章 1560: Death

[Author's Note: there's been some confusion. Lord Black Worm and the Fading Star Sect Sovereign are two separate people] 

The Twin Reaper didn't just say these words, but his short scythes seemed to tremble with pleasure at the same time, pulsing with happiness as though they had a mind of their own. At the same time, the dense fog around him doubled, then tripled, acting much more like a Domain than a mundane rush of qi. 

He took a step forward. 

"How ironic. A destroyed Sect I hate to the bone, and yet now I have to appear here to defend it. Tell me, kid. What number did I appear at."

"Fifth." Ryu replied with a smile. 

Twin Reaper tilted his head and looked toward the Throne hovering to Ryu's back. 

"Fifth when you have a Throne already? And you managed to make it this far with a Fragmented Sky God cultivation base? I guess we're both not too bad, huh?"

"You could say so. Though, one of us is much more handsome."
