Chapter 1169: The Retired Emperor

The elder, known as Li Jiang, had been the commander of the Imperial Guard Army of the royal family and had always stayed by the side of the elder emperor of the Huangluo Clan.

A hundred years ago, as the elder emperor went into seclusion, Li Jiang followed and served as protector. The place they chose for the seclusion was the cave Huangluo Junlin had just emerged from.

The elder emperor's seclusion aimed to break through to the Saint Realm, a matter of utmost importance.

However, just as he was on the verge of the breakthrough, the elder emperor suddenly felt his soul trembling. A Black Mist Serpent appeared, intending to devour his soul and take over his body.

The elder emperor resisted fiercely, and Li Jiang also used his Soul Power to assist the elder emperor.

But the Black Mist Serpent was simply too strong, beyond what the two of them could withstand. Just as they were about to falter, Jiang Wuqing appeared.
