Chen Mo slowly approached Xue Ye's side.

Trembling and panicked, Xue Ye asked, "What... what do you want to do?"

Chen Mo chuckled teasingly, "Compared to your current expression, I admire your previous arrogant demeanor much more."

Xue Ye's face flushed red. "You, you..."

Chen Mo looked around. Everyone lowered their heads. No one dared to meet his gaze. The loyal ministers who were not afraid of death had all died long ago and could not possibly be alive now.

It's not that these guards were disloyal; they were loyal to the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, but equally loyal to their own lives.

They might have been willing to die for Xue Ye's life if they could see even the slightest glimmer of hope, but they all knew very well that even if they died, it wouldn't change anything.

Chen Mo laughed, "It seems no one is coming to save you anymore. Should I kill you now, or wait a few more minutes and see if a miracle happens?"

Xue Ye gave a bitter laugh, then seemed to have come to a realization, glancing at the dozen or so servants beside him.

"You can live. Tell the Crown Prince that he doesn't need to avenge me; the Heaven Dou Empire should be the priority."

The guards all knelt down and wept bitterly.

"His Majesty..."

"Your Majesty, please leave quickly, I'll take your place... uh."

A few of them tried to struggle a little longer, hoping to protect Xue Ye's life, but unfortunately, they weren't the main characters, so they couldn't unleash their full potential or achieve a miracle. They were all beheaded by Chen Mo with a single blow.

Knowing he was doomed, Xue Ye regained his former majesty. "Enough! This is my order. Live on. This calamity for the Heaven Dou Empire is my fault."

Furthermore, the Star Luo Empire will definitely take action. You all must survive, Left Crown Prince, the Heaven Dou Empire needs your help...

Chen Mo and the other three simply watched Lengleng as Xue Ye gave her last words, without making any move.

After he finished speaking, Chen Mo beheaded him with a single stroke, and the Xue Ye fell from grace.

Chen Mo used his True Essence and Spiritual Sense to spread his voice throughout the entire palace, and even to the Heaven Dou City: "Your emperor— Xue Ye —I killed him. Tell your former emperor that if he wants revenge, he can do so anytime, but remember, he only has one chance. After that, the Heaven Dou Empire will become history..."

Subsequently, Chen Mo used his spatial abilities to hang Xue Ye's head on the city wall of Heaven Dou City and set up a simple formation for everyone to see.

Kill their emperor, seize their heart, and take control of their kingdom!

Upon hearing this news, everyone stopped what they were doing, including the Military who were still fighting amongst themselves. They all put down their weapons, their faces showing confusion.

Their fear of Chen Mo clearly outweighed their hatred; they might curse him a couple of times, but if it came to actually fighting him, they would absolutely shake their heads.

This battle has completely shattered their morale and pride; they no longer have the courage to draw their swords against Chen Mo.

On the other side, the Stargazing Tower.

"No, Father..."

Xue Qinghe was weeping bitterly, muttering that he wanted to avenge his father, but he was naturally stopped by his subordinates.

Qian Renxue was just putting on an act; she would never actually go looking for death.

Although the Heaven Dou Empire suffered heavy losses at this moment, the biggest winner was none other than Crown Prince Xue Qinghe.

The emperor must die before the crown prince can ascend the throne!

Ning Fengzhi was naturally aware that Xue Qinghe was putting on an act, but his expression of grief and indignation was so convincing.

Indeed, every member of the Imperial Family is a qualified actor.

Ning Fengzhi comforted him from the side, saying, "Your Highness, please take care of your grief. The Heaven Dou Empire."

Your Highness, please pull yourself together and step forward to take charge for the sake of the Heaven Dou Empire...

With Ning Fengzhi's statement, it meant that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was on his side, so Xue Qinghe stopped pretending and took advantage of the situation.

She quickly regained her composure and calm, though her eyes still revealed joy and excitement.

Qian Renxue: I am finally about to completely control the entire Heaven Dou Empire. The great cause of the Spirit Hall will surely be completed under my leadership, but...

Qian Renxue thought of the strength Chen Mo had displayed; it was truly beyond what Titled Douluo should possess, and even her grandfather probably couldn't do it.

After Chen Mo and his three companions finished what they were doing, they prepared to leave on the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle.

However, before leaving, Chen Mo planned to give the Heaven Dou Empire another great gift.

There's no better farewell ceremony than a fireworks display; if there is, then let's have another one.

Apollo (fourth order)

An alchemist who can't kill isn't a qualified spell destroyer.

This item was created by a wicked and irresponsible destroyer of the Dharma. Apart from its great power, it has no other advantages.

Comment: Praise the sun!!!

This is an item that Chen Mo obtained from a treasure chest. It might not be very useful for powerful individuals, but it's perfect for this situation.

Let them remember this day forever, and never forget their fear of Chen Mo and his men!

Every year on this day, they recall the fear of being dominated by Chen Mo.

As Chen Mo and his companions departed in their Cloud-Piercing Shuttle, Apollo began its freefall through the air.

At this moment, Qian Renxue was envisioning a bright future Stargazing Tower, while Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong had just come downstairs, preparing to lead the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School members back to their sect.

Just then, a terrifying energy suddenly erupted, engulfing the entire palace in Lie Yan.

"Not good..."

Gu Rong, the ninety-fifth Titled Douluo, immediately activated his Martial Soul Avatar to protect Ning Fengzhi.

At the same time, She Long, Snake Lance Douluo, and Ci Xue and Porcupinefish Douluo disregarded their identities and immediately activated their Martial Soul Avatar to protect Qian Renxue.

On the other side, in the distant Cloud-Piercing Shuttle, Chen Mo watched as a white light suddenly shone in the center of the palace, illuminating the world like the sun.

Immediately following was a violent explosion; scorching flames engulfed the entire palace, and the powerful shockwave destroyed a third of the entire Heaven Dou City.

The number of casualties reached millions, and even Chen Mo and others, who were more than ten kilometers away, could feel a strong shockwave.

A dark, mushroom-shaped cloud with reddish tinges slowly rose into the sky.

That's truly spectacular!

Even Chen Mo himself was somewhat taken aback. Indeed, Art is an Explosion!

Lin Yaodong, Xiao Wu, and Chen Mo were equally shocked and couldn't help but swallow hard.

Is this what happened from that little gadget?

This is terrifying!

On the other side, near the Imperial Palace's Stargazing Tower.

Only Gu Rong and Ning Fengzhi remain from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and they are in dire straits, their Soul Power exhausted and their injuries severe, threatening their lives at any moment.

The clothes and everything else had long been burned away, and the exposed panels were riddled with craters from the fire.

Gu Rong were one thing, but Ning Fengzhi, who used to be a handsome man, now had an indescribable ferocity and terror on his face...
