Lord of Myriad Realms

Chapter 25 : Elea's one last wish.

Both Warlord and Bloodhand fought in the sky. Despite the distance people could still feel their impressive aura.

"Two Emperor fighting? Who are they? "Younger generation who were watching the battle didn't know about Warlord and Bloodhand so they asked with confusion.

" One is the ancestor from roswell family. He was the one and only friend of storm god. They were practically brothers when they were young. His strength and talent were on per with storm god but eventually storm god ascended to godhood and left everyone behind in the dust . Another one is the old ancestor of Flame heart empire, he was titled Bloodhand due to his cunning and fierce nature . Flame god was his brother in law. During storm gods era he was also storm gods love rival. " A knowledgeable ancestor said from the side.

" So shouldn't senior bloodhand be stronger than senior warlord? Why are they both at the same level if he was a gods rival? " A younger generation asked.

" Well there's a history behind it. Storm god and bloodhand were already a rival even before they fell in love with the same woman. When storm god was just a step away from reaching godhood, he fell in love with a woman at that year. They vowed to be together after his cultivation session. It was rumored that bloodhand already loved that woman even before storm god met her, so one day unaware about all those matters, bloodhand abducted that woman.That woman also had a great background. Warlord was an eye witness of that matter. He didn't want to disturb his friend so in order to save his friends lover, he joined hands with that woman's family and somehow outwitted bloodhand that year and saved that woman. She got heavily injured in the process. When storm god heard the news he became furious. The rage of a god made the whole world tremble. Fortunately Flame god came in time and saved bloodhand. To ease storm gods rage, flame god half crippled bloodhand's cultivation base. From then on he stayed extremely low key. Never took part in mundane matters. " The knowledgeable ancestor explained patiently.

" So thats how it is....But how did senior warlord outwitted senior bloodhand. Isn't senior bloodhand is well known for his intelligence and cunning? " The young boy asked again.

" Don't ask me. A man can be a fool when he is in love and also can become a demon when he hate someone. What exactly happened that year, only they knows. " The old ancestor shook his head slightly.

Roswell family's side wasn't looking good. They suffered heavy casualties . Many of their important members died. Screams resonated in the air. Soldiers from the empire assaulted them relentlessly. Iron gate sect made a pincer attack which caught most of the roswell family experts off guard.

In the sky where bloodhand and warlord were fighting, Warlord was constantly being pushed back. His long dress was torn apart, few bloody scars could be seen. Bloodhand used his both hand to suppress him not giving him any chance to breath.

" You... already reached peak emperor? " Warlord said with a frown.

" Today is the day you die. Why talk so many." Bloodhand said emotionlessly.

" So confidence? Even if you reached peak emperor thats not enough to kill me. " Warlord laughed. His previous weak and old demeanor was nowhere to be seen. He was full of heroic fighting spirits. He took out an old looking rusty halberd. The halberd exuded immense pressure. "Nethergear Halberd. " Warlord said word by word.

" An impressive fate weapon." Bloodhand praised.

There's a great difference between fate weapons and spirit weapons. Weapons used by an emperor or above emperor are called fate weapons. Spirit weapons are born from the life essence of a cultivator. It's directly connected to a cultivators life wheel. Once his spirit weapon is damaged he might become a cripple forever. But there's an exception only for venerable. A venerable can severe his spirit weapon from his life wheel so even if the weapon is damaged somehow it won't have any affect on its master.

" But i have one better. " Bloodhand smirked at warlord. For some reason warlord felt a little tremble in his heart. A vague premonition appeared in his mind.

Bloodhand took out a wand looking object. It was a wand actually. Warlords eyes widened in horror.

" Wand of Hell flame!! Flame god severed his spirit weapon and actually gave it to you? Why? " Warlord said solemnly.

" Thats not it. He didn't gave it to me because of the past matter but to protect the empire. I can only use it a few times. Once its uses are over it'll return to its original owner as long as Flame gods still alive. " Bloodhand explained.

" So he didn't sever his spirit weapon but just temporarily separated it, such wondrous method...

Aren't you afraid of punishment for breaking the past treaty?" Warlord said suppressing his praise toward flame god.

" Have you forgotten someone? " Bloodhand said with a mocking tone.

" You mean? Black Iron god's disciple? Didn't he ascended? Warlord said with confusion.

During storm gods era, there was other two gods who ruled their respective areas in eastern state. One of them was Black Iron God.

He was the creator of Iron gate sect. The peace treaty of the past between the three gods wasn't just made for show. If one party wants to destroy another, they need the support from third party. If both party engage in war without consulting or getting blood affirmation from the third party. Divine punishment will descend at both.

" How about his descendant? Bloodhand said calmly.

" Hahaha how can i forget. There's still his descendents left. So you took their blood for the confirmation of war? No wonder you waited this long just to find his descendents. No punishment for you then. Hahaha " Warlord said as if he was mocking himself.

" Now lets end this. We have dragged this too long. " Bloodhand said flatly.

" Indeed. Lets end this. " Warlord's eyes suddenly turned sharp as he said loudly.

Both dashed forward at an incredible speed that naked eye couldn't see. The Wand in bloodhand's hand waa like a burning sun, it exuded blinding radiance . It can melt away any weapon in an instant and dry up an entire ocean. A severed spirit weapon of a god. The fate weapon in warlords hand was no match for it. Warlord's body got burned severely. He still persisted.

'Hong hong hong' Violent black flames covered the entire sky. It was like flames of hell that descended into mortal world. Few seconds later warlord's body fell heavily to the ground. His body was all burnt up. His spirit weapon got broken along with the fate weapon of storm god. There was only last breath left in his body.

" Any last words?" Bloodhand said emotionlessly.

" Please...spare those little ones.... they....they are inn...ocent... " Warlord took his last breath.

" Sorry.There's a saying about cut the grass and eliminate the roots." Bloodhand smirked coldly.

" Noooo...." Roswell family members all despaired. They couldn't believe their all powerful invincible ancestor just died. They lost their courage to fight.

Elea's second uncle shiba who was heavily injured at the moment looked at the corpse of his ancestor not too far away and commanded "Retreat ".

Everyone hurriedly fled away with their lives on the line but suddenly they felt their body couldn't move an inch. Fear of death struck in their heart.

Bloodhand who used his spirit strength to stop them from moving ,commanded in a slow tone " Kill them all. Leave no one alive."

Someone dragged out Elea's mother who was unconscious. Elea who wasn't far away saw this and wanted to shout but only gurgling sound came out. Her vocal cord was damaged. Her limbs were all broken and she couldn't move in the slightest.

Even womens and children's weren't spared. Lamenting cry echoed everywhere. Elea watched her clansmen die one after another with a vacant eyes. She still doesn't know that should she feel fear or hatred? She felt that she should have died before watching all of this but deep inside her heart she still wants to see his face one more time.

' Young master . Hel...p...help me. ' That was her one last cry before she closed her eyes.

Faraway from sky city in an unknown location. Ray leisurely enjoyed the scenery as he strolled. His eyes suddenly fell on a certain bush not too far away. A bloody figure came in view.

He walked toward the figure and recognized him instantly. In fact it was the old woman who were always standing beside elea.

Ray frowned slightly as he moved his finger. Grand law emerged from the tip of his finger which healed the old woman instantly.

She groaned a little and woke up. She suddenly jumped up and looked around her surroundings vigilantly. Her eyes lit up as she saw Ray. She hurriedly knelt down infront of Ray and begged in a crying and hoarse voice.

" What happened? Take a good breath and say slowly. " Ray said with a smile.

She explained everything that took place without hiding in the slightest. Ray squinted his eyes after hearing everything.

Ray looked into the distance. Despite standing at millions of miles away his eyes directly fell on a certain person. Laws of the world condensed around him. Heavenly secrets were wide open infront of him as he gazed at the past and present. Rays eyes flickered with vicious light. " Some people really court death. It's been a while since my last bloodbath. Time for a m******e. " He said with a gentle smile. Hidden beneath his smile was a rage that could devour all things.

Ray took a step forward and disappeared in the void. The old woman stood there blankly. The old woman was very loyal, she even burned her life essence to search for Ray. Her death was imminent if Ray hadn't found her.
