Peerless Martial God

“Watchers!” the crowd in the distance were amazed. The legendary Watchers were there, in front of them! Besides, they looked a lot stronger than in the legends!

According to legends, the Watchers only protected those who had the potential to become emperors, but those ones seemed different.

“The Imperial Assassin Union hadn’t appeared for so many years. Last time it was a bloodbath. Now, they’re here again, so there must be an impending tragedy for Ba Huang.” thought the crowd.

“Why are the Imperial Assassin Union and the Watchers in Ba Huang?” wondered so many people. That was its own mystery. Why did the Imperial Assassin Union want to take over Ba Huang?

At that moment, Emperor Tian Long felt the pressure. The Watchers’ Father had even shown up, which spelled bad news for him. Emperor Tian Long knew that Emperor Yu had prepared for this for a while already. He had brought Tiantai’s disciples to kill his disciples, he had killed his two sons, he had infuriated him to the point where called upon the Imperial Assassin Union.

“Emperor Yu!” Emperor Tian Long looked furious.

“Emperor Tian Long!” said Watchers’ Father hoarsely. Emperor Tian Long raised his head and looked at him.

“Emperor Tian Long, why did you join hands with the Imperial Assassin Union?” asked the Watchers’ Father in a deep voice.

Emperor Tian Long glanced at the members of the Imperial Assassin Union and then looked at the Watchers’ Father, then Emperor Yu and the others again. He was furious and scared. He was at a dead end.

“Watchers’ Father, I also want to ask you a question.” said Emperor Tian Long. “You’re joining hands with Emperor Yu from Tiantai, who are you actually?”

“It seems like it’s useless to discuss those things, so die!” said the Watchers’ Father hoarsely. In a flash, many of his shadows appeared in the sky, and dazzling arrows filled with cosmic energies descended.

The other Watchers also attacked and shot arrows. There were so many arrows that they blotted out the sky.

“Slash, slash…” many people were transpierced by the arrows Only the strongest ones could resist, otherwise, they died instantly. In a short time, five-six assassins had died.

Emperor Wen was still in the sky, releasing cosmic energies. He raised his hands and sealed the space. A curtain of energies appeared all around them, of which only emperors could destroy.

The person Emperor Yu was facing stepped back. He feared that the Watchers’ Father could still chase him if he ran. Emperor Yu didn’t chase him, instead he raised his hands and released his force, which was multiplied by one-thousand. That cultivator felt oppressed, like his soul was going to be kicked out of his body.

A yellowish stone crushed the cultivator, reducing them to dust. Even if a Zun cultivator controlled cosmic energies, they couldn’t defeat emperors.

Emperor Tian Long crushed two arrows which were moving towards him. A second later, the Watchers’ Father appeared in front of him.

“Be careful!” shouted someone at Emperor Tian Long, making him shake violently.

The Watchers’ Father didn’t move, as if he was in his natural state, but Emperor Tian Long was shaking and sweating. He’d never had that feeling, the feeling that he was going to die. He looked desperate.

“Boom!” a terrifying strength bombarded Emperor Tian Long’s body.

“I can’t block that attack!” Emperor Tian Long couldn’t think clearly. He didn’t try to block it, instead he ran away as fast as he could.

“Dong!” Emperor Tian Long’s soul shook violently as if it was going to explode. A hand passed in front of him. If he had been even one second slower, he would have died.

He was already a thousand meters away, but he was soaked in a cold sweat because the Watchers’ Father was relentless.

“He is hiding his real Qi.” thought Emperor Tian Long. The Watchers’ Father’s attacks don’t seem to contain Qi, which means the Qi inside is hidden. If a cultivator closed their eyes, they wouldn’t know that he was there, even an emperor couldn’t.

Besides, that attack aimed at a cultivator’s soul. Emperor Tian Long knew that if that punch had reached him, he would have died, and his soul would have been destroyed.

However, Emperor Tian Long felt like he had managed to escape from death.

The Watchers’ Father didn’t stop though. He continued chasing Emperor Tian Long silently. Emperor Tian Long was scared shitless when he saw that person wearing the plaited bamboo hat appear here-or-there.

“Bzzz!” several silhouettes of the Watchers’ Father appeared all around and condensed strength at the same time.

“Kacha!” at that moment, a metallic sound rang. Emperor Wen’s curtain of energies broke, and a strong cultivator rushed out towards Emperor Tian Long.

“Boom!” Emperor Tian Long was suddenly surrounded by cosmic energies, but he didn’t look scared. On the other hand, he looked pleasantly surprised. He had hope again. He had managed to escape from death once more.

Amongst the other strong cultivators from the Imperial Assassin Union, there was still one left. It was an emperor-level cultivator!
