"No need, this is enough," Xu Zii pondered for a mont.
He said to Situ Yunfei, "You watch him, I’ll step out for a bit."
Situ Yunfei nodded slightly.
Walking out from the underground passage, the sky outside had already darkened.
Aside from the night patrol, most of the servants of the City Lord Mansion had already returned to their rooms to rest.
Only a few rooms were sporadically lit.
The air grew colder, and tonight’s sky was cloudless and starless—shrouded in darkness.
Xu Zii’s figure was hidden within the dark, resembling a solitary grim reaper, vanishing step by step into the night.
At this mont, in the room of Lu Yangui, the City Lord of the City of Fearlessness.
He sat in a chair, holding an object resembling a twister in his hand.
He observed the item carefully, his intuition telling him that it surely concealed a great secret.
But he could not grasp the key to it.
A gust of wind blew through, blowing open the windows with a "clang."
Lu Yangui turned his head with a slight frown.
He placed the twister-like object into his Storage Ring and then stood up to close the window.
He looked outside, finding the dark and profound night exceptionally silent.
Just as he closed the window and turned around.
His gaze suddenly sharpened.
He noticed that a young man had appeared beside the table in the room, seemingly out of nowhere.
The young man sat on a chair, casually sipping tea from the table.
"Who are you?" Lu Yangui asked indifferently.
He didn’t yell or panic.
In this mansion, he was the strongest.
If he couldn’t defeat his adversary, calling for help would be futile.
The fact that his opponent had appeared behind him without his noticing
was proof of the other’s strength.
Not inferior to his own, or perhaps even stronger.
"You must know why I am here," Xu Zii stated blandly.
"It seems many covet this object," Lu Yangui said with a faint smile.
"Now I am even more certain that it hides a great secret."
"Without the strength, possessing it will only lead to your demise," Xu Zii stood up, his voice detached.
"Hand it over, you are not worthy of it."
"I wonder if the Slaughter Tribe behind is worthy?" Lu Yangui sneered.
Then, his right hand clenched as if crushing sothing.
"You should regret not taking the chance to kill with a single blow when I was off guard."
Lu Yangui chuckled lightly.
As his words fell, the Spiritual Energy in the sky began to surge and turn violent instantly.
Boundless Spiritual Energy was gathering.
The surrounding air crackled under the pressure.
Space itself was collapsing, and near Lu Yangui,
a black hole slowly ford.
The black hole spun counterclockwise, releasing a trendous suppressive force from one end.
It was the aura of the Divine Vein Realm.
Xu Zii could feel it.
Then, the fog within the black hole began to dissipate, and Xu Zii saw the scene inside.
It was a palace ford within a Sea of Blood.
Countless people stood on either side of the palace.
Xu Zii couldn’t see their faces.
At the topmost position, facing away, stood another person.
His back to Xu Zii, his face was also indiscernible.
He wore a wide Blood Robe.
Like a cape, the Blood Robe draped down from his back.
It fell to the ground, trailing at length!
Although he was turned away from the crowd, the intensely strong aura emanating from him suppressed everyone’s breath.
He naturally carried the deanor of a king.
"Long ago, I had already reported the matter of the inheritance to my clan," Lu Yangui said with a cold smile.
"I knew it would be difficult for to keep the inheritance safe with my own strength.
Who would have thought that soone would actually co to steal it!"
"Clan Leader," Lu Yangui respectfully bowed in the direction of the black hole and greeted.
"Reveal the secret of this inheritance, and I will spare your life," the person inside the black hole commanded authoritatively.
"How utterly dull. I had no intention of making enemies with the Slaughter Tribe," Xu Zii said, shaking her head slightly with a faint smile.
"Divine Vein Realm aside, even if your true body were to descend here, I would not take you seriously.
Let alone just an insignificant projection avatar."
"You dare offend our Slaughter Tribe’s Clan Leader," Lu Yangui roared from the side.
"Noisy," Xu Zii coldly huffed.
Her eyes shone with sharpness, and an aura of Holy Power surrounded her.
Endless Creation Force mixed with Spiritual Energy echoed around her.
The Tyrant Shadow in her hand fell directly as she executed the Way of Inquiry’s Annihilation Void.
The space around her shattered completely.
Infinite might descended from the skies with a booming thunder.
Lu Yangui tried to flee, but he was imdiately suppressed by Xu Zii’s Holy Power on the spot.
When that slash fell, although Lu Yangui desperately tried to block,
he was still struck with a severe injury in one blow.
He fell to the ground coughing up blood, unable even to struggle.
This was because Xu Zii had not yet used her full strength.
"How audacious, to kill a man of Lu Kingdom before ," the person within the black hole humphed coldly.
At the fall of this cold snort, the space all around cracked open.
Echoing in the surroundings, it lingered without dissipating.
Imdiately after was a giant hand, bearing the overwhelming Divine Might as it descended from the heavens.
To the beholder, the hand seed as though it had risen from the Sea of Blood.
Its surroundings reflected illusions of countless realms.
Mountains of bones, blood-stained winds, and slaughters from the beginning to the end.
As the giant hand was about to fall, a beast’s roar suddenly sounded from the side.
The mont the roar sounded, the giant hand vanished into thin air.
Then a beast’s claw bearing sheer Immortal Might swept across,
blasting the black hole in midair with one strike.
Gone without a trace!
Lu Yangui, grievously wounded on the ground, watched the scene in stunned silence.
The trendous body of Chaos stood beside Xu Zii, its bell-like eyes staring intently at him.
Just now, with a casual swing of its fist, the Monster Beast shattered the Divine Vein Realm Clan Leader’s projection avatar.
Though he did not know what kind of existence the Monster Beast was, Lu Yangui realized that he had encountered significant trouble this ti.
...
anwhile, tens of thousands of miles away, within the Sea of Blood.
A blood-red palace stood serenely amidst the blood sea.
Inside the palace, nearly all mbers of the Slaughter Tribe had gathered.
The palace was deathly silent at this mont.
The man in the Blood Robe at the head of the palace remained silent for a long ti without speaking.
Sowhere below, soone asked curiously, "Clan Leader, what was that just now?"
"Soone shattered my projection avatar," the man in the Blood Robe said indifferently.
His right hand trembled slightly, but he concealed it well.
None of the people below noticed.
There were so things he hadn’t ntioned to those below.
Just at the mont when the black hole was shattered,
he felt an extrely strong Monster Might.
So powerful it could have killed him in an instant.
