Chapter 1186
Chapter
"Ha ha, ha ha ha ha . . . " King Zhenyuan started with a soft chuckle that grew into hearty laughter . He sounded a little crazed as he said, "Ha ha ha, well, well, I never thought that after ruling over the Dark Realm and defeating countless prodigies and enemies, that I'd end up dying here on this platform and that my bones will be buried amongst the white clouds . Ha ha ha, well, very well . . . "
He laughed until he was about to cry .
He had never expected the battle to end this way and was unable to accept this outcome .
Yet, this seemed like the best outcome .
King Zhenyuan was an ambitious man, but even he could tell that other than stretching out his neck to face the executioner's sword, he could not do anything else . Zhang Longcheng had clearly sealed his death sentence and gave him a chance to salvage his pride . After he died, the Yuan clan would receive a pardon and no one else will have to die .
"Very well . I guess, I'll have to choose to commit suicide," the King of Zhenyuan's laughter died away and his expression reverted to calmness .
He nodded and took two steps backward . His yuan qi and divine sense became more concentrated and the aura that his body exuded became more frenzied . This was the beginnings of a Dao-dissolution and it seemed like he had submitted to his destiny .
Ye Qingyu remained silent .
This would be the best outcome but it was clear that King Zhenyuan was not someone who would quietly admit defeat .
He gathered his entire body's cultivation and compressed them to their maximum limits, then a glimpse of ruthlessness and savageness appeared on his face and he turned into a ray of flowing light that hurtled rapidly at Ye Qingyu . . .
"Let's go to hell together," he bellowed .
He exerted his own yuan qi and activated several fake Emperor weapons in his possession as he prepared to self-detonate and bring Ye Qingyu down with him . He would kill himself together with Ye Qingyu if he had to die .
Ye Qingyu shook his head and waved his [Blood Drinker Sword] .
The Life Sword's sword radiance scattered everywhere and reacted like fire on paper, instantly vanquishing the terrifying yuan qi energy waves and all his cruel qi . His figure that was charging toward Ye Qingyu also froze mid-air as though he had been fossilized and he couldn't take another step forward .
"I refuse to admit defeat, I simply refuse to . . . " King Zhenyuan said numbly and his face was full of resentment and hatred .
"You brought about your own destruction with your evil deeds," Ye Qingyu said coldly, "You didn't even spare a thought for your family before you died . I should have known you would act this selfishly and cruelly . "
"Ha ha ha . . . " King Zhenyuan laughed evilly and retorted disdainfully, "There would be no reason for the King of Zhenyuan's residence to continue existing after my death . Every single one of them is completely useless anyway so even if you spare them, it is only a matter of time before they are killed by the rest of the noblemen . What a pity that I wasn't able to kill you in my lifetime . I'll definitely turn into an evil spirit after my death and continue to haunt you . "
There was a sudden soft bang after he spoke and his figure exploded like fireworks in the void then vanished in a puff of green smoke as he disappeared from the face of this world .
Ye Qingyu shook his head .
"I can't believe you still refuse to admit the truth . I wasn't afraid of you while you were alive, let alone after your death," he said .
Then, he retracted his sword and stood on the platform .
Thus, the battle that has stunned the entire Royal City and the Dark Realm came to a close . This put an end to the battle with an outcome no one had expected .
The hundreds and thousands of noblemen on the Azure Cloud Square were completely frozen in shock as though their soul and sense of logic had left them . They even forgot to gasp as they remained glued blankly to their stone chairs .
The Crown Prince of the King of Zhenyuan's residence, Princess Poison Flower and the Second Prince Yuan Wenguo all looked as though they had been struck by lightning and their shock, terror, disbelief, and incredulity were written all over their faces . They looked like extremely lifelike statues that had been carved to display all the despairing expressions that men could make .
The noblemen who had aligned themselves with the King of Zhenyuan's residence had been cheering him on ingratiatingly moments earlier and falling all over themselves to prove their loyalty to him, but they were all now like orphans who had just lost their parents and their misery was written all over their faces . Their minds were a complete blank now that the powerful figure that they had relied on had suddenly been killed . They could already see the collapse of the King of Zhenyuan's residence and knew that they would be like homeless dogs without a master, who could be killed by the other forces at any moment .
Obviously, no one was more conflicted than Nie Tiankong at the moment .
He looked in disbelief at the scene in front of him and kept replaying the moment where King Zhenyuan was effortlessly destroyed by Ye Qingyu in his mind's eye . He was completely consumed by regret and remorse .
He wanted nothing more than for time to turn back to that fateful night when he entered the Sky Fox clan's residence . This was the only way he could undo the biggest mistake of his life .
If he had the ability to see into the future, he would have taken Zhang Longcheng's side no matter what it took .
Zhang Longcheng's display of his combat abilities on the Azure Cloud Platform had astounded everybody . King Zhenyuan was a nine-step Quasi-emperor and proclaimed himself to be the most powerful person under a Martial Emperor . With the [Samsara Disc of Nine Opposites] of the Sky Fox clan in his hands, his strength could be comparable to a Martial Emperor but he had been reduced to dust by Zhang Longcheng . This was enough to see how powerful Zhang Longcheng was .
