Chapter 173: The Life-Slaughter Demon Lord (13)
Outside the main hall of the Xiao Imperial Palace, masked experts wearing ghost-face masks slaughtered wantonly throughout the palace grounds.
At the head of the group stood a tall figure in a dark purple cloak—Su Chen. Leading the members of the Life-Slaughter Hall, he unleashed a bloody purge on the entire Xiao Family. He had no interest in personally acting against the insignificant soldiers of the Xiao Imperial Clan. His gaze was fixed on a palace ahead. That was his true target.
Boom!
A fierce, murderous aura erupted. A black halberd swept forward with a lethal strike.
"An ant trying to shake a tree—how ridiculous."
Su Chen chuckled lightly. His figure flickered. Under Xiao Xuance's horrified gaze, one hand directly seized his face. Purple-black airflow rose around Su Chen like flames, making him resemble a demon sovereign descending upon the mortal world.
Xiao Yueli, who had not gone far, witnessed the scene and cried out in grief, "Big Brother!"
Xiao Jin pulled his struggling sister back, suppressing his own sorrow as he said, "Little Sister, don't go back! You are no match for him. We must take Father and leave. We cannot let Big Brother die in vain!"
Xiao Yueli's cry of alarm drew Su Chen's attention.
