Apocalypse: Become stronger by absorbing flames at the start; my name is the Flame Emperor.

"boom--"

Two streaks of crimson flame swept across everything, directly annihilating all the shattered stone blades brought by the Myriad Swords Returning to the Origin in mid-air.

The collision of the two energies produced a tremendous explosion. Terrifying light engulfed everything, as if bombarded by missiles, and a huge mushroom cloud rose from the center.

The remaining power of the Crimson Lotus Annihilation Slash continued to strike, landing heavily on Xie Haoran.

He was sent flying by the blow.

"How is that possible?"

Xie Haoran was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground and coughing up mouthfuls of blood.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

"How could this happen?"

"That was a strike I unleashed after plundering the entire mountain of life, a strike I delivered at my absolute limit. How could it be so easily defeated?"

"I am not reconciled. I am the most outstanding genius of the Xie family, a super S-level powerhouse."

Xie Haoran stared blankly, unable to accept this ending.

Even in Kyoto, facing the most mysterious and powerful blade, he remained fearless. He believed himself to be no weaker than his opponent, and perhaps even stronger.

Blade.

That was someone recognized within the temple as being even more powerful than the Magician and the Master.

"Xie Haoran, do you have any other tricks up your sleeve?"

"If you don't have any left, then you—can go to hell."

Lin Yu emerged from the smoke and dust.

A sinister smile hung on his face.

"Ah Jie, Ah Man, and all the brothers who died because of me, I will avenge you in this life the grudges of our past lives."

Lin Yu grinned, a smile that Xie Haoran found utterly terrifying.

"Wait, wait—"

Xie Haoran finally snapped out of his daze and hurriedly spoke.

He cannot die; he must live.

As long as he lives, with his talent for plunder, he will one day stand at the top of the world.

Everyone will grovel at his feet.

"One failure is nothing, as long as I survive," he muttered to himself.

"Do you have any last words?"

"Magician, I am the future head of the Xie family in Kyoto! You can't kill me!"

"The Xie family of Kyoto, so powerful? I'm going to destroy your Xie family." Lin Yu licked his lips, a hint of madness in his eyes.

As he spoke, he slowly raised the flaming blade in his hand and began to demonstrate it on Xie Haoran's body.

next moment.

Two slashes.

"ah--"

A heart-wrenching scream echoed through the mountains and forests.

Both Xiong Ba and the Holy Tiger of Light couldn't help but shiver.

"This human is terrifying."

A chill ran through the heart of the Holy Tiger of Light.

Its body began to slowly retreat, trying to leave this place silently, to leave that terrifying human.

Anyway, Xie Haoran's magic circle has now disappeared, so it can leave easily.

"Tiger, I advise you to stay put and not move around."

"Otherwise, once this matter is resolved, my boss will find you and skin you alive." Xiong Ba's threatening voice rang out, causing it to pause in its tracks.

Then I dared not move again.

"Magician, how dare you sever my tendons?" Xie Haoran roared, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, enduring the excruciating pain.

"Xie Haoran, I swore a long, long time ago that I would tear you to pieces. How could I go back on my word?"

"A long, long time ago?"

Xie Haoran's mind went blank for a moment, then he burst out cursing, "Are you fucking crazy?"

Did they know each other a long time ago, at least before the apocalypse?

Would the young master of the Xie family in Kyoto know a nobody like Kundu?

"Whoosh—"

A cold glint flashed in Lin Yu's eyes.

Suddenly, the flaming blade in his hand plunged into Xie Haoran's thigh.

"Aaaaaah!" The screams grew even louder.

Lin Yu gripped the knife and slowly rotated it. The excruciating pain almost made Xie Haoran faint.

"Magician, if you kill me, the Xie family will not let you off, nor will the temple."

"You dare threaten me when you're about to die?"

Lin Yu drew his knife, aimed it at Xie Haoran's chest, and slowly said, "If you were smart enough, you should beg me for mercy, and maybe I'd spare your life?"

As he spoke, the flaming blade swiftly descended, piercing straight into Xie Haoran's chest.

"Magician, let's talk this out. As long as you stop, the Xie family will grant you whatever you want."

Xie Haoran gritted his teeth and didn't utter a sound.

However, he finally dared not be stubborn anymore, and his tone became somewhat submissive.

"OK!"

"I have only one condition."

"Go ahead," Xie Haoran said, a glimmer of hope appearing in his eyes.

"My condition is that I want your entire Xie family to die!" Lin Yu's eyes suddenly changed.

With a "whoosh," the flaming blade in his hand was pulled downwards.

Instantly, Xie Haoran's stomach was cut open, and blood splattered everywhere.

"Aaaaaaah!"

Xie Haoran let out another mournful wail, his pupils wide open and bloodshot.

The intestines and internal organs ruptured completely and slowly flowed out.

"Hahaha!"

Suddenly, Xie Haoran burst into wild laughter.

He knew that Lin Yu would never let him go, so he no longer had any reservations.

"Magician, you will pay the price for what you have done today."

"The entire eternal day will be destroyed because of you, and those people will suffer the same fate as me."

"And you, in the near future, I will personally twist your head off to avenge today's humiliation."

Xie Haoran kept spitting out blood.

But he didn't care at all, instead staring intently at Lin Yu.

"In the near future? You won't have the chance."

Lin Yu slashed twice more.

This time, they cut off all four of Xie Haoran's limbs.

"Hahaha! Magician, don't think you've already won. The game has only just begun."

"You think you can really kill me?"

"Hahaha, you have no idea how terrifying I am."

Xie Haoran had lost all sense of pain. He laughed wildly, but his eyes no longer held fear; instead, they were filled with hatred.

"hehe!"

"It's you who knows nothing about me."

Lin Yu sneered.

Then the earth shook violently, magic surged, and hundreds of flames burst through the ground, rising up and engulfing Xie Haoran's body, burning him to ashes.

When everything settles down.

Lin Yu slowly emerged from the flames.

"Boss." Xiong Ba hurriedly stepped forward.

The power Lin Yu displayed today instilled fear in him.

too frightening.

"Boss, what should we do with this woman?"

Lin Yu looked at Xie Yu'er and found that the woman was also looking at him.

The two locked eyes.

"Brother Yu, can I come with you? I don't want to go back to the Xie family." A glimmer of hope appeared in Xie Yu'er's eyes.

Today, the Xie family is completely dead in her heart.

"Your surname is Xie, and you're from the Xie family. I'm not killing you because you risked your life to protect me before."

"Otherwise, you would already be a corpse by now."

Lin Yu's calm words sent a pang of pain through Xie Yu'er's heart.

"Don't go back to the Xie family once you've recovered from your injuries, or I'll kill you if we meet again." A flash of killing intent crossed Lin Yu's eyes.

After saying that, he turned and left.

Lin Yu paused as he passed the Holy Tiger of Light.

I almost forgot about this guy.
