As Xu Zii stepped into the void, ascending step by step, the entire sea area fell silent.
Even the surging waves around were suppressed and gradually cald down.
"This, this," the people on the sailing ship stamred, unable to speak upon witnessing this scene.
"He’s beco stronger," the one-ard elder murmured with narrowed eyes.
When he had encountered Xu Zii before, he was still in the Saint Vein Realm. He hadn’t expected that Xu Zii had already stepped into the Divine Vein.
The one-ard elder couldn’t help but feel a chill, thinking about how young he was.
Could it really be the posture of a Great Emperor? He sowhat dared not to continue his thoughts.
Chen Tianyi’s gaze flickered uncertainly, staring at Xu Zii for a long ti without speaking.
And the purple-dressed lady, Ning Caidie, was also murmuring to herself, "If he’s so powerful, why didn’t he save us before?"
"Miss, he...," the maid Ying hesitated to speak further at her side.
......
Xu Zii held the Tyrant Shadow with Blade Qi spreading out around him like a prison, his gaze empty as he looked at the Yu Beast before him.
The Azure Cloud Eighth Transformation was directly activated, and strands of faint green Spiritual Energy rose slowly behind him.
At the mont the muffled sound began, his back was shrouded in a green mist, and layers of green stone steps were laid out.
Under the cover of the mist, the green stones spread upwards, aiming to compete with the heavens in height.
Xu Zii’s aura also surged in an instant.
When the Creation Force around him filled the air, Xu Zii paused mid-step—a re blink of an eye did not pass.
He had already appeared in front of the Yu Beast.
The Tyrant Shadow in his hand was raised high, endless Spiritual Energy accompanying Wu Geng’s Blade Intent converging in the sky.
With a "boom"!
As the Curved Blade rapidly descended, the Yu Beast felt as if a great terror was upon it.
Its whole body was so suppressed that it was sluggish, hurriedly stretching out its wings to block.
"Puff!"
Inky black blood spurted out in the sky as the Curved Blade descended, unstoppable.
The wings that blocked out the sun were directly severed, accompanied by a painful roar from the Yu Beast.
"Why bother, I didn’t want to kill you in the first place."
Xu Zii shook his head slightly, saying, "I wanted to give your race a chance to continue. What a pity, you don’t cherish it!"
"So it’s permissible for you humans to kill us Yu Beasts, but not for us to kill you?" The Yu Beast sneered disdainfully.
It said, "What’s the rationale behind that?"
"The grievances between us go back a very long ti, to the dark ages of the Endless Heaven Sea — do you know of it?"
The one-ard elder interjected, "This isn’t at all about who is right and who is wrong."
"I know, whoever has the biggest fist has the reason, right?" the Yu Beast retorted with a heavy snort.
It spoke indifferently, "Anyway, I am captured by you now. Kill or maim as you will."
"Since you are not afraid of dying, then I might as well torture you slowly," Xu Zii said lightly, with a faint smile.
"Can’t you take a joke?"
The Yu Beast was taken aback for a mont, then quickly replied, "Didn’t you just say you were in a hurry to get ho?
Give a quick death, and you can go ho earlier."
Xu Zii shook his head slightly and, looking at the one-ard elder, said, "You all go ahead, I want to have a talk with it alone."
"Young Master, this Yu Beast cannot be let go," the one-ard elder advised from the side.
"If it escapes and grows to bring disaster to the sea areas later, what then?"
"I know, you all go ahead," Xu Zii said indifferently.
The one-ard elder could only nod in agreent.
Watching the sailing ship’s direction as it disappeared into the mist.

"What are you trying to do?" the Yu Beast asked warily.
"Want to roll with ?" Xu Zii said.
"Roll with you?" The Yu Beast was sowhat surprised.
"Myriad Demons Tribe!"
...
An endless sea whipped up a sky-full of storm, with Xu Zii lying on the back of the Yu Beast.
The Yu Beast was very fast, almost at ho in this sea domain, reaching the docks of the Eastern Continent in just about fifteen minutes.
After Xu Zii got onto the dock, the True Fate World appeared and took the Yu Beast into the territory of the Myriad Demons Tribe.
As for the rest, Chaos would manage it.
Having traveled relentlessly without a break, Xu Zii didn’t plan on resting now.
The journey was hastened by the Dark Heaven Tiger, and he enjoyed the ease of the ride.
Erging from Dragon City in the Eastern Continent, Xu Zii headed toward the core area of the Eastern Continent.
Traveling day and night, after roughly half a month, Xu Zii finally arrived at the core of the Eastern Continent.
The sky had gradually darkened, and the city not far away looked brightly lit, indeed a large city.
Xu Zii planned to rest here for the night.
As he approached the city, Xu Zii discovered the unusual aspects of this city.
The city walls were blood-red due to the bricks and tiles being made of that color.
Two skull patterns were engraved on the city gates.
Xu Zii looked up to see three large characters written on the wall: "Blood Slaughter City."
"It seems that I have arrived in the territory governed by the Blood Nether Holy Sect," Xu Zii said with a light chuckle.
The Blood Nether Holy Sect, as one of the Imperial Rule Immortal Sects of the Eastern Continent, was famous for being brutal and combative due to its Ancestor, the Blood Nether Emperor.
He established the Immortal Gate here, and it has been in existence for over ten thousand years.
Blood Slaughter City isn’t an exceptionally ancient or famous city, but it is one of the few large cities within this territory.
Also, most disciples of the Blood Nether Holy Sect are known to be exceedingly cruel, earning the sect the reputation of being the Immortal Gate most resembling a demonic sect.
...
When Xu Zii entered the city, he was stopped and questioned by the guards on both sides.
He gave brief answers and then entered the city.
The city was quite large, and even at night, the main streets of the city were still very lively.
However, Xu Zii could still feel that beneath the bustling façade of the city, the atmosphere seed sowhat tense.
Guards searched and patrolled the streets frequently, making it easy to notice that sothing was amiss.
Xu Zii found an inn; the place wasn’t very crowded.
Since it was late, the shopkeeper had already retired for the night, leaving only the young lad who was yawning and resting his head on the table.
Seeing Xu Zii enter, the lad quickly stood up and, with a smile, said, "Sir, you’re looking to stay the night, right?"
"Staying the night, is there anything to eat?" Xu Zii asked.
"I’m very sorry, but the cooks have all gone to rest," the lad replied apologetically.
"Then just get a good room, and also bring a jar of fine wine," said Xu Zii as he sat down at a table nearby.
After drinking a cup of wine, Xu Zii took a deep breath and looked at the young lad to ask,
"Lad, let ask you, has sothing happened in Blood Slaughter City recently?"
"Sir, you must be new here," the lad joined in with interest, smiling as he said,
"Few days ago, the City Lord’s son was killed, and now there’s a city-wide manhunt for the assassin."
"No wonder," said Xu Zii, nodding slightly.
As Xu Zii was drinking, suddenly, the door of the inn was pushed open.
