The remaining ten hidden guards' pupils shrank drastically, their footsteps halting subconsciously.
They had never seen such a domineering power. A mid-stage Cave Heaven Realm cultivator couldn't even last a single exchange against him!
"Trash! What are you afraid of! Attack together!"
Qin Feng, both shocked and furious, waved his short blade and charged forward himself. The poisoned blade gleamed with a green light, thrusting straight at Xiao Ruobai's back.
He refused to believe that twelve people besieging him couldn't take down one young cultivator!
Hearing the wind behind him, Xiao Ruobai dodged the short blade sideways. In that instant, he backhandedly flicked the Nine Heavens Dragon Soul Halberd. Golden battle qi shot out like a sharp arrow, accurately piercing the throat of a bow-wielding hidden guard.
The hidden guard let out a muffled groan. The longbow in his hand fell to the ground, and his body limply collapsed.
Almost at the same time, two more hidden guards attacked from the left and right sides.
Xiao Ruobai tapped his feet lightly, his figure leaping up like a phantom. Pointing the halberd tip downward, he thrust fiercely. The battle qi pierced through a hidden guard's skull. Immediately after, leveraging the momentum, he swept the halberd horizontally. Another hidden guard's neck was instantly slashed open, blood spurting out.
In just a few breaths of time, five hidden guards had already perished.
Xiao Ruobai's War God Physique completely erupted. The golden battle qi condensed into a corporeal armor around his body. He moved as if entering an uninhabited land; every swing of the Nine Heavens Dragon Soul Halberd was accompanied by a miserable scream.
Whether piercing hearts, severing limbs, or shattering skulls, every strike was clean and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
Qin Feng watched with his heart pounding in fear, the offensive of the short blade in his hand slowing down slightly.
He realized that Xiao Ruobai's battle qi seemed inexhaustible, and every strike precisely locked onto the hidden guards' vital points. It was obvious that he was thoroughly accustomed to slaughter. How was this a cultivator? This was clearly an Asura who had crawled out from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!
"Stop him! Quickly stop him!"
Qin Feng roared, but the remaining hidden guards had long lost their will to fight. Facing Xiao Ruobai's charge, they could only subconsciously retreat.
One of them had just turned around to flee when Xiao Ruobai threw out a streak of battle qi, nailing him dead straight to the palace wall. His eyes were wide open, filled with terror.
Fang Hanyu remained guarding the side the entire time. Chaos sword qi flowed outside his scabbard, forming an invisible barrier.
"Pfft!" The halberd tip fell, and the last hidden guard also collapsed in a pool of blood.
In less than half an incense stick of time, all twelve hidden guards had fallen into a pool of blood, leaving only Qin Feng still "standing" in place.
His hands were severed at the wrists, the short blade having fallen aside long ago. His knees were a bloody mess, with ghastly white bone shards piercing through the flesh. His entire person could only slump on the ground, relying on his remaining strength to barely prop up his upper body.
The spiritual energy in his dantian instantly became chaotic, and then dissipated like a deflated balloon—that place which had once gathered his late-stage Cave Heaven Realm cultivation base was now a dead ruin.
The Nine Heavens Dragon Soul Halberd in Xiao Ruobai's hand was still dripping blood. Although the golden battle qi had mostly been restrained, a wisp still lingered at the tip of the halberd, gleaming with a cold light that scared Qin Feng out of his wits.
"Kill me, kill me..."
Qin Feng's voice was as hoarse as a broken gong. Blood continuously spilled from the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were full of fear and despair.
Xiao Ruobai looked up at the great hall, the killing intent in his eyes almost overflowing.
He gripped the Nine Heavens Dragon Soul Halberd tightly, pointing the tip at the hall doors. His voice carried a soul-piercing resoluteness: "Emperor of Great Yan, come out and accept your death!"
Xiao Ruobai's furious roar exploded like thunder. The tip of the Nine Heavens Dragon Soul Halberd gleamed with a piercing golden light, pointing straight at the tightly shut doors of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Rivers of blood were still slowly flowing on the palace paths. The corpses of the imperial guards were piled up like mountains. The stench of blood in the air was so thick it could hardly be dispersed, even dyeing the gilded tiles on the hall roof red.
Right at this moment, a loud "crack" suddenly came from the palace walls on both sides of the hall. Two elderly figures drifted down in front of the hall doors like phantoms. Faint golden spiritual energy lingered around them—it was shockingly the pressure of the Heaven and Human Realm!
The old man on the left wore a dark gold brocade robe. His hair and beard were all white, yet his complexion was ruddy. It was none other than Yan Hong, the ancestor the Great Yan Dynasty had hidden for many years.
The old man on the right wore a black Daoist robe and tightly gripped a peach wood sword in his hand. He was another Heaven and Human Realm ancestor, Yan Lie.
The two were originally in secluded cultivation deep within the imperial palace. They were forced to break out of their seclusion only when they sensed a battle qi far exceeding the Cave Heaven Realm sweeping across the palace grounds. This power was abnormally overbearing, even causing the barrier of their seclusion to faintly tremble.
"Arrogant brat! To dare intrude into the palace to commit murder and slaughter the imperial guards, do you really think my Great Yan royal family has no one left?"
Yan Hong shouted sternly. His Heaven and Human Realm pressure spread out like a deep abyss, attempting to suppress the opponent with absolute realm superiority.
He had lived for nearly eight hundred years and seen countless geniuses, but never had anyone dared to act so brazenly in the Great Yan Imperial Palace. The killing intent in his eyes almost solidified into substance.
Xiao Ruobai, however, remained completely motionless. The golden battle qi around him flowed autonomously, actually blocking all of the Heaven and Human Realm pressure outside his body.
That battle qi was condensed and unyielding, gleaming with a metallic cold light. It revealed a sharpness that made even Yan Hong palpitate. This was definitely not an aura an ordinary cultivator could possess, much less something any known physique or cultivation method could trigger.
The doors of the grand hall were forcefully pushed open. The Emperor of Great Yan, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, walked out with an ashen face.
Initial-stage Heaven and Human Realm spiritual energy lingered around him. He had hidden this cultivation base for many years, but now it was completely revealed, clearly showing his incomparable fury.
"Audacious traitors! Killing my imperial guards, slaying my hidden guards—who exactly are you people? How dare you run wild in my imperial palace!"
The Emperor shouted fiercely, his gaze scraping past Xiao Ruobai and Fang Hanyu like a knife, trying to find a flaw in the two.
But the Shadow Guard beside him, upon clearly seeing the two's faces and feeling that familiar aura, had his pupils suddenly shrink to the size of pinpricks.
His body trembled uncontrollably, and his voice cracked with panic: "Your... Your Majesty! It's them! It's those two mysterious people from the secret realm!"
These words exploded like a clap of thunder in the Emperor's ears, instantly freezing him in place. Previously, he had still been regretting his inability to curry favor with these two secret realm experts, even plotting how to borrow their power to control Profound Province.
Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that the people he so desperately wanted to cling to would actually charge into the imperial palace with blades in hand, becoming assassins out for his life!
"You... you are the ones from the secret realm..."
The Emperor's voice suddenly changed pitch. The ruthlessness in his eyes was scattered by shock, and even the spiritual energy around him lost its rhythm.
Only one thought remained in his mind: Could it be that those rebellious sons of his provoked them in the secret realm? If he had known, he should have just shot them onto the wall back then!
At this time, the Shadow Guard's gaze swept over Little Black on Xiao Ruobai's shoulder. His face instantly turned as pale as paper, and he screamed frantically in his heart: That fierce bird came too!
He subconsciously took a half-step back, his hand pressing on the hidden weapon at his waist, but he didn't even have the courage to draw it out. Facing such existences that could annihilate two great demonic sects, any resistance was like striking a stone with an egg.
Xiao Ruobai looked at the Emperor's distraught appearance, a cold arc hooking the corners of his mouth. His tone carried mockery: "What? Didn't Your Majesty want to curry favor with the 'mysterious people' from the secret realm? Now that we've met, why can't you speak?"

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
