Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor

Hiss!

When their eyes fell on a Guard slumped in a chair, their faces immediately showed a trace of horror, and they couldn't help but draw in a sharp breath.

The Guard walking at the end, his eyes wide open, hair disheveled as if he had seen something unbelievable, most importantly, all his blood had vanished, and his entire body had turned into a withered corpse, shriveled beyond measure.

"I don't know which senior is there. I am Fu Sanqian, a Tributor of the royal family. As long as the senior is willing to let us go, the Hanfeng Empire's royal family will offer a great reward!"

Steward Fu took a deep breath, countless thoughts flashing through his mind, but in just a moment, he suppressed them. With just one look, he understood that the powerful entity in the shadows was not someone he could provoke. He could only silently pray that this entity would heed the Hanfeng Empire's royal name and let them leave. Otherwise, their fate today was sealed.

"Hehehe, Hanfeng Empire's royal family? I've killed countless people, but killing someone from the royal family, this will be a first!"

A sinister voice rang out, and immediately, a terrifying blood-colored vortex handprint extended from the sky. Its icy might felt like an Ancient Divine Mountain, pressing down towards the Guards below.

Plop plop plop...

Without any suspense, the Guards below didn't even have time to scream before their entire bodies were blasted into a mist of blood, countless sparks flying, blood raging.

Steward Fu's face was deathly pale. Now he understood that the entity in the shadows had no fear of the Hanfeng Empire's royal family at all.

The Second Prince and Princess Hanyue had never witnessed such scenes before. They instantly turned pale and knelt on the ground, vomiting uncontrollably.

"Senior, are you truly intent on wiping us out completely?"

Steward Fu's face was ashen. The Creature Blood Body was a half-step Life and Death Realm King, while he was only a Guiyuan Realm Martial Artist. The difference between them was too vast. With just a flick of the opponent's finger, he could easily be killed.

Bang!

The Creature Blood Body didn't speak, but his actions were his best response. A terrifying blood-colored giant palm descended from the sky, carrying an icy sharpness, instantly arriving above Steward Fu's head.

Bang!

"I thought I was wondering who it was; so it's you!"

A clear voice came from the void, from far to near, mysterious and unfathomable. Immediately, a blood-colored fist shadow tore out from the void, ripping apart the blood-colored palm print effortlessly.

"Who?"

The Creature Blood Body walked out of the void, staring around with a gloomy gaze while extending his soul power in all directions to find the attacker. However, his heart sank when he found nothing in this Yujing Mountain Range.

At this moment, Steward Fu, the Second Prince, and Princess Hanyue were all trembling in fear as they looked at the Creature Blood Body. They had seen many Demon Dao experts in the Celestial Realm, even the Sect Leader of the Nine Prisons Demon Sect from afar. But this blood-colored figure's aura was hundreds of times stronger than the Nine Prisons Demon Sect's Sect Leader.

"Stop looking, it's me!" 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

The entire void seemed to be torn apart by a pair of giant hands. Immediately, a young man wearing a blood-red robe stepped out from the void, his gaze sharp. Just standing there, it felt as if the entire world was revolving around him.

"I remember you. You once entered the Dark Tomb!"

The Creature Blood Body said coldly, his gaze falling on Chu Ming, his pupils shrinking. He did not sense any Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power from Chu Ming. This meant two things: either Chu Ming was just a mortal, or the gap between them was too vast for him to discern Chu Ming's depth.

He didn't need to think hard to know which it was. When Chu Ming escaped from him years ago, he was already a Guiyuan Realm Martial Artist. After four years, how could he be a mere mortal?

However, he still doubted that Chu Ming's strength had surpassed his own. His rapid cultivation to the peak of the half-step Life and Death Realm relied on absorbing human blood, a Demon Dao method. But Chu Ming had no such shortcuts.

"It seems your memory isn't bad. Killing an Elder of my Celestial Travel Sect only warrants one word: death!"

Chu Ming said coldly. If the Creature Blood Body had stayed hidden, Chu Ming would have almost forgotten this matter. Unfortunately, now, the Creature Blood Body was nothing more than an ant in his eyes.

Bang!

Chu Ming struck without hesitation, his hands slightly spread, a layer of blood enveloping the surroundings, instantly sealing the entire space and blocking Steward Fu, the Second Prince, and Princess Hanyue.

Bang!

Chu Ming's eyes deepened, like two whirling vortexes of reincarnation. Simultaneously, a surge of vital essence emanated from Chu Ming's eyes, mixed with an icy aura.

Splatter!

The Creature Blood Body's body exploded directly: flesh and blood splattered. Chu Ming felt something strange. Amidst the blood, he sensed no trace of vitality.

Watching the Creature Blood Body's explosion, both Steward Fu and the royal pair were terrified, staring at the calm young man in shock.

"So that's it!"

Chu Ming's eyes brightened, extending his right hand as the Creature Blood Body's remains burst, spewing countless droplets of blood. Ignoring them, his focus was on a blood-red pearl within the gory aftermath. Filled with turbulent blood essence, it seemed almost alive, furiously darting around in an attempt to escape the barrier.

Bang!

As Chu Ming reached for the Blood Pearl, a terrifying aura descended from the void, like a nine heavens deity. Numerous blood-tainted clouds amassed in the sky.

"Hmph!"

A cold snort resounded from the void. Immediately, a blood-colored hand extended, shattering the void, targeting the Blood Pearl.

"Courting death!"

Chu Ming snorted coldly, clenching his right hand, muscles bulging, gathering the Hidden Dragon Blood Formation Power. With a thunderous punch, he struck at the blood-colored hand, causing the sky to ripple with blood-red light.

Bang!

Blood-colored fists and hands collided, with terrifying blood light sweeping all around. In that moment, Steward Fu and the royal pair seized the chance to flee far away. The battle before them was far beyond their involvement. Even the residual impact was enough to kill them a thousand times over.

"As expected of a titled genius, breaking through to become a Top Tier King!"
