Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 405

Chapter 405: Chapter 407 Enough is enough? No way【3/7】

Three of the Five Elders were dead. This was a devastating blow to Fusang. The Fusang soldiers were so terrified they dared not move. Some were so frightened they wet their pants, while others turned and fled for their lives. The scene was one of utter chaos.

Dead? Three of the Five Elders were dead?

Anpei Qingyang and the Emperor of Fusang looked at each other, both seeing the word "fear" in the other’s eyes. Wu Tian’s power was simply too terrifying. Even now, they could not bring themselves to believe it. In their youth, the Five Elders had been as renowned as the Sword Saint of Fusang and had spent many years in cultivation at the Devotion National Shrine. Yet, before they could even confront Wu Tian, three of them were slain by his three powerful servants.

Now, only Hatoyama and Anpei were left, desperately holding on. Though not yet dead, they were being pummeled by the three Shikigami. Death was only a matter of time.

"No! If we must die, we refuse to die at the hands of your Shikigami!"

"That’s right! We want to fight Wu Tian and die by his hand!"

Hatoyama and Anpei knew they would not survive. But if they had to die, they, with their noble status, hoped to at least fall at the hands of Wu Tian himself. But what of Wu Tian? Since arriving, he had only made a move against Yamata no Orochi and had not lifted a finger since. This infuriated Hatoyama and Anpei. Are we worth even less than a snake?

If Wu Tian knew their thoughts, he would surely tell them, "Don’t overthink it. You are most certainly not."

Understanding Wu Tian’s intentions, the three Shikigami began their final, merciless assault on Hatoyama and Anpei.

"No!"

Ten minutes later, the heads of Hatoyama and Anpei were smashed apart by the Shikigami. Dark, foul-smelling blood splattered everywhere as repulsive Corpse Worms crawled out from their bodies.

At this moment, Wu Tian’s cold gaze fell upon the Emperor of Fusang and Anpei Qingyang. His Spiritual Sense picked up on something. Behind the Devotion National Shrine, a helicopter was taking off, guarded by a squadron of fighter jets.

"A clever move, Chief Minister of Fusang. Do you think you can escape just like that?" Wu Tian had no intention of stopping. He had said he would annihilate Fusang, and he would keep his word.

The Emperor of Fusang was a ruler in name only. The true authority holder of Fusang was the Chief Minister.

"His eyes are full of desperation, yet there is still a glimmer of hope in his gaze. Tell me, where is he trying to go?" Wu Tian asked the Emperor and Anpei Qingyang coldly. "Speak, and I will make your deaths less painful."

Anpei Qingyang couldn’t believe the Chief Minister would abandon him and flee alone. The Emperor of Fusang despised his treacherous subordinate even more.

"He is going to the Changwen Tunnel on the Beihai Grand Road," the Emperor of Fusang said.

"Indeed," Anpei Qingyang added gravely. "That tunnel opened in 1914. The construction was said to have been an incredibly arduous task under extremely harsh conditions, causing many workers to collapse from exhaustion. They were then cruelly buried alive. Nearby residents have even dug up human bones in the surrounding fields. In 1968, an earthquake damaged the tunnel walls, revealing numerous human skulls with head injuries. Since then, it has been known as ’the tunnel built with human bones.’ The real reason is that during the excavation, they accidentally broke into the Underworld. Fusang has two passages to the Underworld. The first is the Changwen Tunnel. The second is an abandoned Shrine Maiden Temple, which others call... Byakko."

"Why is he going there?" Wu Tian asked again.

The Emperor of Fusang, eager for the Chief Minister’s demise, held nothing back. "Because of a scabbard. The Chief Minister once acquired a scabbard that, through a series of events, ended up in the hands of people from the Underworld. When they discovered the scabbard might be an item belonging to an Immortal, they were overjoyed and wanted to reward him for it."

"So Anpei Saburo wants to seek shelter from the Underworld? And have them eliminate me in the process?"

Wu Tian laughed. Who would dare protect someone he had marked for death? And who *could*?

"Today, the Devotion National Shrine will fall, and all of you Fusangs here shall go down with it."

As he spoke, Wu Tian waved his right hand, unleashing a powerful force that shoved the Emperor of Fusang, Anpei Qingyang, and all the surrounding soldiers into the Devotion National Shrine. Then, clenching his right fist, Wu Tian smashed it down.
