Zhou Xuzi felt his whole body had gone cold.
If what Yun Che said was really the truth, he must be stopped at all costs. No matter what, they cannot let a devil like him achieve the True God Realm!
"God Emperor!" The old man leading the divine masters behind him looked at the kneeling Zhou Xuzi, and his eyes widened, an expression of disbelief and confusion clouded his face.
"Tai Yu! Kill him! Kill this devil, hurry!" Zhou Xuzi didn't beat around the bush.
He was scared.
He was afraid.
For the first time in his life, he felt genuine terror.
Even when he was fighting with the Devil Queen in the Northern Divine Region, he did not feel this kind of terror like the one he was feeling right now.
It was like thousands of ants were crawling over his whole body, making him feel numb.
"What?!"
"Don't question anything! AS THE LEADER OF ETERNAL HEAVEN GOD REALM, I ORDER EVERYONE TO KILL THIS DEVIL THIS INSTANT!"
Tai Yu's eyes widened.
He was confused, but that confusion did not disturb his judgment.
From the expression of Zhou Xuzi, he instantly understood the importance of this matter. So without delaying a second, he looked towards the smiling Yun Che and attacked.
He did not hold back and released the power of a peak Divine Master instantly.
His punch traveled through space and reached the defenseless Yun Che, hitting him. A loud explosion occurred, shaking the whole Flame God Realm, making it look like it would explode at any moment.
As for Yun Che, his whole body simply burst into blood, scattering in the wind.
Seeing this, Tai Yu frowned.
He couldn't understand why Zhou Xuzi wanted him to kill a Divine Soul Realm kid so badly, but since he was dead, he didn't care about the matter any longer and looked towards Zhou Xuzi.
"No, it's not right!" Zhou Xuzi screamed. "It's not right!"
"God Emperor, what happened? Why did you want me to kill that kid? What's not right?"
"It's not right… He is not dead!"
Zhou Xuzi didn't believe Yun Che would die so easily. If that was the case, they would have killed him themselves. Something was wrong; something definitely was wrong.
The more Zhou Xuzi thought about it, the heavier his heart felt.
He frantically looked around but could not find any existence of Yun Che anywhere. No matter where he looked, he couldn't find him.
Yet, the feeling of terror only increased with each passing second.
"God Emperor!" Looking at the horrified expression of Zhou Xuzi, Tai Yu shouted and clenched Zhou Xuzi's shoulders. "Are you alright?!"
"Quiet! I told you to kill that devil; what are you doing?!"
"I killed him—"
"You did not! You think that devil would die so easily?! He killed the Southern Sea God Emperor! How can someone who killed the Southern Sea God Emperor die so easily!?"
"What?!" Tai Yu's eyes widened. "Southern Sea God Emperor… was killed by that kid?"
"That's right! So hurry up and look, find that kid! We must kill him at all cost, or the Primal Chaos would be engulfed in utter terror under his rule!"
"Geez, I am not that bad… I advocate peace all the time too."
Tai Yu's and Zhou Xuzi's eyes widened.
Both of them looked upward and saw an ethereal form of Yun Che hovering there.
It did not have any substance. It looked like… a soul.
"How so?!"
Yun Che smiled in his soul form.
"I would like to reply, but the time is over." Yun Che looked at the sky that had darkened, covered in thick clouds, making it impossible for light to penetrate it. "Heaven is angry."
"Heavenly Tribulation!?" Tai Yu and Zhou Xuzi shouted at the same time. "This… This… What the hell is this?! What kind of Heavenly Tribulation is this!?"
An invisible suppression covered the whole Eastern Divine Region. The suppression came from the clouds. The suppression was so strong that even Tai Yu and Zhou Xuzi felt like ants in front of it.
"Hahaha! Now, come! Kill me! Shower me with your power!" Yun Che opened his arms as if welcoming the divine judgment and laughed loudly.
"Kill him!" Zhou Xuzi shouted.
"Shit!" Tai Yu ignored him and picked up Zhou Xuzi to run away. He had never seen heaven in such anger. It looked like heaven wanted to destroy the whole Primal Chaos itself.
Tai Yu could feel his blood going cold from the suppression he felt from Heaven. He knew if they did not run away right now, they would die from the aftermath of the Heavenly Tribulation itself.
"Retreat! Retreat! Leave this star realm! Hurry!" Tai Yu shouted toward the other Eternal Heaven Guardians, but soon a wave of helplessness washed over his whole body.
"I-Impossible… What is this barrier…?" Tai Yu found out that everyone was trapped inside a barrier, unable to move out from it.
Their strength did not matter, as the barrier was constricted to hold Heaven itself! With their meager strength, it was impossible to break through it!
How can their strength be compared to the barrier to hold Heaven when they were afraid of the anger of Heaven itself?
"It's coming!" Zhou Xuzi shouted.
The next moment, a thick purple lightning bolt descended. In the blink of an eye, it struck the ethereal form of the laughing Yun Che.
But it was the start, as the moment the lightning produced it vanished, two more heavenly thunder descended and hit Yun Che once again.
Second stage, third stage, fourth stage, fifth stage, sixth stage... with each stage, the number of lightning bolts doubled, and so did their strength.
Tai Yu and Zhou Xuzi looked at the heavens as the lightning turned from purple to scarlet with despair on their faces.
They were watching history in the making, yet there were no happy expressions on their faces, only horror and fear.
"I-it's coming... the seventh stage..."
The moment Tai Yu's voice fell, the scarlet lightning started to descend. The whole world lost the sound and light, and Yun Che had become the center of attention.
Like a sun, the place where Yun Che hovered shone with light bright enough to blind everyone.
"The eight stage... ninth... what the hell is that!?" In the sky, it seemed that heaven was angry toward the imbecile who didn't die. And the anger was reflected in its attack as the lightning in the sky turned white. It condensed, condensed, condensed... before a huge white lightning dragon formed. "It's over..." Zhou Xuzi's eyes lost their luster as he looked at the white lightning dragon. It wasn't aimed at them, but he could feel the utter helplessness staring at it. The strength that the white lightning dragon held made even the God Emperor feel like insects. "Finally... making me wait with all those party tricks, I was getting bored." "Please kill him... Please kill him..." Zhou Xuzi prayed that this strike would kill Yun Che, otherwise, it looked like they would be the ones to die. But when the lightning dragon fell, he felt like someone had gripped his heart. Instead of hitting Yun Che, the lightning dragon started to circle around him before it formed a cocoon made up of heavenly lightning with Yun Che inside. The next moment, the world seemed to halt itself. ... pat (+15): patr eon.com/meatball_chan (Saturday&Sunday Break) discord: https://discord.gg/denoffanfics
