Inevitable Road To Divinity 244 What's your worth?

The Ildre, shouted as he felt the death's scythe on his son's neck! As Clan Head, he has some experience, and as experienced as he is, he already could guess the train of thoughs of the emperor with single peek at his uncertain face...

"The Emperor! Nyua has talent that no one has seen in years!"

He sent his mind transmission, telling about his son even more in order to save him!

Main reason of this meeting is definitely to talk about war. Knowing this, Ildre knew that the emperor is going to abandon his soon if he doesn't do anything! Nyua himself could only roughly breathe, staying frozen on the ground...

"Black devil... How has he offended you? We are willing to recompensate with artifact-"

"He bad mouthed my woman. Piece of shit thinks he is some kind of golden kid as he spits his shitty saliva with digusting mouth of his, so it's natural flow of events to have his face grinded up by my armor! Kyahahah~~"

Everyone couldn't help, but turn to this brat. Since devil hides his identity, it's him being simply unlucky! Several sighs of disappointment reverberated throughout the place, worsening the state of already horrified Nyua.

"And his sword... Ahn~~"

Xue Ren screamed like litte bitch, sounding like Sistisse!

"I want it so much so don't take it away from meeee~~"

"DEVIL! SHUT THE FUCK UP!"

"Ah? Who the fuck are you? Ahh? Useless shit neither handsome or strong~~ What can you actually do? Kyahahahah~~"

"!"

Xue Ren, as if angered by those words or maybe simply showing his strength activated his 'dimension'. As it has been said before, those above medium worlds fight using it. Only talented ones can unleash such dimension, so...

"Wait, black devil!"

The Emperor hurriedly stopped Xue Ren. The beginning of Xue Ren's dimension was already enough to make a decision... Such pressure was overwhelming even for the very emperor himself... The huge, black streads of sin's energy that spread itself around Xue Ren came back to him immediately as emperor's voice reached his ears.

"As you heard, Nyua is talented individual. So, fight him and if he survives five minutes with you, then spare him."

The strongest person in Salus Empire could only come up with such solution! However, it wasn't the end, he peeked at Ildre who had already few tears on his eyes and continued his talk.

"And the sword that Nyua has is heirloom of Cadere Clan, so it's normal for Clan Head to participate in the battle, since you want the sword as well."

Closing his eyes after his words, the emperor wished that Xue Ren is going to agree while father and son duo bloomed with happiness! It was hope meaning that if they together fight, surviving five minutes is doable!

"Kyahahah~~ Are you serious?"

The black abomination descended gently, his red spear blowing out everything around him creating something akin to small arena. Kuzan who was above was gracious enough to use earth attribute to make small walls!

With spear longed into the earth, Xue Ren waited for his opponents as this setting was actually better than he thought! While he was leisurely resting on his spear, The Emperor passed down pills for his subordinates...

"Those are from Six Path Realm... Our alchemists have specified those as 'Soldyfing Skin' pills... It will greatly boost your physical bodies, thus, you will be able to use 'those' without any hurtful side-effects."

He gave them pills to boost their strength. It's normal to care about such talented individuals! The first pills were actually were precious as they came directly from Six Path Realm, making their defences to soar while letting them use boosting pills that are mostly used when one knows one is going to die!

However, if they mix those pills, then they can win and maintain their talents and powers without sarcificing them! Emperor simply couldn't let them go that easily!

Those pills show how valuable they are as battle power If Xue Ren actually could find recipe to make them in Six Path Realm, then possibility of him being able to make them is actually huge considering his abnormal control of energy and talent in this regard.

""Here we go!""

"Duo Of IdioTs~~"

Indeed! Feeling the surge of power, the duo actually lunged themselves at Xue Ren with intention to kill him! Sudden strength caused by boosting caused them to lose sense of rationality and their initial thoughts immediately reversed!

Their swords already hunging atop Xue Ren, ready to descend! He saw how their bodies changed into something like earth as skin looked literally like cracked earth while power coming from them was between mid and high rank.

"Hahahha~~"

The black devil could only laugh at their futile attempts. His spear blocking the swords without any problem at all... The duo could only grit their teeth and press forward, but what happened next stupefied everyone.

The black devil disappeared for everyone other than emperor. Only he could see how Xue Ren slashed the bodies of his subordinates breaking through their defences easily with his sharp energy...

His flexibility of both weapon and body caused the emperor to marvel at his 'battle dance...' even though the dance he saw was like the slideshow... One spear slashed while other penetrated through the shoulder of father as he turned his body immediately connecting those two attacks like experienced warrior.

"Such speed..."

"This is no joke. If not our formations from ancestors, then we..."

"..."

The duo flew through the arena with wounds on their bodies. The father had huge hole in his shoulder while Nyua whole torso slashed mercilessly. One could see his bones and flesh leaving his body!

"Arghhhhhhhhhhh!"

And poor victim screamed incessantly as he could feel Xue Ren grinding his insides as the alive armor began devouring him! Pressing forward his leg against the 'talented' prodigy, Xue Ren spoke loudly.

"You have inherited your strongest genes and talent, so why can't you use them fully? Why can't you touch me? Kyahahah~~"

"Arghhhhhhh! Father! S-save meeeeeee!"

"S-STOP!"

The father chimed in, the pain he experienced from Xue Ren overshadowed by painful screams of his most talented son. He lunged himself forward as adrenaline had done its job surpressing his pain and stimulating his sword to the extreme.

It was lie that Nyua had heirloom! The one who had it was father, his sword getting boosted by pills he had taken. Becoming the most sharpest weapon Ildre seen in his whole life, the sword went forward with intention to kill!

And Xue Ren as if not being able to react, let the sword pierce his side... But could it really pierce the black devil skin?

'How... can this be...'

The tip couldn't even penetrate through... Xue Ren's blood art, although had 'imagined' dragon skin, it was still dragon, hence, high race skin was now showing its power and capability!

'Ever since the beginning... we couldn't... hurt him...'

It definitely felt bad, like the destiny was toying with him and his clan! Ildre could only look at Xue Ren with wide eyes, slowly turning below to take a good look at his son, who also had his eyes pleading!

"Aaaaaargh!-Aaaahh-Ah...."

Losing his heart, Nyua soon died. His last screames were indeed painful to listen to, but what came next was even more painful!

Xue Ren lightly pushed off Ildre who was standing stupefied next to him. As the powerless clan head fell onto his butt, Xue Ren took the sword of Nyua and plunged it into the ground in front of the fallen father.

"You aren't as handsome as me."

""...""

Then, he squated before the sword, his hand resting on its hilt.

"You aren't as strong as me."

""...""

The hand slowly began going down causing the sword to likewise disappear slowly. Xue Ren could connect to Duan Qiu's divine sword from outside, her dimension already converting the whole sword into Sword Qi to absorb.

Seeing the sword being destroyed, Ildre's heart began slowly cracking. He couldn't care less about the words of black devil, but as the last sentence rang out...

"You can't protect your son-"

Xue Ren raised his other free hand up above! The heads of the black ranks from Cadere Clan began falling from the sky one by one... Smashing into the ground, their blood and flesh splattered around him! Since the path towards treasury had a lot of those black ranks, the fun wasn't without Ildre getting stained as well...

"-nor you can't protect your clan members."

"Ah- Ahhhhh! Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"

"So... what's your worth? KyahhahahahH~~"
