Chapter 3882: He Can Kill With His Eyes
With the help from his subordinates such as the Heavenly Savage Celestial Emperor Meng Luo and the others, Feng Qing Yang, the former Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, returned to the Heavenly Emperor Palace. Those who dared to stop them were killed without exception.
Meng Luo had kept a low profile for many years, waiting for Feng Qing Yang’s return. He did not waste his time and cultivated diligently. Naturally, he was much stronger than before. He, alone, was able to hold back a troop of thousands. He did not show mercy to those who showed even the slightest trace of hostility.
Boom!
Meng Luo punched his fist out, and a surge of energy swept out toward his opponent before entering his opponent’s body, causing his opponent to explode into a mist of blood.
At this time, some Celestial Emperors who had just rushed out to attack saw Meng Luo easily killing his opponent with just a punch, they were terrified.
“It’s the Heavenly Savage Celestial Emperor!”
“It’s Meng Luo!”
At this time, a stern voice rang in the air.
“Meng Luo! These are all people of the t.i.tle Temple. If you dare to kill them, even Feng Qing Yang won’t be able to save you if he returns!”
Following that, a stout and burly middle-aged man riding on a giant sword appeared. He glared at Meng Luo as soon as he arrived.
…
“Are you Yan Tian Nan, the Heavenly Sword Celestial Emperor from the t.i.tle Temple?” Meng Luo’s eyes lit up as soon as he saw the newcomer.
Yan Tian Nan, the Heavenly Sword Celestial Emperor, was the Branch Vice Temple Master of the t.i.tle Temple in the Solitary Destructive Heaven. He was known as the second strongest Sword Celestial in the Solitary Destructive Heaven when Feng Qing Yang was still around. After Feng Qing Yang attained G.o.dhood, he was recognized as the strongest Sword Celestial in the Solitary Destructive Heaven.
Even then, Yan Tian Nan was nowhere close to Feng Qing Yang, who was known as the Invincible Sword Celestial. He was unlike Feng Qing Yang who was a truly invincible Sword Celestial in the Solitary Destructive Heaven. After all, there were many Sword Celestials who could defeat him in the Solitary Destructive Heaven. He was only said to be the second strongest Sword Celestial in the Solitary Destructive Heaven because he relied purely on his sword when he fought unlike the others who used various means to fight.
Meng Luo’s eyes burned with killing intent as he said, “I’ve wanted to fight you for a long time. An opportunity finally presented itself today! I finally have a chance to test your strength.”
Meng Luo took the initiative and charged out.
...
Yan Tian Nan did not dare to let his guard down. He quickly moved to defend himself. He had long heard about Meng Luo.

At this time, Feng Qing Yang lowered his alt.i.tude. He, along with Elder Huo and the others, watched Meng Luo’s battle with Yan Tian from afar.
Feng Qing Yang shook his head and said with a smile, “I can see that Meng Luo has been itching to fight…”
Elder Huo, who was standing behind Feng Qing Yang, nodded with a smile. “Master Meng Luo has always been like that. However, this Heavenly Sword Celestial Emperor Yan Tian Nan is no pushover.”
…
Meanwhile, Meng Luo and Yan Tian Nan continued fighting. After exchanging hundreds of moves, there was still no clear winner. Moreover, based on their attacks, it was clear that neither of them had held back.
At this moment, Feng Qing Yang called out expressionlessly, “Meng Luo, come back.”
Meng Luo did not hesitate and flew back immediately as soon as he heard Feng Qing Yang’s words. After he returned to his spot behind Feng Qing Yang, he said to Yan Tian Nan, “The Heavenly Sword Celestial Emperor truly lives up to his reputation.”
Yan Tian Nan’s eyes narrowed slightly when Meng Luo abruptly flew away. After a moment, he said, “The Heavenly Savage Celestial Emperor is truly strong as well…”
Then, Yan Tian Nan looked at Feng Qing Yang and cupped his fists together as he said, “I’m Yan Tian Nan. Greetings, Lord Feng Qing Yang.”
Meng Luo’s expression darkened when he heard Yan Tian Nan forgoing the t.i.tle ‘Heavenly Emperor’ when addressing Feng Qing Yang.
Similarly, Elder Huo and the others’ expressions darkened as well.
“Are you going to stop me?” Feng Qing Yang asked bluntly. His face remained expressionless as he stared at Yan Tian Nan.
Yan Tian Nan said solemnly, “Lord Feng, the Heavenly Emperor Palace is currently under the care of the t.i.tle Temple. If you intend to return to your throne, you’ll have to wait for the temple’s orders. The current Heavenly Emperor and the Branch Temple Master have gone to the main t.i.tle Temple to report your return. So please wait for a moment.”
Feng Qing Yang was slightly taken aback when Yan Tian Nan asked him to wait for the orders of the t.i.tle Temple and Wu Hong Qing. The words were so ridiculous that he was rendered speechless.
Meng Luo and Elder Huo, who recalled how Feng Qing Yang said killing Wu Hong Qing was no different from killing an ant, only looked at Yan Tian Nan as though he was an idiot.
After a moment, Meng Luo said with a sneer, “Yan Tian Nan, the Temple Master of the t.i.tle Temple isn’t qualified to order our Lord Heavenly Emperor around.”
“Meng Luo, although our fight was a draw, if you blaspheme our Lord Temple Master again, I’ll fight you to death!”
“Do you think I’m afraid of you?” Meng Luo sneered.
Meng Luo was about to speak again when Feng Qing Yang raised his hand to interject. Meng Luo obediently fell silent.
Feng Qing Yan looked at Yan Tian Nan and asked again with frosty eyes, “You really intend to stop me?”
Yan Tian Nan, who was being stared at by Feng Qing Yang, felt his hair stand on end. Nonetheless, he had no intention of yielding. He said calmly, “Lord Feng, please wait for the Lord Temple Master’s orders.”
As soon as Yan Tian Nan’s voice fell, two rays of light shot out of Feng Qing Yang’s eyes.
Under everyone’s eyes, the huge sword at Yan Tian Nan’s back suddenly unsheathed itself.
Swoos.h.!.+
In just a moment, the rays of light struck, instantly killing Yan Tian Nan and turning him into a mist of blood.
Following that, the huge sword, a lord-grade celestial weapon, suddenly began to crack. At the same time, a voice laden with anguish cried out, “Forgive me, forgive me…”
The voice, which belonged to the sword spirit, suddenly came to an abrupt halt as the sword shattered into pieces, killing the sword spirit.
Elder Huo could not help but gulp when he watched this scene. In the past, he used to be the artifact spirit of the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da. He was naturally affected by the death of the sword spirit. He could sense its helplessness.
Weapon spirits and artifact spirits would usually die when their respective weapons were destroyed. Perhaps, they would survive if the opponent found them a new celestial weapon to be their hosts. However, which opponent would take the time to find hosts for their enemies’ artifact spirits?
Elder Huo looked at the young man in front of him with an expression of grat.i.tude. It was all thanks to the young man that he was able to escape from the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da and reshape his body, effectively freeing him from his fate as an artifact spirit.
At this moment…
“Heavenly Emperor Feng! Please have mercy!”
A voice rang from the Heavenly Emperor Palace before two figures appeared. It was none other than the current Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven and the Branch Temple Master of the t.i.tle Temple in the Solitary Destructive Heaven. The duo’s expressions were very grim at this moment. They did not expect to witness Feng Qing Yang killing Yan Tian Nan as soon as they returned. Although they tried to intercede, it was too late. Not only that, but even Yan Tian Nan’s emperor-grade celestial sword with a sword spirit was destroyed; even the sword spirit was not spared.
Feng Qing Yang looked at the duo and asked tonelessly, “Are both of you going to stop me as well?”
The duo’s expressions changed immediately. Then, the current Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven hastily said, “From today onward, Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang, the Invincible Sword Celestial, will continue his rule over the Solitary Destructive Heaven. Those from the t.i.tle Temple must leave the Heavenly Emperor Palace immediately. This is the order of the Temple Master of the main t.i.tle Temple.”
Following that, people began to leave the Heavenly Emperor Palace one after another. With the order from their Temple Master, they naturally would not stay any longer than necessary. Moreover, word had begun to spread that Yan Tian Nan was killed with just a strike, even his emperor-grade celestial sword and its spirit were destroyed. They were shocked when they heard that Feng Qing Yang could kill with his eyes.
Most of these people were the subordinates of the current Heavenly Emperor while they were in the main t.i.tle Temple. He was the captain of their patrol team in the past, and they had followed him here.
The current Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven looked at Feng Qing Yang and said with a smile, “Heavenly Emperor Feng, I’ve evacuated the palace. I was only acting under the orders of the t.i.tle Temple and temporarily took over this position. Now that you’ve returned, I’ll naturally return everything to you.”
