The moment the words fell.
BOOM--!!!
A terrifying aura, indescribable in words, erupted from Lu Ming's seated body!
This aura was not Soul power, nor Divine Might. It was more ancient, more pure, more supreme!
It was a killing intent purified to the extreme!
The killing intent materialized, and the air in the courtyard instantly became viscous like water, every inch of space filled with a deathly aura that made the soul tremble.
Tang Hao's furious expression was instantly replaced by horror.
"You...!"
He only managed to utter one word before his entire being felt like it had plunged into a ten-thousand-zhang deep sea. The terrifying pressure surging from all directions made it incredibly difficult for him to even breathe.
His bones creaked, and the blood in his body felt as if it were about to freeze.
"What... what is this power?!"
Tang Hao's pupils suddenly contracted to the size of needle tips, and cold sweat streamed down his forehead.
His heart felt like it was being clutched by an invisible giant hand, almost stopping its beat.
"You... how can you be so strong?!"
He cried out in disbelief, his voice becoming sharp and distorted with fear.
This power was boundless and terrifying to the extreme!
He had once faced Qian Renxue, who had inherited the Angel God Position, and felt that resplendent Divine Might.
However, even Qian Renxue, who had just become a Deity, did not exert a fraction of the pressure on him that this man before him did!
In the face of this power, he felt as insignificant as an ant that could be crushed to death at any moment.
"Tang Hao."
Ye Qingxian's clear voice rang out. She stepped forward gracefully, standing beside Lu Ming, her phoenix eyes filled with disgust and determination.
"You insulted my Ye Family and oppressed the innocent. Today, you too shall meet your end!"
The shadow of death, unprecedentedly, enveloped Tang Hao's entire body.
He was afraid.
Completely and utterly afraid!
A grimace of forced ferocity, born from a face twisted by fear, appeared on his features.
"What... what do you want to do?!"
"I'm telling you! My son is Tang San! The successor to the Dual God Positions of the Sea God and Asura God!"
He roared with all his might, as if this were his last straw.
"You dare kill me?! My son Tang San will absolutely not let you go! He won't let your entire Ye Family go!"
"He will tear you to shreds!!"
However, the only response he received was Lu Ming's indifferent reprimand.
"Noisy."
Lu Ming didn't even bother to look at him again. He slowly raised his right hand and, with a casual gesture, slapped it towards Tang Hao.
There were no earth-shattering Soul Skills, no dazzling divine light.
It was just an ordinary palm strike.
But in Tang Hao's eyes, that hand grew infinitely larger, obscuring the entire sky and cutting off all his chances of survival!
"No--!!!"
The instinct for survival caused Tang Hao to unleash the strongest power of his life.
"Great Sumeru Hammer! Explode Ring!"
He roared madly, and all nine of his Spirit Rings exploded in an instant, transforming into the most violent energy that surged into the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand!
Buzz!!!
On the colossal Clear Sky Hammer, the dark red patterns blazed to their limit, and the entire hammer body exuded an aura of world-destroying power!
This was his strongest trump card, his pride as the Clear Sky Douluo!
"Break for me!!!"
Tang Hao poured the last ounce of his strength into it, swinging the Clear Sky Hammer, which condensed his lifelong cultivation, and smashing it fiercely towards the seemingly unremarkable palm.
However.
The next second.
Under Tang Hao's gaze, filled with terror and despair.
Crack--!
A crisp cracking sound rang out.
The Clear Sky Hammer, hailed as the Continent's Number One Tool Martial Soul, shattered inch by inch from the hammerhead the moment it touched Lu Ming's palm, like fragile glass!
Countless fragments splashed outwards.
That palm, its momentum undiminished, continued forward and pressed onto Tang Hao's chest.
"Pfft—!"
Tang Hao's protective soul power shattered instantly, like something made of paper.
His chest bones, all his bones, were crushed into powder under this palm strike.
He couldn't even let out a scream. His entire body exploded into a mist of blood like a punctured water bag.
A generation's Clear Sky Douluo, a powerhouse who shook the continent, Tang Hao.
Thus, he was utterly annihilated, body and soul.
In the last moment before his consciousness dissipated, only one thought remained in his mind.
"How... is this possible?"
"He knew my son was Tang San... Why... did he still dare to kill me?"
"Isn't he... afraid of my son's revenge?"
The mist of blood spread, and the courtyard returned to a deathly silence.
All the Ye Family members stared blankly at the scene, their minds completely blank.
Until a crisp and excited cheer rang out.
"Ancestor! Well killed!"
Ye Lingling's pretty face was flushed with excitement and relief. Her rounded jade legs, tensed from nervousness, finally relaxed.
They outlined a breathtaking curve, exuding a unique charm from her entire being.
"This kind of beast who bullies others with his power deserves to die!"
"Master! Beautifully done!"
Bai Xiuxiu jumped up even more excitedly and ran to Lu Ming's side, her clear big eyes sparkling with adoration.
"Who cares about the Sea God or the Asura God! Anyone who dares to be arrogant in front of Master must die!"
"So what if he's the Sea God's father? Wasn't he still killed by Master with a single slap!"
On the other side, Ah Yin stared blankly at the dissipating blood mist, her delicate body trembling slightly.
He's dead?
The man who had plagued her entire life, bringing her endless pain and humiliation, was dead just like that?
After a moment of stunned silence, two lines of clear tears slid from her beautiful eyes.
These were not tears of sorrow, but tears of liberation.
The knot in her heart, suppressed for ten thousand years, was finally, completely untangled at this moment.
Thump!
Ah Yin knelt before Lu Ming without hesitation, bowing her head deeply.
"Thank you, Benefactor, for ridding Ah Yin of this scoundrel!"
Her voice was thick with a nasal tone, filled with endless gratitude.
"Ah Yin has no way to repay your life-saving grace, Benefactor."
She raised her exquisite, tear-streaked face, her eyes incredibly firm.
"From this day forward, Ah Yin is willing to serve by your side for all eternity, to work like an ox or horse for you, to be your slave or maid, without a single complaint!"
Facing the Blue Silver Empress's pledge of loyalty, Lu Ming merely nodded faintly, accepting it.
However, not everyone was as excited as Ye Lingling and the others.
Several elders of the Ye Family, at this moment, had pale faces and sweat beading on their foreheads.
"Ancestor... this... what are we to do?"
One elder spoke with a trembling voice, his tone filled with worry.
"While that Tang Hao deserved to die, he is, after all, Tang San's father!"
"Tang San is now a Deity, holding the Dual God Positions of Sea God and Asura God, his strength is Unpredictable!"
Another elder chimed in, "Yes, Ancestor, although you have lived for over ten thousand years and your cultivation is heaven-reaching, but... but you might not be a match for that Dual God Position Tang San!"
"Our Ye Family is likely facing imminent disaster!"
