Chapter 2251 - I Don’t Need it!
Chapter 2251: I Don’t Need it!
“You want to yield to me?” The black-robed man stared at the Heavenless Demon Exalt’s shining soul as he scoffed.
“That’s right. I’m willing to yield to you, to become your subordinate and serve you wholeheartedly,” the Heavenless Demon Exalt said in a hurry. The two other Grand Primes of the Tian Empire both heard his messages clearly.
Immediately, the faces of the two Grand Primes darkened. They seem defeated.
“The Empyrean Demon Cult. The Empyrean Demon Cult. It’s all because of offending the Empyrean Demon Cult that our Tian Empire has been reduced to this. Heavenless, you’ve doomed our entire Tian Empire. Sigh, if we had known earlier, we would have stopped you with everything we had when you targeted the Empyrean Demon Cult before,” the two Grand Primes were filled with regret. However, they also understood that regret could change nothing.
The Tian Empire was done for. Basically all of the central and peak powers of the Tian Empire were gathered within the imperial palace for orders, but in the end, they were all destroyed by that terrifying palm strike.
“According to my knowledge, there’s no other Grand Prime in the Empyrean Demon Cult aside from you, while I am a Grand Prime that has reached the Fourth Heavenly Layer. If I join, it’ll only make the Empyrean Demon Cult even more powerful,” the Heavenless Demon Exalt said in a hurry. He was basically willing to do anything because he knew extremely well that his awaiting fate would be worse than death if he did not do this.
“You’re right. Aside from me, there is no other Grand Prime in the Empyrean Demon Cult,” the black-robed man said gently, but his gaze towards the Heavenless Demon Exalt remained cold.
The Heavenless Demon Exalt became relieved. However, just when he thought the great elder had accepted him, the great elder’s next words condemned him to a hellish fate once again.
“Too bad, I don’t need it!”
With that, the Heavenless Demon Exalt’s head immediately exploded. A hand condensed from demonic aura had directly shattered his skull, grabbing his soul in an extremely brutal manner.
“No!” The Heavenless Demon Exalt shrieked out in a miserable manner, but this only lasted for a few seconds. His soul vanished from the hands of the great elder, having been stowed away.
Afterwards, the great elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult looked towards the two other Grand Primes of the Tian Empire.
“The destruction of the Empyrean Demon Cult and the capture of the girl was all done by Heavenless. It has nothing to do with us…” A Grand Prime sighed gently. His eyes were gloomy as he was ashen.
The great elder said nothing at all. His eyes were cold, emotionless, and merciless. He directly extended a hand and retrieved two shining souls.
Having lost their souls, the bodies of the two Grand Primes immediately fell powerlessly. The powerful presences that radiated from their bodies rapidly declined, and in just a while, their presences completely vanished from the surroundings.
“The Heavenless Demon Exalt has died…”
“The two others in the Tian Empire have died as well…”
“An everlasting empire has been destroyed just like this, with a simple gesture…”
…
The peak experts gathered outside the Godsfallen clan sighed emotionally. All of their expressions were extremely mixed.
In the past few days, the Tian Empire had pressured them to the point of suffocation, yet the powerful everlasting empire had rapidly declined in such a short amount of time, having been reduced to nothing. This huge development had quite a psychological impact on all of them.
“Send orders to mobilise everyone immediately and slaughter the remaining forces of the Tian Empire…” The lord of the Heaven’s Link Peak sent down orders rapidly before looking at the peak experts around him. He said sternly, “Everyone, let’s wait here for now and receive the great elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult.”
All the peak experts gathered there were shocked when they heard that. Someone immediately cried out, “What did you say? The great elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult will be coming here?”
At this moment, all of their expressions changed. They only held some dread towards the great elder before they had witnessed him fight, but now, they were completely filled with fear and unease.
The lord of the Heaven’s Link Peak nodded. He looked towards the Godsfallen clan and said, “Please ask Houston to come!” The peak lord’s voice directly rang out in the depths of the Godsfallen clan, in a quiet, little courtyard prepared for the Heaven’s Link Peak.
…
The white-robed Sacredfeather stood on a roof within the Tian Yuan clan. He stared at the churning demonic clouds in the sky in shock. Whether it was the Tian Yuan clan, the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian, or the entire southern region, their skies had all been shrouded by the demonic clouds, making it pitch-dark.
Lanterns were lit up everywhere in the Tian Yuan clan and the various streets of the provincial city. They used the weak firelight to purge the surrounding darkness, providing some lumination.
“So powerful!” Sacredfeather thought as he was extremely shocked.
“Sacredfeathered Tiger Emperors should strength in slaughter and grow in the blood of enemies, not like what you’re doing, cultivating slowly in peace and ease. You’ll only become a flower raised in a greenhouse like that. You won’t be able to bear any burden.”
At this moment, a voice rang out from behind Sacredfeather.
The sudden voice surprised Sacredfeather. He suddenly looked back and saw that a black-robed man had appeared silently behind him.
His black clothes merged with the darkness, making him seem like a part of the surroundings.
Sacredfeather immediately staggered backwards. He glanced at the formation around the entire Tian Yuan clan as he cried out, “How did you get in here?”
“This formation can stop Chaotic Primes, but it can’t stop me,” the black-robed man said indifferently.
At this moment, Sacredfeather’s eyes adapted to the darkness, and he finally saw the black-robed man’s face. It shocked him.
“Y- y- you’re…” Sacredfeather stared straight at the black-robed man with widened eyes as disbelief filled his face.
“You’ve probably guessed my true identity already, and you’re right,” said the black-robed man.
“Then… how should I refer to you,” Sacredfeather calmed down very quickly and said with mixed feelings.
“Mo Tianyun is my real name, not something that I made up,” said the black-robed man. Afterwards, his gaze suddenly became piercing. He stared at Sacredfeather closely and said sternly, “We, the Sacredfeathered Tiger Emperors, possess one of the most powerful bloodlines in the world, enough to directly rival the ancestral dragons. However, the power of our bloodline and our limitless potential can only be awakened through trials of life and death, through navigating through mountains of corpses, and the baptism of the blood of our enemies. If you remain within the Tian Yuan clan and avoid these battles, it will only be detrimental. In the end, it will only waste the power of your bloodline.”
Mo Tianyun spoke powerfully, lecturing his junior like an elder.
Sacredfeather became ashamed. He said, “I know. I’m only staying here to wait for my elder brother to return.”
“Your elder brother?” Mo Tianyun was slightly surprised, but his eyes deepened in the next moment. Predictions flashed through his eyes, and in the next moment, he knew who Sacredfeather was talking about. He said, “Jian Chen is fine. You don’t need to worry about him. You should walk the path you need to go down on.”
“We Sacredfeathered Tiger Emperors originally came from the Immortals’ World. We don’t belong in the Saints’ World. We will kill our way back to the Immortals’ World one day and take revenge. When that day comes, I hope you can protect yourself at the very least,” said Mo Tianyun. As soon as he mentioned revenge, Mo Tianyun struggled to remain completely composed. His emotions fluctuate slightly.
Afterwards, he passed a talisman to Sacredfeather and said, “This teleportation talisman will take you to a certain place before leading you to a ruined world. The world in question is the ruins of the Spirits’ World. The environment there is horrible and filled with danger, where the slightest carelessness can result in death. However, fortuitous encounters accompany danger. It will be a good place for you to train. When you are ready, go.”
“Many Primordial realm experts have died there, but once you go, I won’t provide any assistance to you. It will all be up to you.”
“Do not disgrace the bloodline of the Sacredfeather Tiger Emperors…”
Mo Tianyun vanished silently after leaving the talisman behind. He left just like how he had come, where the formation around the Tian Yuan clan seemed completely irrelevant.
The peak experts all stood outside the Godsfallen clan silently as they waited. Many of them were nervous.
Houston also happened to be among them in his blood-red robes. He stood beside the peak lord quietly.
At this moment, a black-robed figure who seemed to be a part of the darkness appeared there silently. He stood with his arms behind his back, a hundred metres away from the peak experts.
He was Mo Tianyun!
His arrival immediately made the peak experts narrow their eyes. They were extremely stern.
“You’ve finally come,” the peak lord looked at the figure in the darkness and said sternly.
Mo Tianyun did not look at the peak experts gathered there. Instead, he stared at Houston, who stood beside the peak lord, as he became emotional. There were even undisguised excitement and eagerness in the depths of his eyes.
However, he calmed down very soon. He looked at the white-robed, sagely peak lord who stood at the front and said, “Thank you for taking care of him for all these years.”
The peak lord inhaled deeply and said slowly, “I saved him back then for the sake of the Cloud Plane. I do not wish to see all the lives on the Cloud Plane massacred.”
“My matters with the Tian Empire end here. I’ll leave the rest up to you.” With that, Mo Tianyun no longer said anything more. He waved his hand and demonic aura wrapped around Houston before they both disappeared.
