The Strongest Mythical Emperor

Chapter 36 - 36 36 Emperor Guan

?36: Chapter 36 Emperor Guan 36: Chapter 36 Emperor Guan “Ding!

Initiating random summoning of a God and Demon!”

“Ding!

Congratulations to the host for summoning Marshal Guan, one of the Four Great Marshals!”

“Guan Yu (Emperor Guan), from Taoist legends.”

“Race: Human Clan!”

“Cultivation: Ninth Layer of the Transforming Void Realm!”

“Cultivation methods: Saintly Martial Energy!

Azure Dragon God-Cutting Saber!

Horse Cutting Saber!”

“Divine Power: Exorcising Phoenix Eyes!”

“Mount: Red Rabbit Divine Horse!”

“Loyalty: 85 (Full Value 100)!”

What the?

Guan Yu?

The Guan Yu who warmed wine to slay Hua Xiong, and who passed through five barriers and cut down six generals?

Qin Jun was dumbfounded, his brain struggling to keep up.

He quickly asked, “Is Guan Yu also an immortal?”

“Indeed, after being deified in the people’s minds through the propagation of various adaptations and legends like ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms,’ Guan Yu has been known as the Martial Saint and Emperor Guan.

The system has summoned the Guan Yu who is among the Four Great Marshals: Ma, Zhao, Wen, and Guan.”

“This Guan Yu is Marshal Guan, who guards one of the four great heavenly gates in the celestial court.

In order to properly oversee the South Heavenly Gate, the Jade Emperor strictly selects the marshals for their formidable strength and their deterring appearance, and Guan Yu meets these criteria precisely.

There are various versions of the legend among the people, but the tales of Ma, Zhao, Wen, and Guan are the most widespread, and this system’s setting is also based on those Four Great Marshals!”

Qin Jun listened, dumbstruck.

Guan Yu really had become a god, and moreover, he was the marshal guarding the South Heavenly Gate.

He couldn’t help but associate this with the imagery from ‘Journey to the West,’ yet the general who guarded the South Heavenly Gate in the story had too bit of a walk-on role, barely making an impression.

However, seeing that Guan Yu was only at the ninth layer of the Transforming Void Realm, he felt relieved again, as such strength indeed belonged to a minor role in front of Sun Wukong.

Since the memories of the summoned gods and demons would be reset by the system anyway, he didn’t bother to fuss over it further.

“Second Master Guan, oh Second Master Guan, I hope you won’t let me down,” Qin Jun lamented while sitting on his bed.

There were so many heroes during the Three Kingdoms period, and Guan Yu’s posthumous achievements definitely ranked at the top.

There’s no telling how many temples to the Martial Saint were in the people’s hearts, while figures like Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Lv Bu were not deified to the same extent as Guan Yu.

Thinking of Guan Yu’s exploits in ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms,’ Qin Jun’s eyes lit up.

Guan Yu was definitely the best candidate for a showdown between experts!

The mythological version of Guan Yu must have off-the-charts combat power!

Moreover, Guan Yu was the first from the Human Clan that he had summoned.

Besides, Guan Yu was originally a general; perhaps he could get noticed by the emperor during the upcoming confrontation between the two kingdoms and join the army camp.

The more Qin Jun thought about it, the more excited he became, almost wishing he could meet Guan Yu immediately.

However, the god or demon summoned by the mythical system would appear within a day, so he couldn’t rush it.

…

Early the next morning, a woman wearing green clothes with a veil of green gauze on her face descended from the second floor of the Cliff Inn, her figure delicate and charming, with her white, creamy hands lightly clutched at her waist, followed by a pretty and cute maidservant, who looked to be around fourteen or fifteen years old.

As soon as the two women appeared, all the guests in the lobby began to buzz with conversation.

“It’s that woman again, who only comes downstairs every three days.

She’s so mysterious!”

“She has been here for half a month, and even though some people have tried to strike up a conversation, they ended up being struck out of the Cliff Inn with just a palm of her hand.”

“Sss— that strong?”

“What’s most important is that the innkeeper turns a blind eye, as if he hasn’t seen anything.”

“It is said that this woman doesn’t seem to be from the Qianyue Kingdom,”

In the face of the guests’ discussions, the woman in green remained indifferent, a pair of bright eyes cold as water, with a spot of cinnabar between her eyebrows that was hard to notice unless looked at closely.

The maid did not sit down but instead stood beside her and asked prettily, “Miss, if you need anything, I’ll go buy it for you.”

“No need, sit down.

The capital has not been very peaceful recently,” the woman in green shook her head and said.

She glanced over all the guests on the first floor and then withdrew her gaze, disappointed.

The waiter hurried over, and while the maid ordered for the woman in green, the woman sipped her tea absentmindedly, her thoughts unknown.

Everything returned to calm.

Although the rest of the cultivators were curious about the woman in green, they did not dare to stare at her continuously because the woman’s cultivation was profound and her origins a mystery.

When the waiter brought the dishes, Cliff Inn welcomed a new guest—Qin Yu.

At that moment, Qin Yu had changed into a blue robe, leisurely handling a folding fan, appearing every bit the dashing young master, followed by the King of Blood Saber who had also donned black clothes.

The two of them were dressed in disguise, clearly up to some mischief.

As they entered, the guests turned their heads to look, their gazes primarily focusing on the King of Blood Saber.

This man’s murderous aura was so intense that just his entrance sent shivers down one’s spine.

Even the woman in green could not help but turn to look.

Her eyes lingered on the King of Blood Saber for a moment before moving away, finally resting on Qin Yu and brightening as she thought to herself, “To reach the ninth level of the energy refining realm at such a young age indeed makes him a genius.”

“Innkeeper, do you have a guest named Yan Mobei?” Qin Yu approached the counter and asked with a smile.

The innkeeper first cast a deep glance at the King of Blood Saber, then shook his head and said, “Cliff Inn has its own rules; we can’t disclose any guest’s information, so I don’t know whether there is such a person.”

“Hmph!”

The King of Blood Saber snorted coldly, and his aura of the Foundation Establishment realm exploded, instantly freezing the atmosphere in the hall.

The complexions of many guests changed, but some faces revealed a mocking expression.

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the corner attendants who then began to approach the King of Blood Saber.

However, the innkeeper quickly signaled with his eyes, making the attendants stop in their tracks.

“Fifth Prince, do you really think you can bully Cliff Inn with a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator by your side?” the innkeeper said coldly.

Previously, although conflicts had occurred in the inn, he had pretended not to see them, as long as they did not fight inside the inn.

Qin Jun and the woman in green could kill their opponents in a second, and he couldn’t be bothered to intervene.

But the King of Blood Saber’s actions were undoubtedly challenging the authority of Cliff Inn.

Qin Yu’s pupils constricted, then he waved his hand and said with a smile, “Do not be rude!”

The King of Blood Saber nodded and withdrew his aura.

At the same time, his gaze quietly swept over the corners, feeling several murderous intents attacking him in that instant, chilling him to the bone.

“What is the origin of this Cliff Inn…” the King of Blood Saber privately marveled in alarm.

The other guests looked at each other in dismay, not expecting that this young master was the current Fifth Prince.

In the capital, who didn’t know Qin Yu was the prince most likely to become the Crown Prince?

Only the woman in green shook her head, sighing softly, “I thought he was a genius, but it turns out he’s a prince.”

This statement had great ambiguity, and the nearby guests understood what she meant—being a prince, he had access to a lot of resources, so the title of genius did not truly fit.

Qin Yu’s corner of the mouth twitched; he turned instinctively to look at the woman in green, only to see her back.

“Innkeeper, could you see to my beloved steed?”

A resounding voice suddenly came from the entrance, like a thunderclap, the more lightly cultivated even feeling their eardrums ache.

All eyes turned at once to see a burly man in green walk in.

He stood nine feet tall, with a two-foot-long beard, phoenix eyes, silkworm eyebrows, a face as red as a date, and lips like smeared vermilion, resembling an iron tower, exuding a domineering presence that seemed to defy the world.

The newcomer was none other than Emperor Guan—Guan Yu—summoned by Qin Jun!
