Chapter 2190: Insane Blood Gods (1/2)
Emperor Sun Yang was an emperor with a different last name from the clan of his banner. Though he had a strong grasp on authority, he still met opposition everywhere. Thus, he chose to cultivate the heretical art given to him by Ba Shang.
Of course, Ba Shang didn’t do it out of goodwill, only wanting to pull the emperor down the mud with him and to get even more members of the system to cultivate it for a tide of darkness to engulf the system once more.
As his wife, Queen w.a.n.g Han was naturally the first to spot the changes in him and eventually found out. She was much more insightful and didn’t want to falter to the heretical path just because of oppositions from the other three great powers.
Thus, she convinced him to drop it, in order to save both himself and the system.
Alas, the emperor had a taste of this heretical art so how could he give it up? His cultivation rose like the wind; it was too tempting.
After several useless attempts, she knew that there was no turning back for him. He had fallen into the abyss of blood. She reported this to the ancestors of the w.a.n.g in order to come up with a countermeasure.
The cultivation of this art was a taboo so it could take the w.a.n.g down after being exposed. The consequence was immensely grave.
Everyone knew what happened next. The emperor pa.s.sed away and a new dynasty was coming.
Though her expression was cold, her heart was the opposite - full of pain and bitterness. It wasn’t easy for the duo to surpa.s.s all of their obstacles since her husband was a disciple from a tiny sect. Outside of his own heroism, she paid and toiled for him in order to gain her clan’s full support.
She was full of hope for the future because they were still young and had a full generation to overcome the remaining problems. A cultivator would have several thousand years as the ruler, more than ample time.
Unfortunately, Sun Yang only saw what was before him and ruined all of their hard work.
His death meant that everything she worked for had gone down the drain. The w.a.n.g would also pay a great price because the system would pick a new emperor, the start of a new compet.i.tion.
However, they had no other choice. It was either to let Sun Yang continue to cultivate the heretical art and ruin the system or cut off their own hand. Ultimately, they made the latter choice.
The truth behind this was out in the open, but her ready admission still shocked the crowd, causing some to gasp.
An emperor, the symbol of authority in the system, secretly broke the iron law to cultivate the heretical art? Truly astounding.
“Ha, his early death is quite a shame. I hope his spirit is around to see the heretical art engulf the three worlds one more.” Ba Shang smiled deviously: “He’s just like Virtue True G.o.d, an amazing pioneer.”
“Heresy!” Li Qian’s eyes turned fierce as he took one step forward: “I shall cut you down today!”
“Li Qian, don’t be so confident now!” Ba Shang was not afraid.
“Boom!” The short-legged dragon appeared again.
It was completely drenched in blood this time around as if it had just come out of a blood ocean.
“Ra!” The dragon opened its jaw and began to suck towards Li Qian’s direction.
“Buzz.” The vegetation, rivers, and earth near Li Qian instantly withered and cracked.
It was devouring the worldly energy of this place. Even a few disciples near there got turned into mists of blood and were devoured.
