2024-07-12 01:00:33In Wuyu City, a large city of the Ming Dynasty, its ruler was the Wang kingdom. However, the current king did not bear the Wang surname but instead bore the surname Xiao. The current king was Xiao Jian, the son-in-law of the previous Wang king. Xiao Jian's wife was the eldest daughter of the previous Wang king. Now, Xiao Jian, along with his wife and son, were surrounded by generals of the Wang kingdom itself, assisted by influential figures from other forces.
Xiao Jian stood with his wife, Wangmei, while behind them was their seven-year-old son, Xiao Tian. “Xiao Jian, now I will take your life and also the lives of your wife and son. I will take the throne that rightfully belongs to me!” The person speaking was Wang Chong, the younger brother of Wangmei. But now, the brother she loved most was rebelling, daring even to kill everyone loyal to Xiao Jian. “Brother Wang Chong, why are you doing this? If you want the throne, I won’t hesitate to give it all to you. After all, I do not desire the throne. I have only been governing and waiting for you to come of age. Once you are of age, I will give it to you,” Xiao Jian said firmly to his brother-in-law. “Ha ha ha,” Wang Chong laughed heartily. “Xiao Jian, don’t be naive. Do you think I’m a fool? Who wants to step down from the throne after feeling comfortable in that position? No one! I cannot allow you to step down with an unwilling heart. I will eliminate all of you!” Wangmei, Wang Chong’s older sister, was very disappointed with her brother’s actions. “Wang Chong, now let your sister go! I promise not to interfere with your rule in Wuyu City.” “Ha ha ha, forgive your brother, Sister; I cannot let you go,” Wang Chong replied, then looked at all his troops who had already slaughtered all of Xiao Jian’s loyal followers. “Kill them all!” he ordered with a fierce face. Thousands of kingdom soldiers in armor, led by the kingdom’s generals, surrounded Xiao Jian and his son. “You three must die! You are not worthy to lead the Wang kingdom!” Everyone ran, dragging their weapons. Xiao Jian, Wangmei, and their son Xiao Tian were attacked from all directions. “Kill!” “Kill!” The sound of footsteps rumbled, shaking the earth. Seeing so many troops coming from all directions, Xiao Jian looked at them with a murderous gaze. “Mei’er, protect our son; I will clear a path so you can escape,” Xiao Jian said in a heavy voice. “My husband, I cannot leave you to die alone. If you want to die, we will die together,” Wangmei said firmly, without fear, facing the thousands of troops that were getting closer. Wangmei saw one of the imperial members of the Ming Dynasty. But unfortunately, the person from the Ming Dynasty just sat and watched without caring about them. “No! If you and Tian’er die, no one will seek justice for us. But if you survive, you can seek justice for me and my people who died at their hands!” Xiao Jian drew a jet-black sword. Then he raised his sword. “Kill!” Without waiting for Wangmei’s response, Xiao Jian tied his wife and son with his inner energy; then, he ran towards the troops before him. He channeled his inner energy into the sword with great force, then slashed it fiercely. Xiao Jian was like a rampaging beast; every time he swung his sword, several heads were decapitated. However, even though the number of enemies was large, several stabs and slashes had already wounded him. Clang ~~~~ Clang ~~~~ The sound of weapons clashing continued. “Don’t let him escape!” Wang Chong shouted from afar. “Your Majesty need not worry; no one will leave this place. The three of them will die!” The kingdom general responded confidently. Shot ~~~~ A weapon pierced Xiao Jian’s chest. However, Xiao Jian did not scream; he became more ferocious and terrifying. Plof, plof, plof …. Xiao Jian decapitated several heads. He continued running while killing anyone who blocked his path. After killing many people, Xiao Jian finally broke free from the siege of many troops. However, though he had succeeded, many troops were still chasing him. His body was full of wounds, continuously bleeding. His once pristine white robe turned red from the flowing fresh blood. Finally, Xiao Jian stopped running. “My wife, you must take Tian’er and leave Wuyu City, go as far as possible, and remember, it was your brother, our child’s uncle, who did all this. You must avenge my death!” “My husband, no! I will stay here with you! We will live and die together!” Wangmei did not want to leave her husband, who was already pale from losing so much blood. “No, you must live. Go!” Xiao Jian threw his wife and son away. Then he turned and faced the Wang clan general and all his troops. “I will slaughter you all.” Xiao Jian leaped while swinging his sword. Now, he no longer held back his inner energy. As a level 6 royal warrior, Xiao Jian’s cultivation was relatively high. At the same time, the Wang clan general was only a level-four royal warrior. But he had the advantage of numbers. Shoott ~~~~ Xiao Jian slashed his sword, and the sword energy shot out at high speed. “Aah!” The pitiful cries continued. Many members of the Wang clan had their bodies sliced in two. Shoott ~~~ Plof …. “Brother-in-law, I can no longer let you live!” “Cough, cough, cough!” Xiao Jian stood still, continuously coughing up blood. He saw a poison-laced sword piercing through his body; even his heart had been destroyed. Wang Chong had appeared behind Xiao Jian and stabbed him directly. “No... Father!”

Xiao Tian looked at Ding Wu, Huixing, and the others who had followed him into the Eternal Era world.Although their strength was now extremely strong, far surpassing the others, they did not create any distance. They did not stand apart, did not form their own circle, and did not wait to be served.They did not act arrogantly, they were willing to cooperate in cooking, as if at this moment everything looked the same.There was no position or strength that stood higher than another. In this moment, there was no difference between those who had already reached Half God Sovereign and those who were still left behind. Everyone stood in the same formation.They worked together while joking, and laughed freely.That scene made many of the troops who had been left behind feel more at ease.They could clearly see that the strong did not trample the weak. There were no condescending gazes, no body language that showed superiority. That closed off the potential social gap that usually appeared
Chapter 1517
For troops who lived within a formation system, the sentence “I have not forgotten you” carried far more weight than any long promise. Because it meant that the distribution of resources would take place, and they would not be left to rot in their old positions.BUZZ!!!Xiao Tian waved his hand. Instantly, piles of primordial beast meat formed several mountains.Those mountains of meat appeared in layers, neatly arranged, filling the field of view. Each piece still carried remnants of life that had not completely faded.From those piles of meat, divine energy was still flowing without restraint. Not wild, but dense enough to be immediately felt by anyone nearby.Some troops felt the circulation of energy within their bodies accelerate. Others felt a warm pressure seep into the core of their strength.“These primordial beasts possessed realms of rank twelve, thirteen, and there are even some Half God Sovereign rank fifteen when they were alive. So not only is the meat delicious, the en

When Xiao Tian arrived at the Cloud Formation barracks, tens of millions of troops immediately welcomed him. They lined up, then knelt with one hand pressed to their chests.The formation took shape without the need for additional commands. Its arrangement was neat, stretching as far as the barracks grounds could accommodate. The foremost ranks held their positions steadily, while the following waves closed the distance with precision, ensuring there were no gaps that made the formation appear disorderly.Their movements were synchronized, not because they were forced, but because the rhythm of the formation had long been ingrained. Not a single step moved ahead, not a single body lagged behind. All moved within a single collective awareness.The hand pressed to the chest was not done casually. It followed the official salute that had long been reserved only for commanders they truly acknowledged. That posture itself was already a declaration, stronger than any shout or vow of loyalty
Chapter 1515
Xiao Quantian did not add a direction, did not mention a distance, and did not expand the meaning with further explanation.He only conveyed the single most important fact.Yet that one word was enough to make Xiao Tian hold his breath.Because the word “Palace” sounded like something far greater than anything he had imagined so far.“A Palace? Does my father have a Palace in the Cosmic Sea Universe?” Xiao Tian asked, his curiosity about his own father’s strength clearly stirred.Xiao Tian’s tone remained controlled.He did not raise his voice, nor did he rush.Yet that curiosity was unmistakable, because the question was born from a new awareness that there existed a layer of the world that had long been tightly sealed away from him.He did not ask like a child whining.He asked like someone who had begun to realize that the line of his life ran far deeper than he had previously understood.“Of course. The Patriarch is the only one worthy of bearing the title of ruler of the Cosmic S

While they were focused on cultivation, elsewhere, Xiao Tian and his group had already arrived at Hundun Realm.The shift in focus felt natural, like two currents running in parallel.Tuo Xun wanted to host Xiao Quantian, but Xiao Quantian refused.The reason was simple.There was something important he wanted to discuss with Xiao Tian.Tuo Xun did not insist.He had already seen with his own eyes what Xiao Quantian had done.He understood that trying to detain a figure like that with a banquet would only be an act of ignorance.His desire to host was a form of respect, not an obligation.But when Xiao Quantian refused, Tuo Xun suppressed all the curiosity that arose in his mind.He did not ask further.He chose to act.Tuo Xun immediately prepared the most perfect place in Hundun Realm.He allowed Xiao Tian to bring Xiao Quantian to that place.That place was not chosen at random.He selected a location considered the safest, the hardest to reach, and the most suitable for a conversa
Chapter 1513
“I do not care about how the people of the eight Galaxies treat me. But I have an obligation to protect the eight Galaxies. This is a promise I have upheld since childhood,” Xiao Jian stated firmly.Xiao Jian answered calmly, but there was no gray area within that sentence.He did not justify himself with a list of merits.He did not mention the suffering he had endured.He placed only one reason, and he stood upon that reason as if there was nothing else that needed to be proven.He spoke the word “promise” without hesitation, as if it had never changed since the first time he uttered it.“A promise? Is it really just because of a promise?” Xiaoxiao asked, as she still did not believe there were people who continued to uphold a promise.Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes slightly, not merely out of suspicion, but because she truly wanted to test whether that answer would waver.She had seen far too many people speak of principles, only to retreat when the price to be paid became too great.S
