Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi
Chapter 867 - 865: Sword Beheading the Heavenly Venerate

"Kill!"

A single word, "kill," sounded like a thunderclap on a clear day, surpassing the reverberation of the morning bell and the evening drum.

The deafening cry of "kill" boomed in the heavens, rolling and echoing across the Milky Way, forcefully drowning out the raging waves of the celestial river.

Boom!

Xiao Yi took a step forward, and immediately beneath his feet, a vacuum was formed.

Upon the turbulent celestial river, a massive and bottomless ravine appeared, with water from the tall riverbanks cascading down tumultuously, while Xiao Yi charged through the chasm at breakneck speed.

The raging Sword Qi circling his body was even more dazzling than a meteor shower.

Clang, clang, clang!

Under the envelopment of circulating Sword Qi, the oncoming lance glows and Sword Qi were utterly shattered, defending away from his body.

Zhou Chen and his companion's fierce onslaught couldn't even get close to him.

The three of them fought fiercely together.

Sword light, lance glow.

Simultaneously, they collided above this section of the celestial river, unleashing an unparalleled destructive storm.

Boom, boom, boom!

After a series of roars comparable to the thundering of heaven, the celestial river burst into astonishing waves spanning hundreds to thousands of meters with numerous whirlpools converging and undercurrents surging incessantly, refusing to subside. The splashing spouts of water did not fall for a long time.

"Heavenly King Covers the Earth!"

Zhou Chen raised his long spear like a dragon swinging its tail, smashing down with the overpowering force of a tyrant.

Xiao Yi raised his sword to block above his head.

Clang!

Amidst the deafening roar, the sword and spear crossed in the void, sparking blinding flashes of light.

Almost simultaneously...

Wang Chuantian's assault also came from the side.

On the Emperors Sword, a brassy Sword Qi fluctuated and ebbed, gathering mysterious runes and carrying a dim yellow ribbon of light, slashing directly toward Xiao Yi's waist.

Xiao Yi's arm vibrated, covered in a flash of lightning.

Golden radiance sheathed his entire body.

The Wind Thunder armor adhered to his body, and with a thunderous clash, it managed to block the strike. But the force of this sword was extraordinary, cutting a rift into the seemingly invincible Wind Thunder armor, narrowly stopping short of splitting Xiao Yi open.

Xiao Yi's brows furrowed, and as he let out a cold huff, he reached forward with his left hand.

Purple-gold lightning, like a dragon, crackled over his palm and then condensed into a purple-golden Thunder Spear between his hands. He thrust forward with the spear, this weapon being stronger with each additional inch of length.

Upon impact with the Thunder Spear, golden rings condensed at its tip.

Circled by the rings,

The speed of the Thunder Spear increased manifold, appearing like a streak of lightning in the void, leaving only a trail of golden light before piercing through Wang Chuantian's abdomen, the bloody spear tip emerging from his lower back.

After the crackling roar,

A scorch of burnt flesh wafted from the wound.

Hiss!

Wang Chuantian sucked in a breath of cold air in pain, swung the Emperors Sword to sever the Thunder Spear, and hastily retreated, glowering at Xiao Yi with a sinister expression, "You ruthless brat; I underestimated you. If my reaction were not swift enough, I might have fallen at your hand..."

"You're celebrating too early!"

Xiao Yi watched Wang Chuantian with a mocking smile.

That handsome face with a smile sent chills down Wang Chuantian's spine while mentally cursing his luck, he saw Xiao Yi suddenly clench his fist.

Almost simultaneously...

Wang Chuantian's complexion drastically changed, his face flushed with anger, replaced by shock and despair, "Damn it, ah..."

He barely spoke before the excruciating pain from his waist made him gasp for air.

Crack!

Crack, crack, crack...

The part of the Thunder Spear that had pierced his body and remained inside now reacted as Xiao Yi clenched his fist, triggering its energy.

In an instant,

From his wound, bursts of crackling sounds resounded, and countless arcs and flashes of lightning surged out. With a flash of golden light and a muffled boom, a large chunk of Wang Chuantian's waist was blown away.

```

"Roar..."

Wang Chuantian let out a hysterical scream, retreating in a panic while clutching his waist.

```

```

Xiao Yi's eyes narrowed into slits, as a fierce light spat wildly, "Thinking of leaving now? It's already too late!"

```

```

On his arms, blue veins popped like fierce dragons.

```

```

Strength surged to its peak.

```

```

With a powerful push upward, he clashed with a clang against Zhou Chen's assault, a glint of cold light flashing through Zhou Chen's eyes. Knowing Xiao Yi intended to pursue Wang Chuantian, and having launched their attacks simultaneously, Zhou Chen certainly wouldn't allow Xiao Yi to free his hands at this moment.

```

```

"Fat chance!"

```

```

Zhou Chen's face twisted into a ferocious snarl, and behind him rose the sound of six arms appearing with a puff, puff.

```

```

Eight arms in total, each brandishing a blade.

```

```

Eight-Armed Demon Embodiment!

```

```

This was Zhou Chen's Martial Dao Fasxiang, his voice thundering furiously, "Stay right there!"

```

```

"Martial Dao Fasxiang is indeed not bad, but... you think you can stop me?" sneered Xiao Yi with disdain, his sword soaring to the heavens, unleashing a resplendent Sword Intent, "Sword Twenty-Three!"

```

```

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

```

```

In the space between heaven and earth, a circular sword pattern emerged.

```

```

Above and below, facing each other.

```

```

In distant accord!

```

```

Creating a realm of swords.

```

```

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

```

```

From the edges of the two sword patterns, a series of formidable sword shadows descended in unison, connecting to form a line that trapped Zhou Chen squarely within the realm of swords.

```

```

"This is bad..."

```

```

Zhou Chen swung his eight arms wildly, frantically striking against the confines of the sword realm.

```

```

Yet the sword light was so astonishing he couldn't break free for the moment.

```

```

"It's over..."

```

```

As Zhou Chen furiously attacked the sword realm, his eyes had turned blood-red, glaring in shock and anger towards Wang Chuantian's direction.

```

```

Wang Chuantian shuddered as he was healing.

```

```

A chill of death locked onto him in this instant.

```

```

This sensation of death made him break out in a deathly cold sweat.

```

```

Gurgle!

```

```

Wang Chuantian swallowed his saliva instinctively and, without any hesitation, dodged to the side. But as he moved, Xiao Yi's actions were faster. With a motion of his longsword, he brought forth two sword lights, stirring the waters of the celestial river.

```

```

Transforming into two vast, roaring water dragons, they charged toward Wang Chuantian amidst their thunderous roars.

```

```

"Damn it..."

```

```

With one hand pressed to his wound, Wang Chuantian struck out with his palm, his icy chi freezing both water dragons amidst a crackling noise.

```

```

Wang Chuantian had just caught his breath when, at that moment, Xiao Yi's figure instantly appeared before him. The blinding light of the near sword light made it impossible for him to open his eyes, and a terror rose from his spine to the very top of his head!

```

```

"Wang Chuantian, surrender your life!"

```

```

Xiao Yi's voice erupted in a dragon-like roar.

```

```

The longsword cleaved through the air.

```

```

A blade flash, enduring as eternity, freezing all in its path!

```

```

Whoosh!

```

```

This sword seemed to tear through the dark brightness, much like the morning sun at dawn.

```

```

Enveloped in a radiantly splendid light.

```

```

This sword, gathering the countless energies of heaven and earth, carried an enshrouding divine force, slicing through Wang Chuantian with a splurch.

```

```

"No..."

```

```

Wang Chuantian screamed to the heavens.

```

```

The merciless sword light sliced open his body, and the divine force upon it locked his Primordial Spirit with black chains. Amidst the chaos of a whirling storm, Wang Chuantian's Primordial Spirit was ground into oblivion, disappearing into the skies above.

```

```

Great Celestial, felled by the sword!

```

```

In that moment...

```

```

Heaven and earth fell silent; all the powerhouses present watched in dumbstruck awe...
