Whoosh—
At the same time, a figure appeared, looking down from above like a heavenly deity, descending with primordial Chaos Qi.
"Battle Saint King!"
All members of the Blue Blood Royal Clan changed color. Within the royal hall, the Blue Blood Divine King rose to his full height, his blue hair cascading like a waterfall. His ice-blue eyes pierced through the layers of halls, gazing at Ye Chen in the sky, and he said coldly, "Battle Saint King, I never expected you would truly dare to come to my clan."
"A mere royal clan, why wouldn't I dare? Even an imperial clan or an Immortal Clan, I would personally pay a visit," Ye Chen said indifferently, his hands clasped behind his back, possessing a peerless bearing.
"Arrogant!"
The Blue Blood Divine King snorted coldly, rushing out from the royal hall to stand before Ye Chen. He appeared to be around the same age as the latter, and those unaware would likely mistake him for a young Divine King.
The Oppressive Might of a Divine King wantonly permeated from his body, pressing down on heaven and earth. His voice rumbled like heavenly thunder: "Battle Saint King, since you dare to come today, stay here. It just so happens that handing you over to the various imperial clans and Immortal Clans can fetch a handsome reward."
Swoosh—
The Blue Blood Divine King's fingertip split open a bloody gash, from which a drop of blood surged out.
Though called blood, it was not the usual red color. Instead, it was crystalline and translucent like a blue diamond, shimmering with dazzling radiance and carrying the rolling Oppressive Might of a Divine King.
Once this drop of blue blood emerged, it instantly expanded countless times in size, ultimately transforming into a massive blue star that directly pressed down toward Ye Chen below.
The power of the Blue Blood Star was immense, exuding a terrifying Divine King's might. Countless Divine King-level chains of order intertwined within it, possessing sealing power. Even an ordinary Divine King would likely be suppressed by it.
Clearly, the Blue Blood Divine King's cultivation was extraordinary.
Ye Chen let out a sound of surprise: "I never expected you to be a Six Tribulation God King."
A Six Tribulation God King was absolutely considered a top-tier existence among Divine Kings.
Indeed, to lead the Blue Blood Royal Clan into the top one hundred among the three thousand royal clans, this Blue Blood Divine King was no ordinary figure.
"However, a mere Six Tribulation God King dares to attack me? Blue Blood Divine King, you are indeed the first," Ye Chen also chuckled.
The Blue Blood Divine King snorted coldly: "Battle Saint King, others may believe you are a Nine Tribulation Divine King, but this Divine King does not. Even ancient Emperors and supreme immortals in their youth could not cross four Divine King tribulations in a mere seventeen years and become a Nine Tribulation Divine King in one fell swoop."
As he spoke, the Blue Blood Star had long since descended from the sky to suppress. Its powerful sealing force transformed into terrifying gusts of astral wind, within which were densely packed, innumerable Dao runes, extremely fearsome.
"Blue Blood Seal!"
The innate divine ability of the Blue Blood Royal Clan—Blue Blood Seal!
When executed by the clan's Divine King ancestor, the Blue Blood Divine King, it could even seal a supreme powerhouse who was also a Six Tribulation God King.
Ye Chen smiled faintly, saying no more. He simply and lightly flicked his sleeve. With a boom, the Blue Blood Star descending from the sky directly shattered, turning to dust, disintegrating just like that!
This scene utterly shocked the entire Blue Blood Royal Clan. The Blue Blood Seal executed by the Blue Blood Divine King was dismantled just like that?
That was a seal capable of suppressing a Six Tribulation God King!
Immediately, Ye Chen pointed out a finger. This finger instantly enlarged like a toppling Sky-Supporting Column, carrying rolling primordial Chaos Qi as it pointed toward the Blue Blood Divine King. "Blue Blood Divine King, since you believe I cannot become a Nine Tribulation Divine King, try this finger of mine."
The Blue Blood Divine King's expression instantly changed to one of horror. He clearly sensed the terrifying power contained within this Chaos giant finger, far beyond imagination. Even he felt a bone-chilling, lethal sense of crisis.
With a long roar, he erupted with his full power. Opening his mouth, he spat out an ancient mirror. Its entire body also shimmered with brilliant blue light, radiating a powerful Divine King's Oppressive Might. It soared into the sky, blocking before the Chaos giant finger.
Boom—
However, before the Chaos giant finger, the ice-blue Divine King ancient mirror seemed utterly fragile, directly shattering with a thunderous crash.
The Chaos giant finger's momentum did not diminish. Descending from the sky, it heavily struck the Blue Blood Divine King.
Boom—
With a tremendous roar, the Six Tribulation God King, the Blue Blood Divine King, could no longer withstand it. He was smashed to pieces on the spot. Even his divine soul was crushed to powder under the Chaos giant finger.
A generation's Divine King had thus fallen.
Witnessing the Divine King ancestor, who supported the entire royal clan like a Sky-Supporting Column, being casually slain by a single finger from the Battle Saint King, the entire Blue Blood Royal Clan was thrown into panic and terror. Countless clansmen rushed in all directions, scattering and fleeing, trying to avoid this most terrifying calamity in the history of the Blue Blood Royal Clan.
"Wildfires cannot burn it all away; with the spring breeze, it grows again!"
A cold indifference appeared on Ye Chen's face, killing intent manifesting. His right hand pressed down emptily from the void!
"Blue Blood Royal Clan, become history completely!"
Boom—
With an earth-shattering roar, a wave of power spread throughout the inner world of the Blue Blood Royal Clan. Tens of thousands of Blue Blood Royal Clan members were instantly smashed to pieces one by one, exploding into clouds of blood mist.
Whether they were Great Powers, Heavenly Kings, the weakest women and children, or even newborn infants—all were utterly annihilated!
Ye Chen was utterly ruthless!
"Battle Saint King, you didn't even spare the weakest women, children, and elderly! You are too heartless! Heaven will punish you, earth will destroy you! You will die a wretched death!"
A Great Power of the Blue Blood Royal Clan roared at the sky, covered in blood, filled with hatred born of a sea of blood and deep enmity.
Ye Chen said coldly, "Back when my human race was attacked and slaughtered by other races, your Blue Blood Royal Clan also took action against the weak women, children, and elderly of my human race. Not long ago, you even dispatched powerhouses to massacre tribe after tribe, village after village, sect after sect. And now you turn around and call me heartless?"
"Heh, you say heaven will punish me, earth will destroy me? Here, I am heaven and earth!"
A great shout represented the will of heaven and earth. Ye Chen was the will of this world.
With a casual flick of his sleeve, the Blue Blood Royal Clan Great Power who had escaped the initial calamity exploded. Even in death, his eyes remained wide open, seemingly never expecting such a scene to befall their Blue Blood Royal Clan.
Perhaps this was the cycle of the Heavenly Dao.
The entire Blue Blood Royal Clan was annihilated, from the most powerful Six Tribulation God King, the Blue Blood Divine King, down to newborn infants. A full one hundred and thirty thousand clansmen were completely slaughtered. The scent of blue blood permeated the entire world.
Yet Ye Chen remained utterly cold and indifferent, without the slightest trace of guilt.
Those not of my race are bound to have different hearts. Moreover, the Blue Blood Royal Clan's methods in the past were even more excessive. They slaughtered countless human tribes, laying waste to populations numbering in the tens of millions, not even sparing the weakest women and children. Why should he spare them today?
Why should he allow the Blue Blood Royal Clan to leave descendants, bearing a sea of blood enmity, to seek revenge against the human race in the future?
That would be the greatest mistake.
The only thing to do was to eradicate the root of the problem!
If this Heavenly Dao considered him cold-blooded and heartless, and imposed heavenly punishment, he would bear it alone!
Having experienced so many events, he was no longer that youth who once harbored a heart devoted to the Dao.
On the path of cultivation, it was the survival of the fittest. He had to be strong enough, ruthless enough, to protect those around him and allow them to live safely.
For that, he did not mind becoming a notorious executioner, even if it meant killing everyone under heaven!
