Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 588 Heavenly Slaughter Order

"Speak or not?" Xu Ping’an punched Song Lingyue’s soul entity.

Instantly, Song Lingyue’s soul entity trembled violently, almost shattering.

Song Lingyue felt her soul was on the verge of collapsing.

She cursed inwardly without stop, but she was powerless, her life now in the hands of Xu Ping’an.

If she didn’t follow Xu Ping’an’s orders, he might actually follow through.

With this thought, Song Lingyue could only look up and say to Yu Xuanshan, "Yu Xuanshan, Xu Ping’an is stronger than you, he can give me the pleasure that you can’t, I want to be with him."

Upon these words, the entire scene was stunned into silence.

Yu Xuanshan looked at Song Lingyue with disbelief.

Shao Tianyu watched Yu Xuanshan with a curious gaze.

"Damn it, Xu Ping’an must be nearby," cursed Yan Wu in his mind.

At this moment, he was certain that he was on the edge of death.

"Bitch, I’ll kill you."

Yu Xuanshan was beside himself with rage and was about to make a move.

"Boom!"

Before Yu Xuanshan could act, a fierce explosion erupted.

A terrifying soul storm instantly swept across the entire courtyard.

"Xu Ping’an, you deceived me..." Song Lingyue roared in resentment.

Her soul entity blasted apart in the terrifying explosion.

The combined power of the two forces reached an absolutely horrifying level.

Song Lingyue could have never imagined that Xu Ping’an would use his own soul entity to detonate hers.

The explosion resulting from two Ninth Rank soul entities was already comparable to a full-force soul strike from a Semi-Immortal level expert.

"Pfft!"

Yu Xuanshan spewed blood violently and was thrown backwards.

His soul entity had been heavily damaged and was almost collapsing.

He felt a splitting headache and was in agonizing pain.

Shao Tianyu, on the other side, wasn’t faring much better.

His soul had also been heavily wounded, and he stared blankly at the unfolding scene.

What happened?

Why would Song Lingyue suddenly detonate her soul origin?

Yan Wu, on the other hand, was in a better state, as he had been prepared.

But even now, he was injured and inwardly cursed as he watched the scene before him.

"Fuck, is Xu Ping’an really that ruthless to have detonated Song Lingyue’s soul origin?" Yan Wu cursed inwardly.

As for the idea that Xu Ping’an had also detonated his soul origin, Yan Wu thought that was nonsense.

How could Xu Ping’an possibly blow up his own soul origin?

Just to badly injure Yu Xuanshan?

What a joke!

It wasn’t that he underestimated Yu Xuanshan, but even he didn’t feel worthy to force Xu Ping’an to a mutual destruction.

"No, I must leave quickly. Xu Ping’an wouldn’t simply want to injure Yu Xuanshan badly," Yan Wu thought and hurriedly ran towards the outside of the courtyard.

Xu Ping’an, hiding in the shadows, raised an eyebrow at the scene.

He had seen every move that Yan Wu made.

"Didn’t expect this guy to be so clever, sensing that I was scheming," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

He didn’t pursue Yan Wu.

Because he knew that Yan Wu surely had a trump card in his hand.

Acting at this moment, without the element of surprise, might not yield favorable results.

Moreover, killing Yan Wu would only expose himself, giving Yu Xuanshan the chance to activate the formation.

Xu Ping’an’s gaze turned to Yu Xuanshan, who was still suffering from an excruciating headache, and a cold smile formed on his lips.

"Brother Yu, what happened? Why did Song Lingyue suddenly explode?" Shao Tianyu asked Yu Xuanshan.

"How would I know? But her last words were, ’Xu Ping’an, you deceived me?’" Yu Xuanshan said with his hand on his head.

At this point, he couldn’t think straight at all; trying to think made his head hurt as if it was about to explode.

"She did say that, could it be the doing of Xu Ping’an?" Shao Tianyu also felt an unbearable headache.

But just as he finished speaking, his eyes bulged in horror, and he hurriedly pointed ahead as if he wanted to say something.

However, before he could speak, Yu Xuanshan’s head exploded.

Blood splattered, covering his whole body.

Shao Tianyu was stunned, looking at Xu Ping’an with a brass knuckle, who had just punched Yu Xuanshan’s head to pieces, his eyes filled with sheer terror.

"Xu... Xu Ping’an?" Shao Tianyu immediately cried out in alarm.

But as soon as his cry ended, Xu Ping’an had already appeared in front of him.

With the same punch, he exploded his head as well.

Shao Tianyu didn’t have time to think any further and was directly killed by Xu Ping’an.

Yan Wu, who had escaped the courtyard, knew the two were already dead when he heard the scream.

After cursing them as idiots in his heart, he hurried towards the Elders’ Courtyard.

He didn’t shout, although doing so at the moment would attract many people.

If Xu Ping’an couldn’t escape as a result, but what if Xu Ping’an didn’t die?

Then he would have made a mortal enemy out of him.

The mere thought of offending Xu Ping’an sent chills down Yan Wu’s spine.

So even if it meant letting Xu Ping’an go, he was unwilling to offend him lightly.

Xu Ping’an walked out of the courtyard, watching Yan Wu as he fled, and chuckled to himself.

Turns out to be a smart one.

Suddenly, Xu Ping’an sensed several whooshing sounds coming from afar.

"Someone’s coming." Xu Ping’an immediately spread his azure wings and, with a flicker, vanished into the void and disappeared.

Right after his disappearance, three elders flew in from different directions.

They landed in the courtyard simultaneously.

When they saw the scene within the courtyard, they were all dumbstruck.

"Who… who did this?" one of the elders roared.

This person was none other than Shao Tianyu’s grandfather, also the Great Elder of Shaoyang Heaven.

"Soul self-detonation? Was it Song Lingyue’s soul that self-detonated? Moon Cloud Heaven, what do you mean by this?" Demon Cloud Heaven’s Great Elder Kong Tianlu immediately turned to question an elder from Moon Cloud Heaven.

The Moon Cloud Heaven elder did not speak but began to investigate carefully.

"In this dissipating soul power, there’s another soul breath, seemingly that of Xu Ping’an." the Moon Cloud Heaven elder said.

Hearing this, the other two elders also began to use their perception.

Indeed, they sensed the presence of Xu Ping’an.

"Scoundrel!" the Shaoyang Heaven elder roared in anger.

"We’ve had a city-wide manhunt for him, and yet he dares to come under our noses to commit murder, completely disregarding us." Demon Cloud Heaven’s elder was even more filled with murderous intent.

When had they ever been humiliated like this?

Xu Ping’an was clearly slapping them in the face.

"Xu Ping’an must die, or else where will Heaven Beyond Heavens place our dignity?" the Moon Cloud Heaven elder said furiously.

"We must kill him! I will issue the Heavenly Slaughter Order; whoever can kill him, our Demon Cloud Heaven is willing to offer a piece of Dao Stone, ten carrier objects." Demon Cloud Heaven’s Great Elder said with bloodshot eyes.

With both Young Lords killed by Xu Ping’an’s hands, their Demon Cloud Heaven had practically lost their legacy.

How could they not avenge such a great enmity?

"Heavenly Slaughter Order? Dao Stone?" The elders from Moon Cloud Heaven and Shaoyang Heaven both showed looks of utmost surprise upon hearing this.

Demon Cloud Heaven was truly furious.

They had even issued the Heavenly Slaughter Order.

The Heavenly Slaughter Order was the most stringent manhunt order from the Ancient Times.

Once issued, it’s a fight to the death.

It meant that either Demon Cloud Heaven or Xu Ping’an could survive.
