Chapter 192: Surrounding the Throne

Kong Heartache suddenly raised both hands, and at the same time, the shadowless blade, which had once enraged the Upper Three Heavens and shaken the Lower Three Heavens, appeared in his right hand. With a swift motion, he drew a large arc above his head!

The already crumbling and soft earthen wall suddenly collapsed entirely!

With a loud rumble, as the center caved in, the entire structure fell apart! And Kong Heartache's slender figure transformed into a streak of light, quickly shooting upwards!

He was the first to ascend! At this moment, being the first to go up undoubtedly meant enduring the enemy's most ferocious attacks! It was the most perilous position!

Yet this man, who had spent his life utilizing others on the Heartbreak Throne, for the first time willingly cleared the way with his own flesh and blood!

For his critically endangered brother!

Boom!

The ground completely fell in, and the entire courtyard was filled with water, causing everyone to watch from a distance, while soldiers continued to laboriously carry water over!

As the sudden collapse revealed a massive space, everyone was momentarily stunned.

At that moment, a lean figure in black clothing, wielding a shining blade, rose from the ground like a demon god, standing in the waist-deep water with a sharp gaze. In the pitch-black night, his eyes sparkled like two bolts of lightning, radiating brilliance!

His body was covered in mud, filthy and standing in water, with only his upper body visible, yet he emanated a fierce momentum, resembling a lion trapped with nowhere to escape, still showcasing the majesty of a king! An indomitable fighting spirit!

The surging water flowed up from beneath his feet, creating turbulent waves, making it appear as though he was a fierce monster emerging from the depths, stepping onto the waves!

With a few more angry roars, seven people appeared beside him. Just eight men, facing countless troops around them, showed no fear on their faces and instead exuded a resolute and chilling aura!

In the distance, Chu Yang's pupils suddenly contracted.

They've come out!

The two thrones are indeed here! The intelligence was accurate!

Cheng Ziang roared angrily, ready to lead his men forward, but was stopped by a wave of Chu Yang's hand.

"May I ask, are those two thrones from the Golden Horse Knights Hall?" Chu Yang asked calmly.

Kong Heartache's gaze immediately locked onto Chu Yang from afar, staring for a long while before finally smiling faintly, "You must be Chu King of Hell, right?"

Chu Yang, masked by a black scarf, replied, "Indeed. With both thrones present, how could I dare to claim the title of King of Hell?"

"Worthy of the title!" Kong Heartache's gaze swept across the dozens of yards to land on the masked face of Chu Yang, making Chu Yang feel as though his face had been stabbed by steel needles. "This seat has roamed the Upper Three Heavens and faced four major noble families in unison, yet none have truly forced me into a corner! Yet you achieved it! Impressive!"

"Chu King of Hell, such schemes! Such methods!" After staring at Chu Yang for a while, Kong Heartache finally let out a long sigh, his words filled with complex emotions.

Upon meeting the real Chu King of Hell, Kong Heartache realized that he had fallen into this guy's trap! Based on the aura emanating from him, he was definitely no more than a martial master. Therefore, the three thrones that appeared before and after his battle with Yin Wufa must have been a ploy orchestrated by Chu King of Hell!

Just as Diwu Qingrou said, he had utilized the experiences of others from the Upper Three Heavens noble families! How hateful it was that he had been toyed with so easily that he only realized his doom when it was too late.

"I'm flattered!" Chu Yang spoke gravely. "May I ask if you are the Heartbreak Blade King Kong Heartache?"

"Who I am is no longer important!" Kong Heartache chuckled lightly, shaking his head. His eyes slowly turned, looking at the silent army around them, a hint of defiance curling his lips. "Such a grand display truly shows how much you value me... There are at least fifty thousand troops around, right?"
