Chapter 1747 - 1351: Great Demon God! Cruel Father, Filial Sons!
However, from the birth of any idea to its implementation and success, the path is always winding, and the process requires preparation, so that everything can naturally develop and come to fruition.
...
In the development of everything in the world, if one desires to infinitely approach the word "perfect," it seems that one cannot escape the essence of "nature."
Daoist Natural, water flows smoothly when conditions are right.
If one can achieve their goals without obstacles, that is indeed the most suitable and wonderful thing.
Dongfang Bubai wants it to be so.
Xiao Sanxiao wants it to be so.
Qin Shi Huang also wants it to be so.
However, Dongfang Bubai waits intentionally for the unintentional, only hoping to blossom, without expecting whether it will bear fruit after blooming. This is to wait intentionally for the unintentional, having no intention to compete in spring, allowing all flowers to envy.
Xiao Sanxiao and Qin Shi Huang, on the other hand, seek the unintentional with intention.
The former hopes Jiang Dali can help him remove the two rebellious sons, which is precisely in line with what the Mud Buddha said: "The time has not yet come, forcing things will only bring harm and no benefit."
The latter wishes to use the Golden Man Body to exert ten percent of his power to kill the dragon and seize the pearl, obtain the Dragon Essence, and escape the wretched state of the clay figurine to live a second life. Yet, it violates the precious Life Chart of "mandate from heaven, eternal prosperity," which brings endless harm.
Now, Jiang Dali has not yet decided to assist Xiao Sanxiao in dealing with the Xuanhua Ship Master and his mysterious brother. The Xuanhua Ship Master, Xiao Aoshi, and his brother Xiao Jingtian have already been together, discussing how to deal with the two.
...
In Ying Country, anyone with a bit of influence may not know who the Sect Leader of the Hidden Sword Style is, but they surely know who the Xuanhua Ship Master is.
But few know that the Ship Master Xiao Aoshi has a biological brother, Xiao Jingtian, whose power surpasses his own.
Just one Ship Master Xiao Aoshi is already a mighty expert of the Returning to Truth 9th Realm. The disciples he taught, Sun Ren Tian Yin, and his subordinates Blood Thirteen, Fei Niao Gui San, and Shuangtong Zhongba, are all Heavenly Realm experts. If his biological brother Xiao Jingtian is even stronger, how powerful must he be?
So far in the Martial World, apart from Xiao Sanxiao and Xiao Aoshi, almost no one knows how strong Xiao Jingtian, known as the Great Demon God, truly is.
At this moment, among the heavily layered broken walls and jagged mountains piercing the sky like wolf teeth, the Great Demon God Xiao Jingtian is demonstrating his formidable power.
Only the enormous ’Chuxin Thunder’ sound is heard!
The fists of the two brothers, Xiao Jingtian and Xiao Aoshi, fiercely collide at the summit of a peak, producing a thunderous explosion. The incomparably strong power wave instantly shatters and blasts the rocks on the mountain, which tumble and fall down with a crashing sound.
The Ship Master Xiao Aoshi is clearly at a disadvantage in an instant, his face turning blue and purple, indicating that his Blood Qi is in chaos from this clash and he urgently needs to regain his energy.
The Great Demon God Xiao Jingtian, with his black hair flying and laughing heartily, does not take advantage of his victory to pursue further. Instead, he shows a look of appreciation, proudly saying, "Aoshi, your injuries have recovered eighty percent, but I only used fifty percent of my power. Do you still want to see the progress I’ve made over these years?"
"Again!"
Xiao Aoshi, as if unwilling to accept defeat, roars in defiance, his figure leaping back to land on the summit of the mountain, then suddenly leaping up again with a sharp whistle as a dazzling silvery white arc lightning erupts from his entire body. Already burly, his figure seems to become even larger in an instant. His muscles bulge, his body flips in mid-air, and a round Qi Force suddenly bursts from his Dantian, transmitting to his right leg’s tiptoe.
"Hahaha!! Come on!"
The Great Demon God Xiao Jingtian’s silhouette blurs in the night as he stands proudly, his black hair transforming into a strange blood-red color. His power circulating to eighty percent, his palm releases an astonishing crimson flame, striking like a flaming god, sending countless crushed stones and sand with a momentum even stronger than before, kicking fiercely towards Xiao Aoshi’s charging leg!
In an instant, a deafening sound erupts along with a fierce bright light on the summit.
An annular Qi Force shockwave abruptly arises from the brief meeting of two unparalleled forces, immediately exploding into a heaven-shaking and earth-shattering intense shockwave. The resulting waves of counter-shock force sweep across a wide swath of the surrounding mountain landscape within a hundred feet, shattering trees, with countless leaves fluttering and bursting apart!
The next moment, amidst the chaotic Qi Force, two cheerful laughs are heard as the figures of Xiao Aoshi and Xiao Jingtian flash out from the center of the ravaging Qi Force. They gracefully land on bare tree branches in the mountain stream below, looking at each other and laughing again.
The Ship Master Xiao Aoshi said, "Big brother! Your power at night is still as strong as ever. Even if my injuries fully recover, I couldn’t withstand a hundred moves from you. It seems you’ve truly cultivated the Complete Heaven Four Extremes to Great Success, but the weaknesses of this Martial Art not only you and I know, even that old immortal knows."
Xiao Aoshi sighed and shook his head, "Twice before, he came to deal with us two brothers in daylight. Those two times, if we hadn’t used familial affection and our mother’s relics to catch him off guard and wound him, forcing him to retreat, we would have long been crippled by this old immortal.
This time, even that Black Wind Village Chief has arrived in Ying Country. If the old immortal and this mountain bandit king join forces to find us during the day, how would we block them? The same mistake, this old immortal would not make a third time."
The Great Demon God Xiao Jingtian gave a cold snort, suddenly turning anger into laughter, saying, "As the saying goes, the tiger will not devour its cubs, but this old immortal repeatedly wants to cripple us brothers. This shows that our determination back then to destroy his laughable world of peace was completely correct.
This old immortal, with his false benevolence, abandoned his wife back then, not allowing our mother to see him before her death. We have never received an ounce of care from him. A man who wouldn’t care for his own family still wants to maintain world peace, it’s despicable! Laughable!
We now have no reason to treat him as a father but to find all possible means to kill him!"
Upon speaking, the Great Demon God Xiao Jingtian’s eyes were filled with a murderous glint. Suddenly he burst into laughter again, his skin and meridians expanding outward, and his laughter full of murder was like that of a true demon.
"Indeed! If the father is unkind, don’t blame us for being unfilial!"
The Ship Master Xiao Aoshi nodded in agreement but then suddenly shook his head, "No! We cannot kill him; killing him would be too easy for him. We must cripple him and then let him see with his own eyes how we destroy the world he has always protected, letting the vassal states be completely annihilated in the flames of war and blood!
But big brother, you said you would use all means to harm this old immortal, but do you already have a proper strategy?"
Xiao Jingtian’s laughter stopped, his eyes showing a vicious and mad look, coldly saying to Xiao Aoshi, "Of course, there’s a strategy! Originally, if the old immortal hadn’t fought with the Black Wind Village Chief and alerted us, I wouldn’t have connected it with this mountain bandit king!
Now that this mountain bandit king is exposed, we can completely target him. Whether he is an enemy or friend of the old immortal or if there are any oddities, he is worthy of our use, to achieve a dual purpose."
Xiao Aoshi raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Big brother, speak straight! What can we use this brute for? Do you intend to form a collaboration with him?"
