Chapter 948: Assassination, Curse, Betrayal

When the transparent thief was just taken down, all the other Heaven Rankers were secretly happy with the result. They felt like if they weren't able to get the Divine Blood, then no one else should have the right to take it. However, while they were secretly laughing at the transparent shadow, they were also frightened. The strengths of this Dragon Emperor and the Underworld Emperor may not be that much lesser than Sky Execution.

Qinglang, Wanjiao, and Louluo secretly frowned. With how strong the Dragon Emperor and the Underworld Emperor were, they felt that even if they were able to win the battle, it would be quite difficult as they might have to pay the price of being inflicted with serious injuries. It was already so difficult to fight with them 1v1, so if one of them had to take on two or even three? It would be impossible to defeat. Sky Execution, especially, whose real strength was most likely no less than that of any Country-Lord-level powerhouse present.

The Country Lord Zhi Feng knew that the Divine Blood would not fall into the wrong hands, so he didn't bother to try and stop the thief.

Instead, he rushed towards the Young Master Titan without hesitation.

No kidding, compared to the Divine Blood, if this Young Master was attacked, that would be the most terrifying outcome!

Just as the thief was captured and everyone was at ease for a moment, things suddenly changed again. Country Lord Zhi Feng saw that among the guests, there were suddenly two Heaven Rankers that were originally ordinary in appearance and strength, but in an instant they revealed their true strength that was as formidable as his— perhaps even stronger. The most shocking part for the Country Lord Zhi Feng was that these two guys were not aiming at the Divine Blood at all. Actually, they were aiming at the Young Master Titan!

If these two were merely going to take the Young Master captive, that would have been considered slightly okay. However, when Zhi Feng saw these two enemies making a move, he shouted out a warning. These two didn't plan on taking things easy as they seemed like they were planning to kill the Young Master Titan.

If the Young Master Titan was killed, no one could afford to pay the price of the consequences.

He was sure that the entire Heavenly Splendour Territory would be doomed. As the Country Lord who was responsible for the reception, he estimated that him dying 10,000 deaths would not be enough!

“Thieves, how dare you?” The thought flashed in the mind of the Country Lord Zhi Feng. He was furious and tried his best, intending to intercept the attacks of the two assassins. Not to mention Country Lord Zhi Feng, even Qinglang, Wanjiao, and Louluo, who were watching the ceremony with a cold eye, exclaimed in their hearts. If the Young Master Titan were to die here, they would be in hot water as well. But as they didn't want Sky Execution and the other guards to misunderstand, they merely just stood aside to see how the outcome would turn out.

“Ignorant being, you're asking for death!” Sky Execution, who had been staying by Yue Yang's side this entire time, raised his hand of lightning. With one blow, the two assassins were about to be sent flying.

“Ah?” Seeing Sky Execution's attack, the three Country Lords couldn't help but feel goosebumps form on their skin. Even though it was predicted, they still underestimated the power of this fella!

A gorgeous starlight flashed.

Hu Lei discovered that these starlights actually came from behind him.

Due to some misunderstandings with the Young Master Titan previously, although he was forgiven, Hu Lei always wanted to apologise better.

However, with his status, he could only sit at the outermost periphery of the main hall, seated with a group of Heaven Rankers who came to celebrate. After he discovered the transparent thief, the thief was already captured, so when he found the second wave of sneak attackers, he had already increased his strength and was ready to help whenever he was needed. Perhaps the Young Master Titan was not really in danger, but Hu Lei didn't mind showing off a bit.

At this time, from behind him, thousands of dazzling starlight burst forth, making Hu Lei stunned.

Was there an enemy in the back?

It was too late to turn around.

Those incomparably beautiful starlights have already radiated into thousands of stars and turned into a dreamlike galaxy. Everyone in the audience was deeply fascinated by this perfect and unparalleled galaxy.

Hu Lei found that everyone in the audience was dumbfounded.

Only Country Lord Zhi Feng was moving slowly, but Hu Lei was horrified to find out— how could Country Lord Zhi Feng be crawling like an ant? Wasn't this speed too slow?

Country Lord Zhi Feng knew what was going on. It was none other than the power of the Domain, or the special ability of some kind of treasure that was at least at a Quasi-Divine level. This terrifying force restricted the movements of everyone in the audience for a short period of time. The Country Lord Zhi Feng couldn't take care of the Divine Blood anymore as now, the most important thing was to protect the Young Master Titan. What the enemy wanted to seize was not only the Divine Blood, but also the life of this Young Master Titan. Country Lord Zhi Feng couldn't even care about his favourite Zhu Guang as he rushed to the motionless Young Master Titan first.

As Country Lord Zhi Feng was about to intercept the assassin just now, when he returned again, he was already at a certain distance from the Young Master Titan.

Although the distance was less than two metres, the distance was as far away as a moat, making the Country Lord Zhi Feng feel that it was insurmountable at this speed.

On the other side, with a single strike of the lightning hand, Sky Execution, which blasted away the two powerful enemies, was also returning quickly. However, his speed was incomparably different from that of Country Lord Zhi Feng. He was just a little faster but he was also far from returning to Yue Yang's side.

“…” Zhu Guang's lips trembled slightly as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.

She returned to her motionless appearance and waited for the situation to change.

The two powerful assassins who were shot by Sky Execution seemed to have some sort of treasures to protect them as they ignored the stagnation of this galaxy.

They were as fast as the released arrows from a sharp bow as they launched attacks at Yue Yang furiously. A strange light flashed under their hands as the two purple-black assassination daggers shone with the light of death.

“No!”

Country Lord Zhi Feng was so anxious that he wanted to cry tearlessly. They could kill anyone, but why did he have to kill this Young Master from the Heaven Realm? This Young Master has a lot of treasures so it was no problem to rob him, but they must not kill him. Once he was killed, would this Heavenly Splendour Territory still exist? However, Country Lord Zhi Feng was powerless to stop it, so he could only watch this tragedy unfold.

Under the watchful eyes of the public, just as the two assassins were about to stab the Young Master Titan's heart with their daggers, suddenly, the pet dog that had been crawling under the table and gnawing at bones jumped up.

It moved like a rabbit with lightning fast agility.

Even the power of the Galaxy of Stars, which was estimated to be at least a Quasi-Divine artifact, could not stop its speedy activities. That was because the Country Lord Zhi Feng, Qinglang, Wanjiao, Louluo and the other Heaven Rankers found that this stupid-looking dog turned out to be a Divine Beast!

The will of the Divine Beast exploded wildly, offsetting the instantaneous suppression of the treasure's power.

It summoned the Grimoire and first blocked the fatal blow of the two assassins with a shield before it loaded its immobile master into the Grimoire World.

They turned into a swirling black fire smoke that spun like a tornado and escaped from the hall of the Green Willow Palace.

The two assassins who missed their first shot were about to pursue, but the other monster who had not reacted to the suppression had stopped them. They were well-informed so they couldn't help but exclaim, “An Advanced Wisdom Earth Divine Soldier?”

To a certain extent, although the Earth Divine Soldier was rare, it was not the most unique thing.

However, it was an absolutely rare existence for an Earth Divine Soldier that knew how to transform into weapons and have the wisdom to cover its master's escape at a critical juncture. In other words, between the ordinary Earth Divine Soldiers and those with Advanced Wisdom, it was undoubtedly comparable to the gap between Heaven Ranked Beasts and Divine Beasts. Although one was strong, it was not destined to have a very bright future; but the other was not only powerful, but also destined to have an immeasurable future. The same was true here: one was a normal Earth Divine Soldier, but the other had immeasurable potential to grow and achieve greatness!

The Tao Tie Blade was blindingly sharp as its whole body intercepted the enemy like an iron wall.

The two assassins exhausted all means but could not pass its interception range. They could only watch the Divine Beast leave, sighing helplessly.

Fortunately, this Earth Divine Soldier was eager to protect its master. When its master was completely out of danger, he immediately turned into a black light. Just like the birth of an artifact, it directly split the space and returned to its master directly through the ability of anti-summoning.

Country Lord Zhi Feng was moved to death.

That inconspicuous black dog turned out to be a Divine Beast and that ferocious-looking monster, the Earth Divine Soldier, had such a high level of intelligence— what a true show-stopper! No matter who the enemy was and who offended the Young Master Titan, their fate was destined to be difficult. Especially now that Master Titan had escaped danger safely, the enemy's wishful thinking had failed and it was time for their turn to be cursed with fatal injuries.

Qinglang and other two Country Lords were scared to death.

How could they ever have guessed that the dog that has been chewing on the bones turned out to be a Divine Beast?

Fortunately, they didn't take the action to rob the Young Master Titan; otherwise, they really didn't know how they were going to meet their end. With the Divine Beast and the Earth Divine Soldier by his side, paired with Sky Execution, the Dragon Emperor and the Underworld Emperor, not to mention the numerous Heaven Rankers, it was impossible for anyone to touch the Young Master Titan. No joke, they might as well have a better shot at attacking the Sacred Light Domain Emperor!

The Young Master Titan finally escaped.

However, the crisis was still there.

While the power of treasure suppression was still in effect, the two assassins did not escape as one of them rushed towards the Country Lord Zhi Feng.

The other one made his way to Zhu Guang.

Faster than the two assassins, someone in the hall floated in from the door of the Hall of Glory as leisurely as returning to his own room. His movements were slow and steady, but his speed was better than the lightning-fast assassins. Everyone could clearly see that a golden man had walked into the hall. His appearance was so handsome that made other people sigh. Besides the charismatic Young Master Titan, even Sky Execution had flattered a bit due to his appearance. This handsome man wearing a golden dragon-patterned battle armour was holding a blazing lightsaber in his right hand. Even if he never wielded it, the sword's aura seemed to have penetrated everyone's heart.

In his left hand, he held a Star Galaxy Necklace that shone as bright as the Milky Way.

Under the watchful eyes of the public, the man returned the sword to its sheath. He held the golden box that was in Chief Steward Ye's hand and then shattered the space with some kind of golden light power before disappearing instantly. The fists of Sky Execution and Country Lord Zhi Feng slammed at where he last stopped, but they hit nothing.

“Holding the Quasi-Divine artifact, the Light Divine Sword, and the Star Galaxy Necklace— this person is the Vengeance Domain Emperor, it must be,” Qinglang shouted.

“Humph!” Country Lord Zhi Feng didn't think so. This man was indeed very similar to the Vengeance Domain Emperor, but if he was going to come, there was no need to reveal his true face. With the power of the Domain Emperor, he could completely kill all the people in the audience before leaving. For a drop of Divine Blood, why would he use such frivolous means? With the ability of the Vengeance Domain Emperor, it would be far easier to make friends with Young Master Titan than himself, so why deliberately choose murder? Someone must have deliberately pretended to be the Vengeance Domain Emperor. Especially when the Young Master Titan had just escaped safely, he took his time to reveal himself. He probably did so with the intention to frame someone else and put the blame away from him.

In the Heavenly Splendour Territory, how many people would have the strength to push the blame towards the Vengeance Domain Emperor?

Besides the other two Domain Emperors, there's only the Central Palace left. Would the two Domain Emperors have the guts to assassinate the Young Master Titan of the Upper Heaven Realm in public like this? No matter how stupid the Sacred Light Domain Emperor and the Rage Domain Emperor were, they probably wouldn't do such a thing, right? If that was the case, then besides the Heaven Rankers of the Upper Realm that played a part in the roles of the Four Major Families, there would be…

The Country Lord Zhi Feng was not an idiot. He thought about it and was enraged, however, he just didn't want to reveal the person in front of a crowd.

“Help!” Zhu Guang exclaimed as she lost her composure.

Without the role of the treasure's special ability, Star Galaxy, Country Lord Zhi Feng could easily evade the enemy's attack. However, Zhu Guang couldn't.

The weak woman was almost killed in one blow by the assassin.

Fortunately, the loyal Captain of the Guard, Yu Chao, sacrificed his life to save her as he barely managed to block the assassin's attack.

The Country Lord Zhi Feng didn't have the time to explain the accident to Sky Execution and others, so he rushed to rescue his most beloved woman. Sky Execution also went to the captured transparent thief, ready to interrogate whoever gave the order to assassinate the Young Master Titan and make an enemy out of a noble clan of the Upper Heaven Realm.

The two assassins were at the end of the road, fighting to their deaths with every move.

Country Lord Zhi Feng was determined to take them down and torture them by force. As he dealt with them calmly, he gestured to Zhu Guang to stay away. It was best for her to retreat to Sky Execution and other strong men's side to seek protection.

“After I die, you, and everyone present, will be cursed. If you want to survive, you must take the Liberty Queen to the Central Island of Zhi Feng. Hahaha, you are all caught up in the trap,” The transparent thief laughed madly as his originally transparent body gradually emerged with countless rune patterns, rapidly expanding the mutation. Finally, he exploded silently, splashing the fragments of the mutated black rune pattern on the warriors in the entire hall.

“…” Sky Execution fought with his energy but found that it was of no use at all. The rune fragments also disappeared into his arms and disappeared into his body and he couldn't help but frown.

“There is indeed an abnormal energy invasion from these fragments— this is a curse, it's a curse!” Country Lord Wanjiao yelled in disgust.

“Damn, let's take down those two damn assassins together. Brother Zhi Feng, let's help you!” Just when Country Lord Qinglang was willing to step forward and help the Country Lord Zhi Feng, suddenly the two assassins emerged signs of pre-explosions.

“My Lord, go!” The loyal Yu Chao rushed to the enemy. He was willing to die with the enemy if it meant that his Lord would remain alive.

“You want to explode? Hmph! It's not that easy!” COuntry Lord Zhi Feng knew that it was not impossible for them to explode, but it took time. In the hands of powerful people such as himself and Sky Execution, could it really be easy for them to explode? Even if two couldn't be stopped, at least one could be captured, right? Otherwise, do these desperados really think that his title as a Country Lord was just for show?

Country Lord Zhi Feng rushed to attack the two assassins as he stood with Yu Chao.

Country Lords Qinglang, Wanjiao, and Louluo have already rushed over. Sky Execution, the Dragon Emperor and the Underworld Emperor also surrounded them in circles. If the two wanted to self-destruct, they had to go through them first!

Just when the situation became a foregone conclusion, misfortune broke out.

Yu Chao, who had always been loyal, suddenly stabbed a dagger into the back of Country Lord Zhi Feng's heart. This poisonous assassination dagger was exactly the same as those in the hands of the two assassins. Ignoring the Body-protecting Dragon Leather Armour of the Country Lord Zhi Feng, it directly penetrated his back muscles and impaled itself into his heart. The steward took Zhu Guang in one hand as a flash of golden brilliance lit up the hall.

Yu Chao, the two assassins, the steward and Zhu Guang all broke open the space weirdly and teleported away in the moment before anyone could react.

Their way of leaving was exactly the same as the way the handsome man who stole the Divine Blood left.

The Country Lord Zhi Feng fell to the ground and blood was gushing from where the dagger was impaled.

No one spoke for a long time.

Nobody could have imagined that things would turn out like this, and even the three Country Lords Qinglang, Wanjiao, and Louluo, who were going to come to make a mess, could never have imagined that this would happen.
