"No!"
The Crimson Flame Emperor sensed something and turned to flee in terror, but how could Xiao Chen possibly give him that chance?
The moment Xiao Chen finished speaking, the stellar power emitted from Neptune annihilated the Crimson Flame Emperor. This sudden turn of events shocked everyone present.
The power of stars is terrifying, especially the power accumulated on a star that has existed for countless years.
Even the current Star Profound Ape cannot mobilize such terrifying stellar power. Only Xiao Chen can use the Xuanfang Seven Star Array to mobilize the power of the seven stars on Earth.
However, Xiao Chen could only mobilize the stellar power of the other seven planets besides Earth.
The reason is that once the power of the stars is mobilized, the life force of the stars will cease to exist. In other words, if the power of the stars on Earth is mobilized, then Earth will become a dead star in a very short time.
In other words, Xiao Chen can still unleash six more attacks of this level. Therefore, upon witnessing this scene, the remaining Ice Emperor and Holy Emperor both showed extreme apprehension.
Even the myriad races and demonic beasts that were still engaged in battle couldn't help but stop.
"Xingxuan, go and help them take care of everyone. I'll handle those two!"
Xiao Chen looked at the Star Xuan Ape and spoke slowly. Upon seeing this, the Star Xuan Ape joined the battle below. With the addition of the Star Xuan Ape, the Earth side, which was originally at a disadvantage, quickly turned the tide and was defeated by the Star Xuan Ape and its group of demonic beasts.
They tried to escape but were blocked by the formation set up by Xiao Chen, so they could only watch helplessly as the Star Profound Ape slaughtered them all.
Meanwhile, the Frost Emperor and the Holy Emperor, who were confronting Xiao Chen, looked at him with apprehension. After a long while, the Holy Emperor finally couldn't hold back and broke the silence first.
"Young friend, may I ask your name?"
"Just call me Xiao Chen."
Xiao Chen did not refuse to answer the Holy Emperor's question, but instead spoke calmly.
Upon hearing this, the Holy Emperor took a deep breath before continuing.
"Young friend Xiao, right? We were wrong in this matter. How about we let it go? As compensation, we can tell you what you want to know."
Originally, the Holy Emperor did not intend to back down, but judging from the current situation, if things continued, they would definitely be killed by Xiao Chen.
If they've already been killed, wouldn't it be foolish to still cling to that little secret?
The Holy Emperor was certain that Xiao Chen wanted to know what happened in ancient times, so he used this as leverage to try and get Xiao Chen to give up.
Unfortunately, the Holy Emperor misjudged Xiao Chen's intelligence. In fact, Xiao Chen had already guessed most of what happened in ancient times. Although he didn't know as much as the Holy Emperor and others, he still knew a little.
So, thinking of this, Xiao Chen pretended to ponder for a while before slowly speaking.
"Tell me first, and if I'm satisfied, I'll spare your lives!"
"No, you must swear an oath to the heavens. We've said it, you must release us. Otherwise, we'd rather take this secret to our graves!"
Just then, the Ice Emperor stepped forward angrily and said that if Xiao Chen broke his promise, they would still kill him.
In response to the Ice Emperor's reaction, Xiao Chen merely sneered and slowly said.
"It's you who are begging for mercy now, not me. I'm not really interested in things from ancient times. If you don't talk about it, then let's see if I'll take action."
Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, the Holy Emperor and the Frost Emperor began to feel conflicted again, since it seemed to be true.
What if Xiao Chen really doesn't care? Who will they cry to then?
However, the Ice Emperor took a deep breath and looked at Xiao Chen with an extremely serious expression.
"I don't believe it. You can try it. If we really die, then you will never know the secrets of ancient times."
"Oh, since you want to die, then I'll send you on your way!"
To the Ice Emperor's surprise, Xiao Chen snapped his fingers, and in an instant, the stellar power on Mercury materialized into a terrifying force that directly attacked the Ice Emperor.
Ice Emperor: No, are you serious?
Before the Ice Emperor could react, he was directly killed by Xiao Chen's attack. This decisive and ruthless nature made the Holy Emperor standing to the side look fearful.
Unlike others who only make threats, Xiao Chen actually took action.
"Young friend Xiao, stop! I'll talk, I'll talk!"
The Holy Emperor couldn't care less about such things at this moment. Although he was the strongest among the three Tribulation Transcending Stage cultivators, even he wasn't confident he could kill the Crimson Flame Emperor and the Frost Emperor in one strike.
"Speak, and if I'm satisfied, I might spare your life."
Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, the Holy Emperor took a deep breath and then recounted everything he knew. After hearing the Holy Emperor's words, a trace of solemnity appeared on Xiao Chen's originally calm face.
Clearly, he hadn't expected that what happened in ancient times was so different from what he had imagined.
