Chapter 50

The next day,

The terrifying news regarding the assassination attempt on Ling Chen’s life by the king and also the destruction of the Han Royal Family of the Fire Crow Kingdom spread throughout the whole kingdom as well as some of the neighboring kingdoms like wildfire, startling countless people .

Whether it was the citizens of the Fire Crow Kingdom or the other nobles that weren’t present in the royal palace to witness everything first hand, they were all flabbergasted and shocked from the news .

Even though they weren’t present, they still could feel their entire bodies become slowly drenched in cold sweat while listening to the details of the massacre .

Though the nobles that were present didn’t go into too many details or demonized Ling Chen because of the event that transpired within the royal place as they were afraid of Ling Chen’s retaliation, the commoners didn’t let that chance slip by .

From the little details, they were able to gather from the people’s mouth about the massacre, they portrayed Ling Chen as a huge ancient beast . For them, Ling Chen was like a true devil that just got loose from the depth of hell .

Some said that Ling Chen’s body had dissolved into darkness itself and swallowed the royal family as well as the fifteen assassins . Some said that he had turned into a huge black beast and devoured all of them whole .

While in truth, Ling Chen only put the corpses of the fourteen assassins into his interspatial ring in order to avoid leaving their withered bodies behind after he had absorbed their life force .

Many exaggerating rumors about the massacre started to spread in every corner of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Domain instead of the real fact .

The storm of a discussion and rumors lasted for a long time; some were happy and some were on edge regarding such a great nefarious event .

At the same time, some of the neighboring kingdoms such as the Redbud Kingdom wanted to take the opportunity to occupy the Fire Crow kingdom while they didn’t have a king, however, they were stopped by one of the representatives of the Heavenly Demon Sect in the secular world .

It was prohibited for any kingdoms to attack the Fire Crow Kingdom until they have a new king . As such, even though the Fire Crow Kingdom was kingless, none of the neighboring kingdoms dared to make a move on them lest they wanted to suffer the same fate as them .

Aside from the nobles and commoners, all of the fifteen great influences got the news as well, and their expressions didn’t differ much from the others .

They were also shocked and astounded from the news, however, it wasn’t for the same reasons as the nobles and the others .

. . .

Meanwhile, inside the Yan Palace of the Yan Imperial Capital . The Yan Emperor heard the report about the Han Royal Family’s destruction from his most trusted minister as he was sitting high in his dragon throne . At this moment, his expression sank, and finally spoke:

” This isn’t right”

“Han Tong would never try to kill that child unless I told him to . There’s something more to it . I don’t think that it was just a coincidence that the little devil happened to suddenly destroy one my chess piece within the Heavenly Demon Sect’s domain . “

“Why didn’t he go to the Sky Lion Kingdom’s Royal Capital or the Redbud Kingdom’s royal capital, instead, he went straight to the Fire Crow kingdom’s Royal capital and asked to meet with the king . “

“Surely he didn’t expect to fool me with this childish ploy . “

“Ten years ago, the Heavenly Demon Sect’s domain has gone through one cleansing and they didn’t touch none of my chess pieces . “

” Now, ten years later, the first influence that happened to be destroyed was one of my pawns . It seemed like Ling Tian can’t take it anymore . “

“However, it’s already too late . Most of my chess pieces are already deeply rooted in their domain . If they wanted to eradicate all of them, then I am afraid that their domain will be shaken and fall into chaos . “

“Anyway, tell that lad bloodbath to speed up the assassination mission . The day we get rid of that child is the day that I will take my invincible legion and destroy the Heavenly Demon Sect . ” The Emperor said with a slight demonic smile on his face .

Supreme Sword Dao Sect

The Supreme Sword Dao Sect was a legendary existence within the Heaven Desolate Region .

Though there was no shortage of hidden sects within the Heaven Desolate Region . But there were five that were considered the strongest — and the Supreme Sword Dao Sect was one of them .

Just like its name suggested, the disciples of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect were well versed in the arts of Swordsmanship . In fact, It’s said that all the most powerful Swordsmen that shook the Heaven Desolate Region all cane from the Supreme Sword Dao Sect .

As one of the fifteen great influences of the Heaven Desolate Region and also one of the seven righteous sects, the Supreme Sword Dao Sect’s power wasn’t to be trifled with .

Though they didn’t have any Saint powerhouse like the Yan Empire or the Evil Dragon Sect, they were still strong enough to be rank as the fifth strongest influence throughout the Heaven Desolate Region which said a lot about their strength .

On this day, the sunlight had just struck the holy ground of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect .

At this moment, standing atop of the highest mountain peak of the Supreme Sword Dao sect was a man, he was gazing at the far distance .

Behind him was a young man dressed in blue with long a sword hanging on his waist . The man wasn’t directly facing the young man, but the young had his head lowered, looking downward as if he was afraid of looking at the man in front of him .

The man didn’t look old . He looked to be in his forties . Of course, his real age was definitely more than that .

For some unknown reason, the body of the middle-aged man was radiating a Sky piecing murderous aura which caused even the young man behind him to be horrified .

The middle-aged man stood there like an ancient unsheathed demonic sword, painting a bloody scene .

“Elder Zhuo, the sect master wanted to know if you’ll send another group of disciples to deal with the little devil again . ” Asked the young man with a look of fear in his eyes .

He could clearly tell that elder Zhuo wasn’t in a good mood after he had told him about the recent news of the little devil .

Elder Zhuo’s position in the Supreme Sword Dao Sect was similar to that of the Asura elder in the Heavenly Demon Sect . They have a similar mission or role .

He was also the one responsible for the mission of killing the little devil . After knowing that the mission was a failure and his precious disciple Situ Nian was killed in the process as well, he was furious and wanted nothing but fly into the Heavenly Demon Sect and slaughtered them to his heart’s content . However, he was stopped by the Sect Master and the two great elders .

As one of the four strongest people within the Supreme Sword Dao Sect, elder Zhuo was at the peak of the Martial Venerable realm, only one step away from the Martial Saint Realm . However, there was a huge gap between the two . Most warriors couldn’t overcome that gap no matter how much they tried or cultivated . If it was that easy, there wouldn’t be only two Human Martial Saints throughout the whole Heaven Desolate Region .

“Don’t worry, tell him there’s no need to rush getting even with that little bastard!” Elder Zhuo finally said .

“Plus if the rumors are true, the little bastard has already broken through the Martial Sovereign, none of the disciples could fight him . We have to at least send an elder to get the job done . “

While he said that, there was a hint of jealousy and horror in his cold face .

A ten years old Martial Sovereign!

Although Martial Sovereign was only one realm above the Martial Emperor, a person that hasn’t broken through that realm couldn’t fathom just how much more frightening a Martial Sovereign was compared to a Martial Emperor .

Reaching this level meant that one was able to make a direct connection with the Heavenly Law of Heaven and Earth . Beneath Martial Sovereign and above, all were ants . The Martial Sovereign realm was like the beginning or the starting point in becoming an immortal or a god .

A Martial Sovereign realm warrior could kill a Martial Emperor as easy as an ant . Yet, all that immense power was wasted on a ten years old child .

“Anyway, we should wait, let other sects take first shot, we just need to watch . None of them would just stand by and watch the birth of a new Martial Saint . Someone that could tilt the balance of power between them, Let alone one from an Evil Sect . “

” Even though many of our disciples might have died under his hand, we can’t act rashly . “

” If after a month or two, they still couldn’t kill him . I’ll make a move myself . ” Said elder Zhuo with a cold icy tone .
