Starting with being handed over to the Imperial Concubine, building a family with a thousand-year hi

In their despair, a cryptic voice echoed in the ears of all the human cultivators: "Our human race has not yet perished. We still have one last hope. One person can turn the tide!"

Upon hearing this, the same name instantly came to mind for all the human cultivators—Su Mu!

They had never witnessed Su Mu's incredible combat power within the secret realm, and were unaware that it was so formidable that it could crush even those in the Saint Realm.

But everyone knew that Su Mu had a top-tier Saint Realm expert by his side, and his own talent and combat power were unparalleled. As long as Su Mu and Yu Sheng returned, they could attack from both inside and outside, and even if the enemy had many trump cards, the human race would still have a chance to turn the tide!

Hope was instantly rekindled in everyone's hearts. They stared intently at the battlefield, waiting for a turning point.

However, on the battlefield, the situation had already become one-sided.

Xiao Xuance faced two great god-kings alone and was at a complete disadvantage from the very beginning of the battle.

In just a few dozen rounds, his body was covered with hideous wounds, his spiritual energy was disordered, and his blood and qi were exhausted. He was already at his last gasp.

boom!

A violent clash suddenly erupted, and Xiao Xuance was sent flying thousands of feet backward by the two immense forces. He barely managed to steady himself, spitting out mouthfuls of scarlet blood. His face was ashen, and his life force was rapidly fading away.

The human cultivators below shook their heads sadly at the sight, their hearts filled with sorrow.

The human god-king who ruled the Star Palace for 100,000 years is finally coming to an end.

However, Xiao Xuance had an extremely strong will to survive. Even on the verge of death, he refused to accept his fate and instead forced himself to hold on to his remaining body, trying to intimidate his opponents and seek a chance to survive.

"Do you think you can rest easy after killing me?"

"Our human race has more than just Yu Sheng as a Saint Realm expert; Su Mu also has a top-tier Saint Realm expert backing him!"

"When they return, even with two great holy realms in the Blood Cherry Clan, the outcome will be uncertain! You must not push things too far, lest you regret it later!"

He deliberately brought up Su Mu and the powerful figures behind him, hoping to make the Palace Master and the Three-Eyed Clan God King wary and hesitant to act against him, thus leaving himself a chance to survive.

However, his desperate words only aroused contempt and anger among all the human cultivators below.

Everyone originally regarded Su Mu as the only hope for a comeback, but Xiao Xuance pointed it out in front of everyone, which was tantamount to informing the opponent in advance, allowing the opponent to make plans to target him and kill all chances of survival!

"You damned Xiao Xuance! Even in your dying moments, you drag your young friend Su Mu down with you!"

"Selfish and self-serving! To survive, they're willing to sacrifice the last hope of humanity!"

Countless disapproving and contemptuous gazes fell upon Xiao Xuance, and the previous pity and sorrow turned into disgust and resentment.

On the battlefield, upon hearing this, the Three-Eyed God-King sneered, his face full of disdain and arrogance.

"Xiao Xuance's desperate struggle is futile!"

"Do you think we haven't thought of the backup plans you can come up with? Why do you think we dare to act so recklessly?"

"To tell you the truth, we have already secretly contacted the Blood Cherry Clan, and they have dispatched another Saint Realm expert to reinforce us!"

"We now possess three Saint Realm experts! Even if we add the newly promoted Yu Sheng, or even the Saint Realm expert behind Su Mu, they are doomed!"

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent.

Xiao Xuance's eyes suddenly dimmed, completely losing all their luster, and his last hope was utterly shattered.

The Three-Eyed God-King, unwilling to waste any more words, unleashed a surge of spiritual power, gathering overwhelming killing intent, and coldly declared, "Prepare to die!"

"Don't worry, Yu Sheng and Su Mu will soon come to keep you company on your journey to the underworld!"

The palace master beside him also completely suppressed all hesitation, his killing intent soaring, preparing the strongest killing move of his life.

Two terrifying attacks erupted simultaneously, traversing the sky with destructive power, and slammed into Xiao Xuance, who was on the verge of death!

Xiao Xuance gritted his teeth and urged the last bit of spiritual power in his body to desperately block the attack.

But he was already exhausted and his body was too weak to withstand the deadly attacks of the two god-kings.

A deafening roar shook the heavens and earth, and the violent energy instantly engulfed Xiao Xuance's body, annihilating his flesh, blood, and soul.

Thus, Xiao Xuance, the human god-king who had ruled the Star Palace for 100,000 years, completely perished.

On the planet Taidou, with the fall of the human god-king Xiao Xuance, the remaining human cultivators were completely powerless to resist.

Under the palace master's attempts to appease and the three-eyed god king's iron-fisted intimidation, all the human cultivators had no choice but to lay down their weapons and submit.

After quelling the internal strife within the human race and stabilizing the situation in the Star Palace, the Palace Master immediately turned to the Three-Eyed Clan God King and solemnly ordered: "The internal threat has been eliminated. You shall immediately lead the elite of your clan to Tianyuan Star and bring back all of Su Mu's closest relatives alive and unharmed!"

The Three-Eyed God-King frowned slightly upon hearing this, utterly perplexed: "Capture them alive and bring them back? Why go through all that trouble? Just slaughter them all, wipe out all life on Tianyuan Star, and eliminate any future threats!"

In his view, with three Saint Realm experts in charge, victory was assured and there was no need to fear Su Mu or waste energy capturing a hostage.

Even if they manipulated Su Mu's closest relatives, they could not intimidate the supreme power behind him; it would be a completely unnecessary effort.

But the Palace Master's attitude was unusually firm, brooking no argument: "No need for further questions, just obey orders. Capture them all alive, without harming a single one. Set off immediately!"

Sensing the cold tone and hidden anger in the Palace Master's voice, the Three-Eyed Clan God King dared not argue any further. He immediately gathered more than ten of the clan's top experts, transformed into a streak of light, and sped towards Tianyuan Star.

The reason why the palace master insisted on capturing the enemy alive and refused to harm him was not because he knew all the secrets, but because he had a strange intuition.

Su Mu is a mysterious and unpredictable man with boundless potential. He is clearly the key to the success or failure of this conflict among the heavens. He must not be easily offended or his relatives and friends should not be slaughtered indiscriminately.

……

After traveling for half a day to Tianyuan Star, far from the territory of Taidou Star, a powerful member of the Three-Eyed Clan in the group finally couldn't contain himself and quietly asked via telepathy, "Your Majesty, should we really devote all our efforts to supporting that Palace Master's ascension to the throne?"

The words were cryptic, yet they revealed the doubts in everyone's hearts. None of them were willing to be subservient to others, nor were they willing to work for someone else's benefit.

The Three-Eyed God-King smiled calmly upon hearing this, a shrewd and ruthless glint flashing in his eyes, and slowly said, "No rush. The position of Palace Master has never been secure."

"Once Yu Sheng and Su Mu return, let the Palace Master face their overwhelming rage directly, shielding us from all danger. We can then remain hidden behind the scenes, observe their battle, and reap the benefits!"

His clansmen instantly understood and praised him repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, the God-King, is a master strategist! Using someone else to do your dirty work and reaping the benefits—brilliant!"

"First, we'll use the Palace Master to slaughter the human race, then we'll use Su Mu and Yu Sheng to eliminate the Palace Master! At that time, the Star Palace will be without a master, and my Three-Eyed Clan will be able to seize power. With the Blood Cherry Clan backing us, we will surely rise to become one of the great clans of the heavens!"

A barrage of flattery followed, making the Three-Eyed God-King feel pleased and elated.
