Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 1180: Chapter 1181: God

From the moment Xiao Tianyu raised his hand and executed Mu Xie, everyone thought the Xiao Family was finished. The Grave Emperor would definitely never let the Xiao Family off. The Xiao Family’s Old Ancestor had even braced himself earlier and ordered Xiao Tianyu to go to the Mu Family to plead guilty, only to be taught a harsh lesson by Xiao Tianyu and then no longer dared to say more.

When the Grave Emperor arrived, the Xiao Family’s Old Ancestor even tried to shift all of the Xiao Family’s problems onto Xiao Tianyu.

Only now did everyone finally understand why Xiao Tianyu dared to kill Mu Xie—because he didn’t even put the Grave Emperor in his eyes. With a single palm, he镇杀ed him on the spot.

The Grave Emperor, the most terrifying figure in Mountain and Sea City, the one and only "Emperor" within Mountain and Sea City—yet who could have imagined that this Grave Emperor who arrived overbearingly, was turned into dust in an instant, scattered to the winds?

That meant Xiao Tianyu’s strength was above the Grave Emperor’s. He not only suppressed the Grave Emperor with a single palm, he also slew the Xiao Family’s Old Ancestor and the others.

You ask what true dominance is? This is dominance.

You ask what true arrogance is? This is arrogance.

In Mountain and Sea City, aside from Xiao Tianyu, who else could possibly镇杀the Grave Emperor? What’s even more ridiculous is that the Xiao Family tried again and again to hand over Xiao Tianyu. With that, how could that Xiao Family Old Ancestor not die?

From this day on, in Mountain and Sea City, there would truly be no more Mu Family. Even if the Mu Family was an officially authorized force stationed in Mountain and Sea City, would the Eastern Victory Divine Emperor care about such a trivial matter here? Naturally he wouldn’t. The Mu Family is destroyed, then it’s destroyed; no one will avenge them.

Especially when the remaining Mu Family experts felt Xiao Tianyu’s icy gaze sweep over, each of their hearts trembled violently. The Grave Emperor might be dead, but they had no desire to be buried with him.

"Spread the word. From now on, whoever dares lay a hand on the Xiao Family, let this Grave Emperor be the best example. And don’t expect your Divine Emperor to meddle in this. Even if your Eastern Victory Divine Emperor personally comes, it will be useless!"

Buzz~

As his voice fell, a terrifying divine radiance burst forth from Xiao Tianyu’s body, illuminating the entire void, and the whole Mountain and Sea City was shrouded under ten thousand rays of divine light from the void. Not only that, Xiao Tianyu’s aura suddenly changed once more—sacred, transcendent, inviolable.

In this moment, it wasn’t just the Xiao Family. You could say that dozens of cities outside Mountain and Sea City were all covered by this endless divine light. Those blinding beams hung in the firmament like suns, shining down on the earth.

Endless crowds all raised their heads toward the void. Even if they didn’t know where this light came from, they vaguely sensed something.

Especially within the Xiao Family compound—whether it was the Xiao clansmen or the people outside the Xiao estate—every single one of them was terrified.

To them, Xiao Tianyu felt like a god standing high above all living things.

Thinking back to what Xiao Tianyu had just said, everyone was even more horrified. Could it be that what erupted from his body was divine light? How... how was that possible?

Gods—how noble, how unreachable. How could he possibly be a god?

Across the Unparalleled Nine Provinces, there were only nine gods in total.

And now, with divine light bursting forth from Xiao Tianyu’s body, just thinking about it, how unbelievable was this?

Gods, unreachable; gods, their status utterly supreme. If you don’t see it with your own eyes, who could believe that everything before them is real?

In fact, at the very instant Xiao Tianyu burst out with divine light, many still thought that couldn’t be divine light. Yet the Xiao Tianyu standing there had an aura that was detached from the mortal world; under his radiance, all things seemed like mere ants.

In that case, if this wasn’t divine light, then what was it?

Even if they had never seen a god, they had heard the legends.

The reason Xiao Tianyu released divine light was, of course, for the sake of the Xiao Family. After all, the one he had just killed was the Grave Emperor—an official figure. If those above decided to pursue the matter, the Xiao Family would still be hard-pressed to escape calamity. Besides, Xiao Tianyu couldn’t possibly stay in the Xiao Family for the rest of his life.

Therefore, Xiao Tianyu chose to unveil his true strength to instill fear.

He knew very clearly: as long as he revealed his power, then in this world, aside from those nine Great Emperors of the Unparalleled Nine Provinces, no one would dare touch the Xiao Family—unless they wanted to offend Xiao Tianyu, this god.

Of course, as long as they weren’t idiots, no one would be willing to offend a god—unless they were tired of living.

"Grandfather, th-this... what exactly is this light? Why have I never seen it before?" Xiao Feng couldn’t help asking. Xiao Feng was a Martial Immortal, so he had naturally seen immortal light. But this kind of radiance on Xiao Tianyu’s body—he had never seen it.

Not only that, Xiao Tianyu’s aura was completely different from before—so sacred, like the Sovereign of all beings.

"I’ve never seen it either!" Xiao Zhenshan’s heart was equally restless. He continued, "According to the ancient records, this kind of radiance should be divine light. But I still find it hard to believe... or maybe the ancient records were mistaken?"

"So that means... my master might actually be a supreme god?"

"He should be," Xiao Zhenshan nodded.

Hearing this, the waves in Xiao Xin’s heart surged even more violently. Was Big Brother Xiao really a god?

"Actually, I’m a Martial God!" At this moment, Xiao Xin remembered what Xiao Tianyu had told her earlier. So Big Brother Xiao hadn’t been bragging at all—he really was a god, lofty and unreachable.

So gods could also be like ordinary people, coming to our home as a guest.

In the eyes of a god, Mountain and Sea City was nothing but the mortal world.

Yet now, that god who stood high above had descended upon the Xiao Family, taken Xiao Feng as a disciple, and even called her, Xiao Xin, brother and sister. Just thinking about it felt unreal.

Then again, no wonder. In their understanding, gods were always high above, beyond reach. How could they possibly descend to the mortal world and become sworn siblings with ordinary people?

"My master... is really a god?" Xiao Feng still found it hard to believe.

Seeing this, everyone within a radius of a hundred li understood one thing very clearly: from today on, whether it was Mountain and Sea City or any major power, none of them would dare offend the Xiao Family. For no other reason than this—because the Xiao Family had a god, on par with those Martial Gods of the Unparalleled Nine Provinces.

Thinking back on it, it was almost laughable.

The Grave Emperor had come from afar, imposing and overbearing, intending to kill Xiao Tianyu—yet up to his dying breath, he probably never knew that the one he offended was a god.

The Xiao Family’s Old Ancestor had even wanted a god to go and plead guilty.

Tell me, in the vast Nine Provinces, who could possibly be qualified to have a god plead guilty to them? The Mu Family—were they worthy?

To offend divine majesty was a crime beyond death.

"Still not scramming?" Xiao Tianyu’s gaze swept down over the remaining Mu Family experts. One by one, they felt as if they’d been granted amnesty. Of course, they understood that it was simply because Xiao Tianyu disdained to kill them, so he couldn’t be bothered to act.

After the remaining Mu Family experts left, Xiao Tianyu’s gaze fell on Xiao Xin, making her incomparably nervous. She could honestly say she had never been this nervous before.

Then Xiao Tianyu looked at Xiao Xin and calmly spat out two words: "I’m leaving."

Leaving, just like that? Her heart felt unbearably heavy.

Hearing Xiao Tianyu’s words, a sudden wave of loss surged through Xiao Xin’s heart. But she knew that Xiao Tianyu and she were never people from the same world. Sooner or later he would leave, she just hadn’t expected it to be so soon.
