The Purple Sky God Emperor finally couldn't bear the oppression anymore. He knelt down with a thud, and banged his forehead heavily on the ground of the God's Court, shouting in a trembling voice.
"Li—Territory Lord!
From now on, Zixiao is willing to serve you as his master. Please spare my life, Lord!"
His voice echoed in the Divine Court. Upon seeing this, the other Divine Emperors also knelt down with their foreheads on the ground, not daring to look up.
"Please spare my life, Territory Lord!"
The cries of pleas for mercy from the three thousand God Emperors rose one after another, without any trace of their former majesty and arrogance.
"Zixiao, I gave you a chance, but you didn't know how to cherish it."
Li Lingge's voice was very soft, but it made Zixiao God Emperor tremble all over.
"Zixiao knows his mistake!"
The Purple Sky God Emperor hurriedly looked up and forced a flattering smile on his face.
"From now on, Zixiao is willing to serve the Divine Lord at his beck and call, and will never have second thoughts!"
Li Lingge looked at him quietly, a sneer slowly appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"Yeah?"
He raised his hand, spread his five fingers, and an invisible force instantly enveloped the Purple Sky God Emperor.
"Territory Lord?!"
The Purple Sky God Emperor struggled in fear, but found that he could not move at all.
Li Lingge's palm slowly tightened, and he firmly grasped the head of the Purple Sky God Emperor, with his knuckles deeply embedded in the flesh.
"You seemed happy to see me die?"
The pupils of the Purple Sky God Emperor suddenly shrank, and the flattery on his face instantly turned into fear.
"No! No! I—"
laugh--
Before he could finish his words, the Xuanyuan Sword had already swept across.
The expression of the Purple Sky God Emperor froze, his head was lifted high, the cut on his neck was as smooth as a mirror, and golden divine blood gushed out, spilling onto the white jade floor of the divine court, which was shocking.
Boom!
The head fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and finally stopped at the feet of the God of Fire.
On that face, there was still trace of the fear and disbelief before death.
There was deathly silence in the temple.
Three thousand God Emperors knelt on the ground with their foreheads pressed to the ground, not daring to make even a sound when breathing.
The Purple Sky God Emperor is dead!
Just one sword, no chance to beg for mercy!
Li Lingge slowly retracted the Xuanyuan Sword, his eyes swept over the kneeling gods, his voice cold:
"From now on, I will be the Lord of the Divine Court. Who is for and who is against?"
No one answered.
The heads of the three thousand God Emperors lowered even lower, almost burying themselves in the ground.
Everyone knows that the owner of this star field has changed!
Let alone becoming the Lord of the Divine Court, even if Li Lingge became the Lord of the Star Domain, who would dare to oppose him?
Under the terrifying pressure, the God of Fire was the first to speak.
"We bow to the Divine Emperor Li!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone raised their heads slightly and looked towards the God of Fire.
No one expected that the usually arrogant God of Fire could be so flexible.
However, they immediately rushed to shout in unison.
"We bow to the Divine Emperor Li!"
"We bow to the Divine Emperor Li!"
"We bow to the Divine Emperor Li!!!"
…
Deep in the Star Domain Palace, thousands of soul lamps are burning quietly in the Soul Tablet Hall.
Each lamp represents the life fire of a powerful person in the star field, and on the gilded jade platform at the highest point, the soul tablet with the word "Haotian" engraved in purple gold makes a crisp sound at this moment.
Click, click——
The white-bearded priest who was on his routine inspection suddenly looked up and dropped the whisk in his hand to the ground in shock.
He staggered to the jade steps, the spider-web-like cracks on the soul tablet reflected in his cloudy pupils.
"No! This is impossible!"
When the last crack ran through the entire card, the old priest who had guarded the Soul Palace for a hundred thousand years collapsed to the ground.
"It's broken, the Haotian Soul Plate is broken!"
The sound waves hit the restrictions in the hall and bounced back, forming layers of echoes under the dome.
The twelve golden-armored divine guards on duty outside the hall were the first to rush in. When they saw the purple-gold fragments all over the ground, their pupils dizzied.
"Hurry... hurry and call the high priests!" the old priest grabbed the divine guard's cloak and shouted, "Notify the Moon Goddess! Quick!"
A rapid bell suddenly rang throughout the temple. This was the bell of the dead god that had not rung for millions of years.
The three high priests who were discussing the Dao simultaneously crushed the teacups in their hands, and the oldest high priest's beard trembled.
"Nine rings...something happened to the Territory Lord!"
When everyone rushed to the Soul Tablet Hall, the soul tablet that symbolized the supreme authority in the star field suddenly shattered.
Purple gold fragments splashed at everyone's feet, and each piece reflected a pale face.
The high priest in the star-patterned robe suddenly knelt down and picked up a piece of debris with trembling hands.
"The Territory Lord has already reached the Half-Step Eternal Realm. Who in this star region can kill him?"
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of rings and pendants outside the hall.
The Moon Goddess, dressed in a moon-white Liuxian dress, stumbled into the hall, not even noticing that the jade hairpin in her hair was askew.
When she saw the fragments on the ground, she froze in place as if struck by lightning.
"Father...your honor!"
She staggered to the jade table, grabbed a handful of fragments with her bare hands and held them against her chest.
The cold touch instantly made tears burst out, and large teardrops hit the fragments, stirring up the remaining divine power on them with dots of fluorescence.
"Goddess, I mourn for you."
Just as the high priest was about to step forward, he was suddenly knocked back three steps by a ray of moonlight divine power.
“Who is it?!”
The Moon Goddess suddenly turned around, her long black hair dancing wildly in the wind.
"Who on earth killed my father?!"
The temperature in the hall dropped suddenly, and ice crystals formed on the corners of everyone's robes.
The usually calm Second Priest of the Star Domain now had his hair and beard standing on end. His skinny hands like eagle claws stretched out from the wide sleeves of his robe, with densely packed chains of cause and effect entwined between his fingers.
"Gather the soul and trace the shadow, all things return to their true nature!"
