Its time someone else reigns over the Great Yu Celestial Dynasty.

Terror struck Emperor Yu as chills coursed through his body. While coldness overtook his limbs, he stood frozen stiff within the massive fog, not daring to move, and the approaching Gu Changge only made it eerier and suffocating.

Not only had he always been trusting towards Gu Changge before this, but he even wanted his daughter, Yu Feiya, to actively approach Gu Changge. Hence, he was utterly shocked that the young man would show up at this very moment and make such a declaration.

[Can it be that Gu Changge deliberately had the men in black attack him? And his injury too Could they also be fake? So as to lull people into a false sense of security!?]

Chills ran down Emperor Yus spine as he shuddered at the terrifying possibility. Though he was the ruler of an Immortal Celestial Dynasty, this didnt stop fear from overwhelming him.

[Just how terrifyingly scheming is he to be able to control everything in the dark!?]

At the end of the day, Emperor Yu was no common man, and he quickly collected himself after chuckling bitterly. Then, he shifted his gaze towards Yu Tianzheng and Gu Changge, saying, to think Gu Changge is your backer. No doubt, Gu Channge, you must have been the one behind all of the recent chaos. Youre the real instigator, huh? Whod have thought youd stay so well hidden. Whod have thought Gu Changge, you are the biggest disaster in this whole realm!

He had a good grasp of Gu Changges character. No doubt the young man wasnt worried about him getting away when he dared make himself known so publicly. [Looks like this will be the end of me.]

Gu Changge was so powerful that he could even annihilate a Worlds Will, a being nearly equal to an Immortal. Thus, it would be a piece of cake for the young man if he wanted to kill him.

Unless he could fully awaken the National Weapon in his hands, he could forget about ever resisting Gu Changge.

Good to see that youre not all that dumb. Its high time the Great Yu Celestial Dynasty is handed to me, sneered Yu Tianzheng as he quickly swallowed a few pills to heal up. Then, his body was enveloped in a glow, and his energy was recovering speedily.

The way Yu Tianzheng saw it, Gu Changges appearance foretold the ending of the situation. No variant would occur. Even if Emperor Yu had all the schemes in the world, the era of his rule would end here.

I knew it! You have sought refuge under Gu Changge! Dont tell me you intend to hand over the whole Dynasty to him! Emperor Yu blew a fuse, sounding disappointed but mostly indignant.

If Gu Changge hadnt intervened, he wouldve already killed Yu Tianzheng by now, and none of all this extra nonsense would occur. Then again, it all boiled down to his foolishness at the end of the day. Gu Changge had him wrapped around his little fingers, and he was oblivious to the mans schemes.

Meanwhile, Gu Changge shook his head with a profound and impassive gaze while asking, Do you want me to kill you, or do you want to do it yourself?

I shouldve listened to Feiya a long time ago Grimness enveloped Emperor Yu as he regretted not listening to his daughter back when she warned him of Gu Changge. If Gu Changge really faked his injury, all that had happened in Profound Sword World was likely mostly clandestine, and the deaths of the many True Daoists would forever be a mystery.

Enough words. You will die today, and theres nothing anybody can do about it! Yu Tianzheng roared in anger as his Qi and blood boiled. Endless runes surfaced as he charged towards Emperor Yu.

*Boom!* The area exploded once more, causing a massive shockwave that seemingly reformed the world.

Like Ill let it happen! roared Emperor Yu as endless blood burst out from within him. He knew he would die one way or the other. Hence, he decided to make a last-ditch effort and revive the Chaos Dao Sword.

Endless sword rays ripped the darkness, pervaded out of the area, and shot to the skies.

Outside, chaotic Imperial Qi filled the depths of the sky as the Dao Sword released a never-ending ray.

The sharp edge gleamed, looking like it had been suppressed since the beginning of time as slivers of Imperial Qi trailed down, wanting to shield Emperor Yu.

This was a National Weapon of the Great Yu Celestial Dynasty. The way it was produced was incredibly unique. Hence, it could hold its own just fine against even an Immortal Grade Artifact.

Now, the divine power within the sword was roused by Emperor Yu, with brilliant light burst out, shining down on the entire world as it stirred to kill all its enemies.

*Buzz!*

However, a quaint and mysterious black hole-like rune enveloped in the might of the Great Dai flew out from within the void. It made the Dao Sword tremble ceaselessly. Even the awakening divine power gradually dimmed.

What in the world Emperor Yu was beyond terrified, and his voice trembled with terror.

No matter how he attempted to reawaken the divine power within the Dao Sword, it was of no use.

What Gu Changge was doing was too profound to comprehend.

Making a last-ditch effort? Just give up already, monotoned Gu Changge as he reached his hand out with an unfathomable gaze.

The space in front crumbled instantly, leading to endless astral winds, with chaotic light bursting out, disintegrating all physical material.

Chills ran down Yu Tianzhengs spine as he felt lowly like an ant. If he didnt evade, the shock wave created by Gu Changges attack would certainly kill him.

[Is this Gu Changges true strength?] Unadulterated fear shrouded him, and he finally realised what despair was.

Ah! Emperor Yu roared furiously as countless slivers of Imperial Qi wreathed, and a sea of Principles surged within him. The embroideries on his clothes roused and emerged to block the attack. Nevertheless, all these efforts were nothing against Gu Changges palm strike. It all disintegrated instantly.

This was absolute oppression. A gulf, like those between a god and a mortal.

*Boom!* Blood splattered everywhere and was quickly absorbed by the massive mist.

Emperor Yu felt absolutely hopeless. Even when he had used every trick in his book, he still exploded to bits under Gu Changges attack. Even his soul disintegrated into nothingness.

As the Emperor of the Great Yu Celestial Dynasty, he had many objects that ensured his survival, not to mention when he held the Dao Sword, he should be invincible. However, his opponent was Gu Changge. The outcome of the battle had been decided from the get-go. No variants would ever happen.

Thank you for helping me, Young Master Gu, said Yu Tianzheng with a flushed face and a shaking body, while in cloud nine.

Though he didnt manage to kill Emperor Yu himself, it was good enough for him to see the man die before his eyes.

At last, years of hatred and animosity had come to a close.

On the other hand, Gu Changge was barely ruffled, for killing Emperor Yu to him wouldnt change anything. Well, his clout would be affected, but killing the Emperor was no different from crushing an ant. Sure, he had the Chaos Dao Sword, which drew power from the Dynasty, but he was ultimately just a Quasi-Nirvana Realm expert and not a True Daoist.

Im leaving the rest to you. Dont let me down again. Gu Changge disappeared in a flash, as though he was never there, after taking a gander at Yu Tianzheng.

This was only the beginning of the chaos in Great Yu Celestial Dynasty, and he was merely driving things ahead in the shadows.

Now that Emperor Yu had fallen, chaos would certainly ceaselessly plague the lands. But at the same time, it was also the perfect time for Yu Tianzheng to seize the throne and rule over the Dynasty.

Other than him, no one else would know what happened this very night, nor would they know the tragic death of Emperor Yu.

After all, to those outside, Gu Changge was suffering a severe injury and was even attacked by a group of men in black. None would think to connect all of that to Emperor Yus assassination, and certainly no one would assume he would have anything to do with this.

Dont worry, Young Master Gu. Leave the rest to me, said Yu Tianzheng as he nodded solemnly in the direction Gu Changge left.

Followingly, he swept his feverish gaze across the many objects left behind.

Now that Emperor Yu was gone, the Dao Sword and the other things he left were now Yu Tianzhengs by default. After all, his and Emperor Yus cultivation derived from the same origin. Hence, it was only normal that he could wield the sword, and the other cultivators, especially the True Daoists, could forget about ever seizing it from him.

Gu Changge certainly wouldnt claim something like this. On the one hand, he didnt lack any, and on the other, claiming the sword would imply he attacked and killed Emperor Yu. Risking such things to get the sword really wasnt worth it.

This is the best scenario. Looks like the men in black were really a part of Young Master Gus plan. Well, it has helped me either way. Many will certainly assume them to be under Emperor Yus command. But dead men tell no tales Yu Tianzheng sneered as he looked down through the mist.

Gu Changge had ceased the fight there long ago. Hence, not even a True Daoist could find anything, even if they personally recollected the scene using their secret technique.

That way, it would give the people an illusion that he killed Emperor Yu using some terrifying attack.

*Eek, eek, eek* The massive mist from nowhere remained to in the sky, enveloping the entire Imperial Capital and clouding all the cultivators senses.

At this point, not even the True Daoist could tell what was going on inside.

The other cultivators had long sunken into the darkness. As nothing but darkness was ahead of them, the only thing they had in mind was to leave this place. None of them had a clue what had happened.

That said, signs ultimately still showed following Emperor Yus deatha bloody rain poured.

Many terrifying images were reflected in the skies of the Great Yu Celestial Dynasty. Demons cried, monks looked up, and the stars and moon crumbled.

As the reigning Great Yu Celestial Dynasty Emperor, his life was inextricably linked to the Fortuity and Faith of the trillions of living beings here. The implication was so vast that it was unimaginable.

At that moment, all those in the Capital were dumbfounded. They were even wondering if their eyes were playing tricks on them.

Of course, all the princes and princesses were stupefied, standing rooted to their spots with heads buzzing.

H-How How can this be

His Majesty has fallen?

Some ministers who had come to their senses were still stupefied, and their trembling voices were filled with fear and sadness, having a hard time believing all of this was real. In their heads, the winner of this battle was evident. Emperor Yu should be able to kill Yu Tianzheng easily, not to mention that he had arranged for backup. So how could he have possibly died!?

For a moment, howls and wails filled the entire Dynasty. No one believed their invincible Emperor was killed by his mortal enemy.

Many screamed in grave agony. Some even nearly passed out.

Those from other Forces, too, were incredibly shocked and filled with mixed emotions, No one expected such an outcome from this battle.

How could Father have died? This is impossible Yu Feiyas face blanched. Her fists clenched so tightly that her knuckles were cracking.

Though Emperor Yu was incredibly selfish and only ever cared about benefits to the Royal Family, so much so that he was willing to use her as a token for exchange, he was still her father. The revelation of his sudden death caused her to nearly black out.
