Chapter 93: Chapter 92: Thundering Eight Diagrams, The Emperor Appears

Thunder King!

He was a Sealing King Level existence within the Lie Tian Heavenly Country, a being of such extraordinary strength that not even the likes of Heavenly Sword Marquis or Fiery Flame Marquis could compare.

Not only that, the Thunder King also came from the Inner City of the Imperial City.

The Imperial City was divided into the Inner City and Outer City.

In the Outer City, numerous families thrived.

But in the Inner City, the number one cultivation sacred land of Lie Tian Heavenly Country—the Lie Tian Academy—was established. Not to mention, the Imperial Palace was also there.

Almost everyone who could enter the Inner City was either a powerful individual or someone with a noble identity.

The Thunder King belonged to that select group of powerful individuals.

The deaths of the five great Sealing Marquises, such as the Fiery Flame Marquis and the Heavenly Sword Marquis, had enraged the strong figures of the Imperial City’s Inner City, who decided to strike down and suppress the malignant foes!

The Thunder King was the first!

Boom——

Along with the Thunder King’s move, thunder roiled, a breath of destruction spread out, invoking the sensation of an apocalypse descending!

Above the sky dome, that dark hand was covered by endless thunder!

The sky full of blue thunder, dazzling and splendid!

"Worthy of being a Sealing King Level existence from the Inner City, such strength we all admire!"

In the Outer City, numerous Family Heads were shaken at this moment, their eyes filled with awe.

To them, the Thunder King was an unparalleled powerhouse that dominated the region.

Now that the Thunder King had made his move, his terrifying strength was on full display, indeed something they could not compete with.

"A Sealing King Level powerhouse, huh..."

Seeing the Thunder King’s action, Li Yuanzhou’s expression also turned solemn.

Sealing King Level powerhouses, such figures were overlords in the entire Southern Domain.

When characters of this level acted, they generally attracted a lot of attention.

"However, that mysterious senior managed to kill Vice President Yuan Qingyun, dealing with a Sealing King Level existence should definitely be possible!" Li Yuanzhou thought secretly to himself.

He couldn’t help but look towards Ye Xuan nearby.

As expected, on Ye Xuan’s face, he saw not a hint of panic. There was only endless calmness and tranquility, as if he didn’t consider the Thunder King worth noting at all.

This made Li Yuanzhou increasingly certain that the mysterious person behind Ye Xuan could definitely defeat the Thunder King!

Boom——

The collision between the endless thunder and the dark hand unleashed an earth-shaking rumble.

The Thunder King let out an angry roar, standing atop the sky, pushing out with a palm: "Thundering Eight Diagrams!"

Boom!

Endless Thunder Power surged from the Thunder King’s body, as if intending to destroy everything in heaven and earth, shaking one’s soul.

"Thundering Eight Diagrams?"

"That’s the Thunder King’s famed killer move!"

"It seems that the opponent is very strong, forcing the Thunder King to use such a technique."

At that moment, many people began to discuss and comment.

Thundering Eight Diagrams, that was the Thunder King’s renowned technique!

"To die under the Thunder King’s famed technique is a great fortune in itself for that guy."

"Hmph, daring to run wild in the Imperial City of my Lie Tian Heavenly Country, this is the consequence!"

Some people said this.

Meanwhile, the powerhouses within the Inner City of the Imperial City all looked up to the sky, their gaze exceedingly solemn.

They saw deeper than others did.

The reason the Thunder King had to use Thundering Eight Diagrams was that the initial strike hadn’t shaken his opponent at all.

Out of no choice, the Thunder King had to go all out.

If the Thundering Eight Diagrams still couldn’t handle the opponent, then the Thunder King might as well declare defeat.

And then, it would be their turn to act!

Thus, countless strong figures within the Inner City had all their eyes focused on the Thunder King.

Could this Thundering Eight Diagrams cause any tremor?

Boom——

Once Thundering Eight Diagrams was deployed, the sky was roiled with raging thunder like a sudden storm, ferocious and soul-shaking!

The endless flashes of lightning forced people to close their eyes, unable to look directly.

"The name of the move is quite impressive," Ye Xuan commented with a nonchalant smile upon seeing the Thunder King’s move.

He was knowledgeable about the ancient Thunder Techniques beyond count, and the Hand Palm Thunder he cultivated was one of the most insane techniques within the Thunder Dao.

In comparison, the Thunder King had merely grasped some of the basics of the Thunder Technique.

Thundering Eight Diagrams sounded frightening, but in Ye Xuan’s view, it was nothing more than that.

The origin of that dark hand, other than Ye Xuan, was known to no one.

Let alone the rudimentary Thunder Technique, even a practitioner of the Thunder Dao at the level of Great Success might not necessarily be able to shake that dark hand.

After all, that dark hand was Ye Xuan’s trump card.

Ye Xuan’s lips bore a faint smile as he casually stood with his hands in his pockets and his eyes half-closed.

Boom————

As the thunder light dissipated, everyone was finally able to see again.

"How, how is this possible?!"

However, when they looked up at the sky, their faces turned extremely grim, filled with disbelief.

The Thunder King did not hesitate to use his famous technique, the Thundering Eight Diagrams, yet he still couldn’t move the dark hand an inch.

The dark hand remained immovably vast, eclipsing the sky above, blocking the moonlight, like a supreme demon’s hand that induced despair in all who saw it.

The most shocked of them all had to be the Thunder King himself.

He stood in the sky, looking at that dark hand, with bitterness in his heart and shock in his eyes.

At the moment he made his move, he had exerted all his strength, yet he was unable to shake the hand, so he put forth his utmost effort to perform a move of the Thundering Eight Diagrams, not to destroy the dark hand but merely to make it tremble slightly.

Yet, the cruel reality was laid out before him.

His signature technique could not even cause the huge dark hand to flinch!

The gap between them was like a chasm.

"Even the Thunder King can’t threaten that person?!"

Within the Inner City, countless experts’ pupils shrank, and they were left shaken.

As an existence at the Sealing King Level and a cultivator of the Thunder Technique, the Thunder King’s attacks were said to be the strongest, yet even the Thunder King could not move that hand in the slightest!

This truly gave rise to a feeling of defeat.

"Could it be that we must simply allow someone to increase the slaughter within the boundaries of Lie Tian Heavenly Country’s Imperial City?" Another powerful being at the Sealing King Level said unwillingly.

It was too frustrating; someone so audacious at their doorstep, yet they were powerless against them.

"Could Zhou Youwei have really been taken in as a disciple by some mysterious figure?" This voice came from Lie Tian Academy, filled with astonishment and doubt.

In their view, this mysterious figure’s intervention must be because of Zhou Youwei.

After all, Zhou Youwei’s Dual Divine Body had previously caused a stir in the Southern Domain.

Many powerful forces’ old ancestors visited in person, hoping to take Zhou Youwei under their wing.

Yet it seemed that Emperor Immortal Sect had refused all recruitment efforts, keeping Zhou Youwei within the Sect.

This decision was fiercely debated by the people of Lie Tian Heavenly Country at the time, saying that Zhou Youwei did not recognize what was good for her.

Now, having witnessed the mysterious figure’s intervention, they secretly speculated that Zhou Youwei must have secretly taken a master and had someone to protect her.

Otherwise, why would this mysterious figure take action?

No one could have imagined that the so-called mysterious figure was actually a farce.

The dark hand was in fact manipulated by Ye Xuan!

Seeing the entire Imperial City fall into panic, Ye Xuan tugged at the corner of his mouth and calmly said, "No one else is going to make a move, huh? Then, I’ll just take this guy’s life."

As his words fell, the giant dark hand erupted in power, a palm strike racing down towards the Thunder King!

"Not good!"

All the experts who had been closely watching the dark giant hand changed their faces drastically, wanting to assist but realizing it was too late; they could only shout out a warning to the Thunder King.

"Thunder King, retreat quickly!"

The Thunder King’s face was filled with terror, and his complexion turned as pale as paper.

How he wished he could retreat, but the dark giant hand seemed to have a type of magic, rooting him in place and rendering him completely immobile, forcing him to watch as the dark giant hand descended!

"Am I going to die..." The Thunder King closed his eyes, a trace of bitterness on his lips.

He couldn’t believe he was about to die like this, not even knowing who his opponent really was.

It must be said, his existence at the Sealing King Level was a tragic one.

"Retreat!"

However, at that moment.

A furious shout suddenly rang out, like a thunderclap on a clear day, as if a decree had descended from on high, and the law followed the word!

Boom!

In that instant, a magnificent golden light erupted in the sky dome, trembling the heavens and the earth, illuminating the Nine Heavens.

"What is this..."

Countless people raised their heads to look and saw a towering figure standing atop the sky, exuding an aura of majesty, sanctity, and domineering presence!

One could not help but feel an impulse to submit upon seeing him.

"This is!"

"The Emperor!"

In that moment, the entire Imperial City was set ablaze with excitement.

The figure in the sky was none other than the Emperor of Lie Tian Heavenly Country!
