"You..." The Heart-Eater Demon said blankly, but before his words could finish, Qin Chen's mind moved, and with a bang, the Heart-Eater Demon's soul shattered into dust.
Wraiths began to escape from his body, directly dissipating into the void.
These were the vengeful souls that the Heart-Eater Demon had once devoured from the ten thousand clans.
Vaguely, Qin Chen saw countless powerful souls of the human race dissipating into the void as if they were thanking him.
Such a scene left everyone present in shock.
In an instant, everyone's hearts raced, feeling as if they were under immense pressure, staring at Qin Chen in disbelief.
This was the Heart-Eater Demon, a late-stage heavenly venerable level powerhouse, a true giant figure.
Although late-stage heavenly venerables were not considered significant in the Dark Continent, on the Black Jade Continent, they were definitely among the top existences.
Moreover, the Heart-Eater Demon was under the Shihen Imperial Sect, once receiving the Sect's favor, and backed by a giant figure.
Yet, such a powerful being had died right before their eyes, and it happened in an instant.
And it was in front of the Emperor Shihen.
The speed was so fast that no one could react, and their hearts bore an overwhelming shock.
Who was this person? With one sword strike to shatter the Heart-Eater Demon, Qin Chen seemed as if he had killed a fly, brushing off his hands as if to wipe away the dust, and said lightly, “Just a piece of trash, and he dares to attack me? Ignorant thing."
Qin Chen's expression was calm, and this demeanor made others feel even more unnerved.
Earlier, Emperor Shihen had already made a move to stop Qin Chen and save the Heart-Eater Demon.
However, Qin Chen had not given Emperor Shihen any face, directly shattering the divine symbol he had cast, remaining unbothered as if it did not concern him.
What kind of domineering person could disregard the Shihen Imperial Sect and kill its related powerhouse right in front of Emperor Shihen, all while appearing indifferent? This required extraordinary ferocity.
"This is a ruthless person!" someone couldn't help but mutter, feeling a chill run down their spine.
How fierce was the Heart-Eater Demon, known for his cruelty, yet now he was easily killed by Qin Chen.
"Sir, wasn't your action a bit too much earlier?" Emperor Shihen's face turned ashen, his gaze flickering as he stepped forward and coldly stated.
A terrifying aura emanated from him.
Pinnacle heavenly venerable!
Emperor Shihen was unexpectedly a pinnacle heavenly venerable level, and there was even a faint supreme aura surrounding him.
Clearly, Emperor Shihen was not far from half-step supreme.
This was astonishing.
Such a scene caused many present to gasp in shock.
How could someone as young as Emperor Shihen already be close to half-step supreme level? The Shihen Imperial Sect was truly terrifying and ruthless!
In the past, people had only heard about the brutality of the Shihen Imperial Sect and Sikong Sacred Ground, but now, they truly felt the horror of the sacred ground through Emperor Shihen.
A half-step supreme so young, no wonder Emperor Shihen came to the Decomposing Blood Grave; if he could comprehend the essence within this grave, with his talent, stepping into half-step supreme would be effortless.
Moreover, in the near future, achieving supreme would be a certainty.
This was a dream for all of them!
At this moment, everyone was immensely shocked.
Boom!
A terrifying aura filled the air as Emperor Shihen coldly gazed at Qin Chen, his killing intent unabated.
Qin Chen's actions were clearly a slap in the face to him; regardless of Qin Chen's background, as Emperor Shihen, he could not turn a blind eye.
"What? Do you have a problem with me?" Facing Emperor Shihen's killing intent, Qin Chen remained unfazed, smiling lightly as he looked at everyone. The onlookers felt compelled to lower their heads under his gaze. Finally, Qin Chen's gaze landed on Emperor Shihen, leisurely and calmly saying, "If you have an issue, feel free to speak up; I'm a person who is open to criticism."
