"Do you want to kill the City Lord?" Hu Yun looked down at Tan Yun and laughed heartily, "That's right, after all, countless members of the Immortal Ancient Divine Race have died at my hands."
"Oh right, you probably haven't seen your clan members in a long time, have you? Or rather, you've never seen them at all. But it’s alright, I'll help you and let you see them."
"Buzz—"
Hu Yun unleashed overwhelming ancestral power, conjuring a massive memory image from the void.
In the memory image, Hu Yun, who was only at the first layer of the Dao Emperor realm, wielded a pair of enormous Divine Axes, having somehow executed a body refinement technique that made his size reach three hundred thousand zhang.
Hu Yun charged into the crowd of the Immortal Ancient Divine Race, swinging his Divine Axes ferociously, beheading one member after another!
Blood soaked the ground, and the massive corpses of the Immortal Ancient Divine Race fell like bloody meteors from the sky.
Not far from Hu Yun, his brother Hu Feng, also towering at three hundred thousand zhang, wielded a Square Heaven Painting Halberd, slaughtering the Immortal Ancient Divine Race soldiers while laughing madly, "Elder brother, this feels so good! How many have you killed?"
"Hahaha, second brother! How many I've killed, I can't even recall. But at the very least, I've killed over ten million this time, right?"
"Second brother, don’t stop! We need to quickly massacre the Immortal Ancient Divine Race; the time for the competition is running out. The more we kill, the better chance we have of becoming the City Lord and Deputy City Lord in the nine great divine cities of our dynasty."
"We need to strive to be the ones who have killed the most members of the Immortal Ancient Divine Race. If we do, we will be the City Lord and Deputy City Lord of the nine great divine cities!"
After their wild laughter, Hu Yun and Hu Feng continued their slaughter against the Immortal Ancient Divine Race.
"You all better surrender!" Hu Yun shouted sternly at the battered members of the Immortal Ancient Divine Race in the sky.
At this point, Tan Yun and Yu Yunxi found their eyes welling up with tears without realizing it.
But as they witnessed the following scene, Tan Yun's heart twisted in agony, and tears streamed down his face.
In the memory image, the army of the Immortal Ancient Divine Race let out a roar filled with resentment:
"Why? We, the Immortal Ancient Divine Race, under the leadership of our Dao Emperor, fought against the demons of the Sea of Demons to protect the Supreme Ancestor Realm from devastation. Yet, how could you treat us like this? Why?"
"You ungrateful wretches deserve to die!"
"Hu Yun, listen, I, Er Lang of the Immortal Ancient Divine Race, would rather die in battle than surrender!"
"Hu Yun, Hu Feng, and all you treacherous beasts, hear me well, even if we die today, we are still the most powerful divine race, the embodiment of justice!"
"As long as you do not annihilate my Immortal Ancient Divine Race, one day, the descendants of my Immortal Ancient Divine Race will slaughter all of you ungrateful scum from the Eastern Continent Ancestral Dynasty, Eastern Continent Divine Sect, Northern Ancestral Dynasty, Southern Ancestral Dynasty, and the Elysium Sect!"
Listening to the words of his kin, looking at the blood-soaked ground and the endless corpses of his clan, Tan Yun sobbed, his cries tearing at his heart.
"Too cruel... Wuwu..." Yu Yunxi's tears fell like rain, "The Immortal Ancient Divine Race fought for righteousness, sacrificing themselves to combat the demons of the Sea of Demons, yet they were killed by their own kind."
Even though Yu Yunxi had accepted her identity as a demon, she still cried, feeling wronged for the Immortal Ancient Divine Race.
In the Tower of Longing for the Lord within Tan Yun's sleeve, Ji Yuyan had long since wept uncontrollably. She could not accept that her righteous kin were killed so brutally by these inhumane humans!
Beside Ji Yuyan, Shen Subing, Xuan Yuan Rou, Nangong Yuqin, and Ouyang Qianqian were also crying out loud.
