Chapter 757 - Grand Elder
Chapter 757: Grand Elder
“Hey, stop kicking! Goddamn little brat, enough… You are breaking my wings!”
“God, they’re broken… You’ve broken them! My legs are broken, too!”
“Okay, okay… I’ll stop talking. Just stop kicking… You are kicking the sh*t out of me!”
The Duck Emperor kept screaming and looked like he was about to cry, but there were no tears. By then he had learned one lesson–he would not be in trouble if he had not asked for it.
The people around were all shocked. A duck who could speak? Was that a beast demon? This young man owned a beast demon as a pet beast, and he even threw it to the ground and kicked it. Who the hell was he?
After ten-odd kicks, Xiao Luo finally felt better. Then he lifted the touch of death he had imposed on the muscular man. Pointing at the Duck Emperor on the ground, he asked, “Do you need more explanation?”
The muscular man felt embarrassed because he realized he had misunderstood Xiao Luo indeed. After observation, he concluded the Duck Emperor was not a beast demon, but an ordinary duck who had got intelligence, and that was why it could speak. After all, with a Renren Elixir of the Danhui Sect, one could make any animal speak. That was nothing weird.
“Even though you did not curse me, you are still responsible for your pet beast. So, I didn’t wrong you at all. Apologize now. Kneel and kowtow to me three times, and I will forget about this,” said the muscular man peremptorily. His pride did not allow him to admit he had wronged Xiao Luo.
“Kowtow to you?” Annoyed, Xiao Luo looked at him cynically.
“Of course. An apology without kowtow is not sincere at all. Just kneel and kowtow to me,” said the muscular man impatiently.
He was a Great Martial Master, and Xiao Luo was just a Martial Master in the middle stage. Although he did not know how this man could have subdued him, he supposed it was because he had not been careful enough. If they got into a fight, he had the confidence that he could trounce Xiao Luo, so he was not afraid at all.
“Humph.”
Xiao Luo did not bother to speak to the muscular man anymore. He snorted and then threw a punch at the latter’s stomach.
It was such a quick attack that the muscular man did not have the time to react at all. Xiao Luo’s punch smashed into his stomach with substantial force and he felt like his viscera churning up. His face was distorted because of pain and he could not stop groaning. Step by step, he walked away to one side of the road, and finally knelt, supporting himself with his left hand propped on the ground. With his right hand, he held his stomach at the spot where he had just been punched. His entire body was in spasms.
“Oh, my, I bet it’s painful!”
The Duck Emperor flew back onto Xiao Luo’s shoulder, throwing the muscular man an empathetic look.
Xiao Luo stared at the duck. “Don’t you dare make any trouble again!”
The Duck Emperor shivered and said, “Goddamn little brat, you see? You just threatened me again!”
Xiao Luo’s face looked as cold as frost. He regretted he brought this annoying duck along for the many troubles he had caused.
“Don’t be angry. I just wanted to inject some fun into our tedious wait,” said the Duck Emperor.
“I can’t appreciate the fun you have in mind,” said Xiao Luo in an icy voice.
“What’s wrong? What happened?”
At this moment, a disciple of the Danhui Sect ran over. He asked after looking at the muscular man on the ground, still unable to speak from the pain he felt.
“I guess he has a stomach ache and probably needs to go to the toilet,” said Xiao Luo, forcing a smile.
That disciple of the Danhui Sect looked annoyed. “You should have stayed at home if you have stomach pains. Why did you come here for? You wanna take a sh*t during transmission?” He stopped paying attention to the muscular man. After all, Xiao Luo was Martial Master, while the muscular man was Great Martial Master. He definitely would not believe that it was Xiao Luo who had attacked the muscular man. Waving his hand, he said insensitively, “It will be your turn soon. Don’t fall behind. Go over now.”
Xiao Luo nodded and picked up the pace to catch up to the man in front of him in the queue. There were only ten-odd people in front of him.
“ARGHH!”
Suddenly, a long scream came from somewhere in the palace of the Danhui Sect and echoed through the air like thunder. The travelers waiting for the transmission on the empty field almost fell to the ground from shock. Some average people who had never cultivated even felt their blood curdle.
The Duck Emperor exclaimed, “That’s not good. It must be that backer of the Songs. He must have found out that we have eliminated the Songs and he’s on the warpath because of that.”
“Shut up. Pretend as if nothing had happened. We’ll carry on walking discreetly.”
Xiao Luo did not want any trouble and only wanted to arrive at the sacred place of the Light Clan as soon as possible. The Danhui Sect was not a small sect, and they were the ones who supervised the teleportation portal. If he had any conflict with them, he was sure it would affect his journey.
“That’s right, we’ll sneak out from right under his nose. It’ll drive those bast*rd bananas!” said the Duck Emperor, baring its teeth with a wicked sense of humor. Although his beak was flat, he looked like he was snickering and flashing his fangs.
“What happened? Why is the Grand Elder so angry suddenly?”
The disciple of the Danhui Sect murmured, frowning. Then he went on directing people into the teleportation portal for the trip to the Mu City in an orderly fashion.
The ten-odd travelers in front of Xiao Luo had all walked into the transmitting formation. Looking back at the palace of the Danhui Sect, he felt relieved. Then he also walked into the transmitting formation.
“Stop the transmission. Stop the transmission immediately!”
A large white-haired man about fifty years old sporting a white-bearded, flew three hundred or four hundred miles to the empty field from the palace of the Danhui Sect, carrying someone from the Songs with him.
The old man stood there, and an invisible force emanated from his body, spreading across the empty field with a threatening flow of energy.
“Grand Elder!”
The disciple of the Danhui Sect responsible for the transmission hurried over and salute him.
The old man ignored him. Letting go of the man from the Song family, he said in a harsh voice, “You said the killer of my grandson is here. Who is he? Point him out!”
That man from the Song family was trembling before such a powerful man.
At this moment, a few more old men flew out of the palace of the Danhui Sect and landed on the empty field. They dressed the same way as the first old man, showing they were elders of the Danhui Sect as well.
“Elder brother, what’s gotten into you? Don’t hurt these innocent people!” said one of the elders.
The Grand Elder waved his hand. “The family of my grandson was slaughtered, and the killer is here among them. You stay out of this! Otherwise, I won’t show any mercy to you although we are fellow disciples.” He gave that man from the Songs an angry stare and scowled, “Who the hell is the murderer? Point him out. I’ll cut him into thousands of pieces!”
The man from the Songs gestured for another clansman who was hiding in the crowd. The man hurried forward and bowed to the old man. “Lord, he… He has just entered the teleportation portal.”
What?
The Grand Elder’s eyes widened at the news and his blood boiled, making him look like a vicious ghost.
He glanced at the shining teleportation portal, then thrust his palm toward it right away.
“What are you doing, Elder brother? The sacred Light Clan built this teleportation portal. If you destroy it, they will doubtlessly punish us, and will eliminate the Danhui Sect from this world.”
“That’s right, Elder brother. Don’t act impulsively. Think it over,” persuaded another elder patiently.
“I will not think it f*cking over. That little jerk eliminated the family of my grandson. I’m going to cut him into thousands of pieces. You get out of my way!”
The Grand Elder shouted as tremendous energy flowed out of him. None of those elders could stop him, and he thrust his palm at the portal.
The tremendous energy from his palm force surged like angry waves over the empty field. The force unleashed was extremely devastating.
