Chapter 33
The area within a few miles of the city trembled, with the city as its center. Space could be seen rippling, and the wind blew as lightning flashed in the sky.
The king was angry.
Patriarch Hua could not help but smirk, insulting a soul formation expert again and again. Was he not seeking death? Did that kid think his life was too long?
Even Yun Tianhu knew at this moment that he had crossed a line. The majesty of a king cannot be violated. What does it mean to be a king? A king was the title given to any cultivator who achieved the soul formation realm. At this realm, one forms a domain by stealing a part of space and making it their territory, governing the rules within.
How many could be strong enough to steal a part of space from the heavens?
They were the kings of their domains. Their rules were inviolable.
At the center of the storm, his domain covered an area of 1 km. Everything within that space operated according to his will.
Just as he lifted his hands up and was about to make a move, a tear appeared in space.
It was as though space was tangible, as a long line manifested and opened.
A pulling force came from the passage that was formed. The hole in space was dark and boundless, as if it had no end.
At this moment, two figures appeared from within the hole.
They were a male and a female, radiating a strong demonic aura.
They stood in the sky, as if sensing something. And right after they arrived, not even a breath's time passed when another crack appeared in space again.
"Another one? What the hell is going on here?" Yun Tianhu was speechless and scared. He knew the strength required to tear space. If these mighty figures started fighting here, none of the small ants like themselves would survive.
As the space opened, two figures walked out. One had purple hair and appeared rather young. He wore armor, and lightning could be seen flickering in his eyes from time to time.
The other was an old man with long hair and a long goatee. He carried a long horse tail whisk and was adorned in a green robe. As he walked, the air around him became very calm, and all beings around him seemed to achieve peace.
"Thunder Emperor, Daoist Master Calmsea," Yun Tianhu shouted in his heart as he looked at the figures that appeared in the sky.
He had only seen their portraits before and never thought he would meet them in this life. How many levels of cultivation were there between him and them?
They were like the clouds in the sky, and he was like the mud on the earth.
As these two figures appeared, the first to speak was the Thunder Emperor. "Leave," he said, his domineering aura evident. This word was short, but it carried the weight of an order that should be obeyed, or there would be consequences.
Daoist Master Calmsea only smiled and shook his head, saying to himself, "This idiot still has no tact. Is this any way to talk to your peers?"
He knew he had to say something before the Thunder Emperor started a fight.
From his observations, these two were not here to start a fight, so he spoke. "Fellow Daoist, what brings you all the way here from the Demon Domain?"
The other figures, whose expressions had already changed, released their frowns after hearing Calmsea speak.
"We sensed the aura of our clansmen, and it came from this city, so we came to check it out. We will only search this city, and if it's not there, we will immediately retreat."
"Very well," Calmsea nodded and stopped asking questions. The other two closed their eyes and swept their demonic sense over the entire city, combing through every nook and cranny.
From the beginning until now, these four people had completely ignored everyone else here.
The soul formation expert who was flying in the sky had long fallen down.
After a few breaths of time, the two people turned and stared at each other, then waved their hands forward. As they did, space tore apart, revealing a dark passageway.
They jumped in and immediately disappeared, and the spatial tear behind them slowly closed up after their departure.
After they left, the two new people who had appeared later turned their eyes towards the people in black, who were now all prostrating on the ground. Coldness could be seen in their eyes.
At this moment, Yun Tianhu flew up and bowed in the sky. "Disciple Yun Tianhu pays his respects to the Emperors." Hearing this, the two men nodded and asked him what had happened and why these people had surrounded the city.
He methodically explained everything that had happened—from the auction to him killing Granny Hua—and explained the war and what had happened today.
Hearing this, the Emperors were surprised. What could actually givethese ants the courage to challenge a domain overlord like themselves? It was unheard of.
"It appears we have been too quiet for a long period of time, allowing people to have the guts to openly surround and attempt to kill our disciples," Patriarch Hua was about to beg for mercy when lightning and thunder descended from above, striking all of them and obliterating them in an instant.
They had been blown to oblivion, leaving nothing and no trace behind. Only one person was left alive, and it was the soul formation expert who had now been sealed and taken back by the two elders to be interrogated. They waved their hands, and space opened as they disappeared without a trace.
Yun Tianhu still stood there, shocked. No matter how many times he saw it, he would still be surprised. He turned and asked the people to go about their daily affairs before returning to his residence.
But the city was not meant to be calm for the rest of the day, as talk of what happened swept through the city and spread throughout the Serenecloud region, eventually reaching all regions within the Sky Covering Domain.
All those who held power, or even those who didn't, had heard about this, bringing about no small shock to them.
