Chapter 216 - 214 Death is Not the End

Chapter 216: Chapter 214 Death is Not the End

With flesh and blood splattering in the air, then fading to ashes.

In the capital, figure after figure lost their lives, collapsing to the ground.

At this moment, at this time.

Liang Hui no longer cared as he strode forward.

One punch after another, he aimed at the figures in the sky.

The wails and curses echoed between heaven and earth.

For miles around, the landscape was dyed red with blood, bodies strewn upon the ground.

Luxurious, majestic palaces were reduced to ashes.

And lifeforms were falling in droves, in droves.

The noise within the city walls slowly faded into silence.

Robes drenched in blood, Liang Hui looked down with heavy eyes.

Closely packed corpses blanketed the city.

Crack! Crack!

And at some point, dark, heavy clouds gathered in the sky, with lightning snaking like silver serpents within them.

Smack! Smack!

Raindrops, accompanied by the howling wind, began to fall.

It was as if heaven and earth were weeping for this slaughter.

Liang Hui reached out his palm, feeling the rain that ran across it.

His expression cold, he clenched his hand downwards.

A streak of bright yellow light flew out from the ruins, landing in the youth’s palm.

It was the bright yellow Jade Seal, engraved with nine dragons, the symbol of the imperial right.

But now, the Jade Seal was covered with cracks, as if it could shatter at any moment.

Without much further action, the White Bone Tiger Demon, pulling a chariot, had already arrived before Liang Hui.

A graceful figure stepped slowly out of the chariot, arriving at the youth’s side.

Su Yao reached out her slender hand, taking hold of Liang Hui’s palm.

Pulling out a silk cloth, she gently wiped the blood from his hand.

"Hui, the fate of all beings has come to this, and we are not to blame."

"No need for comfort, it is but a small disturbance."

"All karma, the resentment of all beings, I shall bear."

Liang Hui’s face softened, gently patting the girl’s hand.

At the same time, the White Bone Tiger Demon, with its head bowed low, gazed at the remains on the ground, and let out a low roar.

The Soul Fire in its eye sockets blazed fiercely.

"Go, devour the remains of Chu Nation’s royal family to your heart’s content."

"As for the bodies of the common folk, do not consume a single one!"

True Qi emerged from Liang Hui, clearing the bloodstains from his body, as he slowly spoke.

Man must act according to principle, and not all actions are permissible.

Devouring the corpses of several provinces could make the White Bone Tiger Demon even more powerful.

But such actions would not bring satisfaction!!!

Those insignificant people, born into this world, struggle for survival like wild grass; since they have died, let them have a dignified end.

Besides, he did not lack such warriors.

Roar!

The gigantic tiger head drooped, breaking free of its reins, and charged towards the rubble.

At the same time.

Liang Hui cried out softly.

"Qing Tian!"

Before his voice even fell, the figure of a woman in a green robe had already appeared in the Vault of Heaven.

She looked at the youth with complicated eyes.

"You have killed too many this time."

A light sigh.

Unlike the Sea Beasts and Exotic Beasts upon the East Sea, as her reference for transformation—humanity.

In this world, mankind has always been the favored one by destiny, the eternal protagonist.

Such casualties, by the state, were rarely seen even in ancient times.

Liang Hui did not offer a defence, but raised the arm holding the Jade Seal.

"I will slaughter all the bloodlines of Chu Nation’s royal family, leaving not one alive."

"Okay."

Qing Tian looked complex, but she still nodded.

Moving gracefully, she came to stand beside the youth.

Su Yao thoughtfully gazed at the woman in front of her, flawless and impeccable.

Yet Qing Tian merely glanced at the girl before placing her palm on the Jade Seal, beginning to divine.

At this moment, the Flowing Light Bell, previously worn as an ornament in Liang Hui’s hair, flew out rapidly, hovering above the Jade Seal, emitting an undying divine brilliance.

A mystic aura spread between the two of them, the Jade Seal trembling slightly, continuing to wail.

"Found it!" a low whisper.

Upon hearing this, Liang Hui didn’t hesitate, releasing all the remaining aura of destruction.

At the same time, the Flowing Light Bell also let out a series of bell chimes!

...

Ten thousand miles away, deep underground.

Nearly a hundred figures, either sitting, standing, or moving, all wore luxurious garments, with tense expressions.

"Do you think our emperor will succeed?"

"He must succeed!"

In comforting others, they were also strengthening their own hearts.

Suddenly, a figure in the crowd exploded, faintly accompanied by the sound of a bell.

At this moment, everyone’s face turned pale.

An old man seated deeply among them widened his eyes in horror.

"How dare he?"

Snap!

Like fruits breaking apart, the sound echoes continuously through the underground space.

In less than a moment, the space was already smeared with blood and flesh.

Such scenes occurred underground, within mountains and rivers, and even in secret realms.

Anyone of the Chu Nation’s royal bloodline faced the most brutal cleansing at this moment.

...

The capital of Chu Nation had turned into a city of death.

A bronze bell floated above the Vault of Heaven, slowly ceasing its swaying.

The Jade Seal beneath it had also turned into dust.

Liang Hui raised his hand to reclaim the bronze bell, looking at the woman in green standing before him.

"Please take care of the common people’s corpses," he said.

Qing Tian nodded, saying nothing more.

Her graceful figure slowly faded, and at the instant she completely vanished,

Liang Hui murmured softly, "Thank you, for all this time."

The phantom paused, and a pair of cold yet all-encompassing beautiful eyes took a deep look at the young man.

Only then did the figure completely dissipate.

Crackle and pop!...

The thunder above the Vault of Heaven grew more intense and rapidly spread outwards.

Bolts of lightning fell from the heavens, burning the corpses that covered the world.

Liang Hui took a step forward, entering the chariot.

Close behind him, Su Yao followed, standing beside the young man without asking anything.

She just leaned on the railing, gazing down at the corpses being burnt, a ripple of emotion stirring deep within her eyes.

She was not as calm as she appeared.

Snap!

A fair hand slapped Su Yao’s arm.

"Don’t overthink it, you’re not qualified to intervene in this slaughter," he said.

"Besides, death is not the end."

Liang Hui gently patted the girl’s shoulder, his voice calm and composed.

The girl nodded, her smile returning.

Turning sideways, she gazed at the young man’s handsome face and her lips parted slightly

"Hui, are you concerned about me?"

She paused, her words taking on a rare seriousness.

"Hui, we’ve known each other for four years now, can you give me a keepsake as a token of our acquaintance?"

Su Yao’s eyes were expressive, her voice gentle.

Though she was clearly asking for a keepsake, there was nothing off-putting about it.

Liang Hui hesitated for a moment, but then reached into his chest.

When his hand emerged again, a bracelet hovered above his palm.

The bracelet was fashioned from six dazzling stones, each shining with a soft light, strung together with silver thread.

"Just something I made when I was bored, take it."

Su Yao took the bracelet, inspecting the delicate carvings on the stones and the dense runes within, her smile widening.

Such craftsmanship hardly seemed like the work of a casual endeavor.

She put the bracelet on her wrist in front of the young man.

At that moment, her beauty, set against the glow of the bracelet, seemed even more lively and radiant.

Liang Hui’s eyes narrowed slightly, his hand turned over, and the snow-white ruler floated silently in his palm.

"This is a replica of the Heaven Measuring Ruler, and it’s quite suitable for you now, take it first," he said.

"Once you grow stronger, I will get the Heaven Measuring Ruler from the Liu Family for you."

"Mm."
