Chapter 243: 242 Cleaving Apart The Land

Elizabeth was aware that before the founding of the Crawford Kingdom was established, there was a great cleansing that took place just after the completion of the Great Wall. As for the exact parties involved in the cleansing, there were no records and had been buried in history. 

The public was not even aware that such a dark event took place in history because it was purposely hidden. It was human nature to bury the ugliness of their past and glorify their achievements.

Back then, there had been far, far too many royal bloodlines of fallen kingdoms within the group of survivors they made it to the Human Domain.

When the Great Wall was built, the unity humanity had was easily fragmented as everyone turned towards their own interest, fighting for the lands to rebuild their own kingdoms. 

Every royal family was used to standing above millions and lording over vast expanses of lands, they would not be settled with a small piece of the Human Domain and fought for greater benefits. Only a few royal families of that time were satisfied with just occupying a small piece of land each.

When the demands of many royal families could not be met, a war was on the verge of breaking out. In order to save the dwindling population of humanity, the greedy royalties that made up the minority were slaughtered in cold blood by the Hero King. 

Elizabeth had never heard of the Denholm Royal Family, but she could guess that one of the descendent of those royal families survived the disaster back then and became the big scourge it was today.

"I see, you're a descendent of those royal families. Then allow me to finish off what Hero King had left unfinished!" Elizabeth said coldly.

Although it was hard to say whether what the Hero King did was right or wrong, humanity being able to thrive again was all due to the Hero King's action.

The Grand Elder was already at a boiling point. When he heard the Queen's words, he began to laugh insidiously and sneered, "You want to kill me? Hahaha! You don't even know what kind of situation you are in!" 

Elizabeth soon frowned as she felt her movements being restricted. 

"A Blood Domain that can suppress the movements of those inside it, huh?" She slowly muttered.

"It's too late for you to realize!" The Grand Elder grinned and increased the suppression strength.

Elizabeth was rooted on the spot and the ground beneath her feet began to tremble from the pressure of her attempting to move like she was under a powerful gravity suppression.

Her blood flowed normally but she was given the impression that it was not. 

Despite the situation looking seemingly unfavorable, she was not worried and looked at the Grand Elder calmly.

"How can you still remain calm after this? I can kill you any time I want!" The Grand Elder frowned. 

Thus, despite over 500 years have passed and the actual people involved were dead, the hatred did not diminish but grew stronger instead under their ancestor's manipulative teachings.

Every member was twisted by their ancestor's teachings that everything the Crawford Royal Family enjoyed today should have belonged to them! They were robbed of their rightful place and the Crawford Royal Family were all thieves.

"You think something like this can stop me?" Elizabeth said impassively.

The suppression effect seemed to have waned until it was completely ineffective. Elizabeth just had to exert her own laws to counteract the suppression. 

Regardless of their comprehension of laws, they were both Preliminary Accession-level Transcendents. 

They have a Field of Authority that stops other Transcendents from manipulating the elements within one's own body. 

Although every Awakener also has a Field of Authority that stops other Awakeners from manipulating their body's elements, it was much weaker compared to a Transcendent. 

Nevertheless, it was still enough to stop a Transcendent from ripping the element out of Awakeners unless direct contact was made.

Awakeners were the masters of their own bodies. Only when they are dead will their body's elements be easily manipulated through distance. 

The Grand Elder grunted as he felt the Queen imposing her own pressure on him. After all, blood also contains elements of iron.

But shortly after, he also waived the suppression off him. Such tricks were only effective on lower level Awakeners.

"Hmph! You're asking to die!" The Grand Elder roared with an angry tone. 

Elizabeth knew the suppression would not work on the Grand Elder either, but she did it anyway in order to provoke him. 

In battle, it was important to keep calm and not act on impulse. Rash actions were more likely to cost them their lives.

The Grand Elder stomped his feet and thrust himself at the Queen. He could guess the Queen's intention and would not fall for such a simple trick at his age. With his sly nature, he played along to find an opening.

In a short instance, the two were engaged in battle, both physically and psychologically.

The two traded blows for blow with their swords, cracking the earth and shattering the air with the force of their clashes. 

The Grand Elder's sword was slowly chipped away but it would immediately repair itself in the next moment. 

They appeared to be evenly matched, but neither of them seemed to have gone all out and was still testing the waters, even now.

Suddenly, the Grand Elder laughed, "While you are here busy fighting me, who's going stop the southern army?"

Elizabeth was unmoved and coldly said, "You don't have to worry about that."

Although Eastfell Region's fall and the betrayal of Eastfell City's Governor was unexpected, there was a contingency plan for that. Right now, another army should be heading there from the south to stop their advance!

"Fine, let's say you did prepare a backup plan to stop the southern army, but did you think I am the only Transcendent that participated in this war? The Transcendent from the Illusory Butterfly Sect is probably leading another army and storming on your capital as we speak!" The Grand Elder sneered as his eyes flickered with an ulterior motive for revealing that information.

Elizabeth finally had a change in expression while the Grand Elder reacted to the opening he created.

The Blood Domain transformed into countless Blood Needles and rained down on the Queen, while the Grand Elder charged forward at the same time, leaving the Queen little room to maneuver.

However!

Just as the Grand Elder about to hack out with his sword, he had a crisp change in expression and immediately retreated.

The Blood Needles that rained down on the Queen suddenly changed trajectory at the next moment and shot in different directions, but that was not what caused the Grand Elder to retreat with alarm.

The Queen's aura suddenly changed and even the air itself seemed to have changed as it billowed outwards. 

A red line appeared on the Grand Elder's face as he wiped his cheek and trembled when he saw his own blood. Did he get cut? How did he get cut?!

"What did you did you?!" 

The Grand Elder questioned with a deep interrogative tone. He wasn't surprised by the fact the Queen could interfere with his manipulative control over blood, but he did not see the Queen attack at all! He was both alarmed and incomprehensive!

"If what you said was true then I no longer have time to play with you!"

Elizabeth said coldly as her sword began to ring with vibrations while the surrounding air surged with sharpness before coiling around the sword with a glimpse of silver sheen.

The sword was raised in the air before she hacked down at Grand Elder in the distance. A frighteningly fast and powerful sword wave was shot out from the sword as it sliced through the air.

The Grand Elder turned ghastly paled and dodged with all his might. His instincts screamed danger. That was not something he could block!

If he tried, he would be sliced apart without a doubt!

The sword wave narrowly missed the Grand Elder and continued onwards to cleave the earth and parted the lands. The Blood Domain was broken and shattered like broken glasses. 

Looking at the 200-yard stretch of divided land, the Grand Elder gasped with lingering fear, before looking back at the Queen. He did not dare stray his attention for too long from this fearsome opponent!

"That was sword intent, wasn't it? You're a Sword Master!"

Elizabeth was lazy to explain and dashed forward while her sword vibrated with sharpness again. She was not a Sword Master, but as a swordsman with the Metal Law, she might as well be!

"W-Wait!" 

The Grand Elder was frightened and immediately tucked tail and ran. Against an attack that cannot be blocked, he had no hope of winning!

The broken blood shards turned back into viscous liquid and shot towards the Queen in an effort to impede her movements, but the Queen just hacked out with her sword and another frightening sword wave was sent his way.

Swoosh!

An arm was sliced off, but the Grand Elder did not even look back for it and continued to flee for his life. He finally was painfully aware of the fearsome prowess of metal-users.

Naturally, Elizabeth was not going to let the Blood Transcendent escape and immediately chased after while charging up her next attack.

If she let the Grand Elder live, she would not be able to soothe the souls of her dead soldiers!

All blood cultivators must be killed on sight! Death without mercy!
