Human Clan Defender

Chapter 1124: Chapter 159-160: Proud Heaven Falls (Two-in-One)

"As the Emperor of the Leize Divine Clan, why must you act against a junior? It is not an honorable act for a dignified Divine Lord to bully someone in the God Realm."

As the voice fell.

A middle-aged man with a handsome face, donned in a blood-colored robe with a faint smile, quietly appeared in the void.

Upon seeing his appearance.

The powerful spectators watching were taken aback, then hurriedly cupped their hands in respect.

"Greetings, Blood Emperor!"

Upon hearing this.

The Blood Emperor glanced at them indifferently, then waved his hand: "Go about your business, don’t linger here. Curiosity killed the cat; if you get caught in the crossfire, don’t blame me for not warning you beforehand."

"Thank you, Blood Emperor, for your guidance!"

The powerful individuals, feeling as if they had been granted amnesty, hurriedly turned and left.

They dared to watch battles between Divine Kings.

But when faced with a Divine Lord-level power, they dared not be the least bit presumptuous.

Such beings are completely beyond the Divine King’s level.

If the opponent wished, they could easily crush them all with a single hand, so after the Blood Emperor spoke, no one dared to remain.

Subsequently.

The Blood Emperor looked at Shen Changqing with approval in his eyes.

"You are quite impressive; among all Proud Heavens of the God Realm across the Heavens Myriad Clans, you’re expected to enter the top ten!"

"Senior praises me too much!"

Shen Changqing cupped his hands.

Facing a Divine Lord, it would be untrue to say he felt no pressure.

The issue of his own Origin might not be visible to Divine Kings, but whether a Divine Lord could see it was something Shen Changqing wasn’t entirely certain about.

Fortunately.

From the Blood Emperor’s expression, it was obvious he hadn’t spotted anything unusual.

In response.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, the void before him silently split open, and a strong figure clad in a purple robe appeared.

"Blood Emperor, are your Sikong Divine Clan truly intending to intervene?"

"What a joke, the Zhongshan Clan is already an ally of our Sikong Divine Clan, but your Leize Divine Clan, having nothing better to do, decided to interfere here. What, did you think I had grown too old to wield my blade?"

The Blood Emperor sneered, completely lacking the image an emperor should have, his mouth full of ridicule.

At these words.

The Lei Emperor’s expression turned slightly cold.

"The Sikong Divine Clan is on the decline, yet the Blood Emperor still acts unruly. Very well, today I will give you face."

With that, he intended to leave with Lei Yuan.

However.

Just as he prepared to leave, a blood-red light covered the sky, transforming into a powerful Domain.

"Come and go as you please, Lei Emperor, isn’t that a bit excessive? Since your clan’s proud prodigy dared to challenge, and the outcome is yet to be decided, it should continue. Why not calm down and observe as we watch on?"

"Blood Emperor, aren’t you overstepping?"

The Lei Emperor’s expression finally grew cold.

His aura erupted, shattering the blood-red Domain.

Lei Yuan is a proud prodigy of the Leize Divine Clan, destined to enter the Divine Lord Realm in the future; regardless, he cannot fall here.

When Lei Yuan challenged Shen Changqing earlier, the Lei Emperor was actually aware.

But in his view.

Although Shen Changqing’s strength was impressive, it was unlikely he could be Lei Yuan’s match, so he did not intervene.

The result.

Turned out to be the exact opposite of his expectations.

Now, the Lei Emperor couldn’t stand by idly any longer.

"Too much?"

The Blood Emperor chuckled.

"Your Leize Divine Clan’s proud prodigy wants to fight when he desires, but leaves when unable to win, having a backer step in—such conduct disgraces the Divine Clan."

At these words.

The Lei Emperor didn’t respond, his golden eyes glaring at the opponent, while the void silently dissipated under the terrifying presence.

Two Divine Lords faced off.

Merely the intangible pressure they emitted was enough to cause unease.

Fortunately.

With the Chaos Dao Body, Shen Changqing was virtually immune to such pressure, as had been the case on the White Jade steps, and it remained true even now under the Divine Lord’s pressure.

Suddenly.

He heard the Blood Emperor’s voice in his ear.

"Slay Lei Yuan, the Sikong Divine Clan will fully support you. Don’t worry about the Lei Emperor; with me here, he can’t overturn the heavens!"

Slay Lei Yuan!

Shen Changqing’s expression shifted.

Soon, he understood the Blood Emperor’s plan.

Lei Yuan is the Young Master of the Leize Divine Clan, a top-tier proud prodigy, whose future growth would be disadvantageous to the Sikong Divine Clan. If he could be slain now, it would undoubtedly remove a potential future threat.

Clearly.

The other regarded him as a tool to slay Lei Yuan.

However.

Shen Changqing had no intention of refusing.

Killing Lei Yuan had no downside for him; even if he didn’t act, the opponent’s nature might bring trouble for him in the future.

And he.

Most dreaded trouble.

Therefore.

Rather than await future trouble.

It would be better to preemptively resolve all potential issues.

Having made his decision.

Shen Changqing, braving the Divine Lord’s pressure in the void, charged directly at Lei Yuan.

"Impudent!"

The Lei Emperor was furious.

He hadn’t expected a mere God Realm entity to dare strike in his presence.

Forget the God Realm.

Even a Clan Imperial Practitioner wouldn’t dare act presumptuously before him.

Just as the Lei Emperor was about to strike to eliminate Shen Changqing, the Blood Emperor appeared before him.

"Lei Emperor, your opponent is me!"

"Blood Emperor, do you truly intend to oppose me?"

The Lei Emperor raged.

Even if he had maintained his imperial bearing before, masking his emotions, at this moment, he concealed nothing.

The Blood Emperor laughed: "Why waste so many words."

As his words concluded, he already made a strike with his palm.
