Chapter 681: Cultivator Tongtong: Every Day Will Have its Day
“How impetuous! Who do you think you are!”
“Who is this guy? What gives him the right to be so cocky?”
“He’s either crazy or has some bigwig backing him.”
“He’s totally mad! We should teach him a lesson or else we’ll never live this down!”
“He’s shitting on us! We need to make him pay!”
Everyone was shouting over each other and looking angrily at Xing Ya.
Xing Ya nodded at them. He was very satisfied with their reactions. ‘Wow! Look at ’em! I sure can work the crowd! I must keep up the good work. Everyone will surely know my name in the future.’
Murong Batian stared at Xing Ya with cold eyes. “It looks like you’re determined to cause trouble here. I will not forgive you for that!”
“Murong Clan is a bunch of pathetic ants too!” Xing Ya said arrogantly with a wave of his wand.
“Die!” Murong Batian shouted. He activated his mana and immediately a vision of a blood-red fireball appeared behind him. The terrifying glow from the fireball was stronger than the sun and it transformed into a flaming ultimate spell attack as it rushed toward Xing Ya.
“It has appeared! Murong Clan’s Grand Day Tantra, the ‘Mountain Burning, Ocean Boiling’ ultimate spell!”
“It’s so powerful! It’s no wonder Murong Batian could break through to the Heavenly Realm. His Grand Day Tantra could create a whole new planet!”
“Looks like that guy had really angered Murong Batian. If not he wouldn’t have used this spell from the very get go. Heck! He didn’t even use it on Shenhuo Daozun.”
“As if Shenhuo Daozun could ever neutralize this attack with his divine fire.”
“Well, no matter what, this guy deserves what’s coming for him. I would have done the same thing if he had humiliated me like that.”
To the audience, there seemed to be another sun hanging above the fighting ring. The temperature of the fireball distorted the surrounding space and cast ripples of shadow all around them. A divine fire with a power to refine all the things in the universe was burning around the perimeter of the ring.
Murong Batian looked coldly at Xing Ya and in an extremely arrogant tone said, “I’ll spare your life if you apologize and beg for forgiveness now.”
“How can a small flame be comparable to a star light?” Xing Ya was not planning on stopping his act. He slowly waved his hand around to cast his ultimate spell. “Star Light Star Bright!” Immediately, a vision of a silvery milky way appeared and countless stars began to fall down to the ring, putting out the fire.
The light of the galaxy shot toward Murong Batian and collided against the red sun. Even with the protective barrier around the ring, the audience could still feel the terrifying force given out from the impact and this made their blood in their veins run cold. However, Xing Ya pretended to be unaffected by it and kept up his act of an all-powerful being whereas Murong Batian seemed to be hanging by a thread. Seeing this, the audience dared not underestimate Xing Ya anymore.
“There’s no point in being the strongest person in the universe if you don’t even know my name. Yes, it’s true that my words can be a little bit offensive but then again, what I say is only the truth,” said Xing Ya.
“You impudent fool!” An elder from the Murong Clan said, “Someone, get him off the stage even if you have to resort to carrying his lifeless body away!” There was no way the Murong Clan would take this humiliation lying down. How dare this party-crasher steal their limelight?
Immediately, two figures jumped into the ring sending out one terrifying visions after another at Xing Ya.
“Is that all?” Xing Ya said as he raised his eyes to meet the incoming ultimate spell. His demeanor was one of calmness as if those attacks were only trifling matter. “Behold my summoning power! Come, minions, protect your master!”
Tong Tian, who was in the crowd, was about to jump up to save him but was stopped by Xiao Chengfeng.
“What are you doing?” Xiao Chengfeng said.
“Rescuing him,” said Tong Tian honestly.
“Whatever for? He deserves what’s coming for him! In fact, I will beat him up myself if they don’t beat him up!”
“Yeah! This is what he gets for trying to act all cool! He shouldn’t even think for a second we’ll clean up his mess,” added Jiang Liu.
“Did you hear what he called us and what he called himself? Who does he think he is?” Nuwa said. She was about to explode from rage.
“As much as I want to show off my power, this really isn’t the best time for me to go into the ring,” said Blackie.
“I’m so glad to hear you all say that. I wasn’t actually that keen on helping him…” said Tong Tian, finally at ease.
However, everyone else in the audience was waiting with bated breath for Xing Ya’s ‘minions’ to appear for they really believed he possessed the summoning power he thought he had. It was a good long while before they realized that no one was going to come.
“Die!” The men from the Murong Clan screamed.
“Hold up! Hold up! Where are my minions?” Xing Ya was beginning to panic. He quickly scanned the audiences’ faces and came away empty-handed. Those sell-outs! He had been abandoned by Blackie and the rest of the group!
Murong Batian and the two men did not waste anymore time and they surrounded him from three sides before casting their ultimate spells. Judging by Xing Ya’s expression, he finally realized that he was in deep sh*t and judging by the audiences’ expressions, they were really enjoying seeing him like that.
‘I’m gonna die. I’m gonna die!’ The pale-faced Xing Ya thought as he ran around the ring trying to avoid the spells. His robe already had a few burnt holes in it and his hair was flying around wildly. “Lord Xiao Chengfeng, Lord Jiang Liu, Lord Dog, please save me!”
“God would not accept the birth of Xiao Chengfeng, but my sword cultivation is still historical like the long night!” A voice echoed in the sky. Xiao Chengfeng had appeared!
A dazzling sword light arced through the air and the sky seemed to be splitted into halves while the terrifying Sword Qi blanketed the sky. The air became so sharp that even the laws of the universe had to bow down to it. Anyone who was carrying a sword would have discovered their sword vibrating with the same frequency. The impressive entrance made everyone gasp.
“Three thousand visitors are full of flowers, Fourteen states froze over, With one strike of the sword!” Another voice echoed through the sky and seemed to have illuminated it. This time, the sword light fell down from the sky like snowflakes, and the temperature instantly fell below freezing point.
The terrifying sword lights from Xiao Chengfeng and Jiang Liu’s attack rushed toward the three Heavenly Realm fighters, neutralizing all of their ultimate spells along the way, and swept them up like fallen leaves before sending them flying up to the air. The sword light then rained down on them, creating a million cuts on their body, which sent a fine mist of blood spraying into the air. However, their Origins of Life were not damaged and so their wounds were quickly healed.
“You must have a death wish if you dare to pick on my little brother!” Xiao Chengfeng scolded.
“So he’s not lying about having comrades here. Do you really think we’ll let this matter slide? Kill them!” The Murong Clan screamed coldly.
All around them was the eruption of terrifying aura as those who were itching to join in the fight rushed toward Xiao Chengfeng, Jiang Liu and Xing Ya. Five other Heavenly Realm fighters joined them in the ring bringing up the total number they would be going against to eight.
“Just as well!” Xiao Chengfeng said with a roar of laughter. He was high with battle spirits and this just made him even more excited. Immediately, the fighting ring was filled with countless sword lights, terrifying visions and the sound of metal hitting metal.
“They’re all so strong!”
“The two sword cultivators are so powerful! They can even cut through the thousand laws of the universe.”
“Where did they come from? They must be the alpha amongst the Heavenly Realm fighters.”
“I can vaguely see the Wisdom vein in their swords. They must be close to reaching the Wisdom Elite level!”
“I’m actually more impressed by their lines! They must be geniuses to be able to come up with such cool lines!”
The more they watched the fight unfold before them, the more amazed they were at Xiao Chengfeng and Jiang Liu.
It was obvious the two did not have the advantage of numbers on their side and yet they seemed to have the upper-hand. Their high-handed sword skills were easily suppressing the Murong Clan and the audience had no doubt that they could easily take them out if they wished to.
Even the Murong Clan could not disguise their shock. The master of the clan came rushing to the fighting ring with a grim expression on his face when he received news that there were two skilled sword fighters causing trouble for their clan members. He had heard that they might even become a Wisdom Elite! Where did they come from and who in the world is their teacher?
There were only two ways to deal with people like this — one, kill them or two, win them over. However, on this day of celebration, it would be better if no blood was shed and so after some contemplation, the master of the clan shouted at his men to stop. He walked up to the ring when they had ceased fighting. “Welcome, friends! So kind of you all to join us on this day of celebration. I am Murong Yucheng, head of the Murong Clan. And how may I address the two of you?”
“I have searched all over the world for somebody that could defeat me but came away empty-handed. It is I, Xiao Chengfeng, one feels lonely at the top,” said Xiao Chengfeng arrogantly.
“My victory is as guaranteed as how the sun rises from the east every morning. It is I, Jiang Liu, one who has never tasted defeat,” said Jiang Liu coldly.
The audience was, once again, awe-struck by their unmatchable force. They muttered the lines over and over again under their breath, hoping to sear it into their minds so that one day, they would be able to use it for their own entrance.
“Ah! So it’s ‘Brother Lonely at the Top’ and ‘Brother Never Tasted Defeat’. Welcome to my humble abode! The sword fight you’ve put on for us is very entertaining indeed. I do apologize if the banquet is not to your liking and ask for your kind forgiveness. Please have a seat near me,” said Murong Yuncheng in a friendly tone.
‘Might as well,’ thought Xiao Chengfeng and Jiang Liu as they strode cockily to their seats with Xing Ya silently following behind them. He let out a small sigh as he tended to his own wounds. Unlike him, both Xiao Chengfeng and Jiang Liu were not trying to act powerful but were in fact, really powerful as they had received many pointers and blessings from the expert.
“Attendants, pour everyone a cup of Enlightened Immortal Wine,” ordered Murong Yuncheng to the joy of everyone.
Every Immortal Sect in this city has a specialty immortal item they made themselves to sell in their shops and the Murong Clan’s specialty just happened to be the Enlightened Immortal Wine. Every year only a limited quantity was produced and it could only be ‘bought’ with treasures instead of money.
The Enlightened Immortal Wine not only has the effect of washing away all the sins from one’s Dao Heart but it could even aid those below the Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal break through their bottle necks. Most of the people who came to the banquet only attended with the hope of being able to drink the famed brew.
In no time at all, the servants all came out with the brew bottle and started to make their rounds with the guests. Instantly, the whole air was filled with the scent of the brew which had the effect of making one feel refreshed.
“The Murong Clan sure is generous. I’m so glad I came.”
“Yay! I’ve been waiting for this day since forever.”
“Everyone, let’s toast in celebration for the Murong Clan gaining another Heavenly Realm fighter!”
“This wine has Heaven Spiritual Rice as its base and many other Spiritual Roots and Spiritual Herb as its flavoring. Please have a taste,” said Murong Yuncheng to Xiao Chengfeng with a smile.
‘Heaven Spiritual Rice? What kind of rice is that? Oh well, I’ll soon find out after I get my hands on everything they own,’ thought Xiao Chengfeng and Jiang Liu. They nodded their heads at each other and each took a sip from their glasses. Their faces instantly changed and they quickly spat out the wine.
“You call this wine?”
“It tastes freaking horrible! Even water tastes better than it!”
“This wine belongs to the dumpster!”
They were not acting like this out of spite but out of basic instinct.
Compared to the wine the expert made, this was worse than scum! A sour taste lingered in their mouths and they could not believe that Murong Yuncheng dared to serve this kind of wine to his guests. They suddenly remembered they had not drunk the Deer Blood Wine given by the expert and reminded themselves to make it happen as soon as they returned from this mission.
The smile disappeared from Murong Yucheng’s face and his eyes went cold. The other guests were shocked into silence but not for long as they began to whisper amongst themselves.
“This wine is wasted on them! I can’t believe they spat it out.”
“They must be mad! If you look up the word in the dictionary, you’ll see their faces peering out at you!”
“Those ungrateful b*stards! Who do they think they are?”
“I bet they’re faking it!”
“You don’t believe us? A dog will not even drink this if you put it in front of him! Look, I’ll prove it to you,” said Xiao Chengfeng nonchalantly to the guests. He then proceeded to put the wine glass in front of Blackie who did not even glance at it before turning his head away in disgust.
“You see! Is this the kind of thing you serve to your esteemed guests?” Xiao Chengfeng asked.
Murong Yuncheng’s face darkened and he laughed coldly, “I get it now. You’re only here to cause trouble.”
Suddenly, Tian Tong stood up and in a cold voice asked, “Members of the Murong Clan, do you still remember me?”
Everyone turned to look at him and judging by the question marks on their face that they did not.
Tian Tong was a little embarrassed by this. “Of course, I don’t expect you to for after all, back in the days I was nothing but a helpless ant under your foot! However, every dog will have its day and today it’s my day for revenge!”
