80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled

Chapter 101: Everyone Has Weaknesses

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The rain continued to fall from the skies.

But the surging Wei River had become quiet.

The dragon’s tomb sat coldly in the center of the Wei River.

36 stone statues in the shape of swords surrounded and suppressed it.

Demon King Jiao let out an indignant roar from the inside, but he couldn’t do anything at all because his body had been penetrated by the 36 swords.

The swords didn’t kill him, but they nailed him firmly to the riverbed.

He couldn’t move at all.

Everyone was stunned by the outcome of the battle.

The Demon King Jiao, who caused trouble by commanding the rain and the clouds for thousands of miles resulting in a heavy downpour…

The Demon King Jiao, who made millions of people kneel down to him in worship…

That same Demon King Jiao was suppressed just like that?

Who exactly was this person who suppressed him?

In the Imperial Capital, the powerhouses of the aristocratic families, the rogue cultivators, the sect powerhouses, and the royal consecrators were all watching with their necks stretched high.

Thousands of miles away, they could only see Lin Jiufeng’s back.

He was dressed entirely in green, his black hair was tied into a bun, and his sleeves moved with the wind.

He looked truly otherworldly and powerful.

Lin Jiufeng’s face couldn’t be seen at all.

Some people became apprehensive.

Just how powerful was this expert?

Imperial Capital, Forbidden City.

Both Emperor De and Princess Yulin found themselves speechless.

The way they looked at the world had changed.

Even Princess Yulin found it hard to believe what she just saw.

And she was someone who had once slaughtered her way to the Wolf Storey Mountain…

Her feat back then had shocked the world speechless, but what she had done didn’t seem comparable to the scene that she just witnessed today.

When Demon King Jiao commanded the wind and the clouds, everyone could feel the terrifying might he possessed. They were certain that he held power beyond that of the Human God Realm.

The people of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow were only in the Human God Realm at most.

Princess Yulin thought that her mysterious master was a powerhouse who had entered the Grotto-Heaven Realm.

But from the looks of it, she couldn’t be more wrong.

Emperor De coughed and said, “Why didn’t I know before that such a powerful Big Grand-Uncle existed?”

He really regretted it. If it was Lin Jiufeng who gave him pointers when he was cultivating back then, he would’ve been a Human God Realm expert by now.

But he was still happy for Princess Yulin. After all, they were related by blood. Moreover, both of them were happy that the person who had suppressed Demon King Jiao was their big Grand-Uncle, an ancestor that belonged to the same lineage as them.

Especially Princess Yulin…

In the past, she was afraid of disturbing Lin Jiufeng.

She was afraid she might accidentally elicit his fury.

But now that she knew the truth, she felt that she had to go and see this Big Grand-Uncle of hers.

Then, she would tell him that she had never once slacked off in the five years that passed.

Right now, she judged that her swordsmanship must be up to his standards at the very least.

…

Ever since they reappeared in this era…

The Zenith Heaven Path Sect whose foundation had taken root close to the Imperial Capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty had long regarded the dynasty as their own.

They were already prepared to make a move.

After so many years of preparation, they decided that it was about time.

After all, some of their original powerhouses from the previous era had already awakened with most of them having already recovered at least ten percent of their full strength.

Recovering at least ten percent of their original strength so early into this brand new era was already something to celebrate about.

The Zenith Heaven Path Sect was about to enact their plan of controlling the Yuhua God Dynasty and turning it into a secular dynasty of the Zenith Heaven Path Sect.

As for why they didn’t make a move after deliberating for so long, it was because they were afraid of the hidden expert within the Imperial Capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty.

They were afraid of the hidden expert who gave Princess Yulin pointers and told her to slaughter her way to Wolf Storey Mountain.

The Zenith Heaven Path Sect had not relaxed their search for that hidden expert in the years that passed, but they had no clue about his identity at all.

Just as they were getting impatient, they received news that the Seven Great Sages of the Monster Race and Demon Race were attacking the Imperial Capital.

With the news of their impending attack, the Zenith Heaven Path Sect stopped their plans and decided to lie low. They planned to come back and continue their plans of controlling the Yuhua God Dynasty after the dust had settled.

The Zenith Heaven Path Sect knew just how powerful the Seven Great Sages were. They didn’t want to provoke them unless it was absolutely necessary. Thus, they decided to lie low and wait for the Seven Great Sages’ victory to negotiate with them for a piece of land within the dynasty.

But…

Sect Leader Luo Yu had never imagined even in his wildest dreams that the Demon King Jiao who shook the world the moment he appeared…

The Demon King Jiao whom they could never afford to offend would actually be defeated and suppressed so easily.

It felt as if he didn’t even resist his enemy.

As for the Heaven Raising Bull, he watched silently from the side, not even daring to fart.

Sect Master Luo Yu looked at Lin Jiufeng’s green-robed back and gasped.

He softly muttered.

“This is getting more complicated now…”

Every high-ranking member of the Zenith Heaven Path Sect had gathered in the hall.

Each and every one of them was rendered speechless by the scene that they saw above the Wei River.

Lin Jiufeng’s might thoroughly scared them.

“This is just the beginning of a brand new era. Logically speaking, such a terrifying powerhouse shouldn’t appear so early, right?”

“I originally thought that it was already shocking enough to see the recovered Demon King Jiao…”

“He’s already at the peak of the Grotto-Heaven Realm. His recovery speed had surprised me when I learned about it, but knowing that he is one of the Seven Great Sages, I could still accept it…”

“But…”

“What’s up with him?”

A powerhouse from the Zenith Heaven Path Sect pointed at Lin Jiufeng’s back in surprise.

The existence of a peak Grotto-Heaven Realm expert so early in this brand new era was already unbelievable.

So, how could someone be more powerful than the current Demon King Jiao?

The high-ranking members of the Zenith Heaven Path Sect were unable to give an answer.

“Let’s keep a low profile for now. He’s too terrifying. It will be easy for him to suppress us if he wants to. Let’s not touch the Yuhua God Dynasty for now.”

Sect Master Luo Yu eventually made a decision.

In the end, he decided to first take a closer look at the situation before deciding whether they should reveal their hidden agendas to the Yuhua God Dynasty and to the world.

…

The entire world was crazily spreading the news about Lin Jiufeng.

After the battle at the Wei River, he instantly became famous.

The title of the Yuhua God Dynasty’s guardian god was once again remembered by the people.

But Lin Jiufeng couldn’t hear their conversation at this moment.

He stood on the riverbanks of the Wei River.

The pitter-patter of rainwater fell in front of his eyes.

They splashed onto the ground, eventually forming into puddles.

Rainwater fell into the Wei River.

Waves appeared on the already quiet waters.

Lin Jiufeng looked at the Heaven Raising Bull and said, “My seal won’t expire on its own, but I won’t stop him from absorbing the spiritual energy in the air. As long as he breaks my seal, he can come out.”

The Heaven Raising Bull walked to Lin Jiufeng’s side.

His body became smaller as he looked at the dragon’s tomb alongside Lin Jiufeng.

Lin Jiufeng still gave Demon King Jiao some face.

He didn’t seal him in a flood dragon’s tomb but instead used a dragon’s?tomb.¹

“I will advise him well and also stand guard for him. This suppression can also be considered to be suppressing his arrogance. Everything about him is good, just that there is a big problem with his character.” The Heaven Raising Bull sighed.

“How did all of you become brothers then?” Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.

“It’s simply because we’re lonely. Having each other around as we travel the world is a form of reassurance that we are not alone. Even now, I’m still used to having them around.” The Great Sage of Heaven Leveling said, his mood immediately turned somber.

“Each of us has our own weaknesses. As a result, we are different from each other.”

“Demon King Jiao’s weakness is that he is easily enraged.”

“And I am a glutton…”

“The others are arrogance, jealousy, laziness, greed, and lust.”

“We tolerated each other and turned our weaknesses into strengths. We became a perfect group. At least, that was what happened to us in the beginning.”

“It’s just that after we became stronger, our weaknesses also became stronger along with our cultivation realms. Soon, we became no longer compatible with each other. That is why the Seven Great Sages fell apart. In fact, it’s been so long since I’ve seen and met with the others.”

“But today, I’m finally reunited with Demon King Jiao.” The Great Sage of Heaven Leveling, Heaven Raising Bull, said.

Lin Jiufeng maintained his silence as he listened.
