Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 217 The Black Emperor's Face

"Your Majesty, the person has been brought."

The ancient king spoke, and facing that so-called Holy Venerable, he lowered his posture to a very low level, almost to the point of being in the dust.

The white-haired girl raised her head and looked at Wang Teng and the others, her gaze as calm as a deep pool, without any ripples.

She looked to be only a teenager, even younger than Wang Teng, with a youthful face. However, no one dared to underestimate her because of her appearance, as her aura was far too powerful, surpassing even that of the ancient clan expert who had been guiding them!

"A true sage of antiquity!" the Black Emperor transmitted his voice with a solemn expression.

When he heard of the ancient sages, he already had a guess in his mind, but when he actually saw an awakened ancient sage, he couldn't help but marvel and sigh.

These are ancient sages!
The Black Emperor had recently traveled to other parts of the Northern Region, including several relatively large cities.

In those places, the Black Emperor also gained some understanding of the present-day Eastern Wilderness.

In the present-day Eastern Wilderness, the strongest people who are openly active are the Great Powers. Even the Kings are regarded as the foundation by those ancient holy lands and aristocratic families. As for the existence of ancient sages, there are very few rumors about them.

To put it bluntly, this white-haired girl in front of us, who looks quite young, would be a devastating blow to other forces if she were to actually be born and venture into the outside world.

Fortunately, she has not yet broken through the divine source.

This means that she has no plans to be born yet.

"Are you the ancient princess of the Qilin clan?" the white-haired female saint asked in a clear voice, speaking in the purest ancient language.

"Yes, that's me." Wang Erya nodded, her voice soft and sweet.

Their conversation seemed like an older sister chatting with a younger girl, but both of them were from very unusual backgrounds.

When the ancient races revive in the future, either of these two individuals could command many ancient races with a single order.

"Since you are an ancient princess of the Qilin clan, why are you walking with lowly humans? There's even a dog with you. What you're doing is contrary to your status," the white-haired saintess said calmly.

When Hei Huang first heard her words, he was amused and watching the show. But as he listened, he felt something was off. Why was she cursing him?

"Hey, hey, hey, this ancient saint, please show me some respect. I know your identity is extraordinary, but if we're really comparing background and origins, I'm afraid you're not as good as me!" Black Emperor said with a sullen face and displeasure.

"What are you? I'm talking to the ancient princess, how dare you interrupt?" The white-haired saintess looked at the black emperor, her calm tone carrying a hint of disdain.

"Hey, look at my temper! Open your eyes wide and see what my background is!" The Black Emperor was also angry and spoke angrily.

He spat out a small bell from his mouth, which spun in mid-air before landing on the Black Emperor's head and slowly rotating above it.

The small bell emitted a pale yellow light, which was not dazzling and its aura was not particularly imposing. However, when the white-haired female saint saw the small bell, her expression changed visibly.

"It's you!" the white-haired female saint said, her voice finally showing a slight fluctuation.

"Now you can show me some respect, right?" Black Emperor sneered.

If you don't reveal your trump card, others won't take you for a strong player!

"I'm sorry, but if it were you, you would certainly earn our respect!" the white-haired female saint said, her attitude towards the Black Emperor changing.

The ancient clan king, who had been watching quietly from the side, suddenly realized why this guy looked familiar! Wasn't this the big black dog that used to roam the mountains all day?

Back then, this big black dog was quite normal. When it walked around, it would walk on all fours like a proper dog. But after not seeing it for a while, this big black dog looks abnormal.

It had actually started walking upright like humans. No wonder he hadn't recognized it at first; it just looked familiar. Now, as the big black dog took out the small bell that it used to threaten the ancient tribe from time to time, he finally realized who it was.

But even if you realize it and recognize the other person, there's nothing you can do.

The big black dog's origins are indeed very special, and even the saints of their clan need to take it seriously.

"Alright, now you can say that sentence again, but remember to remove the title of 'Emperor'!" the Black Emperor said angrily.

Yes, what angered him was that this guy was disrespectful to him!

Disrespecting him is definitely unacceptable, but disrespecting others is fine!

The white-haired saintess clearly hadn't expected the Black Emperor to speak like that.

She thought the Black Emperor was standing up for someone else because of something else.

However, with the Black Emperor's intervention, the atmosphere from before completely vanished, and the white-haired female saint's attempt to say something now felt somewhat inappropriate.

"Ahead lies the place where the ancient emperor once laid out his plans. Many powerful beings slumber within. If you continue to venture deeper, you may encounter a great crisis. For the sake of the Qilin Ancient Empress, I'm giving you a heads-up: it's not too late to turn back now. My people have already awakened. If they see you, they won't be as easy to talk to as they are to me."

The white-haired female saint spoke.

Originally, she was aggressive, wanting to use her status as an ancient saint to suppress the Qilin Ancient Princess and make her lead the others away, not to go any further.

But since that big black dog is also here, we need to change our plans and strategies.

But even if they were allowed to go deeper, it wouldn't have any impact, because there are even stronger beings inside.

She was not the only saint among the ancient tribes that slumbered here.

“I know what I’m doing,” Wang Erya said.

Wang Teng was a little disappointed; he was still waiting for the scenes that everyone would enjoy.

In the normal course of events, it shouldn't have been this female ancient saint who was arrogant and dismissive, telling them to leave immediately and even spouting wild words. In the end, Wang Teng had no choice but to take action to suppress her, using his cultivation at the Four Extremes Secret Realm to forcibly suppress an ancient saint, adding a significant touch to his invincible demeanor.

As a result of Black King's unreasonable arguing, the matter was temporarily brought to a close.

The white-haired female saint was unusually understanding at this moment, and actually let them leave.

"Then I won't ramble on any longer. Please convey my regards to the Ancient Emperor Qilin on my behalf in the future," the white-haired female saint said.

She rode away on her divine power, clearing the way for Wang Teng and the others to continue their journey.

The ancient king did not leave at this moment. He continued to lead the group. This time he was much more obedient and led Wang Teng and the others around the other places where the ancient clans were sleeping.
