Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled Chapter 298 - 296: The Stubborn First Vermilion Bird Emperor

Just like back when it was over the Great Li Imperial Capital, faint white clouds began gathering in the sky.

Within them swirled traces of green breath, making people feel very uneasy.

Inside the Vermilion Bird Imperial Capital, the Vermilion Bird Emperor was honestly embroiled in a fierce debate, not just making a scene.

So wanted to surrender, while others prepared to fight to the death.

They were an empire as large as the Great Li; surrendering like this would be quite shaful.

However, more people believed that the unification of the Celestial Essence Continent by the Great Xia was unstoppable.

Especially during their argunt, the sky outside started to darken.

A guard at the door rushed in with a panicked expression: "Your Majesty, the sky outside has changed."

Everyone in the great hall felt a jolt in their hearts.

The sky looked so much like the snow over the Great Li Imperial Capital.

While everyone was still in shock and doubt, one of the Vermilion Bird Emperors spoke up first: "Emperor’s Son, Emperor’s Son, I surrender, don’t kill..."

Before he finished speaking, he was stabbed to death by the furious First Vermilion Bird Emperor: "Our Vermilion Bird Empire has no such cowardly descendants."

Xia Feng raised an eyebrow slightly, watching the argunt below with interest.

The clouds in mid-air paused for a mont; whether it was their illusion or not, it seed that after this pause, the gathering speed slowed down a bit.

The First Vermilion Bird Emperor, with a fierce look on his aged face, glared at the surrounding Vermilion Birds: "Since the founding of our Vermilion Bird, we have never surrendered!"

"Just a re demigod. We have so many Martial Sovereigns, are we afraid of him alone?"

Those Vermilion Bird Emperors and the military generals who wanted to surrender all shrank slightly.

The First Vermilion Bird Emperor had been cultivating for a long ti, and it could even be said that before Xia Tianming crossed the Divine Tribulation, everyone thought he was the one most likely to break through to demigod first.

As it turned out, Xia Tianming broke through, Xia Feng broke through, and the First Vermilion Bird Emperor still remained silent.

He was originally extrely resentful towards the two from Great Xia for stealing his thunder, and now he was even more furious being confronted.

The First Vermilion Bird Emperor was truly angry, and naively believed he could soon break through to demigod as well; even if there was so gap with Xia Feng, it wouldn’t be too far.

He never thought that Xia Feng could single-handedly kill a Martial God, even two of them.

Let alone the fact that the First Vermilion Bird Emperor hadn’t beco a demigod yet; even if he had, the gap between him and Xia Feng was insurmountable.

However, the Vermilion Bird Emperor, who had been flattered year after year, obviously did not realize this issue. Especially when soone around him brought up this topic, he wished he could imdiately kill them; over ti, no one ntioned it again.

Xia Feng tilted his head slightly, watching as the First Vermilion Bird Emperor also rose into the air.

The opponent, with a slightly heavy expression, glanced at the clouds above in mid-air, seemingly sowhat apprehensive.

But soon, he raised his head with disdain and said, "Great Xia is just so-so, how can they compare to our Vermilion Bird Empire? You are just taking advantage of our lack of defense to exploit us."

Xia Feng was initially planning to listen to what confidence and cards he had, but this person’s first sentence angered him.

His expression slightly darkened, and the clouds that had paused in mid-air once again converged over the Vermilion Bird Imperial Capital.

Just as the First Vermilion Bird Emperor was about to say sothing.

Snowflakes had already begun to fall.

The common people were still a bit puzzled; most of them didn’t pay attention to affairs in other continents, at most knowing that Great Xia had conquered the Li Huo Empire.

As for deeper matters, such as Great Xia taking over the Celestial Wind Empire, Great Xia defeating the Great Li Empire, they had at most heard a sentence about it and didn’t really know what had happened specifically.

So when people who had lived in the south all their lives saw snow for the first ti, they were even sowhat excited.

The First Vermilion Bird Emperor was so infuriated that his face was almost contorted; a ball of essence fire began to form in his palm, and he rushed towards Xia Feng.

Xia Feng didn’t even look at him; with a wave of his hand, a few snowflakes fell on the First Vermilion Bird Emperor.

It was originally thought that the person would just disappear like that, but instead, the Vermilion Bird Emperor’s body only paused for a mont, and then it was as if nothing had happened as he continued to charge at Xia Feng.

However, a Martial Sovereign in the great hall suddenly found their entire body frozen over, turning into an ice sculpture.

Xia Feng let out a soft "Oh", his gaze landing back on the First Vermilion Bird Emperor.

He ca over with a ball of essence fire, his face carrying a trace of viciousness, as if he intended to kill Xia Feng directly.

Xia Feng laughed mockingly, cold breath rising in dots, and that ball of essence fire was extinguished instantly, but beneath Xia Feng’s feet, an array suddenly started to outline itself.

Damn, this Vermilion Bird Emperor was using the cover of madness to make Xia Feng lower his guard, attacking with substandard essence fire while secretly outlining an array under Xia Feng’s feet.

Xia Feng’s expression turned a bit unpleasant as he went to check the array on the ground, and just as his divine sense probed over, a power of contract from the ether lightly linked his divine sense.

The First Vermilion Bird Emperor showed no great fear when he saw the Great Dao gathering in the sky, nor did he react when Xia Feng extinguished his essence fire in an instant.

Only when his divine sense fell on the contract did the First Vermilion Bird Emperor begin to scream frantically.

"Ah! How could it be this way! Impossible!"

Xia Feng waved a hand, pushing him aside, and the snow in mid-air finally began to fall to the ground.

The rest of the Vermilion Bird Emperors and the high-ranking officials of the Vermilion Bird Empire saw their ancestor being pushed aside, and in their cowardice, they began to surrender one by one.

Eagerly kneeling on the ground to shout, afraid that a minute’s delay might lead Xia Feng to deem them as enemies, taking their lives with the eerie snowflakes.

The First Vermilion Bird Emperor beside Xia Feng blushed furiously, his face contorted with a clear expression of resentnt.

Then, before Xia Feng made a move, many high-ranking officials of the Vermilion Bird Empire, especially those who kneeled down to beg for rcy, began to die one after another.

It was as if their bodies suddenly lost control, forcing their life to be abruptly withdrawn in death.

Xia Feng, a bit curious, used the Great Dao of Life to probe their condition.

Then he seed to suddenly recall the contract from earlier, and as he turned to glance at the First Vermilion Bird Emperor, he caught the Vermilion Bird Emperor glaring nacingly at the people below.

He grew sowhat interested: "Is it your power of the Great Dao?"

The Vermilion Bird Emperor was startled, seeming to feign ignorance: "I don’t understand what you’re talking about."

Xia Feng chuckled slightly, his divine sense fleetingly nudging the power of contract from earlier, causing the Vermilion Bird Emperor who had collapsed to suddenly show pain all over his face.

"Ah, no! You can’t... Ah! Don’t do this!"
