Chapter 983 - Public Execution (2/2)
Feng Jikai, on the other hand, continued drinking and rebutted with insouciantly, "Since when did you all view me as the clan master? Heh, I'm merely a puppet controlled by all of you. You only think about me when something bad happens?"
He continued mocking, "I've never left the unworldly world, and now you are expecting me to fight someone like that? Old ancestor, you are the real clan master, so why don't you make a good example for them? If you charge forward, maybe then we'll become inspired to follow behind you."
Fu Mei frowned. Just as he was about to charged forward, he became worried that Feng Jikai and the other Fuxi would not follow.
If that happened, then he would be in trouble.
By then, perhaps he would be the other one who was kneeling there to be beheaded!
Was the risk worth it?
Uncertainty was the scariest thing. With the monster hiding in the seal not revealing himself, the monster's true strength was shrouded in mystery.
Feng Zhen is already too old and does not have much time left. Why should I risk my life to save a dying old man like him?
As soon as Fu Mei thought of this, he found a reason to comfort himself, This monster is afraid of charging out the seals. If he charges out, Feng Jikai and the others will have to fight him to death for their own lives. With me around, that monster will be no match for us. If we can keep ourselves safe, then there is no point in risking things for Feng Zhen!
Right now, Zhong Yue was like an executioner, swinging his saber endlessly and beheading Feng Zhen.
Underneath his feet, Feng Zhen's heads had stacked into a mountain size; in a few months time, Zhong Yue had beheaded him countless times and the decapitated heads would have rolled and stacked onto each other.
His saber was much quicker than before, his [Dao Crusher] even more perfected and his strength increased drastically, which eased his efforts in beheading Feng Zhen.
Though Feng Zhen's Immortal Body was not as strong as before, more of it was because of his rapidly increased saber techniques which made his work easier!
The most crucial part is that when he beheaded Feng Zhen, there seemed to be something slammed into Zhong Yue's mind, allowing him to understand Daos even clearer. Now, the barrier between him and the True Deity level was as thin as paper!
Finally, with another strike, blood started flowing out from Feng Zhen's neck!
It was a sign of Feng Zhen's Immortal Body was starting to break down!
Previously, even after Feng Zhen was beheaded countless times, there was no blood at all. This new development meant Feng Zhen was dangerously close to his limit!
But Feng Zhen was persistent, growing his head back out again as Zhong Yue continued swinging his saber, cutting his head off each time he regenerated it.
At this moment, Feng Zhen's regeneration speed was much slower than before and Fu Mei was a little reluctant to see this as his old friend was going to die before this puny Heavenly Deity.
The glorious and mighty existence back then was now being humiliated by a puny insect before his descendant and he was now at his peak.
"Men, formation!"
Fu Mei shouted and the Fuxi celestial beings behind him immediately formed a massive formation.
Meanwhile, with one last swing, Feng Zhen's head fell onto the ground, the monarch blood gushed out insanely and rained down like a waterfall!
And with that, Zhong Yue trembled vigorously for a second as he felt the Daos in him reach the peak. The barrier between him and the next level was no more as he ascended to a True Deity!
With the monarch dead, he became a True Deity!
Feng Zhen's head had granted Zhong Yue the chance to enter the next level!
Then, Zhong Yue lowered his head and stood aside with his saber sheathed.
"Execution completed. The sinner is dead."
Like a real executioner, Zhong Yue announced it with a rumbling voice.
After some time, every drop of Feng Zhen's blood finally flowed out from his body, the ancient monarch level Yuan Shen's Qi drained out, and the Daos writhed as his body began to rot.
With a kick, Zhong Yue kicked this headless body into the seals and Feng Zhen's body was grinded into pieces along with his Yuan Shen!
On the other side, Hundun Yu meticulously recorded down everything that had transpired.
The Mengchong Warship then turned around before proceeding to sail deep into the seals.
With a humphed, Fu Mei's voice rumbled across the skies, "You are not Xiao Wuji! You little brat! Who are you? Who is that standing behind you? Are you brave enough to reveal yourself?"
On the warship, Zhong Yue turned around, a cheerful smile split across his face, "Xian Tian Palace's Yi Feng, Left King Yi serving Imperial Emperor Xian Tian. I am the one everyone knows as Mister Yi! Greetings, old ancestor Fu Mei."
"Yi Feng? King Yi? Mister Yi?"
Fu Mei's eyes twitched as he nodded, "I'll remember this name deep in my heart, along with your name will be Imperial Emperor Xian Tian's name. One day, I will return this humiliation to you!"
Zhong Yue smiled, waved the innate divine saber before plunging it into the light wheels spinning behind his head and said calmly, "I suppose there is no need for that as I will come to you! Wash your neck properly so that it will not dirty my saber when the time comes."
