It only lasted a few seconds, and that rune with intricate carvings already filled the hall.
"DESTROYED EVERYTHING."
Along with the emperor's voice, a light slowly appeared with screams of pain emanating from everyone in the hall.
Xue Ning and Xue Ying were no exception. Fu Xie Lan and the others also felt the same way, the pain in her chest like something was forcefully snatched inside her. The same feeling she had around the tower.
Watching everyone in the hall in pain with heartbreaking screams, the emperor smiled triumphantly. The man didn't realize that someone down there was staring at him furiously.
Suddenly all the light that came from the runes in the room dimmed instantly, it could be seen how the engravings were slowly fading away.
The painful screams also disappeared, replaced by the sound of breathing that sounded so heavy and hoarse. Everyone's clothes were already wet with their sweat.
Immediately one of the participants moved quickly towards Fu Xie Lan. He is Gu Yi.
His expression darkened and looked so terrifying. The domineering aura emanating from his body immediately spread throughout the hall making it difficult for anyone to breathe, and also difficult to move. Those who were in a standing position immediately fell to the floor sitting as if forced to submit to someone.
Whereas they had just been released from the pain in each other's bodies, and again, they were returned to accept and feel this kind of torture like earlier.
The oxygen in the room suddenly felt depleted, making their chests even tighter and heavier.
The false emperor who was previously standing in the air with a triumphant smile suddenly fell with such a loud crash. It was as if the gravitational pull in his place was stronger than the rest of the place.
Cold sweat filled his body, his hands trembled uncontrollably, suddenly his body felt weak without energy. He couldn't even stand up.
Staring in horror at the figure in the air who looked at him coldly. Even the sound of his teeth grinding in fear could be heard occasionally.
The magic is gone, not only that. The mana in his body felt weaker with time.
"Wh-who are you?" he stuttered.
"I?"
"The angel of your death," Gu Yi said quietly but his tone was enough to be a terror for the emperor.
"Hahaha."
"Want to kill me?"
"Hahaha."
"It has no meaning at all and has no effect at all."
"Hahaha," the emperor shouted hysterically as he continued to laugh, looking like someone who had lost his mind.
"You thought, why would I lock you all here huh?" he shouted again.
"To buy time for the Queen and Fu Xie Yan to complete the spell, hahaha."
Gu Yi's eyes flashed coldly. A faint frown formed on his forehead behind the mask.
"Do you think, you managed to destroy the tower?"
"Interesting joke."
"Hahaha. What a shame. What you see and destroy is not the real thing."
"Let me tell you, the tower exists only to distract rats like you guys, hahaha."
"The real tower is inside this palace, hahaha."
"Want to kill me? Just kill me. I'm not afraid."
"Today, the safety of all mankind is at stake. The souls of all humans will be sacrificed in the consummation of the form of the hell serpent."
"You think, why do palace maids disappear every year?"
That's because their souls were absorbed by the hell serpent. Today all of you will perish, hahaha," shouted the emperor talking everything in his head.
Wan Lie who heard the fake emperor's words immediately got up from his position, moving towards the door of the hall.
"Want to go out?"
"Too late!" shouted the man again, still kneeling on the floor breathlessly, yet he continued to scream like a madman.
Even the crown that was previously perched on his head was now gone and fall on the floor.
