Chapter 7 - Protecting Ling Yue To The Death

It was true but it was simply inconceivable that he would actually perish just like that. After all every genius out there possess their sort of charisma. Ling Feng's name and deeds as a terrifying prince of the Divine Thunder Emperor was known in every nook and cranny of the Azure Thunder Continent.

One could not simply imagine the deterrent it would cause out there once the news of Ling Feng's death spread out. This meant that the last descendant to the throne of the Divine Thunder Emperor had fallen.

"At last, this Ling Feng despite his unyielding obstinacy perished to the Heavenly Tribulation" Saint King Huo Yang consoled mockingly.

"This would be the last bullet to tear through the defence of the Azure Thunder Continent. Their hero died pitifully in his Heavenly Tribulation. Even the heavens negate his ceaseless obstinacy and arrogance haha!" Saint King Jin Yu scoffed with an indifferent look.

"Too bad all his treasures especially the Earth Vanquishing Wheel are gone with him"

"That's exactly what I thought of as well... But in that case, he saved us unnecessary worry. Now we've succeeded with the Moon Princess in our hands and the formation was unnecessary"

"He isn't worth using our legendary Five Elemental Deity Extermination Formation if he can't just pass a mere Sacred Heavenly Tribulation"

"It's his fate for being unyielding to the Lord Dark Sovereign. Anyone who remains stubborn before Lord Dark Sovereign would die without a corpse haha!"

The Saint Kings scorned after Ling Feng 's death as their brazen laughter filled the air.

Ling Yue's face was calm but her gaze was still, as dead as a door. Her look was terrifyingly calm but it was the sort of calmness on a person close to the grave.

Tian Wei on the other hand was quite uncomfortable as she had a bad premonition on Ling Feng's death. Her look was solemn as she could sense a cold gaze but the owner of such deathly might couldn't be seen around.

Looking at the extremely cold and indifferent expression on Ling Yue's eyes, she sighed pitifully.

Which teenager would accept such in a short time?

She had lost her Master and family to one man... The Dark Sovereign. Although she didn't deserve all this, it couldn't be helped as this world was too cruel. The strong were the true heroes in the end while the weak have no defense on the opinions of others on them.

Ling Feng was a typical example of this sort of situation. His heroic obstinacy to defend the honor of the Divine Thunder Emperor was applaudable, but where had it landed him...

He completely left the face of the earth without a corpse to his existence. He died in his Heavenly Tribulation and this was quite shaming to a genius like himself.

"No matter what... Ling Feng deserves better and the Little Princess as well" Tian Wei muttered softly. While the five Saint Kings were filling blissful for Ling Feng's death, she swung her sleeves and headed for Ling Yue.

Her intent was clear, she would rather willingly escort Ling Yue to preserve her life as the last royal descendant. If Ling Yue were to fall into the hands of the Five Elemental Saint Kings' quintet party, it would be a great luck for her to keep her life.

"Uh..."

Watching Tian Wei heading for Ling Yue'"s direction caused suspicion in the eyes of the five Saint Kings. They had ceased their cheerfulness and their expressions turned serious as they landed pressuring gazes at Tian Wei. With gritted teeth, Tian Wei wriggled to let go of their suppression.

" Tian Wei... What do you think you are up to? Leave that lass and get out of there" Saint King Shui Ling thundered with a cold look.

"No... I'm taking Yue'er with me... You don't have to take her as I can do so myself hmph" Tian Wei retorted coldly despite the spirit repressing force. She wouldn't back down even in death as it was the last shred of dignity she could spare for Ling Feng.

"I heard that you and Ling Feng got together quite well back then. I thought it was all a facade before... But it doesn't seem so anymore. Tian Wei, you'd rather protect the traitor of the Lord Dark Sovereign, than to wholly accept his precepts" Saint King Mu Zhao pressed on coldly as he infused pressure in his voice. The might of a Saint King was unleashed causing ripples in space.

"King Mu... What do you mean by that? I only wish to escort Ling Yue myself. Since when did I negate the Lord's will" Tian Wei voiced out indifferently, the thousands of flower petals fluttered brilliantly. But this alone could not resist the Saint Kings' pressure forcing a trickle of blood to seep from her lips.

"Good... Such good love even I feel jealous... Ling Feng left you to his death, I don't mind sending you to meet him in hell haha!" Saint King Jin Yu cackled hoarsely as he flicked his finger in her direction.

WHOOSH!

A three foot long golden sword rushed from his flicked finger and aimed in Tian Wei's direction.

" King Jin... What is the meaning of this?... How dare you attack me?" Tian Wei unleashed a holy sword immediately and her hands drew a few seals. Thousands of scarlet petals surrounded her as she obstructed the path to Ling Yue. She was determined to forcefully take this attack head on even if it meant her death.

BOOM!

PFFT!

A suspended blood clot appeared in the air as a figure was flung thousands of li away.

Tian Wei reappeared limp on one of the mountain peaks of the Enlightened Saint Peak. Her face was pale and her palm was extremely bloodied and it even shivered as she held onto the holy sword.

The metallic saint laws released by Saint King Jin Yu inflicted more injuries on her innards. Her current state could not even be described as pitiful... it was tragic!
