Chapter 535 - 542: The Huo Family Ancestors Are Wiped Out

But Song Wanning’s performance made them feel utterly hopeless.

She was acting as if she were on steroids, her face flushed and rosy. There wasn’t the slightest sign that her Spiritual Power was about to run out.

They, on the other hand, had been casting Spells one after another, rapidly depleting their Spiritual Energy. Yet they couldn’t even touch the hem of her clothes; everything was blocked by that Immortal Furnace.

One could only imagine their frustration.

Another fifteen minutes passed, and the two finally couldn’t hold on any longer.

Their spiritual power and Spiritual Energy were almost completely depleted, and there were barely any unbroken bones left in their bodies...

BOOM—

A bolt of Divine Thunder suddenly descended, engulfing the already despairing Second Ancestor.

"AHHH—!"

The Second Ancestor was already exhausted. Now, with no strength left to resist, he took the full, direct impact of the Divine Thunder.

"Second Brother!"

The Great Ancestor’s heart seized with alarm. In that moment of distraction, Song Wanning’s fist appeared behind him once again.

BOOM—

Her fist landed squarely on the back of his head.

In that instant, his eyes flew wide open. A flash of disbelief crossed his face, but it was overshadowed by indignation.

’Who would have thought that after dominating for countless years, we would fall at the hands of a woman like this?’

’I can’t accept this!’

’I can’t accept this!!!!’

BOOM—

The Great Ancestor’s head was smashed to pieces by the punch, sending brains and viscera splattering everywhere.

Along with it, his Nascent Soul was shattered as well.

And so, the Great Ancestor perished, completely erased from this world.

The Divine Thunder dissipated, revealing the Second Ancestor collapsed on the ground.

He was barely clinging to life. When he saw the Great Ancestor’s corpse, his pupils instantly shrank.

"No—!"

The Second Ancestor cried out in anguish, tears instantly streaming down his face.

He was grieving for the Great Ancestor, but also wailing for his own fate.

’We shouldn’t have come. We shouldn’t have come!!’

The Second Ancestor’s eyes were bloodshot. His gaze was filled with a hatred so intense he looked as if he wanted to tear Song Wanning to pieces.

But Song Wanning just stood there, watching him dispassionately. There wasn’t the slightest ripple of emotion in her eyes, as if she were looking at a dead man.

The Second Ancestor was panicking, but he would never allow himself to beg for mercy.

"If you have the guts, then kill me! But our Huo Family will never yield to you!!"

"One day, you will die at the hands of the Huo Family!"

"Hahahaha—!"

Having spat out his threat, the Second Ancestor threw his head back and laughed.

"Heh."

Song Wanning suddenly sneered, a mocking smile playing on her lips. "It seems you’re determined to have me annihilate the entire Huo Family, are you?"

She was truly a living King Yan.

He was a fool for spouting such threats at a time like this.

At her words, the Second Ancestor’s laughter died abruptly, and his face instantly turned crimson.

"You— you dare—!"

He raised a trembling hand, wishing he could slap himself twice.

If Song Wanning really did annihilate the Huo Family, then he would truly become the clan’s greatest sinner.

"Watch me."

Song Wanning tilted her head with a smile, then, before the Second Ancestor’s shocked and terrified eyes, she slashed out with her sword.

Long unable to gather his Spiritual Energy, the Second Ancestor watched in despair as the blade’s light flashed past. His resentful eyes held nothing but endless hatred and regret.

’If I could do it all over again, I would never have let the Huo Family provoke this monster!’

BOOM—

The sword light fell, and the Second Ancestor was instantly decapitated.

The flash of the blade split his head in two and shattered his Nascent Soul along with it.

With that, both Mahayana cultivators had fallen.

The ancestors of the Huo Family were completely wiped out.

"Ugh—"

After it was all done, Song Wanning let out a muffled grunt as a trickle of blood escaped the corner of her mouth.

She wiped it away coldly, her eyes still filled with lingering killing intent.

Looking down at the Immortal Furnace in her hand, a smile touched Song Wanning’s lips.

’Thank goodness I had this Immortal Artifact. Otherwise, it’s uncertain if I could have won this time.’

She put away their Storage Rings.

She wouldn’t annihilate the entire Huo Family. The karmic debt from such a massacre would be too heavy and could affect her future ascension.

But since the Huo Family had provoked her repeatedly, she had to collect some interest.

So, she took the two corpses and headed for the Huo Family estate.

At that very moment, the Huo Clan Leader and elders were still waiting for good news from their ancestors.

However, before any news arrived, disciples came rushing in, frantic with panic.

"It’s bad! It’s bad! Song Wanning is here!!!"

The people of the Huo Family had practically burned Song Wanning’s appearance into their Divine Souls, recognizing her on sight.

But no one dared to intercept her.

"What?"

The Huo Clan Leader shot to his feet, his face instantly turning deathly pale.

He was overcome with a premonition of disaster, and his heart began to pound.

But the surrounding elders were filled with rage, completely unaware of the gravity of the situation.

"Heh, she dares to show her face here?"

"She truly has no respect for our Huo Family!"

"Perfect! Her coming here saves us the trouble of hunting her down!"

"Let me go and deal with her! I’ll avenge them!"

One after another, the elders were riled up, and without another word, they stalked outside.

The Clan Leader followed behind them with a grave expression, feeling that something was terribly wrong.

But seeing everyone’s furious expressions, he gradually regained a sliver of confidence.

But after taking only a few steps, the once-boisterous crowd suddenly fell silent. The sprawling family estate became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

The Clan Leader looked over uneasily and saw that Song Wanning had indeed arrived.

Only, she was carrying two very familiar-looking corpses.

THUD—

The bodies were casually tossed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

And with them, everyone’s hearts were shattered.

Because those corpses were none other than the two ancestors.

"An— Ancestors?"

The Clan Leader’s voice trembled. He felt as if the sky itself had fallen.

’The ancestors were our foundation, and now they’re dead?’

"You— you killed the ancestors?"

An elder, finally processing the scene, pointed a violently shaking hand at Song Wanning.

"You’ll pay with your life—!"

With that, the elder charged at Song Wanning like a madman.

A Body Integration Realm Cultivator fighting an Out-of-Body Stage opponent should be able to win in a single move.

But Song Wanning merely flickered, then brought a fist down, instantly blowing the elder’s head apart.

The splattering viscera landed on the surrounding disciples, immediately provoking a chorus of screams. They scattered in a mad panic, not daring to make an enemy of Song Wanning.

The remaining elders were instantly dumbstruck. They scrambled backward, huddling together, their gazes fixed on Song Wanning in utter terror.

"Before these two died, they gifted me the Huo Family’s treasure vault. I’m here to collect now. You don’t have any objections, do you?"

’Last time I came, I had to be sneaky.’

’Now I can empty the treasure vault openly. How wonderful is that?’

The corner of Song Wanning’s lip curled slightly as she took in each and every one of their expressions.

’Anyone who objects will end up just like the corpses on the ground.’

"This—"

A flash of panic crossed the Clan Leader’s eyes, but it was quickly replaced by despair.

He glanced at the disciples, then closed his eyes, knowing with absolute certainty in his heart that the Huo Family was finished.

To protect everyone’s lives, he could only make a painful decision.

"Please, be my guest—"
