#709 - Chapter 709 Bloody Return
Another world, now shrouded in twilight, felt like the prelude to an impending storm.
Many people furrowed their brows, silent and unmoving.
"What are you doing?" Suddenly, an incredibly shrill voice exploded in the twilight air.
The Emperors within the Immortal Mist Magic Forest, upon hearing this sharp voice, couldn't help but feel goosebumps rise from the soles of their feet to the back of their necks.
"What's going on? Investigate immediately!"
Emperor Mo and the others were in a meeting, startled by the voice.
After the initial shock, anger spread from head to toe.
Soon, the person sent to investigate disappeared into the night sky.
The scene fell into an unusual silence, everyone wordless.
They were afraid that speaking first would give Emperor Mo a handle to punish them.
Soon, something fell from the night sky.
"What is that?"
Many people looked at the unknown object in front of them, filled with suspicion and uncertainty.
Some of the bolder ones stepped forward first, and their expressions changed after seeing what had fallen.
"What is it? Bring it here for me to see."
Emperor Mo loosened a string of sandalwood beads around his neck, his brow furrowed, his eyes seeming to drip with gloom as he looked at the crowd.
The crowd glanced in the direction of Emperor Mo, hesitant for a moment.
But unable to withstand Emperor Mo's immense aura, they had no choice but to present the object.
It was a complete human skin.
It looked like it had been peeled off recently, and drops of blood dripped down the texture of the skin, eerily strange in the exceptionally quiet magic forest.
Even Emperor Mo himself was momentarily frightened into making a sound.
"This, what is going on?"
The end of Emperor Mo's voice was distorted by fear, twisted beyond recognition in the moonlight.
"Heh heh, Emperor Mo, are you satisfied with this gift from me?"
As the voice slowly fell, everyone present changed their expressions.
This voice was none other than that of Emperor Luo, who had been missing for a long time.
Since Emperor Luo disappeared, many emperors who had originally followed Emperor Luo's lead had defected to Emperor Mo.
Emperor Mo had worked under Emperor Luo for so long, and he had long been dissatisfied with Emperor Luo's constant oppression.
Therefore, taking advantage of Emperor Luo's absence, he secretly eroded nearly half of Emperor Luo's confidants.
But as the main contact person for Emperor Luo's return, he still appeared incredibly loyal in front of Emperor Luo.
The so-called acting like a whore while trying to maintain a good reputation probably described someone like Emperor Mo.
"Emperor Luo, why is it you? Aren't you..."
As Emperor Luo's voice fell, a giant face appeared in the sky.
As time passed, the large face gradually solidified, coalescing into the shape of a person.
With just a little more, it seemed he could condense into a physical body.
"The Lord of Heaven and Earth! ...Still alive..."
"Moreover, do you think that I, as the Lord of Heaven and Earth, would only leave you with one way out?"
Emperor Luo narrowed his eyes, his gaze towards Emperor Mo arrogant and cold-blooded.
"Was that person just now killed by you?"
Emperor Mo looked at Emperor Luo at this moment, deeply fearful.
"What, do you feel sorry for him? It's also thanks to you that I was able to show myself so quickly, isn't it?"
Emperor Luo said, licking his fingers, savoring the aftertaste.
"You pervert!"
Emperor Mo finally cursed aloud.
He turned to the emperors and said, "Such a person is not worthy of being our Lord of Heaven and Earth."
"Our Lord of Heaven and Earth should have a new candidate!"
"You, who will join me!"
Emperor Mo spoke with a resounding voice, his eyes filled with endless expectation as he looked at the emperors.
However, to his disappointment, not a single person stood up among the emperors present.
They didn't even look at him, including those emperors who had deliberately tried to curry favor with him before.
"You, is no one willing to stand up?"
Emperor Mo looked at the crowd, the disappointment in his eyes growing stronger.
Looking at Emperor Mo's earnest gaze, many emperors silently lowered their heads, not daring to look at Emperor Mo.
Emperor Luo, who had previously been somewhat wary of Emperor Mo, smiled silently upon seeing this scene.
"What, still thinking of betraying me?"
Emperor Luo's body had not yet fully solidified, and on the ground, he only had half a shadow.
Emperor Mo naturally saw all of this.
The hands he had placed at his sides loosened and then clenched again, and finally, he seemed to have made up his mind as he raised his head and said.
"Luo, from today onwards, Emperor Mo and you will compete fairly!"
"I am no longer your subordinate, and any of your orders are invalid from now on."
Emperor Mo finished saying all the words that he had suppressed in his heart for a long time very calmly, and then lifted his foot to leave.
But before he could walk far.
"Pfft!"
A large mouthful of blood spurted from Emperor Mo's mouth, directly soaking the entire ground.
"You..."
Emperor Mo struggled to look down at the spear that had pierced straight through his heart, the spear also bearing a deadly poison.
Using all the strength he could muster, he turned his head to look at Emperor Luo, and then Emperor Mo could no longer hold on, his physical body falling to the ground and dying.
Seeing that his body was dead, Emperor Mo's nascent soul concealed its form and escaped from Emperor Mo's dantian, preparing to take advantage of the chaos to escape.
But all of this could not escape Emperor Luo's eyes.
He narrowed his cold eyes and took a few steps forward.
Before anyone could react, he grabbed Emperor Mo's nascent soul with lightning speed.
"Let me go!"
Emperor Mo's nascent soul finally felt the fear that came from the depths of his bones, his eyes filled with pleading, begging in a small voice.
"Let you go? Heh!"
Emperor Luo seemed to have heard a great joke.
"Pfft!"
Emperor Luo reached out and directly crushed Emperor Mo's nascent soul.
Then, he picked up Emperor Mo's corpse and swallowed it clean in a few bites.
The scene was too bloody and brutal, making people afraid to look directly at it.
Most of the emperors present had only recently been promoted to the Emperor realm in strength, and Emperor Mo was much stronger than them no matter what.
Emperor Luo killed him as he pleased.
A wave of goosebumps rose from the bottom of their hearts, and all the emperors' faces were pale and devoid of color.
"Emperor Mo, as a subject, did not have the example and awareness of a subject."
"This is the fate he deserved."
"If you follow me and do a good job, I will naturally not mistreat you."
"If not,"
Emperor Luo said here, his gaze coldly sweeping over the emperors present.
"Emperor Mo will be your fate. Perhaps you will be a hundred times more miserable than him."
Emperor Luo said here and laughed loudly, incidentally letting out a satisfied burp.
And his body, which had not yet been able to solidify, also recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye because he had eaten a strong Emperor realm expert.
"Your subjects, pay respects to the Lord of Heaven and Earth, Emperor Luo!"
Seeing that Emperor Luo's strength was getting stronger and stronger, almost everyone present did not hesitate and instantly knelt on the ground, kowtowing straight.
Their speed of changing faces could be described as lightning fast.
"Get up."
"You all send people to see how the Immortal Realm is doing."
"All of my previous plans should have begun to take effect, right..."
Emperor Luo looked into the distance, the greed in his eyes flashing past.
