254. Chapter 254: Slaying the God King

The Five Great God Kings, upon hearing the Golden Dragon King's words, instantly became excited.

They were troubled by the formidable strength of Qianxunji and the Golden Dragon King joining forces, but now the Golden Dragon King actually wanted to lay his hands on Qianxunji's principal wife and most beloved daughter.

Given their understanding of Qianxunji's protective bias, they would certainly not agree, and might even come to blows with the Golden Dragon King.

This way, they could even wait for the Golden Dragon King and Qianxunji to both suffer losses, then step in to kill the victor—simple and easy.

Finding this place, the Evil God King immediately added fuel to the fire and said:

Qianxunji, this Golden Dragon King actually wants your wife and daughter; if you're a man, kill him right away.

Otherwise, you're just a weakling, and everyone in the world will look down on you.

Having said that, the God of Destruction anxiously looked at Qianxunji, hoping he would be provoked and then suffer mutual injury with the Golden Dragon King.

Qianxunji glanced at the God King of Destruction and said:

This Golden Dragon King dares to covet my wife and daughter; I must indeed kill him.

As you wish, I will first kill the Golden Dragon King, then settle accounts with you.

Hearing this, the God King of Destruction's face filled with uncontainable excitement, and he continued:

Qianxunji, well done; I, the God King of Destruction, most respect a man like you—quickly kill the Golden Dragon King.

Qianxunji did not answer; instead, his sharp gaze fell on the floating Golden Dragon King in the air, and he said with killing intent:

Will you end yourself, or shall I send you on your way?

Hearing this, the Golden Dragon King panicked completely; he never expected that Qianxunji, a God King–level powerhouse, would be so foolish.

To risk everything for a wife and daughter, he would actually move against him while surrounded by powerful enemies.

After all, those who reach the God King realm are all ruthless and vicious, and none have become God King without enduring countless hardships.

Therefore, almost every God King–level powerhouse can sacrifice everything for himself, even his closest kin.

Yet Qianxunji before us, for the sake of his principal wife and daughter, is locked in a death feud—utter foolishness, beyond foolish.

However, even if the Golden Dragon King thinks Qianxunji foolish, he himself is now panicking.

Because he knows that if he fights Qianxunji, regardless of whether he can win, even if he ultimately triumphs, facing the Five Great God Kings leaves only a dead end.

The Golden Dragon King can abandon anyone, but he values his own life greatly; seeing Qianxunji about to kill him, he panicked and hastily lowered his stance, saying:

"Qian... Qian Brother, I was wrong just now; will you forgive me?"

"Unforgivable." Qianxunji's icy voice rang out.

Seeing Qianxunji unmoved, the Golden Dragon King immediately begged for mercy:

"Qian Brother, if you kill me, soon you will be slain by the Five Great God Kings, and then your wife and children will die at their hands."

"So please stay calm, don't act on impulse!"

Qianxunji pointed the Xuanyuan Sword at the Golden Dragon King and said coldly:

"No need for more words; let you make the first move!"

Seeing Qianxunji unmoved, the Golden Dragon King knew the opponent had resolved to kill him, so he stopped begging; his hundred‑zhang dragon body burst forth with golden divine power, the aura of a God King–level powerhouse sweeping the entire plaza, and he shouted sternly:

"Qianxunji, since you are obstinate and insensible, then die!"

No sooner had his words fallen than golden light blazed from the Golden Dragon King's dragon body, and with an unstoppable momentum he charged at Qianxunji.

"Excellent!" the Five Great God Kings exclaimed, their faces full of excitement. But the excitement on their faces instantly stiffened, replaced by bewilderment.

Because they saw that the Golden Dragon King, who had just been surging with mighty momentum toward Qianxunji, suddenly flicked his dragon tail and swiftly turned to flee into the distance.

Such speed left even the Five Great God Kings feeling inadequate.

Watching the Golden Dragon King flee swiftly, Qianxunji's light voice sounded:

"Hehe, interesting!"

"But can you escape?"

The next moment, Qianxunji's left hand made a grasping motion toward the distant Golden Dragon King.

The next moment, a heaven‑reaching giant hand appeared instantly, enveloping the Golden Dragon King, then slowly closed.

"Hiss… what… what is this?"

The Golden Dragon King, seeing the suddenly appearing heaven‑reaching giant hand, sucked in a cold breath.

Because he discovered that even if he tried to burst out between the giant hand's fingers, a black divine power appeared on the hand, blocking him directly and preventing him from extending his palm.

And when the Golden Dragon King turned his head, he saw Qianxunji slowly clenching his large hand; clearly, the heaven‑reaching giant hand before him was the manifestation of Qianxunji's hand.

At this moment, the Golden Dragon King knew Qianxunji's strength far surpassed his own; otherwise, why would a mere grasp of his hand trap him, unable to escape?

Moreover, watching the heaven‑reaching giant hand slowly tighten, the Golden Dragon King felt an intense sense of death approaching; he knew that once the hand clenched, he would be crushed to bits, dead beyond death.

Thinking of this, the Golden Dragon King hurriedly dropped to the ground before Qianxunji, his four dragon claws kneeling, trembling with fear as he begged for mercy:

"Qianxunji, I was wrong; please let me go."

"As long as you release me, in this life I am willing to serve you as an ox or horse, sparing no effort; even I can guard your gate for you."

However, facing the Golden Dragon King's plea, Qianxunji's expression did not change; he merely continued to slowly close his hand.

Actually, Qianxunji could have crushed him instantly, but since the Golden Dragon King dared to harbor designs on Gu Yue Na and Qianxunji, he decided to let the Golden Dragon King die in fear.

Qianxunji's principle is that if someone insults him with a single remark, perhaps he would, in his generosity, merely teach them a lesson and spare their lives.

But anyone who dares to set their sights on his women and children meets only one end… death!

In the air, the heaven‑reaching giant hand continued to tighten, almost fully closed, while the Golden Dragon King inside emitted wave after wave of agonized dragon roars, accompanied by crackling sounds like shattering steel bones.

These bone‑shattering cracks rang out in succession, clearly indicating that the Golden Dragon King's entire hard dragon body was being pulverized.

"Ow… ow… ow…"

The Golden Dragon King issued waves of painful cries, but as the heaven‑reaching giant hand gripped tighter, his painful cries abruptly ceased.

Then, Qianxunji relaxed his hand, and the heaven‑reaching giant hand pointing at the air also vanished instantly.

In the air, a heap of golden powder fell from above—it was the dragon's body crushed by the Golden Dragon King, already pulverized by Qianxunji into dust, turning into flying ash.

Hiss!

Title saw this scene, and also directly inhaled a breath of cold air.

Because, from the scene just now where the Golden Dragon King resisted the giant hand reaching the heavens, he could see that the Golden Dragon King had already recovered to the strength of a God King.

Although it had not recovered to the realm of the former Dragon God, it was sufficient to match either an evil God King or a benevolent God King.

And such a powerful Golden Dragon King, Qianxunji merely grabbed it casually and directly crushed it into powder, not even able to escape.
