Chapter 77 - Bloodbath’s Past And The Incoming War.



Yan Empire, The Yan Imperial Palace

Within an incomparably large main hall filled with a cold and dark solemn aura, the Yan emperor sat in his throne chair with his head down while holding what seemed to be a painting.

It was impossible to see the look on his face as it was covered with his left hand while his elbow was placed on the side support of the throne chair.

Even though one could not see his face, it wasn\'t impossible to guess his mood or his state of mind at the moment from his sitting posture as well as the cold and the solemn aura that filled the entire main hall.

Creak! Creak!

Suddenly, a loud creaking sound could be heard as the door of the main hall was pushed open as two individuals entered the room.

Without wasting any time, the two individuals quickly walked towards the Yan Emperor that was sitting on his throne chair.

Once they arrived a few meters away from the Emperor, they immediately stopped as they put their right hands across their chests and kneeled before him.

"We pay our respect to his Highness the Emperor." Simultaneously said the two individuals.

One of the two individuals was an old man with official attire. From his looks, one could tell that he was a high official within the Yan Empire.

As for the other person, he was a bulk muscular man wearing a black robe. His eyebrows were sharp as swords.

Compared to the calm and composed old man, the bulk muscular man\'s brows were slightly knit as he had an anxious look on his face. He was like a poor and troubling student in the presence of a stern teacher.

Upon hearing their voices, The Yan Emperor slowly uncovered his face, revealing a cold and frosty look on his face as he raised his head to look at them.

Whoever his gaze fell upon, felt as if they were being eyed by a poisonous snake; their whole body felt a sudden chill.

Though the two of them could feel his powerful and cold gaze as he was looking at them, none of them dare to raise their head to meet his gaze.

Being stared down by the Yan Emperor, the two of them felt as if their bodies were being pricked by a sharp sword, especially the bulk muscular man.

" Thank you, Ji Feng, you can leave now." Suddenly, the cold and emotionless voice of the Emperor rang out within the main hall.

" Thank you, Your Highness." Quickly answered the old man before he quickly left the main hall with the fastest speed possible.

The old man couldn\'t wait to get out of this place. He ran like a prisoner in death row that has been pardoned, afraid the other party would suddenly change his mind. He had been working for the Emperor for countless years and it was the first time he saw the Emperor in such a bad mood.

The Yan Emperor usually looked like a regular old man with no power to thrust a chicken. However, after the news of Bloodbath\'s death, his temperament suddenly changed from an amiable middle-aged man to a cold demon lord.

As someone that has been working in the Palace for many years, he knew some secrets that not many people knew about, as such, he was aware of why the Yan Emperor was such in a bad mood.

"So, you are the 1st hall master of the Bloodbath assassination guild." The cold voice of the Emperor rang out again. However, this time the killing intent in his voice was unmasked as the bulk muscular could feel it.

" Yes, Your Highness." Answered the 1st hall master as he finally lifted his head to look at the Emperor.

However, before his gaze could even meet the Emperor\'s, he suddenly jolted in fright as he saw the painting on the Emperor\'s right hand.

It wasn\'t that the painting was ominous or evil. In fact, it was a very beautiful painting of two joyful boys. However, the thing that frightened the 1st hall master was the fact the two boys looked exactly like the younger version of the Emperor.

At the same time, he suddenly remembered a story from long ago.

Legend as it that hundred of years ago, before the current Emperor of the Yan Empire became the crown prince of the Yan Empire, his older twin brother Yan Long held that position before him.

At that time, the current Emperor wasn\'t bothered with politics and spent most of his time in debauchery. He didn\'t even bother cultivating. He was considered trash.

Meanwhile, his twin older brother was the complete opposite. Not only he was adept in politics, but he was also a genius when it comes to cultivating. He was the perfect crown prince. It was clear to everyone that he was going to be the future Emperor of the Yan Empire.

It went on to say that he was unbeatable in his life. Even the current sect master of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect in his youth had lost to Yan Long. He was the strongest younger generation of his time.

However, ten years before the old Emperor abdicated from his throne. The current emperor that was already in his mid-twenties at that time suddenly started to cultivate Martial Art.

Rumor has it that his cultivation speed broke all records since it exceeded even the old emperor at that time, Emperor Yan Di.

He who was basked in the glory met someone who was even faster than him in cultivation. The two suddenly began to compete for the throne of the Yan Empire. Ultimately, Yan Long lost to his little twin brother.

Keep in mind that during this bout, Yan Long who was the crown prince was already at the Peak of the Martial Emperor realm when his twin brother started to cultivate.

After his defeat, Yan Long suddenly disappeared from the public eye. Even though he didn\'t publicly cut ties with the Yan Empire, he never returned afterward.

After a decade of his disappearance, a rumor began to circulate which claimed that the Yan Emperor, his twin little brother, had killed Yan Long to avoid future trouble. As such thing wasn\'t uncommon in the Heaven Desolate Region for a brother to kill brother for wealth and power, especially for royals, many people believed it to be true.

After another ten years and Yan Long still hadn\'t resurfaced, almost everyone believed that he was indeed killed by the current Emperor of the Yan Empire, except for a selected few.

Two years later, a mysterious assassination guild was known as the Bloodbath Assassination guild suddenly made its appearance and took the entire Heaven Desolate Region by storm.

" Were you the one that circulates the rumor about Bloodbath\'s death as well as Ling Chen\'s power?" Asked the Yan Emperor.

The 1st hall master who was still in a trance while he was immersed in the story about the current Emperor and his twin brother suddenly jolted awake after hearing the Emperor\'s question.

"Yes, Your Highness." Truthfully answered the 1st hall master while he was trembling in fear. He couldn\'t believe he let himself be caught by those bastards.

" Tell me everything that transpired before the death of Bloodbath."

After hearing the emperor\'s question, the 1st hall master quickly explained everything to the Emperor, from the moment they encountered Ling Chen till his last showdown with Bloodbath.

The 1st hall master didn\'t dare to lie to the Emperor or to leave anything behind as he knew that it was futile.

Not only because he was afraid of the Emperor, but also because he could feel a more powerful and frightening presence within the Imperial Palace. In front of that unknown powerful presence, he felt like an insect.

Though he didn\'t personally see the person, he had an idea about who it was.

After listening to the 1st hall master\'s story, the Emperor didn\'t say anything but instead look in a certain direction.

The moment, the Yan Emperor shifted his gaze to that direction, a commanding voice, that was filled with nobility suddenly rang from the deepest part of the Imperial Palace.

" Interesting!, no one kills my Yan Di\'s son and get away with it. Yan Zhaoge, it\'s time to trample the Heavenly Demon Sect."

"As for the Evil Dragon Saint, you don\'t have to worry about him. I\'ll personally make a trip to the Evil Dragon Sect."

"As for that bastard, do what you want with him."

"Yes, father." Respectfully answered the Emperor.

After that, not only the voices disappeared but also the presence of that dreadful character as well.

Swoosh!

However, the moment the 1st hall master felt the disappearance of that dreadful character, he didn\'t dare to stay there any longer, waiting to be killed, as he suddenly turned into a streak of light and made his escape.

Bzzz!!

However, before he could leave the main hall, a light lit up where the Emperor was sitting which instantly covered the entire main hall.

At the same time, the 1st hall master\'s speed that even faster than Lightning, so fast that one couldn\'t even see him with the naked eye strangely slowed down to the point where he looked like a turtle that was crossing a street. This scene was quite bizarre.

In one moment, infinite speed; the next second, a snail speed.

Once the Emperor\'s body releases the dark blue light that covered the entire main hall, it wasn\'t only the 1st hall master\'s speed that was hindered, the weight of his body exponentially increased as well.

"Bam!" Next, before he could make it to the door, the 1st hall master could no longer stand straight and promptly kneeled on the ground. It seemed as though the world\'s heaviest object was crushing down on him, like a mountain looming over his shoulder.

Meanwhile, the emperor was still sitting on his throne without moving a finger. His face was still cold and his eyes emotionless as he was looking at the 1st hall master that was struggling to stand up under his domain.

Swoosh!

The next moment, the intensity of the dark blue light increased as the Emperor increased the power of his domain.

Bang!

The 1st hall master that was struggling to stand up suddenly fell face down on the floor. Afterward, one could hear the sound of bones breaking. The 1st hall master\'s bones shattered one by one as he couldn\'t withstand this terrifying force

"No…" The 1st hall master cried out in despair as he felt that he was being run over by a bulldozer. The moment the Emperor increased the power of his domain, he was in an even worse position. Aside from his bones being shattered one by one, he could also feel his internal organs exploding from within.

Before the 1st hall master could even finish his desperate howl, his entire body shattered. With more cracking noises, his whole being was completely crushed.

The 1st hall master was no more. There was only a pool of smashed flesh and quietly flowing blood on the floor.

"Foolish! No one has ever escaped my Gravitational Domain." Coldly uttered the Emperor while looking at the pool of blood on the floor.

.....

Heavenly Demon Sect, Heavenly Demon Palace.

At this moment, the grand hall of the Heavenly Demon Palace was already filled with people.

The Sect Master, Heavenly Demon Venerable Ling Tian, sat upright within the hall with all the Six protectors as well as the twelve great elders by his side.

In front of him were all the elders of the Heavenly Demon Sect as well some powerful elite disciples. Surprisingly, Ling Jian and Ling Xiao were also amongst them, and they sat right in front of Ling Tian.

At this moment, the gazes of everyone within the hall were focused on Ling Tian and these gazes carried curiosity, surprise, greed, and admiration. They have also heard the news about Ling Chen\'s devouring power just like everybody.

" I summoned you all today to clarify one thing as well as making an announcement ." At this moment, the powerful voice of Ling Tian suddenly rang out within the main hall.

"First of all, everything you heard about Ling Chen\'s power is true. However, it isn\'t a battle technique like many people believe, it\'s Ling Chen\'s innate ability. I am sure you were all aware of the situation of my wife when she was pregnant with Ling Chen as well as how she died."

" Secondly, from now on, the entire Heavenly Demon Sect is on lockdown. No one is allowed to leave or enter the sect."

" I will immediately activate the defensive array formation. Also, we should start preparing for war. That\'s all for today." Ling Tian said before he suddenly disappeared within the main hall without giving the baffled elders the chance to ask any questions.
