From This Day Forward, This Place Is Our Clan's Territory

Above Heaven Dou City, Chu Yuan stood on empty air, with Di Tian and the other Ferocious Beasts behind him. Only Zi Ji and Bi Ji were absent.

"Hmph, those human scum actually occupy such a huge territory!" Xiong Jun folded his arms and looked down at the vast Heaven Dou City.

Humans were such a weak race, yet they occupied so much land. That was utterly impossible in the world of soul beasts.

Xiong Jun's face was full of disdain. To him, the residents of Heaven Dou City below were smaller than ants.

"Lord, can you let me fight alongside you this time?"

"I want to stretch my muscles too."

Xiong Jun looked at Chu Yuan with a fawning expression, all the disdain he had shown toward the humans gone without a trace.

Chu Yuan glanced at the simple-minded Xiong Jun and chuckled softly. "You want to stretch your muscles too? Fine. Once we return, I'll have Di Tian spar with you properly."

As he spoke, Chu Yuan turned his gaze toward Di Tian.

"Di Tian, once we return, make sure you help Xiong Jun stretch his muscles. His hide is thick, and he can take a beating."

Xiong Jun was instantly dumbfounded.

Although he refused to accept Di Tian's superiority, he also knew that he was no match for Di Tian now. After Di Tian broke through to nine hundred thousand years of cultivation, beating him was as easy as drinking water.

How did he know? When Di Tian had broken through, Xiong Jun's confidence had soared, and he had taken the initiative to challenge Di Tian, who had already reached nine hundred thousand years of cultivation.

The outcome was predictable. Di Tian had beaten his bear head into a pig head.

Of course, Di Tian might have hit so hard because he was dissatisfied with Xiong Jun.

"Lord, no, no..."

Chu Yuan waved a hand, directly cutting off Xiong Jun's remaining words. Then he took a step forward, and an ancient aura suddenly erupted from his body.

That aura instantly drew the attention of the powerful figures within Heaven Dou City.

"What's going on? There's someone in the sky!?"

The residents below raised their heads one after another, looking toward Chu Yuan in the air.

"He's flying. He's a Titled Douluo!"

Chu Yuan had no martial soul, so naturally he could not release one. The experts who noticed him therefore assumed he was a Titled Douluo.

"From this day forward, this place is our clan's territory."

As Chu Yuan's voice fell, a giant golden hand suddenly rose behind him.

At the same time, Di Tian and the other Ferocious Beasts behind him revealed their true forms.

They tightly surrounded the four directions of Heaven Dou City's gates.

Di Tian's dragon body, stretching for a thousand meters, instantly blocked out the sunlight. The previously clear skies above Heaven Dou City abruptly fell into darkness.

When the residents below saw Di Tian's thousand-meter-long body, they immediately descended into chaos.

"Soul beasts! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

The garrison within Heaven Dou City reacted swiftly.

With a rumble, a deafening sound rang out.

Everyone saw the giant hand floating behind Chu Yuan slowly descend with an overwhelming force.

The instant some tall buildings came into contact with the golden giant hand, they were reduced to ruins.

Looking at the overwhelming golden hand in the sky, the guards of Heaven Dou City wore panicked expressions, but none retreated.

They were loyal to Heaven Dou City, and their families were within it. Although they knew they could not possibly withstand the golden hand before them, they still released their martial souls and assumed defensive stances.

But their defenses were like paper before the golden giant hand Chu Yuan had casually summoned.

Boom!

With one palm strike, more than half of Heaven Dou City was nearly reduced to ruins. Chu Yuan had deliberately avoided the imperial palace with that strike.

The current emperor of Heaven Dou, Xue Ye, staggered out of the imperial palace. Officials supported him at his side, while a long procession of civil and military ministers followed behind him.

When Xue Ye and the officials saw the scene outside, their faces filled with despair.

"It's over. The Heaven Dou Empire is over!"

Xue Ye's eyes were bloodshot. As he looked at Chu Yuan, the one responsible for everything in the sky, his aged eyes were filled with venomous hatred.

"You beasts! How dare you destroy my Heaven Dou Empire! Aren't you afraid that Heaven will send down divine punishment and wipe out your soul beast race completely!?"

Xue Ye's snow-white hair hung loose over his shoulders. He looked utterly mad, like a crazed old man.

Chu Yuan looked at Xue Ye and the gathered ministers below, quickly searching the crowd for something. When his gaze landed on Xue Qinghe among them, his expression froze slightly.

"Qian Renxue and those two Titled Douluo aren't here."

Chu Yuan found it somewhat surprising. Within his perception, neither Qian Renxue, who was supposed to be disguised as Xue Qinghe, nor the two Titled Douluo secretly protecting her were present.

Moreover, Xue Qinghe was still the real Xue Qinghe, not Qian Renxue in disguise.

"So it's different from the original story..."

This was within Chu Yuan's expectations. After all, Xiao Wu's mother, who had died at Bibi Dong's hands in the original story, was still alive and well.

Therefore, he found it perfectly understandable that Qian Renxue had not carried out the infiltration plan as she had in the original story.

Chu Yuan's figure flashed, and in the next instant, he appeared behind Xue Ye and his civil and military officials.

"Outrageous! I am questioning you, yet you dare ignore me!"

Xue Ye had completely thrown caution to the wind. Heaven Dou City was destroyed, and these soul beasts would never spare them.

Rather than die in humiliation, he might as well vent properly before death.

Chu Yuan ignored the Xue Ye who kept barking behind him. But when his figure disappeared once more—

A crushing pressure instantly descended, pressing Xue Ye and his officials to death alive.

Chu Yuan appeared directly within the Heaven Dou Treasury.

With only a single glance, he spotted the diamond-shaped Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.

Chu Yuan slowly raised one hand, and the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud instantly flew into his palm. He directly stuffed it into the system space.

After leaving the treasury, Chu Yuan casually destroyed the Heaven Dou imperial palace behind him before arriving before Di Tian.

"Di Tian, bring some plant soul beasts from Star Dou Forest here. From today onward, this will be our territory."

Di Tian's face was full of reverence as he cupped his hands toward Chu Yuan. "This subordinate obeys!"

With one palm strike, he had destroyed the vast Heaven Dou City.

Lord's strength was truly terrifying!

Di Tian's heart shook violently.

Destroying a city was not difficult for him either, but he had yet to reach such a swift and effortless level.

"Oh, right. After bringing the plant soul beasts here, don't return. Go out to sea and find an island. Once you find one, use this Reverse Scale to notify me."

As Chu Yuan spoke, a golden Reverse Scale radiating an aura of destruction appeared in his hand, and he handed it to Di Tian.

"Yes, this subordinate obeys." Di Tian accepted the Reverse Scale.

He did not understand why his lord wanted him to find an island, but he understood one thing: his lord's orders had to be obeyed absolutely!
