The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2575: Chapter 2575: Unable to Accept

This person’s identity is a spy for the Yama Palace.

The Yama Palace Alliance Army’s spies have long infiltrated many places in the Thunder Domain. When the spy discovered Xu Yiming was flying at high speed with High-level Thunder Warriors towards the edge of the Thunder Domain, he immediately reported the matter to the higher-ups.

The Yama Palace Alliance Army’s vanguard is currently stationed at the edge of the Thunder Domain.

”Are you sure it’s Xu Yiming?” A Red-clothed Killing Star from the Yama Palace, who received the transmission, asked with some surprise.

Xu Yiming’s fame has grown significantly. If he were only at the Immortal Venerable Peak, he might not catch much attention, but as a Soul Cultivator, he commands the interest of any major figure. Especially after he, with High-level Thunder Warriors, repelled three Black-clothed Killing Stars, his reputation soared even more.

”Sir, I’m extremely certain, it’s definitely Xu Yiming from Hongmeng City, and he’s accompanied by ten Thunder Warriors,” the intelligence officer said confidently.

”Understood,” replied the Red-clothed Killing Star.

Subsequently, the Red-clothed Killing Star reported these developments to Palace Master Yu Hentian.

Xu Yiming obviously wouldn’t head to the edge of the Thunder Domain without reason. Previously, he was pursuing Black-clothed Killing Stars, and a sudden change in direction must have a purpose.

”Xu Yiming heading to the edge of the Thunder Domain? What is his intention?” Yu Hentian frowned.

”Alliance Hierarch, our spies from Tianji Trading House also report seeing Xu Yiming and Thunder Warriors heading to the edge of the Thunder Domain.” President Jiang Yue spoke up as he too received reports from his intelligence personnel.

”This situation seems very strange!” Yu Hentian shook his head.

”Let me inquire with Chen Feng and the others!” Yu Hentian took out his Communication Magical Treasure to contact Chen Feng.

The result, of course, was zero response; Chen Feng, Zhao Yijun, and Zhang Motie had already been eliminated by City Lord Jing Yan.

”What’s going on?”

”What are those three up to?” Yu Hentian waited for a moment but, with no response forthcoming, expressed his dissatisfaction.

He certainly did not anticipate that the three Black-clothed Killing Stars had already perished.

Not only Yu Hentian, but the giants present also did not consider that the Black-clothed Killing Stars were dead. Black-clothed Killing Stars are incredibly powerful, and with spatial instantaneous treasures in their possession, who could kill them? Normally, only an Immortal Emperor could manage such a feat.

Meanwhile, in Hongmeng City.

Chief Bai Han had already spread the news that the three Black-clothed Killing Stars were defeated.

The news spread like a boulder crashing into a lake; every cultivator or adventurer who heard it was moved.

”The Black-clothed Killing Stars were killed?”

”The Black-clothed Killing Stars of Yama Palace? Official news from Hongmeng City?”

”They say City Lord Jing Yan personally acted, slaying three Black-clothed Killing Stars from Yama Palace.”

”This... how is it possible? Don’t those Black-clothed Killing Stars have spatial instantaneous treasures? Even if City Lord Jing Yan is strong, he couldn’t possibly kill them! And he killed three of them!”

Evidently, many cultivators were doubtful of this news, even though it was officially released by Hongmeng City.

In the view of many, Black-clothed Killing Stars are immensely powerful figures, as evidenced by their previous destruction of cities in the Thunder Domain. Even if City Lord Jing Yan caught up with a Black-clothed Killing Star, they thought he could only defeat them, not kill them.

However, the skepticism was strongest at first; subsequently, as more and more people saw related images, they inevitably had to believe in the reality of the news—the Black-clothed Killing Stars had indeed been killed.

”City Lord Jing Yan has defied the heavens!”

”Killing three Black-clothed Killing Stars, what kind of method is this? It’s practically the power of an Immortal Emperor!”

”How did he accomplish it? Isn’t it said that Black-clothed Killing Stars have instantaneous treasures? Even if they were indeed no match for City Lord Jing Yan, couldn’t they use the instantaneous treasures to escape, as they did against Xu Yiming and High-level Thunder Warriors?”

”Hard to fathom! One thing is certain, City Lord Jing Yan must have a way to prevent Black-clothed Killing Stars from escaping. Only thus could he kill all three of the Black-clothed Killing Stars!”

”Three Black-clothed Killing Stars dead, Yama Palace has suffered a significant loss. I’ve heard that apart from the Palace Master, the strongest force of Yama Palace is these three Black-clothed Killing Stars. Their alliance was even capable of assassinating leaders of superpowers. With these three killed, Yama Palace is like a toothless tiger!”

”Previously, Yama Palace sent out three Black-clothed Killing Stars to attack cities in the Thunder Domain repeatedly, causing significant damage to Hongmeng City. But now, Yama Palace must be pained!”

To cultivators and adventurers, the opinion easily sways; whichever side demonstrates strength gets their support.

As ordinary cultivators and adventurers learned of this news, the giants within the Yama Palace Alliance Army inevitably heard of it.

In the upper-tier hall of the Heavenly Domain Flying Boat.

Yu Hentian’s expression was indescribably grim. He struggled to believe that his three strongest subordinates had fallen in the Thunder Domain; he couldn’t grasp this reality, nor accept it!

Yet each attempt to contact Chen Feng returned silence, like messages sent into a void, without any response. He had separately communicated with each of the three Black-clothed Killing Stars, meeting the same outcome.

The inability to reach the Black-clothed Killing Stars coupled with the emerging news made the situation quite apparent.

”Impossible!” Yu Hentian gasped, his palm repeatedly slamming against the table in front of him, sending the beverages and fruits originally placed there tumbling to the ground.

”Alliance Hierarch, the news concerns me. Hongmeng City has already released relevant images. Though full authenticity has yet to be confirmed, Hongmeng City wouldn’t be foolish enough to fabricate such an easily debunked lie to deceive everyone,” said Sima Tianyang of the Sima Family as he looked at Yu Hentian.

”That damned little brat, how many capabilities does he have that we’re unaware of! This fiend must be slain at all costs; otherwise, even if we escape from this, our demise at his hands in the future is certain.” President Jiang Yue roared in a low voice.

Yu Hentian remained silent, a chill surging throughout his body.

”Black-clothed Killing Stars possess the Immortal Road Time-Space Shuttle for instant movement; even if not matched against Jing Yan, they could retreat calmly. But now, it appears Jing Yan has a method to limit the instantaneous movements of Black-clothed Killing Stars. Another possibility exists: Jing Yan also has an instantaneous treasure,” said Mingze Sect Master solemnly.

”I suspect that City Lord Jing Yan may have mastered instantaneous movement himself,” offered Zhang Jianjun, Sect Leader of the Moon Frost Sect from the Extreme North.
