Peerless Dragon Sovereign

Chapter 674 674: Fury

"Supreme Sect Leader, prepare yourself!"

The First Slaying Emperor roared ferociously and charged at Lu Daochang, his cultivation of the nine-fold heavens overshadowing the world, with terrifying power that made everyone's hearts shiver.

The black robe rustled as the First Slaying Emperor swung his hand, and endless golden light surged out like a golden ocean.

This golden light contained sharp Gold Attribute Spiritual Power, its sharpness even comparable to Sword Qi.

Lu Daochang glanced coldly at the First Slaying Emperor charging towards him, sneering. Though Qiu Huang was formidable and unbeaten by him, the First Slaying Emperor wasn't even at the pinnacle of the nine-fold heavens, so how could he be his match?

Just as Lu Daochang was preparing to strike, delivering a blow to topple the First Slaying Emperor and secure victory.

The eyes behind the First Slaying Emperor's mask suddenly gleamed cunningly, as the golden light turned back, and the killing strike that was supposed to attack Lu Daochang suddenly changed direction, heading towards Chu Nan.

This scene was too abrupt; no one expected that the First Slaying Emperor's target was not Lu Daochang at all, but Chu Nan atop the Dragon Beast's head.

The First Slaying Emperor's vision was extraordinarily keen; he had long noticed that Jiang Meier, Lu Daochang, Bai Youyou, and Zhi Polang—all stood together because of Chu Nan. Chu Nan was the link; as long as he was in the alliance, it wouldn't scatter.

But what if Chu Nan were no longer there?

The First Slaying Emperor believed that if Chu Nan dies, at least Bai Youyou would be freed from bondage, and Zhi Polang would no longer need to uphold the cooperation agreements.

Lu Daochang might be furious, but as long as he focused on escaping, he might just get away.

The martial artists of the Slaughter Emperor Sect often disappeared into nothingness; once they escaped, no matter how shocking your cultivation was, you couldn't find them.

Therefore, the First Slaying Emperor's target was clear: use Lu Daochang as a decoy, find a chance to slay Chu Nan, and then escape without a trace.

Then, all he had to do was wait—wait for the martial artists of the Slaughter Emperor Sect to hide, and wait for Lu Daochang to give up avenging Chu Nan, then all problems would solve themselves in an instant!

The golden light covered the sky as it rushed to kill; this move the First Slaying Emperor clearly planned long ago, and even if Chu Nan prepared in advance, he found it difficult to completely block.

After all, this was a powerful strike from a martial artist of the nine-fold heavens, easily capable of obliterating an eight-fold heavens martial artist.

Chu Nan's expression was grim as he was about to summon the Dragon Slaughter Tower to block this fatal blow, but he knew time was not on his side.

Jiang Meier and Lu Daochang both wanted to rescue him, but the golden light was only less than a breath away from Chu Nan.

Seeing Chu Nan's body about to be engulfed by this martial skill, at this critical moment.

The Dragon Beast at Chu Nan's feet suddenly lifted its neck, tossing him off its head, using its own body to block this terrifying attack for him.

Crack!

The golden light struck down on the gigantic body of the Dragon Beast; it was too fearsome. Just a single encounter caused its blood and scales to explode open.

The massive body became riddled with holes; despite being dozens of miles long, it was no match for the terrifying deadly strike of a nine-fold heavens martial artist.

Rumble!

The Dragon Beast let out a mournful wail, its body almost cleaved in two by the golden light.

Its massive body began to fall amidst booming sounds, crashing heavily into a deep pit under the horrified gazes of all martial artists in Blood Evil City.

The once infinitely potent aura started to dissipate like a dying firewood pile.

Thrown out by the Dragon Beast, Chu Nan saw this scene, rage immediately seething in his eyes. He flew slowly to the Dragon Beast's side, finding it nearly killed by this strike. Anger surged even deeper in his heart.

Though the Dragon Beast was his slave, the wound just now was for blocking the attack for him, and Chu Nan's character could never ignore such a sacrifice.

He hurriedly took out precious elixirs brought from the True Martial Holy Hall, crushing them and sprinkling them onto the Dragon Beast's wounds to heal it.

Although the Dragon Beast lost its fighting ability, the effect of these elixirs was enough to keep its life hanging on.

After doing all this, Chu Nan turned to face the First Slaying Emperor with an angry glare, saying coldly: "Sect Leader, Jiang Meier, do not intervene later; I will personally kill this man!"

Chu Nan's killing intent seemed almost tangible; in his rage, he even declared that he would fight the First Slaying Emperor alone and kill him.

Lu Daochang and Jiang Meier thought they heard wrong—this was the First Slaying Emperor, a nine-fold heavens powerhouse. What cultivation did Chu Nan have to think he could personally kill him?

The two were about to stop the seemingly impulsive Chu Nan, but the First Slaying Emperor laughed wildly and said: "Worthy of being the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall's youngest master, truly courageous!"

"Since you want to kill me alone, then come on; I can promise no other slaying emperors will intervene."

The eyes behind the First Slaying Emperor's mask showed excitement; he was just worried about missing the opportunity to kill Chu Nan in one strike, and now Chu Nan actually offered himself.

This was a tremendous fortune for the First Slaying Emperor; even if Chu Nan was strong, could he be stronger than the nine-fold heavens?

At this moment, Chu Nan's actions seemed no different from seeking death, didn't they?

The other slaying emperors shared the same thought as the First Slaying Emperor; they frowned, pondering how they could still cooperate with the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall given the present situation.

Even if the First Slaying Emperor truly killed Chu Nan, he wouldn't be a match for the Supreme Sect Leader.

After killing Chu Nan, the First Slaying Emperor might escape, but they would suffer miserable consequences…

Upon weighing their options, the martial artists of the Slaughter Emperor Sect felt bitterness rising in their hearts; ultimately, they chose to stand with the First Slaying Emperor.

After all, the First Slaying Emperor was one of their own, and in such a situation, they had to take a stand.

Yet at the same time, all the slaying emperors began to prepare to flee; as soon as Chu Nan died, they would turn and run.

To them, as long as they didn't hit him when he's down, the First Slaying Emperor would be grateful to the heavens.

"Hall Master..."

"Chu Nan, you're too impulsive."

Jiang Meier and Lu Daochang both tried to persuade Chu Nan to give up his idea of challenging the First Slaying Emperor, as after all, this was a formidable nine-fold heavens martial artist.

However, Chu Nan just waved his hand and said: "No need to say more, since I dare challenge, naturally I have confidence. As long as I'm ready, the mere First Slaying Emperor will surely become a ghost under my sword!"

After saying this, the angry Chu Nan soared up, standing in the air, staring at the First Slaying Emperor with piercing eyes: "First Slaying Emperor, I don't know who you are, but are you ready to meet your death?"

His words were extremely domineering; although not a nine-fold heavens martial artist, his tone was akin to a supreme strongman, as if even a nine-fold heavens powerhouse was insignificant before him!
