Chapter 466 - 466: Yu Clan Annihilation
Chapter 466: Chapter 466: Yu Clan Annihilation
Rain King’s Mansion, grand and vast, with high walls densely covered in characters; it was a tremendously large estate that once shone brightly in glory.
However, after the Great Demonic God and Shi Hao, both grandfather and grandson, sequentially dismantled the mansion, the Yu Clan’s reputation plummeted, becoming a laughingstock for a time.
They harbored deep hatred towards Shi Hao’s lineage, whether due to the grudge of Dual Pupils or the personal enmity with Little Stone, the hostility had accumulated to an irreconcilable extent.
This wasn’t Shi Hao’s first visit here, yet the feeling was profoundly different, as now he was dressed in a golden lion, brimming with True Dragon, carrying the Battle Halberd on his back, and wielding the Divine Spirit Law Sword, his power unmatched.
Behind him stood a large troop of soldiers, all silent, clad in black armor that gleamed with a cold luster, their battle spears uniformly pointed forward.
The Imperial Decree of the Divine had already been sent in advance. Inside the Yu Manor, it was very quiet, with not a sound to be heard as everyone had withdrawn into the courtyard.
“Those plotting rebellion shall be executed! However, not everyone in the clan is guilty, aside from the main culprits, those who lay down their arms shall be spared from the death penalty,” a War General shouted into the mansion.
Still, it was quiet; the people of the Yu Clan seemed to be plotting and deliberating, finding it hard to make a decision.
“Shish!”
Inside the Yu Manor, a bright light surged as someone sacrificed, attempting to forcibly open a void passage through the power of an altar, planning to escape.
“This is futile!” a robust War General shouted, for the Stone Capital had already activated the city protection formation. The Stone Country’s imperial family had also activated their altar early, affecting the entire city, preventing any escape through clan altars.
Indeed, the bright light soon extinguished, and the void trembled violently.
“Little Stone, you are ruthless and cold-blooded, annihilating my Yu Clan like this will surely bring you retribution,” finally, a hateful voice cursed loudly from inside the mansion.
Shi Hao remained indifferent, paying no heed.
Behind him, a powerful War General roared, “What face does your Yu Clan have to say this? You colluded with the Outer Domain’s Great Sect to overthrow Stone Country’s heritage, yet you dare to pretend to be the victims? Moreover, the New Emperor is merciful and doesn’t wish to annihilate your entire clan but only to kill the masterminds. Yet, you still slander us, deserving of execution!”
“Do you wish for extermination?” an Imperial Title rushed over, directly rebuking loudly.
There was a disturbance inside the Yu Manor, clearly not everyone wanted to “perish together,” many wished to survive.
“The New Emperor has ascended the throne, traditionally granting a general amnesty to show mercy, but you so blatantly raise your arms, surely a brutal tyrant to die tragically in chaos!” someone within the Yu Clan cursed maliciously.
“Senseless, at the end of your path, yet you still dare to slander, it seems the Yu Clan’s luck has run out, destined for extermination,” an Imperial Title spoke coldly.
“Time’s up, prepare to attack,” Shi Hao, who had been silent, now spoke.
“Dong!”
Behind him, the soldiers swiftly advanced forward, each raising their weapons, causing battle fury to surge sky high.
“Kill!”
Shi Hao stood his ground without moving, simply uttering one word, and the War Generals and soldiers followed with a loud shout, swinging their Battle Swords and iron spears, cleaving forward.
Waves of light, like divine rainbows converging, rushed toward the Rain King’s Mansion, turning into a dazzling ocean of horror.
Those following the emperor were naturally extremely powerful, such an assembled battle team was terrifyingly formidable, sweeping through thousands of troops effortlessly.
Just in the first encounter, the gatehouse and courtyard walls of the Yu Clan crumbled, the mysterious arrays protecting them proving insufficient, reducing them to ruins and sending dust billowing into the sky.
“Kill!”
The cry rose again, a group of War Generals leading tigers and wolves over the rubble, swinging their weapons like a torrent, steamrolling over everything.
The blazing battle fury connected like a fierce sun, surging forward in a thunderous roar, smashing four courtyard complexes of the Yu Clan’s mansion consecutively.
Stones soared into the sky, dust arose from all directions, the vast Rain King’s Mansion, once grand halls, all exploded, the earth cracked. In the face of the formidable army, even protective arrays were ineffective.
Through this, Shi Hao was indifferent, never lifting a hand, merely watching from outside the mansion, flanked by powerful guards, unmoving, providing protection.
In fact, who in this world could harm him? Especially here in the capital, surrounded by True Dragon, he was Invulnerable to All Methods. His protection now was merely a display of dignity.
“Little Stone, you won’t be arrogant for long. It won’t be long before the Outer Domain’s Great Sect descends, and then I will see how you resist, you will surely die horribly!” a vindictive curse came from within the Yu Clan’s Mansion.
At the same time, torrential rain began to fall in the world, a display of Divine Skills by powerful members of the Yu Clan, implementing secret techniques to counter the external soldiers.
Accompanied by lightning, the heavy rain curtain emitted an extremely terrifying aura, and some raindrops, clear and sharp like flying knives, swept densely, striking everyone.
“Trivial feat,” an Imperial Title intervened, stepping in front of the soldiers, with a wave of his sleeves, he shattered all the rain knives with a boom, turning them into falling rain.
Yet, the situation did not stop there, within the Yu Clan, a giant lotus bloomed, exceptionally dazzling amidst the lightning—clear and exceedingly fierce.
It emitted an extremely astonishing fluctuation, the aura horrifyingly intimidating, causing all nearby to shudder, even the War Generals felt chills.
Rain Path Ninth Heaven!
This wasn’t the first time Shi Hao had seen it, having personally contested it in the past, relying on the black figurine—Undying Golden Body, he stood at the level of the Imperial Titles, and cracked this Divine Skill.
It was a terrifying Divine Skill, which in the end almost revived the Rain God, summoning his projection, extremely horrifying.
Currently, the entire Yu Clan was taking action, as this was a large-scale Divine Skill, requiring many to perform, the more people, the stronger it became, otherwise, how could it dare proclaim itself as Rain Path Ninth Heaven.
“Strike now, don’t let it ascend to the eighth or ninth heaven, lest it summon the Rain God,” a War General bellowed.
All raised their weapons, shouting loudly with boiling battle fervor, and charged forward. With a dong, amidst dazzling light, the lotus was shattered, treasure light soaring into the sky, densely covered in characters.
However, the brilliance quickly reversed, mana converged anew, and the lotus bloomed for the second time, its power increased significantly, growing even stronger.
Repeatedly, the massive lotus grew as tall as the heavens, destroyed and reborn, its aura terrifying and overwhelming.
The Yu Clan, young and old, were all driving it; this time was even more fearsome than when Shi Hao had contended against it, and during several recent clashes, some soldiers had already been wounded.
“There’s no time to delay for you,” Shi Hao spoke, his voice indifferent, echoing like thunder, exceedingly domineering.
Who could dare to despise an Imperial Titles family like the Yu Clan? Clearly, Little Stone had such qualifications, being the emperor, and now thinking of extinguishing this clan was not difficult.
He did not mobilize more powerhouses to act but stepped forward himself, with a clang he drew a golden Battle Sword, a Divine Spirit Artifact, and swept it forward.
With a boom, the entire heavens and earth roared, golden light in myriad layers, submerging the Yu Manor, the scene terrifyingly overwhelming!
The power of a single sword shook the capital, everyone who saw it felt a chill, Little Stone’s strength exceeded imagination, and coupled with the imperial family’s Magic Sword, he was simply invincible under heaven.
Golden sword light penetrated heaven and earth, the giant lotus was cleaved on the spot and withered irreversibly, never blooming again.
This sword was too strong, slaying many people from the Yu Clan, blood light appearing, a group of powerhouses met their doom.
“Attack!” Shi Hao sheathed his sword and stood, uttering just one word, his body enshrouded in True Dragon energy, his aura astonishing.
Around him, some War Generals, and a host of soldiers surged forward, murder boiling like the Star River, overwhelming, piercing through the palace halls ahead.
Battle cries filled the sky, but they didn’t last too long.
The Yu Clan indeed was formidable, but how could it compare with the power of a whole country? This time Shi Hao had only brought a portion of War Generals, later joined by two Imperial Titles, and the Yu Clan couldn’t withstand them.
In a short time, the place turned into ruins, nearly flattened.
Only at the very center was there a Divine Temple, a place of worship for the Rain God, which had become their refuge, everyone hiding there.
“Young man, you are too oppressive!” In front of the ancient temple, an elderly man whose legs were lost glared bitterly and fiercely at the stoic young emperor.
“It’s the Rain King!” someone exclaimed.
He had been missing for a long time, once his legs were broken by the Great Demonic God Grandpa Fifteen, this powerful Imperial Title, nearly stepping into the Venerable Realm, had been halted, always looking for a way to heal his body.
“Boom!”
The Rain King took an Imperial Decree of the Divine from the altar, bit his tongue, and sprayed a mouthful onto it, sacrificing it.
The Rain God’s Decree reappeared, immediately emitting a radiant light, with a fierce storm brewing, lightning interwoven, suppressing towards Shi Hao.
“Run out of tricks?” Shi Hao coldly laughed.
With a clang, he drew the golden Battle Sword again, with a swish he slashed, immediately turning the already cracked, decayed Imperial Decree into pieces, shattering them in the void.
“Ah…” the people of the Yu Clan cried out.
Suddenly, an extremely terrifying aura emerged, very abruptly, a streak of black light, fast as lightning, pounced towards Shi Hao.
The Rain King had moved a Stone Statue from the old temple and sacrificed it, giving it a soul as if it were alive, the Stone Statue soared into the sky, suppressing towards Shi Hao.
“Is this the Rain God’s Stone Statue, it… is a Divine Spirit Artifact?!” someone exclaimed.
Everyone changed color, even the Imperial Titles’ hearts pounded.
Shi Hao calmly, composedly sheathed his sword, taking the Battle Halberd from his back into his hands, then violently threw it; its body pitch black, once infused with Divine Power, it rapidly turned golden, almost tearing apart the void.
“Ding!”
Like a rainbow, the Battle Halberd was immensely powerful, carrying a torrent of golden light, charging forth, directly penetrating the Stone Statue, and carrying it into the old temple.
With a ‘Pfft’ sound, the Battle Halberd, carrying the Stone Statue, flew into the temple before directly piercing the Rain King, pinning him to the ground, causing him to explode on the spot, and the Stone Statue also shattered, turning into dust.
Simultaneously, the entire old temple thunderously collapsed, breaking inch by inch, finally becoming a pile of rubble.
Near the old temple, all the people of the Yu Clan retreated rapidly, hardly believing all this, their clan’s temple and divine statue destroyed just like that?
“Impossible!” some found the reality hard to accept.
Shi Hao beckoned, retrieving his Battle Halberd, placing it back on his back, and coldly said, “Merely an Imperial Decree of the Divine and a Stone Statue of a clan’s god, you think they can compare with my Shi Clan’s National Guardian Halberd? Fragile!”
He turned and walked away, seeing no need to stay any longer.
With two Imperial Titles here, along with some powerful War Generals and a multitude of soldiers, how could they let any other members of the Yu Clan escape?
On this day, the Yu Clan was obliterated, the resisters perished, only women and children were left alive.
