Eternal Bonds: A Journey with the Fated Immortal-Chapter 148
Chapter 148
Such an enormous contrast left the Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom in a complete daze. His expression was blank and was unable to accept this reality.
“Forget it. What revenge is there to think about? Let’s go, let’s leave this heavenly realm!”
The Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom heaved a deep sigh, as if he had lost all his spirit. His former fighting spirit had vanished as he spoke bitterly to himself.
He had already given up.
If he dared to seek revenge against Su Changsheng now, he would likely be killed with just a casual point of a finger.
He didn’t want to die so pathetically.
Boom!
The Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom took one last deep look at the ancient ground before him, then turned and left.
“Su Changsheng!”
Not long after the Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom’s departure, in the deepest part of this ancient ground, within a dark world, thousands of terrifying auras flickered in and out of existence.
Among them, a figure was whispering and was emanating an incredibly frightening aura.
It was at the supreme being level.
“Such a head of the number one prodigy throughout the ages would make a fitting trophy for the Netherworld!”
He muttered to himself.
Boom!
In the next moment, he reached out his hand, and the Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom who had already left this ancient ground was instantly grabbed back, held in his palm and was filled with terror.
“Little one, tell me some information about this Su Changsheng!”
The figure lowered his head and chuckled.
His figure was immense, towering and immeasurable, filling the void, emanating terrifying waves of aura.
Like an endless purgatory, within which countless beings wailed in agony.
“Pa... Palace Master...”
The Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom was extremely frightened, his voice trembling. He never imagined he would attract the attention of the Netherworld Palace Master.
The Netherworld.
This was an extremely terrifying assassin dynasty, spread throughout many heavenly realms, claiming they dared to assassinate even Great Emperors, and had successfully assassinated more than one Great Emperor.
Within their Netherworld, there existed a Great Emperor of the Killing Path.
And this ancient ground’s Netherworld branch before them was one of its subsidiary palaces, with its Palace Master being a supreme being.
Known as the Dark Supreme Being.
The Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom was actually an inner circle assassin of the Netherworld.
His Heavenly Kingdom organization was merely an imitation of the Netherworld. It was something he had created in its image.
“Speak!”
This Dark Supreme Being smiled, his eyes like black suns, looking down at the Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom.
“Yes...”
Soon, under the Dark Supreme Being’s command, the Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom tremblingly reported everything about Su Changsheng.
“Interesting!”
The Dark Supreme Being chuckled, casually pinching and killing the Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom as if crushing an ant.

Or rather, to him, ordinary Great Saint powerhouses like the Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom were practically no different from ants.
“No matter how heaven-defying a prodigy might be, it’s impossible to advance so rapidly. He must be a reincarnated Ancient Great Emperor, or perhaps even a Heavenly Emperor? Hehe, now that’s worth something!”
The Dark Supreme Being sneered, his eyes flickering, like a predator eyeing delicious prey.
For an assassin supreme being who walked in darkness like him, forget about a reincarnated Great Emperor, he had even attempted to assassinate the actual current-era Great Emperors.
“I hope you won’t disappoint me!”
……
Elsewhere, in the True Phoenix Heavenly Realm, a vast heavenly realm ruled by the True Phoenix Clan.
Boom!
At this moment, within a divine domain filled with endless volcanoes, in a palace of flames, a terrifying supreme being’s might erupted, shaking heaven and earth.
“Su Changsheng has gone too far!”
A terrifying voice echoed, carrying overwhelming fury as it roared.
The endless volcanoes shook violently.
Throughout this realm, countless powerful beings were struck with fear. They couldn’t understand why the supreme being of the True Phoenix Clan was so enraged.
“Just killing an ordinary Quasi-Emperor was one thing, but how dare he kill the Void Emperor’s son? This is a provocation against my True Phoenix Clan!”
Within a magnificent palace, an elderly man with crimson hair and red robes roared in anger. He emanated supreme divine might capable of shaking countless temporal spaces.
This was indeed a supreme being.
If not for the countless Great Emperor array markings here suppressing all four directions of heaven and earth, more than one divine domain would have likely shattered under his mere presence.
“Indeed, Su Changsheng is too arrogant. Even if he is the number one prodigy throughout the ages, what of it? He’s still just a Great Saint. We must kill him, or this humiliation cannot be washed away!”
Among them, another figure spoke up. Their tone was ice-cold and filled with killing intent.
There were five people present in total, each surrounded by terrifyingly supreme auras.
They were the supreme leaders of the Phoenix Void Path* lineage, and they all harbor hostility toward the Ninth Princess.
(TN: The hanzi used here is Huang Xu Dao.)
Initially, they were shocked by Su Changsheng’s position as number one on the Supreme Saint Rankings, and had planned to recruit him. They were hoping to establish friendship and gain his alliance.
However, upon learning that Huang Xudao died at Su Changsheng’s hands, they immediately turned hostile, their fury reaching the heavens.
To them, the True Phoenix Clan was supreme above all, and all other living beings were merely lowly insects.
They even looked down upon the Ninth Princess.
Now that their lineage’s Imperial Son had been killed by a human cultivator whom they had previously despised, even if it was Su Changsheng who did it, they were still filled with boundless fury.
They couldn’t wait to strike and kill Su Changsheng.
“Hmph! What does it matter if he has a Heavenly Emperor’s weapon? His cultivation is still too weak. With my supreme imperial weapon, I refuse to believe I can’t suppress a mere Great Saint!”
The earlier crimson-haired elder spoke coldly.
The True Phoenix Clan was incredibly formidable as they possessed more than one Great Emperor, and possibly even Immortals, so naturally, they wouldn’t lack imperial weapons.
The Phoenix Void Path lineage alone possessed two supreme imperial weapons. If deployed, they could destroy everything, enough to shake even an Imperial Court power.
“Good, let’s deploy the imperial weapons and eliminate this youngster!”
Another supreme being spoke with murderous intent. They cared nothing for so-called ancient prodigies.
Since ancient times, countless peerless prodigies had died, all struck down halfway along their paths.
Unrisen prodigies of ancient times, no matter how talented they were, were nothing but dead men.
“Enough!”
Just as the supreme beings had made their resolution with murderous intent, a cold voice rang out, carrying the terrifying might of a Great Emperor, surging toward them with overwhelming pressure.
The supreme beings’ hearts trembled, their minds going blank, almost shuddering under this Great Emperor’s might.
“This Su Changsheng is Huang’er’s husband, and thus our True Phoenix Clan’s son-in-law. He is family. Your grievances end here!”
The indifferent voice rang out.
“Clan Leader, this isn’t fair! Young Master Huang Xudao was the Ancestor’s own son. When he returns from the Immortal Realm and learns of this news, he surely won’t let this matter rest!”
The crimson-haired elder, though trembling in his soul, still managed to speak out in anger.
“Indeed, even though you’re a Great Emperor, you cannot make us give up. This is a humiliation!”
“The Great Emperor of our lineage will soon return, and even though you’re a Great Emperor, you cannot quell his fury!”
One supreme being after another spoke up, their tones ice-cold and filled with endless rage.
“The Ancient Immortal Realm... come to think of it, it’s about time for it to open. It seems a batch of old rivals will be returning.”
Hearing this, that voice murmured with a hint of nostalgia.
But quickly, his tone shifted.
“Then we’ll wait until he returns to discuss this. For now, I forbid any of you to make a move. Otherwise, don’t blame me for suppressing you!”
His tone was cold and absolute, brooking no argument.
Soon, the voice disappeared, and that terrifying imperial might receded like the tide.
“Detestable!”
“Ji Huang? A lowly woman with human blood! How dare she claim to be our clan’s princess?”
“Hmph! If that’s how it is, then we’ll wait for the Great Emperor’s return to settle all accounts!”
“Come to think of it, it won’t be long now. In less than ten years, the Ancient Immortal Realm will open, and then the Great Emperor can return!”
“The Ancient Immortal Realm holds great opportunities. The Great Emperor must have gained immense benefits there, greatly advancing his power. When he returns, everything will be settled!”
One supreme being after another growled with reluctance, their eyes surging with killing intent. But finally, they all calmed down, and then this place was submerged in overwhelming crimson light.
They would wait for the Great Emperor’s return.
Meanwhile, in the True Saint Continent, within the Su family, Su Changsheng was dumbfounded.
“You’re saying all nine of them want to marry me?”
Su Changsheng’s gaze was incredibly strange.
Before him, nine exceptionally beautiful women stood separately, and all of them were Quasi-Emperors.
