Chapter 415 - Death
Chapter 415 - Death
"Grug!" The emperor was smashed into a large and thick wall of his domain and spat a mouthful of bad blood. His organs were misplaced as they churned upside and downside. He could even feel that his organs had taken a severe injury from this attack.
He knelt on the ground as he tried to stabilize himself. It wasn't easy, to begin with. But with the urgency, he needed to get back up or else he would be dead here.
"Do you think I will really let you escape after all of what you did?" Jin Rou sneered and mocked the emperor, "You are the great emperor of the devils, why don't you stay here and see this to the end?"
"It looks like you are seeing me as someone you can push around now." The emperor was enraged. But he couldn't let his emotions cloud his judgment and said, "If I want to escape, I will do everything to achieve it. What can you do about it?"
Jin Rou couldn't help but wryly smile at the emperor's shamelessness. It looked like he didn't no longer care about his dignity and reputation as the emperor just to run away. Furthermore, he spoke as if he was doing something righteous and was ready to sacrifice himself to be the hero.
"Okay then. I would like to see what tricks are up to your sleeves in order to escape." Jin Rou smirked. Of course, he wasn't putting his guard down and wouldn't dare to underestimate his opponent even if he got the upper hand.
"Activate!" The emperor didn't dally as he immediately used a system. It was to stop time for a few seconds but his time wouldn't. It was a very powerful system, almost on par with Jin Rou's Timeos. However, it was still lacking a bit. After that, he immediately used a portal and was about to enter it.
"Stopping the time around you?" However, a hand once again touched his shoulder. But this time, it was harder and could almost break his bones.
"It's utterly useless in front of me. In fact, mine is still stronger than yours even during my previous cultivation." Jin Rou's eyes flashed with ruthlessness and added force to the enemy's shoulder, "So just accept your death and stop giving others trouble!"
"Ah!" The emperor couldn't help but shout in pain. His shoulder was completely broken and if he didn't return to his realm as soon possible to seek treatment, he would die slowly but surely.
The emperor gritted his teeth and cursed at Jin Rou with hatred, "Damn bastard, how did you become a universal law?!"
He didn't want to admit it. But Jin Rou had truly broke the bounds of zenith realm and became the most powerful existence attainable by the whole multiverse, a universal law.
It was also one of the reason why the emperor was trying his hard best to escape. But seeing that everything would be in vain, he stopped resisting and instead cursed at Jin Rou.
Yanlu Rou almost shook when she heard this. Her speculation was right. Her grandson had truly stepped into that realm! How couldn't she be so proud right now? Even Jin Rou's parents were glowered with pride. Now, their worries had faded and instantly wished Jin Rou to finish it as soon possible so that they could return to their home.
"Let's end this." Jin Rou seemed to have heard the silent pleas of his family and said, "You have wasted too much time, so I shall send you to the black river where reincarnation is impossible."
"You wish!!" The emperor was shaken horror by this and immediately used his blood essence to boost his power. The torrential sea of blood above him became a tranquil sea that could mesmerize people.
"What?!" The emperor was stumped. His torrential blood became a calm one all of a sudden? How was that possible? Did Jin Rou control his essence blood as if it was his own?
If he did, then it was horrifying! Even if he emperor managed to escape here, the trauma and the black shadow was already implanted. No matter what, he wouldn't be able to advance once again and would remain as it was.
"Whoosh!" Then, a lightning spear came and pierced the emperor without further ado. The emperor had lost all hope and though he saw this attack, he sighed and just accepted this fate.
Perhaps, it was already determined from the start. That his clan would never ever rise from their position and would remain as bottom feeders for others.
His eyes were filled with despair. Though it wasn't the first time he felt it, this time it was so heartbreaking that he couldn't even feel the blood oozing from his chest from being pierced. He had prepared everything for so many years, yet it was still all ended up in vain.
Just how cruel reality was? When he gained a power from a universal law, he thought that he would be invincible and perhaps he could break free from the shackles of that person. But ah, reality wasn't in favor of them, not even from the very beginning.
He just wanted his clan to be recognized. That though they were devils, they could still do anything like other universes could. They didn't want to be acknowledged as 'pets' and be pushed around whenever others wanted to.
"Thump!" Just then, the emperor closed his eyes and fell on the ground, lifeless. Perhaps, at the last moment, he saw this as a salvation from his enemy. It wasn't bad losing, after all, lost against someone stronger than him.
Jin Rou could clearly see that bit by bit, the emperor's body was turning into ashes and slowly being carried by the wind. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He wanted to refrain from killing now. But it looked like he couldn't especially in the near future.
There were still so many complications that needed to be settled.
