"Hahahaha, the Celestial Empire is simply a joke!"
Seeing this scene, the people on the ship laughed out loud.
That Senior Brother's face was filled with pride. It was like when he was a child, trampling on kittens and puppies.
"Stop!"
The young man seemed to be dissatisfied with the current situation. When he saw another group of patrolling soldiers arrive, he licked the blood on his sword and revealed a ferocious expression.
However, at this moment, a loud roar sounded.
The Emperor of the Celestial Empire, Wu Xiang, who represented the Celestial Thearch, had finally appeared.
This place was not close to the Divine Capital. He was able to arrive in time because he had been paying attention to the situation in the Divine Capital.
"Who are you?"
The young man asked.
"The Emperor of the Celestial Empire, under the Celestial Thearch. I manage the affairs of the Celestial Empire."
Wu Xiang replied.
"Second Grotto-Heaven Realm cultivation? Not bad, but unfortunately, you're no match for me! "
The young man said coldly, "Since you're here, I might as well give Ling Xiao a better gift."
After saying that, he turned the tip of his sword from the patrolling soldiers to Wu Xiang.
The sword pierced through the air.
Wu Xiang spat out blood and flew back.
The young man wanted to chase after him, but at this moment, a terrifying pressure came from the Divine Capital.
"Young man, don't be so ruthless. Do you really want me to make a move?"
A Yin Yang Realm expert?
The young man's expression was a little ugly. He gritted his teeth and looked at Wu Xiang. "What Emperor of the Celestial Empire? You're not even worth mentioning. Consider yourself lucky today. Don't let me see you again."
After saying that, he seemed to be still angry. He stabbed two more times at Ling Xiao's statue, and the statue instantly shattered.
At this moment, he flew through the air. The luxurious cruise ship also turned around and sailed in another direction.
"Remember my name — Sword Demon!"
What an arrogant name!
The Sword Demon. Even if his swordsmanship had reached Ling Xiao's level, he would not dare to name himself with a sword. However, this person actually dared to name himself "Sword Demon".
He was either stupid or too arrogant.
Looking at the huge ship in the distance, the people's hearts trembled.
Perhaps they were really frogs in a well?
Perhaps their Celestial Thearch was not as powerful as they thought?
A random young man could provoke the Celestial Empire?
They hung their heads, losing their former pride and becoming fearful and uneasy.
That young man called Sword Demon really gave them a heavy blow. The Emperor Wu Xiang, whom they once worshipped, was actually beaten back with a single sword strike.
At the same time, Wu Xiang, Qin Huo, and the other guards of the Divine Capital who had rushed over after hearing the news were filled with hatred.
The shattered statues and hundreds of corpses, this was not only an insult to the Heavenly Empire, but also a punishment to them.
They were certain that they had never crossed paths with this young man called Sword Demon. They had never even heard Sky Emperor Ling Xiao mention this person.
There was no grudge between them. They were just here to provoke and humiliate him.
A day later, the bloodstains on the pier had been washed away, but the fear and anger in the hearts of the people could not be erased.
Ling Xiao came back.
He saw the hundreds of corpses that had yet to be buried.
Some were patrolling soldiers, and some were civilians.
The oldest was already over a hundred years old, while the youngest was only two or three years old.
He died just like that, for no reason at all.
His expression was extremely unpleasant, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
A terrifying murderous aura soared into the sky and filled the entire Divine Capital.
Everyone could feel the Sky Emperor's anger.
"Sword Demon, you killed my people. I swear to destroy your sect!"
Such a voice echoed in the Divine Capital.
The civilians who heard it could not help but shed tears of excitement.
As long as the Sky Emperor was not afraid, they would not be afraid. It seemed that their previous worries were unnecessary.
Of course, expressing his stance was one thing, but the details still had to be handled properly.
Ling Xiao personally went to comfort the families of those who had passed away and gave them compensation.
The sentence he said the most was, "Your blood will not be shed in vain. Whoever offends the Heavenly Empire will have to pay a price ten times or a hundred times. Just you wait, I will bring back the head of that Sword Demon."
After returning to the Emperor Residence, Ling Xiao also asked Wu Xiang and the others if they knew Sword Demon. The answer he received was that they did not know.
This made Ling Xiao even angrier.
If Sword Demon was here for revenge, although he was angry, he could still understand. After all, he was that kind of person.
However, there was no enmity, and he did not even know who Sword Demon was.
The other party did this purely to show off his strength and tyranny. It was fine if he killed patrolling soldiers, but he did not even let off unarmed civilians.
This method was simply vicious to the extreme.
Perhaps in the eyes of this person, the lives of the people of the Heavenly Empire were nothing but grass. They were even inferior to ants. There should not be any problems if he wanted to kill them.
If this person was not killed, not only would Ling Xiao lose all his prestige, but the hatred in his heart would also be difficult to dispel.
He had already decided that he would definitely go to the Divine Phoenix Capital. The Dragon Phoenix Selection would be held there, and this person would definitely appear there.
Ever since the birth of the Mountain River Martial Soul, geniuses had appeared in large numbers, and many hidden geniuses would rush there one after another.
He definitely had to go to the Dragon Phoenix Selection. This newly established country needed prestige and glory.
"Let's talk about something happy."
Ling Xiao let out a long breath and pointed to Hua Fuguang and Hua Liuying, who were standing beside him, and said, "Senior Brother Wu Xiang, and all the officials, these two are the famous captains of the Twin Flowers Pirates in the sea region of the City of Sin. In the future, they will be the commanders of the Heavenly Empire's navy. Senior Brother, you will arrange their specific duties. After all, you are more familiar with the specific matters than I am."
Seeing this pair of beautiful sisters, all the officials were stunned.
Hua Fuguang and Hua Liuying were full of wild beauty. At first glance, they looked like two fierce wild horses.
They were different from the holy, elegant, and noble Moon Maiden.
They were also different from Cold Plum's coldness, coldness, and danger.
They were also different from Scorpion Li's charm.
Although they were both women who followed the Heavenly Emperor, these two had their own unique personalities.
Of course, beauty was one thing. In the Mystic World, strength was the key.
Hua Fuguang was a Grotto-Heaven Realm expert. Although Hua Liuying was not as strong as her, she was also a half-step Grotto-Heaven Realm martial artist.
These two women were not weak either.
The people couldn't help but sigh. Their Heavenly Emperor was really powerful. Every time he brought back a woman from outside, not only was she beautiful, but also had strength that made many men blush with shame.
The officials couldn't help but look at Ling Xiao again.
The aura that their Heavenly Emperor exuded was obviously different. It was stronger than before, but that domineering and arrogant aura was still there.
It seemed that although the trip to the City of Sin was dangerous, they had gained a lot.
"Alright, the rest of you can disperse. Everyone has their own duties. Don't let sadness suppress our nerves. We have to turn pain into strength!"
Ling Xiao waved his hand and said, "Wu Xiang, Ji Ning, Scorpion Li, Qin Huo, Li Ruguang, Zhang Yufei, Zhuge Ming, Meng Tong, Xin, Hua Fuguang, and Hua Liuying. Generals, stay back. I have important arrangements."
