"Ah." Xu Ran heard only a desperate scream, followed immediately by an incredibly weak, almost transparent, purple-black energy shadow fleeing into the distance.
The Rakshasa God had his physical body slain by Xu Ran, leaving only the last wisp of divine thought to escape.
"The Sword of the Three Realms Judgment. A move that can only be executed by merging the essence of Destruction, Life, Goodness, Evil, and Slaughter – the five attributes of the Supreme Gods. Xu Ran's perceptiveness is terrifying, a rarity in this world."
"Moreover, how could the mortal realm have such a terrifying Martial Soul, these five attributes, all of which are Supreme Attributes, now being mastered by one person simultaneously. And he even comprehended such a dreadful move. Is this a sign of heaven-changing events?" In the void, a figure in a devil-patterned robe radiated intense murderous aura, unmistakably a Law Enforcer of the Divine Realm, the Asura God.
At this moment, the Asura God watched Xu Ran in shock, unable to believe his own eyes.
He had noticed something when Xu Ran began to invoke the Chains of Order.
Initially, his interest in Xu Ran was merely out of curiosity.
It was almost inconceivable that such an extraordinary individual existed in the mortal realm, one who could even perceive the laws and essence of the world's operation.
When he saw the Rakshasa God making a move against Xu Ran, he felt some disdain and also pity, as the death of such a talented being would be a loss for this world.
But, unexpectedly, one of the strongest Divine Kings of the Evil Camp in the Divine Realm, an existence in the Godly Realm that gave even him a headache, was slain by a mortal. The physical body was completely shattered; had it not been for the Rakshasa God Power from the Spiritual Center keeping him breathing, he would be completely annihilated by now.
Even now, the Rakshasa God is as good as dead.
"Interesting. I will discuss with the other four Divine Kings before deciding how to deal with you. However, since you are a person from the mortal realm, I suppose you haven't triggered any divine rules." The Asura God wore a slight smile, for some reason feeling a certain fondness for Xu Ran. Particularly, his admiration for Xu Ran's decisiveness and resolution.
The decease of the Rakshasa God, who had always opposed him, was good news. The Rakshasa God had brought trouble to many of his inheritors in the mortal realm; years ago, Tang Chen, whom he had favored, lost himself and fell into evil because of him. The God of Slaughter from Slaughter City, a Twin Martial Souls genius Bi Bidong he had eyed, was also duped into becoming an inheritor of the Rakshasa God.
However, as a Divine being of the Evil Camp, it's much easier to encourage evil than to recommend good. Interference from the Rakshasa God's Thoughts is inevitable unless one's mind is free of distractions, a truly enlightened individual; otherwise, it is near impossible to remain unaffected.
But now things have turned out for the better, with the Rakshasa God being slain by Xu Ran.
As a Divine Being, threatening others while holding a woman hostage was a contemptible way to conduct oneself.
In the context of the Divine Realm, the Rakshasa God would definitely not be justified.
...
"Ding, congratulations to the Host for successfully slaying a god and obtaining the Godslayer reward, ten thousand Skill Points." The System Missy's voice rang, allowing Xu Ran to breathe a sigh of relief.
The Sword of the Three Realms Judgment, fused with the five Supreme Attributes and executed with the Godslayer Sword, indeed had extraordinary power.
With his current strength, he was now capable of reaching the pinnacle of a First-Level God, and aside from beings at God King Level, he could disregard everyone else. Such was his power now.
"Is the Rakshasa God truly dead?" Xu Ran asked. If the Rakshasa God was dead, what would happen to the inheritances of Tang San and Bi Bidong?
"Even though an old Divine Being like the Rakshasa God is dead, sustained by the Rakshasa Attribute from the mortal realm, his God Soul can still live for some time, equivalent to Electros during the Period of Unparalleled Tang Sect. However, Brother Host should be aware that given the Rakshasa God's current state, he won't survive much longer, and Tang San's inheritance progress from the Rakshasa God might accelerate substantially, extremely fast," the System Missy reminded.

"Rakshasa God, since I was able to kill you once, I can kill you a second time," Xu Ran said, not caring about Tang San at all. Tang San was far too weak compared to him. What he was concerned about was the Divine Realm.
After the Rakshasa God was slain by him, only a wisp of the God Soul sustained by the power of the Rakshasa could linger on in a precarious existence. This debt, if the Divine Realm came to settle it with him, would be troublesome.
"Host brother, don't worry. Each of the five great Supreme Gods in the Divine Realm are arrogant and prideful. They would only look down on the Rakshasa God for being slain by you, Host brother. But now, you've caught the attention of the Asura God and will come into the view of those Divine Kings as well. You won't be able to expose yourself freely like before," Miss System explained.
Xu Ran knew that such a huge commotion would naturally be sensed by the Law Enforcer of the Divine World, the Asura God, but the Asura God didn't want to get involved since the Rakshasa God was his adversary.
"Okay," Xu Ran nodded, his consciousness returning, only to feel intense pain.
At some point, unbeknownst to him, Xu Ran had fallen to the ground.
Qian Renxue cradled Xu Ran tightly in her arms, tears streaming down continuously as she cried out his name. She used her hands to press against the wound on his body, her body trembling with fear and anxiety.
"Xu Ran, open your eyes and look at me. If you die, I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life. Nor will I forgive you," Qian Renxue's voice trembled unceasingly.
Seeing Xu Ran slay the Rakshasa God was a moment of immense joy for her, but as he lay there with his eyes closed, seemingly too weak to even open them, it felt like countless knives were cutting through her heart.
In the past, she had always enjoyed holding grudges against Xu Ran, but now, all she wanted was for Xu Ran to wake up.
If only Xu Ran would wake up and glance at her, she would never throw childish tantrums or quarrel with him again.
Huge teardrops fell on Xu Ran's face, like rain.
Having communicated with Miss System for a long time, Xu Ran knew that the Asura God was nearby. Only when the Asura God left did Xu Ran finally open his eyes.
"Xu Ran, you're awake; you're not dead!"
Qian Renxue looked at Xu Ran with delight, a stunningly beautiful smile shining through her tear-streaked face, melting any heart.
Xu Ran looked at Qian Renxue, feeling that everything was worth it.
Qian Renxue was beautiful, truly beautiful, grace incarnate.
Especially when she sobbed, her shoulders heaving gently, a beautiful woman in tears could make anyone's heart tremble.
Now all he wanted was to be with Qian Renxue, to do all the happy things that couples do together.
At that time, he would embrace Qian Renxue from behind, intimately close, doing whatever they wished. Then, he would have the somewhat conservative Qian Renxue wear white stockings, crystal high heels, and tight clothes that revealed her figure.
When Qian Renxue busied herself in the kitchen wearing an apron, he would appear from behind and embrace her, then the two would enjoy a loving breakfast. When Qian Renxue dealt with official documents in Martial Soul Hall, he would also appear from behind to protect her.
Qian Renxue's beautiful legs were also quite nice; when idle, he could rest on those legs and enjoy Qian Renxue's attentive service, just the thought was comforting.
