Chapter 1351: Who will go kill Xia Fei?
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
There many clans in the universe skilled at killing others, and the Skywing Clan’s expertise was in killing people above their level.
So long as they were fast enough, they could exceed anyone!
Xia Fei had taken Yading’s life with one strike precisely because he was absurdly fast! There was no one faster than Xia Fei in this universe!
Who cared about levels!? Speed types existed to ignore them all!
Xia Fei turned his head, his eyes still spewing flame. He had been driven to madness by his rage, absolute insanity!
!!
His Inner Demon exploded! The broken wings unfurled from his back like sharp blades!
“You think you can kill me?” Xia Fei said to Shane darkly. “If you want to kill me, you had best call out one of the Five Ancient Apexes! Today, I’ll be killing all of you!”
The dignity of the Skywings would not be blasphemed! The dignity of the Fiend Race could not be trampled on!
To think the Hero Alliance would seal up the Fiend Race’s Devil Shadow Dragoons with the Dragon Race and then turned around to exterminate the Fiend Race! Such methods were truly cruel and shameless!
“Why are you this fast!?” Shane backed away as he shouted in alarm.
Xia Fei had been at thirty million meters per second when he first joined the 29th Place. After one month, his speed had broken one hundred million!
This was explosive growth! Shane could never have imagined that Xia Fei would today possess the universe’s fastest speed!
Shane was afraid. He was facing the speed maniac with the fastest speed in the universe, and he alone truly wasn’t enough to kill him!
“Apologies. I don’t want to reply to your question, because I only want to kill you!” Xia Fei roared and shot forward like an arrow!
The Fiendish Blade Nirvana swept out, chopping at Shane’s waist!
*Schwing*
This attack hit nothing but an afterimage. It turned out that Shane had used a high-ranked instant movement technique. He wanted to leave, but Xia Fei was even faster than his instant movement technique! Even if only a shadow was left, his target couldn’t even think of escaping!
*Thump!*
Shane, who still ended up being chopped in half, collapsed on the streets of Britannia. The devouring power of the Nirvana had left more than half of his body shriveled up, and with a gust of wind, it turned into dust.
*Whoosh! Whoosh!*
Several dark figures instantly gathered around Shane’s corpse. They saw that Shane had gripped objects in his left and right hand before dying. When these people opened up his left hand and saw what was in it, they paled in shock.
“Wind Shadow! He used the Wind Shadow soul transmission device, but he still couldn’t escape!? Heavens! He must have been killed by a speed type, one with transcendent speed!” a warrior exclaimed in shock.
Wind Shadow was a Soul Transmission Device. Unlike ordinary soul weapons, energy was placed in it beforehand. Shane only needed to press a button to activate the instant movement technique!
Compared to ordinary spatial instant movement techniques, Wind Shadow’s transmission speed was ten times faster. It appeared that he had taken precautions against the speed-type Xia Fei a long time ago. But not even in his dreams could Shane have imagined that Xia Fei had shattered the limits of speed! Even using the transcendent soul transmission device Wind Shadow, he still hadn’t been able to escape!
Another person opened up Shane’s other hand. Inside it was a clenched fist made from metal. This was none other than the symbol of the Five Ancient Apexes! It represented their sincere cooperation, like that of a clenched fist punching!
“Oh no! He’s a man of the Five Ancient Apexes! Hurry and send this thing over!”
Someone immediately left Britannia to deliver the news to the Five Ancient Apexes of Annihilation!
…
After killing Shane and Yading, Xia Fei put away the Paired Comet and went to Xiu Zetian’s side.
The soul dagger had gone through his heart. It was a soul wound! Even though Xiu Zetian had a peak Annihilator’s cultivation, there was no saving him. His breathing was getting weaker and weaker.
“Go, and never come back,” Xiu Zetian looked at Xia Fei and struggled to say, “Old Ye is Autumn Erudite.”
Xiu Zetian’s head dropped to the side, and he stopped breathing. But his hand kept a tight hold of Xia Fei’s hand, passing his spatial ring on to Xia Fei.
The back of Xiu Zetian’s ring had a picture of his wife, a woman with an elegant figure and heroic posture.
“Haaa,” Radix sighed. “How could it turn out like this!? How!? All these guys deserve death!”
Sometimes, the truth was exceptionally cruel. Radix was already incoherent. He could not accept the cruelty of the situation. Even when faced with the threat of the Dragons, the bigshots of Annihilator had still schemed against each other.
Xia Fei reached out and closed Xiu Zetian’s eyes.
This pitiful man had been passionate and righteous, trying his best to avenge his wife, but in the end, he had found that his enemy was right next to him. It was truly a great irony.
“Let’s hurry and get out of here! To the eighth universe,” Radix said to Xia Fei.
Xia Fei shook his head. “We can’t leave. If we leave, we’ll burden many people.”
Xia Fei let out Little Goldie, and after telling him some things and placing something in Little Goldie’s mouth, Little Goldie grimly opened up a passage to dark space and departed swiftly!
Radix was ghastly pale, saying to Xia Fei uneasily, “Are you really going to do this!?”
Xia Fei nodded. “You must trust in my judgment. This is the only thing we can do.”
“You’re gambling with your own life!!!” Radix bellowed.
…
In a quiet bamboo forest, Autumn Erudite was waiting to hear from Xiu Zetian. Liu Shuting was keeping him company.
A servant nervously entered the room, not even having time to announce himself. He nervously said, “Old Ye, there are guests!”
Autumn Erudite was rather annoyed, casually saying, “What are you so panicked for? Who’s come?”
“The Five…the Five Ancient Apexes!”
Autumn Erudite and Liu Shuting were both surprised, Liu Shuting so surprised that he stood up.
“Speak clearly. Is it Vandez, Si Zhe. Gregory or Thunder?” Autumn Erudite said, trying to stay calm.
“All…all of them!” the servant frantically said. The Five Ancient Apexes had all gathered. This was a scene he had never seen in his entire life!
All of them!? Even Autumn Erudite was standing up now, clearly very uneasy.
Managing a smile, Autumn Erudite waved his hand and said, “Since they’re here, let them in!”
As he spoke, four people appeared in Autumn Erudite’s little wooden house. They were none other than the other four members of the Five Ancient Apexes, the strongest existences in all of Annihilation!
Autumn Erudite smiled. Sitting back down, he raised a hand and said, “Please, sit. What wind has blown all of you over in my direction? Our last meeting was ages ago, no? I thought you had forgotten all about me.”
Vandez, the leader of the four, said, “Send away all your people. What we have to say to you is very important.”
Autumn Erudite frowned, but seeing how resolved the other four were, he waved his hand and whispered, “All of you withdraw eight hundred kilometers.”
“Yes!” Autumn Erudite’s men received the order and left. Vandez glared at Liu Shuting, and Autumn Erudite had no choice but to send his strategist away as well.
Autumn Erudite shrugged and said politely, “Can you sit now?”
All of them sat down, nasty grimaces on their faces.
Vandez turned a screen on and said, “You don’t need to ask why we came. Just watch this first.”
Curious, Autumn Erudite stared at the screen. This was a combat video which displayed the events in Britannia from Shane’s point of view.
When Yading spoke the truth, Autumn Erudite felt like he was about to explode! How!? There were still survivors from the Heroes Alliance, besides the five of them!?
Finally, the video that left the Autumn Erudite horrified came to an end, and Shane’s cloven body collapsed onto the street.
“Autumn Erudite, I’ll be honest with you. It was I who ordered Xiu Zetian to be killed. If you hadn’t appeared and protected him, this incident wouldn’t have happened!” Vandez said grimly.
The Autumn Erudite dropped his head. Pinching his thigh, he said in a trembling voice, “Was Yading telling the truth?”
“Correct. In order to entrap the Fiend Race, we developed the plan to divide the universe into nine parts. Must I have Lord Azure Moon come here and personally explain things to you?” Vandez said.
Autumn Erudite instantly looked much older. Azure Moon had been the leader of the Holy Light Dragoons at the time, the number one hero of the universe! He was still alive!?
Autumn Erudite sighed. This news had completely overturned everything he knew, and he didn’t know what to say.
Autumn Erudite looked out the window and said weakly, “Was killing all those people really worth it?”
“Worth it! Far too worth it!” Thundercry proclaimed loudly. “Without that sacrifice, how could we humans and Bluebloods have enjoyed eons of prosperity!?
“Did you forget about the situation back then? Did you forget about how arrogant those Fiend scoundrels were!? Of the Four Great Dragoon Legions, the Devil Shadow Dragoons had never lost once! And after that, even the Dark Moon Dragoons, which were made up of minor races, wanted to suppress our Holy Light! How could we bear it!?”
Autumn Erudite glanced at Thundercry. “So you knew about this as well? After all this time, all of you knew? Only I, Ye Zhiqiu, was left in the dark! Good, good!”
Thunder felt somewhat guilty. Back then, he had been Autumn Erudite’s colleague in the logistics department, and his subordinate!
“You can’t blame us for this. No one made you such a do-gooder. Moreover, your Ye Clan had a marriage alliance with the Fiend Race, so we had to hide it from you,” Thundercry explained.
Autumn Erudite felt his heart growing cold. He felt like he had been an idiot all these years. All this time, he had been desperately trying to find out why the Fiend Race had suddenly betrayed the alliance, but he had been a fool, investigating something that everyone else already knew.
“So, what did you come here today for? Did you come to laugh at me!?” Autumn Erudite said coldly.
Vandez frowned. “Old Ye, we didn’t mean that at all. It was Lord Azure Moon who asked us to come and persuade you. Xiu Zetian was your proud disciple, but alas, he’s dead now, and there’s no salvaging this situation. But that Xia Fei is still alive, and he’s your man.
“Lord Azure Moon said that he has been observing you for a long time and knew that you were not of one mind with the Fiend Race, so he wants you to rejoin the party. Of course, that is only if you are willing.”
The Autumn Erudite scoffed. He understood that they wanted him to prove his loyalty. Xia Fei was his man, so if Autumn Erudite killed him personally, he would prove that he could be trusted. But if Autumn Erudite wasn’t willing, he would be killed on the spot!
This was the Annihilation Universe! For their own benefit, the Holy Light and Destiny Dragoons had gambled with the fate of the entire universe! Friendship? Affection? Such things had never existed in Annihilation!
Thunder grew somewhat frantic. As an old subordinate of Autumn Erudite, he still felt very bad for hiding this matter from the Autumn Erudite for so many years.
Thundercry feared that Autumn Erudite would read the situation incorrectly and oppose Azure Moon, so he hastily said, “Xia Fei is currently trapped in Britannia and can’t leave, nor can he send out any messages. His death is inevitable! Since you were the one who brought him to Annihilation, personally sending him off is a decent end.
“This kid Xia Fei has now become a walking disaster. No one expected him to break the one hundred million meter per second threshold! Ordinary warriors can’t do anything to him, so one of us five has to go, and I feel like you are the ideal choice!”
Broke one hundred million!? Autumn Erudite was surprised, and his eyes glinted with a subtle light…
