Awakening Of The Ancient: Rise Of The Fallen 25 Chapter 23: Spy Of The Demon Realm

"Her room? Is everything alright?"Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu let out as he hurriedly walked towards Yue's room.

"Ah...yes " Mengchan replied to him though she herself wasn't sure after watching what she saw before.

"Yue?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu called out before he opened the door and entered inside.

"What the?" He couldn't help but exclaim as soon as he opened the door.

The first thing his eyes fell on was Xu Liang who was sitting in a meditative pose.

Xu Liang had his eyes closed and he looked like he was lost in his cultivation. 

Unbeknownst to him, there was a powerful vortex around him. The vortex was made of the purest Qi present in the Heavenly Realm. The strange thing was that the vortex was only 1 meter wide and didn't affect anything in the room. Most of the room looked completely unaffected as if this phenomenon was taking place only for Xu Liang.

Yue was still sleeping peacefully in her room covered in a blanket, unaware of anything.

"That's!!! Origin Energy!!!" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu let out with a shocked look on his face.

"Impossible! Only people with the purest bloodline of the Heavenly Realm or Demon Realm can use Origin Energy without reaching that Cultivation Realm! He hasn't even broken through to the immortal realm, let alone that realm! How can a mortal use Origin Energy to cultivate!" War G.o.d Zhen let out with a disbelieving look on his face.

A heavy killing intent filled the room as the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor brought his sword out.

"There's no doubt about it! He is the sp.a.w.n of the demons! A spy from the demon realm sent here to infiltrate and weaken us!!! I will kill that b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" Ill.u.s.trious Emperor let out loudly as he raised his sword high in the sky. A scary sword intent appeared. Just as he was about to strike down, a hand appeared and grabbed his sword midway.

The sword that looked like it could cut the whole world in half, couldn't do anything to the hand that grabbed its sharp blade making it unable to move forward.

"You dare try to hurt my son!!!" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said as his aura spread in the room. The aura was clearly stronger than the aura of the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor.

"What the h.e.l.l are you doing! He is a demon! We can't let him live!" Ill.u.s.trious Emperor roared in anger as he stared at the Heavenly Emperor.

"Mu Qing! My brother has been charmed by that demon! I'll stop him, you go and kill that demon." Ill.u.s.trious Emperor said to his concubine in a serious tone.

"Yes dear," She said as she walked forward. Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu didn't divert his attention as to him, Ill.u.s.trious Emperor was the real concern. As for Mu Qing, there was no need to worry about her.

"I'm sorry Miss Qing, but I can't allow you to hurt Prince Liang. If you take a single step forward, You will be considered as a traitor of the Heavenly Realm for trying to harm the son of His Majesty. I wouldn't think twice before cutting you down." War G.o.d Zhen said as a demonic smile appeared on his face. He stood in between My Qing and Xu Liang with his heavy sword pointing towards her.

"You!!! Why are you trying to save a demon? I've never seen you being so stubborn when it comes to the safety of the Heavenly Realm!" Ill.u.s.trious Emperor again said in an effort to convince Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu.

"I've told everyone that I checked him! He is not a demon. He doesn't have any demonic qi or demonic blood! Are you calling me a liar?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said with an angry look on his face.

"Maybe they used some special artifact or skill to hide his cultivation! Him being able to use Origin Energy is the biggest proof that he is a demon!" Ill.u.s.trious Emperor responded hurriedly.

"I AM HEAVENLY EMPEROR TIAN ZHU! DO YOU REALLY THINK I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO TELL SUCH A THING!" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said as a little bit of killing intent appeared in his eyes.

"Then give me a reason!!! How can he use Origin Energy? Don't tell me that he is your illegitimate son and have a Heavenly Bloodline." Even the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor lost control of his anger as he said in a mocking tone.

"If you weren't my brother, I would have cut your neck off right here right now! He can use Origin Energy because of his ancient special physique!" The Heavenly Emperor replied as he tried to control his anger.

"Special Physique? What special physique?" Ill.u.s.trious Emperor let out a shocked look on his face.

"Go and ask Wen Yin! You won't believe me either way! Leave my palace this instant!" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhe said to the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor as he freed his sword.

"Mu Qing! We're going back! " Ill.u.s.trious Emperor said to his concubine with an ugly expression on his face.

"Ah...yes." Mu Qing, who hadn't moved a single step forward in fear of War G.o.d Zhen, turned back and hurriedly walked towards the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor. They both left the palace.

"Ancient Special Physique? A Physique that can allow a human to use the Origin Energy to cultivate? Why didn't I hear anything about it?" Ill.u.s.trious Emperor muttered as he flew in his Heavenly Jade Eagle. The Heavenly Jade Eagle flew not towards the palace of the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor, but towards the palace of the G.o.ddess of Medicine Wen Yin.

"Your Majesty, do you really think his physique can allow him to use Origin Energy?" War G.o.d Zhen inquired as soon as the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor left.

"I'm not sure... but that's the only possible explanation I could think of. The only thing I'm sure of is that he doesn't have any link to the demon realm!" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said in a calm manner as he gazed at the vortex of pure energy around Tian Zhu.

"I hope that it's really the case." War G.o.d Zhen muttered as he gazed at Xu Liang.

Ill.u.s.trious Emperor landed in front of the palace of the G.o.ddess of Medicine as he walked towards the door.

"Please stop your highness. I will go inform Mistress first." A guard at the door said as he stopped the  Ill.u.s.trious Emperor.

Without saying much, Ill.u.s.trious Emperor brought his sword out and swung it with immense strength.

All the guards were cut in half as he continued ahead. He opened the gate and entered the palace.
