Ling Tian's
Before the Final Fight
Taps!
"Brother.." someone patted Xuan Ji on the bowed shoulder.
"Yi Shu.." said Xuan Ji weakly. There was no hint of resentment in his words. Because he knew that Yi Shu had previously only provoked him as a winning strategy only.
Yi Shu simply smiled and opened his hands to Xuan Ji and asked him to stand up. Xuan Ji grabbed him and stood up with his face that could already smile back.
"Congratulations on your victory brother Shu! You are indeed the smartest person I have ever met!" said Xuan Ji.
"Haha.. Nah! I only played a few tricks for my luck! The rest I leave to fate and the abilities I have!" yi Shu replied lowly.
.
.
Ling Tian who saw the mature nature of the two tournament participants could not help but smile. The Xuan Clan was a subordinate clan of his Ling Clan, while the Yi Clan was a brother clan for once helping him from the pursuit of the Lang Clan Elders while he was still very weak.
It would be great if the two clans supported each other. Within Ling Tian's brain was also already devised some things he would do.
"alright.. The next battle for champions three and one will be held three hours from now! The participants are expected to recuperate as much as possible!" shouted Ling Tian who then disappeared from everyone's hands and became thin air.
.
.
Xuan Ji and Yi Shu returned to the participant's seat to recuperate. Arriving on the spot, Xuan Ji and Yi Shu could see Ling Lianhua sitting down meditating to recover strength and Hong Lie was like that as well.
Hong Lie had already regained his senses the moment after getting intensive treatment from some of the Ling Clan Elders who were quite skilled in terms of medicine.
Sensing that two auras were approaching, Hong Lie immediately opened his eyes slowly and looked at Xuan Ji and Yi Shu who were already standing in front of him.
"Are you better?" asked Xuan Ji.
"Haha.. Pretty little sister! At least later I will be able to pop your ass again when our match will be fought for the third champion.
"Curtain! You're this! I'm dying but still joking!" lament Xuan Ji. He knew very well the deep wounds inflicted by his brother. It would take at least a few days or even a whole week for him to recuperate.
"Haha.." Hong Lie only responded with an awkward laugh.
***
Somewhere around it there was only the rubble of destroyed buildings and decaying corpses, some black-clothed figures discussing something.
"Hows it? Is there already a bright spot who destroyed a sect as big as the Devil Fangs in this weak eastern land?" ask a black-clothed man with a very strong and visible aura.
"Mr Han Sio! From the results of the investigation conducted by the team and supported by one student who survived this incident, the culprit was three very strong people and one great dragon in blue!" replied the black-clothed male subordinate.
"N-great Dragon?" asked the man dressed in black stammering.
"That's right, Mr. Han Sio! The incident also happened the moment after the two intruders that the Demon Taring Sect had sent for the palace of the Wei Empire were killed! From such an odd thing like this, then we the investigation team can only conclude that the Founding Ancestor of the Wei Clan and the two others are the culprit!" said the black-clothed man's subordinate.
"L-ancestor P-founder of the Wei Clan?" asked the black-clothed man with a trembling tone of fear. He certainly knew very well about the matter of the extremely powerful Ancestral Founder of the Wei Clan. He also got instructions from the center not to offend the first Wei Clan that had that mysterious and strongest Ancestor.
"True Mr. Sio! Because only the Founding Ancestor of the Wei Clan alone had dragon mounts in this entire Sky Continent!" replied the black-clothed male subordinate.
"And again." continued the subordinate but cut off his words.
"The young man who was with the Founding Ancestor was also the one who had destroyed the Black Tiger Sect in Zhongjian City!" answer the subordinate.
"Whata! Goddamnit! Have you investigated who that young man is?" asked the man dressed in black in a grim tone.
"Of course it's Mr Han Sio! That young man was a person from a small clan on the outskirts of Cloud City, the Ling Clan!" answer the subordinate.
"Bajing*n! How could a young man from a small clan be together with the Founding Ancestor of the Wei Clan? Could he be his student?" the man in black was wondering.
"It might just be Mr. Han Sio!" said the subordinate.
"Then, what kind of realm is that young man currently in?"
"We do not know for sure, sir. Only, he could already fly above the sky! It signified that he had already stepped on the Gold Swordsman realm. Not to mention that he could defeat the Black Tiger Sect which had a level 6 Beast protector. That means, we are taking the conclusion he is already in the realm of Intermediate Platinum Swordsman!" said the subordinate and gave his conjecture.
The man in black clothes understood. If it was true that the young man referred to by his subordinates was really in the realm of the Intermediate Platinum Swordsman, then it meant that the young man was in the same realm as him. It would be quite troublesome if you had to fight one on one.
"alright.. You guys stay focused and keep an eye on that young man from the Ling Clan! Deliver whatever you get through the connective jade!" said the man dressed in black.
"Okay Sir!" also the subordinate.
"Oiya, don't ever mention it first! We don't know exactly how strong that young man is! Better investigate first the Ling Clan and its people!" said the man dressed in black.
"Riap Mr Han Sio! By the way, currently in the Ling Clan being held an inter-clan tournament, does Lord Han Sio not want to visit him? Moreover, according to the news heard, Emperor Heian and his daughter Wei Ziin also attended!" said the subordinate.
"Oohs.. Even His Highness Emperor Wei Heian also attended the event in the Ling Clan? It seems like the Ling Clan is not as simple as it seems!" said Han Sio.
"Truly Sir!"
"alright.. I will take a look at what kind of small Clan that is capable of making Emperor Heian visit him!"
***
Ling Clan.
Within the Ling Clan, the three hours that Ling Tian had said had already been missed. Ling Tian again emerged from the thin air above the arena.
"Girls! The show is back! The two participants who previously lost the match are welcome to ride the arena!" ling Tian said using his Qi energy so that it could be heard by all the spectators.
Getting an order from Ling Tian, the two participants or rather Xuan Ji and Hong Lie immediately climbed up the arena quietly.
"alright.. You will fight for third position! Are you two ready?" asked Ling Tian.
"Anu.. Sorry Young Master Ling! Emm.. Can we make an offer? We've decided not to fight except to bet on luck alone!" hong Lie said in an unpleasant tone.
"That means risking luck?" Ling Tian raised his eyebrows. Everyone does the same.
"Ekhem.. We just want to suwit to determine who becomes champion three!" xuan Ji replied with an unpleasant face anyway.
"Whataaa!"
