Chapter 961 - Seeding (1/2)
Zhong Yue sheathed the two innate divine sabers into the same sheath, and as the sound of the sabers entering the sheath rang out, Zhu Xie's body exploded!
And this time, he was dead for good!
"Eh? Eh!? King Shen Wuwei, you killed Zhu Xie!"
The pretentious Tian Xuanzi pointed at King Shen Wuwei and shouted, "Zhu Xie had never offended you or mistreated you! Why did you kill him!"
King Shen Wuwei's expression turned grim and he stared at Tian Xuanzi ferociously, "It's not my doing!"
Tian Xuanzi crossed his arms and smirked, "Still trying to make an excuse? Countless pairs of eyes saw that, you've reached your hands towards Zhu Xie and he was torn into pieces immediately! His Majesty asked you to have Zhu Xie back down here, but you killed him! How dare you!"
King Shen Wuwei's expression was gloomy as ever; previously, he noticed something wrong in Zhu Xie, attempted to use his own strength to suppress the injuries in Zhu Xie but just as his hand touched Zhu Xie, the innate god was already gone.
From an instance, it was just like King Shen Wuwei was the one that killed Zhu Xie.
"Even if His Majesty did not execute you and your family, the Evil Monarch will!"
Tian Xuanzi mocked, "From newborn to the elderly, your entire family is going to be executed!"
At the side, Ling Zheng's expression was no better than King Shen Wuwei's, and he thought, This fool Tian Xuanzi is going to make an enemy out of King Shen Wuwei! I knew there would be nothing good when I brought him along with me….
Meanwhile, the terrified King Shen Wuwei quickly knelt before Heavenly Monarch Di Ming as he tried to explain himself, "Your Majesty, it really isn't me…."
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming let out a cold humph and he gave Zhong Yue a long stare.
With the two sabers rings out out at two different time, before the first zing noise faded, the second one had already sounded, entangling it with the first noise.
With Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's knowledge and experience, it was not hard for him to notice what Zhong Yue did there.
In the last exchanged blow, Zhong Yue had sliced Zhu Xie into pieces, but back then, Zhu Xie was still alive as the energy from the Saber of Time and Space remained hidden in Zhu Xie's body without exploding.
Zhu Xie did not notice this and so were the other stronger ones in Heaven Court because the timing was not right; the Saber of Time halted the time at some point in the future and this was entirely decided by Zhong Yue.
Which meant that when Zhong Yue swung the saber, the attack was hidden within Zhu Xie's body but it did not hit him at the present but in the future!
It was hard to explain this to someone but if this someone who knew how the Daos of Time and Space worked, then there would be no questions.
Zhong Yue sheathed the saber and the first zing noise was very important as it had to be created by the Saber of Time to trigger the power of time planted within Zhu Xie's body and anchor the explosion at the specific time.
And the second noise was from the Saber of Space, which triggered the power of the dimension.
As the two innate divine sabers' noise superimposed each together, the power of the two sabers exploded, killing the innate god!
While the monarchs roughly knew what Zhong Yue had pulled off just now, the Imperial Emperors and Creators only had a rough guess as to what was going on.
As for those on the lower levels like the Deity Emperors and Deity Overlords, they were all confused and many among them thought that it was King Shen Wuwei that killed Zhu Xie!
But how many of the monarchs on the spot that knew what happened were willing to help Heavenly Monarch Di Ming?
Deep down, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming also knew that there were many pairs of eyes set onto the seat he sat on and that they were more than happy to see the Heaven Court being humiliated.
They wouldn't stand up for him, clarify that it was Zhong Yue who killed Zhu Xie and if Heavenly Monarch Di Ming pointed this out, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian would in turn stir up the water by accusing King Shen Wuwei.
If this happened, this nonsense will persist and indirectly impact the Heaven Court's reputation negatively.
"Such moves, King Yi!"
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming gave Zhong Yue a smile before turning around towards Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, "Xian Tian, I am getting envious of you for having someone like King Yi to serve you! You are very fortunate to have someone no weaker than you as your servant!"
And Imperial Emperor Xian Tian gave Heavenly Monarch Di Ming a smile.
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming then looked towards the nervous King Shen Wuwei and calmly said, "Get up, Zhu Xie is the one to be blamed for his death, he brought this on himself for being able to back off from the fight."
King Shen Wuwei immediately got up and said, "Your Majesty, it is probably the dirty tricks of King Yi, those two saber zings…."
"Silence," interrupted Heavenly Monarch Di Ming.
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian added, "Without any evidence, it is best to not make any statements."
King Shen Wuwei immediately understood what happened and he kept quiet after that.
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming then summoned Zhong Yue and encouraged, "King Yi's strength is extraordinary. From now onwards, I would like to see you serve the Heaven Court loyally and sincerely."
