Book 5: Chapter 200: Duke Tianshan

Long Zhanguos fist shot into the sky, crus.h.i.+ng the Cyclic Star Ritual Array. The spirit stars immediately exploded.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As explosions rang out, the eyelids of Long Shenying, Long Shenwen, Sima Zongheng, Lifespan Beiming, and the others twitched wildly.

The nearby battle between the Supreme Genesis and Ao Tianhuang stopped.

The Supreme Genesis initially thought himself quite powerful. However, he now realized that he had been too naive when he saw Long Zhanguos punch. Was that really the Cyclic Star Ritual Array?

To think that that strongest ritual array of the Solar Divine Palace could be destroyed by just one punch from Long Zhanguo!

No! Thats impossible! the Supreme Genesis exclaimed.

Argh! Argh!

Miserable cries came from the starry sky. Not just the spirit stars exploded; countless animal spirits exploded as well. Most of the three hundred sixty-one animal spirit kings burst in a blood mist, peris.h.i.+ng.

Gasp! Gu Hai inhaled sharply.

Bing Jis face twitched slightly.

That was the Cyclic Star Ritual Array!

Long Zhanguos punch created many black holes in the starry sky, which pulled in the crushed stars and filled up the s.p.a.ce.

Blargh!

Only ten-odd animal spirit kings managed to flee in fear to the Heavenly Realms entrance at the Eastern Monarch Palace while vomiting blood.

Master, we were incapable! The leader, Kong Xuan, flew to the Heavenly Realms entrance with a sorrowful expression while vomiting blood.

Long Zhanguo, excellent! How very excellent! Bullying the weak with your strength? Do you really think that this makes you very capable? The Supreme Singularitys icy voice came from the Heavenly Realm.

Bullying the weak with my strength? Hah! Well, we are doing exactly that today! Long Zhanguos eyes turned cold.

Then, Long Zhanguo turned his head to look in the Supreme Genesiss direction.

There were three battlefields.

Long Zhanguo had destroyed the Ten Rising Suns Ritual Array with one palm strike.

Then, he destroyed the Cyclic Star Ritual Array with one punch.

Now, there was just the Supreme Genesiss battlefield left.

The twelve-winged angel that the Cross Annihilation transformed into was beside the Supreme Genesis.

Before Long Zhanguo arrived, the Supreme Genesis had thought that he could block Long Zhanguo by himself. After all, he had eight hundred thousand years worth of acc.u.mulations. Furthermore, he could use the Supreme Genesis Scripture to tap all the angels energy to increase his strength significantly.

The Supreme Genesis had not used his full power during the Ten Thousand Sages Convention. He had believed that he could block Long Zhanguo by going all out today.

However, the Supreme Genesis no longer thought that.

Crus.h.i.+ng nine suns with a palm and shattering the starry sky with a fist. He could not do that even at full power.

When Long Zhanguo looked over, the Supreme Genesis knew that Long Zhanguo had targeted him. This scared the Supreme Genesis so badly that his three spiritual souls shuddered.

Block? What a joke!

The Supreme Genesis did not hesitate to rush into the sky.

Long Zhanguo, if you are that capable, then come to the Heavenly Realm. We will settle it there! the Supreme Genesis roared.

After the Supreme Genesis shouted, he immediately crossed the Heavenly Realms entrance.

Whoos.h.!.+

Dozens of black angels hurriedly rushed into the Heavenly Realm as well.

Everyone fled in an instant. Ao Tianhuang could not react in time.

Hahahahahaha! Your Holy Eminence, you scared them into soiling themselves with one palm strike and one punch! Ao Tianhuang guffawed.

Eminent Father, may you enjoy the blessings of being the immortal, living a long life with no limits! Long Shenying and Long Shenwen called out.

Long live Your Holy Eminence! May Your Holy Eminence live for ten thousand years! Sima Zongheng shouted along with his armies.

All the animal spirits in the Solar Divine Palace hid in horror; many even fled in fear, wanting to leave the Solar Divine Palaces territory as far behind as possible.

Long Zhanguo was overbearingly ferocious. It seemed like no one in the Solar Divine Palace could defeat him.

Rumble!

The heavenly courts thirty-three cities quickly flew over from the distance.

Qian Nation soldiers, charge into the Heavenly Realm with us! Today, we will kill the Supreme Singularity and destroy Six Paths! Long Zhanguo roared.

Thunderous roars came from the surroundings. Kill the Supreme Singularity! Destroy Six Paths!

As Gu Hai stood beside Long Zhanguo, some shock flashed in his eyes.

Boom!

Long Zhanguo entered Heavenly Court City.

Long Shenying, Long Shenwen, Sima Zongheng, Ao Tianhuang, Lifespan Beiming, and the rest returned to the heavenly courts thirty-three cities.

At Long Zhanguos command, the heavenly courts thirty-three cities flew towards the Eastern Monarch Palace, heading for the Heavenly Realms entrance opened by the Primal Chaos Bell.

With flouris.h.i.+ng auras and strong momentum, the Qian Nation army charged towards the Heavenly Realm.

The Solar Divine Palace appeared to be in a sorry state.

Buzz!

After the first city entered the Heavenly Realm, the other cities quickly followed. The thirty-three cities all entered the Heavenly Realm in the blink of an eye.

Rumble!

The Primal Chaos Bell suddenly vanished after the thirty-three layers of heaven entered the Heavenly Realm. The vast entrance to the Heavenly Realm shrank slowly.

Lu Ya City:

Your Majesty, can Long Zhanguo succeed? Bing Ji asked with some shock in her eyes.

I dont know. Gu Hai narrowed his eyes at the narrowing entrance to the Heavenly Realm.

Long Zhanguo had finally revealed his fangs. However, who knew whether he could rip apart the Supreme Singularity and consume Six Paths?

Just as Gu Hai gravely considered this, a shout came from the distance.

Your Majesty, your subjects deserve death! Meng Tai flew over with three thousand Embroidered Uniform Guards on a flying s.h.i.+p.

Meng Tai had brought the Embroidered Uniform Guards and Ao Shun away from Heaven City and hid. They spotted Gu Hai when Long Zhanguo destroyed the golden crows and exploded the spirit stars.

When they saw Gu Hai, they immediately steered the flying s.h.i.+p over in joy.

You lot? Why are you lot here? Gu Hai appeared slightly shocked.

The flying s.h.i.+p stopped.

Meng Tai and the three thousand Embroidered Uniform Guards immediately knelt.

Your subjects deserve death! We failed to protect the crown prince. We deserve death! Sob! Sob! Sob! Sob! Sob! Meng Tai shouted, bursting into tears.

Wh-what?! Gu Hais expression turned stiff.

On the side, Ao Shun had somewhat recovered from his injuries. However, he still sounded very weak as he said, Mister Gu, I implicated Crown Prince Gu Qin!

Gu Hai suddenly had a bad feeling.

Wh-whats going on? Meng Tai, explain! Gu Hai snapped while glaring.

Yes! Yes! These subjects disobeyed Your Majestys order. The crown prince and we came Meng Tai knelt on the floor, crying as he described everything to Gu Hai.

Gu Hai staggered.

Gu Qin died? You are saying that Gu Qin died? Gu Hai roared with bloodshot eyes.

These subjects deserve death! Meng Tai cried while kneeling.

Although Gu Qin was not Gu Hais son by blood, Gu Qin was still his eldest son. The past suddenly flashed in his mind. When Gu Qin was young, he was a stubborn child.

Father, is this child too stupid? This child has embarra.s.sed Father!

This child will study properly! I will not disappoint Father in the future!

This child will accomplish what Father instructed, even if this child has to work myself to death!

Father, I am not as smart as my three younger brothers, but I will work harder than them!

Father, this child is incapable. However, this child really wants to take revenge for Mother. Please let this child be reckless just this once!

Father!

Although there were many times Gu Qin could not compare to his three younger brothers, Gu Hai thought the most highly of Gu Qin. Gu Qin was the steadiest and most centered of his sons. Back when Gu Hai was an ordinary person and had no hope in cultivation, Gu Hai had planned to make him the successor.

Gu Hai had noticed Gu Qin studying through the night many times but had left quietly, feeling gratified and proud of his son.

Now, Gu Qin was dead?

Before Gu Qin died, his last words actually were This child is incapable and can no longer perform his filial duty to Imperial Father!

Filial duty?

Hah! Hahahahahaha! Gu Hai guffawed extremely mournfully.

Your subjects deserve death! Meng Tai cried, remaining on his knees, not daring to get up.

Bing Ji wanted to console Gu Hai. However, Gu Hais rising, furious aura pushed her away.

Gu Hai looked at the shrinking entrance to the Heavenly Realm. His eyes turned bloodshot as he practically roared his words. Supreme Genesis? Supreme Genesis? How dare you kill my son?!

Your Majesty, the Supreme Genesis has left Heaven City. Perhaps we can find some of the crown princes bones or some of his body if we go now, Meng Tai said tearfully.

Gu Hai suddenly lowered his head to look coldly at Meng Tai.

Meng Tai remained kneeling, not daring to raise his head.

Theres no need for you to bother with this. Immediately return to Borderless Heavenly Capital! Gu Hai said in an icy tone.

Ah? Meng Tais expression changed.

We said, all of you, immediately return to Borderless Heavenly Capital. We will deal with Heaven City. This Lu Ya City is a floating city. Ride it back to the capital, Gu Hai said coldly.

You return too. Gu Hai looked at Bing Ji with determination in his eyes.

Search Hosted Novel for the original.

What about you? Bing Ji asked worriedly.

Gu Hai looked at the Heavenly Realms entrance above and said in a frosty tone, Im going to kill the Supreme Genesis.

What? You are going to the battlefield in the Heavenly Realm? You cant! You cant go! The battle in there is too much! Bing Ji said anxiously.

Gu Qin died. Hahahahaha! The Supreme Genesis killed my son. I have to kill him personally! With my own hands! Gu Hai said with a chilly expression.

Dont! Bing Ji urged anxiously.

You all return. It is dangerous in there. There is no difference whether I go or not. It will be fine if Long Zhanguo wins. However, if he loses, the Six Paths Immortal will definitely blame me too. Why not just give it all that I have got? Gu Hai said with a glare.

We subjects are willing to go with Your Majesty, even if we die! Meng Tai immediately said.

You all, return at once to Borderless Heavenly Capital. This is a decree! Gu Hai said coldly.

Your Majesty! Meng Tai called out anxiously.

Are you going to disobey a decree? Gu Hai glared.

Yes! Meng Tai and the others answered bitterly.

Mister Gu, sorry! Ao Shun said bitterly.

Its not your fault. My son died. He died a glorious death. I am proud of him. However, the one who killed my son has to die! Gu Hai stared at the shrinking entrance to the Heavenly Realm in the sky above.

Bing Ji tried to dissuade Gu Hai, but he also told her to leave, not permitting her to enter with him. She could not do anything.

Although Gu Hai had already acknowledged Bing Ji as his woman, she had humbly seen herself as a mere official in her heart.

Lu Ya City rose slowly, heading out.

Your subjects will wait in Borderless Heavenly Capital for Your Majestys good news! Meng Tai and the others said while kneeling.

Gu Hai raised his head and looked at the Heavenly Realms entrance. Although his eyes shone with hatred, he did not rush in. Instead, he took out a zither puppet.

Informing all zither puppets of the Han Royal Dynasty. Inform all officials and all citizens. While we are not in the Han Royal Dynasty, I install Chen Tianshan, the Second Corps commander, as Duke Tianshan! He will be responsible for managing the Han Royal Dynasty. All officials and citizens, no matter who, are to obey Duke Tianshans commands. He will guard the Han Royal Dynasty for us until we return. No matter what happens, no matter what it is, Duke Tianshan will take charge of the nation if we do not return. We have left a decree in the second purple-gold box under the throne in the Soaring Palace Hall. Duke Tianshan may retrieve it. The decree there will serve as written proof that we commanded Duke Tianshan to manage the Han Royal Dynasty! Gu Hai shouted.

Buzz!

The zither puppet immediately sent out Gu Hais message as is to all the zither puppets. Any place with the Han Nations zither puppet would receive Gu Hais decree.

After leaving some instructions, Gu Hai looked at the zither puppet once more.

Contact the Blood Uniform Guards envoy commander, Chang Ming. Chang Ming, receive this decree. We know that you have the Primal Essence Pearl. The Blood Uniform Guards are to attack at full force immediately. Kill all the angels; do not spare anyone. At the same time, collect Crown Prince Gu Qins corpse from Heaven City, Gu Hai said coldly.

After doing all that, Gu Hai stepped forward and soared into the sky, heading straight for the entrance to the Heavenly Realm.
