Chapter 1206: Grand Duel
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
As a Saint in the Heaven Pass Realm, the Blue Dragon Emperor was very confident in killing Gu Linfeng. As long as he was given the chance, he would definitely turn Gu Linfeng to ashes.
The Hierarch Madame nodded, allowing him.
“Thank you, Master.”
A menacing smile flashed past the Blue Dragon Emperor’s eyes. He rushed out like wind, transforming into a long blue dragon. He landed on a mountain near Zhang Ruochen.
Powerful Holy Qi radiated from him. Each shred turned into a dragon’s shadow. It was like he was surrounded by thousands of dragons and had unbeatable might.
“Gu Linfeng, where’s Mo Yin?” he thundered.
Zhang Ruochen stood between the Blue Dragon Emperor and Yao Sheng. Facing these two mighty Saints, he didn’t show any fear. He just smiled. “She died, of course.”
“How dare you!”
The Blue Dragon Emperor had already predicted this, but after confirming it, he was still furious. Clenching his fists, his arms crackled and popped.
The Saints of the Blood God Sect all sighed. Gu Linfeng’s talent could’ve led the sect to a golden age, but he was going to die today. The Blood God Sect’s last hope would be killed too.
Elder Yuan Xing and Yuan Zhou entered an intense battle. They wanted to break through the obstacles to save Gu Linfeng. However, Lan Caiye didn’t give them the chance. He attacked with two Thousand-pattern Saint Weapons, starting two bursts of Destruction of the Thousand Pattern. They pressed down above the two Saint Elders.
The two Thousand-pattern Saint Weapons were a water dragon and fire dragon pearl. They hovered in the air like a blue and red star, radiating with icy and fiery energy.
Elder Yuan Xing and Yuan Zhou were both gravely hurt. They could only defend with all their might to fend off the destructive water and fire dragon pearls.
“Hierarch Madame, please spare the Deity,” Elder Yuan Xing said, spitting out blood. “I am willing to submit to you.”
He was clear that, as long as Gu Linfeng could leave, he could fight back to the Blood God Sect after completing his cultivation. Even if the sect was invaded by the Immortal Vampires, he could still drive them out and continue developing the heritage of the sect.
Elder Yuan Zhou raised both hands to push off the Destruction of the Thousand Pattern from the water dragon pearl. His entire body shook. “As long as you let the Deity go, I am willing to submit.”
The Hierarch Madame’s eyes were calm. “Kill Gu Linfeng to cut out future threats.”
Clearly, she thought that Gu Linfeng was a huge threat. Since she couldn’t make him work for her, she had to take him out.
“Gu Linfeng, no one can save you today! Die! Haha!”
The Blue Emperor Dragon laughed loudly. He slammed the ground with both hands. Two bursts of blue energy flooded out. It ripped the ground apart and a crack extended toward Zhang Ruochen.
Even the earth was separated. One could imagine just how powerful the bursts of energy were.
Yao Sheng shook his head. Faced with a Heaven Pass Realm Saint, even he would find it hard to escape, let alone Gu Linfeng.
Thinking of this, Yao Sheng immediately used a physical technique to retreat and avoid being hurt accidentally.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t hide. Instead, he lifted his head and looked up in the air. “What exactly is old Chu doing?” he muttered. “Why isn’t he fighting yet? Is he going to wait until the last moment to show up?”
With Chu Siyuan’s personality, he might really be waiting for the chance for everyone’s eyes to be on him. After all, he was the leader of the Art Sect—a top-tier figure. How could he come out so easily? How could he express his importance?
When the crack was only 30 feet from Zhang Ruochen, purple light appeared in the sky. It fell down and landed between Zhang Ruochen and the Blue Dragon Emperor, transforming into a middle-aged man in official clothing.
It was Yue Shuzi, the administrator of the Tiantai State.
With a boom, the torn earth was mended. Hit by an invisible force, the Blue Dragon Emperor let out a grunt. Losing balance, he took dozens of steps back.
“It’s…him.”
“The mountain gate is closed and the defensive formation is already activated. How did Yue Shuzi come in? Did the imperial court’s army already invade us?”
The Saints of the Blood God Sect were all discussing this, wondering what had happened.
They all knew Yue Shuzi, but the Blue Dragon Emperor didn’t.
“Who is this?”
He felt terrifying saintly might on Yue Shuzi. It was psychological pressure.
Yue Shuzi didn’t reply to him. He just hmphed. “You have the aura of the Blue Dragon Void World and have such advanced cultivation. You must be the Blue Dragon Emperor.”
“You have good eyesight. I am indeed the Blue Dragon Emperor.”
He knew that Yue Shuzi was powerful, but he had the Hierarch Madame behind him. He didn’t fear anyone. Plus, with his Heaven Pass Realm cultivation, he could look down on all the Saints in the world.
“No matter who you are, you can only die for working for the Immortal Vampires.”
Yue Shuzi extended his right hand. His fingers formed a print technique. Four lines of light emerged from his fingertips and sketched a picture of a black skeleton.
The skeleton walked out of the art scroll. It reached out a 70-meter-long bony arm to hit the Blue Dragon Emperor’s head.
Poof.
The Blue Dragon Emperor’s chest was penetrated by a bony finger. Saintly blood flowed out, but his cultivation was advanced enough to forcefully break free.
With a whoosh, a bronze crescent broadsword flew out of his Sea of Qi. He poured all his Holy Qi into the sword.
The bronze broadsword was like a dark and cold moon. It radiated with sharp broadsword Qi. It hacked down and shattered the black skeleton with a thud.
The Blue Dragon Emperor attacked a second time at Yue Shuzi.
Seeing the incoming bronze broadsword, Yue Shuzi didn’t show any fear. He just said two words: “Flower bloom.”
A white lotus solidified out of nothing before him. It shone with eye-catching saintly light and clashed with the sword.
Kaboom!
The Blue Dragon Emperor flew backward. The bloody hole in his chest expanded quickly and spread through his body. His entire body was going to be ripped apart. White bones showed in some parts.
The white lotus was just too powerful, so much so that even the Blue Dragon Emperor lost his combat ability.
Before he could land on the ground, Yue Shuzi attacked again. He pointed forward and a beam of light flew out of his fingertip. It hit the Blue Dragon Emperor’s head. With a boom, half of the Blue Dragon Emperor’s body exploded. Only the remnants of his corpse fell to the ground.
All the cultivators in the area fell silent. They stared at Yue Shuzi in fear. Just how terrifying was his cultivation to be able to kill a Heaven Pass Realm Saint so easily?
Lan Caiye, Elder Yuan Xing, and Elder Yuan Zhou stopped fighting. Even Zuo Mu, sub-leader of the Nether Heavenly Palace, was beaten into a pile of mush by Zhu Hongtao.
As another lord from the Tiantai State, Lan Caiye was clear about Yue Shuzi’s abilities. His brows creased. “This is the Blood God Sect’s inner conflict. It’s not suitable for the imperial court to get involved!”
Yue Shuzi smiled. “I was invited by the Deity to come to the Blood God Sect. I heard people here are working for the Immortal Vampires. The imperial court has no choice but to come clear them out.”
Lan Caiye looked at Zhang Ruochen, eyes flashing coldly. This guy really did invite helpers.
He could even invite Yue Shuzi. Lan Caiye had really underestimated him.
Lan Caiye knew that he wasn’t Yue Shuzi’s opponent, so he looked toward the Hierarch madame.
However, her attention wasn’t on Yue Shuzi. She raised her pretty face and her spirited eyes looked at the clouds in the sky. Smiling beautifully, she said, “We’re old friends. Since you’ve already come to Mo You Valley, why don’t you show yourself?”
Everyone was confused. They wanted to know who the Hierarch Madame was speaking to. Had another strong cultivator arrived at the Blood God Sect?
Stepping on a cloud of purple Qi, Chu Siyuan flew out of the clouds like an ethereal being. He stopped 100 feet from the ground and looked down. “The talented Blood God Sect Saintess from before is as young and beautiful as before. I am so envious.”
“The Art Master, one of the four masters of the Confucius Way, was once handsome. After hundreds of years, you’ve become so old.”
The Hierarch Madame shook her head softly, a mesmerizing smile hanging on her face.
Chu Siyuan’s mind wavered. He seemed to have been dragged back to centuries ago. The current Hierarch Madame was identical to the Blood God Sect Saintess from before. She hadn’t changed at all.
Chu Siyuan quickly awoke with a start, cold sweat forming. Her Spiritual Power…he thought. She can affect me… How is this possible…
After all, the Hierarch Madame focused on martial arts, and then Spiritual Power. On the other hand, Chu Siyuan only cultivated Spiritual Power and nothing else.
Under these circumstances, the Hierarch madame could still use Spiritual Power to affect him. This was a bit frightening.
Chu Siyuan’s eyes turned extremely serious. “Madame, you’ve been cultivating in seclusion in Mo You Valley these years. You’ve really reached an incredible state and even I can’t guess the level!”
The Hierarch Madame smiled. “To be honest, you shouldn’t have come. There aren’t many cultivators of our generation still alive. The number decreases with each death. Cultivation isn’t easy. I advise you to leave and avoid the turbid waters.”
Chu Siyuan straightened his back. “Back then, I faced the Deities of the seven ancient sects without even furrowing my brows. Even more, I cannot back away today. Let us fight. Since we’ve already gone opposite each other, we must produce a life and death.”
