Chapter 0649: Clearing the Way

“It’s a shame about that Susan!” Slary sighed. He had feelings for Susan, but he kept them buried deep, as he didn’t want to offend the Lord of Light, Elvis. After Elvis and the others were killed by the Yellow Dragon, fearing it even more, he dared not express those feelings.
Tonessa was stunned upon hearing this. She glanced at Slary’s expression and then smiled, saying, “It’s just that Susan wasn’t lucky enough!”
Slary nodded and said, “Give orders to keep a close eye on news from the Netherworld. Report immediately if anything happens!”
Tonessa replied with a smile, “Please rest assured, Lord Slary.”
……
Over an hour later, two figures appeared out of thin air above the central region of the Heavenly Realm.
It was the Yellow Dragon and Jerome.
“Master, shall we head straight to Slary’s Prime God Space now?” Jerome asked in a low voice, twirling the dragon whiskers by his mouth with a mischievous look.
Lately, he had grown fond of fiddling with those whiskers, thinking they made him look cooler.
“It’s up to you!” the Yellow Dragon said, shaking his head slightly with a smile as he watched Jerome play with his whiskers.
“Me?!” Jerome looked at the Yellow Dragon.
The Yellow Dragon nodded affirmatively.
Earlier, he had already located Slary and Tonessa’s auras within the Prime God Space, so he wasn’t worried they would escape. Since this mischievous dragon wanted to show off, the Yellow Dragon naturally would give him the chance.
“Really! Hehe, as you command, master!” Jerome laughed gleefully.
The Yellow Dragon shook his head and smiled.
With his master’s permission to make decisions on his own, Jerome’s concerns dissipated. He roared at the distance, “You there, Slary, get out here right now!”
His roar sent shockwaves through the clouds above, creating a terrifying hurricane that swept around, causing all nearby forces to look up in alarm.
Slary?!
As the God of Fate, not many knew his true name, but that didn’t mean no one did—at least the high-ranking members of Slary’s family did.
Instantly, dozens of figures flew out from Slary City below. These were the elders of Slary’s family, with Barton, the head of the family, at the center.
“How dare you, ignorant brats! How dare you come to our Slary family and act so recklessly!” snapped an old man with silver hair beside Barton, the head of the family.
This silver-haired man was Char, the eldest elder of Slary’s family.

Huang Long and Jerome concealed their auras, so Barton and the others could not gauge their strength. Otherwise, even if given a hundred chances, Char would not dare to scold them.
Barton frowned but did not stop Char. The two of them gave him a strange feeling—something unsettling—and that dark-haired young man seemed familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
“Being reckless?” Jerome laughed in response to Char’s angry outburst, looking at him with interest. “Your master just came to act recklessly. How about that?”
Huang Long stood aside, watching Jerome act tough, but all he saw in him was a sense of rowdiness—no trace of true authority.
Upon hearing this, the elders of the Slary family were furious. They roared in anger, and Char immediately leaped forward to attack Jerome.
Char was indeed one of the strongest fighters in the world. With a mere glance, Huang Long realized his strength was comparable to that of Bishop from the Runing family. Yet, though Char’s full-force attack might seem powerful to others, it paled in comparison to Jerome’s.
Jerome casually raised his hand and slapped Char. Compared to the massive shockwave from Char’s attack, Jerome’s strike made no sound at all, like a child’s slap.
The elders of the Slary family looked at this with mockery.
“Hehe, kid, you’re seeking death. No wonder!” Seeing that the other party didn’t take him seriously, Char’s murderous intent grew even stronger.
Only Barton felt uneasy. He was about to warn Char when, suddenly, Jerome’s casual slap pierced through Char’s attack wave, reaching him in an instant before slapping him on the chest.
A clear sound of bones breaking reached everyone’s ears, followed by a scream. Char flew backward, crashing into the city of Slary below, causing buildings all around to collapse.
After hitting the ground, Char bounced a few times before going still, his body stiff, eyes wide, his face filled with disbelief.
Seeing this, the elders of the Slary family stared at Jerome and Char in disbelief—the outcome was far from what they had expected.
In an instant, the mockery vanished from their faces.
“Elder Char!” After a while, someone finally reacted and cried out sadly for the fallen Char.

This time, despite their anger, none of the Slary clan’s elders dared to rashly attack Geron. Though they thought they were strong, even the eldest elder, Char, died after taking just one strike from him; their fate would surely be even worse if they tried.
Barton stared at Geron, his heart suddenly pounding. The man gave him an increasingly familiar feeling, and his unease grew stronger!
If a single strike could kill Char, who was nearly at perfection, then who was this person?!
The Supreme God!
A powerful Supreme God?!
Barton’s gaze swept over Huang Long’s face, and suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. His expression changed drastically as he trembled and said to Huang Long, “You… you are Huang, Lord Huang Long?!”
Now, he finally recognized this dark-haired young man! It was Huang Long?! Didn’t they say Huang Long had offended the supreme god Morri, drawing a group of such gods here, meaning everyone from the Huang family, including Huang Long, would be destroyed? The Netherworld was sealed—how could Huang Long appear here?!
As Barton was in shock, countless questions flashed through his mind.
Hearing the clan leader’s exclamation, the Slary clan’s elders trembled violently. They followed Barton’s gaze from Geron to Huang Long.
Lord Huang Long?!
In this intermediate divine realm, Huang Long was like heaven—the supreme being who controlled everything!
Was this dark-haired young man Lord Huang Long?!
Only then did the Slary clan’s elders realize that this young man before them matched exactly the description of Huang Long as passed down in the various divine realms.
“Huang, Lord Huang Long!” Immediately, led by Barton, the elders of the Slary clan fell to their knees, bowing respectfully to Huang Long.
Seeing this, Geron grew annoyed. He had just wanted to show off and steal the spotlight, but now his master had taken it away. It seemed he could only play a supporting role.
No matter where he went, no matter how strong his dragon energy was, he was still just a minor figure.
At that moment, a sound of breaking through the air came from afar.
Getting closer, the first two were Slary and Tonesha.
Sensing the commotion here, Slary and Tonesha in the Supreme God’s space also felt it. Yet, through their divine senses, they couldn’t detect Geron or Huang Long. Puzzled, they rushed over to see what was going on.
But from afar, Slary and Tonesha seemed to see something terrifying. They stopped abruptly, their faces filled with horror.
“Huang, Huang Long!”
Their divine senses couldn’t detect them, but their eyes weren’t blind.
Slary and Tonesha froze, their faces turning pale, before flying backward in panic.

Although they didn’t know how the Yellow Dragon escaped from the Netherworld, faced with its terrifying power, the two made the wisest choice. Seeing this, Zerom finally snapped out of his role as Green Leaf. He snorted, exhaled a burst of dragon energy, and casually waved his hand. Unlike his previous strike at Char, this time a massive wave of energy surged forward, causing the weather to change, and terrifying columns of fire instantly engulfed Slary and Tonesha. Hearing the loud noise behind them, Slary and Tonesha turned in horror, only to see the terrifying waves of fire—no, an ocean of fire that covered the sky—leaving them utterly terrified. At that moment, all thoughts of ruling the intermediate divine plane vanished; there was only utter panic. Under the threat of death, they summoned their primary divine artifacts and launched full-force attacks at the sea of fire in an attempt to stop it. But just as they attacked, before they could even scream, they were instantly swallowed by the fire. The sea of fire continued surging forward for millions of miles before finally stopping and disappearing. Barton and the others found that their ancestral gods, Slary and Tonesha, had been completely destroyed, leaving nothing but emptiness. “Ancestor, is this really the end?!” Barton muttered to the elders of the Slary family, his eyes vacant. In the city of Slary, hundreds of millions of members of the Slary family were stunned. Zerom retracted his hand and, seeing the expressions of Barton and the others, felt a sense of satisfaction. Of course, he didn’t become complacent. After dealing with Slary and Tonesha, he turned to the Yellow Dragon and said, “Master.” The Yellow Dragon nodded. “I said it’s up to you.” Only then did Zerom breathe a sigh of relief, then turned to look at Barton and the others. A while later, the Yellow Dragon and Zerom left the Heavenly Realm and headed to Hell to deal with their next target. Before long, news spread in the Heavenly Realm that the Slary family had been wiped out by the Yellow Dragon. This news caused panic among many other gods—those who had failed to help the Yellow family when they were in dire straits. However, no matter how panicked or regretful these gods were, they couldn’t escape the same fate as Slary and Tonesha—they were all eliminated by the Yellow Dragon. At the same time that these gods were destroyed by the Yellow Dragon, news of supreme divine warriors like Qibuhai, who had descended from the Chaos Divine Plane to the Netherworld, being killed by the Yellow Dragon also spread wildly across countless divine planes, further elevating the Yellow Dragon’s authority to new heights. A few days later, after touring various divine planes, the Yellow Dragon and Zerom returned to the Nether Sea. By then, the members of the Yellow family, Li Yifeng, and Susan, had successfully merged with supreme divine essences and risen to become supreme divine warriors.
