Jiu Shen planned to torture Lao Gou thoroughly, but when he recalled that old blank look earlier, he became furious and ended up punching Lao Gou to death.
He glanced at the headless corpse covered in blood and placed it inside his outer space earrings. “I'll let Theia handle what's left of you.” She muttered while standing.
He looked around and saw that the black tower was still standing upright. He kept the tower inside his space earrings and moved towards the fallen guandao. It was a Celestial ranked weapon, but only a few among his subordinates used spears. “I'll give this to that boy Can Ye and let him handle it. This would be a nice thing to display in the treasury of the sword tower.”
“Now, how to fix everything?” Jiu Shen stared at the shattered ruins all over his body. This destroyed land was all that was left of the bustling capital of the Central Region.
Jiu Shen thought that he was heartless and indifferent about the lives of others, but a wave of guilt overwhelmed him when he saw millions of corpses scattered throughout the Central Region.
They were killed because of him.
Jiu Shen closed his eyes and in a solemn voice, he said. “I'm sorry..”.
No one answered it.
He slowly floated in the air and announced with a loud resounding voice. “To honor those who died, I will make this land a utopia! A place free from torture and war! I rename this region, Heavenly Sword Region!”
The crowd throughout (The Middle Region is now called the Heavenly Sword Region) kowtowed when they heard Jiu Shen's words. His voice was full of charm so no one let out any words of complaint.
“We welcome Heavenly Emperor!”
“We welcome Heavenly Emperor!”
The new Heavenly Emperor was born …

In the Desert Region, the battle between the Heavenly Paragon Tower and the allied forces of the Heavenly Sword Tower was still not over.
The Celestial Paragon Tower had fewer soldiers left and they were slowly pushed back.
The Telu Sect Master and Vice Sect Master Valir did their best to fight against the top experts of the opposing forces, but one person disrupted the rhythm of the battle.
It was a beautiful young woman with blonde hair that reached her shoulders. He had a pair of sea-blue eyes that were emitting waves of frightening killing intent. Each of his sword attacks took the lives of countless warriors. She was like the reincarnation of a war goddess!
“Is he the guy that dad wants us to catch?” Telu asked with clenched teeth.
Valir nodded his head with a helpless smile. “True. Sky Emperor Lao Gou wants us to capture him alive and not hurt him in any way.”
Hearing that, Telu almost cursed her father but held back. “This young lady is extremely vicious and her every attack is aimed at our vital point. If we hold back our strength, we might die in his hands. Old man, I think we should ignore father's orders and kill this young miss! “
Valir was stunned after hearing the Sect Master's words. It seemed like he finally realized the absurdity of his father's orders. “Tuan Sect, you mean ..”
Telu looked dark as she shook her head. “We can't beat them ..”
Valir nodded his head and grabbed Telu's shoulder with one hand. “Master Sect, bring half of the troops and leave this place. I will restrain them and create an opportunity for you to escape!”
Valir shook his head and pushed him away with a cold look. “Telu, we don't have time to laze around, so shut up and leave this place!”
Telu's body trembled as she looked at the old man's stern face. He gritted his teeth and looked at Valir one last time before he turned around and left.
Seeing his fleeing figure, Valir smiled in relief.
However, a shadow suddenly appeared behind Telu and quickly beheaded him.
A voluptuous beautiful woman wearing dark blood-stained armor was staring coldly at the headless corpse of Telu.
“Tuan Sect !!” Valir's face fell as he watched Telu's sudden death.
“Dead, ******!” He raised his weapon and struck the cold-faced woman.
Theia calmly fended off the old man's crazy attack. He violently swung his weapon, leaving many gaps in his position.
With a wave of her sword, Theia performed a beautiful sword move like a goddess dancing in a field of flowers.
Puchis!
Valir dropped his weapon and held his neck blankly. He lowered his gaze and opened his palm.
It's covered in blood.
With weak steps, he walked towards Telu's corpse. The decapitated man's head lay beside his corpse.
Theia watched the scene with a cold gaze and did not stop the old man.
Valir opened his mouth, but he could only let out a hoarse voice.
The wound on his neck was deep and it affected his speech.
He knelt down and grabbed Telu's head into his arm.
‘My son..’.
Since Heavenly Emperor Lao Gou rarely showed himself, Valir was the one who raised Telu when he was born.
He treated the son of the Heavenly Emperor like his own son …
Slowly, Valir's eyes lost their radiance. He died holding Telu's head…
Theia sighed and turned around. The battle had not ended despite the deaths of the leaders. The Heavenly Paragon Tower warriors showed no signs of giving up even after seeing the death of their Sect Master and Vice Sect Master. In fact, their deaths only served as the fuel that strengthened the fighting desires of these people.
