Chapter 381 - Great Emperor Candidates (2/2)
The Heavenly Guards were all shocked and quickly drew their distance from Yang Lu.
Their behavior made the humans even more anxious.
Uneasiness, despair, and fear began spreading in the human alliance.
Under the lightning’s radiance, Yang Lu’s sinister face looked like an evil demon that was about to destroy the world. It was terrifying.
“Mortals, do you want to witness the true power of the gods? When I swing my axe, all of you will die,” he laughed wildly. The black clouds covered the sky, transforming the entire place into hell.
The cultivators heard him and backed off immediately.
Even Li Yinyu, Xitan Changshi, and the others did not dare to go close to him.
“Damn…”
Yang Xindi gritted his teeth. Yang Lu’s prowess made him both angry and afraid.
He felt despair in his heart.
Facing the Upper Realm, how could mere mortals resist?
“Hahaha! Accept your death! Continue your fear in the netherworld!”
Yang Lu laughed wildly. Just when he finished speaking, he swung his axe.
A bolt of world-destroying lightning struck onto the ground. The entire sky was illuminated by the bolt of lightning. Everyone was inundated by the flash, as though they were killed by the might of heaven.
“Let’s go!”
Baihao Yixin picked up Feng Gule and escaped immediately.
…
Inside Fate Emperor River.
Zhou Xuanji was in a mystical state. He could not sense anything outside of Fate Emperor River.
Even though Fate Emperor River fluctuated greatly, he was not affected.
A long while later.
He opened his eyes slowly, and a purple Taichi diagram appeared in each of his eyes. It looked devilish and mystical.
He frowned in great astonishment.
The Heavenly Law revealed to him the path to be attested as a Great Emperor.
He needed to defeat ten powerful cultivators that were qualified to become a Great Emperor. Only after defeating ten of them could he be attested as a Great Emperor successfully. The more Great Emperor Candidates he defeated, the more powerful he would become after becoming a Great Emperor.
However, in the current world, how many Great Emperor Candidates were there?
Yang Di was one.
Did Spirit Sovereign Yan, who was from the Upper Realm, count?
Baihao Yixin had already become a Great Emperor. He must be one of them.
Even so, he could not find ten!
He was greatly frustrated and felt that the Heavenly Law was fooling him.
“Auntie Xian!”
At this moment, a scream filled with grief and anger came from above. Zhou Xuanji looked up immediately in shock.
He recognized the owner of the scream instantly.
Zhou Xiaoxuan!
…
The thunderclouds billowed and veiled the world in darkness—countless dead bodies laid inside the gigantic pit. There were dead bodies even in the forests at the edges. Broken limbs and heads were everywhere.
With the heavenly lightning covering his body, Yang Lu was like a lightning god looking down at the world.
29 Heavenly Guards gathered beside him, each smiling mockingly.
They saw Xian Xianghua half-knelt beside Fate Emperor River covered in blood. Her hair was messed up, and her violet skirt was burnt. The veil on her face was lost, and a murderous aura was emanating from her cold but beautiful face.
She stared fixedly at Yang Lu and his Heavenly Guards. Her eyes were filled with rage, hatred, murderous intent, and completely devoid of fear or despair.
Faraway, Daoya Old Man held tightly onto Zhou Xiaoxuan’s arms and stopped her from breaking free.
Jiang Xue, Lin Changge, Ning Zifeng, Xiao Jinghong, and the others led a few hundred thousand disciples and surrounded the thirty Heavenly Guards.
Their expression looked grim. Everywhere they looked, they could see dead bodies. The pungent smell of blood pervaded the entire place.
“Oh? Another group of worms who want to die.”
Yang Lu mocked coldly. He did not take Emperor Sword Court seriously at all.
He looked down at Xian Xianghua with disdain and laughed proudly, “Bitch, I see that you are quite pretty. Why don’t you become my bedroom pet? As long as you are a good dog, I will let you live.”
The other Heavenly Guards laughed as well, like the devils from hell.
