King of Assassins-Chapter 664 - 503: The Glory of Blood

The brilliant golden light tore through the darkness, leaving a deep imprint on the endless starry sky scroll.
It also left a deep imprint in Robin's eyes and heart.
Robin saw clearly, a group of elders shattered and died in the golden fierce light. No one could withstand Yun Qingshang's spear.
Roaming back and forth wildly, Yun Qingshang now exuded a kind of casual elegance and agility that was lacking moments ago.
Earlier, when Robin and Yun Qingshang had a skirmish, Yun Qingshang's spear technique was fierce and aggressive, yet somewhat stiff.
It was just too proper, lacking the control that a powerhouse exercises at will.
Within just two minutes, Yun Qingshang had undergone a transformation. Her spear technique remained fierce and aggressive, but now there was a flexible ease in her movements. Or rather, it was a kind of free-spirited elegance.
The fierce and aggressive spear technique was now wielded with ease.
Robin could vaguely see that this was the taste of freedom.
Becoming the Spear Master of the Spear of Freedom allowed Yun Qingshang to step into the grandmaster level and comprehend her own path.
Yun Qingshang's deep understanding of the Path of Freedom permeated her body, mind, spirit, and all her power.
So much so that when she wielded the World-Ending Spear, it still carried a strong flavor of freedom.
Robin knew that the Spear of Freedom conflicted greatly with other marvels. Especially with powerful marvels like the King Slayer Sword, which suppressed the Spear of Freedom even more.
Whenever Marco wielded the King Slayer Sword, it was always somewhat uncoordinated. That's why when he tried to kill Gao Xuan, he ended up being counter-killed by Gao Xuan.
But with Yun Qingshang, Robin saw no such lack of coordination.
It might be that the World-Ending Spear couldn't suppress the Spear of Freedom, or perhaps Yun Qingshang had a deeper understanding of the Path of Freedom.
No matter the reason, at this moment, Yun Qingshang was extremely powerful. Even with the Reverse Cross Godslaying Spear, he couldn't withstand even one strike from her.
Moreover, there was the even more terrifying Gao Xuan.
The replica of the Master of Blood descended, consecutively casting two Divine Power Laws, yet Gao Xuan withstood them both. This frightening power completely extinguished Robin's will to fight.
Robin let go of the Reverse Cross Godslaying Spear, raised his withered hands above his head, and abandoned all resistance.
It was precisely this complete surrender that spared him from Yun Qingshang's spear.
To be accurate, it was Gao Xuan who had Yun Qingshang hold back.
As the brazen and unrestrained golden light gradually dissipated, the starry sky returned to its tranquil and deep state.
Gao Xuan and Yun Qingshang approached Robin, Yun Qingshang's gaze was cold and indifferent, devoid of any emotion.
However, Gao Xuan's eyes were deep and his expression complex.
Robin also understood that Gao Xuan was the one in control. He said, "The Domain of the Gods has hundreds of billions of citizens. If we in the high ranks are all wiped out, the Domain of the Gods will surely fall into chaos. Sir, I am willing to surrender unconditionally."
The Elder Council governs the Domain of the Gods, while the High Priest controls the Elder Council. This distribution of power has been in place for three thousand years.
Now that most of the elders in the Elder Council have been wiped out, the entire administrative system is on the brink of collapse.
The remaining few elders, realizing the truth of the situation, would surely try every possible way to seize power.
No one has an overwhelming advantage, so the Domain of the Gods is likely to fracture as a result.
The high-level struggles are sure to morph into wars. For the citizens, war is always a disaster.
Robin believed that Gao Xuan understood this principle. This young man, flamboyant and rebellious, yet wise.
Just by looking at Gao Xuan's tactical arrangements for the battle, it was clear that he had come fully prepared to annihilate Augustine's faction.
Even for the Master of Blood that descended, Gao Xuan had prepared for dealing with it.
Robin believed in Gao Xuan's wisdom and judgment, and he also believed that this person would have the magnanimity to tolerate him.
Even if Gao Xuan couldn't tolerate him, it would only mean death. To fight with arms was a certain death, but to surrender there was still a sliver of hope.
In this regard, Robin had calculated very clearly.
Gao Xuan also understood Robin's intention, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "You're quite smart."
He continued, "Take us back to the City of Victory, to the Elder Council."
As Gao Xuan spoke, he waved his sleeve to put away the Reverse Cross Godslaying Spear. Such a Divine Artifact could not be left with Robin.
Despite Robin's seemingly dying state, he was a Golden Upper Tier. Among the trillion in the Alliance, there were fewer than twenty who could actually defeat him.
Robin said with some difficulty, "To get back, we need to use the Whip of the Fallen Demon King."
Transferring such a large arena across tens of light-years was primarily the power of the Whip of the Fallen Demon King.
This whip was not only extremely poisonous but also excelled in space transfer.
However, to achieve large-scale space transfer, no one possessed the capability; they all needed to rely on the Power of the Evil God.
Now, with only three people left, it was much easier to return.
Gao Xuan shook his head, "No need to trouble ourselves like that."
With a wave of his long sleeve, the starry sky suddenly reversed. When Robin's perception returned to normal, they were already in the Elder Council meeting hall.
The meeting hall was entirely constructed with Han Baiyu Stone, featuring Ancient Roman architectural style, surrounded by massive columns.
There were five rows of circular tiered seating. These seats did not specify particular seat areas, exhibiting a relatively casual freedom.
If the large room were filled, it could accommodate two to three hundred people.
Gao Xuan knew that according to the Elder Council's rules, there could be no more than one hundred and twenty elders at most.
In fact, each term of elders never exceeded one hundred.
The majority of these elders were governors of various planets or Space Fleet Commanders.
Only on significant matters did these elders have the opportunity to speak.
Most issues were jointly decided by about twenty elders. Among them, the High Priest also served as president of the Elder Council, holding the highest authority.
This time, the vast majority of Golden Powerhouses in the Elder Council were wiped out. Only a few Golden Powerhouses with crucial roles remained in other Star Realms to hold important positions.
