Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 128
Chapter 128: Jue Tianlan’s Intention To Steal The Scepter Of Light, I Don’t Even Know What’s Happening
Inside the great hall, the elders of the Winged Human Tribe tried persistently to persuade Lan Yu to stay by playing good cop bad cop.
After all, she was a Young Emperor who had been prophesied by the divine predictor to achieve feats that would be no less than the Emperors of Old.
In terms of her value, even Jue Tianlan could not hope to match it.
“I’m deeply grateful for your intentions, fellow elders. However, as I said before, my only wish is to be my Master’s side my whole life. So there’s no need to say more.”
Lan Yu spoke with determination.
With that, she was prepared to leave.
“Stop.” At that point, Jue Tianlan could no longer hold back his words. “What’s so good about that Chu Kuangren, huh? Did he give you some sort of bewitching drug to make you so faithful and devoted to him?”
Jue Tianlan’s heart was full of hatred!
He admitted his admiration for Lan Yu. Whether it was her appearance, aptitude, identity, she was a very good match for him.
However, all his pleas and persuasion were returned with her cold attitude instead. In contrast, Chu Kuangren did nothing and yet Lan Yu was so devoted that she was even willing to abandon the entire Winged Human Tribe for him.
He was unsatisfied, unconvinced, and extremely jealous.
“You’ll never be a match for my Master’s kindness.” Seeing through Jue Tianlan’s hostility, Lan Yu replied with an indifferent tone.
“Is he better than me in terms of combat ability?”
“He’s also ten thousand times more handsome than you.”
Jue Tianlan was speechless.
At that point, he had completely given up on pursuing her.
“You can leave, but the Scepter of Light stays.” After taking a deep breath, Jue Tianlan said indifferently.
Lan Yu frowned slightly. “On whose authority?”
“The Scepter of Light is the symbol of the highest authority in my Winged Human Tribe and it has been wandering outside the tribe for long enough. I wouldn’t have minded if you agreed to return it to the tribe, but since you insist on leaving now, I cannot allow you to leave with the scepter,” Jue Tianlan said.
‘I might not be able to convince you to stay, but the Sage Ruler Weapon must.’
Based on his talents, it would not take long for Jue Tianlan to gain control and rule over the Winged Human Tribe with the Scepter of Light’s help. By then, the elders would have to listen to him too.
The other elders exchanged glances with each other as a signal to block Lan Yu’s exit. Even the benevolent old man’s expression had changed as he stared at Lan Yu with chills in his eyes.
“Want my scepter, in your dreams!” Lan Yu’s body flashed with white light as she donned a set of silver armor. She was ready to fight.
“Do it!”
Jue Tianlan took the lead in the attack with both his palms, which contained a terrifying Daoist Rhyme, stretched out. The other elders had also leaped forth with their attacks at the same time, and instantly, the poise of the Honorables was locked on to Lan Yu.
They wanted the battle to end as soon as possible!
Despite how gifted Lan Yu was, she had just ascended to the Battle Monarch Realm recently. However, among the opponents she was facing, one was an ancient sky-pride whose strength was not weaker than her, while the rest were the Winged Human Tribe’s elders who were all Honorables.
It was hard for Lan Yu to hold her own against the joined forces of these people.
“Stop fighting and give up!”
Jue Tianlan took an opportunity to unleash a palm attack, blasting its overbearing force towards Lan Yu before it pushed her back and blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.
Just when he was about to take advantage of the situation to end her, a sudden surge of Domain Energy appeared out of nowhere and rendered him immobile!
“Such immense pressure, how’s this possible!” Jue Tianlan was in the Battle Monarch Realm and yet his spiritual power was disseminated. He felt as if the weight of a hundred thousand great mountains was on him. Even moving a finger was a difficult effort.
Outside the great hall, Chu Kuangren slowly approached them with an expression as cold as a frozen iceberg. Upon seeing the bloody-mouthed Lan Yu, his eyes revealed a terrifying killing intent.
“Chu Kuangren, this is an internal matter concerning our Winged Human Tribe…”
“Die.”
Jue Tianlan was about to say something but Chu Kuangren immediately rushed to him and lifted his hand, unleashing the Human Mountain Stamp!
The violent power of the Human Mountain Stamp erupted within a split second before it landed mercilessly on Jue Tianlan’s skull.
A bang was heard and like an exploding watermelon, red and white-colored matter exploded everywhere. Jue Tianlan’s head was blown apart!
The ancient sky-pride, a Young Emperor of this generation had fallen!
“Young Emperor!”
“Curse you, Chu Kuangren!”
The other Honorables at the scene did not expect that Chu Kuangren would kill Jue Tianlan off without saying anything.
That was the Young Emperor of their Winged Human Tribe!
Yet just like that, he was now dead before their very eyes.
This instantly made a few of the Honorables extremely enraged that they were almost driven to the brink of madness!
The benevolent elder who from before then activated his spiritual power to attack Chu Kuangren.
“Looking to die?” Chu Kuangren raised his arm and unleashed another Human Mountain Stamp.
The impact of that horrifying energy instantly sent that Winged Human elder flying, which shattered his limbs and bones and ruptured his internal organs. That elder fell on to the ground in a bloody pulp like a plop of mud, with no sign of him breathing.
Upon hearing the commotion, the Lord of the Winged Human Tribe rushed to the scene just in time to witness Chu Kuangren killing the Winged Human elder. When he saw Jue Tianlan’s dead body on the ground after that, his body trembled with shock.
Although angry, he was still the Lord of the tribe and he must maintain his sense of reason. Holding back his fury, the Lord of the Winged Human Tribe walked into the great hall. “What in the world is going on here!”
“I don’t know either.” Chu Kuangren casually retracted his arm as he held a mysteriously yellow Emperor’s Essence in his grasps.
That was the Primordial Emperor’s Essence which belonged to Jue Tianlan
Chu Kuangren’s words almost made the Lord of the Winged Human Tribe and others spew out blood.
‘You don’t know?’
‘You’re the one who killed Jue Tianlan, and you say you don’t know?’
“But they did hurt Lan Yu,” Chu Kuangren continued. He truly had no idea what had happened. However, since those people dared to lay their fingers on Lan Yu, it was enough of a reason for Chu Kuangren to kill.
The Lord of the Winged Human Tribe took a look at Lan Yu and when they noticed that she was indeed injured, he asked, “Lan Yu, what happened here?”
Lan Yu then told them everything in detail, about how Jue Tianlan and others wanted to steal the Scepter of Light. The more the Lord of the Winged Human Tribe listened, the darker his face became.
He stared fiercely at the elders who sided with Jue Tianlan. “What the hell do you think you’re doing? Lan Yu is the one who saved our tribe, and now you want to kill the donkey? Where the hell did you find the courage to commit such atrocity!”
“My Lord, the Scepter of Light is a matter of great importance, and since Lan Yu refused to return to the tribe, we then decided to listen to the Young Emperor’s plan,” one of the elders replied, pushing every responsibility onto the recently dead Jue Tianlan.
All they did was listen to the Young Emperor’s orders, so he must be the true culprit.
“Do you really have to follow his orders just because he ordered you to? Have you become dogs after living for so many years?”
“My Lord, it doesn’t matter how all of this happened. What’s important is that Chu Kuangren has killed both the Young Emperor and the Fourth Elder!” one of the elders said loudly as he stared at Chu Kuangren with angry eyes.
The Lord of the Winged Human Tribe’s heart trembled. He was terribly shaken and saddened by Jue Tianlan’s death, but the person who killed him was Chu Kuangren!
Chu Kuangren was not only overwhelmingly powerful given that he killed the clone of the Demon Emperor, but he also had an Honorable Supreme and two Honorables as his protector. If the Lord of the Winged Human Tribe insisted on violence, the people of his tribe would not be met with a peaceful end.
Not to mention that both of them had saved the entire Winged Human Tribe as well. If they were to turn against those two so quickly, how would the other races and orthodoxies perceive them when word spreads?
“Jue Tianlan incited the people of the tribe to kill Lan Yu, so his death is well deserved! As for those who aided him as accomplices, you all shall reflect on your mistakes for the next ten years, and shall not leave the city without my permission.”
The Lord of the Winged Human Tribe made his decision in an instant.
“My Lord, I’m not satisfied with this judgment!” Just as one of the accomplice elders was going to speak out, he was immediately stopped by the other elders who rushed to hold him back.
“You must follow what our Lord says!”
“Just shut up already, you’ve caused enough trouble here.”
The death of a Young Emperor was a great loss to the Winged Human Tribe. Although the higher-ups of the tribe were extremely heartbroken by that, they knew that clashing head-on with Chu Kuangren was not a wise move.
