Chapter 9 Love-Brained God 9: Slaying the Gods
"Mother, how cruel you are! I am your Hao'er! How could you do this to me?"
Ye Hao collapsed to the ground, clutching his chest wound, looking at the Empress with a pained expression.
The Empress's hand holding the Rainbow Sword trembled as she stared intently at Ye Hao, who had fallen to the ground, her lips quivering uncontrollably.
She had forgotten exactly how many Ye Hao she had killed; those phantoms, which had initially been wooden and stiff, had transformed into something agile and nimble.
He became more and more vivid, and more and more like Ye Hao.
At first, he couldn't speak and just attacked instinctively. Now, in addition to attacking, he also calls her "Mother" and begs for mercy.
The phantom's tone and expression were exactly the same as Ye Hao's. The Empress even felt that she had killed her own son with the Rainbow Sword.
"how so……"
Seeing the phantom Ye Hao crawling on the ground towards her, the Empress raised the Rainbow Sword high in her hand.
Phantom Night Hao looked up at the Empress Dowager and said in despair, "Mother, are you going to kill me?"
"Mother, it hurts so much... You've killed me so many times, it hurts so much..."
As Ye Hao spoke, golden divine blood gushed from his wound. He raised his blood-stained hand and gripped the Empress's skirt tightly.
"Mother, are you really going to kill me...?"
The Empress's body trembled violently, and the Rainbow Sword she held high could not be brought down.
"Hao'er..."
The Empress murmured a name, her eyes filled with immense grief. Her hands trembled more and more violently, and she almost dropped the Rainbow Sword.
Ye Hao looked up at her, a strange look appearing on his handsome face.
"Mother, you really can't bear to kill me..."
Before he finished speaking, he had already unleashed the purple lightning from his palm.
The two were very close at this moment. His attack caught the Empress off guard. Purple lightning entered her body, and the Empress let out a shrill scream. Then, she swung her Rainbow Sword down without hesitation.
Phantom Night Hao's head fell to the ground and rolled away into the distance. He was not completely dead yet. He grinned at the Empress who was spitting blood, revealing a creepy smile.
"Mother, you really can't bear to part with me~~~~"
The Empress was furious and suddenly swung her sword, unleashing a seven-colored sword aura carrying the power of thunder, smashing towards the head of the phantom Ye Hao.
His head didn't even utter a sound before it was annihilated by lightning and vanished completely.
After defeating Phantom Night Hao, the Empress clutched her chest and knelt on one knee.
Golden divine blood dripped from her mouth.
Since becoming a superstar, she has lived a life of luxury and has never suffered such a serious injury.
That person behind it all is truly ruthless; not only did they capture her son, but they also inflicted such severe harm on her.
Once she catches him, she will tear him to pieces and throw his soul into the demon realm, so that he will suffer the agony of being devoured by ten thousand demons.
Just as various thoughts were swirling in the Empress's mind, a new round of illusions was generated.
This time, the illusion was more real than before, and the diva even had the illusion that she was facing her own son.
But she nipped the thought in the bud as soon as it arose.
She had already learned her lesson from this illusion; no matter how realistic it was, it wasn't her son.
Ye Hao is her child, and he has a very deep affection for his mother. If it were the real Ye Hao, he would never lay a hand on her.
Having figured this out, the Empress did not hesitate any longer. She ruthlessly raised the Rainbow Sword and annihilated one phantom after another.
"Mother, it's me, it's your Hao'er..."
"Mother, why did you kill me? Mother!!"
"Mother, didn't you come to save me? Why are you killing me?"
The phantoms of Ye Hao kept questioning him, but the Empress ignored them all and strangled them time and time again.
It's all fake, it's all fake. Her son is still waiting for her to save him, and she can't waste her time getting entangled with the illusion.
It was unknown how many phantoms it had slain, until the Rainbow Sword, which shimmered with seven-colored divine light, was stained with golden blood, and the brilliant golden divine blood flowed continuously down the blade.
The diva was utterly exhausted. If it weren't for her belief in saving her son, she would probably have collapsed to the ground long ago.
After finally breaking free from the illusion, the Empress arrived at a house that looked extremely simple.
She immediately saw Ye Hao sprawled on the ground like a lump of mud. The Empress was only stunned for a moment, thinking that the figure on the ground was still an illusion. She looked at him warily, not believing that this illusion, which looked so different from her son, was really her Ye Hao.
Her son, Ye Hao, is handsome and has inherited eighty percent of her beauty. He is a beauty in all the world, so how could he be a piece of mud on the ground?
It's an illusion, it must be an illusion.
The Empress raised her sword, but hesitated to strike, unsure of what she was afraid of.
Just then, a voice rang out.
"Why don't you just kill him?"
The Empress suddenly looked up and slashed out with the Rainbow Sword in her hand.
However, the sword light of the Rainbow Sword had no effect on the opponent whatsoever; her attack couldn't even touch his body.
Missing her first attack, the Empress immediately retreated, standing there with her long sword in hand, looking warily at the person sitting there.
"I am Empress Yu Yao, Queen of the Phoenix Clan. Who are you? Why are you an enemy of my Heavenly Realm? Do you wish to wage war against the Heavenly Realm?"
Regardless of the other party's identity, his power was clearly superior to hers. The Empress was not a reckless person, and knowing that she was no match for him, she naturally would not make an enemy of him.
Although she was no match for her opponent, she would not tarnish her reputation as an empress. She revealed her identity, making him think twice before taking action against her.
Qi Wang raised an eyebrow and looked at the Empress.
She is indeed very beautiful, and just by looking at her appearance, you can tell the relationship between her and Ye Hao.
However, both of them were all show and no substance; their beautiful appearances meant nothing to Qi Wang.
"I am Qi Wang, an ordinary mortal from Peach Blossom Village."
Qi Wang looked at her and pointed to Ye Hao, who was lying on the ground like a pile of mud.
"Is this your son?"
Upon hearing this, the Empress's pupils contracted, and her gaze suddenly shifted to the mud-like figure.
Is he his own son?
How could this be? How could her son have become like this?
Seemingly understanding what the Empress was thinking, Qi Wang smiled and offered an explanation.
"He tried to kill me, but I killed him instead. I didn't do anything, but unfortunately, his soul was too fragile and couldn't withstand my attack."
This was an accident. Qi Wang really didn't intend to kill the Heavenly Prince at this moment. Unfortunately, the guy's soul was too fragile. Qi Wang only used a simple soul-searching technique, and the other party couldn't withstand it.
Who would have thought that a dignified prince of the Heavenly Realm would be so weak?
You really can't blame him.
However, upon hearing that her most beloved child had been treated so badly by Qi Wang, the Empress suddenly looked up and said, "Do you know that he is the Crown Prince of Heaven? How dare you be so audacious as to poison him! By doing this, you are making an enemy of Heaven! Aren't you afraid of divine retribution?"
Qi Wang said indifferently, "The Crown Prince of the Heavenly Realm? So what?"
"He wanted to kill me, and I was just fighting back. You don't think that just because he came to kill me, I should just sit back and let him kill me, right?"
"Your Majesty, when did you become so naive? Now I'm going to kill you. You can wait to be killed by me."
How could the Empress be provoked like this? Qi Wang's words stung her. She watched as her son slumped into a limp mess, still alive but with his soul barely aroused.
Fortunately, she was a member of the Phoenix Clan, and Phoenix Clan members can be reborn from the ashes after suffering serious injuries. As long as he is taken back to the Phoenix Clan's territory, he can be reborn from the ashes.
The origin of this person is unknown, but since he could commit such a heinous act against the Crown Prince of Heaven, he must be a demon from the Demon Realm.
Since he's a demon, there's no need to waste words with him.
The Empress knew she was no match for Qi Wang, but for Ye Hao's sake, she was determined to fight to the death.
The Heavenly Empress immediately burned her divine power, and a phoenix phantom appeared behind her. A clear phoenix cry rang out, and the seven-colored phoenix, carrying scorching heavenly fire, pounced towards Qi Wang.
The Empress did not linger in the fight and charged directly at Ye Hao, who was lying limp on the ground.
The most urgent task is not to kill Qi Wang, that devil, but to save her son. Why would the Empress want to fight?
But the moment her hand touched Ye Hao's arm, before she could do anything, Ye Hao's body burst into flames.
The flames instantly engulfed Ye Hao's body. Although the Empress was a phoenix who loved fire, the flames burned her skin the moment they touched her arm.
The pain penetrated deep into her soul. The Empress felt as if her soul was being pricked by needles. The extreme pain spread throughout her body. She did not want to let go, but the pain, which was almost destroying her soul, forced her to let go.
"ah!!!"
The Empress let out a scream and released her grip on Ye Hao's arm. The instant she let go, Ye Hao's entire body was engulfed in flames.
Ye Hao, who had already turned into a puddle of mud, didn't even struggle or scream before being burned to ashes.
Not only did Ye Hao, who possessed the bloodline of the Phoenix Clan, fail to achieve Nirvana, he didn't even leave behind a physical body or fragments of his soul.
It's gone, everything is gone.
Ignoring the pain in her arm, the diva knelt down and desperately reached out to scoop up the ashes.
"Where is it? Where is it? There's nothing here."
The Empress let out a blood-curdling wail as she searched futilely through the ashes.
No, no, none at all. Her son just vanished without a trace, leaving nothing behind.
how so?
Extreme pain enveloped her entire body, and the Empress felt as if her soul was about to collapse.
Her son is dead, how can she go on living?
