Chapter 442: The Bombardment
🕑 Added 2024-10-17 08:36:32 +0000 UTCThe Seventh Prince of the Black Horn Kingdom, named Shen Yi, looked down from the sky, listening to the screams below, and felt a sense of elation.
"What a wonderful sound," Shen Yi said with a contented expression, slightly closing his eyes as if savoring the cries of the children’s parents below.
An elder of the Black Horn tribe, who was accompanying Shen Yi, suddenly descended from the sky. Looking at the mournful parents of the four tribes with disdain, he said, “If you want to stay alive, cry louder and more tragically. Our young master enjoys listening to it.”
“And as for you…” The Black Horn elder turned his gaze to Lin Qian, his expression cold, “You dared to intervene and disturb the young master’s entertainment. Fortunately, the young master is magnanimous and does not hold it against you. Kneel down, beg for mercy, and make it pleasing to the young master. Perhaps you might save your life.”
The elder’s words caused the people of the four tribes to glare at him with hatred.
This group of parents from the four tribes had come to hunt lower-level soul beasts and train their combat skills. Instead, they encountered Shen Yi’s group.
Shen Yi, enjoying the cruelty of torturing children, had his subordinates amuse themselves with the children of these parents.
Black Horn tribe children were thrown high into the air, falling to their deaths before their parents’ eyes.
Spirit Hoof tribe children were forced to run until they dropped dead from exhaustion.
Dwarf tribe children were thrown into a Black Horn tribe alchemist’s furnace and burned into sculptures.
Human tribe children, due to their large numbers, were captured by soul power and crushed, turning into bursts of bloody fireworks.
Shen Yi relished the sight of the parents’ pain as they watched their children die before them. It gave him great pleasure.
“Is it really just because you like it that you inflict such suffering?” Lin Qian, enraged, shouted at Shen Yi, who was enjoying the scene in the air. “In conflicts, death and survival are common, but must you torment these poor parents? Can’t you be more merciful?”
Shen Yi’s expression of enjoyment slightly frowned at Lin Qian’s shout. He slowly opened his eyes, clearly displeased at being disturbed during his enjoyment.
“No, this young master likes it,” Shen Yi said, pointing at Lin Qian. “You four despicable tribes are only fit to be our Black Horn tribe’s slaves. You dare dream of equality? In your dreams!”
“Since you’re so lowly, you should be aware of your position. If it weren’t for the king-grandfather being in closed-door training, do you think you’d still be alive?” Shen Yi lifted his chin, looking down at Lin Qian. “You are merely objects for our amusement. Eradicating you would be effortless.”
“Father, mother, where are my hands? Where are my legs?” The powerful restorative potion had revived Xiao Jiang, who then realized the horrifying truth and looked at his crying parents in panic.
Xiao Jiang received no answer, only seeing his parents’ sorrowful faces, and forced a smile, “Father, mother, don’t cry. I’m fine. I’m still alive, aren’t I?”
However, Xiao Jiang’s brave words only made his parents cry even harder.
Lin Qian, with a cold smile on his face, looked at his hands. The spiritual energy around him began to churn violently, pouring into him forcefully.
The spiritual energy in his dantian also increased, converging into pure soul power and three different types of soul power, rushing through the Thunder Night Sword and Cloud Sword, two of his martial souls.
He began to impact the Awakening Realm.
The calm aura around Lin Qian started to become frenzied. The surroundings were completely affected by his energy, stirring up a violent whirlwind and lifting fallen leaves.
“I declare!” Lin Qian’s voice, infused with soul power, reverberated through the heavens and earth, even reaching the distant gathering place, making Wang Qiang look up in shock.
“The Hua Xia Empire will launch an annihilation war against the Black Horn Kingdom!”
As Lin Qian’s words fell, the surroundings fell silent. The parents of the four tribes, initially sorrowful and hateful, turned their heads in shock at Lin Qian’s declaration.
In the sky, Shen Yi and the Black Horn tribe’s forces, upon hearing Lin Qian’s words, couldn’t contain their emotions and burst into laughter.
“Hahaha, how amusing. The Hua Xia Empire? Launching an extermination campaign against the Black Horn Kingdom?” Shen Yi mocked Lin Qian’s words from the sky, finding them absurd.
“Who do you think you are, to say ‘exterminate a nation’ just like that?”
Shen Yi finished speaking, and Lin Qian’s expression turned icy, his murderous intent unabated: “Yes, I said exterminate a nation.”
“Your foolishness and lack of bottom line have brought your nation into war early, and I will show no mercy because I’ve found excessive compassion to be foolish.” Lin Qian looked at the tear-streaked faces of the four tribes’ parents, “Compassion is reserved for one’s own people. As for outsiders, I suddenly feel that there is no need to waste time on them.”
“Thinking about it, it’s laughable. Since I want to make the Ancient Forest World my territory, why bother thinking so much? Just go straight to war.”
“Now, I declare that the Ancient Forest World belongs to the Hua Xia Empire. You Black Horn tribe can either kneel or die.”
As Lin Qian’s words concluded, he raised his right hand and waved towards the sky: “Except for this young master, kill!”
Whoosh!
Before Shen Yi and his group could react to Lin Qian’s words, a massive arrow of condensed soul power shot from afar, piercing through the treetops and crushing the branches and leaves in its path.
The enormous arrow aimed at the Black Horn elder who had spoken earlier. Startled, he hastily released his soul power to block it.
The Black Horn elder, a powerful figure in the Soul Realm, was a high-level opponent for the four tribes, but to the Imperial army’s advanced troop, the Strong Feather, he was merely a target.
Moreover, the Strong Feather summoned by Lin Qian was itself at the Soul Realm’s Heart Realm level.
Bang!
The huge soul power arrow shot by the Strong Feather brutally shattered the Black Horn elder’s soul power and struck his chest.
The tremendous impact of the soul power arrow engulfed the elder in a burst of bloody flames in mid-air.
This was just the beginning. Dominant, unmatched giant arrows shot out from the dense forest in all directions, overwhelming the Black Horn tribe’s warriors around Shen Yi and turning them into bloody fireworks.
Bang!
The red-gold thunder soul power gathered and directly blasted Shen Yi, who was only at the Breaking Through Realm, down from the sky, causing him to crash heavily in front of Lin Qian.
