Misunderstanding

"Incredible."

In the skies, sitting on top of a massive and splendid-looking bird was Chu Peng's figure as his gaze landed on the mass destruction done to his hometown.

"I originally wanted to find his residual energy and thereafter, use a secret technique to follow his trail... Who'd have thought that the only residual energy here is that of the Heavenly Lightning Tribulation...!"

Descending toward the ruined city, more specifically, to the center, where his father's home was, Chu Peng sighed lightly.

"It's good now that you need not suffer any longer. I didn't tell you but, you deserve a normal woman, not my mother... Don't worry, I'll take care of her from now till eternity."

Chu Peng's eyes flashed with madness and desire as he couldn't hide the small smile that crept onto his face... No, this smile widened and expanded until he couldn't hold back any longer!

Hehe... Hahahahaha!

"Excuse me." A voice suddenly interrupted his laughter. It was deep and cold containing endless concealed rage.

"You, your clothing, your aura, and to top it off, that freaky laughter, you're a Demonic cultivator aren't you? And the cause of this massacre!"

Thrum!

A suppressed aura exploded outwards. The manly voice resounded in the surroundings, causing Chu Peng to glance behind for a moment.

Before even questioning further, a long staff was already inching closer and closer toward Chu Peng's face.

The owner was, in fact, the city lord of the Limitless City. After receiving news of the destruction of a city from the city leaders in this 5,000-mile domain, the city lord didn't intend to play around and personally came.

After all, to destroy a city led by a Martial Lord, the fellow's strength was at least, at the peak of a Martial Lord, or even a Martial King.

To prevent any more slaughter, he directly followed the clan leaders and city lords of this domain from the Limitless City's teleportation circle, back to this place.

By now, the Limitless Sky Sect's higher-ups would have been alerted by the destruction of a city too.

One mustn't underestimate the meaning behind this action. After all, this can be the prerequisite to a world war between two Supreme Sects.

The Heavenly Demon Sect is home to a bunch of demonic cultivators, and the Limitless Sky Sect is arguably the strongest in the world.

A fight between these two would be earth-shaking and sky-shattering!

Swoosh!

The staff penetrated through the winds, missing its mark by a hair as Chu Peng didn't bother glancing at his opponent any longer.

"Why are you attacking me?" Chu Peng casually asked. This was Limitless Sky Continent, so he didn't simply kill this rude person.

A Demonic Cultivator murdering residents of Limitless Sky Continent was tantamount to single-handedly starting a war.

Yes, he didn't mind starting a war, but this was after killing the Young Holy Child of the Limitless Sky Sect.

"Why am I doing this? You still have the gall to play innocent even after slaughtering wantonly and then laughing over it! Demon! True Demon!"

Xiu! Swoosh! Fwoosh!

The staff parted the winds again and again. Yet, even though he was constantly barraged by attacks, Chu Peng didn't even glance.

Puff! Boom!

Suddenly, after a small explosion, droplets of what seemed to be raindrops crimson in color splattered on the ground close by.

"Challenging a Martial Emperor is simply courting death...

A righteous member of this stupid place, a brat who doesn't know the immensity of the heavens and earth!" Chu Peng scoffed at the thought of a weakling like a city lord challenging him, a Martial Emperor.

Sigh!

"It seems things are bound to become lively." Chu Peng muttered. Though the city lord couldn't express his full power, seeing as this fellow had the strength of at least a Martial King, there was only one conclusion.

He, Chu Peng was now viewed as the destroyer of this city. And even though he didn't do any of such, with his identity as a Demonic Cultivator, there truly wasn't anything he could say. In the first place, what was he doing in the Limitless Sky Continent?

"With their means, the upper echelon would have already received the news from the city lord and most probably would be appearing here soon. Even if I rush out of this continent, I wouldn't reach far before my traces would be traced and before I could leave, I'll be surrounded by at least, a group of Mortal Sage experts."

When thinking this, he snickered coldly. So what! Even if it was Mortal Sage or Mortal Transcendents, he didn't have anything to fear. Inside this world, he was invulnerable, was he not? Who was his mother? She was the Demon Empress of this world...

'And I'm destined to become the Demon Emperor. Looking down on this world with my mother by my side...' Thinking this, Chu Peng's face flashed with a crazy light. He wasn't going to leave. Let them come, he'll slaughter any Limitless Sky Sect member in his presence.

Oh!

Feeling the prying eyes of nearby individuals, a wide grin appeared on Chu Peng's face. Seeing as he was already about to become the number one enemy in the Limitless Sky Continent, he may as well do something deserving of it.

With a thought, Chu Peng's body flickered. Immediately after, he completely disappeared from his location but, one could still see countless afterimages. These afterimages showcased how he casually turned around and strode step by step toward the skies in a certain direction.

It was as if he was walking on steps as he made his way to the skies. Of course, he had long reached his designated location. In the skies, three figures stood, watching Chu Peng's figure. Or at least, what he allowed them to see since, in an instant, Chu Peng had appeared behind an old man.

He had a hunched back and a long goatee. He lacked any hair on his head as he stared with a dark expression at the location of Chu Peng who had just killed the city lord without even placing him in his eyes. Killing without even glancing at the city lord.

The shock that these figures felt was tremendous. So much so that they were rooted to the spot, unable to react as Chu Peng slowly made his way toward them. As Chu Peng's figure could be seen walking toward them, he had already appeared behind the old man, resting his right hand on the old man's shoulder.

Several miles crossed in a fraction of a second..! He, a genius, Chu Peng was in the Martial Emperor realm but, his strength was much higher than his realm proclaimed...

Standing behind the old man, Chu Peng gently waved his hand and the result ended in the complete detachment of a head from the neck.

Before anyone could react, Chu Peng waved his hand. In the skies, a large palm descended glowing in reddish-golden light and crashing down onto the bodies of all present. Before any of the Martial Lords could react, their bodies exploded.

There wasn't any suspense.

The pal didn't stop on these bodies. Who were Martial Lords? In the face of a Martial Emperor, a being two whole realms higher, added by the fact that it was an absolute genius in the Martial Emperor realm, a few Martial Lords weren't worthy to be called ants.

Unbothered by them, the palm descended to earth. The reddish-golden palm seemed akin to the judgment o the godly being who created the world. The mortals who were unlucky enough to reside in the city below realized that the sun had seemingly disappeared and an even brighter more lustrous sun appeared.

BOOM!

The hand of God descended..! The last thing these beings saw as the city spanning tens of miles was instantly shattered. The ground sunk in and a massive abyssal crater took form. How deep exactly was not known, only that it seem to lead to hell...

There weren't any beings above. Chu Peng had long disappeared, traveling a distance that made Athena and Blade use a special flying treasure and still take a few hours to reach, reaching the next city in less than a minute.

From above, the winds churned and the skies darkened. One can see in the skies above, a tornado forming as the tornado changed shape and formed into a massive palm that descended. This palm released a lustrous reddish-golden light that blinded even the light of the green star in the skies.

The beings below, from Martial Great Grandmaster to normal mortals, were unable to react as the hundreds of thousands or even millions of beings were trampled on in an instant. Their city was reduced to rumbles even before the palm landed as a loud explosion then took place.

The shockwave traveled across hundreds of miles as even the last remaining city felt it. The result was similar to the first as a massive abyss that lead the way to hell remained. Similarly to the first time, Chu Peng disappeared, already reappearing in the skies above the next city.

BOOM!

Just like that, the remaining three cities were no more. A whole region spanning 5,000 miles had faced utter extermination in less than a week.
