Chapter 1396 - The Curtain Falls

Chapter 1396: The Curtain Falls
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
As the war continued, Paragon Tantai and Sky Roc’s inferiority was becoming clearer and clearer. They were completely suppressed and almost at their limits. Eastern Sage was delayed by the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord’s numerous clones and simply had no way to aid his subordinates.

Retreat!
The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor finally called out. A moment later, those who were still hesitating suddenly felt as though they were free. After all, they were core characters in the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect, and if they retreated without receiving official orders, none of them would be able to escape their fate of dying in the future, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor wanted to take revenge for this.
However, as the sound of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor rang out, all his subordinates no longer hesitated and started to retreat.

Before this, we allowed you guys to retreat but none did. Wanting to retreat now? It’s already too late. Kill them all.
The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord coldly commanded, his voice thundering through the air.
Before the emperor-level battle started, the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect was powerful enough to contend against them. Their immortal kings and immortal-foundation army wasn’t that much weaker in comparison. Especially so for the immortal-foundation level, the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect was actually the side possessing the advantage. In order to minimize casualties, the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord gave them a chance to retreat as, after all, he didn’t wish for everyone in the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect to die in the war.
However, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor refused. Now that the emperor-level fight has already begun, and victory was in their grasp, the morale of the Eastern Sage Army completely collapsed. They still wanted to dream about retreating now? How could the Thousand Transformation Army be so kind-hearted to let their enemies flee away scot-free? They naturally wanted to hunt them down.

Kill him.
Qin Wentian gave a command to Qi Yu and the others, pointing at Paragon Golden Cauldron. Since the immortal war reached this stage, he should take the chance to wipe out all future sources of trouble.
After this war, the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect would unify the thirteen prefectures and the Eastern Sage’s hatred for them would definitely soar sky-high. There’s no need to doubt that the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor would definitely take revenge and those loyal to him would join him as well. Hence, it was impossible for them to spare any of these loyal characters.
Qin Wentian stepped out, hunting down those from the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect who were trying to retreat.
Right now, everything was already set. Everyone understood that the war has ended. Not only did the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor lose, he lost in an extremely miserable manner.

Chi…
At this moment, an extremely resplendent pure yang sword attack slashed over, incinerating everything that it passed by. A fearsome collision rang out as a thunderous roar filled the sky.
At this instant, Paragon Sky Roc’s body was struck. Paragon Sky Roc unleashed a terrifying destructive might in response, but he had no way of avoiding the fate of being severed.

Is an emperor going to die today?
The hearts of everyone pounded madly when they saw this. The Pure Yang Sword Emperor actually depended on himself and could overwhelm Paragon Sky Roc?

DIE!
With a roar, boundless light erupted forth from his sword, turning into the fiery pure yang energy as they slammed into Paragon Sky Roc. Paragon Sky Roc screamed, his body was burning, turning into cinders. There’s also a surge of fearsome sword qi ravaging the interior of his body.

I’M NOT WILLING!
Paragon Sky Roc screamed in misery before turning into ashes, vanishing from the world. Boundless astral light burst forth when he died, before dissipating into nothingness, indicating the death of an immortal emperor.
This, was what an immortal was was. No matter how powerful an existence you are, there is always the possibility of falling.
After killing Paragon Sky Roc, the Pure Yang Sword Emperor retreated and sped towards another battlefield. For the battlefield of Bai Wuya and Paragon Tantai, Bai Wuya has already suppressed his opponent. If he had more time, he would be able to gain victory for sure. The moment the Pure Yang Sword Emperor arrived, victory was already without question. Today would be the doomsday for Paragon Tantai.
Paragon Tantai was naturally clear on this point. Hence, the moment the Pure Yang Sword Emperor arrived, he already started to flee, wanting to leave the battlefield. He understood Paragon Sky Roc’s strength. Since the Sword Emperor could kill Sky Roc, he already has a rough estimation of the Sword Emperor’s level of strength. If the Sword Emperor joined hands with Bai Wuya, there was only death for him. Right now, he could only flee.
However, how could Bai Wuya let him flee? Right now, his thinking was the same as everyone else. Now that the war has reached this extent, for key figures, the more he could kill, the better it would be. Being merciful to enemies was equivalent to being cruel to oneself.

Banish!
Bai Wuya barked in a cold voice as an azure eye appeared in the air. The light from this azure eye completely enveloped Paragon Tantai, locking him in place. Paragon Tantai struggled mightily, tyrannical to the extreme, wanting to shatter the bindings. However, he discovered that all his efforts were for naught. He couldn’t exit the trapped space.
The Pure Yang Sword Emperor arrived. When the spectators saw this, all of them sighed. This time, Paragon Tantai would die for sure. Bai Wuya alone was enough to handle him, and now, with the addition of the Pure Yang Sword Emperor who could kill Paragon Sky Roc, the ending was already fated.
Joining forces, the two of them swiftly finished off Paragon Tantai. A terrifying surge of destructive energy gushed into Paragon Tantai’s body, taking his life away in an instant. Another immortal emperor died just like this.
Two powerful immortal emperors had fallen today, killed by their opponents.
Bai Wuya and the Pure Yang Sword Emperor shared a mutual glance before they both flew towards the battlefield where the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor and the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord was at.
As they were travelling there, the Pure Yang Sword Emperor slashed out a sword and Bai Wuya also unleashed a terrifying attack from his eyes. Although the two of them were initial-stage immortal emperors and couldn’t threaten the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor, their attacks would still cause trouble for Eastern Sage. At a fight of this level, a moment of distraction could be deadly especially when one was facing an equally formidable opponent. Everyone was very clear about this point.
At this instant, fearsome fist shadows filled the sky, capable of destroying everything. With a thunderous explosive noise ringing out, the clones of the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord were destroyed one after another. The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor descended from the air. His eyes stared in the direction of Qin Wentian, as a terrifying law energy fluctuation gathered, resembling a powerful storm, preparing to launch towards Qin Wentian.

Breaking the rules?
An intense light radiated from Emperor Yu as a dazzling arrow shot out, causing Eastern Sage to turn ashen but that surge of energy still blasted out in Qin Wentian’s direction.

Chi…
An arrow shot out with blinding speed. Eastern Sage howled in madness, as countless sage fist imprints covered the sky. However, that single arrow penetrated through everything, blasting into his immortal body. Eastern Sage swerved to the side, but he was still struck. Fresh blood blossomed from the wound as he was flung far away from the impact.

FATHER, SAVE ME!
A roar sounded out. One of Eastern Sage’s sons was screaming for help as Bai Wuya’s immortal energy surrounded him.

Bai Wuya, you dare?!
The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor howled in anger.

You brought this upon yourself.
Bai Wuya coldly spoke.
Kill.

As the sound of his voice faded, another son of Eastern Sage was killed directly by Bai Wuya.

Eastern Sage, you are the one who broke the rules first, you can’t blame me for being ruthless.
The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord coldly spoke.
Kill everyone from the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect, show no mercy.

The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor watched all the scenes flashing by. Another one of his sons was begging for help but he had no way to help him. This time, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor felt as though his heart was being cut by knives.
A groan of agony rang out as the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor coughed out fresh blood.

Emperor Yu, why did you interfere in their war?
The Violet Emperor coldly spoke. Although he didn’t mind the Eastern Sage being defeated, Eastern Sage must not die here.

I’ve already reminded everyone earlier not to break the rules. If there’s a next time, I won’t just fire a single arrow.
Emperor Yu calmly replied. The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor glanced at the battlefield below, his side was completely defeated.
Not only that, the sons he brought here were all killed today.

HAHAHA…
Abruptly, the sound of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor’s laughter filled the air. His eyes gleamed with redness as he stared at the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord, before turning to Emperor Yu, Bai Wuya and Qin Wentian. His killing intent towards these four had reached the absolute limit. The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor had never wanted to kill anyone so badly before. However, if he couldn’t kill any of these people. A single Emperor Yu was enough to stop him.
But even so, Emperor Yu wouldn’t be able to kill him. Eastern Sage knew that if Emperor Yu really acted to kill him, the Violet Emperor and the others would definitely act.
Right now, everyone understood that although Emperor Yu appeared under the name of a follower of an ancient emperor, in reality, he favors the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. After all, Qin Wentian was the inheritor of Ancient Emperor Yi, his master of all those years ago.

Everything that happened today, has been remembered by me, Eastern Sage.
The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor’s hair was completely disheveled, appearing like a crazed demon. His ice-cold gaze swept over to everyone, no longer possessing the majestic demeanour of an immortal emperor as he turned and departed. The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord didn’t pursue. Although they could suppress Eastern Sage, it was basically impossible to kill him with the Violet Emperor and the others around.

Farewell.
The Violet Emperor and his other allies also left when they saw that the war has concluded. When they initially came, they naturally hoped for the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect to be victorious. However, the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect was simply too disappointing and lost so badly. However, this had nothing to do with them. It was fine with them as long as Eastern Sage was alive.
The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord and the others also didn’t feel joy at winning the war. Although victory caused them to sigh in relief, none of them could feel joy when they saw the number of corpses lying about. Many immortals had fallen in this war.
Also, the fact that Eastern Sage didn’t die meant that he would definitely come back to haunt them in the future. Eastern Sage was a source of extreme danger.
Qin Wentian frowned as well. Although they were victorious in this war, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor had gone insane. This meant that he would no longer care about rules and as long as there was an opportunity, the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor would definitely kill him and the others of the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. There was nothing a madman wouldn’t dare to do.

We have to re-establish the immortal sect and temporarily not leave the cloud capital. The other prefectures will still go about their businesses as usual, we can temporarily choose to ignore them.
The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord commanded. Since Eastern Sage wasn’t dead, it’s best for them not to take over and govern the thirteen prefectures for now, or they would simply be sending the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor freebies for him to kill.
Since they were the victors in this war, control of the thirteen prefectures was already in the bag.
