Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi
Chapter 912 - 910: Crushed in One Hand

"I shall not rest until the Immortal Buddhists are vanquished!" Xiao Yi declared with fiery eyes, envisioning the imperial city awash with flames and smoke, mountains of corpses and rivers of blood.

Tens of millions of innocents!

All slaughtered by Yang Ling under Huijing's control.

Between heaven and earth,

it seemed as if even the wind had frozen in place.

Only Xiao Yi's deep, angry roar and the crying of the infant in his arms could be heard, an infant not yet a year old, still swathed in swaddling clothes. He should have been cherished by his parents, adored by his family, without a care in the world.

But now...

He was an orphan.

Had Xiao Yi not arrived in time, this infant would have ended up as fodder for Yang Ling, manipulated by Huijing.

Hehehe…

Yang Ling, his face twisted grotesquely, stared at Xiao Yi, his consciousness, however, scream in helplessness and despair: "Help me... Xiao Yi, help me..."

The Yang Family code states, 'Heirs guard the nation's gates, the sovereign dies for the realm.'

None among the emperors of the Daqian Dynasty were tyrants; though not all were wise rulers, they were kind. After ascending the throne, Yang Ling worked diligently, always empathetic to his people's needs. If not for Xiao Yi's brilliance overshadowing everything, he might well have been praised as a wise ruler.

But now.

His chief ministers, his staunchest defenders, and tens of thousands of guards who fought to protect him within the imperial city.

And the tens of millions of innocents within the city…

All were killed by his own hand.

Even though it was all Huijing's manipulating, Yang Ling's consciousness had to watch, wide-eyed, as he slaughtered countless innocents, ruining the very imperial city he had vowed to protect and manage with his life.

His consciousness was on the verge of collapse.

Huijing and the other three were surprised by Xiao Yi's arrival; after exchanging glances, Huiji coldly sneered, "So you are Xiao Yi? We thought you'd forever hide away. It's surprising you dare to show yourself before us!"

"You all will die!" Xiao Yi declared, emphasizing each word.

When the Formation at the Xiaoshanhe Institute activated, Xiao Yi sensed it, knowing that Buddhist masters had descended to the Daqian Dynasty.

He left meditation at once.

Racing back with all his strength.

Regrettably…

He was still one step too late.

"Die?"

Huiji laughed loudly, shaking his head with contempt in his eyes, "Are all you Daqian Dynasty people so defiant? This little Emperor was also quite stubborn, refusing to disclose your whereabouts or cooperate with us to unlock the Formation of Xiaoshanhe Institute, and look what he became... this non-human, ghostlike entity..."

Huijing pressed his palms together, chanting Amitabha Buddha softly, "Master Xiao, I see deep sins within you. Surrender and come with us to the Buddhist sanctuary, and await judgment from the Buddhas of Spirit Mountain."

"Surrender now and live a bit longer. Resist, and this will be your fate!" Huiji pointed at the ruins behind him, the imperial city amidst roaring flames, then sneered sinisterly.

"Courting death!"

Xiao Yi suddenly spoke, uttering two words.

"Not good!"

Huijing's face suddenly changed, hastily alerting Huiji beside him.

Huiji confidently smiled, "No rush, Second Senior Brother, I want to see what he can do..."

Whoosh!

Huiji swiftly moved, flying towards Xiao Yi.

Both transformed into streaks of light.

In a muffled thud in the air, they brushed past each other.

In passing,

A Buddha face suddenly emerged behind Huiji, majestic and solemn, opening its mouth as a chain made of golden scriptures burst forth, clanging as it coiled towards Xiao Yi, nearly binding him completely.

At this critical juncture,

Xiao Yi did not even turn his head, but merely flicked his sword finger backward.

Buzz!

That seemingly ordinary finger suddenly gathered countless dazzling stars, converging at the fingertip and instantly turning into a shocking red light. This was the final move of the "Life-Stealing Thirteen Swords" from the notorious killer scholar.

However…

With Xiao Yi's current cultivation and strength, the power of this move was absolutely terrifying.

The chain collided with the sword finger in the void.

Like the tip of a needle against a stalk of wheat.

Instantly, a deafening roar erupted.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Amidst a series of harsh crashing noises, the chain was effortlessly shattered, and the light from the sword finger unstoppable.

Before Huiji could even react, he was already pierced through the chest by the finger. His entire chest was a gory mess, and one could even see the void behind through the hole in his chest.

Agh!

Huiji screamed horribly, blood spraying wildly from his mouth.

His body rapidly plummeted towards the ground.

Yet just before hitting the ground, a burst of Buddha light erupted from within Huiji, stopping his body half a meter from the earth. Clutching the bloody hole in his chest with one hand, his eyes filled with resentful poison, he stared dead at Xiao Yi, "You mongrel, it's been countless years since anyone dared to make this monk bleed. I will surely slaughter you…"

"Shut up!"

Xiao Yi, expressionless, lifted his right hand into the air.

Electricity coursed over his palm, crackling crisply.

Simultaneously.

Huiji's fierce expression instantly vanished, replaced by a look of shocked fury mixed with disbelief. His cultivation was also at the Earth Venerate Realm Eighth Layer Peak, and his combat strength was definitely formidable. Although he didn't control the power of heaven and earth, he was familiar with such force.

The instant Xiao Yi raised his hand, Huiji instinctively felt murderous intent surging from all directions.

The calm void suddenly bloomed with killing intent.

This was the power of heaven and earth!

"Not good!"

Huiji's expression drastically changed, intending to escape through the air, but found his body completely immobile.

Following that…

In the surrounding void, several purple-gold Thunderous Light Hands tightly grasped Huiji, who watched in despair as he was grabbed in the palm. Huiji's complexion greatly changed, feeling the threat of death and roared, "Let me go, Xiao Yi, release me…"

Huijing's face was extremely ugly as he also said, "Xiao Yi, stop!"

"Who do you think you are to order me around?"

Xiao Yi glanced at Huijing with a cold smirk, then fiercely clenched his hand.

The Thunderous Light Hand also instantly clenched into a fist.

Boom!

With a muffled sound.

Huiji was literally crushed to death, and when the light hand opened again, a mist of blood and flesh drifted down from the air.

At this moment…

Above the imperial city.

The only sounds were the soft sobbing of the innocent baby in Xiao Yi's arms and the rustling sound of the blood and flesh rain hitting the ground, alongside death-like silence.

A formidable being like Huiji was literally crushed to death by Xiao Yi.

"With such a young age but already at the realm of Heavenly Honor, no wonder even the teacher's descending Buddha body was destroyed by him!"

"If this child is not eliminated, he will undoubtedly become a great menace to our Buddhist sect…"

The three faces of Huijing looked at each other, all seeing the solemnity in each other's eyes towards Xiao Yi, as well as the undisguised intention to kill…
