Chapter 2278 - 2267: The National Guardian Martial God Is Killed

Nodding slightly, Dongfang Haoxuan took down the golden longsword that had been placed atop the main hall and walked steadily out of the hall door as if he were Tai Mountain.

Just after stepping out of the hall door, Dongfang Haoxuan saw two guys in dark red robes slaughtering the helpless stewards and servants of his clan. His firm face grew even angrier, and he shouted, "Stop! How dare you commit such a crime; this Marquis will absolutely not let you off today!"

In Dongfang Haoxuan’s voice, there was the mighty power of his Middle Stage Sub-Saint cultivation, powerful against ordinary people, but it only made the Green-clothed Venerable and several others frown slightly and then become even more brazen and frivolous.

"Stop? You’re the first among the people I have seen to dare order my men right in front of me, Venerable."

Speaking of which, the Green-clothed Venerable abruptly changed his tone and said coldly, "Mere ants dare to shout at me, Venerable, you deserve to die!"

"Today, I will kill all your clan members right in front of you. I want to see what abilities the National Guardian Martial God of the Lianyun Empire really has!"

Before the words fell, a green light rose from the Green-clothed Venerable’s hand, and in an instant, more than a dozen waves of force burst forth, bypassing Dongfang Haoxuan who was clutching his longsword and heading straight for the hall behind him!

"Boom... Ah..."

As the waves passed through, countless cries erupted amidst the countless gravel in the hall, the screams of old and young women and Dongfang Haoxuan’s guards reaching the Green-clothed Venerable’s ears, making him grin fiercely at the killing-aura-ridden Dongfang Haoxuan.

Just now, with the casual movements of the Green-clothed Venerable, those killed were exactly Dongfang Haoxuan’s family clan members who couldn’t even bind a chicken. Turning his head, Dongfang Haoxuan saw dark red blood steaming on the slabs in the hall, flowing slowly, his towering figure beginning to tremble violently with rage.

"I’ll kill you!"

His family killed, the unending hatred made Dongfang Haoxuan’s eyes nearly split, blood-red and fierce. He suddenly drew the sword in his hand, his figure transforming into a whirlwind, intending to obliterate the Green-clothed Venerable in the sword’s glow!

As the National Guardian Martial God, Dongfang Haoxuan’s cultivation was naturally superb, and in his anger, his movement technique’s speed reached its limit. In just an instant, he stood before the Green-clothed Venerable with a raised sword.

"Whish..."

Without a word, Dongfang Haoxuan swung out a horizontal slash, his red-golden elemental power swelling to the extreme, revealing the dignity that he usually displayed in the battlefield!

But all of this was too weak against someone of the Green-clothed Venerable’s realm.

The golden longsword flickered close at hand; in such a moment, the Green-clothed Venerable even had time and the mood to sneer, saying disdainfully, "National Guardian Martial God, so that’s all it is."

"Green Lotus Kill!"

In a flash, the previously silent Green-clothed Venerable suddenly shouted aloud, his entire body pouring out strong elemental power, startling Dongfang Haoxuan’s sword-wielding right hand into a momentary pause.

"Boom..."

A green light condensed into a lotus flower, which thunderously struck Dongfang Haoxuan’s right arm. A dull sound echoed, shattering the stone slabs where they were standing.

"Crack..."

The sword that had accompanied Dongfang Haoxuan in his battles was shattered into pieces by the immense elemental power of the Green-clothed Venerable, the crisp sound of it breaking ringing out, leaving numerous iron filings that vanished with the gentle wind.

"Ah..."

Not only the sword, but at this moment, the sinews in Dongfang Haoxuan’s entire right arm were already pulverized. Although it didn’t break, his right arm was now entirely useless! Even the National Guardian Martial God, bold and unyielding, could not help but cry out in pain at the sudden fracture of his right arm.

The Lianyun Empire’s National Guardian Martial God, Dongfang Haoxuan, was crippled of his right arm in a single encounter by the Green-clothed Venerable, showing how formidable his strength indeed was!

Grasping his bleeding right arm, Dongfang Haoxuan retreated repeatedly, his desire for battle with the newcomer vanishing under the overwhelming power. This man, who could stir up trouble throughout the Lianyun Empire, for the first time felt fear in his heart!

"Who... are you people!? Why did you do such a thing!"

Though fearful, Dongfang Haoxuan’s resolute face was distorted by pain, yet there wasn’t the slightest hint of cowardice, clenching his teeth, he asked in a deep voice.

The Green-clothed Venerable took in Dongfang Haoxuan’s pathetic state, sneered coldly, "Why did we do this? You should blame your daughter for doing rebellious deeds that implicated the clan, deserving such!"

My daughter...

Instantly, Dongfang Haoxuan thought of Dongfang Ziyue, having some understanding of his daughter’s experiences outside, at least he was aware of the Beiyao Ancient Clan!

Immediately, his face sank as he shouted coldly, "Are you from the Beiyao Ancient Clan!? What exactly happened to Ziyue!?"

The mention of Dongfang Ziyue originally suppressed the fury within the Green-clothed Venerable, but brought it back to the surface again.

As the head of the Five Supreme Venerables, due to his oversight, Dongfang Ziyue and Lin Zifeng destroyed the Human Sacrifice Tower, and not only that, because of his arrogance, he was outwitted by Lin Zifeng, allowing them both to escape from the Beiyao Ancient Clan!

Thinking of this, the Green-clothed Venerable’s sinister expression twisted with rage, looking at Dongfang Haoxuan with his right arm clutched in agony, wanting nothing more than to kill him!

"Dongfang Ziyue is doing well now, but soon she will reunite with you below!"

Before the words finished, the blue light in the Green-clothed Venerable’s hand reached its peak, his body twisting, his right palm transforming into wind, reaching for Dongfang Haoxuan’s throat.

"Crunch..."

The crisp sound of bone cracking echoed, and in Dongfang Haoxuan’s eyes filled with anger and reluctance, shock slowly rose.

Years of being a distinguished person had dulled the edge honed by his blood-filled experiences, leaving him unable to imagine that in the capital of the Lianyun Empire, inside the heavily guarded Martial God Marquis Mansion, he had been killed!

A generation of generals, National Guardian Martial God, just like that, he fell down with reluctance and shock, his towering figure crashing heavily onto the slabs, the loud, dull sound now sounding so absurd and tragic.

Slaying Dongfang Haoxuan, the Green-clothed Venerable’s face remained unchanged, indifferent. To him, Dongfang Haoxuan was merely an ant; if he desired, utilizing the full power of the Beiyao Ancient Clan, annihilating the entire Lianyun Empire wasn’t impossible!

"Whish..."

As the Green-clothed Venerable stood aside, coldly observing his subordinates as they slaughtered, there came a sharp, piercing sound from behind, fiercely attacking his back.

Facing such fierce attacks, the Green-clothed Venerable sneered, and with just a flash, he avoided it, turning his head with a cold smile to scrutinize the person who had come.
