Chapter 1353: Dark Emperor Overlooking the World (Part 2)

With every step, he tread upon the domains of the divine.

With every step, he shook the entire Celestial Realm.

Behind him, a mighty army, vast and imposing.

The Angel’s Wing spread behind him, holy and majestic.

That was the stride of a king, unstoppable.

“I am the Dark Emperor, Zhang Beixing!”

His voice echoed through the nine heavens.

“Today, I will let you self-proclaimed righteous fools taste defeat!”

With those words, he suddenly extended his right hand.

His five fingers like hooks, reaching straight for the Celestial Emperor’s throat.

The power of the Soul Devourer burst forth instantly.

The heavens crumbled, the sun and moon lost their light.

The entire Celestial Realm trembled and wailed under the impact of this force.

“This… how is this possible…”

The Celestial Emperor’s face changed drastically, retreating repeatedly.

He never imagined, even in his dreams, that a mere Vampire would possess such earth-shattering abilities.

“Zhang Beixing, you demon, do not be arrogant!”

An Archangel shouted sternly, flying forward.

The Holy Sword in his hand swung down in mid-air.

However, before the sharp Sword Qi could touch Zhang Beixing.

Thud!

The blade pierced flesh, blood splattered.

In an instant, the high and mighty Angel fell dead in the sand.

As silent as it was.

“Audacious lunatic, do not harm my Celestial Realm’s people!”

Another furious roar sounded as several Celestial Soldiers and Generals clad in silver armor swarmed in.

Each displayed their Divine Skills, surrounding Zhang Beixing.

However, faced with the overwhelming enemy forces.

The dark-haired man merely smirked disdainfully.

He stood with arms folded, an aura of murder around him.

The Angel’s Wing lightly fluttered, formidable and imposing.

In the next moment, an earth-shattering massacre descended once more.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Countless beams of golden light shot out from Zhang Beixing’s fingertips.

Wherever they passed, they leveled all to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the Angel army was utterly annihilated.

Turning into specks of stardust, dissipating in the sky.

“What… what kind of power is this…?”

Someone trembled, their face ashen.

“The legendary Angel’s Wing, how terrifying it is…”

“Can we… can we still fight?”

Their morale instantly collapsed, everyone was terrified and apprehensive.

They finally understood, the man before them was not one mere mortals could contend with.

“I told you, you’re not even worthy of being my opponents.”

Zhang Beixing spoke indifferently, his tone calm.

As if the battle just now was merely a game.

“Celestial Emperor, now it’s your turn.”

He lifted his gaze, staring directly at the lofty deity.

His sharp gaze like a blade, chilling to the bone.

“No… this cannot be…”

The Celestial Emperor collapsed to the ground, shaking his head repeatedly.

In a fleeting moment, the entire Celestial Realm had crumbled.

How terrifying was this Vampire?

“Submit, or die.”

Zhang Beixing coldly uttered four words, resounding with finality.

“Make your choice.”

As his words fell, silence reigned.

No one dared to resist, no one dared to speak.

The Celestial Emperor raised his head tremblingly, eyes filled with despair.

He knew, this time, he was utterly defeated.

Defeated by this man from the Mortal Realm.

Defeated by the tide of the era.

“I… I concede…”

Eternal majesty, thus crumbled.

A few words, speaking endless desolation.

“The Celestial Realm… willing to serve the Dark Empire with utmost devotion…”

The humiliating oath echoed above the clouds.

Zhang Beixing’s lips slightly curled, contented and proud.

Another opponent lay prostrate at his feet.

Darkness would eventually swallow the light.

He turned to look at Alina and Richard behind him, his gaze soft.

“Let’s go, the world is decided.”

“It is time to go home…”

Within the Imperial City, countless citizens lined the roads cheering.

Welcoming their sovereign, returning in triumph.

The Dark Empire had unified the world.

No more adversaries, who could rival them?

And the man returning victorious, stood with hands behind his back.

Lofty and aloof, looking down upon all beings.

“Beixing, now the entire world is yours.”

Alina softly spoke, her eyes glimmering.

Her words were filled with pride and joy.

“The Master’s great deeds are complete, our loyalty unwavering.”

Richard shouted again, overwhelmed with excitement.

To follow such a peerless hero, there is no regret in this life.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the ultimate mission of this era.]

[You are now the true ‘Sovereign King’.]

The voice of the Persuasion System rang once more.

It carried endless respect and genuine admiration.

Zhang Beixing glanced around, a smile tugging at his lips.

Indeed, this world has finally bowed at his feet.

And all this glory, how could anyone else replace it?

From now on, he would ensure that this land eternally extols his great deeds.

Let the name ‘Zhang Beixing’ become an immortal legend.

“Everyone, thank you for accompanying me along the way.”

The black-haired man stood, cupping his hands in respect, full of dignified presence.

“I hope you’ll guide me on the road ahead.”

With that, he strode towards the high throne.

Each step exuded an unmatched dominance.

Once seated, his every gesture spoke of a renewed Myriad Manifestations.

The Dark Emperor, with his own strength, is inaugurating a new era.

Who can stop him? Who dares to challenge?

In the vast heavens and earth, only I reign supreme!

This is the immortal legend belonging to Zhang Beixing.

A king destined to make the whole world tremble in submission!

Step by step, he ascended to the summit, never looking back.

Until his fame spread across the realm, immortal through the ages.

In the quiet depths of night, within the Imperial Study of the palace.

Zhang Beixing was lost in thought, his brows slightly furrowed.

The recent days of relentless conquest seemed not to weary him.

Instead, a sense of transcendence enveloped his mind.

The past felt like mist that had merged into the river of history.

Currently, he is the true ruler of this era.

The creator of a new epoch, destined to make the world tremble.

“System, now that the world is settled, what do you think I should do next?”

Zhang Beixing communicated secretly, his tone calm yet laced with a touch of amusement.

No longer the unsophisticated youth he once was, now the awe-inspiring Dark Emperor.

[Master, in my opinion, the top priority is to consolidate power and stabilize the government.]

[After all, although you have crushed the forces of the Holy See and the Demon Race, remnants remain, likely to cause some disturbances.]

[And those tribes that have pledged allegiance also need constant vigilance.]

The voice of the Persuasion System echoed again in his mind.

Though respectful in tone, the concern within was unmistakably clear.

“No worries, mere ants cannot shake my empire and governance.”

Zhang Beixing snorted coldly, standing with hands behind his back.

His entire being emitted an aura that sent chills down the spine.

“I have my plans, no need to concern yourself with this.”

With that, he waved his sleeves, summoning two trusted aides.

“Alina, Richard, come over.”

At his words, the red-haired woman and blond man stepped forward respectfully.

“What orders does Master have?”

They asked in unison, their eyes filled with loyalty and reverence.

“I want you to act separately, meticulously guarding against the remnants of the Holy See and the Demon Race.”

Zhang Beixing said in a deep voice, his gaze sharp.

“Also, keep a close watch on those newly allied tribes, be vigilant.”

“Yes, sir!”

The two accepted their orders, filled with fighting spirit.

“And also…”

Zhang Beixing shifted his tone, suddenly becoming playful.

“Find out if there are any strange rumors lately.”

“I always feel that matters are not that simple…”

Upon hearing her lover’s instructions, Alina frowned slightly.

Though oblivious to the details, she understood the gravity of the situation.

“Rest assured, Beixing, with me around, I’ll get to the bottom of this.”

The red lips parted, her voice firm.

“Master is wise! I’ll handle it immediately!”

Richard also bowed in acknowledgment, determined to fulfill the entrusted mission.

Only after they withdrew did Zhang Beixing sigh with relief.

He walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the night outside.

The bright moonlight spilled, enveloping the entire Imperial City in a haze.

Yet beneath this outward calm, turbulent undercurrents lurked below.

A storm of tumultuous upheaval silently brews.

…

Days later, within a secret outpost of the Holy See.

Several mysterious figures clad in black robes gathered whispering.

“Damn it, all because of that cursed Vampire!”

The leader gritted his teeth, wishing he could devour his flesh.

“Mere heretics dare trample the dignity of our Holy See of Light!”

“We must settle this account!”

“Indeed, while nursing our wounds, now is not the time for direct confrontation.”

Another spoke sinisterly, his voice deep and grim.

“However, I’ve heard that an ancient tribe in the northern Barbarian Race might have discovered something remarkable.”

“Perhaps it might help us turn the tide…”

These words left everyone stunned.

“Could this be true? What exactly is that thing?”

The others exchanged puzzled glances, each baffled.
