Chapter 1363 - 551: Earth-Shattering Strike Slays the Demonic Horde (Part 2)

The smooth marble instantly cracked open.

"Bastard! Pass the order down, all cultists, at any cost, must stop that demon!"

With a command, thousands of troops, mighty and grand, set out.

Sworn to a bloody battle to the end with that arrogant Vampire.

"Zhang Beixing, wait for me! I want to see how long you can remain arrogant!"

The Pope gritted his teeth, his eyes red.

He knew this battle concerned the survival of the Holy See.

If lost, there might never be a day of recovery.

However, faced with the overwhelming Dark Legion.

The defenders of the Holy City were retreating step by step.

Even the Holy Knights, known as undefeated, crumbled in this killing flood.

"How could this be... Lord, is light destined to be enveloped by darkness?"

Countless believers knelt on the ground, tears streaming.

They simply couldn’t understand why the dignified Holy See suffered such a severe blow.

How terrifying is that Vampire King?

Just as everyone was at a loss, a sudden change occurred.

Boom!

An earth-shattering explosion suddenly erupted.

The entire Holy City was swaying under this impact.

Numerous cultists were knocked to the ground, covered in blood.

"What’s happening? Who did this?"

The Pope’s expression changed dramatically, scrambling out of the main hall.

Only to see a black-robed figure floating in mid-air.

Angelic wings spread behind, majestic and awe-inspiring.

"Pope, long time no see."

Zhang Beixing held a cold smile at the corner of his lips, speaking leisurely.

As if merely exchanging pleasantries with an old acquaintance.

"Arrogant! A mere Vampire dares to be impudent before me?"

The Pope was livid, swung his scepter to smash at him.

Whoosh!

The fierce wind of the scepter came whistling, carrying overwhelming power.

Yet, before it touched Zhang Beixing in the slightest.

The black-haired man waved his hand lightly.

Crash!

Countless light points exploded in the air, turning into stardust all over the sky.

All attacks were annihilated.

"With just this skill, you wish to harm me?" Zhang Beixing mocked, utterly fearless.

"You... What exactly are you?!"

The Pope was completely stunned, retreating repeatedly.

He never dreamed that the Holy See’s treasure would fail so easily.

"Thing? You overestimate yourself."

Zhang Beixing laughed coldly, standing with hands behind his back.

His teasing gaze surveyed the opponent up and down.

As if appraising a product, estimating its value.

"I’m merely the true ruler of this world."

With his words, the sky and earth seemed to shatter.

Everyone felt dizzy, nearly passing out.

This dominance, such presence...

Indeed, extraordinary!

"What... What do you want?" the Pope trembled.

"Don’t be nervous, I’m here to ’talk’ with you."

Zhang Beixing spoke leisurely, the corners of his lips subtly rising.

"But before that..."

He lightly added a chilling remark.

"I must first settle some ’private vendetta’."

Before his words fell silent, Soul Devourer was unsheathed.

Spurt!

The blade pierced through the chest, blood splattering.

That was the Demon Race’s army, attacking at this moment!

"Hah, speak of Kaelen Varrus, and he appears."

Zhang Beixing dismissed it with a smile, seemingly anticipating it.

He turned around, coldly gazing at the arrival.

The leader was none other than.

The new Demon King Talons!

"Zhang Beixing, prepare to die!"

Talons sneered, his eyes blood-red.

The murderous aura emanated terrifyingly.

"Mere ants dare to show off before the King?"

The black-haired man repeatedly sneered, entirely unimpressed.

"I thought what role you’d play, turns out merely this."

The tone was contemptuous, each word striking at the heart.

Talons was enraged and embarrassed upon hearing this.

He roared and charged straight toward him.

Black mist spread, obscuring the sky.

Yet, before he got close.

Whoosh!

A fierce Sword Qi suddenly shot forth.

Slash!

The blade pierced the throat, blood gushed out.

Talons fell on cue, lifeless with no sound.

The mighty Demon King, defeated and buried in sand.

He could no longer harm a single strand of Zhang Beixing’s hair.

"Ha, utterly vulnerable."

The black-haired man glanced disdainfully at the corpse on the ground, retracting the Soul Devourer.

Raising his eyes, his gaze settled once more on the Pope.

"Now, it’s your turn."

The Pope, scared out of his wits, crawled and prostrated on the ground.

"Spare me! I am willing to submit to you, Dark Emperor!"

The voice of bitter pleading, filled with endless humility.

"That’s more like it."

Zhang Beixing nodded in satisfaction.

"Remember your vow, if you dare to break it..."

The tone shifted, murderous intent erupted.

"I will make you wish for death."

Having said that, he turned leisurely, strides long as he departed the Holy City.

His tall silhouette walked against the light.

Dark Emperor Zhang Beixing, single-handedly swept through the Holy See, slaying Demon King.

His steps firm, leading the Dark Legion forward unstoppably.

Behind him lay scorched earth and ruins, the once glorious Holy City now only remnants.

"Beixing, you really did it..." Alina’s red lips slightly parted, her eyes flowed.

Her tone full of reverence and pride; this man finally unified the world.

"Master, wise and mighty, how fortunate are we to follow by your side!" Richard knelt on one knee, full of fighting spirit.

The Dark Empire will surely command ages, eternal through time!

[Host, congratulations, finally annihilating all the greatest enemies.] The sound of the Persuasion System, filled with genuine joy.

[Now, nothing in this world can obstruct your steps.]

Zhang Beixing’s smile widened slightly, hands clasped amid a distant gaze.

Indeed, from a mundane youth to an emperor second only to none.

He has traversed many hardships, paid with blood and sweat aplenty.

And now, dreams have at last touched reality.

Yet...

At this moment, an unexpected news suddenly delivered.

"Report! Your Majesty, it is grim news!" A scout rushed in panic, face pale.

"From the west... a powerful figure claiming to be the ’Light Envoy’ has arrived, their forces attacking like wildfire!"

"Our army suffers successive defeats; the tide has turned!"

At these words, there was an uproar from all sides.

The entire Dark Legion changed color, chattering loudly.

"Light Envoy? What is that?"

"Could it be reinforcements from the Holy See? But haven’t they already surrendered..."

Panic spread, the arrogance of earlier dissipated.

Zhang Beixing furrowed his brows, lost in thought.

West... Light...

Could it be, in this world, another power exists beyond my reach?

"Beixing, things might not be so simple..." Alina’s slender frame trembled, eyes full of worry.

Her sixth sense warned her, this sudden enemy is no ordinary foe.

"Master, our army suffered heavy losses, it’s difficult to hold on." Richard’s face was also full of distress, caught in a dilemma.

Facing such an unprecedented formidable enemy, can the Dark Empire remain undefeated?

[Host, the situation is critical, please be extra cautious.] The Persuasion System’s voice carried a hint of gravity.

[I searched through Ancient Texts, but found no records of the ’Light Envoy’.]

An ominous foreboding lingered in everyone’s heart.

The entire Dark Empire was plunged into silence.

At this moment, Zhang Beixing suddenly laughed towards the sky.

"Hahahaha, splendid!"

His bold voice echoed across the sky.

Stunning all who heard it.

"I thought it was some formidable character, but it turns out to be mere puff!"

Vampire King’s lips curled into a confident smile, showing no panic.

As if this unexpected turn had been anticipated all along.

"Send the order, gather elite forces from the Four Seas, ready to set off soon."

"I want to see this ’Light Envoy’, and the skills they possess!"

As the words landed, heaven and earth fell silent.

No one questioned, no one dared to comment.

"I am willing to strive for His Majesty, facing fire and death, without hesitation!"

The ministers echoed in unison, full of vigor.

At this moment, everyone understood.

No matter how many hardships lie ahead, the Dark Emperor will forge onward.

"Beixing, I will stand by you forever..." Alina said firmly.

As long as this man exists, she is fearless.

"Master, we are all behind you!" Richard shouted fervently, eyes brimming with tears.

The soldiers of the Dark Empire, each brave and gallant.

[Host, no matter what happens, I will assist you until the very end.] The Persuasion System solemnly promised.

[Because, the future of this world is yours alone!]

Zhang Beixing looked around, an unprecedented power surged within him.
