Lord Xue Ying

Even the experienced Xing Pavilion Master from the ‘Heaven’s Will Pavilion’ who had been recording the whole process of battle looked out to the distance. He felt his throat becoming dry. He mumbled to himself: “One technique is sufficient to injure Devil Heart Cultist Master heavily. Three techniques to shatter the body of Devil Heart Cultist Master. It seems that he is really a Middle Stage Ascendant God Emperor and is comparable to a Late Stage God Emperor.”

What did having the combat strength of a Late Stage God Emperor mean?

The group of experts in High Mountain City all understood it. Just like that City Master of ‘Eastern Wood City’ who had a noble identity, it was because he was a Late Stage God Emperor. Previously, Imperial Wind High Mountain attempted to marry his daughter to the Ninth Prince of Eastern Wood City. Even though they gifted many presents and also did it through several other high-level connections in Eastern Wood City to seek the help of ‘Eastern Wood City Master’, in reality, the emissary team sent out from High Mountain City was not qualified to even meet the Eastern Wood City Master!

Even across the entire Divine Realm, a Late Stage God Emperor would usually be an overlord of a territory! Even the three great royal clans treated them with respect!

‘A Middle Stage Ascendant God Emperor has the combat strength of a Late Stage God Emperor. He could even suppress Old Thief Devil Heart who ranks in the God Emperor Ranking List savagely with three moves!’ Imperial Wind High Mountain felt his heart trembling.

Old Thief Devil Heart was ranked in the top 1,000 across the entire Divine Realm.

Yet he was beaten savagely in three moves!

One could see how frightening Tutor Flying Snow was!

‘This is a great opportunity! A great opportunity! My daughter Qing Yin could actually become the disciple of such an expert. He even saved my entire Imperial Wind Clan because of this.’ Imperial Wind High Mountain looked towards his daughter, Imperial Wind Qing Yin.

The brothers Imperial Wind Lei and Imperial Wind Jin could not help but look at their little sister. The two of them felt envious, and happy for their sister at the same time.

“Strength of a Late Stage God Emperor?”

“Heavens!”

“Such an expert actually lives in seclusion within this small little High Mountain City of ours?”

Various experts were startled.

They could only look up to such experts since any Late Stage God Emperor was considered a transcendental expert in any location within the Divine Realm.

“I wonder if Senior Flying Snow could kill that Devil Heart Cultist Master or not.” Many experts were casting their gaze in the direction where both Devil Heart Cultist Master and Xue Ying rushed towards, far out into the Great Wilderness. These experts could not see the other two. They were honestly too quick.

“Hu hu hu––”

The wind whistled.

Devil Heart Cultist Master was currently flying at a frightening speed. His figure left behind a bright radiance of green light. Currently, he was completely recovered. Of course, this was only on the surface since replenishing his life force took an incredibly long amount of time.

‘The treasure bestowed by Valley Master has boosted my speed to a stage where most Late Stage God Emperors can’t reach up to me. It is also much faster than that God Emperor Flying Snow.’ Devil Heart Cultist Master looked backwards. At least, he could not see the other party with his naked eyes. But he did not dare to slow down and remained flying at top speed ahead. His priority now was to put as much distance as he could between him and Xue Ying.

He continued flying at this top speed for the time taken to brew a cup of tea before the green luminance covering his body dissipate.

Devil Heart Cultist Master looked at the branch strip in his hand. This branch strip was currently crumbling apart. The energy of this treasure had been completely consumed.

‘After flying for so long, I should have hurled him far behind.’ Even though Devil Heart Cultist Master had this thinking, he still did his best to fly ahead. He did not bring out his battleship and other treasures. Even though he did not have to control these flying items, their speed was not as fast as his current speed.

…

In the Great Wilderness.

Xue Ying had already grasped control over his fleshy body, causing the particles of his body to transform and recover back to the original stable form of the Chaotic Origin Refinement Body. He was currently resting on a piece of rock within the Great Wilderness drinking a flask of wine.

He would not be so foolish to chase after the other party since he was running away at such high speed. How tired would that be!

‘Mn, his speed has slowed. It seems the energy of his treasure should have been used up.’ Xue Ying relied on his tracing technique to sense an approximate position where Devil Heart Cultist Master was. After all, the current karmic ties between both parties were huge.

‘I shall wait a little longer. It would take quite a bit of time for me to chase up to him using my Void Devil Insect Movement Technique.’ Xue Ying estimated the amount of time needed. In the meantime, he continued drinking.

‘It should be about time.’

‘Time to go.’

Xue Ying flipped his hand and kept the flask of wine. His arms became thick, and layers of black membrane started covering his arms. His aura once again became wild and unstable. Extending his right hand, a black spear appeared.

“Si––”

A black crack formed by the side. With a flash, Xue Ying entered through this crack.

Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique!

Even though Devil Heart Cultist Master was running with all his might, in reality, the distance between both parties were not that far since the other party was just flying! Using the Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique that could allow him to reach any position in the Divine Realm was really using a butcher’s knife to kill a chicken! Xue Ying was primarily too lazy to use his Void Devil Insect Movement Technique to chase after the other party.

“Si.” From the black crack, Xue Ying appeared. Only once he sensed where Devil Heart Cultist Master was did he casually execute the Void Devil Insect Body Technique and chase after the other party.

Just about ten breaths of time later.

The escaping Devil Heart Cultist Master looked behind to see a miniature figure chasing him with terror. That was God Emperor Flying Snow who wielded a spear!

‘He has actually reached me?’ Devil Heart Cultist Master panicked, ‘I hurled him so far behind yet he did not let me off and has continued chasing me until now?’

No choice.

Xue Ying had long reached the final realm of the Dao of Void. His attainments in the Dao of Soul had also reached an unfathomable stage. Furthermore, his soul had once been nourished with a droplet of the heart blood of Myriad Tentacles Dragon Mother. When he was a level two Cosmos God, Emperor Summer could not even trace him down, much less now. In this world, the only people who could trace down Xue Ying would most likely be the three creators of this Divine Realm, the Chaotic Origin experts.

“Sou sou sou––”

Even though Devil Heart Cultist Master was running with all his might, Xue Ying’s figure was reaching closer to him. That blurred figure was also becoming bigger in the vision of Devil Heart Cultist Master.

“You can’t escape from me.” Xue Ying said.

“God Emperor Flying Snow, I have no animosity or grievances with you. You also killed two of my God Emperors. How about we let things end here? I can swear that from now on, I’ll never go to the High Mountain City anymore, and neither would I take vengeance against the Imperial Wind Clan.” At the same time as he was escaping, Devil Heart Cultist Master transmitted over anxiously to Xue Ying, begging for mercy.

“No animosity or grievances?” Xue Ying shook his head, “Why do I remember the words you mentioned at High Mountain City, ‘that I, Devil Heart, will remember this enmity’?”

Devil Heart Cultist Master felt bitter.

How had the times changed!

“God Emperor Flying Snow, please show some mercy and spare my life! Tell me what you want me to do? I’ll definitely promise you.” Devil Heart Cultist Master anxiously asked for mercy! Because Xue Ying was getting very close to him.

And in return, Xue Ying pierced his spear out emotionlessly.

When this spear struck out.

The surrounding void was like a bubble that wrapped around Devil Heart Cultist Master. It rapidly collapsed until it became a single black point. Devil Heart Cultist Master shrunk along with this bubble. He was both furious and in despair. Why, why would he be so unlucky? Why would God Emperor Flying Snow choose not to spare his life?

…

Just a few moves later.

Devil Heart Cultist Master was shattered, turning into powder amidst the chaotic space. He left behind just some treasures which Xue Ying collected.

“Hmph.” Xue Ying coldly snorted. Why did he continue chasing after Devil Heart Cultist Master and did not show any mercy for the other party?

Because he could sense how heavy the karmic ties were on Devil Heart Cultist Master. They were filled with so much grievances! Facing this huge devil, Xue Ying would naturally not show any mercy! Devil Heart Cultist Master had even called himself ‘Devil Heart’. He did things without showing mercy or following any order. After becoming enemies with Imperial Wind High Mountain, Devil Heart Cultist Master planned on wiping out the Imperial Wind Clan! One could see his personality from this.

‘Now that I have eliminated the commander of the Devil Heart Cult and two other God Emperors, with three other escaping, I should be done with the cleaning up.’ Xue Ying chuckled. He then began his journey back home.

He did not continue chasing after the other three.

Given his Great Destruction Realm Teleportation Technique, Xue Ying could easily conceal and alter his aura, preventing the enemies from tracing him down. It would be an easy task for him to chase after and kill the three God Emperors. But Xue Ying’s nature made it such that he could not tolerate those huge devils. As for ordinary cultivators, he would be too lazy to participate in their life and death battles.

Of the commander and five God Emperors in the Devil Heart Cult!

Those that could be considered as huge devils included only the ‘Devil Heart Cultist Master’ and that vicious ‘God Emperor Ghost Flame’. That time when Xue Ying first killed ‘God Emperor Piercing Wind’ was due to the sinister attitude of God Emperor Piercing Wind. The other party wanted to deal against the weakest Imperial Wind Qing Yin, which was why Xue Ying chose to eliminate him first. After that, he chose to kill God Emperor Ghost Flame primarily due to the huge karmic grievances tying his body. It was even denser than the karmic ties surrounding Devil Heart Cultist Master. Xue Ying naturally did not show any mercy.

As for the three that escaped… they were considered relatively ordinary in the Divine Realm, and did not show any personality of casually massacring others. Instead, they were merely embroiled in ordinary battles.

Actually, in this Divine Realm, due to how vast the Great Wilderness was, most people would live their lives within the cities. Very few massacres would occur as a result!

And those three God Emperors that escaped did not know that the reason they could live was because their karmic grievances did not reach a limit that Xue Ying could not tolerate.

******

High Mountain City.

Finally, a blurred figure flew over.

The residence of Imperial Wind Clan had already gathered a huge number of experts. Even Xing Pavilion Master from the Heaven’s Will Pavilion and God Monarch Chuang Qing from the branch team of Mysterious Fire Army had arrived. They were anxiously awaiting for Xue Ying. The moment they saw the white-robed figure appearing, all of them felt their hearts trembling and excitement coursing through their bodies. After all, this was someone with a combat strength of a Late Stage God Emperor.

“Hu.”

Xue Ying descended.

“God Emperor Flying Snow.”

“Senior Flying Snow.”

“Tutor Flying Snow.”

Everyone immediately greeted him with great respect.

Xue Ying swept his gaze across and nodded: “God Emperor Devil Heart has been killed by me!”

At present, Imperial Wind High Mountain, Xing Pavilion Master and others felt their hearts tightening. Even though they attempted to trace down the karma of the other party and realized they could not sense Devil Heart Cultist Master and reckoned that the other party had died, hearing the words from Xue Ying made their hearts heavy. That was ultimately an ultra-strong expert ranked in the God Emperor Ranking List, and he was killed just like that?

“Teacher.” Imperial Wind Qing Yin came over and shouted.

Only when Xue Ying see his disciple did he smile. He chuckled: “Qing Yin, this matter has been settled so you don’t have to worry so much any longer.”

The surrounding people stared at Imperial Wind Qing Yin with envy. They could feel that this Ascendant God Emperor clearly treated his disciple Imperial Wind Qing Yin differently. He should have acted this time all because of this disciple.

“Senior Flying Snow.” Imperial Wind High Mountain thickened his face and said, “My Imperial Wind Clan is unable to return the favor for senior’s act of saving grace.”

“Alright.” Xue Ying cut his words, “I still have some matters to settle and won’t be accompanying you guys any longer. Qing Yin, follow me.”

“Yes, Teacher.” Imperial Wind Qing Yin obediently acknowledged.

Xue Ying turned around and left.

He did not have any idle time to accompany this group of people.

“This, this is truly a huge backing!” Imperial Wind High Mountain watched as Xue Ying left with his daughter, Imperial Wind Qing Yin. He could not help but feel excited.

This was definitely a backing he had to grab on!

Never had he, Imperial Wind High Mountain, have the opportunity to interact with such a huge backing!

And of the surrounding experts, Xing Pavilion Master held onto his book and continued recording: “After the karmic ties of Devil Heart Cultist Master disappeared, God Emperor Flying Snow flew back from the Great Wilderness, proclaiming that God Emperor Devil Heart has been killed by him.” This news was rapidly reported upwards. Xing Pavilion Master felt stirred and this incident would definitely cause a change in the ‘God Emperor Ranking List’!
