I Just Want to Live Peacefully
Chapter 74: The Power of the Empress
Jiang Ming felt like he had learned something new today.
The two men beside him were his enemies, and they were stronger than him. If each of them knew the true situation, they would kill him without hesitation. However, they spoke happily and even gave him a gift.
There were several geniuses with ten-star innate talents at the Reception Peak. Some of them were Eternal Fetuses as well.
Jiang Ming originally thought he would have to wait at least 100 years before he could see such a scene. However, it was happening before him now.
Jiang Ming even had the urge to see what would happen if he killed everyone here.
Of course, it was just evil thoughts that messed up his brain.
“It will start soon!” Old Tie stood up and looked towards Reception Peak. “It's so much fun!”
“It's understandable. After all, you won't be able to see something like this in 100 years, ” Qing Fengzi said as he nodded.
The fight between geniuses was not about who was stronger, but also about who was luckier.
“It's a shame you're too weak.” Old Tie shook his head after he saw Jiang Ming. “For us, they are just our juniors. But for you, you may not even be able to see their movements. ”
“It's okay. I am here just for the show,” Jiang Ming replied with a smile.
Meanwhile, at the peak next to Reception Peak…
There's a dozen people there. They were all top martial artists in the Jiuyang Sect. Even Gu Hai was there as well.
“I just realized how weak our students are after seeing them!” Yin Yue wailed. “I can feel that those young people can defeat me, not to mention those Holy Sons and Holy Daughters.”
“Yes, they are geniuses from Zhong Province and Eastern Region.” Gu Hai smiled. “In addition, Linglong is not weaker than them.”
“You're right. Given the conditions and resources of our Jiuyang Sect, it is fortunate that we were able to have an incredible genius.” Yin Yue smiled. “See there. Do you know the two people at that Chuyang Peak?”
“No, I don't know them,” Gu Hai replied as he shook his head. Then, he frowned and continued. “Although nothing seems to have changed at Chuyang Peak, it was guarded by a formation. The fact that they could come here without any problem showed that they were martial artists outside of the Primal Spirit Realm. ”
“Are you not going back to check it out?”
“No. Of course not. I assumed they were here to watch the battle between geniuses, so it would be bad if I came back and interrupted them. If they harbored malicious intent, there was nothing I could do even if I went there. ”
“Yeah, I think you're right.”
The two ended their conversation and looked towards Reception Peak.
The atmosphere there became more lively.
“Today, not only are all the geniuses from Zhong Province and the Eastern Region gathered here, but Senior Brother is also here with us. It brought this self-organized meeting to a higher level, and it could be called a battle between Proud Children!” said a blue-robed young man.
After he greeted the crowd, he went to Zi Linglong and continued. “I will do the honor and start the first battle! I, Tan Hao from Zhong Province, challenge Zi Linglong to battle!”
“So, what's your bet?” Zi Linglong said clearly.
“Betaruh?” Tan Hao was stunned for a moment before saying seriously, “The purpose of this event is to improve our skills, as well as to exchange experiences regarding our cultivation methods. It will be remembered for centuries. Don't you think it's a little inappropriate to talk about betting at a grand event like this?”
Zi Linglong raised his head and glanced at the man. Then, he said, “I've never enjoyed fighting. However, each of you came to Jiuyang Sect and challenged me to battle. The Jiuyang Sect does not dare to fight you because of your background, so I have no other choice but to stop my cultivation and accept your challenge. If you want to fight me, I have conditions. If you accept it, then I'll fight you. If you refuse to accept it, shut up and sit down!”
He paused for a moment and added, “Sekte Jiuyang has nothing better to offer than the Sun Stone. All I need is an extreme Yin object, and I have already written it down on the stone tablet!”
He closed his eyes after saying that.
Tan Hao's face was drowned. Some people's faces were furious, while others laughed.
Tian Ci took a step forward and said softly, “Young Linglong Sister, this is a big event between geniuses. Each of us here has mastered our own cultivation method. Moreover, it is a great opportunity for us to share knowledge and grow together, so why should we sacrifice the big ones for the small ones?”
Zi Linglong said without opening his eyes, “If that's all you want, then go somewhere else.”
“How dare you!” Tan Hao shouted, “How dare you speak like that to my eldest brother?”
Mendeering!
He stretched out his hand, and a sword appeared in his hand. At that moment, the ground shook, and the aura around it changed. He seemed to have become one with the Reception Peak, and he could draw strength from the ground around him.
“He's your eldest brother, not mine,” Zi Linglong said as he opened his eyes. His gaze was as sharp as light, and he said, “If you don't accept bets, then get lost!”
“I'll kill you today!” Tan Hao attacked Zi Linglong.
Among the crowd, apart from Xi Yao, the Holy Princess of the Riyue Sect, or the Envoy Son of the Yantian Sect, even Mo Lin, the Holy Son of the Yinmo Sect, remained silent. They had no intention of stopping Tan Hao.
“Why should we fight each other?” Tian Ci sighed.
Lin Han, the Holy Son of the Qingyun Sect, glanced at him coldly and grinned.
Pfft!
Meanwhile, Zi Linglong summoned a red sword into his hand. He destroyed Tan Hao's sword energy in an instant, and his sword energy continued to move forward until it cut off his opponent's left arm.
After which, he gave a palm strike at her and sent her flying.
“As a host, I will spare his life this time. However, if there are others who act like him, I will not show mercy to them!” Zi Linglong stabbed his sword beside him and looked around at the people. “If you disagree with my condition, then go!”
After that, he closed his eyes again.
Suddenly, Tan Hao's angry voice sounded from a distance. “How dare you cut off my arm, Zi Linglong!? I'll kill you!”
He was furious, and his killing intent was so thick that the sky around him had changed.
Holy hooch!
Zi Linglong appeared right before him without giving him time to react. He looked at her coldly and destroyed Tan Hao's special ability in a single strike. He then conjured an invisible rope to ensnare Tan Hao with the power of the universe.
Mendeering!
His sword energy was shining. Carrying a power that could split the sky, he slashed at Tan Hao, cutting him in half.
After that, he turned around and left.
A moment later, a beam of light shot out from Tan Hao's stiff body. His body split into two, and he fell to the ground below.
Tan Hao is dead.
It happened so fast that Tian Ci was still unable to come to his senses even after Tan Hao died.
Zi Linglong returned to his seat and thrust his sword into the ground beside him.
‘I remember well, Tan Hao is a descendant of a second-rate family in Zhong Province. The strongest of his family was in the Primal Spirit Realm, yet he dared to act like here. He deserves to die!’ he thinks.
No one cared about Tan Hao's death.
“Good, Linglong,” Xi Yao walked across the air with a smile. The stars shone all around her which made her look very beautiful.
He waved his hand, and the Moon Cloud Flower appeared before him. He gave it to Zi Linglong and said, “Although this flower is not an extreme Yin object, it is still a rare Yin spiritual item. I'm not using it anymore, so I'm giving it to you as a gift. ”
Zi Linglong looked at the Moon Cloud Flower in front of him and then turned to Xi Yao. A smile rose on his face as he said, “Thank you, Senior Brother. After you!”
He grabbed the sword with his hand and flew into the sky.
“By pleasure!” Xi Yan followed after Zi Linglong..
