A small ant?
It seemed like Lei Jie finally understood.
A sense of regret crashed in his heart....
If he hadn't offended the Demon Emperor's Son and had handed over Ye Chen, could this entire tragedy have been avoided?
Just as that thought surfaced, before he could even dwell on it....
*RUMBLE…!*
*Crash!*
Dust shot into the sky, covering everything within a hundred meters.
A massive black hand slammed down right in the center of the giant city.
In just a breath's time, when the black hand finally faded away,
the entire Lei Clan had vanished from the map.
All that was left was a massive, bottomless crater, silently speaking of the terrifying moment that had just occurred.
.....
Half a day later, the news of the Lei Clan's destruction swept through the entire Three Thousand Great Worlds like a storm scattering fallen leaves!
Everyone who heard about it was shocked and terrified!
Those who knew the details of what had happened felt a deep chill run through their bodies, utterly horrified.
The Infinite Demon Palace… was far too terrifying!
So was it's Heir, Su Ming!
In just under one month, he had erased both the Xuan Yin Dao Sect and the Lei Clan without hesitation!
Only twenty years old, and already exuding the majesty of a true Great Emperor!
…
On the demonic qilin carriage.
"Prince, the Lei Clan has been wiped out. Not a single person escaped."
The voice of the Shadow Guard came respectfully.
"Mm."
Su Ming gave a calm and indifferent response.
To him, the lives of those people were like the lives of ants, completely meaningless.
This operation had been carefully planned by Su Ming.
After dealing with Fang Yuhan, he had spent a few days cultivating in the Yuhua Immortal Sect, and then shifted his attention toward Ye Chen.
And to his surprise,
Ye Chen, who had previously suffered several heavy blows and lost much of his luck, was once again showing signs of recovery.
Su Ming naturally couldn't allow the Child of Luck to grow stronger again.
So, using the abilities of the Immortal Silkworm to investigate, he quickly chose his next target.
The Lei Clan turned out to be the perfect choice to make an example of, and so, that terrifying scene was carved into existence.
"Lei Jie really didn't let me down."
Su Ming's tone was flat. If Lei Jie hadn't betrayed Ye Chen so quickly, he wouldn't have had the excuse to destroy an entire ancient clan.
But then again, if Ye Chen could be betrayed so easily, he wouldn't be worthy of being called the Child of Luck.
"This time, Ye Chen will definitely be feeling the pressure."
Su Ming then turned his gaze toward the system panel.
A recent notification had brought him unexpected joy.
[Congratulations, Host! You erased a clan with a single thought. Your demonic might now shakes the world. Reward: 30,000 Demonic Charm Points.]
[You have obtained a special title: 'Sky Piercing Destruction Aura.']
[Sky Piercing Destruction Aura : Your fearsome reputation now echoes across the universe.]
[With this title, your luck becomes immense, and your infamy spreads everywhere.]
[You can freely hide your presence, making yourself immune to detection or spying. You are unaffected by fate's luck-based pressure or backlash.]
["You now suppress Children of Luck more effectively, an increase of 30%.]
After reading the details, a smile appeared on Su Ming's face.
"Hmm... This is really something."
"Avoiding luck backlash and resisting fate's pressure, those alone are really good…"
"But the ability to hide my presence and avoid all detection? That's actually priceless."
In this ancient world filled with countless powerful beings, many strange techniques existed, some could easily peer into your destiny, steal your fortune, and kill you without a single trace.
Su Ming hadn't met such powerful enemies yet, but that didn't mean he never would.
Now, with this title, he could even remain hidden from such powers, greatly boosting his ability to survive in this dangerous world. Not to mention, he could now suppress his aura and hide his cultivation level as well.
And the immunity to fate's pressure was also extremely useful.
Though the concept of "Luck" might sound mystical, in reality, martial artists often used their aura to suppress others in battles.
Now that he had this title, even though Su Ming was still in the "Myriad Laws Realm," his presence would be deep and unreadable, completely veiled from prying eyes.
His own fortune would now feel like a dark abyss, making people instinctively afraid of him.
Simply by standing there, people would feel pressure, losing their confidence, their minds disturbed.
They'd be filled with awe, unwilling to challenge Su Ming in any way.
And the upper hand against Children of Luck? That was the icing on the cake!
Now, Su Ming had the advantage even against those talented, fated, high-luck individuals.
"Heh, I can't wait to see Ye Chen again."
Inside the carriage, Su Ming's lips curled into a smile, his eyes flashing with a sharp killing intent.
Meanwhile, the story of the Lei Clan's destruction was still spreading.
Countless families and empires were shocked to bottom upon hearing the news.
The Lei Clan was no ordinary clan, they were a famous immortal clan, with just elders in the Pathwalking Realm and massive future potential.
Yet even they were wiped out in a single blow after offending the Infinite Demon Palace.
As people dug deeper into the cause, the truth slowly came to light and it spread faster than ever .
The reason? It was all because of Lei Xingshan's spoiled stupid son!
Lei Jie had apparently teamed up with the Demon Emperor's Son's enemy, Ye Chen, even calling him "big brother" openly and bowing to follow him.
When the Demon Emperor's Son personally arrived and demanded that the Lei Clan handle the matter, but Lei Jie stood his ground and refused like a fool.
In the end, it cost the Lei Clan their lives.
When the truth got out, people were stunned at first. Then they shook their heads and sighed, one unfilial son had truly brought doom to the clan.
That was the Demon Emperor's Son of Infinite Demon Palace!
His father was a Great Emperor, he had ancient backing, and countless experts stood behind him.
In the vast Three Thousand Great Worlds, only a few forces could stand against the Infinite Demon Palace.
The Xuan Yin Dao Sect and the Lei Clan clearly weren't among them, not even close to them.
With the Dao Sect as an earlier example, when the Demon Emperor's Son himself arrived at the Lei Clan, instead of kneeling down and showing respect, they dared to defy him.
And in return, their entire clan was turned to nothing but ash.
Many people couldn't help but sigh:
"The Demon Emperor's Son's might is overwhelming, he's truly not someone you want to mess with!"
