Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 458: Bad News Keeps Coming



The Royal Capital today was filled with joyous celebration.

Bai Mohan, known as the Supreme Genius rarely seen in the history of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, was marrying the little princess Yue Fenwu, an event that shook the entire Royal Capital.

The already bustling Royal Capital was now imbued with an added layer of festivity.

But nobody knew.

At this moment, there was a defiant young man, stealthily adding...

A touch of blood to this joy!

The Sky-splitting Sword Sect was probably the liveliest place in the entire Royal Capital today.

It was also the most cheerful place.

Because the wedding banquet was being held here.

The entire Sky-splitting Sword Sect was adorned with sparkling lights and extensive feasts were laid out.

Elders from within the Sect had gathered together, with disciples sharing drinks.

The major forces of the Royal Capital came one after another, their congratulations echoing for a long time without end.

In such a grand spectacle, on such a beautiful occasion,

The sudden arrival of two figures shattered the scene with a bang.

One of the figures was a Flame Martial Guard.

The other, covered in blood and extremely disheveled, was an Assassin from the Blood Mist Valley.

"Dammit." Master Xue saw the newcomers and immediately shouted in anger.

Today was the grand wedding day of Bai Mohan and Yue Fenwu.

How could he tolerate someone covered in blood coming here, utterly spoiling the atmosphere.

"Master Xue, wait a moment," the Great Commander said, gesturing with his hand and looking toward his subordinate, the Flame Martial Guard.

He asked in a grave voice, "What happened?"

A bad feeling suddenly surged in the heart of the Great Commander.

The Flame Martial Guard hurriedly reported, "Reporting to the Great Commander,"

"More than two hours ago, Xiao Yi broke into the headquarters of the Flame Martial Guards."

"Broke into the headquarters of the Flame Martial Guards?" The Great Commander frowned, "What was he doing there?"

The Flame Martial Guard reported in a serious tone, "He entered the Scrolls Room, forcibly broke the Prohibition, and accessed all the scrolls and intelligence."

"What?" The Great Commander's face changed.

"Was it that last bookshelf?"

"Yes." The Flame Martial Guard nodded.

Before the Great Commander could speak,

Master Xue and the others had already slammed the table.

"This bastard, he's no longer a Flame Martial Guard, what right does he have to access the scrolls and intelligence of the Flame Martial Guards?"

"Moreover, I've heard that some of the scrolls in the headquarters of the Flame Martial Guards can only be accessed by the Great Commander himself, right?"

"His actions, they amount to stealing secrets. Accessing the confidential scrolls of the Flame Martial Guards without authorization, he is guilty of rebellion."

"Good, very good," Blood River also started laughing.

"Great Commander, it seems you need to immediately send someone to capture this traitor."

"Don't worry, Blood Mist Valley will also provide our full support."

"Indeed," Master Xue sneered.

"I'll immediately send out a command to the Valley."

"I will summon the Valley's powerful experts to assist your elite Flame Martial Guards in capturing this traitor."

The gaze of the Great Commander became extremely solemn as he looked towards the bloodied person from Blood Mist Valley.

"What's your story?" the Great Commander asked.

Master Xue waved his hand, saying, "There's no need for the Great Commander to trouble himself over this."

"Our Blood Mist Valley Martial Artists are all Assassins who tread the line between life and death."

"Probably, he has just returned from a mission outside, having suffered serious injuries."

While speaking, Master Xue stood up, approached the man,

With a wave of his hand, he infused a stream of Pure Element Power into the man's body, stabilizing his injuries.

Master Xue said with a smile, "I've stabilized your injuries, now hurry back to the Valley to recover."

"Also, send my orders down, let the Great Elder personally take action and dispatch an elite team."

"To aid the Flame Martial Guards in capturing Xiao Yi, this traitor."

Upon hearing this, the man's face fell, and he found himself unable to speak.

"What's wrong?" A trace of displeasure flashed across Master Xue's face, "Didn't you hear what I said?"

Master Xue barked coldly.

The man shivered, then tremblingly said, "Valley Master, an hour ago, Xiao Yi attacked Blood Mist Valley."

"Blood Mist Valley has now turned into ruins."

"All Martial Artists within the Valley have died or are severely injured, none survived."

"I was just fortunate enough to barely escape with my life and come to report to the Valley Master."

"What... what did you say..." Master Xue's expression instantly stiffened.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Blood River shouted angrily.

"With the Great Elder and others stationed there, two at Heavenly Origin Eighth Layer, and two at Heavenly Origin Seventh Layer,"

"With such martial strength, could they have been annihilated by Xiao Yi?"

"Bastard, you dare to lie?" Master Xue was uncontrollably furious.

That kind of fury was not ordinary.

It was a complex anger with a somewhat twisted expression.

"Valley Master, I'm not lying," the man said with a mournful face.

"Blood Mist Valley is gone."

The person already cried out in fear.

"Gone... gone... Blood Mist Valley is gone?" Master Xue's face was filled with disbelief.

The mighty peak martial artist staggered and fell into his chair.

"Valley Master." Blood River hurried to support him.

"It's impossible, impossible," Master Xue kept saying frantically.

Just then,

In the distance, another figure flew over, controlling the air.

It was another Flame Martial Guard.

And it was a Lin Family Elder.

It was Lin Chong, the Deputy Commander.

"Lin Chong, why are you here?" the Great Commander asked, the unease in his heart growing more apparent.

"Reporting to the Great Commander," Lin Chong bowed slightly and said,

"According to reliable reports, an hour ago, Blood Mist Valley was attacked by Xiao Yi."

"No one survived in the entire valley, the Sect has become ruin."

"It's really been annihilated... Pu—" Master Xue suddenly spat out a mouthful of bloody spit.

Clearly, it was rage to the extreme.

At that moment, surrounding VIPs came to offer consolation.

"Master Xue, ensure your well-being."

"This way, you'll have the chance to seek revenge, to take the life of that villain."

Speaking was Ao Tianyun himself.

"Master Xue rest assured, our various forces here will not let Xiao Yi go."

"Within today, his life must be taken."

Just then,

Lin Chong's expression was somewhat strange, as he again bowed to the Great Commander and said,

"Great Commander, there is one more thing to report."

"What's the matter?" the Great Commander asked, frowning.

The Great Commander couldn't sit still any longer and stood up straight.

Lin Chong answered solemnly, "Half an hour ago, Sky-reaching Tower was attacked by Xiao Yi."

"The entire Sky-reaching Tower, all goods were swept clean."

"All Ao Family Martial Artists inside the Sky-reaching Tower were killed, not one survived."

"This included two Ao Family Elders, and—"

Lin Chong glanced at Ao Tianyun, then after a long pause, said, "also the Ao Family's Eldest Young Master."

"What..." Ao Tianyun stood frozen.

He, who had been 'comforting' Master Xue, was struck as if by lightning, his face showing utter disbelief.

"My son... is dead?" Ao Tianyun's fists clenched so tight they cracked.

Murderous intent in his eyes thickened tremendously.

"Xiao Yi, the villain, I will have you dead."

Ao Tianyun's roar echoed across the sky.

The atmosphere of the entire wedding banquet suddenly became incredibly heavy.

Everyone's expression turned extremely ugly,

Including Bai Mohan's.

Everyone knew that he didn't get along with Xiao Yi.

And Xiao Yi had chosen this day to carry out a massacre, undoubtedly fiercely slapping him in the face metaphorically.

"Master Xue, Ao Family Master, please accept my condolences," Bai Mohan said softly.

"Mo Han promises you here."

"After today's wedding, no matter where he hides, I will bring Xiao Yi's head to you."

"In tribute to the souls of the Blood Mist Valley Martial Artists, and the Ao Family's Eldest Young Master."

"That's right," the Sect Master also stood out at this time.

"Long have I known Xiao Yi to be treacherous, with brutal and ruthless methods."

"Fortunately, over a month ago, we stripped him of the title of Strongest Sword Master."

"Otherwise, the reputation of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect built up over hundreds of years would have been ruined in an instant."

"After today, the Sky-splitting Sword Sect will also send mighty ones to take his life."

"Really?" Just then, a cold voice rang out across the assembly.

A proud figure floated down.

It was Xiao Yi.

"The reputation of the Sword Sect, already ruined in the hands of the Sect Master and all the elders fifteen years ago."

"Do I still need to destroy it?"

Xiao Yi's mocking voice reached the ears of all the martial artists present.

Such disdain, such unruliness, made people take notice.

Though alone and physically unimposing, he stood proudly before all the powerful figures of the Royal Capital.

"Bai Mohan, over a month ago I told you, I would spare your life for the time being."

"Today, I've specially come to claim it."

Xiao Yi's voice was cold to the extreme.

...

The third update.
