Chapter 1169: Protection of the Emperors Translations

“Humph!”

The Rain Emperor suddenly took action, turning the world upside down and making it impossible to send any message out of their area of influence.

The aftermath of a battle between emperors was enough to shake an entire continent.

“You dared to interfere with the Rain Clan’s business? None of you is getting away!” said an emperor followed by a snort; the man stood next to the Rain Emperor, wearing a blood-colored robe. He suddenly dashed forward and fought to dispel Mo Yanlan’s purple light. The entire sky was filled up by the light of laws and divine power. It was dazzling.

The other two emperors from the Rain Clan also charged at the emperors fighting alongside Mo Yanlan.

The golden-armored expert, charged straight for Su Ping and the others, completely unimpeded.

“We’ll stop him. Just go!”

Some of the human experts made a sudden stop and returned, unleashing intimidating auras in an attempt to buy time.

“Humph. Stupid!”

The golden-armored expert was cold and cruel. “You’ll die without a chance to resurrect if you face me. You honestly think you can stop me?”

“We have to even if we can’t!” said a human expert, enshrouded in his burning vitality, making his figure difficult to be seen clearly. However, his voice remained unwavering. “Humans have been struggling to survive for years on end. Now that we can finally hope, we must protect this chance even if we must die. We will be remembered on the monument of humankind in the future!”

“Exactly!”

“They will surely avenge us as long as an Ancestral God emerges in our race!”

“We’re not fighting for the present, but for the future!”

“Die!”

Their killing intent rose to the sky. All of them hailed from big families with lots of descendants of their own. Even so, they were willing to sacrifice themselves for Su Ping.

It was their first time meeting Su Ping. They had only taken such actions because Su Ping had shown them hope for the rise of humanity!

Humans had been humiliated for far too long; there was no way they would waste the opportunity!

“Charge!!”

All the humans charged forward, shattering the void and reversing the time. They were unleashing infinite light and power like dazzling suns.

The golden-armored expert coldly swung his spear, instantly restoring the shattered time and space and forcing the human experts to reveal themselves.

Still, the feather-crowned human had already vanished from sight by then.

“Humankind will remember you. I will remember you!” The feather-crowned senior gritted his teeth and moved at full speed with hot tears in his eyes.

In any case, he had to protect Su Ping’s safety and help him grow.

He had just been a young cultivator when humanity was at rock bottom, and had seen countless injustices and cruelties. The high and mighty god clans would loot all the resources they wanted; the other races could only struggle, unable to keep their dignity; their family members and masters could easily be killed and humiliated.

There had been no one to stand up for them.

That had been their life all along!

Justice was only enforced with fists and blades. Humans knew that being weak would entail beatings; all vassal races were aware of that.

Alas, no one had been able to change that.

They knew they were being humiliated, but there was nothing they could do; they could only act peacefully while always being desperate.

Bang!

All of a sudden—a huge force lashed at the human emperor; the latter changed his expression. The laws in the void were twisted before his eyes, and an enormous, golden blade seemed to be cutting the earth apart.

The feather-crowned senior waved his fist and flipped his hand, cutting the golden blade; his hand turned out to be even harder than the blade.

“It wasn’t easy for an emperor such as yourself to be born in the human race.“Please reading on NℇWNOVℇL. 0℟G” Getting yourself killed is truly stupid!” A young man with a long saber on his back casually looked at the feather-crowned human.

“Get lost!”

The human emperor didn’t waste any time talking, simply attacking again. Any more time spent talking would be an insult to the humans who remained and tried to buy him some time.

He unleashed all his divine power like a furnace. Su Ping—whom he was carrying—felt as if he were in the middle of a vast, golden ocean, which was violent to the enemy but gentle toward him. Su Ping was excited by the chance to personally experience an emperor-level battle.

“Senior, just abandon me and go if needed. They cannot kill me; I have my own escaping methods,” said Su Ping telepathically; he didn’t want the man to die for nothing like the others.

The feather-crowned human didn’t respond, simply fighting the young God Emperor with full strength.

He considered Su Ping’s offer only an attempt to not be a liability. Although Emperor Ye’s clone had failed to kill the boy, he would have dug out all of Su Ping’s secrets if he were to take action; besides, the guy could always imprison him even if he couldn’t kill him.

Su Ping realized what the middle-aged man was thinking, and could only heave a sigh. He knew it would be pointless even if he explained further; the whole thing had to end.

Another person rushed over during their fierce battle. It was the golden-armored expert.

His armor was stained with blood, which didn’t belong to him.

“Humph. It’s been a long time since I’ve killed an emperor; I’m going to enjoy it!” The golden-armored expert sneered and ruthlessly joined the battle.

The feather-crowned human had an awful expression. He tried to break free, not wanting to fight them the hard way.

The human emperor was repeatedly wounded during their battle, as he was now fighting against two emperors. The gods’ physical attributes were better than those of humans. That was also why gods were at the peak.

Even the wealthier humans tended to be arrogant; it was only natural that gods would feel superior because of their bloodlines.

Bang!

The feather-crowned emperor received severe slashes and bled profusely, but he was soon healed.

“I underestimated you when I said you were just an emperor that happened to emerge from the human race.”

The two emperors of the Rain Clan had dropped their arrogance, no longer thinking that they could beat him in one on one battles. They were reminded of how Su Ping had continuously slapped their faces, so they started to treat their species with more respect.

The feather-crowned human roared and charged at them.

Bang!

All of a sudden—the golden-armored expert who was just about to stop him shook and exploded.

A dragon roar came from the void, making the world shake.

Next, several dragons akin to mountains emerged in the void. Some had fully revealed themselves, and some remained hidden in the void; they were unimaginably massive.

There were two gray-haired men amongst the dragons. One of them withdrew his spear.

“Dragon Tamers!”

“It’s you…”

The golden-armored expert walked out from a different point in space. He was safe and sound, but his face was utterly grim. That ambush had allowed the feather-crowned emperor to reach the two emperors of the Dragon Tamer faction.

They were surrounded by several dragons.

The creatures were terrifying, clearly emperors too!

They were the famous dragon emperors raised by the Dragon Tamers!

“Sorry for the late arrival.” said a gray-haired young man in a low voice as he picked up the human emperor. He then glanced at Su Ping who was still seated in the crowned man’s ear.

Su Ping saw him too, and quickly said, “Thank you very much senior.”

The young man nodded, and then looked at the golden-armored expert and his companion. “Being among those of high-ranking, the Rain Clan shouldn’t have done something this shameless, don’t you think? The Dragon Tamers will remember this!”

“Humph!”

The golden-armored expert said with an awful expression, “Your vassals insulted my clan. Are you here to apologize? I suggest you put them down, lest it would count as a war declaration against the Rain Clan!”

“War?”

The gray-haired young man couldn’t help but chuckle. “Even if we start a war, so what? It’s not your place to decide. From this day forth, the Rain Clan will be our archenemy; I believe the Divine Wind Clan will be happy to lend a hand.”

“You’re asking to be killed!” the golden-armored expert shouted furiously.

Roar!!

A roar completely interrupted and suppressed him, making everybody’s ears ring.

One of the dragons had interjected. In terms of voice, who could be louder than dragons?

The golden-armored expert looked both angry and frustrated, not expecting the Dragon Tamers to be so determined. They had clearly noticed Su Ping’s potential too; they wouldn’t have challenged the Rain Clan for the sake of some human beings.

After all, even though the Dragon Tamers were also high-ranked, they didn’t have a long history like they did.

Emperors were only the strongest when Ancestral Gods secluded themselves, and the tamed Dragon emperors weren’t as strong.

“Let’s go!” said a spear-bearing expert to the human emperor. A dragon immediately dashed over and allowed him to land on its head; then, the dragon took off.

The golden-armored expert tried to stop them, but was blocked by two dragons.

“Damn it!” The godly expert couldn’t have felt more infuriated. He wasn’t afraid of the Dragon Tamers trespassing his territory, but the other emperors of his clan were occupied and couldn’t help out. If Su Ping and the other humans did get away, they would rouse the attention of other clans and make them raise their vigilance.

After all, they had sent too few emperors.

“Bloody bastard!”

The golden-armored expert wanted to kill Su Ping a billion times over. Who would have thought that their plan to execute the human brat who had dared to kill their prince would escalate to such proportions.

The emperors had to step up, and even they had failed to capture him. They even exposed the current capabilities of the Rain Clan’s emperors.

“Die!”

The golden-armored expert ruthlessly charged, determined not to let them go that easily.

Two dragons roared and attacked them.

One of the emperors of the Dragon Tamers stayed, and the gray-haired young man followed the human emperor to protect him.

They rode the dragons and quickly left the Rain Clan’s territory.

They started teleporting after leaving enemy lands, but the Rain Emperor caught up to them soon after.

The gray-haired young man’s expression changed somewhat, but then decided to stay, asking Su Ping and the others to proceed.

The dragon was ambushed by the Rain Emperor and cut apart. It was soon healed, leaving a scar on its body. The Rain Emperor inflicted such a grave wound with a single strike; he was truly strong.

The Rain Clan is truly determined to kill him… thought the feather-crowned human, feeling cold and angry at the same time. His determination to protect Su Ping grew, and was ready to sacrifice himself if necessary.

It was very difficult to raise an emperor. Although there were thousands of princes in the Rain Clan, it would be a true miracle if one or two of them became emperors.

It would be impossible for an emperor to willingly sacrifice themselves to protect a prince.

After all, no matter how strong princes were, they could only grow into God Emperors at best.

As for the higher Ancestral Gods, they would always be shocking geniuses that would startle all gods.

In fact, Su Ping had challenged them while being a mere Celestial God, and even killed an emperor’s clone in public. He had already shocked all gods.

The high-ranked gods who observed the battle from afar had committed his look and name to memory.

Humans would have to be treated differently as long as Su Ping didn’t die.

Su Ping and the others encountered another chaser after crossing over to another continent, this time being an emperor of the Rain Clan’s vassal races.

The dragon roared and fought the enemy, then asked the feather-crowned senior to proceed.

The human emperor silently conceded, simply leading Su Ping onward.

The escort that traversed continents would soon shock all races in the world. He knew they wouldn’t be safe until they reached the Dragon Tamers’ territory.

Fortunately, he was extremely fast even for an emperor, crossing continents as if they were rivers. He soon reached the Dragon Tamers’ territory.

“Good thing the Dragon Tamers’ territory wasn’t that far off…” The human emperor only felt relief when they reached friendly grounds. His “not far off” was completely different to what others would consider. The journey would have taken months to an Ascendant, and two weeks to a Celestial. It was almost like crossing half of the universe!

They were greeted by some human experts and their hosts, the Dragon Tamers’ leaders.

“You’re finally back. I’ve heard everything.”

The human experts were thrilled to see that both the human emperor and Su Ping had reached safety.

The experts of the Dragon Tamers were also relieved. “Congratulations, there’s hope for humanity now. We’ll inform the emperors so they can stop fighting and return.”

“Okay.”

The feather-crowned man nodded solemnly. “We will forever remember your favor!”

The Dragon Tamer experts smiled. One of them said, “We are still at the border; let’s go back to our clan’s mountain. There’s nothing the Ancestral God of the Rain Clan can do even if he comes once we get there. You must be Su Ping, right? Come on. I’ll take you there.”

“Okay.” The feather-crowned human nodded.

Su Ping quickly thanked him too. He was still feeling sad because of the humans who had died defending him; he didn’t know whether or not it was possible for Ancestral Gods to bring them back to life.
