Realms In The Firmament - Chapter 1815
Chapter 1815: Tell Meng Wuzhen, I am Going to Kill Him!
“There is no way to escape.” The Tiger in the Dream breathed a sigh. He looked sad.
They were exposed. If he kept talking about escaping, he was only going to be humiliated.
It was an army of millions of spiritual beasts. They couldn’t run, because there was no way for the three hundred men to run. They couldn’t defeat all those beasts…
While the Tiger in the Dream was lost, a sharp stream of sword light dashed over the sky.
The forest where they were hiding in was chopped half off. The three hundred men were exposed.
The beasts knew that it was time for them to put on a show. They kept roaring and picking up the tree trunks. There were no woods anymore, but only three isolated men.
The beasts ran to Ye Xiao and waved their tails, asking for credits. They were such a bunch of bootlickers to Ye Xiao.
‘Master! We did everything you told! We have done a good job! After these men die, can we be free? Can we?’
Ye Xiao rolled his eyes up and blandly talked to the enemies. “Lady Red Phoenix, it has been quite a while. You look ill. What is the matter? It seems you are living with a heavy burden in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. Do you want me to give you some treatment? It is free…”
The Red Phoenix was shaking. “Ye Xiao, why are you doing this? Just do what you have to do! If I ever frown, I am not the Red Phoenix!”
Ye Xiao shook his head and said, “I am doing nothing. The Monarch’s Hall is a small force. We are trying to survive the Human Realm Upon Heavens. It is such a shame. I failed to keep my brothers safe. They died, and it hurt me so bad.”
“I know the reason. It is simple. We messed with the Hall of Returning Nature.” Ye Xiao blandly said, “The Hall of Returning Nature, what a great force! Three months’ continual battles killed most of my men.”
“Maybe this is what a martial world really is like. It is a shame that I only got to see it clearly today. How reality hurts!” Ye Xiao’s eyes shined chilling lights. It was merciless. “Martial world means killing!”
The Red Phoenix took a deep breath and said, “You are right. This is the martial world. Killing is all we have in the martial world. The stronger lives while the weaker dies! You win, so you are right!
“The Hall of Returning Nature lost the war. I won’t deny it. You got us. You are right. Whatever you want to do, we won’t stop it.”
The Red Phoenix said, “This is the martial world, and the winner has his rights.”
Ye Xiao shook his head and sighed. “I am impressed by you. I always liked you, a brave lady. However, we are enemies. There is nothing I can do to change the fact.
“When Master Meng built the Hall of Returning Nature, he had the One Dragon, Two Tigers, Three Phoenixes, Four Kong Warriors, and Eight Sky Masters. That was incredible! Well, this is sad. After this, will the Hall of Returning Nature become a much weaker force because of me?”
The Golden Phoenix coughed and angrily said, “Our young master has a lot of superior cultivators. We aren’t that important. The Hall of Returning Nature is ruling the world. It won’t be any weaker. We will fight back. Wait and see!”
“Well, I am relieved.” Ye Xiao nodded. “I was very worried. Would Master Meng lose hope after he loses you guys? Since he won’t, I think I will take my time here now. To be honest, you guys are not enough to fill my beasts’ belly. It is such a big problem to feed all these beasts…”
He was talking gently and nicely like talking to one of his friends, complaining about the problem of life.
However, for the Red Phoenix and the Golden Phoenix, what Ye Xiao said made them feel cold.
“You should be proud. Do you know that?” Ye Xiao sighed. “This army of beasts, I wanted to save it for somebody else… Now I have used it on you guys. In fact, it isn’t fair for Master Meng… It certainly is unlucky for the man to whom I planned to use this army.”
Ye Xiao looked in the distance and sighed. “When I meet that man someday, it is going to be a tough fight for me. I am not happy about this.”
The Red Phoenix angrily said, “You are not happy. So what?”
“I am not happy, so I will have to do something about it. Why do you ask, lady?” Ye Xiao smiled and said, “I am trying to survive this dangerous world. I am showing kindness to everybody. I don’t want any trouble. However, trouble keeps coming for me. Nobody dares to have a fair fight anymore. It is all about power. I think I am going to stop staying low, because people may keep underestimating me.
“We were bullied. I can’t let that happen. I have to fight back. Otherwise, how does the Monarch’s Hall live in this world? I don’t think there is any fair way to solve any conflict anymore.
“Your master is the crown prince of the West Sky, Meng Wuzhen. He has stepped in my way. Well, it could be an opportunity for me… I can tell the world, that I will kill even the crown prince of the West Sky if he dares to mess with me!”
He blandly said, “Well, it turns out to be a good thing for me. How things change!”
The Golden Phoenix viciously said, “You? You want to kill my master? Come on. Stop dreaming. What do you think you are?”
“I am not something.” Ye Xiao blandly said, “I am a man! Your master, however, is not a man for me… He is a dead body that luckily still breathes.”
Ye Xiao said, “Do you hear that? The voice in the wind? Isn’t it piteous? Isn’t it angry? It is the voice of the hundreds of thousands of souls that died for the Monarch’s Hall! They are asking me to avenge them! Killing you is not enough. I have to kill Meng Wuzhen!”
The Red Phoenix shivered.
The wind was howling. She felt like it was the whispering of the dead souls.
“I am depressed. I made a mistake, and my brothers died because of it. I have to avenge them… Or else…” Ye Xiao took a deep breath and shouted to the sky.
His shout pierced the clouds!
“All the brothers who died for the Monarch’s Hall, I swear to you!” Ye Xiao said, “I will destroy the Hall of Returning Nature! I will kill for Monarch’s Hall! I will avenge you all, brothers! I promise!”
The voice reached the clouds. Something was shaking beyond the clouds in the sky.
After that, a stream of purple light shot down and got into Ye Xiao’s body.
“Approved!”
It sounded from somewhere.
It seemed to be the voice from beyond the heavens.
The Heavenly Dao had approved his vow!
The Golden Phoenix and the Red Phoenix were frightened.
“What a bastard!” The Golden Phoenix shouted. She was severely injured, but at this moment, she seemed to regain a bursting power. She suddenly dashed out fast, and her sword was moving toward Ye Xiao. She gritted her teeth and stared at Ye Xiao viciously.
“I don’t kill women.” Ye Xiao was indifferent. “But this is an exception… You have to die today! I will avenge my brothers. I don’t care if you are a woman or not!”
He raised up one hand and grabbed the moving sword in time. – Crack! – The sword was broken into pieces. Ye Xiao didn’t stop. His hand moved forward and hit the Golden Phoenix’s chest.
“Pah…”
The Golden Phoenix spat out blood and flew out immediately. After that, she became a blood mist in the sky. She was gone.
One palm hit, Ye Xiao killed both the woman’s body and soul!
He wanted her dead, so he didn’t show mercy.
The battle went on for three months. The Golden Phoenix had killed thousands of the people of the Monarch’s Hall!
Ye Xiao hated her so much. He wanted to kill her!
“Go! Kill them all! Leave the Red Phoenix. She will deliver my message to Meng Wuzhen! That is my promise. I will spare her!” Ye Xiao waved one hand and coldly said.
“Ahwoo…”
The beasts were howling and running out excitedly…
The Tiger in the Dream made a long sigh. With a long sword in his hand, he blandly said, “I have traveled the world as a powerful cultivator. I can’t die in the mouth of some beast! Ye Xiao, I will take vengeance in my next life!”
His sword shined. He stabbed it into his own heart.
The next moment, the sword exploded inside him. The Tiger in the Dream became a blood mist in the sky just like the Golden Phoenix.
The Tiger in the Dream exploded his own body and became a mist in the sky. The beasts couldn’t eat him if they wanted to.
He just didn’t want to become food in the beasts’ mouth.
He would rather explode himself and turn into a mist!
It was the dignity of a powerful cultivator.
The three hundred men of the Hall of Returning Nature weren’t so lucky. They were surrounded by the beasts. Within seconds, they died.
Nothing was left of them. The beasts ate everything!
The Red Phoenix was scared. She wanted to kill herself, but she was too powerless to kill herself.
The others were dead in the mouth of the beasts. Her heart was bleeding.
“Ye Xiao! Kill me!” The Red Phoenix cried in tears.
“I want to, but you are the only one left. If you die, nobody goes back to Meng Wuzhen.” Ye Xiao blandly looked at her. “Do you know why I picked you? You kept your promise when you said you would let Master Guan go. You don’t break your word.”
“I want you to go and tell Meng Wuzhen everything. I promised Jin Wei I would spare one person. I don’t break my word.” Ye Xiao said, “I will never stop fighting Meng Wuzhen!”
Ye Xiao turned around and waved his hand. “Retreat!”
Then he left.
The army of beasts retreated.
After a while, the area was back to peace. The Red Phoenix was the only person in this place.
As she looked around the blood within the three thousand miles, she spat out blood. The Hall of Returning Nature had been winning. She had a great army, but there was no army anymore, just herself. She couldn’t make it anymore, and she fell to the floor…
‘Master… We… We were wrong… We shouldn’t have messed with Ye Xiao…’
Before she passed out, that was the only thought she had.
…
