Divine Brilliance - Chapter 873
Chapter 873: Cannot Afford To Offend
Zong Shou acknowledged before he stopped paying attention. He then looked up into the air.
These people were powerless to fight back which was why they could only do this. He couldn’t blame them for that.
With these millions of people here, he had to spend some more effort.
The Red Fire Burning Cavalry stepped in mid-air. They circled around in the air and then stopped. Their formations were really strict and orderly as they hung casually in mid-air.
He could also sense several strong Spiritual Senses which were shining down on this place.
A laugh broke out from afar, “I was wondering who it was, so it was you. So what? Your injuries slightly healed up and you are rushing over to ask to die? 10 days ago, that old nun Xiaoyue saved your life, today you probably won’t be so lucky anymore…”
He was looking down on and mocking him.
Zong Shou was able to discern that this person was Lu Xichen, who he saw 10 days ago in the back mountain of the convent. His lips curled coldly before he slightly shook his head. Zong Shou was too lazy to answer, kicking the shell of the turtle under him.
“Blue Fire, what are you doing standing still there, it’s time to act! Break the formation roots beneath the mountain. Nothing will be left in this place today!”
The eyes of the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle lit up as it laughed arrogantly. Its 12 pairs of Ice Wings spread out as it once again smashed towards the peak of the mountain.
Jingyin looked on and she instantly panicked. She instinctively exclaimed, “What are you doing? You can’t…”
Before she finished, there was a loud explosion. The mountain body shook as stone and sand scattered down. The formation restrictions in this area were also collapsing bit by bit.
The Blue Fire Xuan Turtle possessed immense strength. In the past, when Zong Shou injected in Wish Power, its power increased once more, increasing to 5 times its original amount!
After it laid out its Xuanwu Body Protecting Energy, the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle totally disregarded all the restrictions and spells within the formation.
Its 10,000-foot body waved the two Giant Shields in his hands. He smashed over, the aura was majestic and fierce.
Energy surged all over, dust and sand flew everywhere. The faces of the millions on the ground were all ashen white.
However, there was an external power protecting this area. Although the energy was vast, it didn’t harm them at all.
Zong Shou stood still on the back of the Turtle. Only then did he open his mouth to reply, “Didn’t you wish for all the women in Cangling World to no longer suffer the pain of losing their children? You saved my life so I will grant your wish. Naturally, I am going to fight my way up there and deal with the head of these convicts.”
When Jingyin heard this, she couldn’t help but sigh, the only thing she felt was disbelief.
However, before she even had time to think about it, thousands of arrows flew down from above. Many spells spread out and covered the area and the scenes quickly turned into an apocalypse.
In just an instant, the sky above calmed back down once more.
At the start, Jingyin didn’t know what was happening until she looked to the side. 100,000 feet away, Zong Shou actually used a secret ability to teleport those arrows and various spells millions of feet away.
Energy exploded out there and Spiritual Energy shook all about. A full 300,000 feet of space was crushed into dust.
A large portion of the Spiritual Talismans and restrictions in the formation were also destroyed.
However, the movement and commotion there didn’t affect this area. Even if the ripples from the attacks spread, with the protection of the Xuanwu Body Protecting Energy, they were perfectly fine.
The Blue Fire Xuan Turtle was totally unrestrained as it used its head and shield to smash about, breaching the giant formation.
It would smash down with its shield at anyone it was annoyed with, spitting blue flames at anyone who dared block it, freezing them into ice. It suppressed everything in its path. Then, it smashed onto the foot of the mountain, giving rise to a giant explosion.
At this moment, Spiritual Light shook the peak of the mountain. Numerous restrictions and Spiritual Patterns appeared in the air and instantly collapsed, turning into numerous specks of light that floated in the air.
There was a huge pivot of the formation where the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle knocked against.
After knocking into it, the strength of the mountain protecting Spiritual Formation of Tianyan Mountain instantly reduced by 20% The outer portion was even half exposed to the world.
At this moment, a cold scoff could be heard. A green shadow suddenly charged down from the peak.
It was Lu Xichen, dressed in green armor and riding a four-eyed six-legged red mount, who came to the front of the cavalry formation.
Instantly, a red flame burned up and swept the sky. An extremely sharp intent charged right toward where Zong Shou was standing.
“Anyone who dares offend my Tianyan Manor will be killed! You are asking to die! You really think that with such a God Beast Protector Beast you can do whatever you want in this world? Preposterous…”
The 10,000 Red Cavalry started to gallop, charging down from tens of thousands of feet in the air.
The red flames started to form into a drill.
The power of 10,000 Grade-6 Cavalry instantly merged into one. Lu Xichen was at the helm and when he was at 30,000 feet, he suddenly slashed down furiously with a sword.
He himself was peak Celestial Realm, this sword also gathered the power of all the cavalry, causing the entire space to twist and collapse!
Zong Shou squinted.
Beneath the intense flames, no space will remain! Combustion laws, the Burning Dao!
This is the true Sky Burning Flame…
Zong Shou had only seen it in the Bloodline Legacy. At this moment, Lu Xichen’s sword had a bit of the True Intent of the Sky Burning Flame.
However, he didn’t really care much about it, instead scoffing in disdain.
He couldn’t sit still?
The real amazing moments were just about to begin.
※※※※
Tianyan Manor, within the main hall.
Lu Yantian was sitting on the throne in the hall, totally calm and unperturbed.
His expression looked like he didn’t care at all about what was going on below. However, if one was familiar with him, one could see the darkness in his eyes.
“Interesting! Really interesting! This is the first time in 30 years that someone dared to attack me so arrogantly!”
Although he was laughing, it sent a chill down the spine of everyone within the hall.
Any slightly intelligent and sharp person could pick up the coldness and killing intent within his words.
Xiaoyue had a solemn expression on her face as she stood at the side.
She was also quite surprised regarding the matter today. She didn’t think that Zong Shou, who was still healing up in secluded meditation, could actually ride a Celestial Realm God Beast Protector Beast to kill his way over to Tianyan Mountain.
She felt really bitter and helpless in her heart. She was originally thinking about what she had to do to protect Jingyin.
Who knew that the person that she personally saved actually came over to cause such a huge mess?
This person’s strength was indiscernible, if he was able to heal up fully they might have been able to place some hopes on him.
However, just now she saw that this person’s meridians were no different from that of a normal person, he was like a normal person, unable to use any True Qi.
Since that was the case, then it was better if he remained in the convent, why did he come here? To cause trouble?
At this moment, she only hoped that this Tianyan Manor Head could just totally forget about her.
Thoughts rose up and changed in her mind as she contemplated many ideas regarding how to get away from all this.
However, the matter that she was afraid in her heart was the thing to happen in the end. Lu Yantian looked coldly over towards her.
“You have done great this time. 600 women, 90% successfully giving birth. Just now, I saw that they are all good quality Xiantian Fire Essence Marrow. They are more than enough for my needs.”
Xiaoyue kept silent and didn’t say a word. Being praised like that made her feel even sadder.
Since she went all out to take care of those pregnant women, all the more she more pain she felt taking the babies away when they were born.
Did she have to thank this evil devil for his praise and say things like that, how could she accept it?
Since begging for mercy was useless and she couldn’t fight back, she could only keep silent.
If it was as what she expected, he still had something to say after that…
As expected Lu Yantian’s tone changed, “However, what is up with this person? I heard Xichen say that he was healing in your convent? Judging from his appearance, he is similar to the person that I was searching for. How are you going to explain it?”
Xiaoyue predicted it and bowed, “When I saved him, it was before you were searching for him. Saving a person is better than building a 7-story pagoda. Since I saw him, I couldn’t just stand aside and do nothing? I also don’t know this person’s background.”
She continued, “A month ago, I compared their looks too. At that time, I didn’t think that they looked similar. So I didn’t expect that he was the person that you were looking for. If you want to use this as an excuse to punish me, then there is nothing I can do.”
Lu Yantian was startled and then gritted his teeth and laughed coldly, “You really are sharp, pushing the blame away so cleanly! I just want to ask if, in your heart, you really knew nothing! Forget it! I won’t punish you for what happened today, I will just increase the number for next month by 100. This thing is never to occur a second time…”
Xiaoyue listened on, her face turned ashen white and she looked dazed.
She gritted her teeth and then kept silent, unwilling to reply.
Lu Yantian didn’t care. Naturally, he had his own ways to make her do as he wished.
His lips curled up, a smile appeared on his face once more.
Although he lost a bit of his pride today, the mountain was in a total mess from all the smashing, but he didn’t lose too much.
“You can tell my Brother Wushuang that his enemy has appeared. If he doesn’t come down now, then he might regret…”
The moment he said this, a person walked out from beside him, “Manor Head, if you do that it would be hard to explain to the Celestial Dynasty and the two Country Rulers?”
Lu Yantian looked over impassively at the 40-year-old middle-aged man who was wearing a scholarly robe.
This was his official known as Lu Jun. His position was similar to Lu Xichen and their strength were too.
The only thing was that this person didn’t serve him…
He shook his head, his tone was filled with disdain as he burst out laughing.
“Explain what? I have tried my best to delay it, but Zong Shou wants to die, so it isn’t my fault. No matter who it is, they can’t blame me. Moreover, even if I want to hide it, I won’t be able to. There is such a commotion, so how can he not find out and come down!”
Saying that, Lu Yantian took out a red blood drop and placed it on his lips to taste.
“Tell Lu Xichen to show mercy. This person is a heir to our Lu Family and has Fangjue as his shield. He is also the grandson of the Saint Emperor. Even if the Saint Emperor hates the Zong Family to the bone, we can’t be the ones to claim his life. We can’t afford to offend them, just leave it to Brother Wushuang. What a waste…”
Before he finished, the mountain suddenly shook once more.
Lu Yantian frowned and then his expression changed.
