Chapter 208: I'll Reward You With a Dragon Robe!

Chapter 208: I'll Reward You With a Dragon Robe!

Everything boiled down to two focal points that said it all! The mystery box was opened! The result, revealed!

Yun Xiao, all alone and without the aid of a billion ancestral spirits, slaughtered two thousand talents from the Demon Continent! Not only did he kill, but he also absorbed the essence of their demon bones to forge a Sword Ring!

This was the most nightmarish scenario the demons could imagine, and it had just become a reality... As this scene unfolded, millions of enraged demons crowded together, their eyes nearly splitting open, blood gushing from their gaze.

Atop the Ascension Gate, the faces of the Violet Emperor and Sword Saint Yu Qian turned a deep shade of purple, their pupils trembling wildly, hands unconsciously crushing the metal railing in front of them!

The two exchanged a glance, faces twisted, unable to utter a single word! They felt a chilling draft on their backs!

"Although it's not our talents who died..." Sword Saint Yu Qian's mind went blank. Mid-sentence, he suddenly remembered something, his body trembling, his voice hoarse: "Your Majesty, didn't the Seventh Princess go in there?"

No sooner had he spoken, both Sword Saint Yu Qian and the Violet Emperor spotted a small, headless corpse in a corner of the pile of mud!

The Seventh Princess, being human, had not been turned into a Sword Ring!

Yun Xiao had burned the body of the young man that Ghost Marriage possessed, but he left hers behind! There she lay, alone and desolate! This was his greatest insult to the false demons! Even in death, they were shamed!

The Violet Emperor had withstood the killing of his five children! But when the greatest hope of his Violet Sky Immortal Empire, the future of the entire nation, lay dead before him, his heart utterly shattered, blood furiously spurting!

The mighty Violet Emperor, in a moment, had blood-red eyes! His reaction showed the extent of the inner turmoil that was tearing apart the three Demon Emperors right now as well!

This was a fatal blow! This moment forged a cruel truth. Even if the Demon Continent won today, they would lose their future! At the very least, they had lost their most promising generation! Such a devastating blow was like a thousand swords piercing the heart of every demon!

In an instant, the eyes of everyone in the Demon Continent and the Violet Sky Immortal Empire, human and demon alike, turned blood-red, their breathing heavy!

Across from them, the Nine Heavens Immortal Army soldiers had long been gripping their magic weapons.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, the Heavenly Realm cultivators, who had worried for an hour, felt a wave of excitement wash over them. Their eyes ablaze, they stared intently at Yun Xiao, erupting in deafening cheers.

"Yun Xiao! Yun Xiao! Yun Xiao!" The chants rolled like a tsunami through the Heavenly Realm, reaching even outside to the Divine Continent, shaking the very heavens!

Everyone had gone mad! Everyone understood the significance of this moment!Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

For countless years, oppressed by the Demon Continent, even the recent tragic deaths of the Azure Leaf faction couldn't quell the hatred for the demons. Now, it was avenged! Kill the dog, and then leave its master childless!

In two consecutive battles, Yun Xiao's fame in the Divine Continent had almost surpassed that of the Divine Dawn Empress, who had slain Eternal Joy! How did he do it? For the common people of the human race, that no longer mattered! What mattered was a resounding victory! A convincing triumph within the rules!

This event, once spread, would surely ignite the fighting spirit of the entire Divine Continent, allowing all the oppressed humans to rise, weapons in hand, no longer afraid!

This was the greatest significance of Yun Xiao's life-or-death battle!

There were far too many in the human race, crushed in spirit, too afraid to fight! The more they feared, the more the enemy would take advantage!

Eternal Joy! The Sword Dao Monument! The War of Immortals! These three great victories solidified the unyielding spirit of the Divine Continent's human race!

Yun Xiao raised his sword to the sky, embodying all of humanity's hopes.

Back on the highest seat of the Ascension Platform, the Divine Dawn Empress in her dragon robes finally relaxed. She let out a long sigh, her eyes reddening slightly. After the victory with the Sword Dao Monument, she hadn't wanted Yun Xiao to take risks, but he had persuaded her.

Despite her calm facade, she was far from collected inside, even a bit panicky... Thankfully, the outcome was just as she had hoped! If not for the many eyes watching, she would have embraced him fiercely right then and there!

"He has done everything. Now, it's my turn," the Divine Dawn Empress muttered. With the Azure Leaf faction gone, the Violet Sky Immortal Empire and the Demon Continent suffered yet another generational setback!

How could they just let this be? This turmoil was far from over; it was only going to escalate!

"What's he going to do now?"

In contrast, the demons across could only seethe with rage!

"Strict punishment?" the Gu Emperor said coldly. He was ranked second in the whole of the Demon Continent and the oldest among them. Despite his heart bleeding, knew well that mourning was futile and revenge was the key.

"Then, I request Divine Dawn, as per the arrangement an hour ago, to publicly cripple Yun Xiao!" the Gu Emperor said ominously.

"Cripple him!" Millions of demons glared at Yun Xiao.

The so-called fair death in battle meant acting according to pre-set rules. Yun Xiao had killed Tian Lu, breaking the friendship with the demons, and so, being crippled also fell within the rules.

The Forbidden Fate Demon Emperor's army had yet to arrive, and the Divine Dawn Empress hadn't declared war. So, before a complete falling out, the rules still mattered.

However, those from the Demon Continent didn't actually believe the Divine Dawn Empress would publicly cripple Yun Xiao.

At this point, there was no difference between that and a complete fallout.

As expected, the Divine Dawn Empress looked at Yun Xiao helplessly, saying sorrowfully, "I never imagined that the one to become humanity's top Immortal would be such a defiant brat! As per my promise, I will hold a wedding with him today at noon! To ensure he survives the ceremony, I've decided to postpone his punishment until after the vows, and I ask for the understanding of all guests!"

After saying this, she added, "Rest assured, Emperors! His stubbornness deserves punishment, and I'm just following the rules. After the vows, I will personally cripple him, and you may witness it yourselves!"

The reaction of the three Demon Emperors was as expected. They looked coldly at the Divine Dawn Empress and the beings of the Heavenly Realm behind her! Tens of millions of people! Each one capable of forming an army!

This was the Heavenly Realm's most fierce moment!

The teeth of the Eclipse Demon Emperor sunk into the flesh of his lips, drawing blood!

"I propose, on the day we conquer the Heavenly Realm, to transform the souls and flesh of these tens of millions here into a Blood Soul Pillar, to replace the Sword Dao Monument and stand at the gates of the Heavenly Realm for ten thousand years. What do you think?" He turned his head, speaking in a low voice to the Gu Emperor and Red Lotus.

"It's far from enough," Red Lotus replied, her voice chillingly cold. Her heart was shattered, leaving only endless slaughter in her thoughts.

"Only a revenge a thousandfold can serve as a blood sacrifice for our children..." the Gu Emperor said gravely.

By this point, the three of them had no desire to utter any more meaningless words here.

Demons preferred to let actions speak.

At that moment, the Divine Dawn Empress announced, "The remnants of the Azure Leaf faction's treason have been largely eradicated. The gates of the Heavenly Realm are now reopened."

Meaning, anyone who wanted to leave could do so at any time!

After speaking, the Divine Dawn Empress suddenly grabbed Yun Xiao's collar, her brows slightly raised.

"What are you doing?" Yun Xiao whispered.

"Getting married again!" the Divine Dawn Empress pouted nonchalantly. "Considering your decent performance, I'll reward you with a dragon robe!"

Yun Xiao immediately brightened up.

She intended to harness the momentum of the human race's rising confidence to fully assimilate the fruits of victory from this First War of Immortals!

But just then, the Violet Emperor and Sword Saint Yu Qian, accompanied by a host of the Violet Sky Immortal Empire's powerhouses, landed between the Heavenly Realm's people and the demons.

The Violet Emperor glanced at the Divine Dawn Empress and the three Demon Emperors and said ominously, "Regarding this War of Immortals and the Black Box Battle, there are still many suspicions. We believe that the Divine Dawn Immortal Empire must provide explanations to both the Divine and Demon Continents!"
