In the central palace of some great city.
The melodious sound of bronze instruments rippled through the air.
Hundreds of dancers swayed gracefully.
On the main seat sat a bald, burly man over three meters tall. His skin was flushed red, and his body was covered in the unique markings of his race. He wore gleaming black armor while several beautiful women of other races served him at his side. He laughed and drank as his hands roamed over them, thoroughly enjoying himself.
The aura of his cultivation realm was astonishingly that of a Four Yuan Martial Emperor Grade expert!
The people in the two rows below, including Martial Emperor and Martial King Grade experts, were also indulging in this extravagant pleasure... The entire palace was filled with laughter and contentment.
Suddenly—
Blades of space appeared out of nowhere, sweeping across the necks of all the Martial Emperor and Martial King Grade experts at an unbelievable speed before vanishing without a trace.
In the blink of an eye, the laughter throughout the hall abruptly weakened, leaving only the Four Yuan Martial Emperor Grade expert still reveling.
But when he sensed the life auras of the numerous Martial Emperor and Martial King Grade experts around him suddenly vanish, his pupils abruptly shrank, and every hair on his body stood on end!
He had just begun to unleash his might and take a weapon from his Space Ring when, before he could even rise, he felt a chill at his neck.
His eyes widened. He reached up and wiped his neck, only to find fresh blood staining his fingers.
"Wh... who is it?!"
As his voice fell, the entire world in his vision turned upside down. His head rolled to the ground amid the terrified screams of the beautiful women serving nearby.
