Rise of the Legendary Emperor

The red flash tore through the sky as it drew the Life energy from beyond and earth. That kind of aura was exceptionally terrifying.

When that red flash appeared on the edges of the horizon, everyone in the camp noticed it. Immediately, numerous gazes of amazement were cast towards it

"Ooh!"

Under the numerous curious gazes, the red flash broke through the skies at a ferocious speed. As the red flash approached, the crowd was shocked to discover that the red flash was actually an exceedingly handsome giant eagle that was colored entirely in crimson red.

That giant eagle's speed was extremely fast, its wings shook a few times as it appeared in the skies above bringing with it the roars of wind and thunder.

While the giant eagle was slowing down, the crowd's gazes immediately concentrated on the back of the eagle. Clothed in white with his hands behind his back and his long black hair drifting in the wind, he appeared to be very calm and at ease. 

On top of the giant eagle, the youngster in white slightly tilted his head down as his calm as clear water gaze swept over the camp below. He then withdrew his gaze, because there was nothing worthy of his attention in that place.

"Sterling Windfield has arrived!"

As they gazed at the figure in green atop the giant eagle, many people at the campsite immediately cried out joyfully, excitement in their eyes.

"Showoff"

Knight's eyes casually looked at the youngster, who stood atop the giant eagle while looking down at the land. From his gaze alone, Knight could see how this human viewed the people below, or perhaps, it might be a type of disregard.

Of course, he thought because of his cultivation level of Peak Grandmaster, he was above everyone.

Based on that figure, even though he was not as handsome as Don, he was indeed a youngster who could raise the young girls' heartbeat with a smile.

"The eagle below his feet" his stare was locked onto the crimson red giant eagle below. Shortly, his pupils shrunk as he realized the truth.

"That was made by him using Life energy, and is not real, Impressive"

"Young Master, you must not underestimate him, he's abnormally powerful"

Lia whispered into his ears as he nodded.

No matter how powerful he was, compared to Knight who has the equal power of a mid Heavenly level, he's just an ant. He was in a different continent and wearing a different face, so if the youngster or anyone messed with him inside the tomb, he decided to kill them first and ask questions later.

Even if the Empress herself came to the tomb and tried to take the life shard away from him, he would kill her without a second thought because, in his world, Don was the most important person and the only family he got.

A couple of years ago, Don massacred half of the Heavenly sword Palace because they hurt him which resulted in one of the reasons to leave the divine continent. In the process, he lost the love of his life but Don didn't care about it all and saved him. To this day, Knight had never forgotten the sacrifices Don made because of him.

Lia did not see his expression but her gaze was completely fixed on the sky. In the Riester Kingdom, Sterling's influence had practically surpassed some of the nobles in the kingdom. In the hearts of the younger generation like her, he was like a mountain that cannot be moved by the wind.

While the crowd was in awe of Sterling's aura, a burst of hearty thunder-like laughter suddenly rumbled from the horizon. The crowd immediately turned their heads as a golden ray streaked across the skies radiating a formidable aura.

This aura was filled with arrogance, yet, in response to this kind of arrogance, no one dared to be resentful against it.

The golden light broke through the skies, causing the Life Energy to surge, as it finally came to float on the horizon, transforming into a huge golden spear that was a dozen meters long. Atop the spear stood a figure in gold with long hair that draped over his shoulders. 

The crowd started at the figure in gold with envious looks on their faces.

"Richard Moonwin is also here!"

Several people from the House Moonwin stared at the figure atop the huge golden spear in the sky, as joy and pride surfaced on their faces.

"This is going to be hard" Lia watched the huge golden spear in the sky, slightly astonished as she said.

"Who is he?" he asked.

"Young master, there are two exceptional geniuses from House Moonwin. One of them is Richard Moonwin, he's strong but the other one is stronger, he's Richard's elder brother, Greyson Moonwin. One could even say that he's the only competition of Sterling. Over the years, the two have fought several times, but have yet to determine the victor among them." Lia explained.

"Richard's strength should be at the Peak Grandmaster level, but slightly below Sterling. However, the golden spear below his feet is not an ordinary item, it is probably a Legendary item. With the aid of such an item, he would be able to do battle even with a Heavenly level cultivator" someone near Knight discussed this with his friend.

"Legendary item huh?"

Upon hearing these words, Knight remembered the words of Arwen. According to him, a magical item could be divided into three categories, common, rare, legendary and this was the first time he saw a Legendary item outside of Everlight. 

"If this is a big deal, what about the Bow of Arjuna and that weird shield of Don?" he laughed in his heart looking at these people's reaction. 

"Haha, I did not expect you here" In the skies, Sterling's gaze also swept over the huge golden spear below Richard's feet as he softly chuckled and said.

"Why? Did you expect someone else?" Upon hearing this, his eyebrows immediately raised as he laughed 

"This time, my brother is at a crucial point of his closed-door cultivation. If he is here, the treasures from the old tomb will all come to House Moonwin."

" Richard, I've not seen you for a year but you are still as arrogant as before."

Just as Sterling's voice faded, yet another soft chuckle slowly sounded out from the horizon. Soon after, blue light filled the skies, as a rainbow flash swept over from the horizon. In the twinkling of an eye, it appeared in the skies above.

When the blue light filled the skies, the crowd swiftly cast their gazes over, only to find a Griffin which was dozens of meters large, it flapped its wings as it floated in the skies. An extremely formidable aura swept forth from within the bird's body.

A blue-clothed man slightly smiled as he stood atop the Griffin. His face was bewitchingly handsome, such that in terms of looks, even Sterling was inferior. He held a deep blue fan in his hand, as he slowly fanned himself while showing a cool and calm expression on his face. But in Knight's eyes, he looked like more of a pretty girl than a handsome boy.

"That is the prodigy from House Belrich, Milan Belrich"

Before Knight could ask who he, Lia told him his details.

"Another showoff with a fancy bird"

He thought after seeing his Peak Grandmaster level cultivation through the Oracle.

Though these people were all of the younger generations, they were still a couple of years older than him and Don, and yet, they had already surpassed these youngsters in terms of power.

"Milan, to think that a pretty flower-like you would also join in the fun here, heh, and you've even brought your family's Griffin, I'm surprised indeed" Richard chuckled but his chuckle contained a tone of ridicule probably due to Milan's feminine look.

"Says the one who brought the Golden Spear of Moonwin. Sterling has already reached the Peak Grandmaster level and if you are not fully prepared, you will likely be stuck picking up the leftovers hehehe" Milan waved the deep blue fan in his hand and giggled.

"humph"

Richard snorted as he turned to look towards the seal which enveloped the mountain top

 "When are we going to break this seal?"

" no need to rush, we still need to wait for one more person." Sterling casually waved his hand and said.

"Who are we waiting for? Didn't the House Godkind say they are not sending anyone?" Richard frowned as he asked.

"The House Godkind is not sending their own but they've invited an even more formidable person to take part representing them" Lin Langtian chuckled and said.

"Oh? Who? In this whole Elvelon Continent, there should be few people who a guy like you would call formidable." Upon hearing this, Richard quickly turned a little curious.

"brother Sterling is praising me too much. I still have a long way to go in cultivation"

As Richard's voice faded, a lively voice suddenly sounded across the skies. That voice was extremely melodious and sweet and seemed to contain special charm. Immediately, an overwhelmed look appeared in the eyes of several people below.

Slowly lifting his head, he saw a red light sweep across the skies from a distance away before finally transforming into a red lotus. On top of the red lotus, was a stunningly curvy figure. Although a veil like Lia's covered her face, those sharp stunning eyes indicated the beauty behind the veil.

"A Heavenly level mage"

The Oracle let him know the cultivation level of this person and he was somewhat surprised to see a heavenly level mage unlike Lia guessed that there won't be a Heavenly level mage coming.

"Welcome to the Riester Kingdom, Miss Loretta Blackwood"
