Saimengte Steps Forward

"Saimengte?" Upon hearing the name of this descendant, Cruz immediately frowned. If it were any other member of the clan, even a core disciple who had awakened the bloodline of the Sun-Shining Bird, he could have handed them over to Rog without hesitation.

But this Saimengte?

Although he was not his own son or grandson, but a descendant from countless generations removed, he was one of only two Sun-Illuminating Black Bird Divine Beast born in the entire Cruz Clan!

By the way,... [version].

In this world, only he and Saimengte possess the pure bloodline of the Sun-Illuminating Black Bird, so Saimengte's importance to the Cruz Clan is self-evident! Moreover, although he is the nominal patriarch of the Cruz Clan, this junior, Saimengte, has already surpassed him in strength. He can manage the other members of the Cruz Clan, but he may not be able to command Saimengte.

"Protecting your enemy? Mr. Rog, this must be a misunderstanding. I will have Saimengte come out right now, hand over that guy named Fulaite, and have Saimengte apologize to you. It must be that Saimengte has been deceived by that Fulaite!" It must be said that Cruz, with his blond curly hair and a kind face like a priest, was indeed very smooth in his dealings.

With just a few words, he shifted the blame entirely onto Fulaite, even demanding that Saimengte apologize. If he did that, he would indeed have no reason to target Saimengte.

A profound silence fell over the high sky. Even though countless gods resided on these islands, not a single one dared to breathe heavily or make a sound, for fear of disturbing this peerless powerhouse!

This time, Rog didn't change his form, and since Cruz immediately identified him, quite a few people recognized Rog. However, they didn't know what methods this person had used to overwhelm them all with his power.

At this moment, very few people dared to do anything superfluous, such as recording the Floating Shadow.

"Chief, leave this matter to me." At this moment, a serious-looking Saimengte also flew into the sky, subtly confronting Rog.

"Saimengte, you decide how to handle this! But if you do anything detrimental to the family, I will, in the name of Patriarch Cruz, expel you from the family!" Cruz, though he greatly admired this Legendary descendant.

However, he would not let the entire Cruz Clan perish for one person, not even this Saimengte!

"Yes, Patriarch. Today's events were entirely Saimengte own doing, and have nothing to do with the Cruz Clan!" As expected of the ' Son of the Sun God,' Saimengte possessed a unique personal charm. After he finished speaking, Cruz sighed, said nothing more, and flew directly back to the family's residence.

Today, no matter how the fight between Saimengte and Rog ends, it has nothing to do with the Cruz Clan.

"This Saimengte has some guts." Rog glanced at the extraordinary-looking fellow, who resembled an imperial prince, and his gaze gradually turned cold.

Instead of handing over Fulaite directly, he severed ties with the Cruz Clan. It seems that Saimengte is truly prepared to fight to the death for Fulaite!

Very well, then let me see where you get the audacity to speak like that!

Besides Saimengte, Fulaite also didn't hide, but instead flew through the air with Saimengte.

It wasn't that he didn't want to hide, but when Rog's terrifying divine sense swept over him, he knew he had been discovered. With his strength, running away would only lead to certain death, while staying behind, with Saimengte holding the line, might offer him a sliver of a chance to survive.

However, he was also filled with endless regret. As soon as Rog's powerful strength was unleashed, he directly refined a Soul Leech and thoroughly tortured Tedun, the Ghost Clan subordinate who had slandered him.

If this fool hadn't complained to him, how could he have possibly sent Li Wei and Anna to hunt down the other party?

This pursuit not only failed to achieve its intended revenge,

Instead, he lost one of his top generals, and now he has needlessly drawn out such a terrifying enemy! This Tedun truly deserves to die!

Even after he had tortured Tedun to death in every way, he still couldn't shake off the hatred in his heart.

As for Rog?

He was filled with fear, but now that the other party had come knocking on his door, he felt much more at ease, at least he no longer had to live in constant fear.

High in the sky, the blazing sun shone brightly, radiating heat like a scorching torch.

But at this moment, the Saint Cruz Archipelago seemed shrouded in a dark cloud, and everyone felt as if they were standing on the edge of an Arctic abyss, and couldn't help but shiver.

Just by standing there, Rog's mere presence exuded an aura that made Saimengte feel as if he were facing a formidable enemy.

"You're going to stop me?" In fact, Rog could have a million ways to bypass Saimengte and snipe Fulaite.

However, his grand gesture in coming to the Celestial Realm was not for the sake of the food; dealing with Fulaite was just a side matter. What truly concerned him was this Sun-Illuminating Black Bird Divine Beast!

"Rog, Fulaite is my closest friend. I can't just let you kill him like this!" Saimengte's expression was grave. Of course, he wasn't entirely confident at the moment. However, Fulaite's existence was indeed crucial to him, and he had to protect him as much as possible, no matter what.

Moreover, it's daytime now, so he might not be afraid of his opponent. If he can force them back during the day, he can take Fulaite to Theodore's place. Given how much the Sovereign and Theodore value him, perhaps there's a sliver of a chance, once he's thoroughly researched that...

Sooner or later, he will have a chance to make a comeback!

In that case, it will be him who forces Rog to flee for his life!

"Close friends? So, your relationship is so sincere and touching? Well then, you two, die together today!" After saying this, Rog looked directly at Saimengte, and a ethereal electric snake attack erupted from his eyes, rushing straight towards him.

Saimengte never expected that a casual glance from Rog could unleash such a terrifying Soul Attack, and instantly felt the shadow of death loom over his heart!

Saimengte is Super Divine Beast, the Sun-Illuminating Black Bird, possessing both an Offensive Sovereign Artifact and a Material Defense Sovereign Artifact. His soul defense capabilities are also astonishing; even a super strong individual like Mosi, who is highly proficient in souls, cannot harm him.

However, Rog is now Paragon High-God! Although his soul lightning serpent was just a casual Soul Attack, it contained the Willpower, and his Soul Essence is a hundred times stronger than that of other Highgod!

This attack would be absolutely unbearable for Saimengte unless he possessed Soul Defense Sovereign Artifact!

If anyone's to blame, it's probably Saimengte for being too overconfident!

"Block him!" Saimengte had indeed miscalculated; he could only blame himself for not being calm enough. If Rog hadn't reached the Paragon and was still at his previous strength, Semont could indeed have fought Rog.

However, now that Rog is a genuine Paragon High-God, no matter what trump cards Saimengte possesses, it will all be in vain!

That lightning bolt of soul energy crossed the dimensional space and descended upon Saimengte in an instant!

"Ugh!" There was also a layer of gray Soul Defense Divine Artifact outside Saimengte's soul, but this thing was completely useless in front of that soul lightning serpent!

Without even a moment's hesitation, the electric serpent of soul continued to surge forward, relentlessly crashing into Saimengte's Soul Ocean!

Within his Soul Ocean, there is a layer of golden innate light, which is a unique energy of Divine Beast Bloodline, capable of resisting external Soul Attack to a certain extent.
