Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

The stream of Spiritual Power attacked from an incredibly cunning angle, aimed at Mu Shanhong’s vitals regardless of how he dodged.

Sensing the fatal threat from behind, Mu Shanhong turned around in utter terror.

The stream of Spiritual Power loomed large before his eyes, but he was already powerless to put up any resistance!

”BOOM!”

Amidst a violent roar, the stream of Spiritual Power exploded.

But Mu Shanhong, who had borne the brunt of the attack, was completely unharmed!

He looked around, his face a mask of astonishment, but he couldn’t see anyone who might have helped him.

Not far away, the three figures who were hunting Mu Shanhong frowned.

”What was that? Did you all see it?”

one of the old men asked.

”It seemed like the space itself… rippled slightly and blocked my attack?”

The young man in the center spoke with some hesitation.

As the one who had launched the sneak attack on Mu Shanhong, he naturally had the clearest view of what had just happened.

But he could hardly believe his own eyes.

The space in front of Mu Shanhong had actually rippled, blocking his attack!

’What’s going on?’

’Could there be a hidden Array up ahead?’

Upon hearing this, the old man also sensed something was wrong. He said, ”I’m afraid there’s some kind of trick hidden up ahead. No wonder this guy was running for his life in this direction. It seems he was hoping to use it to escape disaster.”

”But isn’t this Luoyun Sect’s territory?”

The third person, a stern-faced middle-aged man, spoke up. His brow was furrowed, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

”If I remember correctly, the Luoyun Sect was wiped out, wasn’t it?”

”So who secretly set up this Array here?”

”Hmph!” the old man snorted impatiently. ”Who cares? Let’s just kill this guy and get out of here.”

”What does it matter how many secrets this place holds? It has nothing to do with us.”

Hearing this, the other two nodded and once again locked their fierce gazes on Mu Shanhong.

Seeing this, Mu Shanhong’s face instantly turned pale.

Watching the three of them land before him, he knew there was no way he could escape this time.

”Yang Luo, Li Yuqiao, Xiong Ba…”

”You three… must you really show no mercy today?”

Mu Shanhong said, dragging his battered body and gasping for breath.

”Elder Mu, you killed my brother. I must avenge him!”

”Today, you will die without a doubt!”

Yang Luo spoke slowly, a vicious light glinting in his eyes.

He was the Vice Sect Leader of the Nine Nether Sect!

He was also the brother of the former Nine Nether Sect Leader, Yang Yan!

The old man in the center, Grand Elder Li Yuqiao of the Nine Nether Sect, also spoke up.

He said faintly, ”Out of pity, I’ll let you die knowing why.”

”To tell you the truth, after the Sect Leader died, the Nine Nether Sect was left leaderless and is in urgent need of a new Sect Leader.”

”However, none of the three of us would yield to the others, so we made a secret agreement: whoever avenges the Sect Leader first will become the next Sect Leader of the Nine Nether Sect!”

”You betrayed the Sect Leader back then, luring him to the Cold Wind Sect to be killed. Did you think we didn’t know?”

”To avenge the Sect Leader, and to become the next Sect Leader, you, this scourge, must be eliminated!”

Hearing this, Mu Shanhong felt a despair so profound he couldn’t even cry.

It was true that the Nine Nether Sect Leader, Yang Yan, had gone to the Cold Wind Sect because of him.

However, the one he’d killed with his own hands was only Yang Yan’s son!

He clearly wasn’t the one who killed Yang Yan!

’How did this rumor even start? How did it twist into this version of events?’

But regardless, the fact that he had chosen to betray the Nine Nether Sect under pressure from Ye Chen was undeniable.

”Alright, enough talk. Let’s hurry up and finish this guy off.”

Just then, the young man among the three finally spoke.

His face was ice-cold, his eyes brimming with killing intent. ”Let’s have a little contest and see who takes his head first!”

He was the First Protector of the Nine Nether Sect, Xiong Ba!

His strength was on par with Grand Elder Li Yuqiao and Vice Sect Leader Yang Luo.

After Yang Yan’s death, the three factions had argued endlessly over the position of Sect Leader.

In the end, they had settled on this method to decide who would become the next Sect Leader.

”Fine. He has nowhere to run anyway. Let’s finish this quickly, lest delays breed new problems.”

Yang Luo nodded in agreement.

At that moment, three gazes filled with killing intent all locked onto Mu Shanhong.

Mu Shanhong shuddered. A chill ran through him, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably.

Even now, he still hadn’t seen that young man from before.

’Is there really no escape for me today?’

”Die!”

Xiong Ba was the first to strike. The full power of his Eighth-Layer Spirit Sea Realm cultivation erupted without reservation. The astonishing aura made Mu Shanhong feel like he was suffocating!

He swung his fist, and a vast torrent of Spiritual Power surged forth, smashing directly toward Mu Shanhong.

”Don’t even think about competing with me!”

Seeing this, Grand Elder Li Yuqiao snorted coldly. With a flick of his robes, an invisible force shot through the void, reaching Mu Shanhong in an instant.

Although he struck a moment after Xiong Ba, his attack was so fast that it arrived first!

Seeing both of them launch fatal attacks with their full strength, Yang Luo didn’t dare to hesitate. He gritted his teeth and said, ”I must avenge my brother with my own hands!”

A vast Spiritual Sea churned behind him, sending waves crashing into the air!

His Eighth-Layer Spirit Sea Realm cultivation erupted as well!

Three experts at the Eighth Layer of the Spirit Sea Realm attacked simultaneously!

Their target was clear—they were aiming straight for Mu Shanhong’s vitals!

Watching the three attacks come one after another, Mu Shanhong was completely dumbfounded.

’Was this really necessary?’

’What heinous crime did I commit to deserve having three of the Nine Nether Sect’s top experts attack me with all their might?!’

’It’s over. This is really the end!’

Mu Shanhong’s face was ashen, his heart filled with complete despair.

He simply let himself fall backward. A strange sensation enveloped him, and he felt as if he were falling into a warm lake.

”BOOM!”

Soon, before Mu Shanhong’s terrified eyes, the three attacks exploded one after another in front of him.

However, the space before him rippled like the surface of water.

The three attacks were somehow blocked!

Mu Shanhong was stunned. He could hardly believe it.

’Did I actually survive such a terrifying assault?’

”Hm?”

”I’ll be damned, there really is an Array here?”
