The Great Ruler: Starting from the Dark Ages

Chapter 26 But I Caught You
As soon as the words fell, the mood of everyone in the Jiang family suddenly plummeted.

There is nothing more to say, he comes with bad intentions.

Jiang Taixu clenched his fists tightly, extremely unwilling to give in. Even the wounds that had just formed blood shackles began to crack again as his body trembled.

"We are all wanderers in this world... why are you doing this, senior?" Jiang Taixu said.

The Jiang family and the Shenzhou Dynasty both belong to the declining imperial clan. Jiang Taixu can only hold on to the last bit of fantasy, hoping that their shared suffering will make the other party show mercy.

If he were alone, he would definitely not do this. He might even fight with him and try to attack him against the will of heaven.

But now he still has a group of clansmen behind him, and he is no longer able to fight.

The Inspector of the Shenzhou Dynasty shook his head slightly:
"I'm here on orders, so please don't make things difficult for me."

"Fellow Daoist..." The powerful elder of the Jiang family coughed up a mouthful of blood, a trace of unwillingness still lingering on his desperate face: "When has my Jiang family ever wronged anyone?"

"Do you really want to wipe out the Jiang family?"

"Do you really not care about the bloody tragedy of the Taiyin Emperor and the Taiyang Empress in the past?"

As soon as the words were spoken, many monks who were watching from afar and wanted to get a piece of the pie fell into deep thought.

In order to quell the dark turmoil, the Sun Emperor is willing to revive his human skin and fight again. The Moon Emperor's son breaks through the source of God and is born.

Unfortunately, the descendants of the two great emperors, Taiyin and Taiyang, were almost all slaughtered or destroyed.

The Jiang family’s current scenario is indeed somewhat similar.

Emperor Hengyu may really follow in the footsteps of the Moon Emperor and the Sun Emperor.

Of course, there are also some monks who do not feel any guilt at all.

"What dark turmoil? I've never heard of it since I was a child. Besides, cultivation is against the will of heaven. It's the survival of the fittest, the strong prey on the weak! So what if your Jiang family once had a great emperor? If you don't have the strength to preserve your foundation, opportunities, and achievements, then hand them over to me!"

More than a thousand years have passed since the greatest dark turmoil in history. During this long period of time, batch after batch of monks were born. Even in the Dharma Ending Age, they were the best and their skills were amazing.

I don’t know how high the green mountains are or how thick the earth is.

It is normal to be unaware of the darkness and chaos.

Having never personally experienced that kind of despair, nor uttered that kind of roar at the top of their lungs, they are unable to empathize with the situation or sympathize with it.

Perhaps the story of Emperor Xu He was also regarded as a non-existent legend by them since childhood due to the influence of their ears and eyes.

Who told the Emperor of Heaven to have no forces under his command to rule the star field, and not to appear in the world for a thousand years?
Over the course of thousands of years, the mortal world has experienced the succession of several dynasties.

Sitting high in the sky, Xu He's face was extremely gloomy.

When he appeared on earth and preached the scriptures, all races respected him as the Emperor of Heaven. But when he was in seclusion, practicing meditation and understanding the fate of immortality, darkness grew wantonly in places he could not see.

Has it spread to this extent now?

Xu He had a complicated expression. Cultivation was indeed a world of the survival of the fittest, and this might never change.

"Perhaps the Three Realms and Six Paths were truly destroyed by the four words 'immortality'."

Xu He's murmurs frightened the Great Sage Yaoguang who was standing beside him. He turned his head to glance at the young Emperor of Heaven and sighed in his heart.

He is so young, yet he has such insights. He is truly worthy of being the Emperor of Heaven.

While Yaoguang the Great Sage sighed, he quietly took a step away, fearing that if this ancestor got unhappy, he would use his imperial power and get himself involved.

"Is there no one who can stand up?" Xu He was very disappointed and sighed: "Even if there is only one person, it would be great."

He also walked out of a sea of ​​blood and corpses, and fought with others to the death for opportunities, but at least his bottom line has never changed.

Perhaps it was the invincible desire to achieve enlightenment that had been influencing him. He really wanted to see someone stand up and take action, even if it was just to say a word for the Jiang family.

Just like the dark turmoil thousands of years ago.

He saw with his own eyes how many heroes rose up and wielded the yellow axe, even if it was like moths to a flame, but he saw it.

Now, will anyone stand up?

Xu He was looking forward to the answer.

Everyone in the Jiang family is also waiting for the answer.

Time ticked by, and the setting sun dyed the sky red, a red that looked as if it could drip blood, a foreshadowing of the day's outcome. Amidst the mocking laughter of countless cultivators and the dismay of the Jiang family, one figure finally stepped forward.

He had white hair and a white beard, and his strength was not that strong. Perhaps he was just an ant in the eyes of the inspector. Under the pressure, he staggered, but he finally walked step by step in front of the Jiang family.

Although this person's strength cannot change the current situation of the Jiang family, everyone in the Jiang family still looks at him with gratitude.

At least someone stood up.

At first, there was only one white-haired old man, then it gradually expanded to three or five people, and gradually developed to dozens of people.

Some of them have not much time left to live, while others are in their prime.

"You are old, are you going to die?" The Shenzhou Inspector narrowed his eyes and looked at the old man with white hair and long beard.

The old man sighed and said, "I received your kindness in the past, and I repay you with my life today."

Hearing this answer, the inspector was displeased and snorted coldly.

He originally wanted to use words to disperse a group of people and reduce resistance, after all, there were a lot of people, but he never expected to hear such a result.

Although he said he was not afraid, this move was so open and aboveboard that it was somewhat outrageous.

Perhaps many monks will not care, and the big bosses behind the scenes will not care either.

But his life is his own, and he has to think about himself.

The Shenzhou Inspector turned his head and looked at a young cultivator. "What about you? You are still so young, but you are already a Four-Pole cultivator. This is truly rare in the Dharma Ending Age."

"I'll withdraw now and spare your life..."

The inspector's eyes flickered with anticipation. Perhaps the man just now could be said to have been indebted and repaid a favor during the dark turmoil, but this man was so young that he would not be able to receive any favor.

"I'm not leaving." The Four Extremes cultivator shook his head, his figure still protecting the Jiang family.

The patrol officer was furious, his old face flushed red, and he almost roared:

"Why are you?"

"First, I can tell right from wrong." The young man pointed his hand slowly towards the inspector. "Second, I can't stand your bullying behavior. Is that okay?"

As soon as the words were spoken, countless people were surprised.

This person really doesn't care about his life!
"Okay, okay, then you will die with the Jiang family!" The inspector was furious. Although he had some concerns just now, his anger had overwhelmed his thinking at this moment.

He was a half-step powerful being. In this Dharma Ending Age, he would be treated with courtesy in any holy place he went to. But now he was being insulted by a young child. How could he tolerate this?
He took out a stone hammer, which suddenly expanded several times in size, and smashed down towards the Siji youth and everyone from the Jiang family!
Everyone anticipated the horrific and bloody ending.

Everyone closed their eyes.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

The expected screams did not happen, and the images did not appear.

The stone hammer...did not fall.

Countless people opened their eyes, and the Shenzhou Inspector widened his eyes even more, trying to see the situation below through the stone hammer.

Jiang Taixu opened his eyes and saw a tall and majestic figure with fluttering sleeves, pointing one finger to the sky, catching the heavy hammer of the half-step great man.

"Friend, I am the Inspector of Shenzhou, and..."

Before he could finish his words, the figure below flicked the stone hammer lightly, and it turned into powder in an instant, and the steaming sand mist covered the sky.

The Inspector of Shenzhou already felt something was wrong. The man in front of him was definitely not someone he could contend with, and his cultivation might be as high as the Saint Lord level.

Xu He opened his hand, and a powerful suction force embedded the patrol officer who was looking down from the sky into the ground.

"Friend... Senior, I am not the only one who has taken action." The Shenzhou Inspector coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his will to fight was gone. He only wanted to protect himself.

He quickly pointed to the monks watching from a distance:
"They have also made a move. Why do you have to keep holding me as your own?"

Xu He grinned and said in the same tone as the inspector just now:

"But I caught you."
