Chapter 2255: Everything Erased

“Stop!”
“Protect his majesty!”
The guards were all horrified, but not even the leader, Li Guanshi, could stop Zu An in time, let alone anyone else.
Fortunately, a figure appeared in front of Zhao Ruizhi and sent a palm out, delaying Zu An’s attack slightly. Both he and Zhao Ruizhi flew backward a hundred meters before finally standing still again, and then he coughed out a mouthful of blood. Bi Qi exclaimed, “Regicide! Zu An wants to kill the emperor!”
When they heard the shouts, Li Guanshi and the other guards all drew their weapons to surround Zu An.
Wang Bolin and Zhang Zitong exchanged a look. They clenched their teeth and said, “Men, protect her highness!”
They knew this was the chance to make their choice. They could only follow the regent to the end now. If they watched the regent lose without doing anything, they would definitely be eliminated by the emperor’s faction after the fact. Soon after, the Armed Escort Division and Li Guanshi clashed.
Piao Duandiao and Jiao Sigun clenched their teeth. “Brothers, we’re going to stake it all!”
They were close to Zu An and the empress, and thus would naturally help them.
The Embroidered Envoys secretly asked Xiao Jianren, “What should we do now?”
Normally, the Embroidered Envoy only listened to the Chief Commander and his majesty’s orders. The fact that they even had to ask this question meant that they were already wavering.
Xiao Jianren said seriously, “Help the empress and the regent!”
“Understood!” The Embroidered Envoys all sighed in relief. They then rushed at the imperial guards commanded by Li Guanshi. The balance of victory soon started to tip.
Zu An looked at Zhao Ruizhi and Bi Qi, asking, “Which one of you is the Doomsday Spirit and which one is the Plague Monarch?”
Their expressions changed, and they sent their ‘greetings’ to all of the Thousand-Footed Elder’s relatives.
That guy actually told him everything!
“What are you talking about? I don’t understand. Cease trying to slander me and his majesty,” Bi Qi said with a cold snort.
Zu An looked at the two of them with amusement. “According to the information I obtained before, both of you seemed to be quite cunning. I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to find you, and would have to always act reactively. And yet, the two of you actually chose to become such prominent big figures! I don’t know whether to say your luck is bad, or if you two really are stupid.”
Zhao Ruizhi and Bi Qi’s expressions immediately darkened.
You have successfully trolled the Doomsday Spirit for +745 +745 +745…
You have successfully trolled the Plague Monarch for +745 +745 +745…
How could they not be angry? They were quite proud of their disguises, and they had a huge advantage. They had been in the best position to stir up conflict within the human race, and use their own power to wear down Zu An. And yet because of their rashness today, they had made a huge mistake and were exposed. How could they have anticipated that the seemingly easy to capture Bi Linglong would actually suddenly have two women at the peak of grandmaster rank appear to help her?
They had also been worried about releasing their energies and being detected by Zu An, so they had always fought conservatively. However, the women that appeared one after another were stronger than the previous ones, so they couldn't even deal with them using a few attacks.
On top of that, the isolating formation they had casually set up was just meant to block sound and to prevent Bi Linglong from escaping. How could they have anticipated that two tigresses would appear and smash through the barrier?
Then, Zu An had arrived…
Zu An saw the Rage points that came in and felt that sometimes, luck came when you least expected it. He didn’t want there to be a meaningless slaughter among the Imperial Palace’s guards; as such, he flashed forward and attacked both individuals.
The two sneered.
Does he really think he's unrivaled in this world?
He’s actually attacking us both at the same time?
They were planning to teach him a lesson when their expressions changed, because they suddenly felt that they were facing Zu An’s full-power attack. His hand was white and clean, and yet it felt more terrifying than a mountain crashing down.
No, how could a mountain describe its power? This felt as if the world itself was crashing down on them!
The Doomsday Spirit and Plague Monarch didn’t dare to hold back. If they continued to maintain their human identities, they would be instantly flattened into meat pancakes. Soon after, their backs burst open. Two streaks of light, one black and one white, flew out and appeared in midair.
The white monster was like a ghost that gave off an air of resentment and chaos. It was naturally the Doomsday Spirit.
Although the Doomsday Spirit had at least some redeeming aesthetic qualities, the Plague Monarch was ugliness incarnate. It was like a mountain of black flesh, and its entire body was shrouded in thick black energy. Ragged clothes that were even worse than that of a street beggar covered its body.
Small strips that resembled threads hung off it and fluttered in the wind. But upon closer inspection, they weren’t threads at all, but rather lines of mice biting on each others’ tails. It was impossible to think of them as normal mice, as they all had red eyes and sharp teeth. What seemed to be black energy was actually made up of blood-sucking mosquitoes and green-headed flies that flew around it. There were even countless roaches crawling across its body.
All of the women present began to retch when they saw this. It really was too disgusting.
The guards who had been fighting against each other all stopped as well. They saw that Bi Qi and the emperor were lying on the ground with their backs ripped open, their innards already long gone. They were nothing more than empty shells. How could they still not know if the empress was telling the truth or not? These two were monsters after all!
As she looked at her father’s corpse, Bi Linglong’s eyes couldn't help but turn red. Even though she had already known that her father was most likely already dead, seeing him die so tragically still made tears trickle out of her eyes.
Liu Ning only felt that Bi Qi’s condition was fully deserved. She almost laughed in the face of her enemies’ death, but out of consideration for Bi Linglong’s face, she decided to forcefully stop her grin.
However, her eyes quickly moved toward Zhao Ruizhi’s corpse. Even though they called him an idiot emperor in private, he was still her older sister’s only son. Seeing him end up like this, she wondered if her older sister would have felt sad. When she saw that, she couldn't bring herself to feel happy anymore.
“Hmph, I was planning to hold off on killing everyone until later, but since you're all courting death, you can feel the fear of death now,” the Plague Monarch spat angrily.
Countless hands spread out, moving to activate formations scattered throughout the capital. He planned to use the flesh of all the creatures in the capital as a sacrifice, and obtain tremendous power through it to defeat this powerful foe.
But nothing happened even after he muttered incantations for a while. He was stunned.
“What is going on?” He tried to activate the great formation again, but he quickly discovered that he had lost his link to it.
“Are you looking for these things?” Zu An asked. With a wave of his hand, several black banners flew out. Every single one had strange runes on it, and was surrounded by black energy. However, under the pressure Zu An exerted, they couldn't do anything.
“How can this be?!” The Plague Monarch was shocked and angry.
You have successfully trolled the Plague Monarch for +666 +666 +666…
“The reason it took so long for me to come here was because I was taking care of these shitty things.” Zu An had learned about the grand formation from the Thousand-Footed Elder. He'd thus run around pulling out all of these formations to make sure it wouldn’t be a threat anymore. He had a lot of formation knowledge to begin with, and now that he had resonated with the will of the world, it wasn’t hard to find these things at all.
“So what if this formation is gone? I still have other methods!” The Plague Monarch’s entire body shook, and then endless cockroaches, mice, mosquitoes, and flies spread through the air. As long as they touched a living being, they would immediately spread plague.
He'd decided that he would just use the Imperial Palace’s people as the source to spread a plague through the entire capital, and then to the rest of the world. Even though it would end up damaging his foundation, there was nothing else he could do now. Zu An’s cultivation was high, but there was no way to effectively use powerful cultivation against a plague.
“Haha, there are so many seeds of plague being released. No matter how great your cultivation is, how many of them can you stop?” The Doomsday Spirit also chuckled. As long as a single one escaped, the plague would be successfully released.
“Oh?” Zu An took out the Soul Summoning Banner that was full of ghostly energy. He gently waved it at the mice and other pests in the air.
The pests trembled, and then they all fell out of the sky. They couldn't scatter across the world at all. Furthermore, what awaited them was the White Lotus Flame, which burned them completely to ashes without any traces remaining.
Just like that, everything was completely erased!
