Chapter 1290

A thick purple robe covered the body, making it impossible for Ximen Wudi to discern the other's appearance at all.

However, after he appeared, he showed no sign of stopping, merely speaking slowly.

"Mo Xiaobei, you killed my Great Xia Kingdom's king—even if you flee to the ends of the earth, this seat will have you pay with blood for blood!"

The low voice caused Ximen Wudi's brow to furrow involuntarily.

He hadn't expected that this Great Xia's National Preceptor would actually be a peak Great Luo Jinxian level powerhouse.

But so what if he was a Great Luo Jinxian.

"Hmph, even if I flee beyond the heavens today, you'll still have to come after me!"

Ximen Wudi said disdainfully, opening his mouth to speak.

Then, he walked toward the top of the city wall.

At the same time, the voice of the Great Xia National Preceptor rang out once more.

"How bold—a mere Great Sage Seventh Layer ant dares to provoke this seat.

Today, I'll let you know what true power means!"

The moment the other's voice fell, boundless sword light was flung across the sky.

Every single beam was incomparably sharp, capable even of splitting the entire firmament.

This made Ximen Wudi's pupils contract involuntarily.

However, at this moment he could not afford to worry about too many things.

"Roar!"

Letting out an angry roar, he charged forward to meet it.

Dragon pythons coiled around his body, ferocious beyond compare.

A punch blasted out.

The blazing fist-gang carved a dazzling arc through the air.

It crashed toward those sword gleams.

"Bang!"

Two streams of energy collided together.

In an instant, boundless ripples surged up.

Yet a solemn look flashed in the eyes of that Great Xia National Preceptor.

Although the other's cultivation was only Great Sage Seventh Layer, half a measure weaker than his own.

This nevertheless left him utterly astonished.

After all, this was cultivation at the Great Sage realm.

Throughout all of Great Xia, there were only a handful.

Yet the other, so young, already possessed such strength—this filled his heart with indescribable shock.

If left to develop unchecked, once he entered Great Luo Jinxian, likely the entire continent would have no equal.

However, matters had already reached such a point that he could not afford the slightest hesitation.

"Boom—!"

A palm struck out.

In an instant, dark clouds blanketed the sky.

Rolling black mist billowed forth.

This made Ximen Wudi furrow his brow involuntarily.

Because within that black mist lurked toxins of extremely strong corrosive power.

But how could such a thing trouble him.

His figure flickered, dodging the black mist while continuing to charge forward.

The Chaos Bell in his hand shot out in an instant, radiating endless might.

"Bang!"

A violent explosion rang out.

That Great Xia National Preceptor was ultimately smashed to the ground.

An expression of disbelief surfaced in his eyes.

He had roamed the heavens for hundreds of millions of years, never once suffering defeat—now to be wounded by a single move was simply impossible to accept.

And Ximen Wudi, naturally, would not let slip such an opportunity.

A finger stabbed out, and in an instant that Great Xia National Preceptor was utterly suppressed and slain on the spot.

"Roar!"

Just as Ximen Wudi was preparing to leave.

Another roar rang out by his ear.

It was the sound of the dragon python.

Immediately after, he felt an incomprehensibly massive claw tear through space and appear above him.

Its vast, surging aura caused the surrounding space to shatter.

Clearly the owner of that giant claw intended to press the advantage and capture Ximen Wudi in one strike.

"Seeking death!"

Yet upon seeing such a scene, the other's attack only grew increasingly violent in his heart.

The Emperor Sword in his hand was swung out in an instant.

The brilliant sword-light streaked across the sky.

Slashing viciously toward that giant claw.

"Boom!"

A violent explosion rang out.

The instant that giant claw collided with the sword-light,

it shattered into fragments.

At the same time, a withered corpse tumbled to the ground.

Yet after the fall of the Great Xia State Preceptor,

those alien powerhouses were slaughtered to the last by the Great Zhou soldiers.

Afterwards, all the captives were thrown up onto the city wall.

The Great Xia soldiers by now had long been scared out of their wits.

They had never imagined Ximen Wudi's strength would be terrifying to such a degree.

The Great Xia State Preceptor was, moreover, the very pinnacle expert of Great Xia.

Even in this Tiannan Star Domain, he could be counted as a figure of note—yet he was slain by the other party with ease.

How could any ordinary Zong Sect force possibly compare to such combat power?

Thinking of this, the crowd could not even muster the thought of resistance.

Because they knew that, so long as Ximen Wudi was willing, he could annihilate all of Great Xia in an instant.

Yet Ximen Wudi at this moment paid no heed to these surrendering soldiers, heading straight for the depths of the Great Xia imperial court.

He had to awaken that Supreme Ancestor, only then could the safety of Great Zhou be assured.

Only, upon entering the imperial palace, he discovered the Great Xia State Preceptor collapsed on the bed, already on his last breath.

His face was an ashen blue.

Not only he—even the slumbering Supreme Ancestor was stunned by this sight.

"Father, what has happened to you!"

The Supreme Ancestor spoke anxiously, his eyes reddening, unable to hold back tears.

"Don't worry, your father's strength is overwhelmingly powerful—he'll be fine!"
