Sikong Mingyue's battle intent surged as he lunged towards the inn Qin Wentian was in.
Battle, he had to personally wash away the humiliation Qin Wentian had given him. At the same time, he wanted to regain his confidence and untie the knot in his heart.
Xiao Lan, Ye Wuque and Xiao Lộc were all staring in the direction of Qin Wentian. Although they weren't the ones who wanted to kill Qin Wentian back then, Qin Wentian's luck was truly too good. Even after being stabbed in the heart, he didn't die, and even reappeared after disappearing for a period of time.
However, even after hearing Sikong Mingyue's arrogant words, Qin Wentian still sat there quietly, drinking his wine, treating Sikong Mingyue as air.
"Teacher, let bygones be bygones. We should look forward to the future." Qin Wentian could feel Mustang's gloomy mood, and he tried to persuade him. He was afraid that his teacher would be too impulsive.
Mustang inclined his head and glanced at Qin Wentian. He didn't expect that this disciple of his would be able to see through his thoughts. Smiling, he replied, "Mhm, look forward to the future. However, some debts have to be repaid."
The two of them conversed as though there was no one else present. The battle in the air and on the ground didn't attract their attention at all. Even Sikong Mingyue's challenge was directly ignored.
This caused Sikong Mingyue's countenance to turn unsightly. His battle intent grew stronger and stronger, and with a wave of his palms, an ancient slaughter imprint appeared, blasting towards the space above the heads of Qin Wentian and Mustang.
With a deafening boom, the roof of the inn was directly smashed into smithereens. Above Qin Wentian and Mustang was the sky.
A few silhouettes appeared beside Qin Wentian and Mustang, floating in the air. Rain, who was clad in white, was among them. These were the Yuanfu students of the Emperor Star Academy. Upon seeing Xiao Lan and the rest staring at Qin Wentian like tigers preying on their prey, they immediately rushed over to protect him.
After the previous lesson, the Emperor Star Academy wouldn't allow Qin Wentian to be in a chaotic battle again. This was to prevent him from being ambushed by experts.
"Looks like I overestimated you." Sikong Mingyue swept his gaze across the crowd, as a calm smile appeared on his face. He wasn't angered at all. Since Qin Wentian didn't dare to fight, there was no need for Sikong Mingyue to be angered. However, with the current situation today, even if Qin Wentian didn't want to fight, it would be difficult for him to do so.
Qin Wentian acted as though he didn't hear Sikong Mingyue's words. In truth, when he saw Sikong Mingyue stepping out to challenge him, he didn't care about him at all. Although Sikong Mingyue was extremely powerful, with Qin Wentian's current understanding of his own strength, he should be able to deal with him easily.
Hence, the current him didn't even view Sikong Mingyue as a worthy opponent. Naturally, this wasn't the reason why Qin Wentian didn't want to fight. Even if he didn't view Sikong Mingyue as a worthy opponent, he would still be able to deal with Sikong Mingyue in passing. The reason why he didn't act was because he wanted to sit down and drink with Teacher Mustang.
From the gloomy tone of Teacher Mustang's voice, Qin Wentian couldn't help but feel a little sad. As a disciple, he wasn't doing his job well. If it wasn't for Teacher Mustang back then, how would there be the current Qin Wentian?
"Teacher." Qin Wentian didn't try to persuade Mustang any further. He continued to pour wine for Mustang, and the two of them drank mouthful after mouthful, feeling extremely satisfied.
"In my entire life, the thing I'm most proud of is having all of you as my disciples. Although, I didn't teach you guys much, especially you. In fact, I didn't even do what a teacher should do." Mustang placed his wine cup down, as he smiled at Qin Wentian. After which, he slowly stood up, and his gaze abruptly turned sharp as he swept his gaze onto Ye Wuque, Wu Chong, Wang Teng, as well as Xiao Lan.
At this moment, Mustang's gaze was incomparably sharp, as though it could penetrate through a person. An intense killing intent radiated from him.
Not only did he want to kill Ye Wuque, he also wanted to kill Wu Chong, Wang Teng, and Xiao Lan. If it wasn't for Xiao Lan, the Royal Clan wouldn't have dared to fall out with the Emperor Star Academy so quickly.
However, Mustang was very clear on how difficult it was to kill Xiao Lan. Not to mention his own strength, the power he represented was something that even the Emperor Star Academy couldn't afford to offend. The Xiao Faction of the Nine Mystical Palace was like a gigantic mountain pressing down on him. He knew that even if the Emperor Star Academy dared to kill Chu Tianjiao, they wouldn't dare to be too ruthless towards Xiao Lan, even if Xiao Lan was here to destroy the Emperor Star Academy.
Although this was a tragedy, it was the truth. Xiao Lan could only rely on himself to deal with the Emperor Star Academy, while the Nine Mystical Palace stood in the shadows. If they killed Xiao Lan, what the Emperor Star Academy would have to face would be the wrath of the Xiao Faction of the Nine Mystical Palace.
Many buildings in the surroundings collapsed one after another, causing the shop owners to feel heartache. However, in the face of these two gigantic existences, they could only concede defeat.
In the air above Sake Street, other than the two combatants, there were also two old men standing opposite each other. Both of them were exceedingly powerful, and just by standing there, they gave off the feeling that they were as tall as a mountain. They had always been in this area, and the Royal Clan was prepared to attack the Emperor Star Academy at any moment. It was just that the Emperor Star Academy had broken the stalemate earlier than planned.
"Their preparations are truly ample." Xiao Lan glanced at the four old men standing in the air, as he stomped heavily on the ground. In an instant, spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the surface of the inn he was in. The cracks spread out rapidly, and in an instant, rumbling sounds rang out unceasingly as the inn he was in collapsed, transforming into a pile of rubble.
In his eyes, killing intent could be seen.
Fine, since the Emperor Star Academy had long prepared for this battle, let's fight then. He also hoped to settle things as soon as possible.
With the departure of the Azure Emperor Palace, Xiao Lan gradually lost his patience. Could it be that the Emperor Star Academy really didn't have any secrets regarding the Azure Emperor?
"I want Qin Wentian alive, kill the others without mercy." Xiao Lan calmly stated. He could faintly sense that there were some secrets hidden on the body of Qin Wentian.
As the sound of Xiao Lan's voice faded, the people around him stepped out. In an instant, a dazzling display of Astral Souls caused the hearts of the spectators to tremble.
The Crown Prince of Snowcloud, Xiao Lv.This was the first time he made a move. The Astral Souls hovering above his head were exceptionally dazzling, they were actually Zither Astral Souls.
A melody abruptly gushed forth, and in an instant, a desolate killing intent permeated the air. This melody enveloped the people around him, as though it was able to strengthen their will to fight.
Wang Teng, Wu Chong, and Sikong Mingyue all entered a mysterious state of mind. However, the only thing Qin Wentian and the rest could feel was a towering killing intent.
A raging wind gusted by, as reinforcements arrived from afar. These reinforcements were none other than the alliance leader of the Heavenly Demon Alliance, Xue Lengfeng, and the alliance leader of the Asura Alliance, Du Yidao. They had been paying attention to Xiao Lv.Very quickly, both sides clashed against each other.
"Du Yidao has also broken through." Sensing the aura emanating from Du Yidao, Mustang could tell that he was at the 3rd level of Yuanfu.
Mustang stood up, and his Astral Souls erupted forth as he walked towards Ye Wuque.
Ye Wuque similarly released his Astral Souls. Although he was arrogant, he would never underestimate his opponents. This was especially so for Mustang, who was a teacher of the Emperor Star Academy. Although Mustang's talent couldn't be compared to his, Mustang had been at the Yuanfu Realm for so many years.
Not only that, Mustang's cultivation base was at the 3rd level of Yuanfu, the same level as some of the top-tier students.
The two of them instantly clashed against each other, both of them exuding a terrifying killing intent. Mustang's attacks were more experienced, while Ye Wuque's attacks were more domineering. Naturally, Ye Wuque was clearly at a disadvantage.
Qin Wentian stood there, watching the battle between Mustang and Ye WuQue. Seeing how Mustang risked his life to kill Ye WuQue, he understood his teacher's intentions. He didn't move, and only stood there, watching Mustang. He didn't wish to see any mishaps befall his teacher.
From afar, there were many spectators paying attention to this battle. Although they weren't the strongest, the two of them were the most famous in the Royal Capital.
The Nine Mystical Palace, Xiao Lan; the Emperor Star Academy, Qin Wentian. Currently, the Nine Mystical Palace was no longer a secret in the Royal Capital. Xiao Lan was a member of that terrifying power.
And now, Xiao Lan had given the order to capture Qin Wentian alive. As for the others, they were to be killed without mercy.
"You really have the mood to be so carefree." Sikong Mingyue had yet to act. He had an intense obsession in his heart, and this obsession was none other than Qin Wentian.
However, at this moment, a shadowy figure abruptly appeared behind Qin Wentian. It was as though he had always been there.
Evidently, he wouldn't allow the incident of Qin Wentian's death to happen again.
Sikong Mingyue's gaze froze as he stared at the shadowy figure. Could it be that he really couldn't touch Qin Wentian today?
"Hehe." Sikong Mingyue laughed, as hints of mockery could be heard in his voice.
What he didn't know was that at this moment, Qin Wentian was looking at him with a strange look in his eyes. It was as though he was looking at someone courting death.
After which, under the watchful eyes of Sikong Mingyue, Qin Wentian's silhouette slowly floated up into the air.
"Yuanfu." The hearts of the spectators trembled as they witnessed this scene. Qin Wentian had officially stepped into Yuanfu.
"Hu, his cultivation speed is truly fast." Many in the crowd sighed. If this was the case, Qin Wentian should already have the strength to contend against Sikong Mingyue.
"That's good." Sikong Mingyue's Astral Soul erupted forth. His third Astral Soul shone with a faint golden light. This Astral Soul originated from the 4th Heavenly Layer, and it was a Demonic Beast Astral Soul – Sword Eagle.
"Ranked 316 in the Warbeast Index, Sword Eagle. Focuses on offense." Qin Wentian muttered in a low voice as he stared at the Demonic Beast Astral Soul.
The first and second Astral Souls were respectively: Seven Slaughters Astral Soul and Sword Astral Soul, both originated from the 3rd Heavenly Layer. As for the third Astral Soul, Sword Eagle, originated from the 4th Heavenly Layer. No wonder Sikong Mingyue wanted to battle so badly. Such a combination of Astral Souls, in the entire Chu Country, was truly terrifying.
"Seems like you're quite knowledgeable. After today's battle, I shall wash away the humiliation I suffered in the past." Sikong Mingyue drew in a deep breath. His three Astral Souls seemed as though they were about to materialize. Compared to when he was at the Arterial Circulation Realm, the amplification effect was also much stronger.
A terrifying killing intent radiated out from Sikong Mingyue's body.
The terrifying sharpness of his Astral Souls gushed towards Qin Wentian, and the crowd only saw a beam of light flashing past. At this moment, Sikong Mingyue's entire body was enveloped by a halo of slaughter, incomparably dazzling. In the blink of an eye, the beam of light bore down on Qin Wentian. His body was akin to a sword, as he slashed out. The pupils of the crowd involuntarily narrowed. Under this strike, would Qin Wentian's body be sliced into two?
A demonic light flashed in Qin Wentian's eyes. A terrifying gust of wind blew against his long hair, as a blood-colored intent permeated his palms. Right now, he could easily activate the power of his bloodline.
Within his body, the Yuanfu that was connected to the Demon Sovereign Astral Soul roared, as terrifying amounts of Astral Energy gushed forth. The crowd only saw Qin Wentian lifting his palms, as a palm imprint blasted out, causing the faces of many to pale. Wasn't Qin Wentian a little too arrogant?
"RUMBLE!" Sikong Mingyue, who was brimming with a terrifying killing intent, slashed towards Qin Wentian's palm imprint. However, his body halted, as the gigantic palm imprint seemed to contain a boundless amount of energy, causing him to be unable to advance any further.
What kind of palm was this? It was even more terrifying than a mountain. At this moment, Sikong Mingyue's countenance lost all color. He inclined his head and stared at Qin Wentian, only to see that his opponent was still as calm as before. Other than the fact that his eyes had turned a little demonic, there weren't many fluctuations to his countenance. Only now did Sikong Mingyue understand the meaning behind Qin Wentian's indifferent gaze. It was as though he was looking at the eyes of a dead man.
"You are truly seeking death." Qin Wentian calmly spat out. Sikong Mingyue's body abruptly trembled, as though he had sensed danger, as he retreated backwards.
Only to see Qin Wentian lifting his palms once again, as a terrifying surge of demonic Qi could be sensed in his palms. His palms were akin to the palms of a demonic beast, as they blasted out. Kuji Imprint. Given Qin Wentian's terrifying physique, as well as the explosive Astral Energy in his palms, how terrifying would the might of this attack be?
Desolation, desolation, a true annihilation. Sikong Mingyue's palms were directly crushed apart as the palm imprint slammed into his body. After which, the spectators only saw Sikong Mingyue's body trembling weakly in the air as he slowly descended from the skies.
Sikong Mingyue, one of the Duo Prides of Snowcloud, a demon-level genius whose 3rd Astral Soul originated from the 4th Heavenly Layer. Today, did he want to wash away the humiliation he had suffered?
When the crowd saw the Kuji Imprint crushing Sikong Mingyue to death, the impact they felt was indescribable!
