Destined Martial God

Both of his hands stopped tearing the air apart, and lowered his head to look at the Divine Black Tortoise standing at the edge of the mountain range.    

Whether it was the intense conflict he had with the Azure Dragon Family and the White Tiger Family, or the act of the Vermillion Bird stealing the Flaming Light Array Flag while he was undergoing his tribulation, or the fact that it was cheated by the Black Tortoise Clan's formation master when sealing the Ancient God and Demon Clan, his heart was filled with deep hostility and fear towards the Four Great Guardian Family s.    

Therefore, in a situation where he did not have the absolute advantage, he did not want to have too much contact with the Guardian Family, and thus did not want to bother with his own Divine Black Tortoise.    

Seeing Yu Haoran's slight frown, the Divine Black Tortoise that was able to guess his thoughts regarding the Guardian Family, tried its best to show its good will. At the same time, it soared into the air and flew in front of Yu Haoran, then hugged its claws and greeted him.    

"Xuan Qiong has seen too many Formation Emperors!"    

"Junior greets Senior Xuan Qiong!"    

Originally, according to Yu Haoran's narrow-minded nature, since he was filled with deep hostility and fear towards the Four Great Guardian Family s in his heart, then he would definitely not give them any face at all.    

Therefore, when he initially wanted to mock and ridicule Divine Black Tortoise, Tower Spirit in his sea of consciousness suddenly asked him to treat them politely.    

The reason Tower Spirit gave him respect was that while he was doing his best to deal with the lightning tribulation that came from destroying the Soul Severing Divine Lightning, not only did the Divine Black Tortoise not take the opportunity to add insult to injury, it had also prevented the Azure Dragon, White Tiger and Vermillion Bird from doing so multiple times.    

Yu Haoran secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he returned the courtesy with his status as a junior, but at the same time, he hurriedly asked with a smile.    

"Emperor Yu, can we chat in private for a while?"    

"Senior Xuan Qiong, this is my sister, this is my brother, they are not outsiders!"    

Although he did not categorically reject Xuan Qiong's request, through the introductions of Yu Siqi and the Scarlet Beast, Yu Haoran had already expressed his own attitude towards it.    

"Alright then!"    

Seeing that Yu Haoran was unwilling to avoid Yu Siqi and the Scarlet Beast, Xuan Qiong did not continue to persevere and nod his head.    

After that, he carefully took out a milky white stone the size of a goose egg that was as big as his heart from within the independent space he opened himself, and gave it to Yu Haoran with a smile.    

"To an array emperor, this milky white stone is called the Destiny Stone. It is a top treasure that can greatly increase one's perception and potential. It can be considered a gift for the first time that we have met."    

As the saying goes, "If you don't have anything to offer, then please take care of it."    

Putting aside the difficult to reconcile grudges that existed between him and the Four Great Guardian Family s, since they had just met and they had already given each other such a precious gift, how could Yu Haoran not be wary of them? Thus, he did not extend his hand to receive the creamy white rock in front of him.    

As for the Tower Spirit in his sea of consciousness, when he saw the heart-like white stone in Xuan Qiong's hand, his eyes revealed a puzzled expression.    

It was because he faintly felt that the creamy white rock in front of him was not like the Destiny Stone that Xuan Qiong had mentioned earlier, but was instead like a legendary treasure. It was a special treasure which had tens of thousands of links to the Law of Fate.    

"To the Formation Emperor, this Heaven's Secret Stone is a gift from me to you, rather, it is a apology from my Black Tortoise Family."    

Although Yu Haoran's refusal to extend his hand and receive the Destiny Stone made a trace of disappointment flash across his eyes, he was not too surprised in his heart.    

After all, all of the unpleasant things that had happened in the past had caused Yu Haoran to maintain a deep enmity towards the Guardian Family.    

With the other party's cautious personality, how could he easily accept such a precious gift from him?    

However, the Destiny Stone was not only a bargaining chip he used to assuage the enmity between them, but also an important method he used to test out the conjecture in his mind.    

Therefore, in order for Yu Haoran to willingly extend his hand and receive the Heaven's Secret Stone, Xuan Qiong could only use the method of selling off the Guardian Family's interests to eliminate the enmity in the other party's heart.    

"Emperor of the Formation, I wonder if you still remember how you and four of the Guardian Family's SemiGod Elders sealed the Ancient God and Demon Clans together?" After putting away the kind smile on his face, Xuan Qiong asked with a serious expression.    

"Quite!" Yu Haoran nodded and replied.    

"I'm truly sorry, Emperor of the Formation!"    

Receiving Yu Haoran's nod in reply, Xuan Qiong explained with a guilt-filled tone.    

"Back then when we once again sealed the two races of the ancient gods and demons, our Guardian Family's four elders of the SemiGod Realm had secretly set up some secret methods that could possibly harm you and your relatives."    

"A self-destructing array formation at the core of the four array flags!" When Yu Haoran took the initiative to mention the insidious methods the Guardian Family had secretly set up to seal the ancient gods and devils, he immediately pointed at them with a dark expression.    

"You, you, you already know about it!" Yu Haoran's accurate testimony caused his mind to be struck by the violent impact. Unable to control himself, he retreated seven steps, and with a look of shock, he shouted out.    

"That's right!"    

When he saw Xuan Qiong, whose mind had suffered a strong shock, had a confused look in his eyes. An idea immediately flashed through his mind, not only did Yu Haoran immediately nod in confirmation, he even further explained his understanding of the Guardian Family's methods.    

"Not only do I know of the self-destructing array formations concealed within the four formation flags, I can even calculate from the details of the self-destructing array formations. In at most two months, the self-destructing array formations will completely destroy the sun, moon and stars array formation used to seal them by detonating the four formation flags. The ancient gods and devils will once again descend upon the Profound Sky Continent."    

Yu Haoran explained to his family's secret methods in more detail., whose mind had suffered an even stronger shock, not only started to tremble, he also started to lose focus.    

Taking this chance, Yu Haoran suddenly shouted.    

"Xuan Qiong, why did you give Yu Haoran the precious Heaven's Secret Stone?"    

Facing Yu Haoran's loud question, whose mind was in a trance, Xuan Qiong answered instinctively.    

"I want to resolve the hatred accumulated between Yu Haoran and the Black Tortoise Family through the Heavenly Mystery Stone that I gifted them. At the same time, I also want to verify a conjecture that I have come up with."    

Xuan Qiong instinctively replied truthfully. At the same time, a sliver of suspicion surfaced in his eyes, he continued to ask loudly.    

"Xuan Qiong, what kind of deduction do you want to verify?"    

"I suspect that Yu Haoran might be the real Yu Haoran!"    

As a Divine Beast at the peak of the sixth level of the Divine Realm, as well as a top Ranker who was proficient in surgical approach, his valiant mental state cultivation allowed Xuan Qiong to quickly wake up from his dazed state and promptly retract his sight.
