Chapter 567 - 566: Arrest Him
"Throw them out."
Murong Yue, furious from the humiliation, directly ordered the two Era-Defining Kings behind him.
The two Era-Defining Kings snorted coldly and took a step forward, an explosive aura erupting from them. The one in the green robe immediately charged forward.
"Hmph. Do you really think we’re easy to bully?"
Bi Xiaoyu’s expression turned cold, and with a flash of movement, she met his charge.
In an instant, before anyone could react, two streams of Divine Light collided and erupted. A fierce gale swept out, and the surrounding crowd immediately backed away.
The medicine fair’s owner jolted, then hurried to a high platform. His hands flew through a series of Spells, forming a stunning Array that flowed with light, protecting the medicinal herbs.
Then, with a pained expression, he said, "Neither of these people has a simple background. My humble medicine fair can’t afford to offend these two great figures. What am I going to do?"
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He immediately found an attendant and said, "Quick, go get the city’s Law Enforcement Team! Tell them someone is fighting at the medicine fair."
"Yes, sir."
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The two streams of Divine Light clashed continuously in the air, sending out shockwaves that created ripples in the space around them. A majestic Strong Qi swept out, spreading in all directions.
If not for the protective Array, the place would have been reduced to ruins long ago.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Bi Xiaoyu’s hands danced. The Divine Light transformed into stream after stream of Sword Qi that shot through the air, dense as a torrential downpour, completely enveloping the green-robed Era-Defining King.
"Hmph, parlor tricks!"
The hands of the green-robed Era-Defining King fluttered up and down like butterflies dancing among flowers. He sent out streams of Palm Qi, majestic and vast, that instantly entangled with the Sword Qi.
The void trembled as ripples carrying terrifying impact force spread outward.
Qin Ya watched the two fight without any intention of stopping them. He knew that Bi Xiaoyu had only recently broken through to become an Era-Defining King and needed battles to solidify her combat strength.
"Elder Qian, go take care of that boy."
"Yes."
Upon hearing this, the white-robed elder nodded. His figure flashed as he rushed toward Qin Ya, condensing Divine Light. Palm Qi crisscrossed the air as he brought his attack down from above.
In an instant, a immense aura pressed down like a great mountain. The air within a hundred-zhang radius seemed to vanish, replaced by a terrifying pressure that made it difficult to breathe. ’An Era-Defining King. His strength isn’t too weak.’
Facing this pressure, Qin Ya simply smiled indifferently. His body’s True Essence suddenly erupted, and without using any Mysterious Martial Skill, he threw a direct punch upward.
BANG...
A terrifying shockwave exploded from the point where their fist and palm met, carrying immense power and spreading out in concentric circles, just like ripples on a lake.
"Ngh, what terrifying True Essence!"
"This kind of True Essence is absolutely not something a King should possess."
The white-robed elder’s eyes narrowed, a look of utter shock on his face.
But Qin Ya’s lips curved into a slight, indifferent smile. "Is that all it takes to impress you?"
"Hmph. A pity, but the gap between an Era-Defining King and a King is insurmountable. My Mysterious Technique has already reached the level of Fourth-Layer Divine Light."
As he spoke, a grayish-white Divine Light swirled in his palm. A moment later, an even more terrifying power burst forth. If his previous attack was a mountain peak, this was an entire, unending mountain range. The power had exploded by at least tenfold.
It pressed down on Qin Ya from above.
BOOM! The terrifying power kicked up a gale around Qin Ya. The floor beneath his feet, forged from incredibly hard ore, cracked inch by inch!
But the white-robed Era-Defining King showed no sign of triumph. Instead, his face was a mask of concentration.
Because in his eyes, Qin Ya’s figure remained as straight and unbending as a sturdy spear, not bowing in the slightest and even emitting a faint, sharp aura.
"Is this the full extent of your power?"
Qin Ya’s lips curved slightly. He still hadn’t used his True Intent, relying only on his True Essence—which far surpassed that of an ordinary King—to withstand the attack, yet he showed no signs of fatigue.
"Th-This is impossible!"
A mere King was actually using True Essence to directly resist Divine Light!
Such a thing was simply unthinkable.
Even Qin Ya himself was a little surprised, but then he just smiled faintly.
Possessing the Leakless Body, the strength of his True Essence was already far beyond that of his peers. On top of that, Qin Ya had consumed a large amount of Holy Liquid, causing his True Essence to undergo a complete transformation.
"Four Symbols, Thunder Flame!!"
Having tested the strength of his True Essence, Qin Ya smiled indifferently. Instantly, the two energies of lightning and flame swirled around him, condensed, and suddenly erupted.
The terrifying Thunder Flame Power swept over him, and the Era-Defining King was immediately thrown backward. He stumbled back more than a dozen steps before finally steadying himself.
"How is this possible? How can a King like you exist in this world!"
The white-robed Era-Defining King found it hard to believe. Meanwhile, seeing Qin Ya’s magnificent display of power, Bi Xiaoyu’s eyes focused. She brandished her light-blue Sword Light, sending streams of Sword Qi into the air before simplifying the complex and condensing them all into a single strike.
"Mysterious Technique... Sword Rain Unification!!"
BOOM! The Sword Qi slashed through the air with unparalleled might.
The green-robed Era-Defining King didn’t dare to be the least bit careless. With a cold shout, Divine Light erupted from his body. He raised his palm, and in that hazy instant, a gale seemed to condense around it.
"Mysterious Technique... Gale Palm!"
The palm struck, and a fierce wind swept forth.
The Sword Qi and Palm Qi collided, setting off astonishing fluctuations. At the point of contact, a terrifying energy erupted and shot directly toward the ground.
BOOM! A huge fissure was instantly carved into the floor.
Immediately after, Bi Xiaoyu and the green-robed Era-Defining King were both forced back by the shockwave.
Murong Yue’s face had already turned livid with rage. A cold light flickered in his eyes as he said icily, "Boy, you’d better think carefully about the consequences of offending me."
"I am a Pill King’s Disciple. Do you have any idea what that means?"
"As long as nothing goes wrong, I will become a Pill King in the future. That is an existence on par with a Venerable, with countless followers at my side."
"At that time, I’ll be able to topple a Noble Family with a single word and create an expert with a single word. Offending me will only lead to your tragic end."
As he finished speaking, Murong Yue’s anger gradually faded, replaced by a look of unbridled arrogance. He wasn’t wrong. Barring any accidents, with his Talent, his future was boundless; he would become a lofty Dominator who ruled over all living beings.
The people around were already gazing at Murong Yue with fanatical expressions.
Most of them were Alchemists and naturally understood that with Murong Yue’s Talent, there was a high probability he could become a Pill King—the great figure he described.
"Heh, ridiculous."
Qin Ya scoffed, completely unconcerned.
At this moment, the heavy sound of approaching footsteps could be heard. Everyone looked over to see law enforcement soldiers clad in Armor walking in. They held their weapons and radiated a boundless killing aura as they surrounded the medicine fair.
"Oh, the Law Enforcement Team."
A slight smile played on Murong Yue’s lips as he looked at Qin Ya. "Excellent. Since you’re from the main city, you wouldn’t dare resist the Law Enforcement Team, would you? We’ll let them teach you a lesson. This is also a perfect chance for you to see the power that I, a Pill King’s Disciple, wield."
He then waved to the leader of the Law Enforcement Team and said, "I am an honored guest of the Venerable Mansion and a Disciple of the Jade Pill King. Please help me seize him."
