Destroying the Soul

"How about crippling his cultivation, my lord?" Long Bai suggested Ryusuke while maintaining a respectful expression.

"You will regret it! If you cripple me or kill me, my power as the Moon God Emperor will be transferred to one of my children. They will kill you in vengeance!" Yue Wuya shouted out at the top of his lungs.

"Transfer? Vengeance? You don't understand the situation you are in here, Moon God-Emperor…" Ryusuke said while walking towards the Moon God-Emperor.

The Moon God Emperor could see him coming but not move his body. It was like an invisible pressure crushing him from above.

Ryusuke's Rinne-Sharingan flashed dangerously as he extended two of his fingers and touched the Moon God Emperor's forehead.

In the next moment, he pulled his arm a little, and a blue aura of the Moon God Emperor was released from his forehead.

"Do you see this faintish blue aura? This is your soul… I wonder what would be the reaction to this Moon God's inheritance if I destroy it?"

The soul in Ryusuke's hands suddenly emitted tremendous power as it tried to run away from Ryusuke's hands.

"Hoho… So you are there! I knew you wouldn't be occupying the whole soul!" Ryusuke said with a delighted look. He used his other hand to slash the small part of the soul, around the size of a drop from the original soul.

Just as that part of the soul was broken off… The Moon God Emperor started screaming loudly, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH... AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH…."

His scream was so loud that Ryusuke and Long Bai felt like this guy wanted to destroy their ears with his damn scream.

Soon enough, they plugged their ears with a great amount of Divine energy.

Ryusuke let out a breath of relief, "Damn. I didn't think an old man like him can scream so loudly. That was too close for comfort."

Even though Ryusuke and Long Bai saved themselves from his screams. Its sound reached outside the hall. Near the area where Jasmine was fighting multiple experts.

Not exactly fighting but preventing anyone from entering the hall.

After these experts heard the sound of such loud screams, they could tell that it was of Moon God Realm King's scream.

All of them seemingly used their secret arts and attacked Jasmine. With those attacks, they momentarily suppressed her, and out of 3 Moon Gods, 2 Moon Gods entered the hall.

Jasmine had a rather surprising look. From the reaction of these Moon Gods, it seemed that this scream was from the Moon God Emperor's mouth. Just what had happened in the hall?!

She grew inevitably curious about the fight happening in the Hall.

Meanwhile, Yue Wuya was bright silver and was releasing a huge amount of power from his body.

Long Bai grew vigilant as he thought it was in preparation of a massive attack. However, Ryusuke signalled him to not move.

Soon, Long Bai began to feel the change. The Moon God Realm King's Cultivation was dropping. And not one by one, it was dropping exponentially.

4th Stage of Divine Master Realm

2nd Stage of Divine Sovereign Realm

1st Stage of Divine Soul Realm

And it continued to drop until it completely vanished.

Even Ryusuke couldn't feel the Profound Veins of the Moon God Realm King.

The man's face was completely ashen, really as if he had aged a thousand years in a single moment.

"So… You are nothing without this Moon God's Soul? How pathetic!" Ryusuke crushed kept that piece of soul in his hands and stared at it with a sneer.

Ryusuke then looked at the entrance of the hall. He saw two Moon Gods entering from Jasmine's side.

From their looks, Ryusuke guessed that these two were near the same age or a little younger than Yue Wuya.

"Greetings, Moon Gods," Ryusuke said with a cold look on his face while he pushed Yue Wuya's soul back into his body.

"You! What have you done to my brother?!" One of them shouted, sounding enraged while glaring at Ryusuke.

"Hmm… Long Bai." Ryusuke simply called out, and not even a second later, the two Moon Gods who had come charging were punched in their guts with a Dragon King's Fist.

They both laid on the ground while still staring at Ryusuke at the corner of their eyes, gritting hatefully at him.

Ryusuke returned those stares with a cold expression, "I don't understand you all… You attacked me for the sole reason because being the Azure Dragon's inheritor, I was destroying the balance between the Star Realms. Yet… You, who are nothing without the souls of your fucking ancestors!"

Ryusuke said before crushing that damn soul in his very hands at that moment.

"Now that you have come here, I want you to scream. Amaterasu!" He coldly shouted at the two brothers before watching them squirm in painful screams.

"AHHHHHHHHH…. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH…." Both these Moon Gods didn't understand why, but they were experiencing extreme pain.

When they tried to use their Divine Energy to disperse this strange fire, it would flare up, even more, injuring them even more!

"Can you see it, Yue Wuya?! This is nothing compared to what you will see now!" The horror in Yue Wuya's eyes seemed to double up as he looked into Ryusuke's eyes.

It was so great that Ryusuke could feel his body trembling!

Ryusuke pulled out a sword from the Kamui dimension and held it tightly in his hands. He started moving, slowly slicing Yue Wuya's legs, his arms…

Ryusuke did it as slowly as he could. He wished to make Yue Wuya experience as much pain as possible.

It had reached to the level that Yue Wuya couldn't express his pain through screams. Tears formed in his eyes as he started to cry a river in the hall.

"Hoh? Are you crying? I would be affected a little if I was unaware of what you people do. So…You aren't getting even a bit of mercy from me!"

"Ahhh… Waaahhhh…. Stoop!" Yue Wuya pleaded out while screaming in pain.

Ryusuke though continued slicing off his hands and legs with that same cold expression.

After 15 or so minutes, Ryusuke was finished slicing off off his hands and legs. He looked at the horrified expression on Yue Wuya, "Now… Spend the rest of your life in utter misery and despair. With the loss of your Cultivation, I doubt you will experience suffering for a long time. You must be about to die any time soon."

As if declaring his fate, Ryusuke turns to Yue Wuya's brothers. They had stopped screaming from the Amaterasu. Seeing that there were no longer screaming out of pain, Ryusuke dispersed his Amaterasu.

Now, the two Moon Gods were lying there, gritting with hateful eyes, shouting at Ryusuke, "You will regret it! You will regret destroying the soul of our ancestor!"
