and the sound of his voice. All this made him snap out of his thoughts in fear.

Xu Que then peeled off his Human Skinned Mask. After all, there was no need for any disguise now, because... It was finally time to act tough!

"Shua!"

As soon as his mask was removed, his handsome face with such eloquent features were revealed to everyone around.

The Imperial Guards standing aside were all astonished by the revelations!

"The previous Lord Prince Consort, Xu Que!"

"My god! Why is he here again?"

"He really wouldn’t rest until either he or the Fire Emperor is dead. But how did he manage to sneak into our midst?"

"Fuck, we’ve been betrayed and nobody realized this?"

"Quickly protect the Fire Emperor! Rescue the spirit of the previous Fire Emperor!"

These Imperial Guards were all extremely loyal to the Emperor. When a crisis presented itself, these guards were unafraid of death and would rise to the occasion. All of them flew into the air and surrounded the Fire Emperor.

Even the Water Empress who was calm and composed was stumped by this. She was completely taken aback.

No matter how she thought, she wouldn’t ever have figured out that Hua Wu Que and Xu Que were the same person!

Heavens...

"This... This kid really knows how to have fun! He even managed to deceive me!" The Water Empress was very shocked by everything she had witnessed. She was especially astounded by Xu Que’s current strength, for it had improved leaps and bounds since the last time they met by the Soul Tower. In fact, it was stronger by a hundred times over!"

With such ferocity shown, even she was somewhat shaken!

"Dog Emperor, why don’t you roll over here and kowtow to your old man?" Xu Que dragged the chain which was attached to the Spirit Prison Pagoda as he exclaimed.

The Fire Emperor had already retreated a safe distance away from Xu Que but his eyes were cast on the spirit who was his father.

Indeed, the spirit of the previous Fire Emperor was the same as any other spirit, completely lacking in intelligence and resembled a rabid dog. It’s face was filled with anger as it struggled unrelentingly, trying to escape from the chains.

The crowd started to feel like something wasn’t right. Why did the previous Emperor’s spirit behave so strangely?

The Fire Emperor’s brows furrowed as well and suspicions welled up within his eyes.

He could be certain that this was the spirit of his father but the spirit was acting so strangely as though it had completely lost all intellect. It still retained its previous likeness, but it wasn’t the same father Emperor which he once revered.

Thinking about this point, the Fire Emperor then heaved a sigh.

In actual fact, he didn’t wish for his father Emperor to be alive as well, for he was too accustomed to ruling and sitting on the throne. He didn’t wish to have to obey anyone or come under the powers of anyone ever again.

"What a good deception, you bandit. But you actually dared to create an illusion of my father Emperor’s spirit to deceive everyone. I shall not fall for it! The last time, you managed to flee. This time, it’s not going to happen again!" As soon as the Fire Emperor said this, he insinuated that the spirit which Xu Que was holding onto was a fake.

Because this was the only way which he could break Xu Que’s plans and not be restrained by the image of his father. It was only in doing so, that everyone under the heavens wouldn’t blame him for hurting the peacefulness of his own father.

However, the Fire Emperor had fallen right into Xu Que’s plans, for his predictions were off.

Xu Que had long expected him to say this. He thus chuckled and pointed at the Spirit Prison Pagoda.

"Whoosh!"

With a ray of white light, yet another black shadow emerged from the pagoda. Likewise, another chain extended out from the tip of the pagoda. Fearsome waves of crushing pressure emanated out and filled the atmosphere.

Xu Que then spoke, "Aren’t you evil? How can you disown your Father Emperor and call him a fake? Fine then. Look at this, how can your grandfather be fake as well?"

"Hssss..."

Everyone around sucked in a breath of cold air as they watched the new spirit who had just materialized and were all afraid.

The Fire Emperor’s grandfather, that’s the previous previous Fire Emperor!

Why is he here too?

The Fire Emperor was taken aback by this and looks of disbelief could be seen written across his face

The Water Empress opened her mouth in shock as well.

At this point, Xu Que then pointed at the Spirit Prison Pagoda once again.

"Whoosh!" A third spirit emerged from the pagoda!

Xu Que’s face was filled with smiles, "Dog Emperor, look, even your great grandfather is here. Quick look and tell me if he’s fake too? Hurry up will you? Your father, your grandfather and your great grandfather... are all waiting for you to come and kowtow to them!"
