Chapter 2646: The Young Star Lord’s Death
In the blink of an eye, the Heartless Child easily nullified the threat from the Heavenly King of Azure Brilliance’s Lifebound Plume.
The young star lord clearly saw all of this, and his face suddenly hardened as a result.
The young star lord also became extremely shocked when he witnessed the Heartless Child nullify the Heavenly King of Azure Brilliance’s attack so effortlessly. He even felt disbelief.
“W- who are you? Why do you get in my way? Don’t you know who my father is?” The young star lord looked at the Heartless Child in complete fear as he subconsciously staggered backwards.
The Heartless Child did not give off any pulses of energy. He seemed just like a neighborhood kid, but the young star lord felt fear from the bottom of your soul.
“Isn’t your foster father the Nine Brilliance Star Lord from the Star Brilliance Plane? Others fear him, but I don’t. Your foster father will naturally know who I am,” the Heartless Child said with great indifference, without taking the young star lord seriously at all.
The identity that the young star lord took pride in was worth nothing before the Heartless Child.
“Y- you’re not even afraid of my father.” The young star lord’s face changed. In the thousand years he had lived, no matter where he went, no matter how powerful the expert he encountered was, he would be able to stun them as long as he mentioned his father’s name.
This young child was the only person out of all the experts he had met to not fear his foster father.
He could vaguely sense that the child had probably reached the same level as his foster father. Even if he had not, he was definitely close.
“Jian Chen, you better deal with the matters here first. I’ll return in a few days. I have something important to tell you then.” With that, the Heartless Child suddenly vanished.
With the Heartless Child’s departure, Jian Chen immediately looked at the young star lord. His cold gaze and terrifying killing intent made the young star lord shiver.
“Jian Chen, you got lucky this time.” The young star lord shivered inside. Now that he had used up everything, he felt very unconfident as he faced Jian Chen. He threw that out there with great reluctance before turning around to leave.
“Do you still think you can leave before me?” Jian Chen appeared before the young star lord silently, blocking his path.
The Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways slowly appeared in his hand. As he poured energy into it, illusionary stars appeared one after another. The terrifying pressure was enough to kick up the dust in the surroundings.
“You’re only a Godking. It won’t be degrading for you to die under my Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways,” Jian Chen said slowly. He gave off sharp sword Qi as he firmly locked onto the young star lord.
“You want to kill me?” The young star lord’s expression changed drastically with that. At that moment, he finally lost his composure. He began to panic. A feeling that he had never felt before silently permeated his heart, filling his mind completely very soon. It made him tremble gently.
This was fear towards death.
“My foster father is the Nine Brilliance Star Lord. If you even touch a hair on me, my foster father will never space you. Even the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng can’t bear the wrath of my foster father,” the young star lord said fearfully. His pupils gradually shrank. In particular, when he saw Jian Chen slowly raise his sword, the young star lord’s heart trembled even more. Even his feet shook.
“Father, save me, father!” The young star lord finally started to fear for his life before Jian Chen’s killing intent. All of his confidence and composure collapsed in that moment. He felt for his life with a pale face.
At that very moment, Jian Chen stabbed out. His sword seemed to fuse with space such that the tip vanished as soon as he stabbed out. It suddenly appeared out of thin air right in front of the young star lord in an extremely strange fashion.
The young star lord, who had fled for his life, directly ran into the sharp tip of the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways.
Spurt!
The sharp tip stabbed into the young star lord’s chest mercilessly. Terrifying sword Qi immediately swept through his entire body, severing all his organs and veins. Even his soul failed to escape.
The young star lord’s eyes were wide. His face was filled with disbelief. All the way until his death, he struggled to believe that someone would actually kill him.
The foster son of the Nine Brilliance Star Lord, Tian Yao, was dead.
Hun Zang, Chu Jian, and Yue Chao, who had gained the upper hand in their battle against the Four Symbols Alliance, also discovered the young star lord’s death. It immediately made the three of them become stern.
“Finish the battle fast!” Hun Zang called out. Immediately, Yue Chao and Chu Jian unleashed their full strength.
“The young star lord has actually died.” The expressions of the peak experts of the Four Symbols Alliance became extremely ugly. The young star lord was their source of confidence because he was what tied them to the Nine Brilliance Star Lord. Now that this tie had been severed, all of their previous efforts were rendered useless.
It was not just that. There was even the possibility that they would have to bear the wrath of the Nine Brilliance Star Lord.
None of the peak experts on the Cloud Plane could claim that they were not responsible for the young star lord’s death.
The Righteous Alliance was close with the Tian Yuan clan. Perhaps they could receive care from the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, but their Four Symbols Alliance did not possess such a powerful backing.
At that moment, the hearts of the peak experts from the Four Symbols Alliance utterly sank.
Bang! Jian Chen tossed the young star lord’s corpse onto the ground inside the Tian Yuan clan. Now that the young star lord was dead, his killing intent finally began to dissolve.
The people of the Tian Yuan clan immediately gathered over. They all stared at the young star lord’s corpse with mixed feelings.
None of them uttered a word. They all remained silent. Although the person behind the upheaval on the Cloud Plane was dead, none of them could light up. Instead, the atmosphere had become rather heavy.
They had all heard some things about the young star lord’s identity during this time. Now that someone so important had died here, they all knew what would happen next.
“Jian Chen, what do you plan on doing next?” Shangguan Mu’er arrived beside Jian Chen and asked softly. She could imagine the severe consequences of the young star lord’s death.
After all, he was the foster son of the Nine Brilliance Star Lord, and the Nine Brilliance Star Lord’s only child.
The Nine Brilliance Star Lord’s wrath was more terrifying than any destructive storm. The Tian Yuan clan was as powerless as a baby before it.
“I plan on taking the Tian Yuan clan to the Prosper Plane,” said Jian Chen. He dared to kill the young star lord because he still possessed great merit with the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. He could use this merit to exchange for a special piece of territory on the Prosper Plane and get the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng to protect the Tian Yuan clan.
