Chapter 866: Strength and Imposing Manner, Double the Force

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Regarding the background of Fire Kylin, ever since his appearance, everyone was well aware of his Qin background as they were all intelligent people with ears and eyes.

The fact of how the Qin Clan helped the Hundred Lane Clan was already an astonishing matter to many people.

The Fire Kylin was only the first one to come out, yet he already raised the standard to Ninth Calamity Transformation Supreme Dao armor. Many people just rolled their eyes and knew that certainly, the Vase Mound Mountain would lose this round. The other party was just flirting and a form of unadorned showing off!

The reason for not launching a killer move in the beginning was to wait for Hu Qiuzhen to use his trump card. After using it, he would defeat him cleanly. In terms of striking the morale, such actions would pose a first-rate influence.

Hu Qiuzhen lost. He lost without the least bit of suspense.

He was far inferior in terms of strength and his equipment was in great disparity. Almost without a trump card, he got slapped down the stage by Fire Kylin. Gushing out a mouthful of blood, he appeared as ashen as white paper. If Qin Wushuang didn’t ask Fire Kylin to restrain himself to some extent and to not do unnecessary killing moves, ten warriors at his level could have been killed.

Qin Wushuang did not allow Fire Kylin to create extra murdering not because he was kind, nor was he sympathetic to the Vase Mound Mountain, but to put on a show to the hundreds and thousands of people at the scene.

Everyone could see that besides the chief evil character, the Xin Clan, the Qin Clan would not kill unnecessarily.

Although such detail appeared insignificant, it was totally effective to bribe the will of the people.

When the first battle was lost, instantly the morale of the Vase Mound House was weakened. In the second round, they sent out a sealed beast soul. For the Hundred Lane House, they send out Second Suzerain, Bai Litu.

Regardless of everything, the sealed beast soul was a Transformation Supreme Dao beast soul of the Fourth or Fifth Calamity. Despite reducing the combat power for two levels, it would be stronger than Bai Litu, who was at the Coagulate Supreme Dao Stage. For this round, within the calculation of Qin Wushuang and the Hundred Lane Clan, it would be a round that could either be won or lost. The most crucial one would be the third round.

Since Bai Litu went on without stress, the exchange of moves between him and that beast soul were rather exciting. Yet, despite having impenetrable defense, his lack of offensive power could not form fatal attacks to the beast soul. It was the same as standing on equal ground to win. In this case, sooner or later he would lose.

Of course Qin Wushuang had enough equipment. However, when equipping Bai Litu, a figure without any form of advantage in terms of talent or skill, he could not necessarily produce good results. Thus, for the second round, Qin Wushuang chose to give up.

After having held on for more than an hour, Bai Litu floated off the Xuan Yuan stage leisurely. He admitted defeat!

Xuan Yuan Ba didn’t say anything. For such battle scene, how could someone as experienced as him not see anything? If Bai Litu risked his life to hold on to it, he would be asking for trouble. He would look more dignified as he took the initiative to surrender. In the world of martial artists, it’s not an embarrassing matter to surrender when you have weaker strength.

Yet, Bai Litu’s initiative to surrender caused a burst of jeering from the audience beneath the stage. Initially, the audience that was once exited by the appearance of Fire Kylin suddenly felt that that was all the Hundred Lane House could do. Could it be they couldn’t finish what they started?

Instantly, the competition they thought would be easy because much more suspenseful.

The third round would be the decisive round.

Although Xin Tianwen felt there certainly hid a scheme when Bai Litu admitted defeat straightforwardly, in the third round, there was no more room for schemes to take place. They would be competing with their own skill and equipment.

Bai Liguang walked onto the Xuan Yuan stage leisurely. He shot a forceful glance towards Xin Tianwen’s side. After getting oppressed by the Xin Clan for many years, it seemed it would get unleashed in this one look.

In the past, certainly Bai Liguang would not dare to challenge Xin Tianwen. Yet currently, he felt he had enough confidence. After getting suppressed by Xin Tianwen for all these years, indeed the anger accumulated inside him needed an opening.

Xin Tianwen was infuriated by Bai Liguang’s despicable attitude, yet he still appeared calm and collected on the surface. Despite pretending not having heard, a burst of unknown anger scuttled up.

When someone like Bai Liguang dared to provoke him, Xin Tianwen wondered whether or not he should use some forceful method to build his prestige…

“Daoist Tianwen, calm down,” Saber Beard’s leisurely voice emerged. “Since this Bai Liguang went to the Qin Clan, most likely all of his movements are the tactic of the Qin Clan. They deliberately provoke you so you are incapable of performing your best. This is an external move.”

“Ha ha, you are as clear as a flame, indeed you hit the mark with your comment. Let them be unbridled. When I sit still on the Heavenly Emperor seat, I will settle the debt with them slowly. Bai Liguang, soon I will let you know the meaning of regret!”

When thinking here, Xin Tianwen could not help but to look towards the Qin Clan. What he saw was Qin Wushuang sitting with his eyes half closed and twitching the corner of his mouth slightly. From that trace of a smile, it seemed to have contained ridicule. The moment when Xin Tianwen shot his glance, suddenly Qin Wushuang opened his eyes. He fixed his gaze at him and his eyes were full of ridicule.

Xin Tianwen felt rather dull. In terms of such a meaningless trick, how is it possible someone as old-fashioned as him be a match to the youngster?

Qin Wushuang swayed his sleeve gently and made a gesture with his right hand unconsciously. He pointed his thumb down and opened his mouth. With a spitting sound, he spit out. Then, he closed his eyes and no longer paid attention to Xin Tianwen.

Xin Tianwen felt the roots of his teeth tickle with hatred as he could not refrain from squeezing his fists tightly.

On the Xuan Yuan stage, the decisive round to determine the first spot of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates was on the verge of getting started.

It seemed as if Bai Liguang was not here to fight. Appearing unhurried and strolling at a leisurely pace, he seemed to be taking a stroll in his own backyard.

He narrowed his eyes into a line and shot a glance at Hu Qiurui. “Little Hu Qiu, your wish is satisfied to make you qualified to meet me. But, I promise that this will become your lifelong nightmare.”

Hu Qiurui also had a stinking mouth as he said with equal harshness, “Just a nightmare? I will not let you have the chance to have the nightmare.”

Bai Liguang deliberately trembled and said with a strange tone, “Ah, I am so scared. Tell me, how much equipment and benefits has your master given you?”

Hu Qiurui gave a snort. “Don’t be so high and mighty, everyone knows that you are just a guard dog to the Qin Clan.”

Bai Liguang roared with laughter. “Everyone sees the noble and unquestionable integrity of the Qin Clan. As long as you are not blind, you can see it. That’s right, my Hundred Lane Clan went to ask for the Qin Clan’s help. The Qin Clan, disregards former hatred, has a broad breadth of mind, and they possess a connection with humanity. A clan with a big breadth of mind is suitable to be the master of my Heavenly Emperor Mountain. For the current Heavenly Emperor Gate, besides striking their enemies, what else did they do? In order to have a flourishing martial arts world at the Xuan Yuan Mound, we must have a sect with top skills and breadth of mind. Little Hu Qiu, you say that my Hundred Lane Clan pledges loyalty to the Qin Clan, it’s not at all embarrassing. It’s called a talented person choosing a patron of integrity! On the other hand, tsk tsk, for your declining powerhouse, you thought you could lean against some big tree?”

The offensive words did not just target the Vase Mound Mountain, but pointed directly to the Xin Clan. It was the same this as striking Xin Tianwen’s face.

Everyone beneath the stage was overwhelmed with shock as they lost all color in their face. Even those participating sects were astonished by Bai Liguang’s words.

Regardless, the seat of Heavenly Emperor had yet to be determined. Despite having confidence in the Qin Clan, they should not have inflated the situation to such extent. Could it be that they truly calculated the Xin Clan could not turn around?

Xin Tianwen’s face turned into the color of a pig liver.

Since ancient times, in this competition, disputes with words were also a part of it. It was what the audience loved to see and hear. Therefore, Xuan Yuan Ba only observed on the side with cold eyes, yet he did not interfere nor did he urge them to start.

Hu Qiurui flew into rage out of humiliation. With a snatch, he already pulled a giant knife into his hand. He shouted, “Let’s see if your skills are as swift as your mouth.”

Without being afraid, Bai Liguang roared with laughter and still stood with his hands in his back. “You can take it when we fight verbally, you will not get your chance when we fight in the arena.”

After he finished, with a flash, Bai Liguang already transformed into hundreds of phantoms. When swaying on the Xuan Yuan Stage, phantoms appeared in all directions.

It seemed as if ten thousand weapons were added onto the to form different imaginary weapons. All of the dense piles of weapons went to greet Hu Qiurui’s entire body.

Indeed, Hu Qiurui was much weaker than Bai Liguang. If Xin Tianwen had not given him a Sixth Calamity Transformation Supreme Dao weapon, he would not have had much chance to win.

As he swung the large blade, the austere blade emitted cold lights. From left to right, he kept slashing out. Piles of air walls kept congealing around his body. Criss-crossing in different directions, it formed into a lotus-like defensive circle.

For this defensive circle, layers and layers demonstrated a powerful defense. When Bai Liguang’s attack went at him, that lotus shaped blade light withdrew and closed itself on the Xuan Yuan stage. Forming into a flower bud that was waiting to blossom, it rotated at a rapid speed all of a sudden.

As soon as it swayed, the white and ghastly blade lights swayed countless sparkling and translucent starlight-like ripples. Spreading across in all directions, the entire Xuan Yuan stage glistened with stars, as gorgeous as the resplendent star river.

Bai Liguang laughed. “That’s some skill. It seems that you are not a useless scumbag!”

As soon as the end of his words dropped, suddenly Bai Liguang’s expression froze. Raising both hands, he pulled a long spear into his hands. Holding it high above him, instantly like a dancing dragon, it carried a powerful immemorial presence. It seemed to have carried the imposing manner to tear apart the entire sky.

With one spear move, immediately the tip of the spear rolled a whistling whirlpool. When he swept across the star-like illusion, instantly a clear sky appeared. Once again, calmness was restored to the Xuan Yuan stage.

On the other side, it seemed as if the resplendent lights from the giant knife in Hu Qiurui’s hand had dimmed greatly. It let out a miserable and sorrowful cry.

During one exchange of moves, the relative superiority was determined between the two divine weapons.

Compared to the giant knife in Hu Qiurui’s hand, the giant spear in Bai Liguang’s hand showed majestic imposing manner. Gushing with proud presence, it appeared as if an immemorial barren beast slept for tens and thousands of years gave an awe-inspiring performance.

“Three moves, Hu Qiurui, if you can take three of my moves, I will admire you!” With boundless heroic spirit, Bai Liguang let out a roaring laugh. Without the least bit of flattery, his body formed perfect resonance with the giant spear. Shooting forward with astonishing speed and perfect curvy lines, he pointed the sharp and acute spear tip at the center of Hu Qiurui’s brow!
