章 32: Fated Death Centipede
"Run! Quickly, run!!"
The disciples of Evil Moon Hall and Blazing Heaven Island were in complete disarray, their faces pale with fear as they fled in panic.
One after another, they scrambled out of the Qian Family estate, heading for any possible escape route.
"Chase them!"
The Qian Family and the Jiang Dynasty forces weren't about to let their enemies escape so easily. With unrelenting ferocity, they pursued the fleeing disciples.
The battle spread from the Qian Family estate into the streets of Tianlin City, turning the entire city into a battleground. The Qian Family and Jiang Empire forces, like merciless grim reapers, cut down the remnants of the three allied factions with brutal efficiency.
Qian Jiuqiu, the Qian Family Patriarch, Tie Poyun, and King Jiang, all Heavenly experts, joined the fray.
Each stood at critical escape points in the city streets, their towering Heavenly Manifestations sealing every possible exit.
"Ahhh!!"
Boom!
Slash!
Streams of spiritual energy surged, and disciples from the three factions fell in waves. Streets became blood-soaked, with bodies piling up at every corner. The once-vibrant city of Tianlin had turned into a hellish scene, its air thick with the metallic stench of blood.
Buildings, inns, and pavilions crumbled under the devastating spiritual energy waves, burying countless enemy disciples in rubble.
The God-Slaying Guards, Golden Armored Guards, and Shadow Guards of the Jiang Dynasty proved to be terrifyingly efficient, cutting down more than half of the disciples from Evil Moon Hall and Blazing Heaven Island.
Their ruthlessness was chilling. They showed no emotion, killing only in service of Jiang HuanYu's commands.
At the Qian Family's central plaza, Qian Xinrou stood amid a mountain of corpses—most belonging to the enemy.
Protected by two Shadow Guards, she remained unharmed. The two guards had already killed thousands of disciples from the three factions, ensuring her safety.
For the first time, Qian Xinrou felt a deep sense of security. Under the unwavering protection of the Shadow Guards, she experienced a calm she had never known before.
Her gaze drifted upward to Jiang HuanYu, standing proudly in the skies.
"Who is he, really?"
"How does he command such mysterious warriors? These Shadow Guards, God-Slaying Guards, and Golden Armored Guards… How did he cultivate such killing machines?!"
To Qian Xinrou, these warriors were no ordinary humans. They were weapons of death, showing absolute loyalty to Jiang HuanYu and treating human lives as if they were nothing.
Jiang HuanYu, having killed Shen Ningfa and Jiang Baisheng, turned his gaze toward Feng Mobai.
"Master Feng, it seems it's your turn now," Jiang HuanYu said with a faint smile, raising his hand slowly.
"Wait!!"
"Your Majesty, please!" Feng Mobai pleaded, his face pale with fear.
"My Xuanyuan Mountain has no past grudges or recent conflicts with your Jiang Empire! We've never offended you!"
"And those who killed your father—they were from the Blood Shadow Tower, not me!"
"You can't kill me! I'm innocent!" Feng Mobai's composure shattered completely. His legs trembled as he begged for his life.

Jiang HuanYu chuckled darkly. "And yet, you allied with Evil Moon Hall and plotted to destroy the Qian Family, intending to target my empire next. Does that sound innocent to you?"
"No! No, you misunderstand!" Feng Mobai cried. "I tricked them! I never intended to oppose the Jiang Empire!"
Jiang HuanYu's smile widened. "It doesn't matter. Innocent or not, you'll still die."
"One of my principles is to eliminate threats before they arise."
A powerful energy orb formed in Jiang HuanYu's palm as he prepared to strike.
In desperation, Feng Mobai's eyes darted toward the tea house, where Death Centipede, the blindfolded assassin, had been observing.
"Wait!"
"Your Majesty, I have valuable information!" Feng Mobai shouted. "That blind scholar over there—he's no ordinary man!
"He's the top assassin of the Blood Shadow Tower, Death Centipede!"
The assassin, who had been carefully watching the battle, froze when he heard Feng Mobai's words.
For a moment, he sat dumbfounded by the window, but the next instant, realization struck.
His figure blurred as he vanished, reappearing as a streak of white light speeding away from the battlefield.
"Feng Mobai!! Damn you and your ancestors!!"
Even as he fled, Death Centipede couldn't contain his rage, cursing Feng Mobai at the top of his lungs.
"I came here as a spectator, just to watch the show. And now, thanks to you, I'm the star of the performance!"
If words could kill, Feng Mobai would have been reduced to dust by Death Centipede's fury.
As the Death Centipede fled, Jiang HuanYu shifted his attention.
Calmly and with precision, Jiang HuanYu's gaze locked onto the fleeing assassin.
Though Death Centipede's techniques were remarkable, with illusions and shadows designed to confuse his pursuers, Jiang HuanYu had already marked his presence the moment he crushed the venomous snake earlier.
Jiang HuanYu extended a finger. A beam of light shot forth like a meteor, streaking unerringly toward Death Centipede.
The beam of light closed the distance in the blink of an eye.
Feeling the chilling presence behind him, Death Centipede turned, his face twisting into an expression of utter terror.
"How?! How could he find me so quickly?!"
Before the question could fully form in his mind, the beam struck.
He unleashed all his power in defense, but it was futile. Jiang HuanYu's strength was overwhelming, crushing him completely.
Boom!
The impact obliterated the surrounding terrain, leveling a nearby hill to flat ground.
Death Centipede's body, soul, and everything he was vanished in the explosion.
The Bloodshadow Tower's top assassin, once a figure of terror, was no more. Jiang HuanYu had erased him from existence with a single strike.
Thus ended the tale of Death Centipede, an unfortunate soul who underestimated the wrath of Jiang HuanYu.
