Outer Gate Emperor had been trapped by Heaven and Earth Lock. Thanks to Hun Ji's strike, it no longer had the strength to fight back. Its aura had weakened to the extreme. It opened its mangled eyes and looked at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin used Instant Movement to appear before it. "You and I have no grudge between us. I'm killing you solely because of our opposing positions. This has nothing to do with right or wrong."
Outer Gate Emperor stared at Lu Yin. "I only want to know... what gives your... Heaven and Earth Lock... the power to trap me?"
"Is that your last wish?"
"Yes."
Lu Yin shook his head. "Sorry, I can't tell you."
Outer Gate Emperor closed its eyes. "You don't have to tell me. The universe... has always been like this. In my cultivation... I've destroyed countless... civilizations. If I had to explain to every... every civilization why I destroyed it, I'd never get any cultivation done."
"All I can say... is that your strength... was inferior to mine. Your life... was mine to take."
If he were only killing Outer Gate Emperor, Lu Yin wouldn't have had so many thoughts about it. But Outer Gate Emperor offered him so much to gain. An Eternal Life Realm cultivator was a resource, and a powerhouse like this was the greatest resource of all.
Behind Lu Yin, Hero Ranking Platform Hell appeared. He seized Outer Gate Emperor and tossed it inside.
Watching his karma increase, he fell silent.
Hun Ji sighed. "The road of cultivation is paved with corpses. That's perfectly normal. One day, someone will kill you too, and you'll become one of those bones. It's a law of the universe."
Lu Yin glanced at Hun Ji. "Senior, don't use me as an example."
Hun Ji
