Chapter 625 The Audience!
Bang!
There was no dazzling light, no deafening roar.
The three Qin kings moved as if in slow motion, their faces showing every detail of panic as they twisted and contorted.
A dull, soft sound.
The moment the fist struck, Qin Tian's soul, filled with terror, was silently and utterly annihilated.
Not even a trace of soul power could escape.
From the register of billions of souls, they were ruthlessly erased by an invisible giant hand, utterly reduced to nothingness, and no longer even had the right to reincarnation.
The flow of time has returned to normal.
"How dare you!" King Siyuan of Qin's eyes were bloodshot with rage.
Qin Tian was someone she had come to protect. His being killed in front of her was tantamount to trampling her authority into the mud!
She went completely mad, her face contorted with rage. With all her cultivation, she transformed her Netherworld power into a grotesque ghost-headed guillotine, slashing down at Qin Jiyu with boundless resentment and ruthlessness!
Qin Jiyu didn't even look at it, and casually waved his other hand behind him.
There were no techniques, just pure, overwhelming divine power.
The seemingly world-destroying guillotine, the moment it touched that palm, was like a fragile tile hitting a giant axe.
Click! Boom!
The guillotine shattered inch by inch, and the surging Nether Force backfired like a torrent.
puff!
Si Yuan felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer.
She screamed and flew backward, crashing hard into the massive bone pillar behind her that symbolized the authority of judgment.
The blood-red dress was riddled with cracks, and a large amount of pure soul power was dissipating, its aura weakening to the extreme.
A deafening roar echoed through the empty hall.
The aftershocks of that earth-shattering collision seemed to linger in the air.
A rare look of astonishment appeared on the usually composed face of the King of Qin.
She stared in disbelief at Qin Jiyu's retreating figure as he withdrew his hand, fear creeping into her mind like rapidly growing vines.
However, the fear only lasted for a moment before a resolute look flashed across her face.
As one of the Ten Kings of Qin, she had the responsibility of protecting order ingrained in her very being.
This soul, which appeared out of nowhere, trampled on the judgment, destroyed souls on the spot, and severely injured Si Yuan... This is a declaration of war against the Underworld!
Regardless of the other party's reasons, this is no longer a question of whether they are wronged or not, but a challenge to the authority of the entire Underworld City and a trampling on the rules they uphold.
"Arrogant! You have disrupted my Underworld and deserve to die!"
Hengye shouted sharply, and she suddenly stomped her foot heavily on the ground.
"Buzz!"
The entire hall trembled.
Centered on her feet, the dark array patterns instantly lit up and spread wildly as if they were alive.
A sinister resentment quickly filled the entire hall.
At the same time, Hengye spread her hands, and a bronze bone tablet wreathed in eerie white ghost fire appeared out of thin air in her hands.
Without hesitation, she pressed two fingers together and struck the center of the bone tablet, instantly illuminating a complex and twisted crimson symbol.
"The Forest of Steles Formation—Activate!"
"Ten Thousand Spirits Stele Forest, heed my command! Capture and kill this man!"
As she finished speaking, the massive bone pillars on the four walls of the hall suddenly began to tremble violently.
Layers of bone powder peeled off the surface, and a chilling buzzing sound came from deep within the column.
A massive barrier quickly took shape, enveloping the entire Hengye Palace.
At the same time, the King of Qin, who had been burning with evil, had retreated to the edge of the formation. The moment the formation was completed, she quickly rushed out of the hall.
Bring in the reinforcements!
The Underworld City has been invaded, and we must go and call for reinforcements now. If we can get the remaining seven Kings of Qin to come here, we might really have the power to fight that monster!
"Who is it? Who is that person?!"
"He actually possesses such terrifying divine power, yet he immediately attacked the Ten Kings of Qin. Which force sent him to cause trouble?"
"Investigate! Investigate now! Find out his identity clearly!"
As she fled, she summoned the Book of Souls from the void and quickly searched through it.
"No, this one doesn't exist!"
"This one is still not available!"
"Damn it, who is he?!"
Ran Nie quickly fled to the Qin King's Palace in Zhenxin. Not long after, horns sounded in the palace.
Upon hearing the horn, the other six Qin kings transformed into streaks of light and swiftly shot towards the Zhenxin Qin King's Palace.
After a while.
An angry roar echoed from inside the hall.
"What?! Someone actually dares to wreck my Underworld City's territory!"
"Damn it! Qin Tian is, after all, a descendant of the Qin family. Even if he is to be executed, it should be done by the Qin family themselves. How dare he overstep his bounds and disregard the Qin family and the Underworld City!"
"Although Si Yuan has acted ruthlessly in recent years and has been biased in some matters, she is, after all, a member of the Qin family and one of the Ten Kings of Qin. How can she be allowed to be trampled on by a lonely ghost!"
"So what if he's strong? We are the Ten Kings of Qin, personally trained by the Lord of the Underworld. No matter how strong he is, if we surround him, we might be able to kill him!"
"What? He almost killed Si Yuan with a single blow? He's really strong."
"It's over, it's over, we probably can't win..."
"What's there to be afraid of? Even if it costs us our lives, we will never let him trample on my Underworld City in the slightest!"
"Well said! As long as the Qin family exists, Ming City exists! If he has the guts, let him kill us all!"
Inside the Qin King's Palace, the women's voices boomed like thunder.
A moment later, these cold-faced Rakshasa, clad in armor and wielding menacing weapons, flew into the air one by one towards the Hengye Qin King's Palace, which was shrouded in an array.
Their faces showed a resolute determination to die, as if they were convinced that this was a tough battle that might be one in which they could not return.
Just then, a "clang!" rang out from the city gate.
Their flight slowed, and they all turned to look at the city gate that stood tall beneath the blood-red sky.
"Why is the bell ringing now?"
"It should not be noon yet."
Before the words were finished, the second bell rang out: "Clang!"
Their hearts skipped a beat.
"clang--!"
"clang----!"
Then came the third tone, the fourth tone...
……
"clang-----!"
Twenty-one long, drawn-out chimes echoed in every corner of the vast underworld.
Twenty-one!
"It's the twenty-first note!"
In that instant, the women's faces lit up with ecstasy. They looked at each other in disbelief, and in each other's eyes, they saw tears of excitement.
"Could it be..."
The conjecture was so powerful that all the previous solemnity, anger, and tragedy were replaced by ecstasy.
In their eyes, there was only an almost uncontrollable fervor and trembling!
"It's Him!"
"The Lord of the Underworld has returned!"
In that instant, the women seemed to have grasped at a straw in their desperate situation.
What a coincidence! Just as the City of the Underworld was about to fall, the Lord of the Underworld, who had been missing for more than ten years, suddenly returned!
"Lord of the Underworld..." they murmured, their voices filled with suppressed excitement and choked devotion.
An indescribable power dispelled all despair and fear.
Without needing any further commands, they instantly and neatly changed direction in mid-air, having originally flown towards Hengye Palace.
The resolute determination to face death has been replaced by a purer, more fervent passion.
I request an audience!
Welcome our supreme lord!
