Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

Chapter 1280: Chapter 1266 Arrival [Fifth Update]

"Qingtian Realm, I have returned!"

The voice did not just echo across the heavens.

It resounded in the mind of every living being in the Qingtian Realm.

For reasons unknown...

Even those living creatures far away in the Central Continent, Beizhou, Western Province, Southern State, and Dongzhou felt a sense of dread upon hearing this voice.

Countless beasts with the keenest senses cowered on the ground, trembling in fear.

"Who is that? Why shout in the middle of the night?"

In a small town in Dongzhou, someone was awakened from sleep and muttered in a daze.

Then...

Boom!

That person’s head suddenly exploded.

Turning into a headless corpse, their body still got out of bed on its own, kneeling straight at the window, facing the extreme southern direction.

As if to apologize for what they had just said.

Western Province.

A Buddha was startled by the voice, feeling restless, forced to sit cross-legged on his cushion, chanting a mantra: "Amitabha, Bodhisattva Paramita..."

He tried to use the Heart Sutra to calm the unrest in his heart. noveldrama

To prevent himself from worshipping the owner of that voice.

But in the next second...

Boom!

The monk’s head suddenly exploded.

Blood splattered all over the scriptures in front of him, and the headless corpse likewise turned towards the direction of the extreme south, in a kneeling posture.

Inside the great hall.

The statue of Buddha also cracked violently, revealing hideous fissures.

In the end, the entire temple collapsed with a roar.

At the same time.

Battlefields beyond the realms.

In a secret domain.

A bald figure alternated between an aura of solemnity and an aura of sinister dread.

Both righteous and evil.

Both Buddha and demon!

If Xiao Yi were here, he would definitely recognize the person as Monk Dao Yun, the Buddhist prodigy he once defeated.

However, now...

Monk Dao Yun was drenched in blood, looking furiously at the figure cloaked in black before him, letting out an angry roar: "Xiao Tianjiao, how dare you do this? How could you do this to me? If it weren’t for me, you’d have been killed by Xiao Yi long ago, reduced to dust. You dare treat me like this?"

"Humph!"

A cold snort shook the void, stirring violent winds that blew off the cloak to reveal Xiao Tianjiao, who had been slain by Xiao Yi but later rescued by Monk Dao Yun and brought to the battlefields beyond the realms.

Xiao Tianjiao looked down coldly at Monk Dao Yun.

Upon hearing Xiao Yi’s name, Xiao Tianjiao’s eyes flashed with intense murderous intent and hatred, saying sinisterly: "I, Xiao Tianjiao, am a supreme prodigy, the strongest genius in the world, yet all these years I have been under your vile control. Now that I have rid myself of your control, why shouldn’t I kill you?"

"You, you can’t... Xiao Tianjiao, I, I can support you. Aren’t you seeking revenge against Xiao Yi? He has now become incredibly powerful; even the future Buddha Mother had to come to the battlefields beyond the realms because of him. You alone are no match for him, but I can help you!"

Dao Yun was utterly disheveled, with broken meridian channels all over, pleading desperately, "Xiao Tianjiao, no, Master, I am willing to become your servant. With both of us holding half of this elder’s legacy, two swords combined, Xiao Yi will surely not be our opponent!"

"Foolishness!"

Xiao Tianjiao shook his head, grinning cruelly, "Precisely because we each hold half of the legacy, I must kill you! Once I kill you, I can obtain the entire legacy, fully comprehend it, and transcend to become a supreme existence... When that time comes, who in the Qingtian Realm will be my equal? Do I still need you to help me avenge Xiao Yi? Dao Yun, to thank you for saving my life once, I won’t let you die too painfully..."

"No, no..."

Dao Yun shouted in despair.

Unable to stop Xiao Tianjiao in the slightest.

Xiao Tianjiao opened his mouth wide, a sharp fang growing instantly, biting into Dao Yun’s neck with a poof.

Whoosh!

In an instant...

Dao Yun was turned into a dried corpse.

With a satisfied expression, Xiao Tianjiao wiped the blood from his mouth, reveling in the rampaging power within himself, having already reached the realm of a Supreme Venerable, his gaze drifting beyond the secret domain: "Xiao Yi, our next meeting is not far off!"

......

Far south.

The enormous bloody glow, like a gigantic bubble, continued to swell; everything it touched was surrounded by a deathly aura.

Stripping away all signs of life.

Around the Spirit Lake.

The Southern State’s beings enveloped by God Devouring Ants perished instantly, losing billions of lives, leaving only dry corpses to turn into dust with the wind, disappearing into the void.

Gulp!

The Changsheng Sect Leader swallowed hard, unable to touch the bloody bubble, shouting, "Hall Master, I am the Changsheng Sect Leader; I am your servant!"

"Hmm?"

From within the bubble came a cold and indifferent voice, "Since you are my servant, and I am at a weak moment, then offer your life to nourish me!"

"What?"

The Changsheng Sect Leader’s face changed drastically as the bloody glow formed a massive hand, binding him tightly, pulling him into the bloody bubble, scaring him to shout, "Hall Master, no, absolutely not... I am your most loyal servant; I intended to unseal you with Siling Feng... yes, it’s that Xiao Yi who has been obstructing us; you should devour him, not me..."

"Oh? That little one? No wonder there’s a presence of my Siling Clan on him, even Siling Feng died at his hands..."

The voice of the Death Hall Master inside the bubble slowly continued, then changed, "Yet, I find his aura annoying, so I’ll let him go for now. But after I devour you, we’ll see. A loyal servant must always be ready to sacrifice for their master, my servant, embrace your master!"

"No..."

The Changsheng Sect Leader was filled with despair and terror, gradually swallowed by the bloody bubble.

He never imagined that the effort he made to rescue the Death Hall Master would ultimately lead to his death.

Had he known...

The Changsheng Sect Leader would likely never have ventured to rescue the Death Hall Master!

Yet...

There is no regret medicine in this world.

His regret now is too late!

Xiao Yi hovered in the air, watching the bloody bubble which had devoured the Changsheng Sect Leader shrink continuously. His mind was tense to the extreme. He knew that when the bloody bubble vanished, that is when the sealed Death Hall Master would be truly free.

This was one of the most terrifying and powerful existences from the Ancient Times, the master of the Death Hall among the nine halls of Changsheng!

Facing such existence, does he truly have the strength to fight?

Yet...

Thinking of his family, kin, friends behind him... and those endless living beings in Qingtian Realm, Xiao Yi clenched his fists tightly, his expression resolute: "No matter how strong you are, even if I have to sacrifice my life, I absolutely cannot let you leave here..."
