Chapter 938: A Small Boss Appears
What Luo Tian hated the most was being threatened.
Luo Tian’s main goal in entering the Ancient World was to find an antidote for the Soul Poison. He never wanted to join any force or sect. He just wanted to find an antidote and quickly return to the Tianxuan Continent.
But the moment he entered the Ancient World, he kept encountering trouble.
He endured!
He tried to stay low-key!
But what was the result?
What he got in return was lots of mocking and disdain. This made him extremely pissed off.
He originally didn’t want to participate in this low-level competition and didn’t want to become a disciple of the Bai family. In the eyes of others, the Bai family might be some unreachable silver level family. But to Luo Tian, he didn’t put them in his eyes at all.
Even if he got first place in the competition, he would still reject the Bai family.
In this competition, Bai Xuan wanted Wu Feng to win. If this happens, Bai Xuan would gain more face within the Bai family. He had already mentioned Wu Feng to the Bai family and promised them Wu Feng would be the champion. But the appearance of the dark horse Luo Tian had made Bai Xuan quite unhappy.
He approached Luo Tian not to discuss with him but to order him!
Upon hearing Luo Tian’s response, Bai Xuan’s expression drastically changed to one of intense killing intent. His triangular shaped eyes glared at Luo Tian as he said, “Kid, do you know who you are speaking to?”
“Offending me is equivalent to offending the Bai family. If you offend the Bai family, you won’t be able to stay alive even if you had ten thousand lives to spare.”
“My suggestion is that you know what’s good for you!”
“Wait a bit before you take the initiative to admit your defeat. Then, kneel down and kowtow to Wu Feng in apology. If you dare not do as I say, I will let you die a miserable death.”
Luo Tian coldly sneered, “Why even wait a bit? Why not do it right now? Come bite me right now if you have the guts! You think this daddy is afraid of you? Damn dog thing, a silver level Bai family can only cultivate crappy people like you?!”
Luo Tian showed no fear at all.
He tried to stay low-key before, but now, Luo Tian decided to be high-profile! He wasn’t going to give Bai Xuan any face at all!
Whoever treated him poorly, he was going to pay them back ten times!
Threaten him?
This was something Luo Tian hated the most.
Bai Xuan’s face turned green while cracking sounds could be heard from him clenching his teeth. He wanted to kill Luo Tian right here, but he couldn’t. The reason being he had the same thought as Wu Feng – Luo Tian had to die on the stage. This would allow Wu Feng and his influence to increase!
Eventually, Bai Xuan harrumphed, “Good. Good. Good. Luo Tian, remember your own words carefully. You just wait and see what will happen to you!”
Bai Xuan then left without looking back.
Luo Tian said with a smile, “What should I wait for? Just come bite me right now if you have the guts. If you don’t have the guts, please scram further away from this daddy.”
Bai Xuan clenched his fists as killing intent ballooned. But he held it in and said while walking away, “You will die. You will die a very miserable death.”
He then continued walking toward the Spirit Gathering Sect after saying those words.
He didn’t say anything to Wang Huan and stopped next to Wu Feng. He then said, “I want you to kill Luo Tian. I want you to use the cruelest method you have to make him kneel on the ground and kowtow in apology. I want all the people in Martial Mountain City to see it so that he is doomed beyond redemption.”
Bai Xuan’s voice was shaking from anger.
Wu Feng naturally detected it and said heavily, “Don’t worry, Elder Bai. I will make him regret everything he has done today. I will make him kneel before me and call me daddy.”
Bai Xuan finally smiled in satisfaction. He brought out a medicinal pill and gave it to Wu Feng, “This is a Heavenly Abstruse Pill. After eating it, your cultivation will instantly rise by two small realms. If you find that you aren’t his match, immediately take it. Do you understand?”
It wasn’t that he didn’t believe in Wu Feng, but he wanted Wu Feng to use the cruelest and quickest method to make Luo Tian unable to stand.
Bai Xuan wanted to vent his anger!
Wang Huan’s pupils shook, and his expression became one of shock. He then muttered softly, “Heavenly Abstruse Pill…”
Wu Feng carefully received it as his gaze was full of shock. This was a tier three spiritual pill! Even though there was a certain backlash, one’s cultivation would soar after taking it, so it was considered a life-saving spiritual pill!
Bai Xuan glanced at Wang Huan’s shocked expression and said, “Sect Leader Wang, I will give your Spirit Gathering Sect double the normal cultivation resources next year. You should be thanking Wu Feng because if it weren’t for him, you guys would be getting nothing.”
Wang Huan understood what was going on, “Thank you, Elder Bai! Thank you very much!”
Heavenly Abstruse Pill!
It can increase the user’s cultivation by two small realms. In simpler terms, it can temporarily increase the user by two levels.
But there naturally was a time limit to its effects. Once the time is up, the user will suffer from a reversal of their yuan energy. In a worst case scenario, the user might become crippled or even die. This was the terrifying aspect of an after-effect or a backlash. The reason why Wang Huan was so shocked was not because of how powerful the pill was but because he was worried Wu Feng would become a cripple after using it.
Wu Feng had just arrived in the Ancient World, so his understanding of the Heavenly Abstruse Pill was limited.
He only knew the pill could raise his cultivation by two small realms and had no clue how terrifying the backlash was.
It was very clear that Bai Xuan wanted Luo Tian dead. He wanted Luo Tian dead so badly that he gave Wu Feng a Heavenly Abstruse Pill as a precaution.
His words to Wang Huan had a very clear undertone. “You better know what’s good for you and not say anything unnecessary. Otherwise, you will get nothing.”
Compared to Wu Feng, Wang Huan naturally knew which side to stand on. He looked at Wu Feng’s happy look and said to himself, “It is all up to you now. It’s best that you don’t use it because once you do… it will be all over for you. But even if you use it, our Spirit Gathering Sect will still be earning big next year, hahaha…”
To Wang Huan and Bai Xuan, Wu Feng was just a chess piece.
This chess piece will be discarded when the right time comes.
Bai Xuan was angry at Luo Tian and wanted Wu Feng to kill him. He wanted Luo Tian to pay a painful price for the words he had just said. But he was worried Wu Feng wouldn’t be able to accomplish it. In order to guarantee complete success, he gave Wu Feng the Heavenly Abstruse Pill.
“Clang~!”
After the gong sound, the referee got onto the stage and announced, “The last round of the competition will start now!”
The crowd in the plaza became quiet.
Some people looked at Wu Feng and started chanting, “Kill him! Kill him! Instant kill!”
Some people looked at Luo Tian and chanted, “Defeat him! Defeat him!”
At this time, Luo Tian’s payout ratio was a bit higher than Wu Feng’s, but still, not many people placed their bets on him to win.
Wu Feng got onto the stage ahead of Luo Tian. He looked at Luo Tian’s slow strolling gait and immediately became annoyed. He revealed an expression of arrogance as he mocked, “Hey trash, I told you before that your life belonged to me. But I will give you a chance…”
“As long as you kowtow to me and call me daddy, I might spare your life when I’m in a good mood.”
“Otherwise…”
“Humph~!”
“I will beat you until you crawl around like a dead dog!”
Extraordinary arrogance.
With the Heavenly Abstruse Pill in hand, Wu Feng became even more arrogant, like he wasn’t putting anyone in his eyes.
Luo Tian stepped onto the stage and looked over. His expression secretly changed, “Huh? How come there’s a golden glow beneath his feet? There weren’t any in the beginning, so did he somehow turn into a small boss?”
“Bai Xuan was chatting with him just prior, so maybe… maybe something good might explode from him now?”
“Heh heh…” Luo Tian chuckled.
