Chapter 1614 - 1597: Searching for Xiao Ye
The Dark Emperor is here to kill!The Martial Artists of the Wuji Sect felt their souls trembling, a chilling cold enveloping their entire being, as if they had fallen into an ice cave, gasping for breath.
Especially the four Half-Emperors, Wu Ming, Taiyi Palace Master, Sword Emperor, and Pei Jiang, their shock quickly turned into uncontrollable rage.
If it had been the other four Sealing Emperor Strong People making a move at this moment, they might have accepted it more easily.
But the Dark Emperor had not yet reached the end of his one-year agreement with Xiao Ye and was already making a move with pompous justification, utterly tyrannical.
Such a reneging act would anger anyone.
"What difference does giving Xiao Ye one year’s time make?"
"In the end, he will still be killed by this Emperor; the outcome is already destined. I’m merely bringing the conclusion forward now; it also helps you all escape from this sea of suffering sooner."
The Dark Emperor strode along the black road, with each step emanating a terrifying power, causing ripples to spread through the void, shaking the entire Wuji City.
"Today, this Emperor will turn Wuji City into a dead city."
The Dark Emperor’s deep gaze swept over Wuji City, his hand slightly raised, grasping carelessly.
Instantly—
Rumble!
The space beside the Dark Emperor directly tore open, with numerous teleportation array runes swirling. Amidst the overwhelming black light, a massive amount of Dark Emperor Divine Dynasty Martial Artists descended, numbering over a hundred thousand, surging toward Wuji City like a tide, their murderous intent sky-high.
The leaders were naturally the two remaining Half-Emperors of the Dark Emperor Divine Dynasty, both possessing the strength of middle-level Half Emperors.
The Martial Artists of the Dark Emperor Divine Dynasty, unable to keep up with the Dark Emperor’s speed, used the teleportation array to arrive swiftly.
"Damn this Dark Emperor, he’s so shameless; there must be a traitor from our Wuji Sect who leaked the news of Xiao Ye’s four Perfect Profound Mysteries and closed-door cultivation!"
"Indeed so shameless, with the Dark Emperor’s proud nature, if he was here to kill us, he wouldn’t bother showing up in person, so he’s definitely targeting Xiao Ye this time."
"Stop talking, let’s fight!"
...
The four Half-Emperors, led by Taiyi Palace Master, roared angrily, unleashing Half-Emperor Power to confront the incoming Dark Emperor Divine Dynasty Martial Artists.
Boom!
But as soon as they took to the sky, they saw the Dark Emperor pressing down upon them from a distance, with terrifying power sweeping over, causing Taiyi Palace Master and the others’ vision to blacken, as if the heavens and earth were suppressing them, their bodies trembled, blood seeping from their mouths as they fell from mid-air.
"Haha, with our Lord Dark Emperor here, you dare resist?"
The two Half-Emperors of the Dark Emperor Divine Dynasty, leading the Martial Artists into Wuji City, laughed sinisterly, with Half-Emperor Power sweeping out like a storm, triggering blood and carnage.
Facing the slaughter from the Dark Emperor Divine Dynasty, the Martial Artists of the Wuji Sect could not even muster any war intent, their minds shivering.
They all realized that the Dark Emperor’s arrival this time was serious.
When the Dark Emperor is enraged, blood will flow.
Compared to the Dark Emperor, they were like lambs to the slaughter, the gap was simply too vast, who could possibly withstand?
Within the Inner Mansion of the Wuji Mansion, array runes danced in the air.
The arrays set by the Array Masters here were all activated, unleashing a surging energy from the top-grade Essence Stones, keeping the arrays operational.
"Dayan Driving Heaven Technique!"
Bing Ya sat cross-legged, with a mighty Emperor’s Martial Intent emanating from her brow, immediately retrieved by Xiao Ye from the Dark Emperor’s hand, with his Half-step Emperor’s Body emerging, unleashing immense power to protect the entire Inner Mansion.
"Has the Dark Emperor come to kill?"
"Ye’er is still in closed-door cultivation, what should we do?"
...
Inside the Inner Mansion, Xiao Yang, Luo Meilan, Xiao Fan, and other members of the Xiao Alliance gathered, their faces pale as they heard the sounds of slaughter and earth-shattering noise from outside.
Even with the protection of a Half-Emperor’s Body, they still felt no sense of safety.
Moreover, as everything happened so suddenly, they didn’t have any time to escape, like turtles in a jar, they could be annihilated by the Dark Emperor at any moment.
"Xiao Ye, this time we can only rely on you, you must hold off the Dark Emperor, or the bloodline of the Xiao Family may be entirely wiped out."
Xiao Teng looked at his child and other younger generations of the Xiao Family, tightening his fists.
He wasn’t afraid of death.
He feared that these younger generations in Xiao Family Village would be entirely caught by the Dark Emperor.
Faced with the terrifying Dark Emperor, he felt utterly powerless.
"Hmm? There’s a presence of a Half-Emperor over there!"
"Heh, it’s the Half-Emperor’s Body from the Wuji Sect, which Xiao Ye took back from Lord Dark Emperor."
"It seems those who possess this Half-Emperor’s Body must be Xiao Ye’s relatives!"
...
The two Half-Emperors of the Dark Emperor Divine Dynasty rampaged through Wuji City, sensing the fluctuations coming from the direction of the Inner Mansion, they grinned viciously and charged forward.
The slaughter unleashed within Wuji City mattered little to the Dark Emperor.
Aside from Xiao Ye, everyone else in the Wuji Sect was no different from ants to him.
At this moment, striding along the black road, the Dark Emperor had already approached Wuji City.
"Where is that brat Xiao Ye hiding?"
"Damn it, the Martial Artist from the Wuji Sect who leaked the information to this Emperor didn’t clarify, and then was killed by this Emperor."
The Dark Emperor’s almost tangible consciousness, more terrifying than a Half-Emperor Intent, swept out like a storm, easily enveloping the entire Wuji City.
Every move within the city was as clear to him as the palm of his hand.
Yet after a thorough search, he didn’t find Xiao Ye’s presence, causing him to frown slightly.
"Could Xiao Ye be in hiding?"
A cold gleam flashed in the Dark Emperor’s eyes.
As a Quasi Emperor, he had continuously suffered losses from Xiao Ye, naturally harboring immense hatred toward him.
Learning of Xiao Ye’s significant progress, he could no longer sit still; only by killing the opponent could he find peace.
"Xiao Ye, does hiding help?"
"Your relatives should all be here, so you must not be far." The next moment, the Dark Emperor’s gaze turned towards the Wuji Mansion’s location.
A massive array shrouded the area, with the two Half-Emperors from the Dark Emperor Divine Dynasty attacking the array.
"What?!"
"Xiao Ye’s parents are in danger!"
...
The three, including Taiyi Palace Master, suppressed by the terrifying aura of the Dark Emperor, unable to move, noticed the Dark Emperor’s gaze and were suddenly shocked, desperately taking to the sky trying to intercept the Dark Emperor.
"How dare the glow of a firefly compete with the brilliance of the sun and moon!"
But before they could get close, they were all slapped away by the Dark Emperor.
"No, we must alert Xiao Ye, or else it will be too late." Taiyi Palace Master coughed up blood, his body shattering, he took out a Jade Scroll from the Space Ring and crushed it.
This was the preparation left by Xiao Ye during his closed-door training; as long as it was crushed, Xiao Ye would be alarmed.
Although this would disturb Xiao Ye’s meditation, it was a necessary measure.
As the Jade Scroll was crushed, the void above Wuji City suddenly trembled, cracking open a gap, a boundless powerful consciousness swept out, soon causing the Heavenly Dome to burst open.
"Dark Emperor?"
"There are still three months left until our scheduled battle. If you use this time wisely, you might be able to break through the shackles and become a Perfect Quasi Emperor, but now you choose a path to self-destruction!"
In that crevice, a faint young figure could be seen sitting cross-legged, black hair dancing wildly, divine radiance emanating all around him.
From his body poured out a terrifying aura, the four great mysterious forces of Wind, Water, Earth, and Wood, along with the Slaughter Law, simultaneously surged out, sweeping through the entire Wuji City.
