Chapter 1328 - 1262: No Regrets Until Death!
"Because you are the heirs of the State Preceptor."
"If I don’t kill you today, when you betray us in the future, the entire Qin Empire will be afflicted with catastrophe."
"So only by your destruction can this disaster be prevented!"
The Heart Demon spoke expressionlessly, his cold eyes like a death god from hell, chilling the soul!
"Who dares to cause trouble on my territory?"
But before the Heart Demon could finish, a deep voice echoed from the mountains beyond the city.
The voice was like thunder, resonating across the sky for thousands of miles!
The Heart Demon looked up, his eyes glinting with coldness.
But the people in the city were ecstatic!
"Great Ancestor, please save us."
"This person has gone mad, claiming he will kill all of our kin."
"You must not let them escape!"
The people shouted.
"You beast, if you’re so brave, don’t run away; watch how Great Ancestor deals with you."
"Not just the Great Ancestor, but all the elder ancestors will surely come, their divine skills vast; you all just wait for your deaths!"
"I don’t even know what your eyes are for, daring to provoke us?"
"Watch, your fate will be very miserable!"
Some people kept yelling at the Heart Demon and his group, along with Thunder Leopard, with sneering cold laughs.
"Noise!"
Wang Yishan shouted furiously.
With a sudden flick of his hand, Battle Intent surged like a tide, sweeping across the sky!
"Run quickly!"
People above the city scrambled in panic.
Swish!
However at this moment.
An aged figure appeared out of nowhere in front.
It was an old man in red robes, standing seven feet tall, his youthful face and wizened hair conveying a vigorous stature.
His dark eyes emitted a piercing cold aura!
The moment the old man appeared, without a word, he raised his arm and delivered a palm strike.
A surge of fiery Battle Intent sprang forth, transforming into a sky-covering wave of fire, attacking Wang Yishan’s Battle Intent.
Rumble!
The two Battle Intents met with a thunderous clash.
Wang Yishan immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, stumbled backwards a few steps.
"So strong!"
His pupils constricted as he cautiously watched the old man in red.
This person’s cultivation had reached the peak of Nine-Star War Emperor realm!
"Great Ancestor, kill them quickly, avenge our kin!"
Several middle-aged men ran up to the old man in red, glaring furiously at the Heart Demon and his companions, shouting.
"Rest assured."
"Today not one of them will escape."
The old man in red smiled sinisterly, saying, "I must see who is bold enough!"
Finished speaking.
He looked up at the Heart Demon.
Immediately.
The old man in red’s eyes widened, his old face full of disbelief!
In contrast, the Heart Demon had a playful look.
"How can it be you?"
The old man in red seemed to see a ghost, his previous confidence vanished, replaced by panic.
The Heart Demon mocked, "I heard you just say that today not one of us will escape, now tell me, do you really have that capability?"
The old man’s body stiffened, his face alternated between green and red.
"Great Ancestor, what’s going on?"
"Who is he?"
"Why are you so scared?"
Those middle-aged men, perplexed, gazed at the old man in red.
"He is..."
The old man’s throat felt dry, as though something blocked it; the words he wanted to speak couldn’t come out.
"Who is he, really?"
Someone shouted anxiously.
"He is Qin Feiyang, everyone run!"
"Second brother, immediately notify father, tell him Qin Feiyang has arrived, return for support!"
The old man in red exerted all his strength, letting out a mighty roar, echoing like a bell!
"What?"
"He is Qin Feiyang?"
Upon hearing the old man’s voice, the entire island plunged into a deadly silence, silence so profound you could hear a pin drop.
But in the next moment!
The place erupted, every person turned pale, each filled with terror!
"Damn it!"
"How can it be him?"
"How could he find this place?"
"Run quickly!"
"Don’t look back!"
No one expected the fearsome figure before them to be the notorious Qin Feiyang.
In this moment.
Except for the old man in red, everyone was frantically fleeing, terrified beyond measure!
"Father?"
The Heart Demon hesitated slightly, glancing suspiciously at the old man in red, then waved his hand, "Thunder Leopard, go immediately, don’t let anyone spread the word."
"By your command!"
Thunder Leopard roared to the sky, harnessing cataclysmic thunder power, he dashed towards the mountains.
"Your opponent is me!"
The old man in red shouted angrily, rushing to intercept.
"Incorrect."
"Your opponents are us."
Wang Yangfeng and Wang Yishan exchanged a glance, immediately joining forces to attack the old man in red.
"You think the two of you can block me?"
The old man in red laughed furiously, refusing to yield, raising both fists, he exploded towards them!
Battle Intent roared, shaking all directions!
"You won’t know until you try!"
Wang Yangfeng snorted coldly.
They were equally unwilling to retreat, throwing their fists, violently striking!
Boom!!
In an instant, four fists clashed thunderously.
Wang Yangfeng and Wang Yishan were immediately shaken back, blood dripping from their mouths.
But the old man in red merely retreated a few steps, his face showing slight paleness.
"Though we are all Nine-Star War Emperors, I have reached the peak of Nine-Star War Emperor, just one step from Pseudo God, no matter your skills in Heaven and Earth, you are not a match for me!"
The old man in red spoke disdainfully.
"Stop boasting!"
Wang Yangfeng shouted angrily.
"New grudges and old, today we settle all!"
Wang Yishan shouted furiously.
Boom!!
The two unleashed their full momentum and joined forces once more, their bodies exuding a palpable killing aura!
Boom!
At the same time.
The battle on the other side of the mountain also erupted.
Nine elders soared into the sky, battling fiercely with Thunder Leopard!
The aura emanating from the nine elders was almost equivalent to the old man in red.
Clearly.
Their cultivation had already reached the peak of the Nine-Star War Emperor.
But!
Though Thunder Leopard fought alone, he showed no signs of being overpowered. The astounding fierce power surged in all directions, manifesting a kingly demeanor that looked down upon the world!
Besides them, there was another group of people, rushing out from the mountains, their killing intent palpable as they flew this way.
And their eyes were all locked onto the Heart Demon!
Capture the leader first!
Their plan was to capture the Heart Demon.
As long as they captured the Heart Demon, the others would fall without a fight.
"Each one more naive than the other."
The Heart Demon swept his gaze over them, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.
Swish!!!
The next moment.
Numerous figures and fierce beasts appeared out of nowhere behind the Heart Demon.
"What?"
"So many Nine-Star War Emperors and Nine-Star Emperor Beasts?"
The old man in red turned livid.
And in the moment of his distraction, Wang Yangfeng and Wang Yishan seized the opportunity to punch him in the chest. With a pfft, the old man in red sprayed a mouthful of furious blood and crashed into the city below.
"Kill!"
The two exchanged glances, filled with immense killing intent, and dove downward.
The Heart Demon coldly smiled and pointed towards the mountain, shouting, "Go help, leave no one."
"Brothers, kill!"
The Seahorse and Seal roared as they charged at the forefront.
Though they were rulers of the Reincarnation Sea, such a grand spectacle was a first for them, causing the blood within them to boil uncontrollably.
Seeing their frenzy, the blood of the other hundred plus Nine-Star Emperor Beasts surged instantly, and they swooped towards the mountains en masse!
"Haha..."
"They are all my minions. You old bastards, do you feel particularly hopeless now?"
Thunder Leopard laughed heartily.
But the faces of the nine elders battling him were extremely grim!
Qin Feiyang came prepared!
"Young master, should we stay to protect you?"
The sixteen Nine-Star War Emperors in the village stood by the Heart Demon, surveying the battlefield vigilantly.
"No need."
"Go help Thunder Leopard; do not give anyone a chance to send news."
The Heart Demon said.
"Yes!"
The sixteen replied respectfully, then streaked across the sky like lightning towards the mountains.
The Heart Demon lowered his head, looking at the old man in red, coldly smiling: "See? They were all cultivated by the State Preceptor, yet now, they are at my disposal."
"Pfft!"
Hearing this, the old man in red immediately felt an attack in his heart, spraying a mouthful of old blood.
Wang Yangfeng and Wang Yishan struck his chest again; with the sound of bones cracking, his chest instantly collapsed inward.
Almost to the point of shattering his heart!
"Since you’ve gained freedom, why do you still serve Qin Feiyang? What’s the difference from before?"
The old man in red roared.
"Of course there’s a difference."
"The State Preceptor captured us, seeing us as cannon fodder, livestock to be raised."
"But the young master is different; he treats every one of us sincerely, like friends, like family."
"To serve him, we do so willingly, without regret till death!"
The two shouted, unleashing peak combat power, attacking the old man in red from left and right.
"To be a pawn willingly, without regret till death—isn’t that ridiculous!"
The old man in red sneered repeatedly, taking a healing pill and engaging once more in battle with the two.
Boom!
Mountains crumbled, earth sank, resembling an apocalyptic scene!
"Such loyalty..."
"None of you have let me down..."
The Heart Demon muttered to himself.
At first, in the ancient tower, when Qin Feiyang planned to spare Wang Yangfeng and the others, he thought Qin Feiyang was too soft-hearted.
But now.
He found that Qin Feiyang’s actions were right.
Because if Qin Feiyang hadn’t taken those actions back then, he wouldn’t have a group of loyal subordinates now.
"Am I ill?"
"To agree with my master’s actions?"
"No, if this keeps on, I won’t be the Heart Demon anymore."
The Heart Demon shook his head vigorously, vanishing the next moment.
In truth, the more he denied, the deeper his feelings for everyone.
Inside the ancient tower!
The Heart Demon hovered above the village, shouting, "All War Emperors gather."
Whoosh!!!
Immediately.
Figures soared into the sky one after the other.
Within five breaths.
Over a thousand War Emperors in the village had all gathered in the void in front of the Heart Demon.
The Heart Demon was very satisfied with everyone’s speed.
He waved his hand, leading everyone to appear above the island.
"This..."
Seeing the brutal battlefield before them, everyone was left speechless.
Have they ever seen such an array?
The Heart Demon said: "Your task is to kill everyone below the War Emperor level!"
"Young master, isn’t this..."
An old woman spoke.
The Heart Demon asked, "You mean, cruel?"
The old woman did not deny it.
"If they aren’t killed today, many will die at their hands in the future, including perhaps yourselves."
"Moreover, they are refining Bloodfiend Pills, with monstrous debts; shouldn’t such people be eliminated?"
"You call me cruel; I do not deny it, nor do I regret it."
"If the heavens want to punish, I am willing to bear all the sins alone."
"Now, do as I say immediately!"
The Heart Demon commanded.
"Yes!"
The group responded respectfully, then transformed into streaks of light, rushing in all directions.
"In this world, good and evil, right and wrong, who can really tell?"
The Heart Demon raised his head to the sky, muttering to himself, then shifted his gaze, scanning the island below.
Where are mother and the villagers held?
