The three Yama ancestors were possessed by evil spirits and wanted to change the owner of the Yama world. When Yan Tianxiao decided to fight against his ancestors, he probably never dreamed that the first person to defect would be his most valued son, whom he chose as the "Yama Prince".
"Prince, are you...are you crazy?" the ninth Yama demon Yan Tu roared.
Yan Tianxiao flew up and came to Yan Wu's side. The power of the God Emperor surged, quickly covering her injuries. Then he slowly turned his head, but there was no anger in his eyes, but deep disappointment and sadness, and he did not say a word.
Yan Wu slowly stood up, her face pale and her whole body trembling. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and there seemed to be flames burning in her beautiful eyes.
"Yan...Jie!"
This was the first time she called her brother by his name: "You...beast!"
Yan Jie's expression changed rapidly, and he shouted in a deep voice: "The order of our ancestors should be the will of heaven! Without our ancestors, how can there be Yan Mo! Without our ancestors, how can there be descendants like us. Those who rebel against their ancestors are beasts!"
If Yan Jie was still frightened after he made the move, when he shouted these words, he became extremely calm... He was calmer than he had ever been in his life.
He even suddenly felt that this might be the boldest, most ruthless and wisest choice he had ever made in his life!
If a man wants to achieve great things, how can he be hesitant and soft-hearted? When the opportunity comes, he should be ruthless for himself!
"Rebellious...son!" Yan Tianxiao murmured softly, followed by a long sigh.
He understood why Yan Jie was like this.
Yan Jie inherited Yan Mo's legacy and had extremely impressive talents. He was chosen as the crown prince without any controversy. He was radiant and would naturally succeed to the throne of God Emperor in the future.
But, Yan Wu was born and grew up... He inherited the Yama legacy in childhood, and later became a tenth-level God Lord at the age of three thousand years old, and his aura far surpassed him.
This would undoubtedly make Yan Jie, the crown prince, anxious and uneasy.
In Yan Tianxiao's view, this is both a heavy pressure and a motivation and a test for Yan Jie.
If he can work hard under the pressure from Yan Wu, he will surely become a better Prince Yama.
Therefore, Yan Tianxiao has been deliberately showing his admiration and preference for Yan Wu in front of Yan Jie over the years, and even... intentionally spread rumors that he might depose the crown prince and make Yan Wu the crown princess.
In recent years, based on Yan Jie's performance, he began to feel that he seemed to have overestimated Yan Jie's ambitions and ability to endure, but he still held great expectations.
but……
But today, it has ended up like this, how sad.
“Very good, very good.” Yun Che praised, his eyes narrowed into two sinister slits: “As expected of you, you are the Crown Prince of Yama.”
Yan Jie quickly leaned forward and said, "Thank you, Emperor Yun, for your praise. As a descendant, we should obey our ancestors' wishes and follow the righteous principles! Emperor Yun is the Demon Emperor in this world, which is the supreme gift of Heaven to the Northern Territory. Assisting Emperor Yun is also in accordance with Heaven's will!"
After saying this, he turned sideways and said to Yan Tianxiao and the other Yanmo people, "Father, and all my brothers and fellow tribesmen, the will of our ancestors cannot be reversed, and the will of heaven cannot be reversed! Don't be stubborn any longer!"
His expression and words became several degrees harder than before.
Over the years, he has been suppressed under the halo of Yan Wu. Although he is the appointed Prince Yanmo, in the eyes of everyone, he is far inferior to Yan Wu in every aspect... Even he himself would feel deeply ashamed when facing Yan Wu.
But now, here's your chance to get away from it all!
The powerful and invincible Three Yama Ancestors surrendered to Yun Che, and the Yama Crossing the Underworld Cauldron also fell into Yun Che’s hands.
And behind Yun Che, there is the Soul Stealing Realm, and the Burning Moon Realm that he had just taken over.
Although he also couldn't figure out why the Three Yama Ancestors were like this. However, as long as he weighed the pros and cons, on one side were the Three Yama Ancestors, the Yama Crossing the Underworld Cauldron, the Soul Robbery Realm, and the Burning Moon Realm, and on the other side was the Yama Realm that had lost its patron saint and the lifeblood of its inheritance...
The pros and cons are immediately apparent!
After the Three Yama Ancestors suppressed Yan Tianxiao in an instant and displayed their unparalleled strength, Yan Jie's last hesitation was completely annihilated.
The first one to surrender will undoubtedly be the most favored.
He also knew that the best way to surrender was to pay a token of loyalty!
So he used all his strength to strike at the strongest Yama... This strike was not only to show his loyalty, but also contained the resentment and jealousy that he had accumulated for many years.
"You traitorous bastard!" Yan Tianxiao cursed angrily, then sighed solemnly: "I pride myself on my ability to control people, but... I was blinded by an eagle."
As he sighed to himself, he raised the Yama Spear in his hand, but the tip of the spear was no longer pointing at Yun Che, but at Yama Jie.
“Oh, Yan Tianxiao, your son is much more sensible than you are.” Yun Che said sarcastically, and then his voice suddenly sank: “Destroy him.”
Facing Yan Tianxiao's angry eyes, the residual power from his father still made Yan Jie's heartstrings tense, but his eyes became even more ruthless.
When Yun Che shouted the three words "destroy him", he thought he was ordering the three Yama ancestors to attack Yan Tianxiao, but suddenly he felt three huge forces pressing down from behind.
He was horrified and quickly used his strength to resist. However, the three dark forces were as huge as a mountain that could support the sky. Before he could release his Yama power, it was pressed back into his Xuanmai. Then, his limbs and even his entire body were tightly pressed down, and he could no longer move an inch.
As Yama, the power of the ninth level of Yama Jie Divine Lord Realm is extremely powerful.
But, the person who attacked him was the Three Yama Ancestors!
Being suppressed by the three Yama ancestors, even Yan Tianxiao couldn't easily break free, let alone Yan Jie.
"Emperor Yun, you...what do you mean!" Yan Jie gritted his teeth and struggled, but the space around him seemed to be completely solidified. No matter how hard he tried, he could not move even a finger.
Not only Yan Jie, but all the Yama people were stunned as well.
“Heh,” Yun Che sneered, but without even looking at him, he said calmly, “It would be fine if you didn’t fight hard against the clan’s difficulties. But as the crown prince, you were the first to rebel, and you even severely injured your own sister.”
"A bastard like you is worthy of serving me!?"
Yan Jie’s face was distorted. He was about to argue, but suddenly his pupils dilated and the words that were about to come out turned into a terrified roar: “You…what are you going to do!”
Yun Che grabbed the Yama Crossing Underworld Cauldron with one hand. Mysterious energy surged, and a stream of black energy poured out from the cauldron, wrapping around Yan Jie’s body, magnifying his fear countless times in an instant.
"Stop... Stop... Stop!" Yan Jie's pupils were dilated and his face was as pale as paper. His whole body was trembling in fear. He struggled even harder, but he could not break free from the grip of the Three Yanzu.
"Emperor Yun... I betrayed my father's family and surrendered to you... I was the first one to pledge allegiance to you! You can't do this to me... Emperor Yun! Emperor Yun... You can't do this to me!"
"ah!!"
His fear and pleading turned into desperate screams the moment the black light of the Yama Du Ming Ding was released.
Under the black light, a dark wave of air quickly surged out from Yan Jie's body like a torrent and returned to the black cauldron.
This is the Yama source power inherited from Yama Jie's body. Now, it has been forcibly taken back by the Yama Crossing the Underworld Cauldron controlled by Yun Che.
“Ah…Ah…Ah…Ah!” Yan Jie’s screams gradually became weaker, but his roars became more and more miserable: “Yun Che…Yun Che, you will not die well…Father, save me…Save me…Ah…Ah…”
No one responded to his screams and wails, whether Yun Che, Yan Zu, or anyone else from Yan Mo.
Yan Zu was working together to control Yan Jie, and Yun Che was using the Yan Mo Du Ming Ding to forcibly deprive Yan Jie of the Yan Mo power. This was the best time for the Yan Mo Realm to take action.
But Yan Tianxiao did not move.
In his sight was Yan Jie's painfully twisted face, and in his ears was his miserable and desperate cry. Yan Tianxiao did not feel any joy in his heart, only deep pain and sadness... After all, that was the son he had loved for ten thousand years and had placed the greatest hopes on.
At the same time, another layer of shock surged deeply in his heart.
The Yama Du Ming Ding can indeed forcibly take back the Yama inheritance, but... to control the Yama Du Ming Ding, one must possess the Yama bloodline.
Like all artifacts of divine and demonic origin, the Yama Du Ming Ding would have become useless waste if it fell into the hands of others.
But in his sight, Yun Che was clearly using the Yama Crossing the Dark Cauldron to deprive Yan Jie of his Yama inheritance!
Yan Jie's cries became weaker and weaker, and in the end turned into desperate whimpers.
The dark wave gradually stopped, and as the light of the Yama Duming Cauldron faded, Yan Jie's Yama power was completely deprived.
For a Yama, this is undoubtedly the cruelest nightmare in the world.
The interior space of the Yama Du Ming Ding was filled with a rich, dark light, like a quietly burning black flame.
The dark aura of Yan Jie has suddenly dropped to the level of a divine monarch. This is his own power. His eyes are dim, his face is ashen, and he no longer shouts or struggles.
Yun Che waved his hand, and the Three Yama Ancestors immediately pushed and threw Yan Jie down, landing in front of Yan Tianxiao and Yan Wu.
“It’s better to let Emperor Yan deal with this guy himself.” Yun Che squinted his eyes and said, “I don’t want to get involved with this kind of shit.”
Yan Jie collapsed there like a dead dog. He didn't stand up nor yell for mercy. He knew what his fate would be. Begging for mercy... would only destroy his last bit of pitiful dignity.
What was even sadder was that he lay there for a long time without anyone approaching him, not even one person to grab him and drag him away.
Was his choice wrong?
Maybe not.
At least he was not completely impulsive, but thought about his position and future and made enough considerations.
But he didn't know that what Yun Che hated most was betrayal.
From Yama's perspective, he defected in the face of danger and insidiously injured Yan Wu, Yama's most core force, which is also unforgivable.
“That’s cruel enough.” Yan Tianxiao only glanced at Yan Jie and then looked away completely: “But it’s also stupid enough!”
“Oh?” Yun Che tilted his eyebrows.
“Humph!” Yan Tianxiao said, “In this world, the one who bites his master the most cruelly is the dog who betrayed his master! Under the current situation, this dog… you abandoned it too early!”
Just ten breaths ago, Yan Jie was his most cherished son. But now, he called him a "dog".
“Hahahahahaha.” Yun Che laughed loudly and looked down proudly: “Yan Tianxiao, it seems that you don’t understand your situation at all. If I want to wipe out those who disobey my orders, what does a dog who betrays his master have to do with me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark light suddenly shone from his body, his black hair danced in the sky, and a storm rose up behind him, spreading across the sky.
In the storm, at the entrance to the Sea of Eternal Darkness, one... ten... a thousand... ten thousand... countless dark storms were like dragons rising into the sky from the abyss, roaring and roaring across the world. In an instant, they filled the sky above the Palace of Eternal Darkness and even the entire Yama Emperor's territory.
The sky will be covered with darkness forever, and the heaven and earth will be without light.
In the vast Yama Empire, every living being, every piece of land, and every inch of space were instantly covered under the heavy pressure of darkness, death, and despair.
It was like a sudden omen of doom.
“Ah…ah…ah…ah…” Yan Tianxiao stepped back, his head raised high, his pupils dilated. He, who had been so awe-inspiring a king a moment ago, was suddenly horrified by the enormous fear, and a terrified groan unconsciously escaped from his throat from the bottom of his soul.
“This…this…this this this…ah!”
All kinds of screams of fear and even despair echoed throughout the space.
Because what was covering the sky was definitely a force... enough to instantly destroy the Yama Emperor's domain and destroy everything!
The familiar dark aura was clearly the ancient dark yin energy from the Eternal Dark Bone Sea... When Yun Che waved his arm, it swept over the Yama Emperor's territory like an overturned sea!
Under such power, not to mention the Yama creatures, even the three Yama ancestors felt suffocated and bowed their heads in awe.
“Now, do you understand?” Yun Che raised his arms into the air and spoke with his brows lowered. As long as he lightly released his palm, the tremendous force coming from the Eternal Darkness Bone Sea would be enough to bury everything underneath.
