Chapter 870: Chapter 869: Su Han is Dead!

At this moment, not just the Yun Family and Sect of Peace, but many people in the plaza harbored their own thoughts and emotions.

Those who held grudges against Su Han, or were jealous of him, or simply disliked him, naturally hoped for his death.

Those who had no enmity or connection with Su Han, however, felt a quiet pity–another legend, destined to fall.

As for those who had ties to Su Han, some burned with anger, some silently regretted, and others remained indifferent.

Humans are like this. In ordinary times, they appear amiable, but when critical moments arise, the true nature of who will aid you and who won’t becomes glaringly evident.

…

While countless people discussed the scene, beyond Black Wind Cliff, Su Han’s physical body began to collapse.

The sheer force of that hand was simply overpowering. As it struck Su Han, it shattered all of his defenses and attacks, causing him to spew blood.

Now, defenseless, Su Han’s arm exploded with a loud bang.

Next came his right hand, followed by both legs, then his upper torso, and finally, his skull.

A primordial spirit emerged from the disintegrating body, but that massive hand immediately contracted, seizing Su Han’s primordial spirit tightly and crushing it viciously!

“Boom!”

The sound of a thunderous explosion echoed, drawing the attention of the three Dragon Slayers from One Slash Palace who were locked in battle nearby.

“No!!!”

Someone screamed, not with pain, but with raw fury.

One Slash Palace had paid a great price today for Su Han, summoning numerous powerful figures with the ultimate goal of preserving him.

If Su Han had truly entered Black Wind Cliff and perished inside, they wouldn’t have minded. But to die at the hands of the Five Great Super Sects? That was utterly different.

At this moment, gazing at Su Han’s body’s collapse and the dissolution of his primordial spirit, the three Dragon Slayers were gritting their teeth, their rage overwhelming.

“Do you even know what relationship he had with our Young Palace?!”

“Do you understand the pact he had with our Palace Master?!”

“Do you realize how furious the Palace Master will be because of his death?!”

“Do you comprehend that you cannot possibly bear the wrath of the Palace Master?!!!”

Someone spoke loudly, his voice resonating across the void.

This was a roar filled with fury, and as Su Han had previously said, the sound swiftly carried to the plaza.

In that instant, everyone understood… Su Han was dead!

This death was not mere physical demise–it was annihilation of both body and spirit. Otherwise, why would the powerful beings of One Slash Palace be so infuriated?

“Silence!”

Following the roar from the Dragon Slayer of One Slash Palace, a chilling voice suddenly sounded from within the void.

“No matter how strong One Slash Palace may be, it never imagined challenging the Five Great Super Sects. Today, your intervention might go unpunished, but if pursued, do you think One Slash Palace would fare well?”

“Su Baliu is dead, the grievances are settled. If you don’t wish for trouble, One Slash Palace better stay obediently within its mountain gates and refrain from meddling!”

“And don’t use that tone with me–you are not qualified. Understand?”

As the voice fell, a cold snort emerged again from the void before fading into nothingness.

The nearly ten Dragon Emperor Realm figures of the Five Great Super Sects sneered coldly, refraining from further action, and withdrew swiftly.

Meanwhile, a thunderous voice reverberated across half of the Central Domain.

“Su Han has been slain by the Imperial Ancestor. All members of the Five Great Super Sects are to retreat immediately and prepare for the journey to the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal, one month from now!”

The voice, whose source was unclear, carried an air of decisiveness and even veiled excitement.

Clearly… Su Baliu was truly dead!

Yuani Ling, Du Yuehui, Moo Qinghai, and others were momentarily stunned, then exhaled in relief, their faces finally breaking into triumphant smiles.

Though there were still adversaries obstructing their path, their spirits for battle had waned. Their objective had been achieved: the threat that was Su Baliu had been utterly eradicated!

From today onward, they would no longer fret over Su Baliu, no longer worry about the heights he might achieve, no longer concern themselves with the trouble he might bring to them or their sects.

While Su Han was alive, they didn’t quite feel this way. But now, hearing confirmation of his death, they suddenly realized that, no matter the cost, it had been worth it!

A mere Dragon God Realm cultivator had exerted such immense pressure on so many figures in the Dragon Emperor Realm. Even Yuani Ling and others had to admit–Su Han was indeed terrifying. Across time, no Dragon God Realm cultivator had ever reached this level… except Su Han.

…

Su Han is dead!

The Phoenix Sect Leader is dead!

The unparalleled genius, once hailed as a legend, the freak of his era… is dead!

The news spread like wildfire across the entire Dragon Martial Continent at an indescribable speed, as if a blazing missile had struck the tranquil surface of a lake, causing an instant uproar.

For a long time to come, the entire Dragon Martial Continent would be consumed with talking about Su Han’s death.

A mere Dragon God Realm cultivator–a seemingly insignificant existence in the grand scale of the continent–had achieved countless miracles and shattered limits. His demise evoked sighs and regret in countless hearts, yet it also brought relief to many others.

…

One Slash Palace.

The mountain gates of One Slash Palace were situated in the southwestern region of the Central Domain, where a massive lake named ‘Moon Suppression Lake’ resided.

The lake spanned such vast dimensions that it resembled an ocean stretching beyond the horizon, and One Slash Palace’s mountain gate was located at its center.

At this moment, within a hall of One Slash Palace, Liuyun and others stood utterly dumbstruck.

“I don’t believe it… I don’t believe it!!!”

A thunderous roar erupted after a long silence, pouring from the mouths of all members of Phoenix Sect.

“The Sect Leader cannot be dead. Absolutely impossible!!!”

“I don’t believe it either!”

Nangong Yu’s face was pale as she turned her head towards the middle-aged man seated at the head of the room and asked with a trembling voice, as though trying to deceive herself: “Father, this isn’t true, is it? Su Han isn’t dead, he couldn’t be…”

That middle-aged man was none other than Nangong Duanchen!

At this moment, Nangong Duanchen’s expression was darker than usual.

While he had indeed recognized Su Han’s extraordinary aptitude, what mattered more to him was Su Han’s understanding of the Divine Blade of Water and Moon.

He had intended to invite Su Han to One Slash Palace for a personal encounter with the blade. If the palace could command the Divine Blade of Water and Moon, their strength would skyrocket.

Yet no one could have predicted that midway through, the Five Great Super Sects would gang up on Su Han. Even more unimaginable was that Su Han… would truly be slain!
