“Father!”
When Qing Jiu Zhen saw the bodies of Qing Shengyu and his Uncle Emperor helplessly falling from the sky, he cried out in immense sorrow.
Without hesitation, he rushed to Qing Shengyu’s side and caught him.
However, how could Qing Shengyu and his Uncle Emperor have any chance of survival against Ye Fan’s thunderous strike?
The so-called Peak God-Slaying Half-Completion experts were utterly insignificant before Ye Fan.
With just a single finger, Ye Fan pierced through the Nascent Soul of both Qing Shengyu and his Uncle Emperor.
Even their Three Souls of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity were shattered by Ye Fan, leading to their demise.
Holding Qing Shengyu’s lifeless body in his arms, Qing Jiu Zhen felt the complete absence of life within him.
Clenching his teeth, Qing Jiu Zhen looked at Ye Fan with eyes filled with hatred and tears, asking, “Why?”
Ye Fan remained indifferent, showing no sympathy for Qing Jiu Zhen’s tears. He replied coolly, “Are you asking me why I rejected you?”
Ye Fan continued, “First, everything I just said is the truth. The two standing beside me, whether it’s Sister Xianer or Sister Xuan Die, each have their own merits that you cannot compare to.”
“If I had any intentions, as long as my sisters are willing, what do you amount to?”
“Of course, there’s an even more important point.”
His gaze fell on the furious face of Qing Jiu Zhen, and Ye Fan said, “Do you still remember how proud you were when you went to the Heavenly River Mansion, looking down on me and my Ye Family?”
“I gave you the Ascension Token willingly just to exchange for a spot in the immortal mansion, yet you arrogantly dismissed it!”
As he spoke these words, a playful smile appeared on Ye Fan’s face. “I must admit, your judgment is as worthless as your arrogance—nothing at all.”
“You probably never expected that the Brat you once looked down upon would one day become someone you could never reach!”
"Of course, I, Ye Fan, wouldn't have made things difficult for you and the Qing Family just because of your past foolishness. It's truly your father and his associates who are blind, thinking they could annihilate my Ye Family."
"And just now, while you weren't here, your father and the others even contemplated self-destruction to harm those around me."
"Such people, how could I, Ye Fan, let them go?"
Before Qing Jiu Zhen arrived, Qing Shengyu and his Uncle Emperor had been gathering their internal power to self-destruct. How could Ye Fan not sense it?
It was only upon sensing Qing Jiu Zhen's arrival that he allowed them to survive until now.
At this moment, Qing Jiu Zhen's eyes were bloodshot as Ye Fan's words echoed in her ears.
Each word carried little physical harm but was filled with humiliation.
She placed Qing Shengyu's already cold body on the ground.
A powerful aura erupted from Qing Jiu Zhen as her long hair flew wildly.
With tear-filled eyes glaring fiercely at Ye Fan, she gritted her teeth and said, "I will make you pay in blood for this."
"Clang!"
A sound of a sword ringing out filled the air as Celestial Light enveloped the scene. A low-grade Celestial Artifact Flying Sword was summoned by her.
This sword was a gift from Qing Shengyu, who had obtained it from the Celestial Palace of the Sky.
However, before Qing Jiu Zhen could strike, an incredibly muffled explosion resonated from beneath the entire palace.
In the next moment, the ground shook violently as an overwhelmingly terrifying and domineering aura erupted from below.
This aura was so fearsome it felt like a primordial beast awakening suddenly.
The momentum spread through the air, causing even Lang Sun Chuan, Wuma Xian'er, and Nangong Xuandie to involuntarily change their expressions.
Qing Jiu Zhen was also startled by the sudden surge of power. Gripping her celestial sword, she quickly soared into the sky.
"Boom!"
As Qing Jiu Zhen ascended, a tremendous roar erupted beneath her feet.
The deafening sounds continued in succession, as the towering palace and magnificent halls crumbled one after another.
Within the palace of the Qinglan Celestial Kingdom, countless maids and servants were instantly buried beneath the dust.
"What on earth is happening?" Lang Sun Chuan exclaimed as he looked down. "Master, it seems something is trying to crawl out from underground."
A hint of shock flickered in Lang Sun Chuan's eyes, for the aura was extraordinarily powerful.
Even the Azure Phoenix Demon King beneath Ye Fan and the others couldn't help but let out a long howl.
Ye Fan focused his gaze downward, frowning slightly. Indeed, it seemed that something was awakening beneath the palace of the Azure Wave Celestial Kingdom.
Moreover, judging by the momentum and aura being emitted, its strength was certainly extraordinary.
It was far beyond what could be compared to a so-called Peak God-Slaying Half-Completion expert.
Even compared to someone like Jin Shan, an Ascension Realm expert, Ye Fan felt it would be no less formidable.
Qing Jiu Zhen also looked down at the continuously collapsing palace with a fearful expression.
She too had not anticipated that such a terrifying existence would be buried beneath the palace.
"Rumble—!"
Dust flew everywhere, stones filled the sky, and remnants of walls were constantly shattered into powder.
In the underground palace of the Qinglan Celestial Kingdom, a colossal figure, resembling a mountain, suddenly emerged.
Immediately, a blinding Celestial Light flashed, and dark clouds appeared in the void, directly enveloping the heads of everyone present.
Ye Fan couldn't help but look up. What was described as dark clouds actually resembled a massive gray shell hovering above them.
The shell was covered in intricate patterns, shrouded in a layer of Celestial Light.
Like a great mountain, it exuded an unparalleled terrifying might that crashed downwards.
"Who dares to kill the emperor of the Qinglan Celestial Kingdom?"
A powerful voice resonated from beneath the ground.
As the mountain-like giant continued to rise from the earth, everyone finally saw its true form.
"The Guardian Beast... The Guardian Beast of the Qing Family truly exists!"
Upon seeing the colossal creature crawl out from the ground, an expression of immense excitement suddenly appeared on Qing Jiu Zhen's previously terrified face.
