Chapter 3321 - Everyone Has to Die
Chapter 3321 - Everyone Has to Die
Half of the eminents had been slaughtered like chickens before they could even touch Tianming. The whole space around them was filled with scattered astrons. They were completely terrified when their number fell to eight. Even Eminent Baigui's expression was completely different from before.
He was completely covered in blood and his entire body was shaking in fear. The worst part of all was how the mobile stareye couldn't be activated at all. They were like caged beasts in Tianming's vast territory.
"Scatter and escape!" Eminent Baigui didn’t even care about the children. He was superior to tenth-level foundationeers, yet the slaughter had terrified him. The other eminents had been waiting for the order to escape and immediately went their own way. Some headed toward Greensource, while others tried escaping the mundus. The eminents of House Yumo were running with their tails between their legs, having completely crumbled.
"You came all the way here, so you have to enjoy our hospitality. Isn't that what your ancestors so painstakingly built the mobile stareye for?" Tianming chuckled. With Fiveway Blitzrun, he chased down eminent after eminent who had their backs facing him.
"Do you think you can run? No matter where you go within my territory, your final destination is still the yellow springs of the underworld!" Even tenth-level foundationeer eminents were instantly destroyed by Tianming's sword. Cries of agony echoed throughout the lonely astralscape. No gods or mortals would come to their aid.
This was what true despair was like.
"The people who live here follow the laws of the world and go about their own lives. Yet outsiders like you brandish your strength and treat them like livestock, killing them as you please! Can you imagine the despair they felt?
"Killing them is one thing, but you even trap their souls for your own use. Is that what a ruler should act like? Is it befitting of Myriadpath Valley? Your entire race is defined by that very thing!
"I'll teach you what true despair is like. You’ll learn that there are those who are stronger than you that won’t hesitate to dominate you with absolute power, just as you’ve done to these people. Someone stronger will come along and wipe you all out like the innocents you’ve wiped out. No life can remain at the top of the food chain forever!"
He went around killing eminents as he continued his diatribe. Apart from Eminent Baigui, the eighteen other eminents were dead. Only he was left alive. If it weren’t for the baleful souls trapped within their bodies, Tianming wouldn't have killed them so easily.
Eminent Baigui was powerful, but not even he had been able to touch Tianming. He was the most slippery of all of them and had chosen to escape toward Greensource. He had figured out Tianming's relationship to these worlds; only by escaping into the crowd and threatening him with their lives would he stand a chance to survive!
"Eminent Baigui, do you think you can match me in a competition of speed?" Lightning crackled and thunder roared. White lightning bolts turned into countless electrical snakes that spread across the body of the white-haired youth. In an instant, he zoomed ahead of Eminent Baigui and blasted him in the opposite direction. When Tianming looked up, the radiance from his eyes seemed to completely pierce Eminent Baigui.
The eminent grit his teeth as his sanity slipped. "Li Tianming, I know now! This entire mundus is yours! All we’ve done is destroy a single star. You have tens of millions of nova source worlds, so it’s nothing but a single hair among countless strands! You've already killed nineteen eminents of House Yumo. Isn’t that enough for you to vent your rage? Spare me and I’ll warn the Three Exalted Houses to never oppose you in the future. We won’t touch your mundus in the slightest."
Tianming smirked. "Are you saying that the lives of those nineteen eminents are more precious than all the lives of an entire world?"
Eminent Baigui seemed shocked. It was the most obvious thing to him; was there even room for discussion? From the point of view of Myriadpath Valley, even a single eminent was worth more than all the life on a single star.
"I was mistaken. Myriadpath Valley will make it up to you! How about twenty kegs of springwater?" Eminent Baigui said in desperation.
"Looks like you don't understand me at all," Tianming said.
"What in the world do you want?!" the specter roared.
Tianming pointed the black-and-gold sword projection at him and bellowed, "I want you to die. After your death, I’ll kill those three young ones with the omnisentient lives as witness. I’ll thoroughly destroy your mobile stareye and render the Yumo Blood Crucible completely unusable!"
Tianming turned and looked at his black myriadpath ring with a smirk. "One day, I’ll return to Myriadpath Valley. Anyone in House Yumo who has absorbed starblood will be killed without exception! If your entire house absorbed it, then everyone has to die! Do you understand, Eminent Baigui? It is not negotiable!" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tianming made sure that he was understood. Eminent Baigui was completely aware of his rage and determination. There was no reconciling people on two completely diverging paths.
"Lifeforms exist on different tiers! House Yumo has climbed the food chain to reach its very top. There’s no such thing as a life that's completely innocent! The world is built on the laws of natural selection. It’s a universal truth that applies both in Myriadpath Valley and the mortal realms! How could someone as talented as you espouse laughable, lofty ideals such as those? There’s no way you'll have a bright future if your comprehension is so poor!"
Eminent Baigui turned into a minor astral giant and laughed as he darted toward Greensource. That was his personal creed. Tianming's actions were completely laughable according to his and House Yumo's worldview.
"I thought you were terrifying, but now I know you're nothing but a naive, immature brat who doesn't even know about the law of nature. You can only dream of exterminating House Yumo with that attitude! You're nothing but a stupid brat with a big blade that you're comically undeserving of!"
"So, at the end of the day, you believe that I'm wrong and that the lives of the people living in the star ahead of you aren't worth anything at all?" Tianming's cold voice became clearer as he caught up to Eminent Baigui.
"That's right! You finally get it!" Eminent Baigui exclaimed.
"Then turn back and look! Witness the ones who raise the executioner's blade above your head!" Tianming's thundering voice shook his eardrums and rumbled through his body.
