Chaos Heavenly Emperor Art

The next day.

In front of the main residence of the Longze family.

"The final reckoning has begun!"

Long Ze Liyue was still wearing an ice-blue dress, her silver-purple eyes fixed on the tightly closed door in front of her, which was filled with liquid light energy, and behind the door, the Mirror Heart Hall, which symbolized the highest power of the family!

With Ling Feng's assistance, in just one month, she had basically taken back all of the Longze family's assets.

She wanted to make these people who had once driven her away slowly savor the taste of despair.

At this moment, the former family mansion is right before my eyes.

She could almost sense that the part of her original power that had been sealed away was beginning to stir.

It seems like they're welcoming her triumphant return!
One step behind her, Ling Feng followed closely like a silent shadow.

Beneath the mask covering his face, a hint of anticipation flickered.

Even if Ryuzawa Shuichi, the seventh seat of the Twelve Gods, is always hiding his tracks, he should show up today, right?

Although they defeated Michael, the sixth-seat God of War, last time, that birdman still managed to escape.

He won't make the same mistake twice this time.

"Long Ze Liyue! How dare you force your way into the main residence! You deserve to die!"

In an instant, an aged voice transformed into a roar filled with thunderous fury, piercing through the energy barrier that shrouded the family mansion and exploding in the sky above the plaza!
The door to the Mirror Heart Hall, brimming with light energy, suddenly swung open!

The First Elder, Long Ze Chongming, with his hair and beard standing on end, his emaciated body wrapped in a shimmering crystal energy robe, held a scepter and stared intently at Long Ze Liyue.

Behind him, dozens of elders and retainers, whose auras were at least at the peak of the Judgment level, filed out one after another, each with a face full of shock, anger and killing intent!
Further behind, hundreds of private soldiers of the Longze family, clad in the family's mithril armor, surged forth with murderous intent like a torrent of steel!

"It's quite a large-scale operation."

Long Ze Liyue smiled coldly and turned to look at Ling Feng, "Thank you for your trouble, my Elder Long Fei."

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled, then stepped forward.

In an instant, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from him.

He simply stood there casually, yet he was like an invisible boundary marker, completely separating the terrifying pressure emanating from the family elders in front of him from the dark mass of elite private soldiers of the Longze family gathered in the square in front of him!
"Activate the 'Light Dust Annihilation Array'! Capture this traitor!"

Long Ze Chongming's eyelids twitched suddenly, and he slammed his scepter heavily on the ground!

hum! ——

Countless blinding streaks of light instantly illuminated the plaza!

The chains of light dust that were originally wandering within the energy barrier suddenly changed direction like a swarm of sharks smelling blood, transforming into billions of blazing white light arrows that tore through space, shooting towards Long Ze Liyue and Ling Feng from all directions!

"Humph!"

A slight smile appeared on Ling Feng's lips, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

He simply took a step forward.

There was no earth-shattering energy eruption, nor any dazzling divine manifestation.

Just one step!
hum! ——

Centered on his landing point, an invisible ripple spread out silently!
Time seemed to stretch out infinitely at this moment!

Those billions of chains of light and dust, tearing through space and carrying destructive power, touched that invisible ripple the instant—

It was like hitting the hardest barrier in the world!
Click!

Click!

Click!

The sound of cracking and shattering was deafening!
The light arrow, which was powerful enough to pierce through an ordinary third-level priest, crumbled into tiny pieces like fragile glass, turning into countless flying dust fragments!

The storm stopped the next moment.

There was a deathly silence in the Longze family square.

The ferocious killing intent on the faces of the thousands of private soldiers of the Longze family froze, turning into incomprehensible bewilderment and deep-seated fear.

The pupils of dozens of elders, including the Grand Elder Long Ze Chongming, suddenly contracted to pinpoints!
His body began to tremble uncontrollably!
step!
Just one step!
The "Light Dust Strangulation Array," which the Longze family had built with enormous resources and was powerful enough to trap a third-level priest, was crushed underfoot by this masked gray-robed servant, just like a child's toy!
"You...who are you?!"

Ryuzawa Chongming's voice was dry and hoarse, the veins on his hand holding the Amaterasu Scepter bulged, and his body trembled slightly uncontrollably.

The terror of this "Long Fei" before him far exceeded all his imagination!
Ling Feng did not answer.

He simply raised his right hand slowly, spread his five fingers, and made a grabbing motion in the air in the direction where Long Zechongming was.

There are no energy fluctuations, and no spatial distortions.

Long Ze Chongming felt as if an invisible hand was gripping his throat, and the space around him was forcibly solidified and compressed by an irresistible force!
"Great Elder!"

"Protect the Grand Elder!"

Several loyal elders, their eyes bloodshot with rage, unleashed their full power in an instant, unleashing the power of the pseudo-divine oracle's laws, and furiously attacked Ling Feng from all directions.

However, all the attacks vanished silently, just meters away from Ling Feng's body!
Not even a ripple was stirred!
Ling Feng gently brushed his hand away.

The movements were as gentle as brushing dust off one's shoulder.

Snapped!
A crisp, terrifying explosion!
Long Ze Chongming's emaciated body felt as if it had been struck hard by an invisible giant hand!

In an instant, his entire body spun and tumbled like a spinning top that had been flung away, before crashing heavily into the incredibly hard wall of the Mirror Heart Hall behind him!
boom!
The wall shook violently, leaving a human-shaped crater!

The spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly and exaggeratedly in all directions.

Longze Chongming was embedded in the wall like a flattened fly, spitting out blood mixed with pieces of internal organs!

Half of his cheek was swollen high, and countless teeth were broken. His cloudy old eyes were filled with boundless fear and unbelievable humiliation!
The mighty Elder of the Longze family, a peak Truth-level expert, was rendered utterly vulnerable, like an ant!
one move!
Just one move!
That would shatter his old face, along with the dignity of the entire Longze family.

The entire square was completely silent.

Only the painful groans of Longze Chongming and the "drip...drip..." sound of blood dripping onto the ground could be clearly heard.

Those elders and retainers who were originally full of murderous intent were frozen in place as if they had been frozen in place, their faces as pale as paper.

The gazes directed at Ling Feng were filled with indescribable horror! This was no longer a matter of difference in strength; it was a complete crushing defeat on a matter of life level!
"He...he is a clergyman!"

Everyone felt as if their blood had been frozen, and they could no longer move.

Long Ze Liyue nodded in satisfaction, and the next moment, she passed Ling Feng and headed straight for the main hall of the Long Ze family.

His icy gaze swept over the silent crowd, finally settling on Long Zechongming, who was embedded in the wall and on the verge of death: "Old man, I'll only say it once, hand over my sealed rank origin!"

Longze Chongming struggled to lift his head, a venomous and crazed smile forced onto his swollen and deformed face. He hissed, "Cough...cough...Longze Liyue! You...you can forget about it! Even if you kill me...you'll never get her! You'll never have her!"

He grinned maliciously and roared hysterically, "Wait...wait until the chieftain arrives! You! And that monster beside you! You'll...you'll all die without a burial place! You...you'll regret it! Regret crawling back from that filthy bottom city! Cough cough cough..."

"Stubborn!"

A murderous glint flashed in Ryuzawa Riyue's eyes. This old man had always been a staunch supporter of Ryuzawa Shuichi.

Even now, they are still so stubborn!

"It seems I wasn't ruthless enough, which gave you some unnecessary illusions!"

Long Ze Liyue snorted coldly. When she seized the Long Ze family's assets before, she still asked Ling Feng to show some mercy to the Long Ze family's members.

This made the elders think that they really wouldn't dare to kill him, right?

A cold glint flashed in her eyes. "Then, die with this loyalty!"

at this time--

hum!
The sky above the entire Longze Mansion suddenly darkened without warning!
A vast, ancient, yet cold and lonely will, like an invisible tide, silently swept over the entire Dragon Swamp Main Mansion!

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines, as if their souls were frozen by the will of the vast starry sky!

Immediately afterwards——

Billions of dazzling starlight suddenly lit up in that deep darkness!
The goddess of the stars, Sariel, slowly emerged from beneath that starry sky.

Half a step behind her, Long Zexiu stood with his hands behind his back, dressed in a simple silver-white robe. His face seemed calm, but deep in his eyes, there was a chilling killing intent and a trace of barely perceptible fear.

His gaze immediately locked onto Long Ze Liyue, and the gray-clad figure wearing a radiant gold mask beside her.

At the same time, Ling Feng's brows furrowed slightly.

two?

What a cautious Ryuzawa Shuichi!

The woman who descended with him was clearly also a first-level priest.

In terms of presence, he's not even inferior to Ryuzawa Shuichi.

Facing two opponents alone would likely be quite challenging.

However, if he were to summon Zi Ling, his identity would likely be exposed.

He clenched his fists. Oh well, he'd just have to take it one step at a time.

"Liyue."

The next moment, Sariel's ethereal voice rang out, like a flowing river of stars, carrying a strange power to soothe the restlessness, "Stop."

Her gaze swept across the chaotic square, finally settling on Ryuzawa Riyue.

"Back then, Shuichi already spared your life. Although the city was tough, at least your life was safe. Why cling to the past and insist on coming back to stir up bloodshed and add to the carnage?"

Long Ze Liyue looked at Sariel, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes—a mixture of nostalgia and sighs, which ultimately turned into a cold mockery: "Sariel, after all these years, you're still so naive."

She pointed at Ryuzawa Xiuichi, her voice suddenly rising, filled with deep-seated hatred: "Spare my life? He stole my divine office, extracted my essence, and threw me into the bottom city, that cannibalistic hell, like trash! If I hadn't been destined to die, I would have been reduced to ashes long ago! Is this the life you speak of?"

Sariel frowned slightly, her face beneath the starlight veil seeming to waver: "Liyue, we are connected by blood, ultimately..."

"enough!"

Longze Liyue interrupted sharply, "This is a family matter of my Longze family! It's a settlement between him and me! Sariel, as the Goddess of the Stars and the tenth seat of the Twelve Divine Seats of the Divine Court, do you also want to interfere in the internal affairs of my Longze family?"

Sariel remained silent for a moment, then looked back at Ryuzawa Shuichi, then at Ryuzawa Riyue, before finally letting out a soft sigh.

“I owe Xiuyi a favor. I am here today not as the tenth god, but as an old friend. Liyue, stop. If you are willing, I can vouch for you and have Xiuyi allow you to return to the family. Although you will not have any divine authority, you can at least enjoy the family's offerings and will not have to suffer in the bottom city again. Why should you and your brother go to such lengths?”

Ryuzawa Hideichi also stepped forward and said calmly, "Liyue, what happened back then was not my wish either. But there can only be one divine office, and I was the final winner! You can ask yourself, if you had won, would you have spared my life?"

Ryuzawa Riyue sneered, "If you had openly and honestly seized the position of Amaterasu, I would have nothing to say. But do you dare to say how you obtained it? Do you dare? If it was truly your grandfather who passed the position to you, then why is the Heavenly Dragon Blood Pearl, which symbolizes the head of the family, in my hands? Ryuzawa Shuichi, my dear brother, do you dare to tell everyone in front of them how you used dirty means to seize the position of Amaterasu?!"

"enough!"

Long Zexiu's expression suddenly changed. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "Li Yue, I know you have indeed suffered a lot over the years. If you are willing to come back, I can forgive and forget, and allow you to return to the family and enjoy the family's offerings. How about it?"

"Hahahaha!"

Long Ze Liyue laughed so hard tears almost came out, as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world. "Return to the family? Forgive and forget? My dear brother, you're making it sound so easy!"

Her laughter abruptly ceased, her eyes burning with a flame that could consume everything: "I've returned not for any family offerings! I've returned to reclaim everything that is rightfully mine! My divine office! My origin! And—your life!"

The last three words were like a cold dagger, piercing deeply into Ryuzawa Shuichi's heart.

Ryuzawa Shuichi's face was ashen, and the last trace of feigned calm in his eyes vanished completely, leaving only a chilling killing intent: "Sariel, you saw it. It's not that I don't care about past feelings, it's that she's stubborn and courting death!"

Sariel fell silent again.

Looking at the deep-seated hatred in Long Ze Liyue's eyes, and then at Long Ze Xiuyi's undisguised murderous intent, she realized that these two siblings would probably never be able to reconcile in this lifetime.

"Liyue, I'm asking you one last time."

Sariel's voice remained ethereal, yet it carried an unprecedented air of authority: "Retreat, or not?"

Long Ze Liyue raised her head, her long hair dancing wildly under the pressure of the Starry Sky Will. With the activation of the Heavenly Dragon Blood Pearl, it transformed into a blood-red dragon that coiled and wrapped around her.

She met those cold, clear eyes without flinching, and said, word by word, "Now that I, Long Ze Liyue, have returned, what is there to fear in a battle!"

After saying that, she turned back to look at Ling Feng beside her and whispered, "I didn't expect him to bring Sariel. You just need to finish this quickly and kill Ryuzawa Shuichi. I'll hold off Sariel."

Ling Feng simply shook his head and smiled, "It's alright, fighting one is the same as fighting two. As for just one seventh seat, I'm afraid that wouldn't be enough for me!" (End of Chapter)
