Hence, Huwang Xiao woke the unconscious Beitang Yiyang. However, when he heard that Huwang Xiao wanted him to submit, Beitang Yiyang sneered disdainfully, “What a joke, you want my Beitang Family to submit to you? Huwang Xiao, don’t dream about it!”
Hearing this reply, Huwang Xiao shook his head in pity. Without another word, his Archdevil Supreme Godhead’s devouring power ran at full force, causing Beitang Yiyang’s blood essence and godforce to rush out uncontrollably from his body and godhead.
His eyes widened in fear and tried to say something, but to his dismay, he couldn’t utter a word.
In less than a second, Beitang Yiyang turned into a dried corpse.
Huwang Xiao’s godforce quivered, shattering Beitang Yiyang corpse into dust, disappearing from the world.
The wounded Beitang Family Grand Elders and Elders watched this scene with petrified faces.
Huwang Xiao inhaled, pulling all of them from the pits in the ground and mountain cliffs.
“You have already seen Beitang Yiyang’s ending.” Huwang Xiao’s cold gaze swept over these Beitang Family masters, “I will also give all of you one chance to choose whether you’re willing to submit, or would rather die.”
Those Grand Elders and Elders were deathly pale.
Death? There was no one who wasn’t afraid of dying.
But to betray their own family and submit to Huwang Xiao? They were a hundred times unwilling, and even more unable to accept it.
While these Beitang Family masters were still hesitating, Huwang Xiao grabbed a Fifth Order Highgod Realm Grand Elder to his front, and his Archdevil Supreme Godhead’s devouring power rushed out.
In the blink of an eye, that Fifth Order Highgod Realm Grand Elder turned into a dried corpse.
Huwang Xiao casually waved his hand and the dried corpse turned into dust, floating away in the air.
The hesitating Beitang Family masters immediately tensed up.
“I don’t have much patience right now, you have ten breaths to consider the matter. After ten breaths, those unwilling to submit to me shall die!” Huwang Xiao’s glimmered with bloodthirst.
The Beitang Family masters felt a cold shiver down to their hearts.
Ten breaths!
Two breaths later, a Grand Elder finally stepped out, willing to submit to Huwang Xiao. Seeing this, several others began to speak up, willing to submit.
Soon, half of the Beitang Family Grand Elders and Elders were willing to submit to Huwang Xiao. Several breaths later, more than half had already submitted.
Beitang Yiyang had selected more than six hundred Beitang Family masters to follow him to the Martial Spirit World. Now, more than five hundred of them were willing to submit to Huwang Xiao, leaving a little more than a hundred that had yet to decide.
Huwang Xiao’s eyes swept over those hundred over people, his voice extremely cold, “Ten breaths have passed. Since you all can’t decide, then be buried here!”
Just as Huwang Xiao’s voice fell, violent waves of godforce gushed out from these hundred over people. Those Beitang Family Grand Elders and Elders who had silently refused to submit seemed to have reached a tacit agreement to self detonate, wanting to bring Huwang Xiao with them to hell.
Still, Huwang Xiao was already prepared for this. With a light sway, he reverted back to his human form, after which one thousand arms fanned out from his back.
Godly Xumi Art!
In the next instant, one thousand arms executed the God Binding Palm at the same time, raining down on those Beitang Family masters and binding their godforce.
…
Inside the Vermilion Bird Institute’s great hall, Institute Principal Qiu Baifei was staring at the sun setting on the horizon, speaking to the Grand Elders behind him without turning around, “The sun has set, Huwang Xiao has probably died in the hands of Yelu Chufei and Beitang Yiyang by now.”
It was the day of Huwang Xiao’s wedding. All forces in the four galaxies, be they big or small, were aware that the Yelu and Beitang Families wanted to slaughter the entire Martial Spirit World.
There were more than a few people in the four galaxies who wanted to see Huwang Xiao dead, and one of them was the Vermilion Bird Institute Principal Qiu Baifei, who was now waiting for news.
“It's certain that Huwang Xiao is dead by now, he has no way of fighting back against both Yelu and Beitang Families at the same time.” He Feifan laughed, “There should be an Elder bringing good news soon.”
Right at this time, a Vermilion Bird Institute Elder ran in with a flustered expression.
“How is it?” Qiu Baifei asked anxiously, “Is Huwang Xiao already dead?”
Ch.903
That Vermilion Bird Institute Elder’s tongue quivered as he spoke, shaking his head, unable to hide his trepidation, “Institute Principal, that Huwang Xiao, Huwang Xiao did not die! He didn’t die!!”
“He didn’t die?!” Qiu Baifei, He Feifan, and the other Grand Elders present looked dumbfounded.
“Did he flee?” He Feifan asked anxiously, “The Yelu and Beitang Families have so many masters, they actually let Huwang Xiao escape?!”
Qiu Baifei was extremely upset, “Such garbage Yelu and Beitang Families, they have so many masters but they can’t even kill one Huwang Xiao? They even let him escape!”
After hearing that Elder report that Huwang Xiao did not die, Qiu Baifei, He Feifan, and everyone else naturally took it for granted that he had escaped.
There was no other possibility in their eyes.
The same Vermilion Bird Institute Elder answered fearfully, “No, Institute Principal, that Huwang Xiao did not run away.”
“Did not run?” Qiu Baifei and He Feifan repeated with doubt.
“Could it be, both Yelu and Beitang Families were interested in his talent and they decided to let Huwang Xiao keep his life?” Qiu Baifei muttered under his breath in doubt.
“No, it-it’s, both Yelu and Beitang Families’ masters are dead! No, n-no, the Yelu Family masters are all dead, and those Beitang Family masters who did not submit to Huwang Xiao were also killed.” That Vermilion Bird Institute Elder dared not conceal anything, explaining fearfully.
“What?! All of the Yelu Family’s masters are dead? Killed by Huwang Xiao?!” Qiu Baifei and everyone else jumped to their feet with deep shock on their faces, their eyes protruded, their minds buzzing.
“Yes, all Yelu Family masters were killed by Huwang Xiao.” The Elder added cautiously, “Including their Patriarch, Yelu Chufei, not a single person escaped. Later on, Beitang Yiyang arrived, and he too died in Huwang Xiao’s hands, but a large number of Beitang Family masters have chosen to submit to Huwang Xiao, thus escaping death.”
Qiu Baifei, He Feifan, and everyone else were stunned agape.
Dead? All dead?!
Yelu Chufei actually died in Huwang Xiao’s hands?! Beitang Yiyang too!
“Impossible, impossible!! Yelu Chufei, Beitang Yiyang, both of these people are high-level Highgod Realm masters, how could Huwang Xiao be a match for them?!” Qiu Baifei vehemently shook his head, shouting as if he had lost reason.
He Feifan and the other present were also in disbelief, finding it hard to accept this news.
…
Black Tortoise Galaxy, Tumed World.
Inside an inn, Ancestor Cang Xiong and more than a dozen people were clinking wine cup, merrily toasting each other.
This group of people, Ancestor Cang Xiong included, were none other than the dozen Ancestor who had recently terminated their blood contracts with Huwang Xiao.
“I wonder what the situation is like in Huwang Clan Manor.” Ancestor Cang Xiong put down his wine cup, speaking without any concern.
“How else could it be? They were definitely all slaughtered, blood flowed into a river, with nothing left. Based on the Yelu and Beitang Families’ combined strength, forget a measly Huwang Clan Manor, they could easily rampage through the four galaxies.” A Highgod Realm Ancestor answered carelessly.
“T
hank God we were smart enough to terminate our blood contracts with him. Even though we suffered a bit of backlash due to that, it is still better than dying together with Huwang Xiao.” Another one of the Ancestors laughed, adding, “The news of Huwang Xiao’s death is likely to spread very fast throughout the four galaxies.”
“But, Shi Xiaofei that little wench, what a pity. She really was an enticing little girl.”
“Who can say for sure, maybe she is being used by both families right now. Just imagining her stripped naked, my lower part throbs.”
Everyone erupted in laughter.
All of a sudden, one of them stopped laughing, hastily taking out his communication talisman with a disbelieving expression.
One of his disciples had just reported to him about the situation in the Huwang Clan Manor. And the news was…!
“What wrong? Is Huwang Xiao dead?” Ancestor Cang Xiong noticed that particular companion’s flustered expression, and made a joke, “Even if that Huwang Xiao is really dead, you need not show such a shocked expression right?”
That Highgod Realm Ancestor wasn’t in the mood to laugh at all, his hand slowly extended out the communication talisman, speaking in a solemn voice, “You take a look.”
With doubt in his eyes, Ancestor Cang Xiong received the communication talisman and his divine sense swept over it. The smile on his face was frozen as disbelief and shock took over.
The other Ancestors detected their strangeness, and each of them took turns in reading the message within the communication talisman. In an instant, their merry mood vanished, leaving a gloomy silence hanging over their heads.
“How can it be that Huwang Xiao is still alive? Impossible, how can he possibly kill Yelu Chufei, how could he kill Beitang Yiyang?!” One of the Highgod Realm Ancestors shrieked.
Ancestor Cang Xiong seemed paler than any other person there, mumbling to himself, “Huwang Xiao didn’t die, but we terminated our blood contracts and betrayed him. Later, to us, he will surely...” Thinking of their impending doom, cold sweat trickled down his forehead.
The other Ancestors’ faces became ashen at the thought.
“How about we hurry back now and kowtow in forgiveness?” One of them suggested, his voice a bit scratchy.
“It’s no use, it’s already too late.” Cang Xiong shook his head.
Indeed, it was already too late. From the time they decided to terminate their blood contract, in Huwang Xiao’s heart, they were already dead.
The reason they were able to live until now, why Huwang Xiao did not kill them immediately, was to let them know Yelu Chufei and Beitang Yiyang’s ending. And now that they knew, their own deaths were not far away.
The news of Yelu Chufei and Beitang Yiyang having been killed by Huwang Xiao spread throughout the four galaxies at an alarming speed. In a short period, the four galaxies’ forces were in an uproar, astounded. Of course, there were even more people feeling regret and apprehension.
Above all else was the astonishment about the fact that the previously missing Heavenly Mountain had actually been actually taken away by Huwang Xiao! Huwang Xiao was the mysterious master who took the Heavenly Mountain years ago!
Then came the news of Huwang Xiao’s orders, that cultivators who had resided in Martial Spirit World and left before the two families’ attack would no longer be permitted to enter Martial Spirit World again.
Following that, another one of Huwang Xiao’s orders spread out, ordering all four galaxies’ Patriarchs and Ancestors to gather at the Huwang Clan Manor within one month’s time. Those who were absent would be killed!
Whereas those who could bring the heads of the Ancestors who had terminated their blood contracts with Huwang Xiao would be rewarded with a hundred sacred grade immortal spirit stones!
As one order after another came from Huwang Xiao and news of it spread out, the four galaxies were once again in an uproar, filled with unease and panic.
Due to the Huwang Clan Manor’s extensive damage, Huwang Xiao pushed back the wedding date to two months later, instructing Ancestor Bifang and the others to rebuild the manor.
Deep into the silent night.
Huwang Xiao was sitting cross-legged above the lightning dragon spiritual vein, absorbing its energy at rapid speed.
Although Yelu Chufei and Beitang Yiyang were dead, the Yelu and Beitang Ancestors were still alive. Therefore, Huwang Xiao dared not relax, planning to completely refine the lightning dragon spiritual vein in two months, enhancing his cultivation further.
While he was in seclusion in order to refine the lightning dragon spiritual vein, inside the Vermilion Bird Institute’s great hall, Principal Qiu Baifei as well as the Institute’s Grand Elders were discussing the matter of Huwang Xiao demanding that all Highgod Realm masters of the four galaxies travel to the Huwang Clan Manor in one month’s time.
“That Huwang Xiao is really lawless and arrogant! Who does he think he is, actually ordering us, all four galaxies Highgod Realm masters to assemble at the Huwang Clan Manor within one month?!” He Feifan fumed, “We refuse to go over, let’s see what can he do to us. We’ll join hands with the four galaxies’ Ancestors and Patriarchs! I don’t believe he will dare to kill the Highgod Realm masters of all four galaxies!”
Ch.904
“I heard the number of brilliant geniuses who died in Huwang Xiao’s hands in this term’s Highgod Advancement Tournament isn't a small, and one of them was an even greater talent than Yelu Chufei, and Beitang Wuji, he was the Fortune Gate’s core disciple Fang Chu.” Qiu Baifei spoke solemnly, “The Fortune Gate is the Everlasting Galaxy’s most powerful and most ancient super force, not that much weaker compared to the current Wang Clan.”
He Feifan brightened, “What Master means is…?”
Qiu Baifei’s eyes gleamed, “The Fortune Gate is not a power the likes of which those Yelu and Beitang Families can be compared to, Huwang Xiao can’t be arrogant for long.”
Very quickly, the one-month deadline arrived.
Sitting cross-legged in the Heavenly Mountain’s underground space, Huwang Xiao who had been cultivating for the past one month slowly opened his eyes. Fine streaks of lightning flashed in the depth of his pupils.
After one month of continuous refinement, he finally finished absorbing the remaining energy inside the lightning dragon spiritual vein.
Adding the blood and godforce he had absorbed from two mid-Seventh Order Highgod Realm masters, Yelu Chufei and Beitang Yiyang, as well as a large number of both families masters’, Huwang Xiao’s cultivation finally rose to late-Fourth Order Highgod Realm.
Late-Fourth Order Highgod Realm!
Although it was only a small breakthrough, Huwang Xiao’s strength actually more than doubled.
Now, even without transforming into his dragon form, Huwang Xiao believed he could completely defeat Patriarch Yelu and Patriarch Beitang.
After a moment, he exited the Heavenly Mountain’s space, appearing in the main hall of the newly rebuilt Huwang Clan Manor. He then summoned both Green Dragon Beast King and Ancestor Bifang to report to him the latest situation in the four galaxies, not forgetting about the Patriarchs and Ancestors who were supposed to gather at the Huwang Clan Manor within the stipulated one month.
The Green Dragon Beast King hesitated before reporting, “Master, so far, slightly over four hundred Patriarchs and Ancestors have arrived.”
“Just around four hundred?” A piercing glint shone in Huwang Xiao’s eyes.
On the surface, the four galaxies had more than seven hundred Highgod Realm masters, but this number merely counted their human race Highgod Realm masters and did not include the demonic beast clans nor the Highgod Realm masters who were in prolonged seclusion. Overall, Huwang Xiao believed that the four galaxies had no less than one thousand Highgod Realm masters.
In other words, less than half of them came to Huwang Clan Manor.
“What’s the reason?” Huwang Xiao asked, his low voice seemed to exude an invisible pressure.
Ancestor Bifang still reported honestly, “The Vermilion Bird Institute’s Principal Qiu Baifei has led a large number of Highgod Realm Patriarchs and Ancestors to submit under the Everlasting Galaxy’s Fortune Gate, about one thousand of them.”
“Submit to the Fortune Gate?” Huwang Xiao’s expression sank.
“That Qiu Baifei even said that Master can’t be arrogant for long, thus Master and those following you will die miserably!” Green Dragon Beast King spoke.
Huwang Xiao harrumphed coldly, sounding like a thunderclap through the main hall.
“Master, should we hunt down Qiu Baifei and his group?” Ancestor Bifang inquired.
Huwang Xiao shook his head, “No need, let them go and submit to the Fortune Gate.” When the time comes, he would deal with them in one fell swoop.
“What about Ancestor Cang Xiong and the rest?” Huwang Xiao asked another question.
“Ancestor Cang Xiong and the rest are already dead, their heads are here.” Green Dragon Beast King said as he took out Ancestor Cang Xiong and several other peoples’ heads. One could see the regret, unwillingness, and fear still etched on their faces.
The gaze in Huwang Xiao’s eyes was cold. With a flick of his fingers, a sliver of fire element godforce fell on the severed heads, burning them to ashes.
“Here are one thousand and seven hundred sacred grade immortal spirit stones, pass them down.”
Huwang Xiao said while waving his hand. He had stated before that anyone who brought over the head of an Ancestor who had terminated their blood contract with him would be rewarded with one hundred sacred grade immortal spirit stones.
Including Ancestor Cang Xiong, there was a total of seventeen heads, amounting to one thousand seven hundred sacred grade immortal spirit stones.
“Thank you, Master.” Green Dragon Beast King and Ancestor Bifang said in unison.
