Chapter 436: So You

The Order to Eradicate Traitors!

Chen Yan's words fell, shaking the heavens and earth once more.

The shouts responding to him rang out, stretching across the entire human realm.

One after another, the character for "Kill" appeared!

Condensing together, binding together!

The world has suffered under the Aristocratic Family Alliance for too long; now that the Divine General has issued the Order to Eradicate Traitors, it is like raising a butcher's knife before the world against the Aristocratic Family Alliance!

He is not yet a Divine General.

No!

He already is.

The Xia Clan needs him to be, the Great Xia needs him to be, and the living people of the entire Qinzhou Prefecture also need him to be.

He is the Divine General!

"Good, good!"

Someone stood upon the earth shouting, tears streaming down their face.

They thought they were forever destined to be treated as a blood bag for the Aristocratic Family Alliance to suck dry; their son had gone missing, and their grandson had gone missing too.

They did not know why.

But in the image Chen Yan released, their grandson had been turned by the Aristocratic Family Alliance into a monster they dared not even recognize.

That was their grandson.

The Aristocratic Family Alliance should have been destroyed long ago!

It is very noisy.

Outside, it is noisy to the extreme, a clamor, a shouting.

Inside the cultivation room, sword shadows float in the air, water droplets splash everywhere; this is a space that belongs to the sword.

Shen Yiwei sits cross-legged within, his face filled with a murderous aura.

However, he immediately begins to knit his brows.

It seems very noisy outside; although he is in the cultivation room, he can almost ignore it, unable to hear anything clearly.

But it is indeed very noisy.

It seems as if the whole world is noisy.

What has happened?

Shen Yiwei's tightly closed eyes tremble slightly, but the next moment, he closes them tightly again.

How could he be distracted?

His cowardice, his incompetence, his being a waste, led him to this point.

How could he be distracted!?

…………

"Damn it!!!"

Outside Xiaoyang City, Chen Sanyuan almost roars, his eyes turning red.

Chen Yan issuing the Order to Eradicate Traitors is practically a death sentence for the Aristocratic Family Alliance.

"Impossible!"

He roars:

"The Xia Clan cannot let him mess around like this; if my Aristocratic Family Alliance is destroyed, the economy of Qinzhou Prefecture will collapse."

His voice is filled with murderous intent.

On the other side of the formation disk, Jiang Yuan wears a cold expression.

Can you have some self-awareness?

The Aristocratic Family Alliance did indeed save the market, but the evil deeds the Aristocratic Family Alliance has done in private are too many; the current Aristocratic Family Alliance is the cancer of the market.

If you are not dealt with, who is?

Yet, at this very moment.

"Chen Yan has issued the Order to Eradicate Traitors; tomorrow, the Qinzhou Prefecture Martial Suppression Division will establish a Merit List. Anyone who kills members of the Aristocratic Family Alliance may be listed and earn merit!

Do not kill the innocent, do not hoard spoils; those who kill the innocent or hoard spoils shall be beheaded!"

The cold, sharp voice rings through the heavens and earth, white light filling the sky.

The speaker is the little nun Zongbo.

In an instant, the voice drowns out the heavens and earth.

High above in the sky, the experts who were still fighting the Military Martial Guards speak up one after another:

"Let's stop fighting, it's all a misunderstanding!"

"I'm going to kill the Aristocratic Family Alliance, hahaha!"

"It's all a misunderstanding!"

They came to Xiaoyang City because of the Thunder-Strike Treasure Land and attacked Chen Yan because of the bounty on the Ji Clan spies.

At this moment, with Chen Yan having achieved the status of Divine General, they are all terrified and want to slip away.

"You all deserve to die!" Jidao Wu roars:

"Rogue cultivators in troubled times, not helping the human race but instead seeking profit from the chaos and harming the Divine General—you should be beheaded!"

His voice falls.

"Behead!"

All around, countless shouts of "Kill" ring out.

These rogue cultivator powerhouses who had attacked all turned pale.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud explosion rang out; Little Siming seized the opportunity and slapped a peak Seventh-Order powerhouse to death with one palm!

Light and flames surged, and the void itself was twisting.

"Those who rebel today, no mercy!"

The Grand Minister of Ceremonies shouted in a low voice, soared into the air in an instant, and charged toward the Blood Sword Saint.

Over there, the Blood Sword Saint was still locked in combat with an Eighth-Order Mad Blade King.

"You're crazy!" The Mad Blade King saw the Grand Minister of Ceremonies charging over and roared:

"I have a family, my son is Seventh-Order, my grandson is Seventh-Order, you want to kill me?

I only attacked to intercept the Blood Sword, I didn't truly want to kill Chen Yan.

I can join the Great Xia!"

The Mad Blade King roared; he was an Eighth-Order!

Eighth-Order, the pinnacle of the world, does the Xia Clan really want to kill him?

If they kill him, the Great Xia will have one less Eighth-Order, one less supreme expert!

"Have some shame, even I am not as shameless as you!"

The Blood Sword Saint shouted in a low voice, his palms exploded outward, sword shadows layered, almost blotting out the sky, and together with the Grand Minister of Ceremonies, they launched a pincer attack to completely annihilate the Mad Blade King.

"Today you aid the Ji Clan, tomorrow you will betray the Great Xia; today you attack a Divine General, tomorrow you will slaughter all living things!"

The Grand Minister of Ceremonies spoke, his hands forming a flower seal, strands of golden light converged, transforming into a golden lotus that swept across all directions, the talisman light vast and mighty, shaking Qinzhou.

Suppress, slaughter!

High above in the sky, Little Siming and Zhang Ting were both attacking, continuously striking down the powerhouses who had come to raid.

"I... I can join the Xia Clan!"

"Don't... don't!"

Boom, boom, boom!!!

Blood rained down from the sky, heads rolled, and the falling blood rain dyed the earth red!

In the eighteen provinces of the Great Xia, the silver cloud screens above every province were slowly dissipating.

But everyone saw this scene.

Xiaoyang City, Qinzhou.

Today, the sky turned red, all blood, all falling remains and heads!

Solemn, grave!

These were all at least Fifth-Order, and there were many Sixth-Order and Seventh-Order ones too.

In ordinary times, they were all powerhouses, all gods in the hearts of the common people.

But, today they were all going to die.

Attracted by the Lightning Strike Treasure Land, because they had attacked Chen Yan, they were all going to die.

Shock, like a violent storm, swept through the bottom of everyone's heart.

Suddenly!

Hum!

A piercing hum rang through the entire human world.

Red!

The high skies of the Great Xia, the Five Clans, and every place overseas had turned blood-colored.

The firmament wept blood, an Eighth-Order had fallen!

Today, the third Eighth-Order had fallen!

Seventh-Order Creation Realm experts are already gods, and Eighth-Order ones are gods above gods.

An Eighth-Order, with one palm strike, could instantly annihilate a great city and kill ten million living beings.

But today, a full three had fallen.

One was a powerhouse from Jizhou, one was this Mad Blade King, and another was King Xia Chen, a king of the Xia Clan.

A full three had died!

Some heard that the star generals shouting for battle were crying out, 'Fight for the Divine General'!

The entire Great Xia was trembling and excited.

A Divine General had been born!

Perhaps, a Divine General who surpassed Lu Xunyang.

No, just looking at the same age group, Chen Yan far surpassed Lu Xunyang.

At this age, Lu Xunyang's aptitude was too poor, his will had not yet manifested, and his reputation was not yet loud.

But Chen Yan, he is not yet strong, yet he is already a Divine General, and he can become even more powerful.

He destroyed the number one of the Fifth-Order while at the Fourth-Order; in many aspects he was number one, and he created unbelievable limits.

Chen Yan!

Today, the two words 'Chen Yan' will ring throughout the entire Great Xia and the entire Five Clans.

He has already ridden the lightning tribulation and fallen into the Lightning Strike Treasure Land, but many people are already waiting for him to emerge.

The people of the Five Clans can only hope he appears a little later.

…………

Outside Xiaoyang City, a trace of fear appeared in Chen Sanyuan's eyes, but immediately after, coldness emerged, and the killing intent was hard to conceal.

He knew that he could no longer kill Chen Yan.

Once Chen Yan emerged into the world, he might already be stronger than him.

But he still had a son.

Invincible Son!

"Exalted One, where are you right now?" Jiang Yuan spoke with difficulty:

"You have to take me with you; I cannot stay in Qin Province anymore!"

Jiang Yuan's voice sounded very terrified; it was clear he could not complete the task Chen Sanyuan had entrusted to him.

Chen Sanyuan's eyes shifted.

Jiang Yuan was very mediocre, but he knew how to handle things.

"I am on the east side of Yixian City; come find me quickly."

"Understood!"

Jiang Yuan cut the communication.

Wushi City.

Chen Changyuan's expression was gloomy to the extreme:

"Why did I not just annihilate him back then!"

He let out a low roar, his fists clenched tight.

He had never erupted with such rage as he did now.

He regretted it.

Had he known, he should have withstood the suppression of the Chen Clan's main lineage to destroy Chen Yan.

Endless killing intent surged in Chen Changyuan's eyes.

"How long until he can come out?"

He knew that Chen Yan had not yet passed the lightning tribulation, so Chen Yan's combat power was insufficient.

To come out, his own combat power had to meet the requirements.

"Perhaps ten years?" A light, airy woman's voice sounded.

The speaker was a tall woman wearing a mask.

"Do not use the mindset of you Ancient Divine Beasts to think about him!"

Chen Changyuan barked coldly.

"What are you worried about? He still has a Tier 7 Malice Crystal inside his body; I can detonate that Malice Crystal at any time."

The woman spoke.

Chen Changyuan narrowed his eyes, then immediately tapped the communication device:

"Chen Nankun, immediately assemble the entire clan to migrate and head to the border of Tie Province!"

The first thing Chen Changyuan had to do now was to relocate the clan.

Qin Province could no longer be stayed in.

Because of Chen Yan, because of this junior he had failed to kill back then.

Thinking of this, killing intent permeated Chen Changyuan's eyes.

Yet, in the next moment, a cold man's voice came from within the communication array disk:

"Chen Changyuan, where are you?

Return to Luo City, and I will put in a good word for you with the Xia Clan."

Crack!

Chen Changyuan crushed the communication array disk in his hand, his gaze becoming incomparably sharp.

The one speaking was not one of his Luo Chen people.

It was the Chief of the Luo City Martial Suppression Division.

He was only a Tier 6; Chen Changyuan could easily annihilate him.

But...

"Chen Yan!"

Chen Changyuan roared; the Luo Chen clan had been suppressed!

Killing intent, heaven-shaking killing intent, was churning in the deepest part of Chen Changyuan's soul.

He tapped the communication array disk again:

"Father, come to Wushi City immediately."

From the other side of the communication array disk came Chen Sanyuan's voice:

"I am still waiting for Jiang Yuan."

"Jiang Yuan?" Chen Changyuan narrowed his eyes:

"Stop waiting; a Jiang Yuan is not important. The perception of an Eighth Tier is extremely powerful; even if you are not in Xiaoyang, you might still be detected..."

Chen Changyuan was in the middle of speaking.

Boom!!!

On the other side of the communication array disk, a terrifying explosion suddenly sounded.

"Blood Sword Saint!" Chen Sanyuan's pupils shrank, and he roared:

"How did you get here? You...!"

Chen Changyuan's body trembled; he gripped the communication array disk tightly.

Boom, boom, boom!!!

On the other side of the communication array disc, explosive sounds and the noise of wind being torn apart rang out.

One could imagine that Chen Sanyuan was fleeing for his life at this very moment.

"Impossible, it's impossible, why was I discovered?"

Chen Sanyuan's tone was anxious to the extreme at this moment.

"This isn't right, this isn't right."

"Blood Sword Saint, can you spare my life? I have treasures!"

"Hahahaha, if I kill you, your corpse will be the treasure!"

"Don't, ah!!!"

"Chen Changyuan, Chen Changyuan, you must avenge me!"

Chen Sanyuan's voice was shrill to the extreme; Chen Changyuan's complexion grew increasingly livid, and his body grew increasingly rigid.

"The one who kills me, Blood Sword... no!"

Chen Sanyuan roared with all his might:

"It's Chen Yan, everything is because of Chen Yan, my son, you must destroy Chen..."

Boom!

A loud noise erupted from the other side of the communication array disc.

It sounded like the noise of a head being blown apart.

Chen Changyuan stood stiffly, the veins on his forehead bulging like twisted earthworms.

"Invincible Child?" From within the communication array disc, the Blood Sword Saint's faint laughter came through:

"So you're the one they call Invincible Child.

Come, come and kill me, I am in Yixian City, and your father's corpse is hanging on the highest rooftop in Yixian City.

Come find me!"

Crack!!!

The communication array disc was crushed directly by Chen Changyuan, and he just stood there quietly.

To the side, the masked woman watched the other person quietly:

"I don't understand, I don't understand the emotions of you humans.

In my view, all living things in the world are merely pseudo-living beings and true living beings.

Emotions are something only pseudo-living beings possess."

Chen Changyuan's expression was somber as he glanced at the masked woman:

"Meng, do you think I would be very angry?"

Chen Changyuan spoke quietly:

"I am indeed angry; I thought I had long since let go of everything, focusing only on true power.

But the one who just died was my master, my father; he said that I was destined to be the pinnacle of the world.

It was Chen Yan who harmed him, and it was my negligence and hesitation that harmed him.

Am I angry?"

He murmured quietly:

"It was my excessive hesitation; clearly, there was a Tier 7 Malice Crystal inside Chen Yan's body, yet in order to strive for maximum lethality, I let this Malice Crystal slowly leak malice to erase Chen Yan's consciousness.

I was wrong."

He shook his head, his eyes calm, but within that calmness hid a murderous intent more ferocious than before:

"I was wrong."

He said indifferently:

"But since I have lost everything, I will no longer have any weaknesses; I have become the person I, Chen Changyuan, most wanted to be."

The masked woman looked at Chen Changyuan:

"Are we going to our Ancient God Island, or to Ji Province?"

"Ji Province." Chen Changyuan said quietly:

"The Ji Lord has already promised me that during the Five Clans Conflict, I will advance to Tier 7."

Chen Changyuan had not yet advanced to Tier 7.

He had originally intended to advance in Wushi City.

But it was ruined by Chen Yan; Chen Yan might not even know that he had ruined Chen Changyuan's plans of many years.

The Dream Ancient God Beast was slashed into three parts by Lu Xunyang back in the day.

One part was given to Shen Yiwei, one part was in the third layer of the Dream Abyss in the College Entrance Exam Secret Realm, and one part was in Wushi City.

Shen Yiwei's Dream Ancient God Beast was stolen by Chen Changyuan and later given to the Gong family to cultivate.

On the day Bing Yi destroyed the Gong family, the Dream Ancient God Beast escaped in advance, deceiving Gong Wu into using everything he had to block Bing Yi.

Before the other party died, he said that line, 'Everything is a dream,' knowing he had been deceived, but he was already dead, and the truth would not be known by outsiders.

One-third of the Dream Ancient God Beast came to Chen Changyuan's side.

Inside the College Entrance Exam Secret Realm, Chen Changyuan's soul-split Yu Changsheng entered the third layer of the Dream Abyss; his initial purpose was to find the Dream Ancient God Beast.

He found it, which was why he was able to leave the Dream Abyss with extreme ease.

But Chen Changyuan knew too well what kind of person he would be, knowing that Yu Changsheng would only act for himself in the end.

So he let the Dream Ancient God Beast by his side leave a piece of malicious information inside Yu Changsheng's body.

It was precisely this malicious information that made the Dream Ancient God Beast in the Dream Abyss understand and deceive Yu Changsheng.

It made Yu Changsheng forget his purpose, thinking that he had only gone to the Dream Abyss to search for the Fei Yi.

It was the Fei Yi that took him away from the Dream Abyss.

At the very last moment of Yu Changsheng's death, he also came to an understanding, and he shouted that one sentence, "Everything is a dream," to Chen Yan once again.
