BOOM!
A huge meteor fell from the sky, crashing down in a remote area of the God Realm.
It landed in a low-level domain. Around it were a bunch of 200–300 level "small monsters."
However, those small monsters were emperor-tier BOSSes, just lower-level emperor-tier BOSSes.
As the meteor fell, the surrounding emperor-tier BOSS "minions" were all stunned, turning their heads to look at the "meteor" that had struck the ground.
But after the dust settled, a figure slowly walked out from where the meteor had landed.
Soon, Zhang Yue and Xingtian arrived.
But they were still a step late.
When they reached the spot, they only saw the ground strewn with bodies, over two hundred emperor-tier BOSS corpses lying everywhere.
In the air, the rift opened by that meteor flickered, emitting a glow.
Xingtian frowned slightly, "The rift is bigger than last time. At this rate, after a few more occurrences the God Realm's power will seep through. When that happens, the world will plunge into chaos."
At this moment Zhang Yue noticed a problem.
He went to one of the BOSS corpses to inspect and said, "These monsters were not killed by the impact of the meteor. They were cut down deliberately."
"What?", Xingtian seemed to have never noticed this. She hurried to Zhang Yue's side.
Sure enough, the nearby BOSS corpses had very obvious wounds, and it was clear at a glance that those wounds were sword cuts.
Looking back toward where the meteor fell, there was only a big crater; there was no actual meteor.
Xingtian said in a low voice, "It seems this matter is more complicated than I imagined."
At this, Zhang Yue looked to the right front and said, "Let's follow this direction and go take a look."
You could see: in the direction Zhang Yue pointed, the ground was covered with bodies.
Clearly, this was the killer's path.
Following that direction they traveled.
Not long after, on a patch of open ground, they found the killer.
Ahead, a human warrior wearing golden armor was trying to subdue an emperor-tier BOSS.
Standing before him was the emperor-tier BOSS "Hell Hunter" at level 500.
At the sight of the golden warrior, Zhang Yue's heart suddenly jolted.
"Demon Emperor, Yu!"
Just as Zhang Yue was stunned.
Xingtian, beside him, was even more astonished.
Her eyes shone faintly as she looked at the golden warrior and, with a slightly trembling voice, called, "Kai!"
"Is it you, Kai?"
'Kai?'
Zhang Yue was shaken again.
He remembered Xingtian telling him that ten million people were originally drawn into the Otherworld, and in the end only two survived.
One was her, and the other was a person named Kai.
A hundred years ago, Kai and Xingtian together broke into a dynasty and took its core. Kai alone used the core to escape the God Realm, leaving Xingtian behind in the God Realm alone for a century.
Zhang Yue realized: the Kai Xingtian mentioned was the Demon Emperor, Yu.
Memories surged through Zhang Yue's mind.
Kai left the God Realm a hundred years ago.
That timing coincided with a hundred years ago when Zhang Yue, in his Asura form, fought a Tier 9 beast tide, and after barely defeating it, the Demon Emperor Yu suddenly appeared by crossing through the beast tide.
'So Kai is Yu.'
For a moment Zhang Yue felt his mind grow confused.
It turned out this Yu was never the Otherworld's big boss, but, like him, a human professional.
At that moment.
Hearing the call behind him.
The golden warrior turned around.
When he saw Xingtian, he was clearly stunned.
And when he saw Zhang Yue beside Xingtian, he was even more incredulous.
Seeing Xingtian in the God Realm did not surprise him much; at most memories and feelings stirred.
But seeing Zhang Yue here was something he never expected.
Immediately, the Demon Emperor Yu felt a murderous intent toward Zhang Yue.
Because he had always wanted to kill Zhang Yue in the Otherworld; it had been his goal there.
Only, in the Otherworld high-level professionals protected Zhang Yue, and Yu himself had not broken through to quasi-emperor level, so he could not beat Wolong, Hidden Dragon, and the others, and thus could not kill Zhang Yue.
So now, here, he seemed to see a perfect opportunity!
Because here, no one could protect Zhang Yue.
Thus Yu snatched up his greatsword and strode straight toward Zhang Yue.
"I didn't expect to meet you here," Yu said to Zhang Yue in a low voice, "The world thought you died in the God Tomb. Unexpectedly, you can still enter the God Realm?"
"Sorry to disappoint you," Zhang Yue looked at Yu and said lightly, "I'm not that easy to kill."
"Doesn't matter," Yu said, "Since you survived, it is fated that I will personally slay you."
"This place will become your tomb."
Killing intent overflowed from Yu.
Xingtian looked at the neither-man-nor-ghost Yu, disbelief filling her eyes, "Kai, how could you become like this..."
Zhang Yue slowly picked up his staff, a trace of killing intent appearing in his eyes, "Then let's see who can walk out of here alive."
At this, Yu told Xingtian, "Don't interfere. This is a private matter between me and the necromancer."
Xingtian said to Yu, "You are not his match."
Yu laughed heartily, "A rookie only in their three hundreds. I can't kill him?"
"What a joke!"
Ignoring Xingtian's warning, Yu resolutely raised his sword and rushed at Zhang Yue.
In his mind Zhang Yue was still the weak one who only dared to grow within his country's borders and not step into the death domain.
He had no idea what changes Zhang Yue had undergone.
Relying on his level 490, he thought he could easily handle Zhang Yue.
Although Xingtian realized Zhang Yue could deal with Yu, she still gripped her greatsword.
She glanced at Zhang Yue.
Her determined look already showed her attitude and stand: if Zhang Yue could not defeat Kai, then she would not hesitate to strike and defeat Kai.
Even if they were once comrades, Kai abandoned Xingtian in the God Realm for a century for his own selfish gain.
Under such circumstances, how could Xingtian still stand on Kai's side?
So she would never let Zhang Yue suffer even the slightest harm from Kai.
'Never!'
A powerful murderous intent surged in Xingtian's eyes.
At this moment, Demon Emperor Yu swung his sword at Zhang Yue.
However, before he could get close.
BOOM!
A strong bolt of thunderous electric power erupted from Zhang Yue, blasting him away.
In an instant, the Demon Emperor's full health bar was drained to zero.
