Asura Sovereign XIV Page 10

  A section of that cliff broke and crumbled from the impact, whereas that Eminent Elder laid at the edge, no longer moving.

  Apart from Feng Yang, Liu Yun, Qi Wen, and Chen Yang, the others were flabbergasted staring at that human-shaped hole on the wall.

  Wang Na, as well as the several Eminent Elders were shocked and bewildered, losing their bearing.

  “Old witch, what other crimes do you want to accuse me of?” While these people were still in shock, Huwang Xiao’s aloof voice jolted them back to reality.

  Wang Na’s head jerked up, glaring at Huwang Xiao despite the apprehension and fear in her eyes. She knew very well that Eminent Elder’s strength. Although he was weaker than Feng Yang, it was not that big of a gap, a mid-Second Order Highgod Realm.

  Yet a mid-Second Order Highgod Realm couldn't withstand a flick of Huwang Xiao’s finger? Then… Huwang Xiao’s strength was... Third Order Highgod Realm?!

  Huwang Xiao, this dog, was already a Third Order Highgod Realm master?! But, she obviously did not sense any godforce from him, so what exactly was happening?!

  In fact, it was nothing out of the ordinary for Wang Na unable to sense Huwang Xiao’s godforce earlier, for he did not use any godforce at all, only pure physical strength. Then again, it was merely one-millionth of his physical strength.

  Wang Na could hear her own voice shaking, “Huwang Xiao, as an Elder of Black Warrior Institute, you killed first an institute Grand Elder, then heavily injured an Eminent Elder, you, you, you…!”

  “I what?” Huwang Xiao smirked. He raised a palm toward her and the pulled Wang Na before him.

  Wang Na sensed the murderous aura from Huwang Xiao’s body, causing her small face to be drained of blood, fear and fury mixed together, “You, I-I’m the Institute Principal! Huwang Xiao, you dare to kill me?! You want to turn the entire Black Warrior Institute into your enemy?!”

  “Become enemies with the whole Black Warrior Institute? Old witch, you overvalue yourself.” Huwang Xiao laughed loudly at Wang Na’s words, “Then again, so what if I become enemies with the entire Black Warrior Institute?”

  After saying that, Huwang Xiao tapped a finger on Wang Na’s arm and a vigor force entered her body, breaking all of her bones. Huwang Xiao controlled the vigor force’s speed and strength, making sure it broke Wang Na’s bones piece by piece.

  The sounds of breaking bones resounded in the hall again and again, as if there was no end to it, together with Wang Na’s intermittent screams. Even so, her eyes were glaring venomously at Huwang Xiao, “Huwang Xiao, even if you kill me, the Great Lord will spare neither you nor your family. You and your family will come to accompany me in hell very soon!”

  “Great Lord?” Huwang Xiao issued a harsh snicker, “I forgot to inform you, that Great Lord of yours is already dead, I killed him. He’s already waiting impatiently for you in hell.”

  Wang Na, He Zhiwu, and He Fei were dazed.

  Then Wang Na shrieked, “Huwang Xiao, you really think simply mouthing some nonsense will make me believe you? Just you, a mere Third Order Highgod Realm, is our Great Lord’s match? How powerful my Great Lord is is not something you can imagine. The Great Lord is destined to become an existence that will conquer countless galaxies!” She would never believe that Huwang Xiao was capable of killing the Great Lord backing them.

  Her Great Lord had subordinates such as the Mirage King, masters of peak late-Third Order Highgod Realm, and could only be stronger than that. How can Huwang Xiao kill her Great Lord?

  He Zhiwu and He Fei also refused to believe his words.

  Huwang Xiao shook his head, too lazy to say anything further. His palm landed a swift strike on Wang Na’s chest, shattering her internal organs.

  Although Wang Na’s physical body was not weak being a mid-First Order Highgod Realm master, in front of Huwang Xiao, it was as fragile as a paper tiger.

  “Huwang Xiao, release Institute Principal Wang Na this instant!” An Eminent Elder shouted when he saw Huwang Xiao striking Wang Na’s chest. “If you dare to kill Institute Principal Wang Na, all of us will make a joint order for all the forces in Black Tortoise Galaxy to hunt you down. No matter how strong you are, there will be no place for you in the Black Tortoise Galaxy!”

  “So noisy!” Huwang Xiao made a curt wave with his hand.

  That peak mid-Second Order Highgod Realm Eminent Elder was sent flying, adding another human-shaped hole through the wall. The remaining Eminent Elders finally felt genuine fear down to their souls. Not one of them dared to make another sound.

  “You dog Huwang Xiao, kill me if you’ve got the guts, kill me!” Wang Na shrill shrieked cut through the hall.

  “Don’t worry, I definitely will kill you.” A chilling light then flitted past Huwang Xiao’s eyes and a purple soul (魂) character flew out from his pupils, entering Wang Na’s mind, scouring her soul for useful information. When that ended, the Archdevil Supreme Godhead’s devouring power begin absorbing Wang Na’s blood essence and godforce. Right in front of the horrified He Zhiwu, He Fei, and the others present, Wang Na’s body began to shrink, finally leaving nothing but a dried corpse.

  With a casual flick of his finger, a strand of fire fell onto what remained of Wang Na, incinerating it to ashes.

  Wang Na’s death was absolute, nothing like an avatar as what happened with Fang Chu. She was also the shortest lasting Institute Principal in the history of the Black Warrior Institute.

  After he was done with Wang Na, Huwang Xiao’s gaze fell onto He Zhiwu, He Fei, as well as the remaining Grand Elders and Elders.

  Just this one look caused those elders’ hearts to palpitate. Some fell to their knees, kowtowing to Huwang Xiao for mercy.

  Watching them act this way, Huwang Xiao’s gaze shifted onto the group of Eminent Elders. One could easily see the fear in these Eminent Elders’ eyes even as they subconsciously retreated.

  “...Huwang Xiao, y-you, what do you want to do?” One of them stammered

  Huwang Xiao spoke without any emotion in his voice, “Wang Na’s already dead, I’m sure you all have no objections with my Master continuing as the Black Warrior Institute Principal, yes?”

  Everyone was too confounded to answer.

  “No, no objection, no objection.” These people forced a smile that looked uglier than crying.

  However, Huwang Xiao made them sign a blood contract. Having no other way, they signed it.

  Coincidentally, a disciple ran into the hall at this moment, saying that the Jiang, Wang, Gudu, and Zhu Families’ Patriarchs were waiting outside the Black Warrior Institute, coming to discuss an alliance with Wang Na.

  “Great, lead them all in here.” Huwang Xiao calmly ordered.

  Ch.888

  The disciple respectfully complied and left the great hall.

  On the periphery of the Black Warrior Institute’s grounds, Jiang WuHuwang, Wang Dingy, Gudu Ye, and Zhu Chu saw that the disciple who went to report had returned, but there was no Wang Na, nor a Grand Elder who came out to welcome them. Seeing this, these distinguish Patriarchs were slightly frowning.

  The disciple stood a few meters before the four Patriarchs, saying that the Black Warrior Institute Principal invites them to the great hall.

  Of course, that disciple only mentioned the Institute Principal and not Institute Principal Wang Na. However, neither Jiang WuHuwang nor Wang Dingyi, Gudu Ye, or Zhu Chu noticed this small detail.

  “Hehe, that biddy is putting on airs now. She knows we’re here, but not only did she not come out to welcome us, she didn’t even send a Grand Elder, or an Elder at the very least. Instead, she just sent a common disciple to inform us.” Wang Dingyi was upset.

  Gudu Ye curled his lips in disdain, bearing a hint of envy, “She’s now the Black Warrior Institute Principal, greatly favored by the Great Lord, putting some airs in front of us is no surprise. However, Jiang WuHuwang, even though that biddy is your lover, she obviously doesn’t put you in her eyes. Hehe, looks like you’re losing your charm ah.
”

  Wang Dingyi and the others didn’t bother to conceal their laughter, causing Jiang WuHuwang’s face to stretch taut in annoyance, “Several Patriarchs need not be concerned about my charm.” Jiang WuHuwang flicked his sleeves and flew forward, leaving the rest behind. Watching him act this way, Gudu Ye and the rest decided against saying anything more.

  Without another word, the disciple led Jiang WuHuwang’s group to the Black Warrior Great Hall.

  On the way, with his back toward the others, Jiang WuHuwang’s expression was sullen. Even after knowing he was here, that Wang Na actually hadn't come out to welcome him? Looks like he needed to ‘torture’ her good tonight.

  They soon arrived at the Black Warrior Great Hall, entering behind the disciple.

  Just as they stepped inside, all four of them spotted Huwang Xiao almost immediately, as well as Feng Yang, Liu Yun, Qi Wen, and Chen Yang. For a second, Jiang WuHuwang’s group was nonplussed.

  “Huwang Xiao, you’re not dead?!” Jiang WuHuwang’s face sank.

  “What, are you disappointed that I didn’t die?”

  Wang Dingyi snorted coldly, “I didn't expect you to still be alive, and I cannot comprehend why the Great Lord would spare you.”

  Spare Huwang Xiao? Feng Yang, Liu Yun, and everyone else revealed an odd expression.

  “Where’s Wang Na?” Jiang WuHuwang already took a glance around the great hall but did not see her. He did not miss the two human-shaped holes on the walls, perplexing him. Not to mention the seemingly weakened Eminent Elders and Grand Elders in the hall, who were behaving fidgety.

  Wang Dingyi and Gudu Ye suddenly tensed noticing Wang Na’s absence.

  “Where is your Institute Principal Wang Na?!” Wang Dingyi directed this question at Grand Elder He Zhiwu.

  He Zhiwu flinched, looking terrified. His mouth opened and closed, but no actual word was spoken. At this point, without Huwang Xiao’s permission, even if he were given ten thousand times more courage, he still wouldn’t dare to utter a word.

  Watching this, an ominous feeling suddenly crept up Jiang WuHuwang’s heart.

  “Huwang Xiao, is it you? Did you detain Wang Na? Speak, is it you?!” Jiang WuHuwang snarled at Huwang Xiao.

  “Could it be that Wang Na didn’t come out to welcome us because you detained her?!” Wang Dingyi was glaring daggers at Huwang Xiao, “Huwang Xiao, you’d do better to release Wang Na immediately! Even if you locked her up, you cannot stop us from forming an alliance with the Black Warrior Institute.”

  Other possibilities did not cross Wang Dingyi or the other three people’s minds. More accurately, it never occurred to them that Huwang Xiao had the guts to kill Wang Na. Imprisoning her was the best choice in their opinion.

  After all, Wang Na was the current official Black Warrior Institute Principal, everyone in the Black Tortoise Galaxy knew about this.

  In the Black Warrior Institute’s tens of thousands of years of history, never had there been anyone who dared to do so.

  A harsh snicker of contempt sounded from Huwang Xiao, “You guys want to see Wang Na that old witch so much? Don’t rush, you lot will get to see her very soon.”

  Hearing this, Jiang WuHuwang’s group thought that Huwang Xiao meant he would release her and they inwardly breathed in relief.

  “Looks like you aren't so stupid after all, you understand that it’s useless to lock her up.” Jiang WuHuwang went on, “In fact, with your talent and strength, as long as you’re willing to submit, our Great Lord will definitely place importance on you.”

  Huwang Xiao couldn’t resist shaking his head in laughter, “Looks like you lot misunderstood my words earlier. Let me reword it; since you lot are so anxious to meet Wang Na that old witch, I’ll send you all down to hell to see her.”

  The four Patriarchs stiffened.

  Jiang WuHuwang and the others were just about to roar in fury, but Huwang Xiao’s right palm raised up and an overwhelming suction force erupted from it. To Jiang WuHuwang and the other three Patriarchs’ horror, they felt as if their limbs were pinned to the air, unable to move even as they flew toward Huwang Xiao.

  “W-what are you doing, Huwang Xiao?!” Jiang WuHuwang’s pupils shrank in fear. Yet, he refused to believe that Huwang Xiao would dare to kill him.

  “What am I doing? You’ll know in a bit.” Huwang Xiao reassured.

  As the four came to a stop in front of Huwang Xiao, his Archdevil Supreme Godhead’s devouring power surged, swallowing their blood essence and godforce. Despair filled their eyes sensing the condition of their bodies, their faces ashen.

  “I forgot to tell you guys, your so-called Great Lord is already waiting for you all in hell.” Huwang Xiao kindly informed.

  The four Patriarchs’ stiffened again hearing that, disbelief written all over their faces.

  Huwang Xiao increased the devouring power of his Archdevil Supreme Godhead, accelerating the speed with which Jiang WuHuwang, Wang Dingyi, Gudu Ye, and Zhu Chu’s blood essence and godforce were flowing into his body.

  It didn’t take long for the four Patriarchs to turn in dried corpses, just like Wang Na. Still, with their eyes protruding out of their sockets in fear, they tumbled to the floor.

  The group of Black Warrior Institute Grand Elders was quietly trembling, their faces drained of blood. Even the Eminent Elders were not an exception.

  The scene in front of them was too appalling.

  Jiang WuHuwang, Wang Dingyi, Gudu Ye, and Zhu Chu died just like that in front of them, any one of these four people was an existence that could have a third of the Black Tortoise Galaxy’s forces shaking with a stamp of their foot. Their families had been sitting at the top of the Black Tortoise Galaxy’s power hierarchy for the last ten millennia.

  Now, all four died right in front of their eyes!

  Sucked dry!

  At the same time, the several Eminent Elders were secretly rejoicing. Had they refused to sign the blood contract with Huwang Xiao earlier, they would have most likely ended up like these four dried corpses on the floor.

  With a casual wave of his hand, Huwang Xiao sent out a sliver of fire element godforce, cleanly burning away the remains of Jiang WuHuwang, Wang Dingyi, Gudu Ye, and Zhu Chu.

  …

  In a secret space within a large world surface not far away from the Black Warrior Institute, the Gudu Family Ancestor, Gudu Batian, was in close seclusion when a message from the family's Grand Elder came through the communication talisman and disturbed him. Feeling that it was strange, Gudu Batian took it out and read the message. Instantly, his face was filled with grief, fury, and sorrow; his emotions became chaotic, “Impossible, how can this be! Who killed my Ye’er—!”

  When a Gudu Family Grand Elder noticed that Gudu Ye’s life slip had shattered, he immediately reported the matter to their Family Ancestor.

  Gudu Batian disappeared in a flicker. With a Greater Space Teleportation, he had arrived at the great hall of the Gudu Family’s main residence.

  By this time, all Grand Elders of the family had assembled in the hall, waiting for him.

  “Have you found out who the murderer is?!” Gudu Batian roared at the group of Grand Elders.

  “Ancestor, we haven't found out yet. But we know the Patriarch was heading to the Black Warrior Institute together with the Jiang, Wang and Zhu Families’ Patriarchs to discuss an alliance with Institute Principal Wang Na.” One of the Grand Elders answered weakly.

  Ch.889

  “He was heading to the Black Warrior Institute?” Gudu Batian’s gaze turned sharp and chilling, “Then I shall make a trip there and ask that biddy Wang Na.”

  While Gudu Batian was prepared to consume a large portion of his godforce to perform Greater Space Teleportation all the way there, an indifferent voice rang in the hall, “I don’t think that’s necessary.”

  The unfamiliar voice was too abrupt, startling Gudu Batian and the group of Grand Elders.

  Before the wary eyes of Gudu Batian, a figure slowly walked into the hall t
hrough the entrance. When he got a look at that person’s face, Gudu Batian was dazed for a second, then a bit doubtful, “Huwang Xiao?”

  This figure was naturally Huwang Xiao.

  After killing Gudu Ye, Jiang WuHuwang, Wang Dingyi, and Zhu Chu, he knew it would alert the Jiang, Gudu, Wang, and Zhu Families, thus he decided to deal with these four families’ Ancestors before they could react.

  As Huwang Xiao walked into the hall, his gaze swept over the faces of the Grand Elders present and Gudu Batian, commenting, “Everyone’s here, all the better.”

  Gudu Batian’s face tightened, “Huwang Xiao, what are you doing here in my Gudu Family’s main residence? Don’t get arrogant just because you have Feng Yang and the Ascending Moon Old Man as Masters, thinking I won’t dare to kill you. Roll out of here now! Remember, not walk, not run, but roll!”

  After Gudu Batian found out that his son Gudu Ye had been murdered, his reason was close to breaking point. He was blinded by fury and killing intent, and this Huwang Xiao suddenly appearing in his territory and saying something inconceivable like ‘everyone’s here, all the better’ incensed him further.

  If it was any other person, Gudu Batian would have slapped the intruder to death without a word instead of wasting effort in telling that person to roll out.

  Huwang Xiao flashed Gudu Batian a faint smile, “And if I don’t?”

  Gudu Batian’s pupils needled, “Then you can go and die!” His palm had already struck toward Huwang Xiao even before his last word sounded, followed by earth element godforce flooding out from Gudu Batian’s body.

  Affected by Gudu Batian’s earth element godforce, the entire hall’s floor crack and sank into the ground. The present Grand Elders swayed unsteadily, sinking together with the floor, few unlucky ones were even buried into the soil up to their waist.

  Watching Gudu Batian’s palm closing in, Huwang Xiao responded with a casual wave of his palm.

  That seemingly horrifying palm strike imbued with roiling earth element godforce trembled and burst softly in midair, whereas Gudu Batian himself was blasted in the opposite direction as if he were hit by a sledgehammer. His body slammed heavily into the wall behind him.
