Chapter 599: My Dear Little Brother
The icy tundra was swept by howling winds.
In front of Yaoyue, Zhang Shouren raised his hand and grabbed a dying saint from the Ice Clan, bringing him to his side. Then, he covered the saint with his dark holy laws, and the saint immediately seemed to be struggling in the mud, and soon stopped moving.
This is the plundering of the Holy Path's power; Zhang Shouren's strength has increased once again.
As the law, as filthy as mud, returned to his body, the saint became a corpse, and before falling, he was smashed into pieces by Zhang Shouren's palm.
"This monster..."
Inviting the moon made her hair stand on end.
This was the first time she had encountered such bizarre methods since being summoned by the Holy Emperor. Or rather, Zhang Shouren could no longer be called human; he was an absolute anomaly.
“Ordinary Saintly experts cannot satisfy my appetite. Inviting Moon, are you ready? Experience it.”
Zhang Shouren approached with a ferocious expression.
Yaoyue's eyebrows shot up, "Die!"
Boom!
The intertwining of flames and darkness instantly divided the vast plateau into day and night.
The two streams of Great Sage energy clashed for a few breaths, and then Yaoyue spat out a mouthful of blood and was kicked onto the plateau.
She lay struggling in the snow, her shoulder blades split open, and the bright red mark between her eyebrows suddenly dimmed.
Click, click, click!
Zhang Shouren strode over, his dark, holy laws flowing down his skin, wrapping around Yaoyue's neck like a tail and lifting her up.
"Hehehe, is this the strength of the Seven Stars of Great Xia? Weak, too weak! Ahahaha!"
Zhang Shouren unleashed a furious barrage of punches, nearly shattering Yaoyue's body. Her flesh was a bloody mess, and she was unable to utter a sound as her neck was strangled, squeaking loudly. Holy blood gushed from her mouth like a fountain.
"Kill you, kill you!"
"I will take care of the remaining seven stars, and from then on, Great Xia will be in my hands!"
Zhang Shouren was like a madman; his face was covered in dark, holy laws that obscured his features, making him look more like a mud monster.
"Zhang Shouren!"
The Imperial Heavenly Sound exploded in the sky.
Zhang Shouren subconsciously looked up, and Chen Futu kicked him in the face. He screamed and flew a hundred feet away, carving a long furrow in the snowfield.
It was Chen Futu who arrived with Xiaobai and Dian Wei.
Yaoyue collapsed to the ground with a thud, her vision blurring as she saw the three of them.
Chen Futu didn't have time to think much. Seeing the black poisonous mist swirling around her, he used a drop of Dragon Emperor's blood to help her remove the poison. Her spirits improved somewhat, but her injuries were too severe.
Chen Futu then stuffed another sacred healing medicine made by Wen Ruyu into her mouth, and she struggled to sit cross-legged to heal her injuries.
"Chen Futu!"
Zhang Shouren was furious, twisting his neck like a hideous monster.
Chen Futu's expression turned solemn. He should have broken Zhang Shouren's neck with his kick, but Zhang Shouren suddenly lifted the dislocated head back into place with both hands, as if only dark skin covered the neck and there were no bones inside.
Dian Wei brandished his twin halberds and shouted, "My lord, what is this thing? It's disgusting!"
Little White, biting into a chicken leg, looked disgusted. "Ugh, disgusting! Little White can't eat any more meat."
"Chen Futu, you've finally arrived!"
Zhang Shouren stood still, bent over, stretched his head, and roared.
Chen Futu smirked, put his hands behind his back, and stepped into the air. The imperial dynasty's fortune gathered around him, and he was as domineering as ever: "Who do we have here? It's my good sworn brother. It's only been a short time since we last met, and you've become so slovenly."
"Chen Futu!"
"What are you barking like a dog? I'm not deaf."
"Chen, Fu, Tu—"
Zhang Shouren's roar stirred up a vortex of blizzards thousands of feet high on the plateau. The holy aura on his body rose into the sky like black flames, which was the ultimate anger and resentment.
Chen Futu said calmly, "Do you think you're Broly? You're all baring your teeth and brandishing your claws, quite the imposing manner. Come, let me see if you've improved."
"kill!"
At this moment, Zhang Shouren charged forward with overwhelming resentment. The chaotic flow of true energy on his body was terrifying to the extreme, actually reaching the level of an ancient saint.
Just as Xiaobai and Dianwei were about to step forward, Chen Futu shook his head and decisively activated his Humanity Domain, saying, "Then let me show you the Laws of the Emperor's Way."
Chen Futu flicked his fingertips and pointed his sword.
With a whoosh, the newly comprehended Law of Destruction enveloped him, and the berserk Zhang Shouren was instantly sliced into countless holes and sent flying across the plateau, black blood splattering everywhere.
"Oh, not bad."
"Waaaah, Chen Futu, I'll never forgive you!"
Zhang Shouren's body, which he had cultivated through some unknown technique, twisted and writhed in extreme rage.
He simply couldn't understand why, even though he was so strong, he still couldn't defeat his beloved little brother.
Chen Futu ignored him and glanced sideways at the icy tundra. The Ice Clan's array patterns had already been broken, revealing its miserable state. Chen Futu asked the system, "What exactly happened?"
Ding!
[Anecdote detected: A Requiem for Crime and Punishment]
"So it turns out that when I was in the Ice Clan last time, you reminded me of some interesting stories, but my cultivation level wasn't high enough. It turns out it was Zhang Shouren."
Everything has a cause and effect; please make your choice, host.
The system unusually merged the anecdotes and choices.
"Incline towards cultivation."
[The Ice Clan's array patterns have shattered, and turmoil is about to erupt beneath the Onon Sea. This reward cannot be favored.]
[1. Choosing to decisively kill Zhang Shouren will reward the host with a random wisp of Imperial Rule.]
[2. Choose to shoot down Zhang Shouren and send him to the bottom of the Onon Sea, let them fight like dogs, and the host will be rewarded with one top-secret clue about leaving the continent]
[3. Choose to retreat with Yaoyue, gather all the strong to form a grassland defense line to stop the riot, and reward the host with the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow upgraded to a Quasi-Emperor Artifact]
"I choose two."
Chen Futu had a premonition that this clue was very important, concerning the top secrets that those powerful forces were vying for. If he could obtain it, the benefits would be unimaginable.
[Selection successful. Top-secret clue for leaving the continent, Part 1. Please review.]
"Check."
As soon as Chen Futu had a thought, some fragments appeared in his mind.
It's about the Onon Sea. There's an area in the sea covered with array patterns that imprisons many people, the very group suppressed by the Ice Clan.
These people seemed to be bound by black chains, their expressions were either crazy or mad, crying or laughing, and even the weakest of them were Saint-level, including many Great Saints, and even beings that Chen Futu could not see through.
Their figures were numerous, and for a moment it seemed as if they were worshipping somewhere.
Chen Futu subconsciously looked towards the place where they were worshipping, and saw the ancient temple that had sunk into the depths of the Onon Sea.
"Is that the Emperor's corpse? They're worshipping the Emperor's corpse!"
Chen Futu never expected that Lizhou held such a great secret, or rather, that the fate of these people was related to the lost treasure of Lizhou.
"Chen Futu, prepare to die!"
As Chen Futu was pondering, Zhang Shouren arrived before him.
"roll."
Chen Futu frowned, his sword finger pointing in front of him. In an instant, the rules of destruction erupted, and the latter was sent flying backward again, black blood staining the icy plain.
