Before the demon beasts could react, an invisible, terrifying force forcibly took Mu Qingqing away from the divine tree altar.
Mu Qingqing knew she couldn't escape, so she could only channel the true essence within her to protect Xin Ci's body.
In the blink of an eye, the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors in the sky and Mu Qingqing on the divine tree altar all vanished.
The powerful oppressive aura also instantly dissipated, and the series of changes that had just occurred seemed to have never happened.
The divine tree altar also returned to its normal state, but the many demon beasts present were still filled with shock, their minds still lingering on the moment the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors made their move.
After a long while, Feng Jinyao recovered her senses, her gaze falling on the spot where Mu Qingqing had just disappeared, and she mused, "Was Xin Ci taken away by the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors?"
"Judging from the angry roar of the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors just now, that fellow named Xin Ci is probably in dire straits," Feng Jinxuan said with a frown, her words startling the other demon beasts present.
Except for the time when the Immortal Golden Dragon clan of Beast God Valley inexplicably suffered a human massacre, they had never felt the wrath of the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors again.
And this time, the fury of these two great emperors was even more intense.
The members of the Immortal Golden Dragon clan were all bewildered.
Especially the Grand Elder, he had only asked Xin Ci to undergo the divine tree blessing first, but he hadn't expected it to alarm the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors.
For the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors to be so enraged, could Xin Ci be a human?
The Grand Elder's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly realized the crucial point of the matter.
No wonder he had no impression of Xin Ci at all; there was no such person named Xin Ci in the Immortal Golden Dragon clan.
But how did that kid break through the demon essence restriction and sneak into Beast God Valley?
The more the Grand Elder thought about it, the more suspicious he became, and he quickly ordered Jin Tong to investigate the demon beasts who had contacted Xin Ci in recent days.
...
Dragon Ancestor's Earth Palace.
Mu Qingqing was suddenly brought to this mysterious place. When she regained her senses, she found herself trapped within a formation and restriction.
And this restriction was not ordinary; it had actually forced Mu Qingqing out of Xin Ci's body.
This restriction actually contained a trace of the aura of the Eternal Law!
Mu Qingqing's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief. No wonder she had lost control of Xin Ci's body.
Now, both Xin Ci and Mu Qingqing were trapped within this restriction, and two figures stood before them.
One was clad in fiery red robes, with a head of fiery red hair dancing in the wind, his face as stern as an iceberg, yet his eyes held a proud and aloof aura, exuding a sense of noble status that made it impossible to look directly at him.
The man was dressed in a luxurious dragon scale black robe, with handsome features and a physique as strong as a mountain. He also had a violent temper, like a volcano on the verge of eruption.
He stared at Mu Qingqing and Xin Ci with chilling eyes, making no attempt to conceal his powerful aura. The terrifying fluctuations of demon essence caused the surrounding space to warp.
If he hadn't intentionally suppressed his power, the surrounding space would have likely been shattered and collapsed by this demon essence.
Mu Qingqing and Xin Ci both knew that these two must be the rulers of Beast God Valley, the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors!
The Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors exuded a chilling aura, and both powerful beings stared at them with killing intent in their eyes.
Such intense killing intent made Mu Qingqing and Xin Ci feel a tremor in their hearts.
Without a doubt, in front of these two, their human identities had finally been exposed.
Mu Qingqing narrowed her eyes, contemplating countermeasures.
But the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors were not easy to deal with.
With her current strength, she could at most deal with one Four-Star Great Emperor, and she was no match for two Five-Star Great Emperors.
Xin Ci, on the other hand, did not fear the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors. He instinctively stood in front of Mu Qingqing. Even though he could imagine the difficult situation that lay ahead, he was determined to protect Mu Qingqing with his life.
Ever since the Immortal Golden Dragons were massacred by Xuan Qi, the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors had hated humans to the core.
The Dragon Emperor was the first to speak in fury, his voice as cold as iron, "Do you two humans really think Beast God Valley is such an easy place to enter? The moment you passed through the demon essence restriction, every move you made was within my grasp. If I hadn't been in seclusion, do you think you would still be alive today?"
Mu Qingqing was shocked by his words. So the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors had known they entered Beast God Valley long ago.
It seemed that the demon essence restriction outside Beast God Valley not only isolated humans but could also transmit information.
Damn it, she had miscalculated.
Mu Qingqing was somewhat annoyed. She should have thought of this earlier.
The demon essence restriction was set up by the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors. In front of these two, Xin Ci's Immortal Golden Dragon blood within him was not enough to conceal his human aura.
At this moment, the Phoenix Emperor also said with a grim expression, "More than fifty years ago, the Dragon Emperor and I made a blood oath with the Holy Lords of your five human Holy Lands, forbidding humans from setting foot in Beast God Valley. Yet you two humans have ignored this blood oath! Then be prepared to pay the price with your lives!"
With that said, the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors cast sharp glances at Mu Qingqing and Xin Ci. The peak Emperor-level demon essence pressure swept towards them like a tidal wave.
Under this powerful pressure, Xin Ci felt his breathing become difficult, and his body was suppressed, unable to stand straight. Large beads of sweat rolled down his cheeks.
This was the power of peak Emperor-level, the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors!
Such astonishing might was no less than Xuan Qi's, and even a bit stronger.
He was currently only a Four-Star Saint Emperor and could not withstand the oppressive aura of the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors.
Suddenly, Xin Ci felt the pressure on his body vanish instantly, as if a massive stone had been removed from him.
He slightly turned his eyes to the side and understood why. Mu Qingqing was using her true essence to shield him, allowing him to stand under the oppressive aura of the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors.
Xin Ci's heart warmed. He looked at Mu Qingqing beside him with complex emotions in his eyes.
After cultivating for so long, even though he had become a Saint Emperor, Mu Qingqing was still by his side, protecting him and facing strong enemies together.
However, his own strength could rarely help Mu Qingqing. Xin Ci clenched his fist.
Thinking of how Mu Qingqing had accompanied him all this way without reservation, he vowed to improve his strength until he could protect Mu Qingqing and repay her.
As Mu Qingqing was a Two-Star Great Emperor, her situation was not as dire as Xin Ci's.
But in the face of the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors' powerful demon essence, all she could do was ensure that she and Xin Ci were not affected by the pressure. If it truly came to a fight with the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors, even she would surely lose.
In an instant, Mu Qingqing's eyes flashed with inspiration, as if she had realized something. A smile appeared on her lips, and her gaze towards the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors was no longer flustered.
"Senior Dragon and Phoenix Twin Emperors, if you truly intended to kill us, you could have easily done so earlier at the divine tree altar."
