  The whole section of the wall crumbled, burying him in a heap of rubble.

  Looking at Gudu Batian’s sorry state, the Grand Elders looked at Huwang Xiao wide-eyed, confounded. In that moment, their minds were blanked even as they saw Huwang Xiao approaching Gudu Batian.

  “You, who are you?” Gudu Batian’s voice came from underneath the rubble as he pushed his way out, struggling to his feet. Disregarding the thick dust all over himself, Gudu Batian warily watched Huwang Xiao.

  Around two hundred years ago, Feng Yang held a grand apprenticeship ceremony, receiving Huwang Xiao as his personal disciple, and Gudu Batian attended that ceremony. At that time, Huwang Xiao’s cultivation hadn't even reached the God realm. In Gudu Batian’s eyes, an ant had more worth than that Huwang Xiao. At most, he was just ordure left behind by an ant.

  He couldn't believe, refused to believe that, in a short two hundred years, that same Huwang Xiao could grow to the point of sending him flying with a single palm.

  Huwang Xiao remained silent. He pulled Gudu Batian before him, and his Archdevil Supreme Godhead’s devouring power roared to life.

  Similarly to Gudu Ye, Jiang WuHuwang, and the others, Gudu Batian immediately sensed his body’s blood essence and godforce slipping away at a rapid rate, out of his control. Panic, fear, and despair clutched his heart.

  “In fact, the other reason I came here today is to tell you that I’m the one who killed your son.” Huwang Xiao spoke in a flat tone.

  “You!” Gudu Batian’s eyes rounded in fury.

  “Your Gudu Family will be erased from the Black Tortoise Galaxy very soon.” Huwang Xiao coldly added, “Naturally, other than your Gudu Family, there are also the Jiang Family, Wang Family, as well as the Zhu Family.”

  Not wanting to delay any further, Huwang Xiao increased the speed of his Archdevil Supreme Godhead’s devouring power.

  Almost in the blink of an eye, all of Gudu Batian’s blood essence and godforce had dried up. Then a small fireball shot out from Huwang Xiao’s finger, landing on Gudu Batian’s dried corpse and burning it to ashes.

  The hall’s silence was broken by a sharp shriek, the group of Grand Elders could be seen fleeing from the hall in terror.

  Huwang Xiao watched this without much interest, he didn’t even bother to move his hands. In a split second, more than a dozen soul force swords pierced through those Grand Elders, causing their bodies to halt in midair as if frozen, then plummet to the ground. There were no wounds on them, but they were no longer breathing.

  “Should I go to the Jiang Family next or Wang Family?” Huwang Xiao muttered to himself. The space around him rippled and his figure vanished from the hall.

  One day later, a piece of news that shook the whole Black Tortoise Galaxy began to spread. The Jiang, Wang, Gudu, and Zhu Families that had existed and grew into super forces of the Black Tortoise Galaxy in the last millions of years had their Grand Elders, Patriarchs, and Ancestors killed!

  The news first spread from the Cloudsea Mainland, shocking the most prosperous location in the Black Tortoise Galaxy, which raised doubt, confusion, and rebuttals as more and more people continued to talk about the rumor, spreading it even further.

  Some claimed that the four families had offended a super master, whereas there were whispers claiming it was Huwang Xiao who did it.

  Of course, there were even more people who refuted the possibility of it having been done by Huwang Xiao. Amongst the Jiang, Wang, Gudu, and Zhu Families’ Ancestors, there must have been one or two peak-mid Second Order or late-Second Order Highgod Realm masters, hence, no one really believed that Huwang Xiao possessed the required strength to kill them.

  Very soon, another piece of news followed.

  The ranking list for the this term’s Highgod Advancement Tournament involving elite geniuses from close to a hundred thousand galaxies had been announced, and at the top of the list, the first place winner was Huwang Xiao!!

  “What? The first place winner is Huwang Xiao? It must be someone with the same name, right? It cannot be our Black Warrior Institute’s Huwang Xiao.” When the news spread, after the initial astonishment, ten out of ten people would then shake their heads, denying the possibility.

  When everyone concluded that it must be someone with the same name, even more rumors sparked discussions everywhere: it was said that, during the tournament, the Azure Dragon Institute’s Xiang Mingzhi died in Huwang Xiao’s hands!

  Xiang Mingzhi wasn’t the only one, there were also the Saint Lord Galaxy Yelu Family’s most brilliant genius in the last ten million years, Yelu Tianfeng, as well as the Beitang Family Patriarch’s son, Beitang Wuji, both of whom died in Huwang Xiao’s hands!

  Yelu Tianfeng was a peak late-Third Order Highgod Realm master, and so was Beitang Wuji.

  And the one who killed them was none other than their Black Tortoise Galaxy’s Huwang Xiao!

  Not someone with the same name!

  The whole Cloudsea Mainland was in an uproar!

  Shocking, shocking, shocking!

  While every corner of the Cloudsea Mainland was boiling from this consecutive set of news, Huwang Xiao was rushing back to the Martial Spirit World.

  …

  Inside the Huwang Clan Manor’s main hall, Huwang Peng, Su Yan, and the main members of the family were looking troubled and anxious.

  They received news that Wang Na had taken over the Black Warrior Institute Principal position! Moreover, she would soon form an alliance with the Jiang, Wang, Gudu, and Zhu Families. No doubt, the Huwang Clan Manor would be their first annihilation target.

  “I wonder how Xiao is now…” Huwang Peng sighed.

  Su Yan’s soft-arched eyebrows were scrunched together, “I heard before the tournament started that there were some conflicts between Xiao and disciples from some Yelu Family, who even let out word that they will not let Xiao have an easy time inside, and that Yelu Tianfeng is even a peak late-Third Order Highgod Realm master. Could Xiao be…?”

  Su Yan’s unease deepened.

  Because they had just heard the news from the Cloudsea Mainland today, everyone in the Huwang Clan Manor was still unaware that Huwang Xiao was already back in the Black Tortoise Galaxy.

  Looking at his wife’s woeful expression, Huwang Peng comforted, “Don’t worry too much, nothing will happen to Xiao. The venue for the tournament is in the Divine World’s Overflowing Lightning World, which is too big to measure. Those people won't necessarily be able to locate Xiao. Moreover, even if he cannot enter the top one thousand, ensuring his own safety shouldn’t be a problem for him...” Huwang Peng’s voice trailed off, not knowing what else to say.

  He knew that, even if the Overflowing Lightning World may be boundless, there were countless lightning beasts. Could his son really protect himself?
