Chapter 1080 “Elder Jun’s Death (10)”
In the endless sky, more than two dozen figures stands floating there against the bristling breeze. Their eyes are sharp and menacing as they stared down at the defenders of this Holy Land.
“He’s a Middle Divine!” Tsing Yi’s complexion changed greatly upon recognizing the power of the leader.
“What is a Middle Divine?” Bai Chang Feng turns around and asks the dragoness with a furrowed forehead.
“Take you all for example. Since you only recently broke into the Celestial Rank, you would be considered Bottom Divine, then there are the Middle Divine, High Divine, Demi Divine Lords, Divine Lords and True Celestials afterwards in that order.”
Bai Chang Feng and his peers were all stunned by this news. They did not expect there to be so many variations within a single rank which was nonexistent in the previous levels prior. Furthermore, how are they supposed to fight someone that’s a whole tier higher than themselves?
“So it’s you insects down there who killed my boy?” He Fei Xiang glares down at the group below on the ground, his eyes slowly narrowing into a sharp slit that could shoot daggers if he tried.
Little Rice was the first to step forward: “I am the one who killed your son, what about it? That bastard dared to cross my mistress and her family, he deserves to die!”
Boom!
Exploding with power, He Fei Xiang completely releases his aura to press down at the tiger. As a result of this feat, Little Rice nearly crumbled into the dirt due to the mountainous pressure. Despite his bones being nearly crushed and making a creaking sound, the stubborn tiger didn’t relent and forcefully pushed himself back up through gritted teeth.
“Little Rice!” Going white from this, Tsing Yi exclaims and hurried over to her companion’s side to help support him. Then with fierceness in her own eyes, glares right back up to the Spirit Lord in retaliation.
“Humph!” He Fei Xiang huffs a grunt upon seeing the resistance, “What wrong did my son do? You insects took his life and is still unrepenting, now I will make you all pay for his death!”
But surprisingly enough, having this many Celestial Rank cultivators gathered in one place did catch the Spirit Lord off guard. Now it made sense on why his son would perish during the first assault.
It looks like I really did underestimate these people. If I had known there are so many variables involved, I never would’ve sent him along.
“Your son killed so many innocent people, and he wanted to slaughter the entire continent of its occupants, you’re telling me that’s not wrong?” Tsing Yi snickers a laugh of irony at the man’s logic.
“Hahaha!” The Spirit Lord went mad with laughter at that rebute, allowing his echoing voice to spread across the entire Holy Land. “Nothing but a bunch of insects, as if their lives are comparable to my son’s life? He came at my order; he did no wrong! On the contrary, you bunch here are unforgivable!”
How dare they compare my boy’s value to themselves? He’s hundreds if not thousands of times more important!
“Spirit Lord,” one of the old elderly attackers spoke up then, “I get the sense that they’re trying to stall for time. We shouldn’t waste anymore effort with their nonsense so let’s just kill them.”
He Fei Xiang nods with indifference at the idea, his bloodshot eyes sweeping through the group beneath. “Today this world will know my wrath! I will use the blood of all your lives to honor my son!”
Lord Chu Ran of the Holy Land knew a battle was inevitable at this point. Taking a deep breath, he draws his long sword and charged for the group of attackers that’s also moving for his position after they got permission to begin.
