Chapter 301: Unstoppable All the Way

Chapter 301: Unstoppable All the Way

Things were going badly. Everyone felt an icy chill, knowing that the young man, before arriving at their residence, would most likely ensure their silence.

Realizing the gravity of the situation, everyone felt a chill of dread. This was a massacre, and most people present were likely to perish.

"Fight him!"

Someone shouted and activated their precious artifact, causing a burst of dazzling light and radiant runes to cover the courtyard.

With a loud crack, the sound of the artifact shattering filled the air, and a scream followed as one of them was crushed to the ground by Shi Hao’s foot.

“Old Ninth, you—”

The others were enraged and shocked. The person who was crushed by Shi Hao was an important member of their group, but just moments ago, he was the first to attempt escape and incite others to charge forward while trying to flee himself.

In the face of imminent death and disaster, everyone should have united, but seeing this betrayal in the midst of their anger only deepened their despair.

At this point, their emotions were more unstable than ever. Facing the figure of the young demon king, everyone could only furrow their brows and launch their strongest attacks.

At the same time, someone shouted to spread the news of this location and to call for help from those outside the inn.

However, it was all in vain because the courtyard was sealed off. Various runes intertwined, creating a barrier of light that isolated them from the outside world.

Around the courtyard, several array flags emitted light, trapping the space.

Clearly, this was a battle with no suspense. Shi Hao, merged with the black figure, had formed an indestructible golden body, with combat power comparable to a powerful king.

More people arrived outside the Tiger Gate Inn, including some experts from the Martial King’s Manor, who had come to offer assistance upon hearing of the battle.

“Did anything unexpected happen?” asked Shi Ziming, a cousin of Shi Zengteng. He knew that the young man was extraordinary and, upon seeing the Rain Clan’s iron cavalry surrounding the area but not entering, he became worried and said, “Let’s go in and take a look.”

The Martial King’s Manor had a close relationship with the Rain Clan; they were allies, and Shi Zengteng’s lineage had marital ties with them. Therefore, a single word from him prompted action.

As soon as they stepped deeper into the inn, they sensed something was wrong and smelled blood. As they approached the courtyard, they were shocked to see a large array glowing.

“Everyone, attack together and break the array!” Shi Ziming ordered.

Everyone shouted in unison and launched their attacks. In an instant, the light surged, and divine power swept through the entire courtyard.

In fact, as they attacked, the array flags in the courtyard were retracted by someone, automatically opening up and revealing the scene inside.

The important figures who arrived looked at the courtyard, all trembling. The ground was covered in blood, and the experts from the Rain King’s Manor lay dead in pools of blood, having lost their life force.

“Yumu!” someone exclaimed in shock.

There was still one person fighting the young man who radiated black light—Yumu, a renowned general of the Rain Clan who had survived battles in the Hundred Clans battlefield.

His troops were elite, and the iron cavalry surrounding the Tiger Gate Inn were led by him.

However, now he was disheveled, having exhausted all his strength and used all his precious techniques, but was suppressed by a single hand from the opponent, causing him to bend and half-bury himself in the ground.

“He is—” Yumu turned back and shouted to the crowd, trying to reveal something.

“Puh!”

In the end, Yumu spat out blood. He was crushed by that hand, his bones shattered in multiple places, and he was buried in the ground, dying on the spot.

Everyone was horrified. Yumu was a supreme expert who had walked the Hundred Clans battlefield and survived, regardless of the outcome.

Being crushed to death and turned into a cold corpse by a single hand was terrifying and made everyone’s hair stand on end.

“What a young man, so ruthless. Killing eight or nine lives, you are truly a demon king,” Shi Ziming said angrily.

“Do you still have any shame?” Shi Hao asked calmly, but with an authoritative tone that made people shudder. He coldly continued, “You came to kill me, and when I struck back, you blame me for being ruthless. This is a manifestation of shamelessness to the extreme, or is this your nature, or are you just joking?”

Such questioning, with sarcasm and mockery, made those who were already angry blush with embarrassment, though they remained indignant.

“The Rain Clan is truly disappointing, showing no improvement. Look at the people who came, they’re simply not enough to kill,” Shi Hao shook his head.

The Rain Clan members' eyes reddened. Earlier, Yumu and a few strong experts formed a team and led the charge, allowing others to assist. But in just a short time, all the experts had been wiped out.

At this moment, people could not see Shi Hao’s expression. As he was merged with the indestructible golden body, unless he actively manifested it, people could only see the flowing black light and the surging aura of a warrior. However, they could sense his contempt and scorn.

“Who are you?” Shi Ziming demanded, as Yumu seemed to have tried to reveal Shi Hao’s identity before dying, but only managed to utter two meaningless words.

In fact, those who had arrived were all nervous, even contemplating fleeing immediately. With Yumu dead, they knew they were no match, even with their numbers.

“Go and be reunited in death,” Shi Hao’s voice turned cold as he advanced towards Shi Ziming.

In terms of bloodline, Shi Hao was a distant uncle, but now, there was no familial affection left. If they knew his identity and had the ability to kill him, they would definitely not show mercy.

He soared into the air like a black metal figure, cold and ruthless, wielding a large flag that swept through with a thunderous boom, changing the heavens and earth, accompanied by wind and thunder.

With a “puh,” Shi Ziming was struck and coughed up blood. This result was shocking. In just one clash, the expert from the Martial King’s Manor was injured.

“King!”

Only this term could explain it; otherwise, how could one be so powerful and terrifying?

Shi Hao said nothing, observing the others as he made another move. He did not wish to turn into a demon and kill everyone, but he would not spare the leaders.

“Attack together!” Shi Ziming commanded. This person was impossible to fight head-on, at least not by one alone. He called upon his clansmen and the Rain Clan’s iron cavalry to charge forward.

Unfortunately, Shi Hao did not intend to give him a chance. He acted forcefully, unwilling to delay further.

Ten openings to the heavenly realm were activated simultaneously. The void twisted, and radiant runes surged forward like a tide, solidifying the void. Shi Ziming and several leaders were immobilized.

This was an absolute confinement, with no suspense. They could not break free, which was very exhausting, but Shi Hao did not hold back; he wanted to end the battle quickly.

“Puh!”

He charged through, severing Shi Ziming’s head, which fell to the ground.

Almost simultaneously, the other leaders were also decapitated, dying on the spot, with no chance of escape.

The remaining iron cavalry was stunned. It seemed the battle had ended almost as soon as it began, leaving everyone trembling, even those who had experienced blood and fire.

“Kill!” Some shouted, being determined fighters who were not afraid of the demon-like young man.

As a result, a sword light flashed, and these people were sliced in half, lying dead on the ground, with blood gushing out. The place was quite bloody.

Someone shouted, “The Rain Clan will not spare you. No matter where you run, you will die.” But their tone was clearly blustering.

Shi Hao flicked his finger, and a blood bloom appeared on the person’s forehead. The person fell to the ground, lifeless.

“There is no need for your Rain Clan to trouble me. I’ll go straight to your door to seek an explanation,” Shi Hao said as he strode away.

News of the events at the Tiger Gate Inn quickly spread, causing an uproar. The nearby crowds surged, and many people rushed to the scene, all in shock.

What kind of young man dares to be so reckless, killing people from the Martial King’s Manor and challenging the Rain Clan? His ferocity was unmatched.

In fact, as the Rain Clan’s experts fell and suffered a great defeat, iron cavalry rushed back to their clan to report, but they could not outpace Shi Hao.

He did not reveal his true Kunpeng techniques but used the residual power from earlier, moving at lightning speed, with what seemed like a pair of golden wings behind him, crossing the imperial capital and quickly arriving at the Rain Clan’s estate.

It was a vast estate with a grand gatehouse, imposing doors, and two stone beasts flanking it, creating a magnificent and grand sight.

Some time ago, the great demon god had destroyed it, but after repairs and renovations by the Rain Clan, the estate had become even grander.

With gray-red walls and light-golden tiles, it sprawled like a fortress. The Rain Clan had meticulously arranged it, inscribing numerous runes and arrays to protect their entrance.

Standing here, Shi Hao was reminded of many things. The Rain Clan had never inspired any goodwill in him. Apart from Shi Yi’s mother, the attitude of the Rain Clan back then had left him with an extremely negative impression.

When Shi Ziling took him away from the imperial capital and fled to the western frontier, the Rain Clan had sent many experts to hunt them down, nearly causing a disaster for their family.

Back then, the clan had used divine orders in an attempt to exterminate them, leaving Shi Ziling severely injured and in a weakened state.

Even after many years, the Rain Clan was still not reconciled. They continued to search for them and even found the second ancestral land. Even knowing that Qing Feng was a substitute, they still took action against him.

The Rain Clan’s relentless and overbearing attitude made Shi Hao clench his fists every time he thought of it. They had truly gone too far.

“Forget about the grudges with the Mountains of Eternity and the Void Divine Realm. Even recently, when you tried to deal with my grandfather, that still needs to be settled.”

This was not Shi Hao’s first encounter with them, and his resentment had long been established. Therefore, upon arriving here, he had no hesitation and a burning battle intent.

“Who are you? Get away. Do not block the entrance to the Rain King’s Manor.”

“We are talking to you. Are you deaf? This place is not for someone like you.”

It was clear that the guards of the estate were very impolite. Seeing Shi Hao standing there and staring at the estate, they shouted loudly to drive him away.

Boom!

Shi Hao acted directly, ignoring them. He materialized a massive black hand, overwhelmingly powerful. With a thunderous sound, it struck the grand gatehouse.

Even though the estate was protected by a great array and covered with runes, it still shattered under Shi Hao’s full-force strike.

The grand building comparable to the city gates exploded into fragments, collapsing with a deafening roar that shook the long street. The nearby onlookers were stunned. What kind of person was this? First, a great demon god caused chaos here, and now someone directly demolished the Rain King’s Manor’s gate.
