"If you knew how hard it was for your Heavenly God Hall to pass down the legacy left by your ancestors to this day, why then did you act so arrogantly and domineer before, bullying the weak, provoking me repeatedly, and colluding with the Guardian Faction, helping the tyrant abuse others? Did you never once think there would be consequences like today?"
Ye Yunfei finally spoke slowly, his icy tone brimming with dense killing intent.
"Young Master Ye, your admonition is correct. We were indeed far too arrogant before. From now on, our Heavenly God Hall will definitely heed your words. I guarantee we will reform. I now only beg you to spare our Heavenly God Hall."
The Heavenly God Hall Master broke into a cold sweat upon hearing Ye Yunfei's cold words. He bent his waist even deeper, and even his voice began to tremble.
"Since you've done wrong, you must pay the price. You're all adults. Do you think this is a child's game? If you make a mistake, can a single apology or repentance make it all okay?"
Ye Yunfei stood there with his hands behind his back, speaking coldly, without a shred of pity.
In the distance, those sixty Deity Puppets were still everywhere, hunting down members of the Heavenly God Hall. So far, at least half of the Heavenly God Hall's forces had already been slain.
"Young Master Ye, please hear me out..."
The Hall Master gathered his courage to speak, wanting to continue begging Ye Yunfei for mercy.
"Say no more. I came here today specifically to exterminate your Heavenly God Hall. The moment your hall chose to collude with the Guardian Faction to bully this stretch of void together, the outcome for your Heavenly God Hall was already sealed."
Ye Yunfei suddenly waved his hand, his tone impatient.
"Ye Yunfei! Must you really show us no mercy? Our Hall Master has already pleaded with every nice word possible. What more do you want?!"
At this moment, a Deity standing to the right of the Hall Master could no longer hold back and spoke up. This Deity was well-known for his short temper.
"Indeed. I do intend to show no mercy."
Ye Yunfei's icy gaze fell upon that Deity.
"Trouble!"
The Hall Master's heart sank with a curse.
"Elder Huang! Do not clash with Ye Yunfei! He is famously brutal. Quickly apologize and beg for mercy, or your life will be forfeit!"
The Hall Master immediately sent a sound transmission to that Deity, but it was already too late.
"Ahh!" With a wretched scream, the Deity began bleeding simultaneously from his ears, eyes, nose, and mouth. His body shot backward as if struck by lightning. A cold, clear full moon appeared within his Soul Sea, spinning and slicing toward his Soul Body.
This Deity had only broken through to godhood recently. How could he withstand Ye Yunfei's Moon Soul Slash? His body crashed onto the ground in the distance, convulsing violently, unable to get up.
"How terrifying!"
Witnessing this scene, all the other high-level members of the Heavenly God Hall were chilled to the bone with fear.
"How is this possible? He's merely a Perfect Semi-Deity. How can he possess such heaven-defying combat prowess? He actually defeated a Deity in an instant!"
The four remaining Deities of the Heavenly God Hall could hardly believe it.
"Young Master Ye, let's talk this through peacefully. Please, spare..."
The Hall Master began to speak again.
But Ye Yunfei had already lost his patience to waste time with him. Before the Hall Master could finish his sentence, Ye Yunfei punched forward directly. A massive dragon materialized, roaring and rushing forward with unstoppable force.
During his recent secluded healing within the Phantom Tower, Ye Yunfei had refined and fused a large batch of deity-level magic treasures. His physical injuries had not only fully healed, but his physical strength and quality had ascended a level. The power of the Heavenly Dao Divine Dragon Fist he now unleashed was stronger than ever before.
The four Deities of the Heavenly God Hall stood at the very front, bearing the brunt of the attack. All four were merely Preliminary Void Gods, completely incapable of withstanding Ye Yunfei's punch.
*Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!*
All four Deities were simultaneously sent flying by Ye Yunfei's fist. Their bodies promptly exploded one after another, shattered into pieces.
The other Heavenly God Hall elders standing behind them fared even worse. Shaken by the shockwave of Ye Yunfei's punch, they burst apart continuously like bubbles.
With just a single punch, Ye Yunfei had instantly crushed all of the Heavenly God Hall's leadership.
"Ye Yunfei, you little bastard! It seems you are truly determined to annihilate my Heavenly God Hall today! I will fight you to the end!"
A roar of fury erupted. The Hall Master's body reformed and reappeared. In his hand, he held a long saber that radiated surging divine radiance. With a slash toward Ye Yunfei, a huge saber beam materialized.
This saber beam directly cleaved the space ahead in two, its imposing aura stunning.
"So, it's an advanced Void God magic treasure. And there's a remnant soul hiding within the blade controlling this saber. This must be the Heavenly God Hall's greatest hidden reserve, right? Indeed, an advanced Void God magic treasure, and one containing a remnant soul, would have been enough to intimidate the entire void in the past. Who would have thought the Heavenly God Hall possessed such an asset? Pity, though. He encountered you."
Hun Lao discerned the nature of the long saber at a glance and couldn't help but sneer.
Ye Yunfei pointed a finger. The white short sword appeared, transforming into a streak of white light that slashed forward.
*Clang!* The long saber in the Hall Master's hand was sent flying. Then his body was struck by the white short sword, exploding once more like a smashed watermelon, splattering in every direction.
Previously, protected by that long saber, Ye Yunfei's earlier punch had shattered the Hall Master's body, but he could still reform. Now it was different; he had been struck by the white short sword. This was a True God-level Dao Weapon, its power utterly terrifying, inflicting lethal damage to his physical body and Soul Body.
"Aah... I cannot accept this! Ye Yunfei, you little bastard! To think our Heavenly God Hall survived such a long stretch of time, only to be exterminated today by a junior like you. I am ashamed to face our ancestors of the Heavenly God Hall!"
The Hall Master was now completely despairing, letting out a piercing roar of anguish.
The next moment, his Soul Body was divided between Ye Yunfei and Huang Shang, while his bloodline essence was refined and absorbed by the Blood Clan Avatar.
Subsequently, the soul bodies and bloodline essences of the other four Deities were also completely split between Ye Yunfei and Huang Shang.
Shortly after, the battle within the Heavenly God Hall's headquarters had concluded.
Most of the Heavenly God Hall's forces had been killed. Only an extremely small minority had managed to escape.
Looking around, mountains of corpses and rivers of blood lay everywhere within the Heavenly God Hall headquarters. A dense crimson haze of bloody mist spiraled skyward, turning the place into a massive crimson slaughterhouse. All sixty Deity Puppets returned to Ye Yunfei's side.
"Those who kill shall eternally be killed; those who bully others shall eternally be bullied!"
Ye Yunfei, with his hands behind his back, coldly surveyed the Heavenly God Hall headquarters littered with corpses, his expression utterly pitiless, speaking indifferently.
Afterwards, Ye Yunfei, along with Hu Miao, the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm, Huang Shang, and others, looted every valuable item within the Heavenly God Hall headquarters. By the time Ye Yunfei walked out, the interior had completely become a wasteland.
Ye Yunfei then departed from this Ziwei World Cluster.
"Shocking news! The Heavenly God Hall has been wiped out!"
"It was destroyed by Ye Yunfei! I saw with my own eyes earlier, Ye Yunfei entering the Heavenly God Hall headquarters and then walking back out."
Roughly half a day after Ye Yunfei left the Heavenly God Hall headquarters, several people finally mustered the courage to enter. They were met with the sight of corpses everywhere and rivers of blood, leaving them utterly shocked. They then cried out in disbelief.
Soon, news of the Heavenly God Hall's destruction by Ye Yunfei began to spread through the void at a startling speed. Everyone who heard the news was shocked beyond measure.
"It seems Ye Yunfei has no intention of letting go of those major powers who once offended him! Actually, I foresaw something like this happening long ago. Don't you know Ye Yunfei is the type who always repays every grievance? Now the Heavenly God Hall has been destroyed. Will the other major powers who provoked Ye Yunfei be next? I don't think Ye Yunfei will stop here. First, it was the Fire Clan. Then, the Guardian Faction's headquarters. Now, the Heavenly God Hall. Mark my words; Ye Yunfei will definitely cause trouble for other major powers with whom he has past grudges."
Throughout the void, there were rampant discussions.
Simultaneously, the various major powers who had conflicts with Ye Yunfei in the past shivered in fear upon receiving the news.
The Dark Faction, in particular, reacted fiercely.
Within the Dark Faction's headquarters, upon receiving news of the Heavenly God Hall's destruction, all high-level members immediately gathered in the council hall to discuss countermeasures nervously.
"We must split our forces into two groups now. One half of our forces will immediately begin withdrawing, heading toward several secret bases we prepared earlier. These evacuees represent the hope for the Dark Faction's future resurgence. Once at the secret bases, you must keep a low profile; absolutely do not expose yourselves. The other half of our forces will remain at the headquarters, awaiting Ye Yunfei's arrival."
After deliberating for a long while, these Dark Faction leaders finally reached a final decision. The Deity seated in the very center stood up and declared clearly.
Following this Deity's order, numerous Dark Faction members immediately began secretly leaving the headquarters, splitting into several groups heading in different directions.
At this very moment, Ye Yunfei was also heading toward the Dark Faction's headquarters.
"In their efforts to nurture that Yin Seed within our Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds all those years ago, the Dark Faction likely caused countless innocent casualties. They also ended up sealing off the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, isolating our world cluster from the outer void for a very long time. Now, the time to settle the final score has arrived."
Ye Yunfei's gaze turned toward the direction of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds' headquarters as he slowly spoke, his eyes filled with dense killing intent.
It could be said that aside from the Guardian Faction, the Dark Faction held the deepest grievance with the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds in this void.
In the past ages, the Dark Faction had brought heavy calamity upon the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, especially through the so-called World-Ending Wars they had launched multiple times, which caused innumerable innocent casualties. Ye Yunfei, as a member of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, would naturally not forget these debts of blood.
Not long after, Ye Yunfei suddenly came to a stop, his gaze fixed on a world cluster ahead exuding dense black mist. This world cluster was the headquarters of the Dark Faction.
The Dark Faction's headquarters was located at a border region of this void, where thick, ominous black mist coiled everywhere. Anyone who arrived here would feel an eerie dread and a chill coursing through their body.
