Chapter 4557: Killing a Demi Saint With Just One Strike
With Fu Hui leading the way, Duan Ling Tian quickly arrived at the Fu clan.
The Fu clan; a demi-saint-rank clan in the Azure Cloud Saint Sect' territories, had a very big estate. It was even bigger than the Duan clan in the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion that Duan Ling Tian joined in the past.
Duan Ling Tian looked at the Fu clan icily and scoffed softly. Then, without saying another word to Fu Hui, he teleported into the Fu clan's estate, easily bypassing the Fu clan's Guarding Formation, and appeared in the sky above the estate. After that, he said, "Fu Liang Ming, Fu Liang Yu, come out."
Subsequently, a terrifying energy surged out of Duan Ling Tian's body and swept through the Fu clan in all directions.
The Fu clan's Guarding Formation was immediately triggered, and a powerful defensive barrier rose up to stop Duan Ling Tian's terrifying energy. However...
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of thunderous explosions that sounded as though the sky was falling rang in the air when the Fu clan's Guarding Formation was destroyed by Duan Ling Tian with just a strike. Faced with Duan Ling Tian's terrifying energy, the Formation seemed vulnerable and useless.
Duan Ling Tian's energy continued to rage, and in just a short moment, the Fu clan's estate was almost completely razed to the ground. Painful cries and sorrowful wails rang in the air as weaker members of the Fu clan were killed like ants while. The stronger members managed to escape death, but they were greatly weakened as well.
"It's a supreme powerhouse!"
"He's not just an ordinary supreme powerhouse!"
A few of the stronger supreme powerhouses from the Fu clan protected the members of the clan before they quickly took to the sky and flew toward Duan Ling Tian. One by one, they surrounded Duan Ling Tian and glared at him. However, if one looked closely, one would be able to see a hint of fear in their eyes. Their fear did not come from witnessing Duan Ling Tian's destructive power; it came from Duan Ling Tian's earlier words. He had asked Fu Liang Ming and Fu Liang Yu, the Fu clan's two demi Saints, to come out in such a casual manner; it was clear that he was at least as powerful as the duo.
"Who are you?"
Duan Ling Tian's eyes swept past the dozen or so supreme powerhouses. He did not see Fu Liang Yu, whom he had once met, and judging by these people's auras, Fu Liang Ming was not around either. After all, the strongest among these people was just a level-four supreme powerhouse.
"Hmm, they're not here?"
After a brief moment, a gloomy voice rang from the depths of the Fu clan's estate.
"Who are you? How did the Fu clan offend you?"
Following that, a familiar figure appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian. He had met this person when he returned to the Outer Boundary's Sacred Lightning Realm from the God Defying World with Duan You Wei. The other party was Fu Liang Yu, Fu Liang Ming's younger brother. He suspected that Fu Liang Yu was likely the person who leaked Duan You Wei's whereabouts to Fu Liang Ming. As a result, Fu Liang Ming, along with a few demi Saints, managed to find Duan You Wei and killed her.
Only a few years had passed since then so Fu Liang Yu's appearance did not change. However, his temperament had changed greatly. He now exuded the aura of someone with high status, like a king looking down on the world. At this time, he did not recognize Duan Ling Tian. After all, in the past, all his attention was focused on Duan You Wei; he did not spare much attention for Duan Ling Tian at all. However, seeing that Duan Ling Tian was bold enough to break into the Fu clan and kill the clan members indiscriminately, he naturally did not underestimate Duan Ling Tian. Moreover, Duan Ling Tian was also very calm when facing him, a demi Saint. He naturally knew that Duan Ling Tian was at least a demi Saint since Duan Ling Tian dared to provoke him and his brother.
At this time, Duan Ling Tian smiled and said icily, "Fu Liang Yu, I haven't seen you for a few years, but you've already forgotten me. You're quite forgetful..."
"Do I know you?" Fu Liang Yu asked with a frown. Based on the other party's words, it seemed like they had met before.
"Since you don't remember, there's no need for you to try and recall our meeting," Duan Ling Tian said expressionlessly, "Even if you remember, it's useless. After all, you'll die soon."
As soon as Duan Ling Tian's voice fell, a brilliant light shot out of Duan Ling Tian's body like a shooting star. Before Fu Liang Yu could react, the light had already landed on his body.
"You..."
Fu Liang Yu's expression changed drastically. Before he could finish his words, his eyes dimmed and his body was quickly reduced to ashes that were scattered by the wind. Just like that, a demi Saint was killed. He did not even leave a corpse behind.
During the entire process, Duan Ling Tian did not move at all.
At this time, the dark clouds in the sky above the Fu clan's estate disappeared and were replaced by a dazzling golden light. Lightning flashed in the sky, and the sound of thunder rang in the air followed by an unearthly cry. Following that, blood began to rain down from the sky.
...
In the distance, many figures rose to the sky, attracted and shocked by the phenomenon above the Fu clan's estate.
"A demi Saint died?"
"That golden light... It seems like the other party comprehended the law of metal..."
"Based on the location of the phenomenon... a demi Saint who comprehended the law of metal... It must be Fu Liang Yu, the new demi Saint in the Fu clan!"
"Fu Liang Yu is dead?!"
"Heavens! It's only been a few years, but another demi Saint died in the Azure Cloud Saint Sect's territory again? A demi Saint who comprehended the law of life died just a few years ago, right?"
...
The death of the demi Saint from the Fu clan naturally stirred up a commotion. Even the Azure Cloud Saint Sect was no different.
"Fu Liang Yu, the second demi Saint of the Fu clan, died? No matter what, the Fu clan is governed by our Azure Cloud Saint Sect. Killing Fu Liang Yu without informing our Azure Cloud Saint Sect is a sign of disrespect."
"Let's go to the Fu clan and have a look. Where's Fu Liang Ming when Fu Liang Yu died?"
"Who's the culprit?"
It did not take long before a group of people left the Azure Cloud Saint Sect for the Fu clan.
...
Somewhere in the Fu clan.
An old man who was in closed-door cultivation, hoping to enter the realm of Saints, woke up. He did not hide his anger as he said to the person who had woken him up, "Who dares to bother me when I'm in closed-door cultivation? Didn't I tell you to look for my brother and not bother me unless the Fu clan is facing the threat of annihilation?"
At this moment, someone said from outside, "Great Ancestor! T-the... The Second Ancestor is dead... T-the clan needs you now, Great Ancestor!"
Fu Liang Ming's expression changed to one of shock and disbelief in just a blink of an eye when he heard that his younger brother, Fu Liang Yu, had died.
"How's this possible?!"
Fu Liang Ming left the room and questioned the person outside. Then, he left like a gust of wind.
"Who are you?! Why did you kill my brother?"
Fu Liang Ming's voice, which was filled with unprecedented anger, resounded in the entire Fu clan's estate.
