The Holy Sword Emperor knitted his brows.

His expression starting to get complicated, he said, "S-smoke,..." He almost called out to the Smoke Ancestor directly but managed to stop.

He continued, "Eternal Smoke Venerable, please step back, Eternal Star Venerable is not here."

His tone sounded formal, which was odd considering they had joked a lot in the past.

Hearing that, the Smoke Ancestor who had now become the Eternal Smoke Ancestor also showed a strange expression.

He replied, "I know you're forced to be here... As an old friend, I can help you. How about you stand here."

He pointed to his side.

"I can't," the Holy Sword Emperor replied.

He then took a breath.

"We are old friends, so I will remind you, you better not disturb the Eternal Star Ancestor, you should have heard about his strength."

"I naturally know, but I am a Eternal Saint Ancestor, even if he is stronger, I am still not afraid," the Eternal Smoke Ancestor replied.

After that, he sighed.

"Looks like you really don't intend to leave him... However, I really can't attack you because of our friendship, so I hope you can go to the side," he said again.

But the Holy Sword Emperor remained motionless from where he was.

The Eternal Smoke Ancestor had no other choice but to knit his brows.

Actually now Qin Yuan had arrived, but he stopped quite far away, just watching.

The matter might have been resolved instantly if he appeared, but he chose not to because he could feel Su Mei's cultivation increasing very quickly.

The arrival of the Eternal Smoke Ancestor clearly provoked her which ultimately stimulated her bloodline. This was quite common among the Beasts.

Qin Yuan hoped that this situation could make Su Mei break through in one go.

When they fought, he might be able to launch a surprise attack on the old man.

Ever since he arrived, he had been given a mission from the System to hurt him.

At this moment, the Purple Ocean Dragon and the Directionless Monk appeared behind the Holy Sword Emperor.

The monk said, "My brother, I haven't congratulated you on your breakthrough, I think we need to have a party later... Why should these happy things be ruined by a meaningless battle?"

The Purple Ocean Dragon wasn't silent either, but as usual, he spoke more rudely.

"Smoke Ancestor, we remind you because we are friends... Don't be so confident just because you have broken through, you still don't know what peak really is."

"You..." The Eternal Smoke Ancestor's expression finally started to change.

When one's cultivation increased, their pride would increase even more.

Constantly being given such advice might make the old man feel uncomfortable.

"Are you sure you want to block me?" he asked, narrowing his eyes.

The Holy Sword Emperor and the others didn't answer, but they wore stern expressions.

At this moment, two women in black dresses appeared in front of them.

Their beauty and their incomparable aura made the tense situation a little calmer as several young people sighed in admiration.

Unfortunately, the situation became even more tense due to the words of one of the women.

"Old man, take another step and I make sure you don't leave unscathed."

The one who spoke was Qin Wuxin.

Nine black stars appeared behind her, emitting a cold dark light.

Yi Xue who was standing next to her pointed her finger at the sky.

Dark snow fell, turning the smoke in the sky into steam.

"Hmph, girl, how arrogant of you..." The Eternal Smoke Ancestor snorted.

He looked at the stars behind Qin Wuxin before continuing.

"Even though you are a Ninth Stage Divine Emperor, I am a Eternal Saint Ancestor."

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Explosion after explosion resounded from within his body before a hundred Saint Fruits leaped out.

They were all integrated with each other, just like Qin Yuan's Saint Fruits a hundred years ago.

"Stop me if you can," the Eternal Smoke Ancestor said.

After he said that, from his feet to his back suddenly turned into smoke.

He then lunged at Qin Wuxin.

Maybe the smoke made his body lighter because he was moving faster.

When the aura radiating from his body reached where Qin Wuxin and Yi Xue were, the two women took two steps back, seemingly suppressed by the aura.

They looked at each other and nodded.

Their eyes and aura became sharp, making the atmosphere cold.

However, just as they were about to take a step, they suddenly stopped as if someone else had ordered them to stop.

Their auras became calm again.

People couldn't help but be confused including the Eternal Smoke Ancestor.

"What's the matter, little girl? Are you scared now?"

The Eternal Smoke Ancestor naturally didn't stop, he grew closer to Qin Wuxin and Yi Xue.

A long staff appeared in his hand, surrounded by a lot of smoke.

With great momentum, he swung the staff at them.

Bang!

However at this moment, a loud explosion suddenly erupted from within the palace, just as loud as the explosion when the Eternal Smoke Ancestor broke through.

A boundless majestic aura then radiated, filling the Thousand Stars Continent, shocking everyone.

"Old man, my stepdaughter may be a real pain in the ass, but it's not your turn to beat her..." A charming yet smug voice resounded right after the explosive sound.

A hand full of pink feathers shot out of the palace, trying to grab onto the body of the Eternal Smoke Ancestor.

The latter had no other choice but to retreat due to the oppressive aura from that hand.

His eyes opened wide, followed by his mouth.

When he closed his mouth again, he seemed to want to say something but in the end no words came out of his mouth.

"Huh..." A soft snort resounded followed by the appearance of a red-haired woman wearing a black skirt right in front of him.

When people saw this woman, they couldn't help but say, "so beautiful..."
