The man in the black robe exploded and died!

"The Seventh Prince!"

"The Seventh Prince has fallen!"

"How is this possible... Wasn't the Seventh Prince a Nascent Soul Stage Ancestor? He's actually dead! Could the purple lightning have killed him? But the Seventh Prince has the Saint Bloodline! Even without his cultivation, he still has the Saint Bloodline, making him an invincible existence below the Saints. Who in this world could possibly kill the Seventh Prince?!"

The cultivators in the ancient town stared in shock toward the sky. They saw a sea of purple thunderclouds coalescing into a towering humanoid figure, suspended in mid-air.

"Who are you to dare and slaughter the cultivators of our Beiming Immortal Martial World!" the figure demanded with cold indifference.

BOOM!

An overwhelming aura spread out.

THUD! THUD!

One by one, the cultivators fell to their knees, simply unable to bear such immense pressure.

"This..."

In a distant alley, Qin Yao's face was deathly pale. She wasn't a cultivator, but she could feel it. The sensation was like a Golden Core Stage Ancestor using their divine abilities, yet it seemed even more terrifying. The aura was so dreadful it was like that of an invincible Great Emperor! She couldn't help but back away, trying to hide inside a house, but even the houses were being crushed by the terrifying force.

"Who am I?" High above, the suspended figure raised an eyebrow as his indifferent voice echoed throughout the ancient town. "I am the current Saint Emperor. My name is Xuanyuan Tianming, I am the Beiming Saint Emperor, and the billions of living beings in the Beiming Star Domain call me Saint Emperor! Today, this Emperor shall execute the traitors! All of you mortals, step aside, or this Emperor will not hesitate to embark on a massacre!"

Saint Emperor?

Saint Emperor!

At that moment, all the townspeople were dumbstruck.

"As expected of the number one expert of the Beiming Immortal Martial World, the man who once dominated the heavens and myriad realms. His domineering aura is just too powerful," Qin Yao couldn't help but mutter to herself, her eyes filled with reverence as she looked up at that figure in the sky.

"My son, your father has come to avenge you!"

Suddenly, the figure in the sky raised a hand, pointing from afar!

CRACKLE!

A bolt of purple lightning tore through the sky, heading straight for a certain residence in the town.

CRACK!

The residence was instantly obliterated!

BOOM!

Immediately after, another deafening blast followed, and the residence was reduced to ashes.

"No! Help! Help!"

Inside the residence, cultivators pleaded for mercy, followed by a series of screams that ultimately faded into silence.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

In an instant, the people in the ancient town had all fled, leaving only a few thousand trembling people kneeling on the ruins.

"Hm? They ran? Heh, just a bunch of cowardly slaves. This Emperor can't be bothered with them. But..." The figure scanned the area below, the corner of his mouth curling into a mocking smirk. "The little lady is still here. I'll just take my anger out on you, haha!"

"No!"

"I'm willing to serve you hand and foot!"

"Please spare us!"

"We are all people of the Beiming Immortal Martial World, all natives of the Beiming Star Domain!"

The cultivators in the ancient town were in an utter panic.

"The Beiming Immortal Martial World..." Qin Yao's face turned deathly pale, her eyes filled with terror. At that moment, blurry images of her parents, relatives, and friends flashed through her mind. She wanted to run away, but her legs were so weak that she couldn't even stand.

Just then, she felt an invisible pressure enveloping her, a pressure that made her heart pound with terror. She had the inexplicable feeling that if she tried to escape, she would anger the person before her and be easily crushed to death. Taking a deep breath, she clenched her teeth and forced herself to look up at the towering figure in the sky. "Who are you, and why are you targeting a little girl?"

"Oh? A little lady? You're an interesting one." The figure paused, sizing up Qin Yao before revealing a smile. He stretched out his right hand and made a beckoning motion, and a powerful suction force immediately swept out. The force landed on Qin Yao, pulling her into the sky. The figure then reached out, grabbed her by the neck, and pulled her close. Qin Yao struggled desperately, but it was useless; she could only let him do as he pleased.

"What do you think you're doing!" Qin Yao asked, her face ashen.

"Heh heh! What do you think?" the figure sneered, his gaze sweeping over the ancient town. He glanced at the ordinary townsfolk prostrating and shivering on the ground as a fierce cruelty flickered in his eyes. "You're nothing but ants. With a single thought, this Emperor could condemn you to eternal damnation!"

WHOOSH!

As his words fell, the figure's right hand tightened slightly. Qin Yao's delicate body trembled violently; her pretty face turned incomparably pale, and her bones creaked ominously.

"Stop it!"

"Release Miss Qin!"

At that moment, three angry roars erupted from outside the ancient town.

"Hmph! Since when is the business of this Emperor something you can meddle in? You're courting death!" the figure said coldly as he raised his left palm, striking out toward the three approaching figures.

"You're the one courting death!"

"How dare you!"

"Kill!"

The three bellowed in unison, unleashing their techniques with full force!

"Not good!" Qin Yao's expression changed drastically.

"Courting death!" the figure sneered and lashed out with a punch.

BOOM!

The combined techniques of the three were instantly dispersed. They groaned in unison, coughing up blood.

"You... you're the Beiming Saint Emperor! The strongest Saint Emperor of the Beiming Immortal Martial World, Xuanyuan Tianming! We have offended the Saint Emperor and are willing to accept our punishment!"

"Saint Emperor Xuanyuan, please spare our lives! We are just mere commoners and didn't mean to offend Your Majesty's dignity!"

"Saint Emperor Xuanyuan, please have mercy!"

The three knelt on the ground wailing, kowtowing frantically.

"Hmph. Insects," Xuanyuan Tianming sneered without even glancing at them. He fixed his gaze on Qin Yao with a wicked smile. "What did you say your name was? A daughter of the Qin Family? This Emperor quite fancies you. If you are not opposed, why not follow this Emperor and cultivate?"

"Xuanyuan Tianming! Dream on!" Qin Yao shouted, grinding her teeth.

"An ungrateful woman. In that case, this Emperor will kill these ants first and then take my time playing with you!" Xuanyuan Tianming's gaze shifted, locking onto the several thousand cultivators below. He raised his hand and with a grabbing motion, instantly sent a series of incantations into the void, which transformed into numerous runes.

"Those... those are sealing runes! Once touched, a cultivator will lose their physical body! It's over! Saint Emperor Xuanyuan is going on a killing spree!"

"We have to get out of here!"

"We can't afford to offend Saint Emperor Xuanyuan! He's a supreme demon ranked ninth on the True Dragon List!"

The cultivators inside the ancient town were utterly terrified and scrambled to escape.

BANG!

However, the very next moment, the runes cast by Xuanyuan Tianming shattered among them. The thousands of cultivators screamed in agony. In the blink of an eye, all were slain, not a single one survived.

GASP!

Upon seeing this scene, Qin Yao couldn't help but draw a sharp breath.

"Little wench, is now a better time to discuss terms?" Xuanyuan Tianming withdrew his murderous intent and looked down at Qin Yao, his eyes full of sinister allure. "Agree to one condition, and this Emperor guarantees he will spare both you and your little lover. This Emperor will even grant you both Saint Emperor Attainment, helping you reach the Transcendance Tribulation Stage! How about it?"

"Saint Emperor Attainment? Xuanyuan Tianming, stop dreaming. I will never submit to you!" At the mere mention of Saint Emperor Attainment, Qin Yao began to tremble with agitation.

"Saint Emperor Attainment!"

"Miss Qin actually knows about Saint Emperor Attainment!"

"And Miss Qin actually refused..."

The cultivators watching from a distance all showed looks of envy. The Saint Emperor Attainment was an extremely tempting offer, even for cultivators at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage or Nascent Soul Stage.

"Hehe! This Emperor has made you a promise, yet you still dare to defy me. You truly have a death wish," Xuanyuan Tianming said, his brow furrowing.

HUMMM!

Suddenly, the void began to tremble.
