The Black Lotus Reborn: The Entire Sect Kneels and Begs for My Forgiveness

As the furnace was overturned with a crash, the city's protective formation also changed.

Above the great formation, the Soul-Devouring Sword, radiating a chilling, eerie light, trembled slightly and emitted a sharp, piercing buzzing sound.

The enormous commotion was like a thunderclap from a clear sky, instantly attracting the attention of Emperor Chiyan and his men, who were stationed in a tent not far from the city.

Emperor Chiyan was discussing siege strategies with his generals when he suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside the tent.

The spy in charge of surveillance reported urgently.

"Your Majesty, the city's protective array has collapsed!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chi Yan looked surprised and pondered to himself: The Holy Capital's protective formation has always been incredibly sturdy, with dedicated guards and numerous powerful restrictions. How could it collapse for no reason?

"However, now that the great formation has collapsed, this is undoubtedly the best time to attack."

Although the Crimson Flame Emperor was puzzled, his intuition told him that he should not miss this opportunity.

Without further hesitation, a resolute glint flashed in his eyes. He immediately stood up and gave the order in a loud voice.

"Order the armies of all dynasties to attack the Holy Capital immediately, and make sure to capture it in one fell swoop."

His order was given, and the army of the Hundred Dynasties surged toward the Holy Capital like a raging tide.

On the other side, Bai Zhi, Long Jia, and the others had just arrived.

Thick smoke billowed from the direction of the capital, and the sounds of battle could be faintly heard.

Seeing that the array's core had been successfully destroyed, Ye Yunong was both happy and worried.

She turned to look at the dragon armor and said solemnly.

"Dragon Armor, the Holy Capital has been breached."

Those people must be in danger right now. You and the Crown Prince must go together and guide them out safely.

Remember, under no circumstances should the people be harmed!

Long Jia's expression hardened, and he nodded heavily. He turned and quickly ran with the Crown Prince towards the Holy Capital. Their figures soon disappeared into the billowing dust.

On the other side, Ye Yunong's true energy surged, transforming into a stream of light and swiftly heading towards the Holy Capital.

"Who? Who broke my great formation?"

Emperor Mieji watched helplessly as the cauldron overturned with a crash. In an instant, his eyes blazed with fury like raging black flames, and his entire body emanated a chilling aura.

In the midst of the chaos, his gaze, like a bolt of cold lightning, instantly swept towards the Empress not far away.

In those eyes, there was both disbelief and frantic suspicion.

"Your Majesty!"

Empress Mieji, filled with worry for her husband's safety, disregarded the chaos and danger around her and staggered towards Emperor Mieji.

Her face was filled with anxiety and concern.

"It was you, you ruined my plans."

Emperor Annihilation let out a deafening roar, a roar that seemed capable of tearing the heavens apart.

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly swung his palm out, the wind from which was like a sharp blade. Before the Queen of Annihilation could even get close to him, she was instantly torn to pieces by the terrifying wind from his palm.

Blood mist spread through the air, a blinding crimson, like a death flower blooming mournfully in the wind.

"Mother!"

The crown prince ran frantically through the chaos, searching everywhere for the empress. He was frantic, each step feeling like he was walking on burning coals.

When he finally arrived, the scene before him struck him like a thunderbolt.

He saw his mother lying quietly in a pool of blood, her body mutilated, surrounded by a horrifying scene of devastation.

At that moment, the crown prince felt as if his liver and gallbladder were about to burst.

He rushed forward without regard for anything else, splashing blood on the ground beneath his feet.

"You actually killed the Empress Dowager."

The crown prince's eyes were bloodshot with rage, burning with fury as he glared fiercely at the Emperor of Annihilation before him.

His chest heaved violently, each breath filled with endless grief and pain.

"Why are you the only one here? Where's the third brother?"

Despite his fury, Emperor Mieji still retained a strange glimmer of reason in his eyes.

He gave the crown prince a fierce look, his gaze like a cold knife slicing across him.

When he looked again at the empress lying in a pool of blood, there was no trace of regret on his face, as if the broken corpse in front of him was nothing more than an insignificant object.

I asked, "Did you kill the Empress Dowager?"

The crown prince's eyes were bulging with anger, his voice trembling with rage as he questioned the prince, each word sharp and forceful.

His chest heaved violently, and he exuded a strong aura of grief and indignation. The ground beneath his feet seemed to tremble with this emotion.

"Kill her, so be it. She was just a woman."

The voice of the Emperor of Annihilation was extremely cold, as if it came from an ancient, frigid cave, devoid of any warmth.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand, and the wind and clouds changed instantly with his movement.

The Soul-Devouring Sword, which had been hanging in mid-air and emitting a cold, eerie light, suddenly distorted the air around its blade and began to shrink abruptly.

The sword was so fast that no one could blink. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a dazzling streak of light and landed in the hand of the Annihilation Emperor with a "whoosh".

At this moment, the Emperor of Annihilation held the Soul-Devouring Sword, and his aura grew increasingly chilling.

His voice was icy and chilling, devoid of any human warmth; every word seemed to be wrapped in frost.

"A mere woman, her death is nothing to speak of."

When the Soul-Devouring Sword landed in his palm, the Emperor of Annihilation's eyes were filled with nothing but coldness, a chill that seemed capable of freezing all the warmth in the world.

His appearance, radiating evil and coldness, was completely different from the father the crown prince once knew.

The once dignified yet compassionate face is now twisted with madness and greed, making the crown prince feel utterly unfamiliar with it.

"I'm asking you, where is the third prince?"

Emperor Mieji paid no heed to the Crown Prince's heartbroken expression.

"He is dead."

The Crown Prince spoke slowly and deliberately.

His words immediately enraged Emperor Mieji.

"Dead? Who dared to kill my son?"

"Heavenly Dragon Emperor, that old scoundrel isn't that strong." Emperor Mieji's gaze fell on the Crown Prince.

"The third brother is dead, but you are still alive. Did you collude with bad guys to kill the third brother?"

You actually conspired with outsiders to kill your brother?

Emperor Mieji possessed discerning eyes and saw through the truth behind the Third Prince's death at a glance.

"If that's the case, then you might as well be buried with him."

A cold light shot straight towards the Crown Prince from the sword in the hand of the Emperor of Annihilation.

The cold light flashed like lightning, and the prince had no way to dodge it. The thought that his father actually wanted to kill him filled the prince with sorrow.

"Don't listen to his nonsense, he is not your father at all."

Just then, a voice came from the sky. It was the Crown Prince who heard the voice, and he was immediately invigorated.

That was Master's voice.

Emperor Mieji's expression changed; he hadn't detected the other party's aura at all.
