Yu Lian narrowed her eyes when she discovered that her last two attacks had only killed a dozen people. His attacks were easily avoided by the warriors who had now kept their distance from each other.
Yu Lian became furious. He raised his hand into the air and turned the Fire Dragon Whip rapidly. The whip rope slowly reduced its length to twenty meters only.
The warriors who were about to attack Podium fell silent at the sight of the girl who attacked them now just twirled the whip that was enveloped in flames
A few moments later on top of the whip rope the fire formed a Disc of Fire that rotated rapidly. Not just one but three discs with a diameter of not less than ten meters.
Yu Lian moved her hand forward three times and down three times. Instantly those three huge discs of fire moved very quickly towards them.
The opposing warriors also prepared with the attack of the disc. They scatter to dodge the fire discs But one fire disc is hunting the direction in which they jump, the second disc attack kills those who dodge the second time too late.
Their bodies were cut in half with charred flesh burning. Those who managed to dodge the second disc, still had to fight to avoid the attack of the third disc.
The third giant flame disc attacked those who were leaping away from the second giant flame disc. Only a few people escaped the third disc attack so the number of casualties was increasing.
The giant flame disc Yu Lian continued to hunt those who tried to attack onto the Podium. Those who managed to reach the Podium had to face off against the Emperor's protective ranks led by Yu Ma.
The fight was mounting, the screams of death resounded in turn. Yu Lian who was still floating in the air continued to control her giant flame discs to slaughter the warriors who were constantly trying to break through the defenses on the podium.
They were so excited that even though life was at stake, it was because they were promised a great reward, for who had managed to kill the recently crowned Emperor Wu.
The number of attackers is now only half left. Yu Lian's giant fire disc, the biggest cause of the attackers' deaths. Perhaps ten twenty minutes more they would all be able to be slaughtered by that gigantic Disc of fire.

Lu Yan looked angry to see the swordsman he was carrying now only half the money still survives. Wanting him to stop the massacre immediately, Yao Chan would naturally not let go.
Lu Yan moved very quickly to attack Yao Chan. He had to immediately defeat this young man as soon as possible in order to stop the massacre carried out by Yu Lian.
Yao Chan did not dodge Lu Yan's attack and let the punch hit his body. That extremely powerful punch of Lu Yan struck Yao Chan's body in a landslide.
Lu Yan's eyes widened, his smile disappearing as he realized Yao Chan was unmoved from his original place. That high-powered Level Five Mountain Destruction Tread, unable to knock down Yao Chan.
Very quickly Yao Chan clasped Lu Yan's hand as he was about to move backwards. Lu Yan revolted, yet Yao Chan's grip seemed to be united with his hand.
Such a strong cold started to possess Lu Yan's body. Slowly Lu Yan's burning charcoal-like skin regained its original shape.
Lu Yan became panicked, when he saw that his hands had started to freeze and continued to rise towards his arms towards his right shoulder. Lu Yan continued to struggle trying to let go of his right hand. His left hand that was still free, he used to hit Yao Chan on the head.
Hoping for Yao Chan to release his right hand, Lu Yan's left hand was now within Yao Chan's right hand. And started to be frozen by Yao Chan with his Ice Dragon stance.
Feeling like there's no chance. Lu Yan kicked Yao Chan in the chest with both feet. He moved his legs so hard that he pushed his body backwards.
Lu Yan's body was slammed backwards with both hands broken. Lu Yan let out a loud scream then turned his body trying to escape.
Yao Chan did not let it go. Yao Chan floated quickly after Lu Yan, a tread attack he unleashed forcefully onto Lu Yan's back.
Lu Yan shrieked loudly, that grandfather nicknamed Demon of Changyan Mountain, floated down with his heart frozen from the cold air of Yao Chan.
"Sister!!!"
One of the two Cangyan Mountain Demons who were fighting with Guo Jin, screamed for the brother who was lying lifeless and his hands had been severed.
Because his concentration was split as he fought Yao Chan, a quick slash of the Eagle Sword Guo Jin could not be avoided completely. His neck was scratched quite deeply.
"Coward! cheat!, is this the behavior of the Wu imperial warriors?"
That Mountain Demon Changyan cursed at Guo Jin with scathing words. Guo Jin simply smiled, he replied with a sword stab. The fight again took place between the two old figures of the other imperial world.
But because he had sustained a wound on his neck, that Demon Mountain Changyan, was desperate even his body was injured quite badly. Feeling that he had no chance to win, he also committed an unexpected action by Guo Jin.
Guo Jin's puncture attack was deliberately not avoided by the Changyan Mountain Devil, Guo Jin's Sword pierced through his chest to his back. But Guo Jin choked, when he realized his stomach was pierced by his opponent's sword.
Demon Mountain Changyan fell down with Guo Jin's sword still stuck in his body. While Guo Jin was still standing upright and pulled his opponent's sword from his stomach. Guo Jin's body slowly lost its balance.
"Grandfather!"
Yao Chan who saw that, immediately darted very quickly to catch Guo Jin's body which slowly started darkening his vision. Guo Jin smiled faintly as Yao Chan arrived and grabbed onto his body, a happy smile that made his chest warm up before finally his gaze darkened.
The battle in the Square instantly stopped as the body of Demon Mountain Changyan fell in their midst in a lifeless state with a sword stuck in his chest.
Realizing this, the warriors who initially felt enthusiastic, now became daunted when the figure they relied on, both of them were lying lifeless.
"Retreat! save yourself." each of you."
A loud shout made the atmosphere become rowdy. A moment later they ran around and jumped to get out of the Square.
They wished they could save themselves seeing the strongest among them had been defeated.
Nearly a thousand people ran away from the Palace Square which was now filled with thousands of corpses that were mostly cut off, the fishy smell of blood and the smell of burnt flesh filled the air.
After not a single look of the attacking warriors, Xie Jie fell silent, her heart churning violently upon seeing Guo Jin drooping in Yao Chan's lap.
Yao Chan who was currently exerting power in the dragon soul pearl had managed to seal Guo Jin's wound and stop his bleeding. Guo Jin's life was saved and he was awakened by Yao Chan with the profound energy coming from the Dragon Soul Pearl.
Yao Chan whispered something to Guo Jin, as he looked at Xie Jia's grandmother who was walking limply at them.
"Grandfather.why did you die so soon"
Yao Chan pretended to be crying, as Xie Jie sat down beside Guo Jin.
"Jin Gege.why.why did you leave after I forgave everything.why did you leave.hiks..when I hiks..want to be with you.hikks."
Xie Jia could not help but grieve, in front of Yu Ma, Lin Yung and Yu Lian who had arrived to see Guo Jin. Just then Xie Jia could see how Guo Jin killed his opponent, and Xie Jia choked as a sword tip pierced through Guo Jin's back waist.
"Is that what you said Jia'er? I want to be with you until the end of our lives."
Guo Jin's voice was like lightning in broad daylight in Xie Jie's ears which now had her wrinkled face flushed red. Seeing that Yao Chan who had been holding back his amusement from earlier immediately laughed out loud.
"That insolent rascal.you're pranking grandma again!!!"
Yao Chan laughed as he grimaced with pain as his ears were twisted by Xie Jia loudly.
The sound of laughter rang out in the air as if trying to expel the rancid scent of blood and the smell of burning flesh from the corpses lying down filled the Palace Square.
