Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 85 - Resolution

Chapter 85: Chapter 85 Resolution

Shi Pojun was in imminent danger.

Even without any injuries, his combat power was already inferior to Shi Hao’s, let alone now that one of his arms was disabled!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Under the storm-like onslaught from Shi Hao, how could Shi Pojun defend with just one arm?

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

He kept getting hit by fists, and even though he could now communicate with the Ice Element to cast a frosty Shield for himself, under the scorching flames, the ice melted immediately, still posing a huge threat to him.

Now, even without experts, anyone with eyes could see clearly that Shi Pojun’s downfall was imminent.

And once Shi Pojun died… the Shi Family would be finished.

“Charge! Everyone, charge together!”

“If our ancestor cannot prevail, the Shi Family will cease to exist!”

“Kill!”

The Shi Family members were all passionately agitated, joining the fray one after another.

However, Shi Hao didn’t even need to hit them directly. Just the sweep of his fist caused those who rushed at him to be blown away, demonstrating his absolute overpowering strength.

But these people were desperate, even deliberately rushing in front of Shi Hao to cover the line of fire, acting as human shields to buy time for Shi Pojun to catch his breath.

—They didn’t know that Shi Pojun’s right arm had been burned useless and thought it was just a minor injury, assuming he could recover his combat power after a short rest.

This indeed delayed Shi Hao, but with each punch, someone would be blasted apart, so how long could the Shi Family’s numbers hold against him?

The key point was, not every member of the Shi Family was so fearlessly valiant.

“Damn it! Damn it!” Shi Pojun watched one after another of his clansmen get blown to bits by Shi Hao, filled with both rage and hatred, but what could he do?

The disparity in strength between the two was now quite apparent.

“You wretch, do you know that our Shi Family descends from the Eleventh Elder of the White Cloud Sect? Your mindless killing spree is bound to enrage our honorable ancestor, who will send an expert to suppress and execute you!” he threatened.

This was a major secret within the Shi Family, known only to a few individuals with high enough status because the White Cloud Sect only accepted disciples with a Spirit Root, and even as descendants of the Eleventh Elder, they had no recourse, so it was better to keep silent to avoid resentment.

However, being descendants of the Eleventh Elder wasn’t without its perks.

For instance, each generation would receive a “Soul Casting Pill,” which could help a Martial Artist at the Nine Extremes level to condense a Soul Seed and step into the Soul Nurturing realm.

Of course, those who broke through in this manner had no further potential to advance.

But in a place like Hua Yuan Nation, a Martial Venerable was already at the pinnacle, enough to suppress the family’s fortunes and prosper indefinitely.

Now, with the family at the brink of life and death, he had no choice but to disclose such a secret.

The White Cloud Sect again.

Although Shi Hao had pried quite a lot of information about the White Cloud Sect from Liu Yixiao, Liu Yixiao was only a small disciple of the Pill Yard, so how could he possibly know too many secrets?

It seemed that the Royal Family and the four major houses all had deep ties with the White Cloud Sect, no wonder they had managed to exist for so long.

But what of it?

Could it stop Shi Hao from killing?

Boom!

Shi Hao punched and kicked, slaughtering the people who rushed at him cleanly. Although there was still a large crowd of the Shi Family watching, no one else dared to charge forward to their death.

“How, how dare you!” Shi Pojun gritted his teeth. He had already revealed the backing of the White Cloud Sect, so why was Shi Hao still not intimidated?

“Don’t you know? In the White Cloud Sect, there are at least a hundred strong fighters like me, and above us, there are even stronger beings, known as Other Shore experts, true powerhouses, who could kill you with just a thought.”

“Stop immediately!”

But the response he received was Shi Hao’s attacks, fierce and relentless as a storm.

It was a situation that couldn’t be defended for long, especially with Shi Pojun in such a state.

Thump!

Shi Hao’s fist boomed out, piercing through Shi Pojun’s vulnerability and slamming heavily into his chest. The terrifying power surged through, and Shi Pojun staggered back again and again, and with each step he took, his face grew uglier, for as the frightful flames burned, his heart rapidly lost vitality.

He felt that his blood was no longer flowing, and in an instant, darkness fell before his eyes, unable to breathe.

“No one can threaten me!”

Shi Hao stated indifferently, and with another punch, boom, Shi Pojun was blasted away, his body splitting into pieces in midair.

Martial Venerable Shi Pojun, dead.

The people of the Shi Family all held their heads, their faces ashen.

They had only just learnt that they had a Martial Venerable in their family, but before they could enjoy this for long, this Martial Venerable was brutally killed before their eyes. How could they accept such a drastic rise and fall, such joy and sorrow?

Shi Hao completely ignored them, simply walking towards Shi Fengyun.

Shi Fengyun’s severed arm had been crudely tended to, wrapped in cloth and applied with antiseptic medicine, so it wasn’t a big issue for the time being. But as he saw Shi Hao approaching, his already pale face grew even paler.

“Kneel down, and apologize to my foster father!” Shi Hao said flatly.

“I apologize! Can you spare my life?” Shi Fengyun asked miserably.

“No,” Shi Hao shook his head, “However, I will let those of the Shi Family who are under thirty years old live.”

When his foster father had been treated unfairly years ago, those who were now thirty years old were just youths back then, certainly incapable of harming his foster father. Therefore, Shi Hao did not mind showing them some leniency.

Shi Fengyun’s face changed: “You actually want to kill all the adults over thirty in my Shi Family?”

“Correct!” Shi Hao nodded.

“You devil!” Shi Fengyun shouted fiercely.

“When facing an enemy, what does it matter if I incarnate into an Asura or a devil?” Shi Hao spoke coolly. Only by adopting such an approach could he ensure that no one would dare harm his loved ones, because before they would act, they would first think of the terrible consequences of offending Shi Hao.

Shi Fengyun hesitated for a moment, then said to Shi Hao, “I hope you keep your word!”

“Listen, disciples of the Shi Family, those over thirty years of age must commit suicide immediately, to leave a glimmer of hope for the future of the family!” he called out to his family.

This made the people of the Shi Family both furious and desperate. They were of the Shi Family, a noble house that walked with their heads high in the Imperial Capital, but now?

They were actually being forced to take their own lives!

“Shi Tianyang, you really took in a good son!” Shi Fengyun shouted loudly, “I won the first battle, but now, in this one, I have lost miserably!”

He kneeled on the ground, knocked his head on the floor three times, then suddenly sprang up and crashed into a stone pillar. With a splatter, his head burst open instantly.

Shi Fengyun rolled on the ground, but his eyes were still wide open, staring at Shi Hao as if to say, if Shi Hao did not keep his promise, he would not let him go, even if he had to become a vengeful spirit.
