Chapter 2158 - 2147: The Woman Protected by the Holy War Demon Master (Sixth Update)
Now that I think about it, it was really close, really close. Recalling it makes Situ Xuan involuntarily break out in sweat.
And his father was no better off. The events of that day are vividly remembered. Luckily, he was smart enough to let it go in time; if he had continued to pursue trouble, he might not even know how he’d died.
"Could this guy be a Domain expert?" In the shadows, Dongfang Ziyue frowned repeatedly. That evening when she tried to ambush him, she not only failed but got injured by her opponent.
Today, he was on stage again. Even the Demon Queen Level Hua Tianfeng is unable to do anything against him. So far, he hasn’t even bothered to strike back, which goes to show he’s extraordinary and possibly an incredibly powerful expert. At this moment, having already failed several times, Hua Tianfeng vaguely guessed something. Although her opponent wasn’t showing signs of attacking, he might very well crush her next, even causing her disgrace, and ultimately defeat her utterly!
The more she thought about it negatively, the less Hua Tianfeng dared to imagine, attempting to end this match as quickly as possible so she could win sooner.
"Ah~"
Hua Tianfeng let out a delicate shout, her pace steady, while her ten alabaster fingers slashed repeatedly in front of her. Her sharp fingertips seemed to slice through the air like ten sharp knives.
Faced with a mysterious strong opponent like Lin Zifeng, Hua Tianfeng completely put away her initial underestimation. She knew this guy before her could be even stronger than Dongfang Ziyue and Situ Mingzheng. A small slip could lose her this match, and if she loses, her title as Demon Queen would be as good as gone.
Standing opposite her, Lin Zifeng maintained his calm smile. He had to admit that Hua Tianfeng was indeed a formidable opponent, her strength vaguely reminiscent of a Taihuang Demon. It’s a pity the Taihuang Demon exists in the Mortal World, attaining such high cultivation in a field lacking Primordial Energy, which is absolutely more impressive.
Hua Tianfeng had a different background — born into this endless world of Primordial Energy, she was absorbing energy from the start. Her starting point was stronger than the Taihuang Demon, but the Taihuang Demon was a real fighter, incomparable.
"Sister, have you had enough? Is it my turn now?" Just as Hua Tianfeng prepared to attack a second time, Lin Zifeng grinned, grinning intriguingly,
This smile immediately made Hua Tianfeng realize something. She prepared to attack but then retreated a step, sweating with concern, unsure if she’d be utterly defeated if Zifeng attacked. Her mind was filled with all sorts of guesses and assumptions, given that Lin Zifeng hadn’t fully engaged since stepping on stage. Once he did, it would surely be terrifying.
"You!" Hua Tianfeng felt fear, a trace of dread in her eyes.
"Don’t be so tense, battling you alone is no fun. How about this—those two from earlier, why don’t all of you come at me together?" Lin Zifeng turned to those two Duchy Envoys and brazenly taunted them.
"Wow..."
The whole venue was once again stirred up by Lin Zifeng’s words.
"What! Is he crazy? Fighting three at once? Even if Hua Tianfeng isn’t his match, the white-clad youth and the muscular man from earlier are both fierce fighters. Who knows how strong they really are?"
The crowd was in an uproar, thinking Lin Zifeng must be insane, speaking such audacious words.
"Is this kid really unafraid of death? Even if he can evade the Demon Queen’s successive attacks, does he have a chance against all three? He must be mad."
"It seems this is the real showdown of the day. I’m curious to see what kind of skill this kid possesses to speak so wildly, it’s truly exciting."
"He might boast now, but when the real fight begins, he might not even have the chance for regret."
"Oh, who knows? Perhaps this kid’s skills are beyond our imagination. Never underestimate anyone. Our Lianyun Empire isn’t without talent or experts; it’s just that these experts are more reserved. Who knows if he’ll overpower those two from the little duchies?"
"Haha, I’m looking forward to it. Young heroes are truly enviable."
"Father, Father, will Brother Lin really take on three? Can he really win?" Hearing Lin Zifeng claim he’d take on three, Dongfang Xiaohuang immediately got excited, scared, worried that her Brother Lin might be defeated.
"Don’t worry, there shouldn’t be any problem, otherwise he wouldn’t have said it." Dongfang Haoxuan’s old face became more solemn, knowing that Lin Zifeng repeatedly claimed he would take on three — what level of strength is this?
Such a grand Dragon Barrier in this Marquis Mansion, what if one day this mansion can’t contain him anymore? That would be an enormous problem.
"..."
In the shadows, Dongfang Ziyue also shuddered, thinking Lin Zifeng was joking, that her ears had deceived her; now it seemed she hadn’t been wrong, and neither was he joking. Was this guy truly insane?
Hua Tianfeng is the closest to a Saint among them, and she hasn’t beaten even one. If a few more come, does he still have a chance?
Thinking back, when Lin Zifeng mentioned the Beiyao Ancient Clan, offering help, she thought he had ulterior motives, speaking wildly. Now, it seemed he wasn’t falsely claiming, but truly capable — a real super expert.
Now she wondered if she should collaborate with him? The live sacrifice of the Beiyao Ancient Clan was approaching; without a plan, she’d fall victim and live sacrificed. She didn’t want to die, she hadn’t lived enough, she was a favored daughter of the heavens, not one to die easily.
Dongfang Ziyue was never one to bow to fate, nor someone to let others dictate her life. She wanted to rebel, learn from the previous generation’s clan women, and defect from the Beiyao Ancient Clan.
But the issue was, the previous generation’s Beiyao clan woman was protected by a very powerful man, a man rumored to have significant ties with the legendary Forbidden Ancient Clan from a hundred thousand years ago, so naturally, she could escape. But who would risk everything to protect her?
Thinking this, Dongfang Ziyue felt a pang of heartache. The previous generation’s clan woman had a man called the Holy War Demon Master, and now...who does she have? Could Lin Zifeng be the godsend meant for her?
Perhaps her fate should be in her own hands, not controlled by others! Life is hers, her fate like a demon, no one can take it away!
(This is the sixth update for today, with four more updates today! Huahua remembers, someone said that Huahua’s big update of ten Chapters would attract an Alliance Hierarch, hehe, hope Huahua isn’t being tricked by that big hero again~)
