Seeing Chen Xiu's chillingly murderous gaze, the King of the East Sea cowered.

With each step Chen Xiu took forward, the King of the East Sea would retreat two steps in fright...

Having retreated to the base of the wall, with nowhere left to go, the King of the East Sea said in a trembling voice, "I... I am a prince of the Great Xia Kingdom. If you kill me, you will be showing contempt for royal authority and the royal family!"

However, Chen Xiu seemed not to hear him and continued walking towards the King of the East Sea step by step.

Everyone around was so frightened that they held their breath and stared wide-eyed at the scene.

They were all curious whether Chen Xiu dared to kill the King of the East Sea!

"What...what do you want? Don't come any closer!!"

The King of the East Sea was so frightened that his legs trembled uncontrollably, like a plucked pipa. "I...I am the King of the East Sea, I am a prince of the Great Xia Kingdom! You...you can't..."

Bang!!

Chen Xiu had already walked up to the King of the East Sea, grabbed him by the neck with one hand and lifted him up.

"If I want to kill you, whether you are a prince or the emperor, you will die!"

Chen Xiu's gaze was filled with chilling killing intent, and his tone was as cold as a thousand-year-old glacier, "I just said, if your answer doesn't satisfy me, I'll make sure your whole family dies!!"

"I……"

The King of the East Sea hung suspended, his face turning a deep purplish-red. He struggled desperately, crying, "I...I didn't want to hunt down your parents. It was...some powerful figures wanted the jade pendant they possessed! They ordered me to...cough cough...Spare me!!"

Because of difficulty breathing, the East Sea King's face had turned blackish-purple, and he could barely speak.

He felt as if he could already see Death!

Splash...

The sound of water was heard; it turned out that the King of the East Sea had wet his pants.

Upon seeing this, everyone present subconsciously took a step back, and their gazes toward Chen Xiu became increasingly wary.

This is the King of the East Sea!!

I was so scared by some nobody that I wet my pants!

The King of the East Sea has lived a life of luxury for so many years, of course he's afraid of death...

Especially when he was being choked and unable to breathe, the immense fear combined with the potentially fatal suffocation caused him to wet his pants in public!

"Who is this important person?"

Chen Xiu frowned slightly, and the hand gripping the East Sea King's neck loosened a little.

"Huff!! Huff!! Huff!!"

The King of the East Sea greedily inhaled the surrounding air, as if he had just been pulled back from the brink of death.

After taking several deep breaths, the King of the East Sea finally recovered a little. He chuckled self-deprecatingly and then said, "Big shots... Heh, even I call them big shots, so their status must be incredibly illustrious!"

"Do you think I'd reveal their names!?"

"Say it, your whole family will die!"

"If you don't talk, your whole family will die!"

"Why not take a gamble! I'll give you wealth and glory, and you spare my life and that of my family... My palace is filled with countless priceless treasures!"

After saying that, he looked at Chen Xiu with anticipation.

He then continued, "Killing me won't do you any good! If you don't kill me, I can pretend today never happened. How much money do you want? I'll give you that much money!"

"Hehehe."

Hearing what the King of the East Sea said, Chen Xiu grinned.

"You agree?"

The King of the East Sea revealed a look of joy.

"No, I'm laughing at you for being so naive at your age..."

Chen Xiu gently shook his head, then traced a line between the eyebrows of the King of the East Sea with his fingertip.

A wound appeared, and blood flowed out.

"ah!"

The King of the East Sea frowned in pain, not understanding what Chen Xiu meant!

Chen Xiu extended his finger and touched the blood on the East Sea King's forehead with his fingertip, saying, "I told you, if your answer doesn't satisfy me, I'll make sure your entire family dies!!"

After saying that, Chen Xiu made a strange hand seal with his right hand.

"Bloodline Curse Kill!!"

Four spit-out spouts.

Pfft!

Pfft!

Pfft!

The family members of the Prince of Donghai in the palace suddenly coughed up blood one by one, and then collapsed to the ground with their eyes wide open.

Not only those inside the palace, but even the East Sea King's nephew standing outside suddenly widened his eyes, then clutched his heart and spat out a cloud of blood mist with a "poof!"

Then, with a stiff expression, he collapsed to the ground...

Although their deaths weren't particularly gruesome, their stiff and contorted expressions suggested they must have suffered greatly before dying!

"Aaaaaaah!!"

The King of the East Sea let out a shrill scream.

Just now, when Chen Xiu activated the Bloodline Curse Kill, images automatically appeared in his mind.

Images of the wife vomiting blood and collapsing to the ground! Images of the son vomiting blood and collapsing to the ground! Images of the daughter vomiting blood and collapsing to the ground...

Those vivid images seemed to be telling the King of the East Sea that this was not an illusion!

Especially when he saw his nephew lying on the ground, dying in the exact same way as his wife and children, the King of the East Sea finally understood that the demon in front of him had killed his entire family with just one spell!

"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!!"

The King of the East Sea had bloodshot eyes, wishing he could tear Chen Xiu to pieces.

"You're very angry, aren't you!?"

Chen Xiu met the East Sea King's anger with a calm gaze, and then said in a light tone, "Do you know how angry I was when I saw my parents covered in injuries and had to entrust me to others?!"

At this point, Chen Xiu's tone was already filled with murderous intent.
