It directly burned everything on its path.

Prince Lin Bo Wang's eyes were icy as he looked at Prince Lin Fei, who had finally died and fell on the ground. 

Afterwards, he lowered his sword. Many of the men who followed him were injured at this time, but thankfully Prince Lin Fei's men had also failed miserably. They all died following their master as they were unable to withstand the attack from the other party.

"Lin Xiao!" Prince Lin Bo Wang gritted his teeth and looked in Lin Xiao's direction. His eyes were burning with hatred and rage. How could he not know that everything was going according to Lin Xiao's plan? He would be the stupidest person in the entire world if he still didn't understand that at this point.

Lin Xiao looked up as his lips curled up to form a smile. He didn't want to hide it from Prince Lin Bo Wang too. Besides, it was already too late for that prince to know everything at this point of time.

Thud!

Prince Lin Fei and his men all dropped dead while the people around hurried away. They didn't want to get involved in this matter and possibly lose their lives just simply because being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Even until the end, Prince Lin Fei didn't realize that he was being used by other people.

"Are you happy, Lin Xiao? You…" Prince Lin Bo Wang was about to curse when he noticed his communication jade lit up. He took it and upon hearing the piece of news, his face turned pale.

Glancing towards Lin Xiao, who was still giving him a faint smile, he knew that things had gone south. Everything that occurred now was not within his plan at all.

"Is that…?"

"It should be."

Lin Xiao lowered his gaze and looked at his communication jade. He smiled bitterly. In the end, that man chose this path, huh?

…

Just a few minutes' prior, palace of Sun Kingdom.

Sun Kingdom Emperor was staying in his study. The morning court had ended with them all deciding to do some important matter, but it was not really done quite well. There were quite a lot of loopholes in the plan that they couldn't patch.

He was currently feeling quite annoyed because things were not going that well.

It was then, he felt that he was not alone in the study. As Golden Core Stage 3 Cultivator, Sun Kingdom Emperor naturally had higher senses and will not be affected by ordinary medicine to the point that he was unable to detect when someone got close to him.

Just as he was about to call his guards, pain flashed on his neck.

Slash!

Bang!

Releasing large amount of Qi, he heard dull sound on his back. At the same time, he felt that blood was gushing out of a wound on his neck. It was hitting his artery and blood poured out like a waterfall.

"Who's there?"

Swish!

The sound of wind rippling was heard and Sun Kingdom Emperor quickly raised his hand to block the attack. However, he felt pain from his back towards his stomach. His eyes widened in surprise.

This….

Bang!

As he punched backwards with his Qi, the figure behind him was thrown to the wall, creating a small crater there. Wiping the blood on the corner of his lips, Sun Kingdom Emperor turned to look at the young man there. His eyes widened.

"You… who are you?"

The young man, Xia Ye, smiled lightly as dark Qi gathered on his hand. Aside from the basic element, there was also the possibility of someone harnessing dark element. It was the element that Xia Ye practiced and was born with.

This element, which was often called as shadow or dark element, was mostly used by assassins. With that element, they could conceal their presence even if they were in the presence of someone who has cultivation far higher than them.

"Have you forgotten about me, Your Majesty?" Xia Ye asked in eerie tone as he rushed over. His hand collected the dark Qi as his body disappeared before he reappeared right beside Sun Kingdom's Emperor. There were faint desperation and madness deep within his eyes when he looked at the other party.

Bang!

The two of them collided and Sun Kingdom Emperor soon realized that something was wrong. To his horror, his dantian was corroded by the dark Qi and dissolved. It would take a long time for him to recover because the dark Qi was penetrating deep into his body.

His eyes were staring at the dark Qi that emanated on Xia Ye's hand as a woman's figure appeared on his mind. A woman whom he took because she belonged to a powerful dark element cultivator...

"No way! You should have died that day!"

"I'm alive." Xia Ye wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth. "And I'll take back your life to pay for what you have done to my parents!"

Swish!

Moving rapidly with his movement technique, Xia Ye soon arrived by the Sun Kingdom's Emperor side. His sword that was coated in dark element slashed towards the Emperor without any mercy.

The Sun Kingdom Emperor was desperate as he burned whatever Qi he had left and tried to block the attack.

Slash!

But it was futile. At this amount, his ability was not even comparable to Xia Ye, who was two ranks below him in cultivation.

"Guards!"

Clang!

Resisting desperately, Sun Kingdom Emperor tried to call the guards who were supposed to be waiting for him. However, no one came and Xia Ye continued his attack while watching Sun Kingdom Emperor fought back violently.

The two wounded each other but neither side managed to fatally injure the other.

Bang! Thud!

"No one will come." Xia Ye wiped the blood on his face as he looked at Sun Kingdom Emperor. His mind could recall similar event in the past but with the opposite position. "I had killed them all."
