Chapter 1182: Scapegoat

“Bang, bang!”

Yan Hu pressed forward quickly. Every time he was hit, he could teleport away in an instant. When he did that, there was no sound at all and the space around his destination would not experience any fluctuation. He was just like a ghost that traveled in the void. The utmost care could not prevent it from happening.

When the battle was still raging, space would tremble violently. Anyone that dared to sneak into the void at such a time would be thrown into turbulence if not ripped apart by the twisting force.

It went without saying that Yan Hu did not have such abilities before or else he would have gained fame across the nine universes.

Apart from the fact that Yan Hu was the Chief Patriarch of the Yan Family, there was nothing noteworthy of Yan Hu. Needless to say, he had Yan Tiangang to thank to possess such great powers all of a sudden.

To teleport across a violently shaking space was not the most horrifying thing about him. What was more intimidating was his force.

What did Yan Tiangang pass onto Yan Hu? It must be something more than divine energy. Yan Hu’s hand gave out a golden glare. He was filled with so much strength that even Lu Renhuang was stunned. If a Relic was forced back by Yan Hu, how could an average Semi-God Realm warrior ward off Yan Hu’s attacks?

In the time for a few breaths, over 10 Semi-God Realm warriors on Lu Li’s side had passed away. All of them were killed within one move with their heads crushed.

“Charge!”

Lu Renhuang, Blazing Huo, and the Deaf Taoist could not allow this to go on. They might not be able to kill Yan Hu, but they still had to try. They could not just stand idly and wait for their doom.

The three of them dashed toward Yan Hu. Lu Renhuang was in charge of defense while Blazing Huo and the Deaf Taoist attacked. Unfortunately, even after trying to finish Yan Hu several times, he would just teleport away. Yan Hu never fought against them head-on. He would move away to hunt down other Semi-God Realm warriors first.

“Okay!”

The Deaf Taoist, Blazing Huo, and Lu Renhuang could do nothing when their warriors were being murdered. The Yan Family warriors were over the room. The Divine Imperial City was closed. All those Semi-God Realm warriors were rats in a hole. None of them could escape. Yan Hu would keep on attacking, and all his enemies would be ended here.

“Sh*t, let’s do it!”

Several Semi-God Realm warriors were seized with a crazed idea. They were ready to risk their lives. Yan Hu was unstoppable and his teleportation was soundless and traceless. Nobody could tell who his next target would be.

If death could not be escaped, then they would rather die a heroic death and try to drag some of the Yan Family’s disciples to their deaths on the way. At the north of the city there were millions of residents of the Divine Imperial City, half of which were disciples of the Yan Family…

“Whoosh!”

Five Semi-God Realm warriors charged toward the north of the city. They had planned their routes. They stayed close to the wall and focused their psychic power on Yan Tiangang in case he would strike again.

“Charge!”

The five Semi-God Realm warriors’ actions reminded others. Seven or eight other Semi-God Realm warriors flew over from another side. They wanted to finish all the Yan Family disciples. If so, those Semi-God Realm warriors would not regret their sacrifice.

“Ha, ha!”

Yan Tiangang’s illusion was still in the sky and everything in the city was clear at a glance. It was not possible that the Semi-God Realm warriors would hide their actions from Yan Tiangang.

“Go to hell!”

When the five people on the left side were halfway through, Yan Tiangang took action. He waved his hand toward them. There was no shadow of a hand but only a faint spatial wave.

“What?”

The five Semi-God Realm warriors were confused when they detected such a small vibration in space. What was Yan Tiangang doing? Starting a breeze to cool them off?

“Oh, no!”

Soon, they realized what was going on. When that gentle spatial wave reached their body, the space around them suddenly began to shake violently. The gentle breeze transformed into a storm. The Semi-God Realm warriors had lost control of their bodies in the air. They were being taken away by the intense waves. The warriors were just like small boats, bumping up and down in terrifying waves.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~”

Yan Tiangang poured out five rays of white light as if hurling five lethal concealed weapons. The speed was so fast that the five Semi-God Realm warriors could not react as the five rays of glow moved closer and closer.

“It is over!”

“Even so, I will see to it that the Yan Family will suffer as well!”

“Ha, ha, ha, come to the underworld with us!”

Three of the Semi-God Realm warriors, knowing that death could not be escaped, stopped fighting back or trying to run away. One of the three released a black snake, another one used golden swords, and the third one used thunderbolts. Their target was the crowd at the north of the city.

“How dare you!”

Yan Tiangang thought the five would try their best to run away. Unexpectedly, three of them were risking their lives to fight. Quite hastily, Yan Tiangang released a huge hand to intercept all attacks.

The black snake was stopped at once. But how could Yan Tiangang stop the countless swords and the thunderbolts?

Many of the swords and thunderbolts whooshed toward the dense crowd in the north of the city. Many had fallen victim to the strike. More were stepping back in terror. People were bumping into each other as they descended into panic and chaos.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

“Boom, boom, boom~”

The flying swords pierced many people through. Lightning traveled down from the sky, burning many people into ashes. It was a hellish scene with so many dead bodies on the ground.

“Remote attacks!”

The other Semi-God Realm warriors—that took another way—were well-aware now that Yan Tiangang would not give them a chance to reach the north of the city. That added insult to their injuries. This group of Semi-God Realm warriors released remote attacks, and this was a concerted effort.

All kinds of strikes covered up half of the sky. Even Yan Tiangang felt bothered. If he himself were here, he could stop even tens of thousands of Semi-God Realm warriors. However, the powers and methods of an avatar were limited.

In a hurry, Yan Tiangang released several huge hands. But those Semi-God Realm warriors’ attacks were quite peculiar. Some of them stayed very close to the ground. Yan Tiangang found it impossible to defend effectively. Within a short period of time, the residents staying in the north of the city had suffered a great loss.

“Ah—”

On the other side, all of the five Semi-God Realm warriors were finished off by Yan Tiangang’s ray of light. Here, the several Semi-God Realm warriors did not press forward or run away. They just targeted their strikes toward the north of the city and tried to finish as many as possible.

Those warriors were grinning hideously, seized with a crazed thrill. They had accepted the fact that they were going to die. If they could slaughter all the disciples of the Yan Family, then they would regret nothing even if they were killed by Yan Tiangaing.

“Courting death!”

The residents on the north of the city being slaughtered, and the casualty had reached over one and a half million. Yan Tiangang was hopping mad.

He was the forefather of the Yan Family, a mighty warrior from the Divinity and a patriarch at the township of Black Dragon Mansion. He was a warrior on the list in the Divinity. Many of the people in the north of the city were his offspring, and they were being killed right in front of him. How could he stay calm?

“Die, die, die!”

Yan Tiangang threw out over a dozen machetes at the eight Semi-God Realm warriors. None of them would be powerful enough to escape.

“Ha, ha, ha, brothers, the last round. Drag the Yan Family disciples with us!”

One of the warriors burst into laughter. Blood seeped out from his body, and it was glowing in blue light, indicating that it was toxic. He shouted, and the blood transformed into weapons, dashing toward the north of the city. He was confident that all warriors lower than the Semi-God Realm would most certainly die when they came in touch with the blood.

“Charge, kill, kill!”

The other Semi-God Realm warriors did the same thing and released the last round of attack. Then they faced the machetes head-on fearlessly, laughing as they waited for death.

“You bastard~”

Yan Tiangang was furious. He used his hand to intercept the strikes. At the moment, from the corner of his eyes, he noticed someone. He turned over, and what he saw infuriated him.

Blazing Huo had snuck over from another side without a trace. He used Shower of Fire and Ghost Light all at once. Almost all the people at the northwestern side of the city were affected by the flames…
