Chapter 1581: You Talk Too Much
The person who had suddenly appeared was none other than Xiang Shaoyun. Xiang Shaoyun had long noticed the fight as well, but there were rules in the arena. Before any of the combatants admitted defeat, nobody could get involved in a match. Thus, he had been watching silently as Tang Longfei received a beating. Inwardly, he was seething with anger.
Tang Longfei had tried to surrender, but his opponent had sealed his mouth and broken his four limbs before allowing him to surrender. His opponent clearly harbored bad intentions toward Tang Longfei. The Overlord Legion members were overjoyed at the sight of Xiang Shaoyun.
“The overlord is here! This is great! That arrogant bastard must be taught a lesson!”
“That’s right. He dares to harass even Big Brother Tang’s woman. He is obviously not a good person. With the overlord here, that fellow is going to suffer.”
“The overlord is much stronger than the deputy commander. Among his peers, he is unrivaled. Not even Deputy Commander Ouyang is his match. The overlord will definitely be able to teach that fellow a good lesson.”
“Let’s take a look at Deputy Commander Tang. I hope he’s still fine.”
…
The Overlord Legion members greatly revered Xiang Shaoyun. After all, he had created too many legends to the point where he felt so far away from the rest of them. There were about 10 Overlord Legion members present. They were all low-level Heaven Battling Realm cultivators.
These were the geniuses from all around the world who had trained in the Dragon Phoenix Academy. Thus, it wasn’t surprising that they were able to reach such a high realm. In fact, Tang Longfei was already a third-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivator. But for the Heaven Battling Ranking, a third-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivator was nothing special.
Countless Heaven Battling Realm experts had gathered from all around the world for the competition, with a large number of them being late-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivators. For youngsters like Tang Longfei and the others, they suffered a disadvantage due to their young age. If they were given 100 more years to cultivate, they would definitely be able to surpass many of their seniors.
“Where did this bumpkin come from? You dare run your mouth before this young master?” said the arrogant man on the ring.
The man looked to be about 40 years old, but his true age was between 300 to 400 years old. His name was Wu Kecai, a sixth-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivator. Tang Longfei was strong enough to fight beyond his level, but Wu Kecai was no weakling. Thus, Tang Longfei had been the one to suffer defeat.
Xiang Shaoyun raised his head coldly and said, “I’ll allow you to enjoy your break for a little bit longer.”
He then walked up to Tang Longfei. At this time, an honest-looking woman was looking after Tang Longfei with an anxious look on her face.
Xiang Shaoyun had some impression of her. Her name was Zhong Moli, and she was a disciple of the Dragon Phoenix Academy and a member of the Overlord Legion. She wasn’t exactly a supreme beauty, but her heroic temperament still made her an attractive woman.
“Step aside. Let me take a look,” said Xiang Shaoyun.
Zhong Moli nodded obediently and said, “Overlord, you must avenge the deputy commander.”
Xiang Shaoyun nodded before looking at the pale Tang Longfei. “Bear with it, Big Brother Tang. You’ll be fine soon.”
Next, a rich life force erupted from Xiang Shaoyun’s body and enveloped Tang Longfei, rapidly healing his injuries. The others were greatly shocked by what they saw. Xiang Shaoyun’s combat strength was already monstrous, but his healing ability seemed impressive as well.
After several years of cultivating in seclusion, Xiang Shaoyun’s comprehension of the profundity of life had deepened considerably. Tang Longfei’s injuries might seem serious, but such injuries were nothing for Xiang Shaoyun.
Before long, Tang Longfei fully recovered from his injuries. The people around them were greatly amazed. Meanwhile, Wu Kecai was still standing on the ring with a look of derision. He seemed to be waiting for Xiang Shaoyun to get onto the ring.
After Tang Longfei recovered, he said, “Thanks, overlord.”
“We’re brothers. There is no need for you to thank me. Wait a bit. I’ll go teach that fellow a lesson,” said Xiang Shaoyun.
“Um. You must teach him a lesson. He had harassed Moli,” said Tang Longfei furiously. “But he seems to have an extraordinary background. You need to be careful.”
“Even the heavenly emperor himself won’t be allowed to harm my brother,” said Xiang Shaoyun as he hopped onto the ring.
The ring was a saint-grade ring. Anyone capable of winning 500 matches in a row would obtain a strand of God Realm energy, which wasn’t an unachievable feat. Several people had successfully completed the challenge in the past and had all proceeded to enter the Rebirth Realm afterward.
The moment Xiang Shaoyun stepped onto the ring, the surrounding women started shouting in excitement. After all, he was too handsome with an unrivaled temperament to boot. Thus, it wasn’t surprising that he was quite a lady-killer.
“Kid, whoever you are, know that avenging someone else is never something easy,” said Wu Kecai with a sneer.
“You talk too much,” said Xiang Shaoyun as he transformed into a gust of wind before reappearing before Wu Kecai. Before Wu Kecai could even react, Xiang Shaoyun grabbed his neck with his hand.
Not even in his dreams had Wu Kecai imagined that he would lose control over his life before he could even do anything. His entire body turned cold.
“Is it illegal to kill on the ring?” asked Xiang Shaoyun as he looked at Tang Longfei.
Only then did they recover from their shock. One of them replied, “When one steps onto the ring, it is up to the heavens whether one lives or dies.”
“No—I surren—” Wu Kecai hurriedly called out in fear when he realized that Xiang Shaoyun planned to kill him. Alas, Xiang Shaoyun tightened his grip before Wu Kecai could finish his words, snapping Wu Kecai’s neck.
At the Saint Realm, even if one’s neck was broken, one could still survive so long as one’s soul was preserved. However, Xiang Shaoyun clearly did not intend to spare Wu Kecai, and he spat a clump of flame at Wu Kecai’s soul the moment it appeared.
“Stop!” a voice rang out outside the ring.
Bang!
Xiang Shaoyun ignored the shout and burned Wu Kecai’s soul into nothingness.
“Bastard, whoever you are, I, Wu Feng, will not spare you for killing my cousin!” a furious voice rang out.
A golden figure appeared on the ring and immediately attacked Xiang Shaoyun. The Immortal Arena’s rules were rather harsh. A new combatant may immediately challenge the victor the moment a combatant suffered defeat. No referee was required. And the moment one stepped onto the ring, one’s life would be put on the line. Wu Feng seemed rather strong as he was actually a peak Heaven Battling Realm cultivator.
