1429 The Birth of Evil God

"Y-Your Majesty! That arrogant bastard slew the soldiers we sent again! At this rate, we'll lose all of our spare soldiers to him!" The current Supreme General of the Celestial Army reported to the Celestial Emperor.

Frustration clenched the Celestial Emperor's teeth together. If not for the diversion of his main army in the Heavenly War of Immortals and Gods, he could have easily crushed Tian Xian. But alas, his only option was to dispatch his reserve forces, as his enemies could potentially change the tide of their war if he weakened his main army even slightly.

It's been six years since Tian Xian openly defied the Celestial Emperor. Tens of thousands of soldiers from the Celestial Emperor had perished to Tian Xian, who was only becoming more formidable with every fight.

'If I don't take care of this little bastard soon, he'll definitely become a real thorn in my side.' The Celestial Emperor wanted to recruit Tian Xian to end the war quicker, but he ended up making Tian Xian an enemy, who now had the potential to prolong the war.

The realization that Tian Xian could be the catalyst for his downfall drove the Celestial Emperor to the brink of madness.

"How dare a mere city lord defy me, the Celestial Emperor?! Supreme General, I don't care what it takes or how much you dirty your hands! I want that bastard to despair! I want him to regret defying me! While you distract him with some soldiers, sneak into the city and remove his loved ones from existence!" The Celestial Emperor roared, his eyes bloodshot.

"As Your Majesty commands!" The Supreme General did not have an ounce of hesitation within his voice despite being given such an order.

The following month, ten thousand soldiers arrived at the City of Xian, looking more ominous than ever.

When Tian Xian saw this, he immediately left the city to confront them as usual. Of course, he left behind some soldiers to guard the city and his beloved wife just in case.

Unfortunately, the Supreme General was an existence that even Tian Xian's strongest soldiers had no hopes of defeating in a group. Thus, the Supreme General sneaked into the City of Xian without alerting anyone, located Tian Xian's living quarters, and silently killed all of the soldiers guarding it, before entering the building.

Inside, a woman sat on the bed, silently caressing her round stomach that looked like it was about to burst at any moment.

"Who's there?!" Xiu Mei was immediately alerted when the formation around the building was suddenly destroyed.

The door to her room was kicked down the next second, and a figure soaked in blood casually walked inside, his weapon still dripping with blood.

"W-who are you?" Xiu Mei could instantly tell at a glance that she was no match for this individual and that she had no hopes of escaping.

"I am your executioner," said the Supreme General in a cold voice.

"Why are you doing this…?" she asked.

"Because your husband offended someone he couldn't afford to offend, and now he will pay the price for defying His Majesty, the Celestial Emperor."

Despite her seemingly helpless situation, Xiu Mei did not let fear control her and even smiled, "I'm surprised it took you so long to come after me."

"Hmph." The Supreme General coldly sneered as he slowly approached her.

The Celestial Emperor's decision to dispatch the Supreme General to the City of Xian during a critical juncture of the Heavenly War of Immortals and Gods risked their current advantage in the conflict. Yet, the Celestial Emperor deemed Tian Xian to be threatening enough to take such a risk.

This is also why the Celestial Emperor only ordered the Supreme General to assassinate Xiu Mei, since he wouldn't be able to kill Tian Xian without revealing his presence there to their enemies.

'Ah… I'm truly sorry, my darling… for being such a useless wife and mother…' Xiu Mei knew that fighting back or trying to escape would only be futile effort, so she used what little time she had left to think of Tian Xian and recall all of the time they'd spent together.

Meanwhile, when Tian Xian sensed that the formation around his house had been destroyed in the midst of his fight with the Celestial Army, he, without any hesitation, abandoned the battlefield for the first time in his life as a soldier and rushed back to the city.

'Please let me make it back in time!' He prayed inwardly until he returned home.

When he arrived, he ignored the corpses that surrounded his house and immediately went inside the building.

"Xiu Mei! Are you okay?!" Tian Xian shouted as he rushed to her room.

However, his movements froze when he reached the entrance to her room.

Standing outside the broken entrance, he could see the horrific scene inside the room. There was blood splattered everywhere, staining the walls, ceiling, and furniture. And in the center of this room was a lifeless body that had its limbs severed.

However, the true horror lay in the grotesque sight of the body's stomach, savagely cut open and ripped apart to reveal the small, helpless figure nestled within.

Seeing this gruesome scene, Tian Xian fell to his knees with a loud thud, his face filled with shock and despair.

"X-Xiu Mei…"

"Aah… Aaahhh! AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!"

Tian Xian released an inhuman cry that shook the entire city.

Tears filled his eyes and flowed down his face like two streams during a rainstorm, quickly turning into blood a few moments later.

Suddenly, Tian Xian stopped moving and collapsed into the puddle of blood beneath him. However, he hadn't lost consciousness. In fact, he was wide awake, and something mythical was happening inside his head. Memories of a life that he didn't recognize were flowing into his mind.

Sometime later, Tian Xian slowly pushed himself off the floor, muttering in a low voice, "Tian Yang… Huang Xiao Li… Shura…"

As clarity returned to his mind, Tian Xian's fury surged like a tempest, his fists clenched so tightly that the bones within shattered under the force of his rage.

Overwhelming killing intent and bloodlust emanated from him, so intense that it materialized into a thick crimson fog, shrouding the entire city in its ominous embrace, and his once brown eyes now glowed with a menacing red hue, as if they had been soaked in fresh blood.

"Celestial Emperor!!! I will not rest until I slaughter everyone around you and bathe in your blood!!!"

Thus, the one who would soon terrorize the Divine Heaven as the Evil God was born.
