Everyone was silenced by this turn of events. The progenitor's will has been defeated. Not just that, it was defeated completely. Though it was only a will, the fact remained that it came from the progenitor himself, Chaos Origin. While it wasn't as strong as the progenitor, it wasn't weak either. After all, it could contend against a being of Blame's level.

However, it was still defeated just like that and wasn't able to save itself.

"Blame True God is too strong for the will to take on..." One expert sighed and said helplessly, "If it's the progenitor, it wouldn't be the same situation right now."

Everyone agreed with this notion. If Chaos Origin himself was here in actuality, the victor should be the academy as who could fight against a peak-level being like him? Remember, he was one of the strongest existences ever here in this world.

Too bad though, the progenitor has disappeared for millions of years now and only a strand of his will left here. No one knew where he disappeared to.

"Cough! Cough!" The ancestor coughed up blood a couple of times and staggered backwards, kneeling. It was the backlash of the progenitor's will being shattered. She was the catalyst, thus she was connected to the will.

Seeing this, the teachers and the headmaster immediately rushed towards her.

"Ancestor, are you all right?" The headmaster asked in a worried tone. Though they were defeated, they needed to stand with the ancestor right now. It was a hopeless situation already. All he could was stand tall to protect the academy until he dies.

"Run for your lives. Stop dilly dallying here." The ancestor reprimanded, "I'm already too old so it's okay for me to die. But you all have still a long way to go. The academy couldn't afford to lose any more than this."

The ancestor paused for a while and added while a cubic symbol appeared, "Furthermore, this is what Chaos Origin wants you do, and this is a royal decree. You should know how heavy a royal decree declared by the founder himself here in the academy."

It turned out that the progenitor's will sent a royal decree before it passed away. Perhaps it was programmed for the will to do that when nothing fell in their places that would accord their bidding.

And in the academy, no even in all parts of this world, a royal decree of a founding person, be it weak or strong, has a very strong power to move people. After all, it was forbidden not to abide by what it said.

"..." The headmaster didn't know what to say. He wanted to stay here and defend the academy with the ancestor. However, he couldn't also disregard the royal decree. It spoke a millions of weight here, so he was in a pinch of what to do.

But if we were talking about the strong sense of logic, it was the best for the headmaster to follow the decree. After all, what could he do here when the strongest person of their academy couldn't even do anything about the enemy? He and his staffs would just be a hindrance and a deadweight for the ancestor.

"Go." The ancestor sighed and said, "Even if I die here, it's okay as long as the academy is survive. I prepared a hiding location for you all and not even this true god can detect it. I'll send you the directions by spiritual communication (telepathy)."

"..." The headmaster took a deep sigh and wryly smiled, "As you bid, Reverend Ancestor."

In the end, he took the bullet and gritted his teeth. As the headmaster, he needed to think of the bigger picture. He couldn't let emotional attachments like camaraderie get the better of him.

However, before the headmaster and the teacher could move out, Blame appeared behind them. It was obvious that he was intentionally blocking them.

"I know what you all are thinking." Blame spoke in a mild tone, "Unfortunately, all the chances have been wasted and you can just wish yourselves a fair goodbye here."

"You..." The ancestor wanted to say something. But when she felt a rushing blood towards her throat, she stopped.

"No need to be angry, Fellow Daoist." Blame smiled and said, "This is all the will of fate. You can't do anything about it. After we finish you all here, we will go to the academy and kill every student you hid."

"!!!" The headmaster was greatly alarmed with this. He was feeling an ominous one here.

"Don't act surprised." Blame laughed and said, "That's a natural course of action to be taken, and of course we took that into consideration. So, we planted some sky eyes to monitor the surroundings of your academy. And bingo, we found your hideout."

"You'll even dare to touch the innocent students?" The ancestor was raging inside. She wanted to skin this old man alive and hear him beg for his life, "I'm daring you to do that and I'll bring you down with me."

"I already told you, you have wasted the chances I gave you. Now, it's not my fault that you are in this kind of predicament. If you just followed my bidding, you all will be leaving here in one piece." The old man coldly said. The mild and amiable appearance of him disappeared.

It was true. Blame True God was willing to let everyone go and gave the academy a lot of chances. But they remained arrogant and prideful, not taking things in the best and worst conditions.

Now, all they could do was blame themselves for not following his will. It probably was the will of fate, just like he said.

"Now, time to end this." Blame spoke and released a sword from his void. The sword was made from the most evils souls the world could offer as it cried for utmost redemption.

With the black blade of the sword, something ignited there and bursted out flames all around. The true god was truly wanted to end this.

Then, he lifted his sword upwards to gather strength and swung it fiercely, releasing a powerful evil flames that could devour the living!

The ancestor and those in the academy cluld are only watch this coming their way. They held their breath and braced themselves to accept their death. They had no choice, all of them were exhausted that even moving was a toll for them.

They closed their eyes and readied themselves.

And just when the flames were about to reach them, time suddenly stopped.

And the flames disappeared all of a sudden.
