Chapter 187: Chapter 187: A Dog Has the Audacity to Be Insolent Before Our Noble Blood Race?

Faced with the Great Celestial Dog’s surging killing intent,

all the members of the Vampire Clan remained calm, completely unfazed.

"How dare a mere dog act so brazenly before our noble Blood Race?"

The young member of the Vampire Clan made no attempt to hide his scorn.

The Great Celestial Dog was not about to tolerate such arrogance.

In an instant, his fingers closed tightly around the Samurai Sword at his waist, and he wrenched it from its sheath.

His killing intent then coalesced into a cross that clung to the tip of the Samurai Sword.

The Great Celestial Dog charged, gripping his Samurai Sword and bringing it down in a vicious slash toward the young member of the Vampire Clan.

The Great Celestial Dog had been seething from the moment these members of the Vampire Clan opened their mouths with their high-and-mighty attitude,

issuing commands as if he were a mere toy.

After all, back in the White-Red Empire, the Great Celestial Dog had held a position of supreme authority.

Those who could stand with him as equals could be counted on one hand.

Yet now, any random member of this Vampire Clan dared to speak to him with such insolence.

That was why the Great Celestial Dog had attacked without hesitation.

He had to kill a few of them to make this Vampire Clan take him seriously.

The young member of the Vampire Clan opened his mouth, revealing a sharp fang. His mouth then gaped wider and wider.

Visible sonic waves radiated from his mouth, weaving and overlapping, their pitch growing ever sharper, ever more piercing.

Yet the other members of the Vampire Clan seemed completely unaffected.

But Ji Shengyue felt as if countless steel needles were stabbing into her brain, burrowing ever deeper.

Ji Shengyue cried out in pain and slid from her chair, clutching her head with both hands.

The young member of the Vampire Clan had done it deliberately.

They had all noticed that ever since the Great Jing Empire had gained a so-called Deity,

Ji Shengyue’s attitude had shifted. She no longer kowtowed to the Lighthouse Empire, but was subtly attempting to engage with them as an equal.

This was something the Lighthouse Empire would not tolerate.

They saw the Great Jing Empire as a watchdog, trained to sit beside the Great Xia Empire.

A watchdog whose sole purpose was to keep a close eye on the Great Xia Empire.

But now this watchdog was deluding itself into thinking it could join its master at the dinner table. How could the Lighthouse Empire possibly stand for that?

This time,

they had come, on one hand, to issue new orders,

and on the other, to give Ji Shengyue a harsh wake-up call.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t mind selecting a new monarch who would properly obey the Lighthouse Empire’s commands.

The intense sonic attack briefly affected the Great Celestial Dog as well.

However, the Great Celestial Dog opened its cavernous maw, a thick, coppery stench wafting out,

and unleashed a tremendous, deafening roar.

The sound poured from its mouth like a torrent. In an instant, the teacups on the table shattered,

and the water within danced on the tabletop before trickling to the floor.

"How dare you profane the glory of the Riemoer Clan!"

The young vampire extended his clawed hand, intending to block the attack head-on.

As the Great Celestial Dog swung his Samurai Sword, a slight twist of his wrist produced a cold glint of light.

It forced the young vampire to squint, but in that fleeting moment,

the descending Samurai Sword suddenly accelerated, cleanly severing the young vampire’s hand.

"Argh!"

The young vampire’s expression contorted.

He had never imagined that facing the Great Celestial Dog’s attack would cost him a hand.

’So powerful. He’s worthy of the immense price I paid. It seems my gamble paid off,’

Ji Shengyue was thrilled, thinking to herself.

However, the Great Celestial Dog had no intention of stopping there.

He stepped forward, his Samurai Sword slashing out once more.

"Philip, I trust you’ll remember this lesson."

Just then, the still air seemed to be sliced apart by invisible threads.

Prince Brooks, who had been sitting in silence, finally revealed his hidden, terrifying power.

His movements were swift and stealthy, like a phantom gliding through the night, his trajectory impossible to follow.

In the blink of an eye, he stood before the Great Celestial Dog’s towering, mountain-like form.

Brooks’s eyes, deep as icy pools, radiated an undeniable authority.

He reached out with a hand as pale as frost and as delicate as fine porcelain,

gently but firmly closing his grip around the Samurai Sword—a blade that had weathered countless storms

and was steeped in endless Mysterious Power.

The blade was fearsome, its cold light radiating outward, but within his palm, it seemed to instantly lose all its edge and sharpness.

The Great Celestial Dog roared in fury, the sound echoing like rolling thunder.

The muscles on his right arm bulged like rolling hills as he struggled desperately to break free from the sudden restraint.

Brooks remained as steady as a rock, a faint, unassailable smile playing on his lips.

His pale hand was like an iron vise; no matter how violently the Great Celestial Dog struggled, it did not loosen or tremble in the slightest.

Just then, a faint mist of blood began to emanate from Brooks.

The mist did not come from an external source but seeped slowly from his very body,

forming a stark contrast with his ethereal demeanor, adding an aura of mystery and terror.

The blood mist seemed to have a life of its own, swirling gently around him,

and effortlessly neutralized the streams of Mysterious Power emanating from the Great Celestial Dog.

The once-rampant, dark currents of power vanished like smoke the moment they touched the mist.

「Then,」

Brooks’s right hand suddenly clenched, as if gripping the very throat of time.

The Samurai Sword, a witness to countless battles and deaths, began to slowly twist and deform in his palm,

before shattering into a thousand glittering shards that scattered at the Great Celestial Dog’s feet.

The scene was both an ultimate display of power and a definitive end to the conflict. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Before the Great Celestial Dog could recover from its shock, Brooks struck again.

This time, he merely snapped his fingers.

The seemingly insignificant, casual gesture unleashed a cataclysm.

The Great Celestial Dog’s chest instantly caved in, as if struck by an invisible sledgehammer.

The bones within its body seemed to lose all control, bursting forth from the flesh.

They twisted into grotesque shapes, like pale pythons writhing in the air—a hair-raising sight.

Blood gushed out like a fountain, staining the ground a shocking shade of crimson.

The Great Celestial Dog’s body was now a mangled wreck, devoid of its former imposing might.

Witnessing this, Ji Shengyue and Zong Yajuan’s faces turned white as paper, their eyes filled with disbelief and utter terror.

Those bones were no longer a sturdy frame supporting life, but a symbol of pure terror.

The Great Celestial Dog’s body was no longer that of an invincible powerhouse,

but a completely shattered being on the verge of annihilation.

Blood gushed endlessly from his body, dyeing the ground red.

His life force was draining away at a shocking speed,

as if his very soul had been siphoned away, leaving only a battered, gruesome shell.
