Divine God Against The Heavens

“Bam!”

As Han Luo was running, he was forcefully smashed onto the ground with such strength that a crater formed beneath his body.

“Argh!” Struck by such an attack, Han Luo felt concussed. He wasn’t able to understand what the hell had happened. He was clearly away from Ye Xiao. How did his head get grabbed in an instant?

‘Could it be because of the difference in our strength?’

‘After all, he is an Ancient God!’

When clarity returned to his eyes, he saw Ye Xiao’s hardened face expressing absolute ruthlessness.

“Just die!”

These two were the last words Han Luo heard and closed his eyes forever. When Ye Xiao let him go, there was an additional hole in his chest. Ye Xiao was holding his Void Shattering Spear and blood could be seen dripping from it.

After that, Ye Xiao looked at Lord Hu and asked: “Why didn’t you help them? You are an Ancient God and you must know the strength that I used to kill your people is not at the level of Ancient God. You could have stepped in to stop me from killing them!”

“You are right, I could have stopped you. But I didn’t. I have my reasons!” Lord Hu replied with a mysterious smile.

It looks like their death was a part of his plan. But Ye Xiao couldn’t tell what Lord Hu was thinking. A sense of foreboding assaulted him, but he shrugged it off. It doesn’t matter after all. With his strength, there is no danger that he could not deal with. The only exceptions are Heavens, Heavenly Dao, and the Emissary of Heavens.

At this moment, Lord Hu finally started moving toward Ye Xiao.

Lord Hu’s appearance was quite intimating though. He had white hair, white skin, and a pair of completely white eyes.

If someone looked at his eyes, they would definitely think that he is blind, but this was not the truth. Lord Hu could see well.

“Whoosh!”

Swiftly, Lord Hu attacked him six times. But Ye Xiao easily dodged his attacks which shocked him greatly. He never thought that his attack would be dodged by Ye Xiao with such ease.

‘What happened just now?’

‘It must be a fluke!’ Lord Hu muttered and focused on his battle again. The battle continued like this, with Lord Hu attacking and Ye Xiao dodging.

Lord Hu’s sword style was chaotic and deadly. All his strikes descended on Ye Xiao’s vital spots like torrential rain. But they were all dodged by Ye Xiao easily, unable to touch an inch of his skin.

Finally, after some time, Ye Xiao made his move. When Ye Xiao made his move, he felt death nearing him.

Ye Xiao’s spear barrel through the air and inching towards Lord Hu’s throat.

Seeing death inches away, Lord Hu’s eyes thinned to the size of needles. He hurriedly tried to dodge, but Ye Xiao didn’t give him a chance to act up and continued attacking, putting him in a tight spot.

Even after trying his best, he was only able to change the place where the spear was about to pierce. Ye Xiao’s attack cut open his shoulder.

Ye Xiao smiled and once again started attacking.

The one dodging changed place. Lord Hu dodged Ye Xiao’s attacks by moving left and right, forward and backward.

Suddenly…

Lord Hu erupt with a powerful aura and appeared in front of Ye Xiao. Surprisingly, his hand turned into a black claw, exuding black gas that emitted evil energy continuously.

“Ancient Devil!” Ye Xiao was able to recognize this energy immediately.

“Die!” Lord Hu clawed at Ye Xiao, wanting to tear him apart immediately, however, Ye Xiao blocked his attack with his bare hand easily. Then he slapped Lord Hu, causing one of his teeth to fly out of his mouth.

“Impossible!” Lord Hu could not believe this. He again attacked Ye Xiao, however, the result was still the same. He was once again slapped in return.

This continued more than three times.

“J-just how does he keep hitting me?” Lord Hu was utterly confused. He couldn’t believe that he, an Ancient God who has received blessings from Ancient Devil, was constantly being slapped in the face by a God.

“No matter how you’ll try, you won’t be able to injure me. But yes, I’ll definitely kill you today. As I said before, mark my words, I’ll show you hell today.”

“You’re stronger than me. I give you that. You must also be an Ancient God and a powerful one at that. But I’ll also give you my words, you won’t be able to kill me.” Lord Hu admitted himself inferior to Ye Xiao, but then he chuckled and challenged Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao didn’t know why but he felt Lord Hu must have a stronger card up his sleeve.

Ye Xiao: “What are you planning to do?”

“You asked why I didn’t help them? Look, this is the reason!” Lord Hu raised his hands while holding his sword and started uttering a demonic chant, which caused a great disturbance in the hall. “The end of all beginnings, the start of all sufferings. Sovereign will descend, Ancient Devil will rule the Heavens.”

Ye Xiao saw a chilly black wind raised around Lord Hu the second he started chanting.

“Swoosh!”

Suddenly, a runic formation formed in the air and descended from above, piercing past Lord Hu’s body, and engraving itself on the ground. Swirling black mist gushed out of the formation the next instant, changing into the shape of black hands that descended down to grab Ye Xiao.

“What shit is this? ” Ye Xiao frowned and the next instant, he waved his spear in the air before throwing it towards Lord Hu.

“Whoosh!”

The spear pierced through Lord Hu’s body. Lord Hu was busy chanting and was unable to even sense a coming attack.

Blood flowed out from his abdomen and he opened his eyes wide, looking down at the spear in fear.

“This can’t be happening. I can’t die here.” Lord Hu muttered. He was scared shitlessly. He was chanting the sacred words to get help from Ancient Devil, he was supposed to become more powerful, however, he was actually dying now.

“Ancient Devils had never been existences to be trusted. Instead of relying on Ancient Devils, you should have relied on your own strength. Maybe then you could have put up some fierce fight, however, you chose to believe in Ancient Devil which resulted in your current situation. You were left defenseless. Even an Immortal would not die in the way you are dying.”

It was at this moment, Ye Xiao’s cold voice rang in his ears. He raised his lifeless white pair of eyes and took a look at Ye Xiao for the last time. Then he fell backward, taking his last breath.

Ye Xiao summoned back the Void Shattering Spear. Then he shook his head and was about to leave when he suddenly felt a surge of familiar evil aura suddenly bursting forth.

“This is…?”

Ye Xiao turned his head and looked at the corpse of Lord Hu, only to see black evil gas swirling around his body had become denser and was now forcefully entering his body like a waterfall colliding against the surface of rocks after falling from above.

Cracks started appearing on Lord Hu’s body somehow, revealing his red flesh, however, the hint of red soon turned completely dark.

“Emhh… I don’t have time to deal with the likes of you one by one. I’ll just wait for your real body to enter the Heavens instead of fighting you!”

Saying this, Ye Xiao pointed at the body of Lord Hu and muttered: “Destruction!”

There was no explosion, no sound, neither was there a need for any fight. The black evil energy drilling inside Lord Hu’s body suddenly seemed to have encountered its natural enemy. The natural enemy was invisible but seemed to be swallowing the black evil energy. It soon completely swallowed the black evil energy along with Lord Hu’s dead body. Everything disappeared so naturally that it became hard to explain.

Without even looking back, Ye Xiao left the huge mountain palace and meet the pair of mother and son outside the palace.

Although they feared encountering the people of Twin Divine Hall or demonic beasts at this place, they knew they were deep inside the Demon Cloud Mountain Range, and could only escape this place if they have the support of Ye Xiao.

That’s the reason why they chose to take the risk and wait for Ye Xiao instead of running and escaping for their lives.

On the other hand, Ye Xiao thought that they chose to wait because he asked them to wait.

Ye Xiao was not interested in Origin Drift Bottle. In his current state, he no longer required any treasure. He asked them to wait only because he wanted to escort them outside the mountain range.

Soon, he brought them outside the mountain range, far from Golden River City.

Then he left them there and disappeared, however, before disappearing, he left his Soul Mark on their souls as well.
