Gate of God Chapter 391: Perform a striptease

Chapter 391: Perform a striptease
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
"The Returning Dragon?" The middle-aged man murmured to himself. The attack just now had exuded an aura so powerful he had never felt anything like it before.
But...
Why would such a powerful technique be named The Returning Dragon?
Returning?
Is it because it couldn't bear to leave? Or because it had unfinished business?
The middle-aged man could not understand it, but he did not think much about it.
Wu Ji, who was standing next to the middle-aged man, also could not understand it. Even the other candidates, the dozens of demon elites, the Dragon Protection Squad, and...
Virtually no one there knew why this technique was known as The Returning Dragon.
However, they did not spend too much time thinking about it. Their attention was drawn to a deep crack in the ground.
This crevice was beneath the feet of the middle-aged man.
As such, this could not have been the work of the middle-aged man. This was clearly done by Fang Zhengzhi. A single strike had caused a crevice over five yards long.
How ridiculous was that?
Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi's opponent was a Rebirth State Demon.
"The Returning Dragon?!"
All of the demon elites looked at each other in confusion. They had never heard of a technique known as The Returning Dragon.
This technique allows a Heavenly Reflection State human to go up against a Rebirth State Demon!
Is it the technique?
Or...
Is it the person?!
No one had any idea what the answer was. If it was the former, what a powerful technique this was... if it was the latter...
How could someone like that exist in this world?
Could someone like that still be termed as a talent?
No!
This was ungodly!
Nangong Hao stopped in his tracks as he raised his head, the rain pummeling his face. He did not think about why the technique was named The Returning Dragon. He was trying to recall what he saw.
The silver light from Bai Xing's finger disappeared as well. He instinctively turned to look at Yun Qingwu, who was standing atop the cliff.
He too saw the joy through Yun Qingwu's veil.
Why was she happy?
Bai Xing did not understand. However, he knew that if someone like that was allowed to live...
Could the demons still survive in the coming decades?
This was a teenager who could go up against a Rebirth State Demon. Even though it was just a single round, this human could not be allowed to live.
Furthermore, he had an unprecedented 388 Daos in his pocket dimension.
"No matter the cost!" Bai Xing did not wait for Yun Qingwu's orders. It wasn't because he doubted Yun Qingwu's decision.
However...
Regardless of what Yun Qingwu wanted, he had to do this for the future of the demons.
The middle-aged man's expression turned steely. He knew what Bai Xing wanted. In fact, he was thinking the same thing.
"Ah!" A cry of pain reverberated through the air.
Then, the entire ground shook. This was a terrifying wave of force, almost as though it had been suppressed for centuries just waiting to explode.
Everyone recovered instantly when they heard the piercing scream and the intense vibrations. Everyone was awed by what they saw.
"He... he is going to?!"
"Demon... he is a Rebirth State demon!"
All of the candidates could not believe their eyes. They knew what was happening. However, their disbelief stemmed from the fact that they knew what he was doing."
"Shi Kou, how... how dare you!" Yun Qingwu shouted from the cliff. She rarely spoke to humans or demons.
But this time, she shouted.
Furthermore...
Her tone was filled with fury.
All of the demon elites, as well as Bai Xing and Wu Ji, were all filled with shock and admiration as they saw what the middle-aged man was doing.
He bit his lip, his face contorting in pain. However, embedded deep within this pain was a sense of relieve.
This was Shi Kou.
The first Vice Domain Chief of the 10 demonic domains. He was a nascent Rebirth State Demon.
He only lived by one rule. The successful ruled, the ones who failed died.
He did not know if he had truly failed. However, he knew that once his sword had been shattered by a teenage Heavenly Reflection State human, he could not return to the demons.
This was a matter of pride.
The only way to preserve his dignity was to kill this human single-handedly.
Just as Bai Xing had said, no matter the cost.
The pale red demonic eye, representing a Rebirth State demon, turned black in that instant. It was like a black hole, and that meant that his demonic eye had been emptied.
At that moment, Shi Kou shot a ray of purple light that was stained with red into the sky.
...
"Not good!" Nangong Hao reacted almost instantly. With his heart cultivation, there were few things in this world which could make him flustered.
However, when he saw Shi Kou's demonic eye turn black...
He could predict what was about to happen.
"Nangong Hao, you cannot interfere! This is a battle that concerns Shi Kou's pride!" Bai Xing's fingers lit up once again as a ray of silver light shot towards Nangong Hao.
Wu Ji's blade also sprung into action. He did not point it at Fang Zhengzhi, choosing to turn on the Dragon Protection Squad. From the moment. Shi Kou decided to drain his demonic eye, Fang Zhengzhi was a dead man walking.
As such, he did not have to concern himself with Fang Zhengzhi.
His only job now was to...
Prevent anyone else from interfering in this battle.
Xing Qingsui clenched his fists. He knew what Shi Kou had done, but he was too far from Fang Zhengzhi. Even if he rushed over, he could not stop it.
The Dragon Protection Squad watched solemnly.
They were the elite soldiers of the Emperor. They were well decorated and honored in many ways. However, when they heard of Fang Zhengzhi's exploits, they realized that all their honors and achievements could not even hold a candle to this man.
He had conquered the Thunderous Lion Settlement with little fanfare.
Then, he commanded a 50,000 strong army to attack this city.
He had conquered most of the lands in the combat examinations, then broke the deadlock with Nangong Hao. With 50,000 soldiers as witnesses, he fought more than a dozen rounds with Nangong Hao despite being a whole cultivation state lower.
Most importantly...
With 'The Returning Dragon', he had shattered the sword of a Rebirth State Demon.
This was not just an achievement. This was a miracle. This man was a miracle that would be recorded in the history of the Great Xia Dynasty.
How could they let someone like this die?
"We must save Fang Zhengzhi, no matter the cost!" One of the members shouted.
As the Dragon Protection Squad, they only obeyed the orders of the Emperor. Even on this expedition, they only obeyed Nangong Hao, who was given special instructions by the Emperor.
In their entire history...
They had never done something without direct orders.
However, this time, even though Nangong Hao did not say anything, they had already made up their mind without hesitation.
The Dragon Protection Squad was formed from the disciples of the 13 Constabularies. They were all of noble blood and quite powerful. However, they were willing to sacrifice their lives to save this villager known as Fang Zhengzhi.
...
Fang Zhengzhi had thought that he was in a dream. However, he felt that the dream was becoming increasingly realistic. Not only could he see the expressions of those around him...
He could also hear their voices.
More importantly...
A Rebirth State demon had decided to play the "kamikaze" card.
He had seen this before.
In the World of the Sage, Ying Shan had been humiliated so badly that he lost control of his emotions and chose this destructive path...
But, what was wrong with Shi Kou?
Fang Zhengzhi had not said anything to agitate him. All he did was shatter his sword. Why would he resort to doing such a thing?
Hang on!
Why was it that his attack could shatter the blade of a Rebirth State demon?
Okay...
This is a dream, a dream that he was in control of.
In his dream, he could probably defeat a sage. If he wanted to, he could smash the swords and bodies of everyone in his way.
Fang Zhengzhi relaxed.
After all, he was the most powerful in his dream.
When he raised his head, he saw Yun Qingwu standing atop the cliff. He already knew that Yun Qingwu was the young master of the demons.
As such, he was not surprised to see demons beside Yun Qingwu.
However...
He had already seen Yun Qingwu's face before. Why was she still in a veil inside his dream?
Can't she be a little more liberal in his dream?
Since he was dreaming, he could think of anything. He was still a little too innocent. If he was more dirty minded, Yun Qingwu would already be doing a striptease in front of the soldiers.
"Hey, Yun Qingwu, perform a striptease for me!" Fang Zhengzhi shouted. After all, he thought that he was still in his own dream.
What was there that he could not say?
He pointed at Yun Qingwu, who still looked purple through his eyes. He wagged his finger and smirked.
The rain intensified. It washed the dirt off the armor of the soldiers, causing them to shine. The rattan armor of the Southern Region soldiers became heavier as they absorbed the water.
However...
They were no longer paying attention to the rain.
A single sentence echoed continuously in their minds.
"Yun Qingwu, perform a striptease for me!"
"Striptease?!"
"He asked Yun Qingwu to perform a striptease?!"
All of the soldiers could not believe their ears. They never expected that the first statement out of Fang Zhengzhi's mouth would be 'Die!'. Then, for his second statement to be...
"Perform a striptease?!"
All of the demon elites were stunned.
They had heard that Fang Zhengzhi was a maverick. However, no matter how unorthodox Fang Zhengzhi was, why would he say something like that?
To the demons, Yun Qingwu was their master. She was above all humiliation, someone who could not be touched.
Yet, Fang Zhengzhi, a human teenager...
He had just mocked their master in front of thousands of Great Xia and Southern Region soldiers!
It was pure, unadulterated humiliation!
Who could tolerate something like that?
"Kill him, kill him!"
All of the demon elites replied in unison. They did not care how ungodly Fang Zhengzhi was. All they wanted to do was tear him apart.
The Dragon Protection Squad stopped in their tracks.
They looked at Fang Zhengzhi. Just a moment ago, they were willing to lay down their lives to try and protect this teenager with unlimited potential.
But now, that determination wavered.
Even though the opponent was a demon, was someone who would say something so shameless really worth them laying down their lives for?
Yun Qingwu was stunned as well, her expression conflicted. However, she did not reply.
Because...
She really didn't know what to say.
"Fang Zhengzhi, go to hell!" Shi Kou's face contorted even more. He hated himself for not striking faster.
He hated himself for only thinking about sacrificing his own life to take Fang Zhengzhi's only after Fang Zhengzhi destroyed his sword.
If he had made that decision from the moment he saw Fang Zhengzhi, then none of this would have happened.
Fang Zhengzhi...
The audacious teen who dared to humiliate the master of the demons.
There was only one fate for someone like him. Death. Regardless of the price he had to pay, Shi Kou would ensure that Fang Zhengzhi died.
Shi Kou knew this very well.
He was not the only demon who thought that way.
As such, how could Fang Zhengzhi live through this?
A single slap...
The purple light shone radiantly. This slap was filled with rage and contained all the energy Shi Kou could muster. His only thought was to kill this audacious maverick with this attack!
