The Lord’s Empire

After being tossed up, the Heaven Fox Stone quickly fell and countless people’s gazes fell on that Heaven Fox Stone. However, no one dared to go up to take it because taking it now would be useless.

They were too weak, and even if they could seize it now, they would not be able to protect it and would be attacked by everyone. As such, most people decided to try to snatch it when things became more chaotic; that way, they would have more of a chance.

That was what ordinary people planned, and for Hu Xie and the others it was naturally the opposite. After all, they were incredibly powerful, and seeing the falling Heaven Fox Stone, they exploded out with powerful auras and rushed towards it.

The one who was closest was naturally Hu Sha, as he was the one who had tossed it up into the air. He shot into the air and gave a pleased smile as he was about to grab the Heaven Fox Stone.

However, a suction force suddenly covered the Heaven Fox Stone and whisked it away.

Everyone followed the Heaven Fox Stone to a person dressed in a black cloak, who grabbed it and said coldly, “I wanted to refine myself; why did you do this?”

Hearing this, no one understood what Zhao Fu meant. However, now that he had obtained the Heaven Fox Stone, countless people wanted to go and snatch it from him.

Hu Sha felt quite furious; he had nearly obtained the Heaven Fox Stone but it had been stolen away by Zhao Fu. He exploded out with a powerful aura and rushed towards Zhao Fu with a powerful gust of wind as he roared, “You’re seeking death!”

Zhao Fu’s expression did not change in the slightest, and seeing Hu Sha about to reach him, he stretched out a hand and lightly cried out, “Eight Forbidden Blood Art!”

Chi!

Zhao Fu’s outstretched hand became covered by a blood-red light and as Hu Sha rushed down, Zhao Fu’s hand pierced through his chest, resulting in a loud stabbing sound.

“Arghhh!” Hu Sha howled in pain as his body instantly melted and became countless traces of blood-red water that formed an orb that covered Zhao Fu’s hand. The orb of blood-red water gave off a faint blood-red light and blood-red runes floated out of it, and they surrounded the two meters around the blood-red orb.

Zhao Fu gripped his hand and slowly withdrew it from the blood-red orb, drawing out a blood-red sword. The runes in the surroundings flowed into the blood-red sword, and the blood-red sword immediately gave off a terrifying and dangerous aura.

Everything happened too quickly and no one would have expected that the powerful Hu Sha would be instantly killed by Zhao Fu. Seeing this, others started charging forwards to try to snatch the Heaven Fox Stone.

Facing the people charging up, Zhao Fu held the blood-red sword and vigorously slashed out, sending out an enormous blood-red sword arc that slashed everyone in the surrounding 100 meters into two halves and dyed the ground blood-red.

The rest of the people charging up immediately stopped and stared at the heap of corpses in terror. That person in the black cloak seemed like a god of death.

The scene fell into a deathly silence, and Hu Xie and the remaining three people stared at Zhao Fu with pale faces. Now, they were thankful that they had not rushed up or they would have ended up like Hu Sha.

Just who was this person and how did he have such terrifying power? Seeing how Zhao Fu had instantly killed Hu Sha, they were certain that they would also be crushed to death by Zhao Fu.

“What? Are we not going to continue? This Heaven Fox Stone will belong to whoever can snatch it,” Zhao Fu held the blood-red sword in one hand and the Heaven Fox Stone in the other as he talked coldly.

The people in the surroundings looked terrified and sensing Zhao Fu’s aura, their bodies instinctively trembled. They finally understood why those people before had surrendered before attacking.

“I’ll kill you!” A voice exploded out from the viewing platform as a bearded middle-aged man exploded out with a savage aura and furiously charged at Zhao Fu. He was Hu Sha’s father, Hu Li, and he had Great Earth Realm Cultivation.

Sensing this ferocious power, everyone else quickly retreated, while Zhao Fu stood there and watched Hu Li charge over.

Shing!

Zhao Fu raised the blood-red sword and slashed down, sending out an enormous vertical blood-red sword light.

Bang!

Hu Li was sent flying back by the blood-red sword light and heavily slammed into a wall of the viewing platform, causing a massive crater to appear in the wall.

The expressions of the people on the viewing platform fell, and they exploded out with powerful auras as they looked at Zhao Fu seriously.

They had similar strength to Hu Li, and yet Hu Li had been easily defeated by a strike. This proved that Zhao Fu could defeat all of them, so they felt quite shocked.

Now, everyone understood that Zhao Fu was not even someone from the Fox Race. A violet-haired elder asked seriously, “Who are you? Why have you come to steal our race’s Heaven Fox Stone and kill our people?”

Zhao Fu was the only outsider here and everyone else was from the Fox Race. There were countless experts here, as well as large numbers of Fox Race soldiers; the Fox Race had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers.

Hearing the elder’s words, Zhao Fu put the Heaven Fox Stone away and said coolly, “The Heaven Fox Stone belongs to anyone who can snatch it, so it is now mine. Also, I just killed a bunch of trash; do you have a problem with that?”

The violet-haired elder yelled, “This is the Fox Race’s territory. Don’t go too far, or else you’ll die a horrible death.”

Bang!

Just as the elder spoke, Zhao Fu shot forwards and his body turned into a few bloody wisps and dissipated. In the next moment, he appeared in front of the elder and his blood-red sword stabbed through the elder’s chest. Moreover, because of the momentum behind Zhao Fu’s attack, his sword nailed the elder into the wall behind him.

Zhao Fu was now face to face with the elder, and he gave a cold smile as he asked, “What can you do even if I go too far?”

Blood leaked out of the elder’s lips, and he furiously glared at Zhao Fu. He gathered a wave of power in his hand and raised it, wanting to strike Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu laughed and lightly cried, “Blood Devour!”

The blood-red sword gave off large amounts of blood-red aura that instantly sank into the elder’s chest. The elder cried out in pain as his body withered and he turned into a dry corpse.

Zhao Fu withdrew the blood-red sword from the elder’s withered corpse, and everyone in the surroundings quickly retreated. That elder was one of the strongest people in the Fox Race’s senior generation, and yet he had also been killed by Zhao Fu in a single strike.

“Grandpa!” Hu Xie howled in pain. The elder who Zhao Fu had just killed was his grandpa, and he had treated him incredibly well.

Zhao Fu turned his head and looked at Hu Xie as his left eye widened and his golden pupil quickly spun.

Clang, clang, clang…

Chains shot out from the air with immense power, piercing through Hu Xie’s body.
