Human Clan Defender-Chapter 730 - s The Holy Slaying Blade, Defeating the Emperor (Four-in-One, Seeking Monthly Tickets)_5

Terrifying!

At this moment, the Liang Emperor felt as if he had transformed into the Heaven and Earth Overlord himself. His originally clear black-and-white eyes were now suffused with a deep golden hue. Without a word, he struck out with a palm. The golden power transformed into a True Dragon soaring skyward, its sacred and majestic aura pressing down on the entire Capital City.

Seeing this, Shen Changqing took a step forward. He had no intention of wasting time. With a move of his right hand that rested on the hilt, the Grade One Dao Arms, the Holy Slaying Saber, abruptly unsheathed.

Grade One Divine Skills!

Heaven and Earth Slash!

His power converged, transforming into an utterly dazzling blade light that tore through the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the sky and the firmament trembled, as if this single slash would utterly annihilate everything before it.

In that instant, a great terror rose in the Liang Emperor's heart. That feeling left him no time to think further; all his power poured into the Jade Seal, slamming it hard toward the front.

BOOM—

The two forces collided.

The Great Liang Imperial Seal, passed down for a thousand years, seemed unable to withstand that destructive power. It cracked visibly before shattering with a BANG.

The onslaught didn't stop, continuing to slash towards what lay beyond.

The golden light was torn asunder.

Blood scattered across the sky.

The Liang Emperor's lofty figure, under the watchful eyes of all, fell from the void.

Throughout the Capital City, at this moment, all was deadly silent. Everyone watched as the Liang Emperor's body fell from the void, their faces filled with expressions of utter shock.

Defeated!

The Liang Emperor was defeated!

Just a moment ago, he was unmatched in momentum; in the next, he had fallen from the void. The change in the situation was so fast that they hadn't even had time to react. It wasn't until the Liang Emperor's figure had completely disappeared from sight that these people finally recovered from their shock.

"Our Emperor has been defeated!"

"Impossible! How could our Emperor be defeated!"

The people within the Capital City couldn't believe what they had just witnessed.

The Liang Emperor was defeated! This wasn't inconceivable. After all, who among the mighty can claim invincibility? Even the most powerful beings could fall. But the problem was, while they could accept defeat, being instantly killed was hard to swallow. The power the Liang Emperor had just unleashed could certainly shake the earth and sky, yet even with such might, Shen Changqing's single slash had cut him down from the void.

Such a gap was simply despairing.

The Liang Emperor's defeat merely served to highlight Shen Changqing's immense might. Everyone understood that after this battle, the name Shen Changqing would become unforgettable to the people of the Great Liang Capital.

「Inside the Imperial Palace.」

The Liang Emperor fell from the void. His imperial robe was dyed with blood, and his formidable Flesh was nearly annihilated.

"Your Majesty!"

The many ministers' complexions changed drastically.

Shen Changqing stepped forward. "You lost!" he said indifferently to the man before him.

Upon hearing this, the Liang Emperor fell silent.

Yes, he had lost. Even with the backing of Great Liang's fate, he was still no match.

The power of that blade still caused the Liang Emperor's heart to palpitate. If it hadn't been for the Jade Seal blocking most of the attack, if it hadn't been for Great Liang's fate absorbing the residual waves, if not for— It could be said that surviving was purely a stroke of immense luck. Otherwise, under that blade, he would have already perished.

After a long while, the Liang Emperor shook his head slightly. "A new generation replaces the old. Great Qin's Defender Envoy truly lives up to his reputation. Gu Xuanji made the right decision in keeping you in Great Qin before his demise. It's just a pity, a pity you are not a son of Great Liang!"

He truly felt regret. He had taken notice of Shen Changqing from the moment the latter first demonstrated his edge. For that reason, he had even gone so far as to send Beiming Wang to the South Nether Prefecture, hoping to recruit him. However, this plan did not succeed.

Now, in just a few short years, his opponent had grown to this point.

The power of that blade had completely exceeded the Liang Emperor's imagination. He was certain that he could not withstand that blade, and there were not many in the world who could. In other words, the man before him could now be considered the foremost among the Human Clan.

With such a powerhouse at its helm, it wasn't just that Great Qin had vast resources; even the weakest of factions could rise to prominence. Such was the terrifying nature of a Supreme Powerhouse.

Shen Changqing's expression remained calm. "The Liang Emperor's strength is not weak either. There are absolutely no more than three people in the world who can withstand that blade of mine. The Liang Emperor's ability to withstand it is quite evident."

Upon hearing that, the Liang Emperor gave a self-deprecating smile.

Barely avoiding being split by the blade—does that count as withstanding it? But then again, if it had been someone else, they might have already fallen outright in the face of that blade.

"Did Ran An also die under that blade?"

"No." Shen Changqing shook his head, then added, "He had already perished before I truly unsheathed my blade."

"I see!" The Liang Emperor sighed. Perished before the blade was even truly unsheathed. The so-called Saint Rank, in front of such a powerhouse, was nothing but a joke.

After a while, he seemed to come to a realization. Looking at the man before him, he asked, "Does Great Qin have any subsequent plans for Great Liang?"

"If Great Liang submits, I believe its situation will not be difficult. I can assure you of that," Shen Changqing said.

Upon hearing this sentence, the Liang Emperor's heart relaxed slightly. He did not doubt the truthfulness of Shen Changqing's words. With the latter's strength, not even the current Emperor Qin could dictate his actions. Similarly, Shen Changqing also had considerable influence within Great Qin.

"You must also be heading to Dayue."

"Of course. The Human Clan has been divided for too long. Now that a catastrophe is imminent, if the Human Clan wishes to contend, they cannot fight separately. Unification is inevitable."
