Chapter 1964: Chapter 1539: Capturing the Great Heavenly Sovereign (Part 2)
The Great Supre Lord Xuan Huang sat quietly atop the mountain.
In front of her, a painting easel was erected.
The Great Supre Lord Xuan Huang was slowly recording the beautiful scenery before her with ink and brush.
For one who could capture the entirety of the Xuanhuang World with a re thought, this act seed aningless.
Yet, Li Fan could see that the Great Supre Lord seed to enjoy herself.
Every stroke was executed with utmost care. Occasionally dissatisfied, she would furrow her brow and conceal the ink to repaint.
A fresh wind gently swept across the mountain, and ti slowly passed by.
Just as the Great Supre Lord Xuan Huang was about to complete her painting, her eyes filled with visible delight and satisfaction.
In the painting, across the mountains and fields, countless corpses inexplicably appeared.
A mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, reeking with malevolent energy.
A blood moon rose in the sky.
Completely destroying the originally fresh and beautiful ambiance.
“Who goes there!” The Great Supre Lord Xuan Huang was both shocked and furious, suddenly turning around to scan the surroundings.
She happened to see Li Fan’s seemingly amused expression.
Rationally considering, for soone to approach without her noticing, and modify her painting at will.
The strength of this Li Fan, who appeared so abruptly, was undoubtedly far superior to hers.
If Li Fan were in her position, he would not easily attack such a formidable being.
But this Great Supre Lord before her seed to have lost so of her reason in her rage over the ruined painting.
She still chose to make a move against Li Fan.
The smile on her lips gradually dissipated, as Li Fan rely uttered a single word.
“Stop!”
In her wrathful attack, the Great Supre Lord Xuan Huang was rendered immobile in an instant!
Only then did she slowly co to her senses.
The astonishnt on her face was unmistakable.
One must understand that, as the Xuanhuang Heavenly Sovereign, she could freely wield the power of the Xuan Huang Heavenly Earth. Yet now…
Before this person.
Her connection with Heaven and Earth seed severed.
Or rather, even with the power of the entire Xuanhuang World, she was still utterly suppressed by this person.
The Great Supre Lord was not dull-witted, and she instantly connected this to the previously inexplicable descent of the [Xuanhuang True Immortal].
Only a fairy could possess such power.
Compared to a True Immortal, the Great Supre Lord was clearly not on the sa level.
Having inherited the duties of the Great Supre Lord, she was well aware that the so-called Great Supre Lord Xuan Huang was rely an appointed Immortal Servant.
Therefore, she quickly put away her pride.
Even though the actual age of this True Immortal before her should be far younger than hers.
Li Fan had only immobilized her actions, not her speech.
Realizing this, the Great Supre Lord spoke: “Why do you mock , senior?”
As her voice drifted out, Li Fan began to faintly understand why Mr. Bai was so infatuated with a Mortal.
Even after realizing he was being used, he did not change his mind.
Still, such ans were ineffective in front of Li Fan.
“Xuanhuang soldiers fight to the death on the front lines. You, as the Great Supre Lord Xuanhuang, indulge in poetry and painting here…” Li Fan scoffed coldly.
Simulating power close to the Power of the Ink Killing Immortal Soul, he surged it toward the Great Supre Lord.
Initially, the expression of the Great Supre Lord remained composed as she calmly explained: “The duties of the Great Supre Lord lie only within the Xuanhuang World. The distant campaign against Tai Yuan is not my…”
Mid-sentence, her voice uncontrollably altered in pitch.
The Power of the Ink Killing Immortal Soul could annihilate everything. The connection between the Great Supre Lord and the Xuanhuang World could not escape it either.
Even though her body and divine soul felt no pain, she was drenched in cold sweat.
In reality, she no longer wished to continue as the Great Supre Lord, and had already begun seeking a suitable successor. Yet voluntary resignation and forced removal were entirely different matters.
The intense fear she had not felt for ages almost overwheld her entirely. Nonetheless, she resisted the urge to plead for her life.
She endured stoically, explaining the reasons for not going to the Tai Yuan front line.
Objectively, they were indeed reasonable and justified.
But Li Fan had only co to cause her trouble, so these reasons were entirely ineffective.
The destructive thods continued unabated.
Observing this, the Great Supre Lord sighed softly: “I acknowledge my neglect of duty. Whatever punishnt you deem fit, senior, I will accept. My only concern is that a successor for the Heavenly Sovereign of the Xuanhuang World has yet to be chosen. Without a Heavenly Sovereign to manage the affairs of Xuanhuang, chaos might ensue.”
“Of course, if you, senior, are willing to mind these trivial matters of billions of Mortals and the Immortal Dao Ten Clans, then consider my words misspoken.”
She genuinely seed willing to accept her punishnt, as until the very last mont when her connection to the Xuan Huang Heavenly Earth was almost severed, she showed Li Fan no hostility.
She rely endured silently.
This caused Li Fan to reassess her.
Maintaining the last sliver of connection, Li Fan finally ceased his actions.
“How long have you served as the Great Supre Lord?” he asked, staring intently.
“Since King of Mystic Sky departed, it has been sixteen thousand three hundred and forty-two years,” the Great Supre Lord quickly replied.
“According to the Immortal World’s laws, each Great Supre Lord should not serve beyond ten thousand years. In truth, I have long surpassed the service limit. However, since the destruction of the Immortal World, normal procedures for appointnts and removals have ceased to function.”
“And I have yet to find a suitable successor…”
The Great Supre Lord spoke softly, her tone slightly resigned.
“For your discernnt, senior, during my tenure, I have diligently maintained the stability and vitality of the Xuan Huang Heavenly Earth, fulfilling my responsibilities. This can be attested by the Immortal Dao Ten Clans.” She quickly shifted the topic to her contributions.
“Yet I see the intent to leave in you,” Li Fan glanced at her and said blandly.
This was the most secret matter in the Great Supre Lord’s heart, yet Li Fan revealed it with one sentence, jolting her spirit.
Her response was swift, readily admitting: “After toiling for tens of thousands of years, tiredness naturally sets in. The duties fulfilled, the desire to step away is a common human emotion.”
—————–
Quickly revised back. Apologies.
She endured stoically, explaining the reasons for not going to the Tai Yuan front line.
Objectively, they were indeed reasonable and justified.
But Li Fan had only co to cause her trouble, so these reasons were entirely ineffective.
The destructive thods continued unabated.
Observing this, the Great Supre Lord sighed softly: “I acknowledge my neglect of duty. Whatever punishnt you deem fit, senior, I will accept. My only concern is that a successor for the Heavenly Sovereign of the Xuanhuang World has yet to be chosen. Without a Heavenly Sovereign to manage the affairs of Xuanhuang, chaos might ensue.”

She rely endured silently.
This caused Li Fan to reassess her.
Maintaining the last sliver of connection, Li Fan finally ceased his actions.
“How long have you held the position of Great Heavenly Sovereign?” he asked, gazing intently.
“Since the King of Mystic Sky departed, it has been sixteen thousand three hundred and forty-two years,” the Great Supre Lord replied promptly.
“According to the legal code of the Immortal World, each Xuanhuang Heavenly Sovereign should serve no more than ten thousand years. In reality, I have long exceeded my term limit. It’s just that since the fall of the Immortal World, the normal procedures for appointnts and removals have ceased to function.”
“And I have yet to find a suitable successor…”
The Great Supre Lord spoke softly, her tone carrying a hint of resignation.
“Let the elders be the judge, during my tenure as the Great Supre Lord, I have maintained the stability and vitality of the Xuan Huang Heavenly Earth, and fulfilled my responsibilities. This is sothing that the Immortal Dao Ten Clans can attest to.” She quickly pivoted to enurate her contributions.
“But it seems you wish to leave,” Li Fan glanced at her and said flatly.
This was the most secret matter in the Great Supre Lord’s heart, but Li Fan had exposed it in one sentence, shocking her deeply.
Her response was swift, and she admitted on the spot: “I have grown weary after thousands of years of toil. The duties have been fulfilled, and the desire to withdraw is a common human sentint.”
