Against The Gods
Chapter 75 – Xiao Luocheng
Lu Zhannan rose from the floor battered and exhausted; her skin was pale white and the hole had already burned the clothes on her chest, revealing her almost pitch-black skin. Under the protection of his profound energy, Yun Che's flame actually did not injure him severely; however, the pain inflicted by the blazing flames within his body was enough to make him remember him for life, after all, and also imprinted a deep scar in the depths of his heart. At this moment, his gaze towards Yun Che was filled with horror. He lowered his head, dragged his sword, and walked back to the Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion without a word.
He knew that today, he had truly become the "springboard" that Yun Che spoke of. Thinking back now, the various taunts and insults he had towards Yun Che earlier were like a pile of jokes he had hit on his own face.
"Lu Zhannan ... actually .. missing !!"
"How terrible! What kind of power did Lu Zhannan have? Even he was defeated by Yun Che! "
"Sixteen years old .. A first soldier of Nascent Profound, yet his profound strength was so deep and thick; his movement skills were even more bizarre and immeasurable. Moreover, he still knew such a high-attribute fire art! The fire attribute profound art that he had displayed just now, seemed to be different from the Cloudy Sun Sect and the Burning Heaven Clan, yet his level was so high that it was terrifying! "
“This kind of talent, although it cannot be matched with Xiao LuoCheng, the difference is not too far either! Perhaps, it was enough to be on par with Fen Ziluan from the Burning Heaven Clan! Among the younger generation in New Moon City, his talent was enough to enter the top five .. No, top three! "
From the disciples to the elders, everyone in the Seven Deadly Swords Pavilion had all lost their spirit, as they were the ones who understood Lu Zhannan's abilities the most; but with a power like his, it was his, he was completely defeated by the 16-year-old disciple of the New Moon Profound Palace. This kind of spiritual impact was too great, so great that they could not believe the reality of what they saw.
Xuan Yu, Yan Ming, and Feng Guangyi, who had previously been defeated by Yun Che stared even longer, as their throats dried up, every single one of them refused to accept it in their hearts; but now, they clearly understood that their loss was far from unjustifiable! When Yun Che fought them, he obviously did not release all of his strength; perhaps he did not even use half of his actual strength! Otherwise, their loss would be faster and more tragic. Thinking back now, their arrogance in front of Yun Che earlier ..just like a stupid puppy barking furiously at a lion lion.
"This kind of talent is extremely rare even in the seven sects with their strong and sturdy heritage, and such disciples suddenly appear in our New Moon Profound Palace! Perhaps, this New Moon Profound Palace that had been silent for all these years could rise because of him. “Sikong Han spoke while sighing emotionally.
The two elders beside him also slowly nodded their heads, and strongly agreed with him.
It does not mean that talents are over-needed, nor will they ever appear in surplus. Being able to have one was enough to bring prestige to one's family. And with the New Moon Profound Palace being the only Profound Palace established in New Moon City by the imperial family, the heavens knew how many years it had been since the genius geniuses could be compared to the seven sects ' talent has emerged. This was also the main reason why New Moon Profound Palace had always been unable to raise their heads in front of the seven sects. And this "curse" might be broken starting with the appearance of Yun Che! It's broken! This time, solely because of Yun Che, the New Moon Profound Palace finally stood up proudly and blew their steam at the seven sects who had come to show off their strength. It also made the disciples of the seven sects stare, no longer containing pride and contempt when they first entered the Main Palace.
Meanwhile, the disciples of New Moon Profound Palace were still all in shock. Facing the powerful Lu Zhannan, Yun Che, who was only sixteen years old had won once again! The shock they received brought by this result was indescribable with words. A first soldier in the Nascent Profound Realm defeated a seventh ranker in the Nascent Profound Realm; what terrifying talent must one possess to achieve this! This was also the first time they knew that a first soldier in the Nascent Profound Realm could actually achieve such terrifying strength! Round after round, almost every game was a victory that far exceeded their predictions; it was as if they were inside a dream.
“I always thought my talent was already considered to be genius level, but compared to Junior Brother Yun...*Sigh*That's not even worth looking at. '' Inside the seats, several New Moon Profound Palace disciples sighed to themselves. To be able to attend this banquet today, no doubt they were the most elite disciples in the New Moon Profound Palace, and would naturally have some pride in their hearts. Yet after witnessing five consecutive Yun Che battles, the pride in their hearts vanished without a trace; their hearts were filled with respect and admiration for the junior brother who had just joined this Great Palace.
"Is this ... really my brother-in-law ..." It is unknown how many hundred times Xia Yuanba muttered this, his eyes staring wide open from beginning to end.
He and Junior Brother Yun were also from the same Floating Cloud City located in the east. In that place, there would naturally be no high-class resources; and under such conditions, Young Brother Yun could actually reach such a realm. If he was born in a big sect, his achievements now would definitely be more universally shocking.
She ... Isn't she the person I've been looking for all this time! (TL: Hook, Line, and Sinker!)
As she thought about this, Lan Xueruo's charming eyes were in a great mess and released a very touching light. His gaze towards Yun Che also changed abruptly. Yun Che had obviously consumed a large amount of energy after five consecutive battles; although he did not seem to be bothered outside, his forehead was already filled with sweat grains and his breathing had also clearly become hurried. On his left arm, the bloody wound was a terrifying sight to behold, and the blood flowing out had already dyed half of his sleeves red red.
Lan Xueruo immediately stood up; she took out all kinds of ointments she carried, walked quickly to Yun Che's side, and asked with concern: "Junior Brother Yun, your arm is injured, how severe is the wound?"
Yun Che smiled and replied: "It's okay, just scratches that don't reach the bones. Next, it stopped bleeding. I thank Senior Sister for her concern. ”
“Stop acting tough, come on, let Senior Brother check it out. "Lan Xueruo reached out her jade hand and raised Yun Che's arm carefully as she inspected the wound. After which, his face revealed an expression of astonishment. Although the wound on Yun Che's arm was very deep, but as he said, it had indeed not reached his bones. There was no denying it was a slash from Lu Zhannan, yet it only caused this kind of wound that could only be considered a small wound!
Not to mention the first level of the Nascent Profound realm, even if a similar person at the seventh level of the Profound Profound Realm received an attack from Lu Zhannan, they would definitely not only receive such a minor injury! As the first soldier of the Nascent Profound Realm, how could it be possible for him to have such a powerful protection profound energy.
Lan Xueruo laughed gently, “How is your body made of iron when you look so white and soft? You look more like a standard boy toy. ”
"Eh ... boys toys?" Yun Che raised his eyebrows for a moment, then he looked at Lan Xueruo's snow-white face and happily laughed: "Only men are kept and provided by a beautician who can be called a boy toy, and I don't even have a beauty to provide for me... How about, Senior Brother take care of me? ”
"Pff .. Your mouth must be naughty. "A laugh came out from Lan Xueruo as she rolled her eyes at him:" I'm still your older sister, okay. If you dare to tease me further, be careful of Senior Sister spreading the word about your marriage. You won't even be able to fool a single girl after that. ”
Yun Che's expression immediately became sullen. (TL: The author says his face looks like ⁇ )
Seeing Lan Xueruo take the initiative to approach Yun Che to show his concern, and furthermore, while chatting and laughing together, the two seemed to even show a hint of temptation … Murong Ye's face turned green in an instant, his teeth almost broke in pieces from grinding. He and Lan Xueruo were openly known as the golden couple of the New Moon Profound Palace. It only takes one more step before they become the pair known to the masses. However, he clearly knew how difficult this move was; at the very least, Lan Xueruo had never treated him the way she currently treated Yun Che.
"That damn shit!" Murong Ye's gaze suddenly became even more sinister.
As if he felt a gaze filled with jealousy and hatred, Yun Che's head slightly turned towards Murong Ye; the corner of his lips curved into a not-so-obtrusive curve.
*Clap! Clap it! Clap it! Clap it!*
At this moment, a sharp and clear clapping sound rang out in the Main Palace, and caused everyone to look towards the origin of the sound. The person clapping was already slowly standing up from their chair.
"Great! Really awesome comparison! I originally came as a substitute for my father to congratulate Palace Master Qin, but suddenly, I was able to enjoy one brilliant battle between a tiger and a dragon. I was even more fortunate to see another brilliant star appear in our New Moon City. ”
While the young man started talking, he also walked towards Yun Che as he smiled merrily from ear to ear. He looked very young, and had the appearance of sixteen or seventeen. However, there were no signs of immaturity on his face; instead, he carried a noble and haughty aura. His voice was clear and gentle, yet it carried a pressure that left people suffocating.
When they saw the young man slowly walking out, the palace immediately became silent.
Xiao Luocheng !!
The undeniable number one young generation in New Moon City!
When Xiao Luocheng walked over to the Main Palace, all gazes were focused on him. However, after that, not many people paid attention to him; even when Yun Che declared war on all sixteen years of the seven sects and none of the seven sects responded, no one thought about it at all .. This was because the level Xiao Luocheng was at was already far beyond this small New Moon City; his frightening talent was not something that the New Moon City disciples or the seven sects could compare to. Tie Hengjun entered the fourth level of the Nascent Profound Realm at the age of seventeen, Lu Zhannan entered the seventh level of the nascent Profound Realm at the age of eighteen; they were all famous and prominent geniuses in New Moon City.
Yet Xiao Luocheng .. At the age of sixteen, was at the tenth level of the Nascent Profound Realm!
Xiao Luocheng had never participated in a battle between the young disciples of the New Moon City sect; because in the younger generation of New Moon City, no one was qualified to be his opponent, either, and no one was worthy of him to show his strength as well.
Even though he was the young sect master of the Xiao Sect Branch Sect located in New Moon City, everyone knew that once he reached the age of twenty, it was unthinkable for him to remain in New Moon City; instead he would return to the main headquarters of the Xiao Sect. With his fearsome talent, he would be in quite a high position even within the main sect. Main Sect Xiao Sect; it was a giant that New Moon City did not even have the right to look at! It was a huge sect that even the Blue Wind Imperial Family had to curry favor with. That was where Xiao Luocheng should be; for New Moon City was unable to contain this extraordinary genius known as Xiao Luocheng.
Yet now, not only had Xiao Luocheng personally ascended, he had even walked towards Yun Che.
Everyone's heart started to beat. Could it be, he would …
