Qi Zongwen's words hung in the air, a fragile shield against the storm of Yun Lintian's power. But before the last syllable had even faded, a blinding light erupted from Yun Lintian's hand. It moved with a speed that defied comprehension, a speed that made a mockery of time and space.
BOOM!!
Qi Zongwen, despite being the Golden Qilin Emperor, despite his centuries of cultivation, despite his mastery over the laws of the universe, was caught completely off guard. He had no time to react, no time to defend, no time to even comprehend what was happening.
The light struck the three Chaos Knights — Qi Lang, Qi Han, and Qi Jue, followed by a deafening explosion.
The next moment, they were gone. Not dead, not disintegrated, but utterly annihilated. Their bodies, their souls, their very existence, were reduced to nothingness, as if they had never been.
