Free Web NovelChapter 1296: Chapter 1284: Severing All Ties
Yang Xiao punched down without hesitation, and the Flying Deer Emperor didn’t even make a sound before he died.
For a moment, the thousands of spectators were as silent as cicadas in cold weather, not saying a word.
Even the few Elders of the Genetic Store were shaken internally.
Yang Xiao came here today to attend a so-called arbitration meeting, and ended up using thunderous means, killing three people in succession: the Emperor of Great Dragon, Long Heng, the Eldest Prince Long Aotian, and the Flying Deer Emperor Tai Anxia.
With one move, he killed two Emperor Level Transcendent Experts from the Witch Star Continent, a feat that was truly shocking and left everyone at the scene astounded.
Earlier, dozens of Vassal Empires stood together, supported the Flying Deer Emperor’s proposal, and pressured Long Jing and others.
Now, seeing Yang Xiao kill the Flying Deer Emperor, each was frightened inside and quietly retreated.
These people’s Evolution Levels were mere Empire Level Realm, far inferior to the Flying Deer Emperor, so how could they still have the courage to challenge Yang Xiao?
The Flying Leopard Emperor Wanyan He was overjoyed, watching Yang Xiao happily.
The White Elephant Emperor, however, felt bitter inside.
When Yang Xiao killed the Flying Deer Emperor just now, he said "Dare to kill even my woman?" Most people present heard it clearly.
The White Elephant Emperor also heard it and felt a pang of shock, initially believing Yang Xiao considered the Great Dragon Empire as an enemy and sought revenge for the billions of dead on Earth by destroying the Great Dragon Empire.
Now it seems Yang Xiao wishes only to kill the Emperor of Great Dragon and Long Aotian and does not plan to pursue responsibility further.
Especially considering future Emperor of Great Dragon would be Long Jing.
Long Jing and Yang Xiao have a child together, so naturally, Yang Xiao would protect Long Jing and the Great Dragon Empire.
Yang Xiao is now an ally of the Flying Leopard Empire, and if he forms an alliance with the new Great Dragon Empire, the power structure of the Witch Star would change dramatically.
Yang Xiao, with the powerful resources and background of Purple Origin Star, may very well dominate the Witch Star in the future.
The Second Prince Long Tan, Fourth Prince, and dozens of War Generals who pressured Long Jing to kill Yang Xiao earlier were feeling complex emotions.
When the Flying Deer Emperor came out to cause trouble, they all felt the Great Dragon Empire was doomed.
Now, Yang Xiao has reversed the entire situation, saving the Great Dragon Empire.
Yang Xiao killed the Emperor of Great Dragon and Long Aotian out of revenge.
However, Yang Xiao killed the Flying Deer Emperor, saving the Great Dragon Empire, as kindness.
How should they treat Yang Xiao?
Yang Xiao walked to Long Jing’s side, saw Long Jing’s complexion was a bit rosier, and softly asked:
"Jing’er, how are you?"
Long Jing nodded and stood up,
"Thank you, I’m fine."
Yang Xiao glanced at Long Jing and the Fourth Prince beside her, and said:
"I know what you’re worried about, I will give you an answer."
Yang Xiao leaped up, floating five or six meters in the air, surveyed the crowd, and said loudly:
"Everyone, today was the arbitration meeting between me, Yang Xiao, and the Great Dragon Empire. Thank you all for coming to witness,
Now, I announce two matters,
First, the Great Dragon Empire conquered Earth seven years ago, causing a catastrophe that killed billions of people, today, that blood debt has been repaid,
I have already killed hundreds of guards from the Great Dragon Empire on Earth, and later killed War God, the dean of Heavenly Dragon Academy Long Kui, and the Third Prince,
Today, I killed the Emperor of Great Dragon, and the Eldest Prince Long Aotian who personally harmed Earth,
This vendetta, I, Yang Xiao, declare, is over.
Although I once thought about killing all the Great Dragon Empire’s people, and even annihilating the Witch Star’s people to avenge Earth’s dead,"
The crowd heard this, and was shaken, looking at Yang Xiao with fear.
This kid is so crazy, he even had such a cruel and crazy revenge plan.
Yang Xiao swept a glance at them and continued:
"But, I also understand, even if I kill all the Witch Star people, I cannot restore the lives of my dead fellow Earthlings,
Not to mention, only a few executed this plan to destroy Earth back then,
Now, those culprits have been killed, I have avenged Earth’s people, so this deep-seated blood feud ends here,
I, Yang Xiao, will not pursue any more killing of any Great Dragon Empire individual, nor will I slaughter innocent Witch Star people."
At these words, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
Many admired Yang Xiao; he avenged with his own strength, it’s truly remarkable to reach this point.
Moreover, Yang Xiao knows when to stop, not randomly killing innocents, his magnanimity is admirable and respectable.
The Second Elder of the Genetic Store nodded, and said:
"Young Master Yang, you are clear in your grievances, brave and determined, yet know when to stop, think of the bigger picture, with a benevolent heart, which I greatly admire,
As long as Young Master Yang sincerely pursues good, I believe we Witch Star people will consider you a friend."
Yang Xiao bowed to the Second Elder, and said:
"Thank you, Second Elder, for understanding my hardships."
"Young Master Yang, you said you’d announce two things, now that revenge has been settled, what’s the second matter?"
Yang Xiao announced loudly:
"The second matter is still related to the Great Dragon Empire,
Everyone knows, the Emperor of Great Dragon, before dying, passed the throne to Princess Long Jing, which immediately led to the Flying Deer Emperor’s act of revenge,
Therefore, I, Yang Xiao, swear by my life,
From today on, the new Emperor of Great Dragon, Long Jing, will receive protection from me, Yang Xiao, regardless of any person or organization, if anyone challenges the Great Dragon Empire, or assassinates Long Jing, I, Yang Xiao, will exhaust my life force to destroy the opponent’s family, breed, and tribe!"
"Buzz!"
Everyone’s minds buzzed as they stared blankly at Yang Xiao.
Although some vaguely guessed Yang Xiao might do this, his actual announcement still shocked everyone.
Long Jing is Yang Xiao’s lover, the two have a child together.
Long Jing is now the Emperor of Great Dragon, and will definitely pass the throne to her son Yang Xiao in the future.
Yang Xiao protecting the Great Dragon Empire is indeed protecting his son’s empire, isn’t it?
It makes perfect sense!
Only, from now on, Yang Xiao will become the new dominant figure of Witch Star?
The White Elephant Emperor breathed somewhat heavily.
Wanyan He, on the other hand, wasn’t worried and believed Yang Xiao wouldn’t attack the Flying Leopard Empire.
Wanyan He originally had some concerns about the First War General Wanyan Kang seeking opportunities to rebel, to overthrow his rule, but now it seems Wanyan Kang already has no chance, not even the courage.
The stronger Yang Xiao becomes, the safer Wanyan He feels.
Long Jing, the Second Prince, the Fourth Prince, and dozens of War Generals from the Great Dragon Empire all felt inside turmoil, glancing at each other bewildered, their emotions complex.
Yang Xiao had just killed the Emperor of Great Dragon Dragon Soul and Long Aotian Prince, and at a turn announced the Great Dragon Empire would receive his protection.
The shift was too fast and abrupt, even with the factors of Long Jing and Yang Xiao’s mother and son, it was hard to accept at once.
However, the reality was that even if they were unwilling to accept Yang Xiao’s protection, they dared not refuse outwardly.
The current Great Dragon Empire no longer has the ability to protect itself, just like the Flying Deer Emperor’s challenge earlier; if it weren’t for Yang Xiao stepping in, the Great Dragon Empire would cease to exist now.
Long Jing stared blankly at Yang Xiao, thoughts fluctuating, took a deep breath, and said loudly:
"Yang Xiao, thank you for your goodwill, but it’s not necessary."
Long Jing finished speaking, bowed three times to her father’s corpse, stood up, and said loudly:
"Yang Xiao, you killed my father, brothers, and relatives like War God and Uncle Long Kui; we should be enemies, no matter what harm the Great Dragon Empire once caused you, now you’ve gotten your revenge, thank you for not further pursuing me or other Great Dragon Empire citizens,
We were once acquaintances in love; I used to be just a girl, unaffected by imperial affairs, detached from mundane concerns,
But today, facing emergency, accepting my father’s decree, from now on, I am not myself, but the Emperor of the Great Dragon Empire, bearing the destiny of the entire empire’s people,
Our grievances end here, although I cannot hate you, nor can I seek revenge,
But you killed my father and brothers; if I were with you, it would defy the natural order,
Here, I declare, I, Long Jing, sever all ties with you, from now on you’re you, I am me, we will never associate again,"
Long Jing said this, looked down at her son beside her, coldly,
said:
"Yang Xiao is your son, this fact cannot be changed, I will not hinder the feelings between you father and son, but that is all."
Long Jing said this, looking at Yang Xiao, couldn’t hold back tears from falling.
