Du Youqian had very much hoped that Master Nine would struggle a bit before his death—a desperate, powerless struggle, of course.
He'd also hoped Master Nine would spit out some harsh, arrogant words laced with despair.
Then he'd hoped he would try to counterattack, only to be defeated by him once more.
That way, other Cultivators would understand just how hard he had worked, how much effort he had put in.
But in reality, Master Nine didn't say a word.
The Sword Intent of "Annihilate" passed through the body of the Demon Zombie and struck him directly, obliterating his body, Divine Sense, and soul, leaving not even ashes behind.
Its power still unspent, it followed the connections to everything related to Master Nine, annihilating all of his backup plans and arrangements. If he had any Split Souls, it would annihilate them all as well.
If Master Nine had contingencies in the past or the future, or even in the realm of illusion, they would be annihilated too.
