Villain : After Slacking Off, The Protagonist Collapse-Chapter 228

Chapter 228

“I hope that Great Accomplishment Physique can kill him,” Jin Yuan said in a deep voice. Despite how much the Emperor’s Son was being suppressed, none of them dared to underestimate him. They simply didn’t have the right to.

Even if he couldn’t beat the Great Accomplishment Physique, he could still easily sweep them aside. All the forces that participated in the destruction of the True Dragon Clan were on edge, terrified that the Emperor’s Son might survive.

If that happened, he would become a lingering threat—a sword hanging over their heads, one that could fall at any moment.

“From what we’re seeing, the Emperor’s Son is likely to lose, but whether he dies is another question,” the Great Qin Emperor said grimly. “With the protection of an Emperor Weapon, even if he’s driven to the brink, he could still awaken the Emperor’s Will and find a way to escape.”

In terms of raw power, the Great Accomplishment Physique clearly had the upper hand. But when it came to killing the Emperor’s Son, the Great Qin Emperor wasn’t entirely confident. The gap between the two wasn’t as wide as one might think.

“What are you all so worried about?” The Pure Yang Holy Master seemed far more relaxed than the others. “Even if the Emperor’s Son escapes, he’s not going to come after us first.”

Unlike the others, the Pure Yang Holy Master wasn’t anxious. In fact, he was quite casual about the situation. Glancing at Huang Tian from the Undying Phoenix Clan, he continued, “He’ll go after the Immortal Phoenix Clan first.”

The others followed his gaze, and Huang Tian’s expression darkened. Indeed, he couldn’t afford to relax. If the Emperor’s Son managed to escape, his first target for revenge would undoubtedly be the Undying Phoenix Clan.

After all, they had been the first to attack and had been the most enthusiastic about supporting the Great Accomplishment Physique. It was Huang Tian’s involvement that had encouraged the other forces to join the fray.

While all the participating forces were guilty of contributing to the True Dragon Clan’s downfall, the Undying Phoenix Clan bore the greatest responsibility. The thought of the Emperor’s Son’s vengeance sent a chill through Huang Tian’s heart. He immediately decided to take action.

Without hesitation, a massive phoenix surged forward, its colossal form covering the sky as it charged toward the Emperor’s Son.

Boom!

Before the phoenix could get close, it was sent flying back by the shockwaves from the battle between Jiang Chen and the Emperor’s Son. Seeing this, everyone fell silent. Even an Emperor Weapon couldn’t break into this fight?

“One weapon isn’t enough. Two aren’t enough. But ten or more Emperor Weapons should be enough!” Huang Tian said in a low voice. “I’m sure none of you want the Emperor’s Son to survive and seek revenge, right? If you want to kill him, now is the perfect time.”

Having already boarded the ship of destruction, the forces had no choice but to consider the consequences. If the Emperor’s Son survived, the aftermath would be disastrous. They all knew this. To prevent this looming threat, they had no choice but to act.

Soon, the forces began to move, and more than a dozen Emperor Weapons appeared in the sky. The overwhelming pressure spread across the heavens.

Under this pressure, the Emperor’s Son struggled to take even a step.

Boom!

Jiang Chen threw another punch, and the Emperor’s Son’s body exploded, his blood raining down from the sky.

But soon, the Emperor’s Son experienced rebirth from a drop of blood, transforming into a completely new version of himself.

“Damn ants!” He gritted his teeth in hatred as he saw the various forces joining the battle. These ants were becoming far too annoying.

“Heaven wills your destruction, and you have no choice but to perish!” Jiang Chen sneered coldly.

The Emperor’s Son was already completely cornered, with no hope of survival in sight. Jiang Chen had already been able to suppress him, and now, with the protection of more than ten Emperor Weapons, the Emperor’s Son had even less chance of escaping death.

“Die!” Jiang Chen shouted, as terrifying sword light shot into the sky, like a massive river carrying overwhelming power, slashing forward. The sword energy split the heavens, and the descending light obliterated everything in its path!

Under the annihilating sword energy, the Emperor’s Son’s body repeatedly collapsed and reformed, while much of his previously vibrant soul was slashed away, leaving him weak and exhausted. His eyes widened in despair and unwillingness as he looked at the situation before him.

“No!” he cried out in despair.

He was destined to be unmatched, destined to tread the supreme Dao—how could he fall here? He had yet to avenge his fallen clansmen. His heart was filled with overwhelming reluctance and despair, but the suppressive force was too strong, leaving him unable to resist.

Boom!

Suddenly, the once dim giant axe burst into brilliant light, soaring into the sky. Its terrifying sharpness cleaved through everything, shattering the Dao and slicing through several Emperor Weapons. In that moment, the giant axe fully awakened, and a supreme will began to stir!

However, this will was different from the typical Emperor’s Will—it was far more terrifying. It wasn’t just the will of the Emperor Weapon itself; it was as if the original owner of the axe had returned, fully controlling it and activating all of the axe’s Dao laws!

“True Dragon Emperor!” Jiang Chen’s expression darkened slightly.

He had known the True Dragon Emperor was still alive, but he hadn’t expected him to intervene. In the original timeline, the True Dragon Emperor had rarely involved himself in the Emperor’s Son’s affairs.

Even after reemerging, the True Dragon Emperor treated his son as little more than a bug, barely sparing him a glance. This made Jiang Chen surprised—hadn’t the emotionless True Dragon Emperor abandoned all feelings?

He hadn’t thought the True Dragon Emperor would help, even if his son were on the brink of death. But it seemed a sliver of emotion still remained.

Facing his son’s life-and-death crisis, the True Dragon Emperor had not completely turned away.

“Then again, the True Dragon Emperor perished in front of the Emperor’s Son. Perhaps it’s because the Emperor’s Son, after his rebirth, had been invincible with no opponents, never facing any real danger, so there was no need for the True Dragon Emperor to intervene,” Jiang Chen thought as his eyes flickered with realization.

“Father!” the Emperor’s Son cried out in ecstasy as he sensed the change in the axe. He could feel it—this was his father’s presence. His father was still alive!

The moment this declaration was made, it was as though a stone had shattered the heavens. All the forces involved in the destruction of the True Dragon Clan were struck with horror, their bodies trembling. The True Dragon Emperor was still alive?

The mere thought of this terrifying possibility sent shivers down their spines, even the previously carefree Pure Yang Holy Master was filled with dread.

If it was true, they would be facing total annihilation. This wasn’t a joke. An Emperor could sweep aside everyone present, and not even the protection of ten or more Emperor Weapons could save them from disaster.

Whoosh!

The giant axe seemed to have a mind of its own, as all the Dao laws within it were fully activated. An overwhelming force surged forward, sweeping toward Jiang Chen with terrifying momentum.

The powerful edge of the axe cleaved the heavens, as if it were the legendary Pangu Axe, splitting the world apart.

An Emperor Weapon was the life-bound weapon of an emperor, and only in their hands could the full potential of an Emperor Weapon be unleashed.

All other Emperor Weapons, without an owner, were merely dormant. Only by fully awakening an Emperor’s Will could the true power of the weapon be accessed.

Now, under the control of the True Dragon Emperor, the Heaven-Splitting Axe has been fully activated.

Jiang Chen’s expression darkened further. As before, he launched a powerful punch.

Boom!

The surrounding space exploded, but unlike before, this time, Jiang Chen’s skin was torn, and golden blood trickled out, filling the air with an indestructible aura.

“Having a true master does make a difference!” Jiang Chen remarked with a low growl. “But it still won’t make much of a difference!”

He roared, and like a chaotic demon god, he unleashed his fury, his fists striking out violently. The giant axe was sent flying once more, but this time, it trembled uncontrollably, and the Dao patterns on its surface began to dim.

After knocking the axe away, Jiang Chen reached out a hand, intent on ending the Emperor’s Son once and for all.

Suddenly, a giant hand emerged from the void, moving faster than Jiang Chen, grabbing the Emperor’s Son and pulling him away. A supreme aura filled the air, causing the heavens and the myriad Dao to tremble.

This was the aura of the True Dragon Emperor.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen’s eyes gleamed as he swiftly unleashed the Reincarnation Tribulation.

“Reincarnation Tribulation!”

In an instant, the myriad Daos converged, and the Emperor’s Son was pulled into the Reincarnation Tribulation.
