Divine King of Honour-Chapter 454 - 453 Xu Bai’s Despair

After two hours,

Xu Nian had completely absorbed the Ancestor Vein Power within Xu Bai's body.

After absorbing all of this Ancestor Vein Power, Xu Nian's own Ancestor Vein Power had soared to the Eighth Rank.

An Eighth Rank Ancestor Vein Power, this was unprecedented in the history of the Xu Family.

The key point was that the Ancestor Vein Power in Xu Nian's body had not even reached saturation yet.

That meant Xu Nian still qualified to advance to the Ninth Rank, possibly even the Tenth Rank.

Besides the breakthrough in Ancestor Vein Power, Xu Nian discovered a strange new force within his blood.

If he wasn't mistaken, this power should be the Origin Power of the Overlord Dominator Body.

However, as soon as this power entered Xu Nian's body, it was devoured by the Nine Dragon Supreme Bloodline Origin.

There was no helping it; the energy of the Nine Dragon Supreme Body was simply too overbearing.

In its presence, the bloodline of the Overlord Dominator Body had no choice but to be devoured.

"Boom!"

At that moment, a dull sound emerged from within Xu Nian's body.

His once-depleted Dantian began to surge with powerful Spiritual Energy.

He had broken through!

His Spiritual Cultivation had also made a breakthrough at that moment.

That final sword had drained his Spiritual Energy completely.

Unexpectedly, this led to a renewal within his body, and his cultivation had broken through at that very moment, reaching the level of a Two-star War Saint.

Feeling the Spiritual Energy in his Dantian become abundant again, even more so than before, a smile appeared on Xu Nian's face.

He hadn't expected that killing Xu Bai would bring so many benefits.

Not only a breakthrough in cultivation, but his Ancestor Vein Power had also greatly increased.

This meant his original strength was constantly improving.

"Let's continue on the journey. I wonder if the Xu Family will feel the pain from losing Xu Bai?" Xu Nian glanced at Xu Bai's corpse on the ground, his eyes revealing a cold sneer.

He then transformed into a streak of light and continued towards the deeper parts of the ancestral land.

...

At Longyu Mountain, within the main hall where the Family Head Xu resided.

"It's terrible, Father!"

Xu Zhong rushed into the hall from outside, his face filled with anxiety.

"Panicking like this, what kind of demeanor is that? You should remember, you are a Saint," Xu Tianhong chastised unhappily.

He was never quite satisfied with his two sons, Xu Ming and Xu Zhong.

Although both had reached Saint Level, given their talents, they would be stuck at Saint Level for life.

And this was after the Xu Family had poured extensive resources into them.

However, Xu Zhong did have a worthy son.

Xu Tianhong was very pleased with his own grandson, Xu Bai.

He had long decided that as soon as Xu Bai entered the Half-Emperor Realm, he would pass on the position of Family Head to Xu Bai.

"Father, it's bad news, something has happened to Xu Bai!" Xu Zhong ignored Xu Tianhong's scolding and hurriedly spoke.

"What? What happened?" Xu Tianhong immediately sat up straight.

Xu Bai was the selected successor for the Family Head of the Xu Family, the future helmsman of the family.

If something happened to him, it would be a huge loss for the Xu Family.

"Bai... Bai'er, he... he is dead!" Xu Zhong stammered, his voice thick with deep sadness.

As he finished speaking, he produced a Jade Token in his hand.

However, the jade token was already shattered.

"Whoosh!"

Xu Tianhong's figure instantly turned into an afterimage and appeared in front of Xu Zhong.

As he looked down at the jade token in Xu Zhong's hand, his hands were also trembling nonstop.

This was no ordinary jade token; it was Xu Bai's Soul Jade Plate.

Now that the jade token was shattered, it meant that Xu Bai's soul had dissipated.

In other words, Xu Bai was already dead.

"Who did this?" Xu Tianhong bellowed.

Xu Bai was the grandson he cared about most, a genius who was poised to be unprecedented in the history of the Xu Family.

The death of Xu Bai was a blow to them, comparable to losing a Battle Emperor Expert.

"Bai'er, he was still in the ancestral land and hadn't come out; he must have been killed there. It couldn't have been a wild beast. Even if a wild beast is strong, without Spiritual Wisdom, Bai'er could have escaped if he couldn't beat it. So, there could only be one person who killed him," Xu Zhong quickly said.

He had thought about this issue on the way here.

Other than that one person, it wouldn't be possible for anyone else to kill his son.

But how could that guy have the ability to be a match for his son?

"You mean Xu Nian?" A fierce light also burst forth in Xu Tianhong's eyes.

That was the only possibility he could think of.

Now in the Xu Family Ancestral Land, besides the Eighteen Holy Guards, there was only Xu Nian.

Outsiders couldn't possibly enter.

The Eighteen Holy Guards wouldn't kill Xu Bai.

Thus, the killer could only be one person.

"Not good!"

Thinking this, Xu Tianhong's expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly had eighteen jade tokens in his hand.

Among these jade tokens, two had already shattered.

Upon noticing this scene, a strong Killing Intent burst forth from Xu Tianhong's eyes.

"Very well, to actually kill so many Saints of my Xu Family, and even the future Family Head, Xu Nian, it seems I've underestimated you," Xu Tianhong's eyes filled with murderous intent, and his heart was raging with anger.

"Father, you must avenge Bai'er and wash away our humiliation. If Xu Nian doesn't die, our Xu Family might face total destruction!" Xu Zhong said, his face filled with agitation.

"Hmph, you don't have to tell me. This scourge Xu Nian must die. Quick, pass my order, enter the Ancestor Vein, gather the Eighteen Holy Guards, have them stop guarding the other safe zones and head directly to the Ninth Safe Zone. Xu Nian will definitely go there for his mother; we just need to wait for him there," Xu Tianhong said, squinting his eyes.

"Yes!" Xu Zhong immediately acknowledged.

He took the token from Xu Tianhong's hand and prepared to leave.

"Wait, go inform the Supreme Third Elder. Tell him I'm asking him to leave seclusion. At the critical moment, he must suppress his realm to ensure that Xu Nian doesn't leave the ancestral land alive," Xu Tianxu spoke up.

"Supreme Third Elder?" Xu Zhong was momentarily stunned.

He then nodded heavily.

Although he felt having the Supreme Third Elder make a move was overkill, Xu Nian had killed his son.

Having the Supreme Third Elder take action meant Xu Nian was undoubtedly doomed.

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

As Xu Zhong was about to turn around and leave, two faint sounds echoed in the hall.

Xu Zhong and Xu Tianhong's pupils suddenly constricted, then they both looked towards the sixteen tokens.

Upon looking, their hearts were shocked, and a strong Killing Intent surged up once more.

Because among these sixteen tokens, two had simultaneously shattered at that moment.

This meant that two more of the remaining Sixteen Holy Guards had been killed.

"Xu Nian, if I don't kill you, I will never call myself the Family Head!" Xu Tianhong's Killing Intent surged and the power of the Half-Emperor instantly swept across the entire hall.
