Chapter 203 - Modern Legend (1/2)

Seeing Zhou Yalong being held like a cloth sack by Chongming Demon Monarch, the entire city erupted into loud clamor.

Countless people cried out as they were unable to believe their eyes and ears.

“Life-Devouring Demon Chief? Heavens, this turn of events…”

“Could it be that Zhou Xuanji really is the Tanhua Sect’s Vice Sect Lord?”

“Are you dumb? It’s evidently the Tanhua Sect trying to rope Zhou Xuanji in. With this kind of talent, what faction would not be interested?”

“That’s right, Sword God Zhou has never committed any bloody atrocities before.”

“Experts rely on their own strength; Sword God Zhou doesn’t need to attach himself to any faction.”

Voices sounded out from every corner of the city; Zong Kuiming’s betrayal was much too shocking.

Now, even if Emperor Yan of Zhou came down, he would not be able to turn the situation around.

Zhou Xuanji looked at Huang Lianxin and said, “Go and take revenge.”

He then turned his gaze back to Zong Kuiming.

That fellow was looking at him with a smile that did not seem like a genuine smile, which made him feel quite frustrated.

“Tanhua Sect’s Vice Sect Lord… things have become troublesome…” Zhang Lanya muttered to herself. Now that the Tanhua Sect had their eyes on Zhou Xuanji, her Hanyin Divine Sect would not dare to try to fight for him.

The Tanhua Sect’s people were all bloodthirsty, and the Hanyin Divine sect did not want to wade into those muddy waters.

Xu Xianxuan did not think so much. Seeing that Zhou Xuanji was out of danger, she felt at ease.

Lu Longlin, Yang Zhongtian, Xitan Changshi, and the other experts were all pondering about the relationship between Zhou Xuanji and the Tanhua sect.

Seeing Zhou Xuanji and the others’ expressions, it seemed that they were also caught off-guard.

“Zhou Yalong, there is a perpetrator to every injustice and every debt has a debtor. Back then you cruelly slaughtered countless innocent people; today, you must pay. Live as a good person in your next life,” Huang Lianxin said in a low voice. After saying this, she drew her sword and chopped off Zhou Yalong’s head.

After all of his spirit energy was drained by Zong Kuiming, Zhou Yalong was unable to project his Astral Spirit. He immediately died above the Great Zhou Royal City.

One of the Northern Wilderness’ Twin Dragons had fallen just like that.

He had died a miserable death, without being able to retaliate at all.

The entire city fell silent.

Everyone looked up, wanting to see Emperor Yan of Zhou’s reaction.

Emperor Yan of Zhou’s face was ashen and he gripped his hands within his sleeves into fists, evidently trying to quell his fury.

He was already 10,000 feet high in the sky and would enter the void at any moment. What would be the point in charging down at this moment?

“Zong Kuiming, you will regret this,” Emperor Yan of Zhou said in a low voice. He was ascending first and would wait for Zong Kuiming in the Upper Realm.

When that time came, he would annihilate Zong Kuiming!

“All I know is that you’re the one regretting this right now,” Zong Kuiming said uncaringly, “Tanhua in the human world, Asura in Hades! The Tanhua Sect will once again sweep across the Northern Wilderness; watch well from above!”

Emperor Yan of Zhou was incredibly infuriated, but he did not have the courage to step out of the sunlight.

Soon, Emperor Yan of Zhou disappeared above the clouds.

“Wielding the halberd within the household, mutual aggression in the harem. Zhou Zisu, in the end, it was you who didn’t have enough ability; you can’t blame anyone else,” Daoya Old Man said as he sighed and stroked his beard. He knew about Emperor Yan of Zhou’s matters clearly.

A big part of why Emperor Yan of Zhou could become the Emperor was because of Merciful Melody Cliff and Lin Guanyu’s help. It was because of this he was incredibly patient with the Empress.

He was also a passionate person from the beginning, and all of this had led to the disaster today.

The true victims were Zhou Xuanji and Zhou Yalong.

However, Zhou Yalong’s death was partially because he had wicked designs and slaughtered the innocent.

“What should we do now? Should we leave…?” Xiao Jinghong asked Zhou Xuanji. After all, Zhou Yalong was dead now.

Now that the Great Zhou had no leader, they could leave as they pleased.

It was all up to whether or not Zhou Xuanji wanted to seize the throne!

Zhou Xuanji smirked as he said, “What’s so great about being the Emperor? It’s much better to be the person the Emperor relies on.”

Everyone was stunned.

Zhou Xuanji waved his hand at Zhou Chengxin and said, “Zhou Chengxin, hurry up and come over here.”
