Chapter 129: Chapter 110: Mastering Cause and Effect, The Method of Crafting Wings of Time-Space
Facing five Fusion Technique experts, Liu Emperor, who originally had an imposing aura and was ready to strike hard, instantly became subservient, speaking in a low and humble tone.
"Esteemed seniors, please enjoy your meal and drinks to your heart's content, for I will cover this table. I will go and pay immediately."
Liu Emperor's face took on a slightly stiff expression as he forced a smile, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead and tremblingly stepping backward, ready to leave.
But how could everyone just let him walk away?
"Think you can kick in the door and just walk away? Get back in here." Feng Ran sneered coldly and raised his palm; a flash of silver light suddenly appeared, instantly sucking Liu Emperor in. With a thump, he was forced onto his knees on the ground.
"Esteemed seniors, it was my impulsive mistake to enter the wrong room. Please spare me this once." Liu Emperor was shocked and quickly bowed his head in fear. While doing so, he still managed to sneak a glance at Yang Ji.
However, he found Yang Ji smiling with great interest, and even with all the murderous intent in his heart, Liu Emperor didn't dare to so much as breathe heavily and could only humbly kneel before everyone.
"Haha, this old fellow was quite imposing when he was pursuing our Great Sage back in the day. Who would have expected to see him in such an embarrassing state today?" Inside his sleeve, Buddha Child communicated with a laugh.
Liu Emperor's fleeting gaze across Yang Ji's face was brief, but everyone present was sharp enough to catch his subtle movement.
Hong Bo then smiled meaningfully and said, "Whom were you calling out to pay a blood debt to just now? It wasn't our dear brother Yang Ji, was it, hmm?"
"No, not at all, senior, you misunderstood. I indeed entered the wrong room. This young gentleman has such an imposing appearance, a demeanor of integrity, and a natural talent, clearly a good person. How could I possibly seek trouble with him?" Liu Emperor hastily apologized with a smile.
Yang Ji was taken aback, feeling somewhat against his will.
Nevertheless, he had to admire Liu Emperor, who sought to calm himself down even in the presence of five Fusion Technique experts, though he appeared to be subservient.
Complex emotions hid behind his eyes while he purposefully showed fear on his exterior, truly deserving respect for living to such an age, being able to adapt and respond with ease, which was perhaps why he had managed to cultivate up to the Void Refinement Realm.
What puzzled Yang Ji was that, considering his cunning, Liu Emperor was not the type of rash person to be so arrogant as to kick down the door.
As he pondered this, Liu Emperor infuriatedly transmitted his voice to his subordinates outside the door, "You fool, didn't you tell me that these six were courteous to him, all simpletons? How come they are all Fusion Technique experts?"
"Lord, those six were indeed very courteous to him. I thought they were being friendly to a mere Nascent Soul Minor Cultivator, so they seemed like unremarkable figures to me. Who knew they were all Fusion Technique experts?"
"Lord, but that's the truth, look, they were really quite nice to him, they even called him 'young brother'."
"You... you fool, you've misled me!" Liu Emperor was filled with sorrow and anger.
"Lord... Lord, it was you who were blinded by the desire to kill, you acted impulsively."
"Pfft!" Liu Emperor felt like vomiting blood in frustration, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Outside, two men in black robes sensed that something was wrong and exchanged glances, preparing to make a quiet exit.
But after taking only two steps, they heard Mu Yuan, the Great Sage, speak in a cold voice, "Get back in here."
With a single gesture towards the door, the two men in black robes turned into two arcs of light that dove into his palm.
"Ah! A world within the palm, the universe at your fingertips, are you Mahayana?" The two continuously shrinking figures scrambled in the hand of Mu Yuan, losing their composure in shock.
"Demon Emperor? Two beings comparable to the Void Refinement Realm," Yang Ji's gaze sharpened as he identified them in one word, frightening them even more.
At the same time, Liu Emperor kneeling on the ground heard these words and also shuddered quietly.
"How dare you collude with Heavenly Demons, you deserve death!" Mu Yuan suddenly raged, and his fingers quietly came together, eliciting screams from the two Heavenly Demons in his palm.
"Ah, you can't kill us. Sky Halberd Demon Emperor won't let you off."
"Humph, Demon Emperor? Even if the Demon God came, I would slay him just the same," Mu Yuan was not someone to be trifled with – he was a Red Dust Immortal; a mere Demon Emperor was at most comparable to Mahayana, and even a Demon God was just a Tribulation Immortal. Even if the Demon Lord himself came, it would be useless. The death of the two demons was sealed.
With his fingers clenched, two screams were heard, followed by two wisps of black smoke – the two Demon Emperors had their souls scattered, thoroughly annihilated.
"The Outer Realm Demons are cruel and venomous, seeing the various races as food, and are despised in the Myriad Realms like rats in the streets, killed on sight, and wherever they go, no good comes of it," Gao Shi spoke in a grave tone.
"This man dared to collaborate with Heavenly Demons, he must die!" Feng Ran said sternly.
"S-seniors, I beg you for mercy," Liu Emperor called, trembling, truly frightened.
"Regardless of your grudge with young friend Yang, because of these two Heavenly Demons, I have taken on your karma," said Mu Yuan as he reached out his palm towards Liu Emperor and pulled him into it. His Divine Sense flooded into Liu Emperor's sea of consciousness, forcefully extracting his memories.
Liu Emperor's seven orifices bled, and his soul was instantly scattered.
"So it was all filthy dealings." Mu Yuan's expression turned icy as a fierce flame ignited in his hand, instantly reducing Liu Emperor's corpse to ashes.
Two Demon Emperors and one of the Void Refinement Realm met their tragic demise instantly. Outside, the last man from Castle of Emperor Liu, in utter panic, turned to flee.
But as he did, Mu Yuan simply lifted his gaze, grasped the air above, and a streak of light shot into his palm. With a clench of his fingers, the person inside was crushed into a spray of blood before even a scream could escape.
In the blink of an eye, all four were dead.
"Ah, you killed them all?" Qing Ling, who came to intervene, saw Mu Yuan unleashing his divine might and couldn't help but exclaim.
"This karma should not spread. Let it be buried here forever." A layer of Immortal Light suddenly surged within Mu Yuan, quickly covering everyone inside Xianlai Restaurant.
