This young man in black was precisely Naraku, the infamous Young Lord of the Eight Emperor Clan, known as a good-for-nothing throughout the Luanmo Sea.
Naraku's name itself means 'interminable Hell'.
His name sounds like it should belong to a peerless Prodigy.
But it isn't.
Not only is Naraku not a Prodigy,
He has even carried the stigma of being a good-for-nothing for many years.
One can imagine the ridicule a Young Lord of an Emperor Clan, who cannot Cultivate and is a good-for-nothing, would face.
Even if the Eight Emperor Clan was in decline, it wouldn't be so utterly worthless.
Thus, Naraku, and by extension the entire Eight Emperor Clan, received much criticism and mockery.
But only Naraku himself knew the true reality.
In fact, Naraku was not a good-for-nothing at all.
On the contrary, he was a Genius.
An unprecedented Genius.
Not only was his Cultivation talent exceptionally strong, but he was also born with a powerful evil Qi within his body.
At that time, the entire Eight Emperor Clan decided to train Naraku as a secret weapon.
They also directly gave him the position of Young Lord.
All resources were poured into him.
However, a turning point occurred.
Within the Eight Emperor Clan, an ancient shrine was enshrined.
It was called Yaqi Shrine.
It was used to worship the ancestors of the Eight Emperor Clan.
The origin of the Eight Emperor Clan was an existence so powerful it was unimaginable.
The Yaqi Evil God!
Unlike the Yellow Springs Mother God of the Ise Clan and the Great Black Heaven God of the Black Heaven lineage,
The Yaqi Evil God was too ancient.
There were even few records of him in ancient history.
Only some vague accounts.
Legend has it that he was a natural disaster that came from the end of darkness.
Bringing endless darkness and misfortune to the world.
And the Eight Emperor Clan had a custom.
That is, when their descendants reached a certain age, they would worship before the Yaqi Shrine, begging for the Evil God's blessing.
However, when Naraku performed his worship,
Everyone in the Eight Emperor Clan believed he would receive the Evil God's blessing, thereby further advancing his Cultivation.
The result, however, was this:
A purple light shot out from within the Yaqi Shrine, entering Naraku's body.
Then it Sealed all of his power.
Overnight, Naraku transformed from a Prodigy into an ordinary person.
No, even worse than an ordinary person.
Even if an ordinary person had poor talent, they could at least Cultivate.
However, Naraku couldn't even Cultivate anymore.
And at that time, a voice sounded in his heart.
"When the Six Kings of Destruction appear, the Seal will be lifted."
"At that time, you shall enter the shrine and receive the true baptism of the Evil God."
Only Naraku himself could hear these words.
He didn't tell anyone.
Because telling them would be meaningless; he couldn't Cultivate anymore anyway.
Naraku's reputation as a good-for-nothing remained stuck to him.
But recently,
As one World-Destroying King after another awakened,
Naraku clearly felt the Seal within his body loosening.
Sometimes Naraku even wondered if he was one of the Six Kings of Destruction.
But no matter what, he believed that his Seal would soon be lifted.
Naraku stood with his hands behind his back in front of the Yaqi Shrine.
No one had ever entered the shrine; it was a Forbidden Land of the Eight岐 Emperor Clan.
But Naraku believed that he would soon be able to enter and obtain supreme power.
He was the Child of Destiny of this era!
"Naraku…"
A somewhat aged voice sounded.
"Grandpa."
Naraku turned and saw a white-haired old man, who was his grandfather.
It was also through him that his marriage agreement with Yellow Springs of the Ise Clan came about.
"The wedding day is approaching. Then you will also have a fallback, at least you can live a stable life, and Grandpa will be at ease," the old man said with a smile.
"Don't worry, Grandpa, your grandson won't disappoint you," Naraku took a deep breath.
He hadn't told anyone his secret, not even his closest relatives.
When the Seal is lifted,
He wouldn't need to say much; the world would naturally know how foolish they were!
"But Grandpa, I heard that Yellow Springs doesn't seem very willing?"
Naraku said, with a hint of playful amusement in his tone.
He also understood that no one would be willing to marry a good-for-nothing.
However, if Yellow Springs truly refused, then she would truly be blind.
"Don't worry, this marriage is a sure thing, and the Zhu Jiuyin lineage will also participate," the old man said firmly.
Whoever dared to stop this wedding banquet would be an enemy of the Eight岐 Emperor Clan.
Not to mention offending the Zhu Jiuyin lineage.
The old man believed that no one would be that foolish.
Next, time flowed on.
The Luanmo Sea also gradually became lively.
After all, both the Ise Clan and the Eight岐 Emperor Clan were overlords of the Luanmo Sea.
Although the Eight Emperor Clan was in decline, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.
Not to mention Naraku, the good-for-nothing Young Lord.
Many people came from far and wide, wanting to see this good-for-nothing Young Lord of the Emperor Clan.
Many also came with the attitude of watching a show.
They didn't believe that Yellow Springs, the Heavenly God of the Ise Clan, would willingly marry this good-for-nothing Young Lord.
Unless she was blind.
"Haha, interesting, I will definitely attend this wedding banquet!"
"That's right, it's the annual spectacle! I refuse to believe that the Ise Clan's Heavenly God is truly blind and would fancy that good-for-nothing Young Lord."
"I just wonder if I'll be able to see the world-renowned Kagura?"
"Hiss, she is one of the Six Kings of Destruction; her status is extraordinary. However, I heard that she is with War God."
"War God, huh? I've heard about him too. It's just a pity that we're in the Luanmo Sea and don't have the chance to go to the Ten Great States to admire War God's demeanor."
In the Luanmo Sea, from various islands, warships and flying boats set off, preparing to attend the wedding banquet.
At the same time, on another ancient island,
A group of people also set out in a flying boat.
On the deck of a flying boat stood a man.
The man's left eye was pure black, and his right eye was pure white.
Like night and day, it was very peculiar.
On his skin, there was a layer of fine Dragon scales.
He was a creature from the Zhu Jiuyin lineage.
"My elder brother is in seclusion, comprehending that fragmented page, so he sent me to attend the wedding banquet."
"But with my elder brother's status and position, why would he think highly of that good-for-nothing Young Lord Naraku?"
"And he told me that I must not offend him, but instead foster a good relationship."
This man was named Zhu Huang.
His elder brother was named Zhu Ye.
He himself was an Imperial Son of the Zhu Jiuyin lineage, with extraordinary strength.
And recently, he had gained an even more astonishing identity.
"No matter what, I will still listen to my elder brother. This time, I must help that Young Lord of the Eight岐 Emperor Clan complete the wedding banquet," Zhu Huang thought.
The Zhu Jiuyin lineage's group also rushed to the island where the Ise Clan was located.
Just as the entire Luanmo Sea was surging with activity,
At the border between the Otherworld Ten Great States and the Luanmo Sea,
A man and a woman, two figures, emerged.
The man was slender in white robes, his body shrouded in hazy Chaos. He did not deliberately emit any oppressive Qi, yet he subtly caused the Void Realm to tremble incessantly.
The woman, on the other hand, had a beautiful face and captivating charm, possessing a seductive allure that was both enchanting and alluring.
They were Jun Xiaoyao and Kagura.
As for Xuan Yue, Jun Xiaoyao had sent her back to the War God Academy first.
