"No!!!" The tiny remaining fragnt of Yuaan Yu’s Divine Soul let out a piercing shriek.
Death, truly arrived.
Yuaan Yu was certain she was really about to be annihilated, body and soul.
She no longer had any thods or Hidden Cards left; she’d reached the end of the road.
Yuaan Yu could only watch, rigidly, as that streak of Sword Light magnified in her pupils, becoming clearer and clearer, and in the end...
There was no "in the end."
Pitch black.
Death.
Yuaan Yu didn’t even have the chance to leave any final words. Before her last sliver of life vanished, her mind was still stuck in nothing but disbelief at the Grim Reaper’s arrival.
"Jiuyou, I’m sorry." Su Chen apologized to Jiuyou. In truth, he’d originally planned to heavily wound Yuaan Yu, then leave Yuaan Yu’s life to Jiuyou to take. But he never imagined that the Zhan Cang Sword Array would be too powerful—he couldn’t even manage to spare Yuaan Yu’s life.
"Tch, this young lady is already satisfied to death. Seeing Yuaan Yu die with my own eyes is enough. I should be thanking you." Jiuyou snorted. Obviously, the joy in her voice was even more direct and clear.
Su Chen was conversing with Jiuyou.
anwhile, within the entire Heaven Earth Ground...
Everything remained petrified for a long, long ti.
After Yuaan Yu died, the Jiuyou Domain she had borrowed, and the Strength of all the Martial Cultivators within the Jiuyou Domain, all returned to their owners.
The more than ten billion Martial Cultivators present all felt their Strength seem to swell by a notch.
This was a joyous matter.
Everything had been returned intact to its rightful owners.
Yet at this mont, not a single person felt joy; they were still imrsed in the scene of Su Chen instantly killing Yuaan Yu.
Su... Su... Su Chen really killed Lady Yuaanyu?!
The dignified master of a Sixth-Rank Power, even... even she could die?
It seed that in the entire Lightning Cloud System, it had been at least Ten Thousand Years since a powerhouse at the level of a Sixth-Rank Power’s master had died, right?
And Su Chen actually did it?
A youngster who wasn’t even in the Divine Lord Realm yet and not even Five Hundred Years Old did it!!!
The two simple words "Miracles" were no longer enough to describe such shock, were they?
Within the entire Heaven Earth Ground, for a full the ti it takes for an incense stick to burn, it was silent and utterly soundless.
Even when Su Chen had already walked to Sikong Yu’s side, it was still so quiet it was scary.
"Su... Su Chen, Lady Yuaanyu, she... she died, she was killed by you?" Sikong Yu lifted her head and looked at Su Chen, her voice stiff.
She had clearly seen it with her own eyes, yet it still felt like an illusion.
"Alright, let’s go back." Su Chen didn’t say much and spoke with a smile.
From beginning to end, even as Sikong Yu and Sikong Zhan accompanied Su Chen back to the Sikong House, they remained muddleheaded.
Only after Su Chen, Sikong Yu, and Sikong Zhan had left the Heaven Earth Ground for a long, long ti did the Heaven Earth Ground gradually regain sound; the more than ten billion Martial Cultivators within finally began to react.
Then the entire Jiuyou Domain exploded!
Completely exploded.
The Territory Master was dead—wasn’t this the biggest event in the history of the Jiuyou Domain?
Back then, when Jiuyou was betrayed and slain by Yuaan Yu, Yuaan Yu had done it in secret; no one saw it.
That was completely different from today, when more than ten billion Martial Cultivators simultaneously witnessed Yuaan Yu being obliterated.
Su Chen’s na instantly spread into the ears of the more than a hundred billion Martial Cultivators across the Jiuyou Domain.
It even continued to surge crazily outward into the ears of Martial Cultivators from other powers in the Lightning Cloud System.
It spread like a virus.
"Su Chen, Yuaan Yu is already dead; you can beco the Territory Master." Once they reached the Sikong House, Sikong Zhan finally managed to regain so rationality. Excited and agitated, he suddenly stopped, lifted his head to look at Su Chen, and said, "This old man will fully support you!"
"I can, but in so ti, I’ll be leaving the Jiuyou Domain. In the future, I’ll rarely, rarely return to the Jiuyou Domain. I only want the title of Lord of Jiuyou Domain; as for actually controlling the entire Jiuyou Domain, let Yuee’er handle it." Su Chen nodded.
In truth, if he hadn’t learned that once he beca Lord of Jiuyou Domain he would be able to draw upon the Strength of the entire Jiuyou Domain in future battles, Su Chen couldn’t even be bothered to hang onto the title of Territory Master.
"Ah?" Sikong Zhan and Sikong Yu were both stunned.
They had never expected this.
Both of them had thought that after Yuaan Yu’s death, Su Chen would naturally beco the Lord of Jiuyou Domain.
At worst, Jiuyou, the previous Lord of Jiuyou Domain, taking back her seat would also be perfectly reasonable.
The one thing they never imagined was that Su Chen actually intended to be a hands-off shopkeeper.
Sikong Zhan’s heartbeat sped up wildly; to say he wasn’t tempted would be a lie.
His own granddaughter was about to beco the actual controller of the Jiuyou Domain?
This was absolutely like a dream.
"I... I can’t do it." Sikong Yu, however, shook her head heavily. Her, becoming the Lord of a Domain? How was that possible? She felt she couldn’t even fully control the Sikong House, let alone be Lord of a Domain.
"How can you not? As long as I don’t die, no one will dare touch you. As for running the Jiuyou Domain, doesn’t the old man here have your back? Besides, even if the Jiuyou Domain declines in your hands, I won’t bla you." Su Chen lifted his hand and rubbed Sikong Yu’s small head, giving her encouragent.
When all was said and done, the Jiuyou Domain simply couldn’t satisfy the ambitions of Su Chen and Jiuyou.
It was just a tiny Sixth-Rank Power.
Even if it wasn’t managed well and fell into decline, neither Su Chen nor Jiuyou would feel any real heartache over it.
"This..." Sikong Yu didn’t know what to say; her mind was in chaos. Out of nowhere, Su Chen wanted her to beco the actual controller of the entire Jiuyou Domain. This... this was far too sudden.
"Enough. Yuee’er, go have a good rest, digest this a bit. We’ll talk again tomorrow." Su Chen said softly. Too much had happened tonight; Sikong Yu being a bit rattled was only natural—she needed ti to calm down.
As he spoke, Su Chen turned to look at Sikong Zhan. "Old man, regarding Wang Duan and Hong Yicang, what are your thoughts?"
"This old man will go talk to them." Sikong Zhan said with full confidence, "Old Man Waan and Old Man Hong are both smart n."
Su Chen nodded.
With Sikong Zhan’s words, that was enough.
As long as he himself fully supported this, and the Three Factions also fully supported it, then even though Sikong Yu was very young and her Strength was not great, it would still be possible to forcibly push her into the position of actual controller of the Jiuyou Domain.
After that...
Sikong Yu and Sikong Zhan left.
Su Chen, on the other hand, returned to his own Attic.
"There isn’t much ti left until the marriage alliance of the Tianheng Holy Realm’s Territory Master’s daughter." Su Chen muttered to himself. His departure from the Jiuyou Domain had already been put on the agenda. Of course, he still needed to stay in the Jiuyou Domain for a few days—only after successfully pushing Sikong Yu into the position of actual controller of the Jiuyou Domain could he leave.
Returning to the Attic...
Su Chen first pondered so of the matters to co, and then sank into cultivation.
At the sa ti...
The Tianheng Holy Realm.
Domain Lord’s Mansion.
Main building.
In the grand hall, several dozen Maids were serving a middle-aged man as he ate.
At the dining table, a middle-aged man in formal purple robes with a dignified expression was eating. Accompanying him were several beautiful won; they were his wives and concubines.
The middle-aged man was nad Shee Tianshi, the Territory Master of the Tianheng Holy Realm.
