"Old Luo!"
Xiao Tianzuo barely managed to stand up, looking at Luo Bailian, whose black armor was shattered and whose limbs were twisted, held in Zhang Santian's hand, and was filled with extreme grief and anger.
Looking at the Great King, Xiao Tianzuo's eyes grew even bloodshot, yet he knew all too well how could he possibly be a match for Zhang Santian. A helpless rage and hatred for Zhang Santian intertwined within him.
Why!
Why is it that every time I'm happy, this person always manages to shatter everything?
A village appeared before his eyes, the small mountain village that was already in dire straits, yet had raised him, the wild child he had taken in, with food from a hundred families.
The village chief, with a kind face, rubbed his head, while Grandma Yang often grabbed a handful of fried soybeans to eat as a snack.
Mr. Liu, who taught him to read and write but often slapped his hands; Sanpang, who went into the mountains with him to dig for wild vegetables but was never full; and Gousheng, who stole sugar from home to share with himself.
And then there's Xiao Cui, the porcelain doll who follows him around all day, grabbing his patched clothes whenever she gets nervous, saying she wants to marry him when she grows up.
The figures flashed before Xiao Tianzuo's eyes, finally settling on the scene of the shattered land.
A mere aftershock reduced that small mountain village of several hundred people to dust before his very eyes, leaving only piles of blood and rotting flesh behind his familiar and beloved people...
Xiao Tianzuo would never forget that scene; he wished he could beat the Great King Zhang Santian to death day and night.
Later, while fighting with wild dogs for food, he encountered the awakened Empress of the Desolate Heaven and embarked on the path of cultivation.
Before embarking on the path of cultivation, he did not understand Zhang Santian's power, but when he stepped into the gate of cultivation to seek revenge, he discovered how vast the gap was.
So he kept this hatred buried in his heart, because he knew it was useless to say it out loud. No one in this world could help him, not even the Desolate Heavenly Empress, who was a remnant soul.
Now that Senior Huangtian has been resurrected, he has a powerful master, a kind master's wife who takes good care of him, and Lao Luo, who is like a close friend to him despite their age difference.
He felt the warmth of home once again, the feeling of that small mountain village from back then.
And now, this person who once shattered his family has reappeared during his happiest moment, wanting to destroy his home once again.
Xiao Tianzuo could no longer suppress the hatred and killing intent in his heart!
"Aaaaaaah, I'm going to beat you to death!"
Blood-red tears fell, Xiao Tianzuo's face contorted with rage, and the tens of thousands of giant elephant particles within his body fully awakened at this moment, rushing towards Zhang Santian like a madman.
Even though his power was like a firefly compared to the bright moon in front of Zhang Santian, who had gathered the heavens and earth as his own, he no longer had any intention of gathering his soul. At this moment, he only had one thought.
Kill this beast who disrupts my peaceful life every time he shows up!
Xiao Tianzuo's roar also made Zhang Santian, who was feeling the ominous power emanating from Luo Bailian's black armor, breathe a sigh of relief and say somewhat coldly:
"I originally intended to finish comprehending this power before killing you, but since you sought your own death, I will completely eliminate this threat!"
Zhang Santian was furious at being interrupted from his enlightenment. What angered him even more was that a mere ant at the Refining Essence stage dared to rush towards him and even said he would kill him.
The king must not be insulted!
After saying that, Zhang Santian's sharp-mouthed, monkey-faced expression turned ferocious again, and he raised his other hand, making a fist towards Xiao Tianzuo who was rushing towards him.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The void emitted a mournful hum, and the entire world seemed to be stirred up by an invisible force.
Endless power began to gather frantically, forming a gigantic, invisible hand in the blink of an eye, like a divine punishment hand, which fiercely grabbed at Xiao Tianzuo below.
This giant hand was so large that it almost encompassed half the sky, covering everything and blotting out the sun, completely enveloping Xiao Tianzuo, leaving him with no possibility of escape or resistance.
As the invisible hand descended, an indescribable, terrifying pressure also came down, making everyone around gasp for breath, their faces pale and their bodies trembling.
"Why!"
Looking at the giant hand that blotted out the sky above his head, Xiao Tianzuo's expression turned ferocious, and a look of despair flashed in his eyes. He knew he was finished and there was no way he could escape from the other party's grasp.
He was filled with resentment. Why did he have to die here just when his life was getting on track? He hadn't grown up yet, he hadn't helped Senior Huangtian avenge himself, he hadn't had a heart-to-heart talk with his master, he hadn't even had a drink with Lao Luo...
But at the same time, a sense of relief also surfaced in his heart. If he died, Zhang Santian would probably leave.
That way, Senior Huangtian and his master and mistress wouldn't run into this guy, and they should be prepared even if they wanted to avenge themselves.
But he still hoped they wouldn't seek revenge for him; he, Xiao Tianzuo, was enough to die alone.
"You're nothing but ants, die!"
Zhang Santian's face was icy cold, his eyes flashing with ruthless light. He manipulated the invisible hand, crushing Xiao Tianzuo into dust as if he were crushing an ant.
However, at that moment, a mysterious and powerful aura suddenly appeared in this world.
The next moment, a holy and immaculate spear, blazing with white flames, suddenly appeared, piercing through space at an incredible speed and instantly arriving in front of the invisible hand.
This spear was pure white, as sacred as jade, and radiated a dazzling light. Its tip was ablaze with white flames, and it seemed as if the music of the gods was playing in the heavens and earth.
"Pfft!"
With a soft sound, the holy spear pierced through the invisible hand without any resistance. The white flames on the spear tip spread rapidly like a plague, devouring the entire hand in the blink of an eye.
Even though the spear pierced through the invisible hand, its momentum did not diminish. It transformed into a dazzling white rainbow, carrying an extreme will that could destroy the heavens and earth and pierce through everything. Like a thunderbolt from the heavens, it went straight for Zhang Santian, whose expression had changed drastically.
Zhang Santian instantly flung the dying Luo Bailian behind him. He didn't want the ominous aura on the black armor to be destroyed by the spear. Now, his free hands crossed in an instant in the face of the fierce spear, and his lean arms were raised like shields to meet the holy spear head-on!
Clang! Bang!
The sound of metal clanging resounded at this moment, followed by a tremendous roar. Although the holy spear pierced Zhang Santian's iron arm as if it were a metal weapon cutting through flesh, the divine power on it still forced him to retreat dozens of feet before he could barely stabilize himself.
Zhang Santian also exerted force with both arms at this moment, shattering the holy spear, but only a small bloodstain appeared on the iron arm that was hit.
This angered him:
"What kind of scoundrel dares to ambush me, the king!"
"That ugly creature with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks dares to call itself king?"
A cold, indifferent yet domineering voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth, causing Xiao Tianzuo's face to light up with joy.
