Chapter 2683: Brother Yao’s Support!
“What?”
Every inch of Li Yao’s skin was under the bombardment of Li Jialing’s storms, as if thousands of needles were poking him.
His bloodshot eyes were filled with disbelief. “This is so cool. Tell me exactly how you trained yourself to get it. Why could you have developed such a cool form? It’s even more awesome than me in the peak of the Divinity Transformation Stage. How can it happen? I won’t allow it!”
“Huh…”
Li Jialing thought for a moment and said in embarra.s.sment, “Actually, I didn’t do anything on purpose. I just trained casually, and I became as handsome as this.”
“Ah!”
Li Yao shrieked, and the bloodiness from his left eye surrounded him and picked up the remnants all over the ground, gathering them into an appalling enormous saber.
Boom!
The saber of remains was slashed at Li Jialing, while Li Yao said in a heartfelt way, “Jialing, you’re on the wrong way! Such precious spiritual energy should be used to fulfill your cells and your soul, instead of making those cool sounds and visual effects!”
“I don’t want that either!”
Li Jialing crossed his arms, and the golden fire and the purple dragons entwined and protected his face, blocking Li Yao’s unstoppable slash and even crus.h.i.+ng the saber of remains into pieces again.
The young man roared, “I think this is too eye-catching too. I’ll definitely be the center of attention if I transform in a battlefield. But I can’t control myself. Whenever I upgrade myself to the ultimate form, some of my spiritual energy will flow out naturally and get me into this look. What can I do?”
“It’s alright. Let Brother Yao help you!”
Li Yao grinned hideously. His bulging veins circled before his chest like nine b.l.o.o.d.y dragons and unfolded a pair of b.l.o.o.d.y wings on his back. Two crystals the size of goose eggs appeared in his hands again, with dazzling electric arcs in them. “Actually, Brother Yao was ten times cooler than you before, but I’ve learned to abandon the superficial things. Now, let me teach this precious lesson to you!”
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Li Yao stepped forward quickly.
After every step, the enormous training field would shake as if it were about to fall, until he disappeared in the end, replaced by an overwhelming tsunami of blood!
Li Jialing, on the other hand, unleashed his light and heat nonstop like a gold volcano that was erupting in the blood ocean.
The two of them fought a hundred rounds in the blink of an eye. While Li Jialing was knocked away by Li Yao dozens of times, Li Yao had been hit by Li Jialing’s magnificent purple dragons too. Neither of them was really hurt, but the wall, the floor, the gravity control units, and the defense rune arrays all over the training field suffered. It was not like the training of two experts, but more like the mutual bombardment of two super a.r.s.enal wars.h.i.+ps in this tiny room!
Very soon, shocking footprints, dents, and cracks had appeared on the floor, which was as soft as mud now.
Enormous human-shaped marks could be found on the wall too. Some of them were even half a meter deep!
Noises were bursting out everywhere. Both the gravity control units and the defense rune arrays were about to be crushed by the aftermath of their battle.
The lights were also flas.h.i.+ng, until all the illumination rune arrays exploded and the training room fell into darkness. However, a golden fire and a red tide were still colliding in complicated shapes, as if they were two lines that had tangled.
Boom!
After another astounding explosion, the defense rune arrays finally collapsed, and a huge part of the dome fell too.
The whole training field was as vulnerable as if it had been soaked in water for three days, and it might collapse at any moment.
“Hu… Hu… Hu… Hu…”
Both Li Yao and Li Jialing panted quickly in the darkness.
“This is exhilarating!”
Li Yao couldn’t have sounded more excited. “This is more like what Vulture Li Yao’s brother and Wuying Qi 2.0’s heir can do!”
“I’m never more satisfied either!”
Li Jialing was even more ecstatic than he was. “It seems that only Brother Yao can make me unleash all my potential! I feel great! I think I can still fight! Brother Yao, I know that you’re not trying your best, are you? Just bring it on. Don’t fear that you might hurt me. I’m fine!”
“Really?”
Li Yao sounded doubtful. “I’ve made some breakthroughs in the past months. I’m afraid I won’t be able to control myself if I unleash all my power!”
“It’s fine. I can handle it!”
Li Jialing said eagerly, “I’m confident in my ultimate form!”
“Fine then!”
Li Yao took a deep breath and closed his eyes in the darkness.
Then, thunderous music burst out from his abdomen, his head, and the air around him at the same time.
“This is…”
Li Jialing gasped hard. “What’s this?”
“Music.”
Li Yao said matter-of-factly, “Do you not know that my domain is triggered by music? The louder my background music is, the more powerful I will be. Together with the mental attack that I launch with my song as the medium, I’m unstoppable!
“In the past months, I’ve reviewed the battle with Wuying Qi and realized that cultivating and singing can definitely work together! So, I practiced a few new songs, but n.o.body was willing to listen to them. Long Yangjun, Boss Bai, and the Fist King ran away whenever I told them that I got a new song. Even Xiaoming and Wenwen have no time! It’s great that I still have you, my good brother!
“Are you ready? If you are… Behold my 120% soundwave attack!”
“…”
After a half-second daze, Li Jialing suddenly spewed out blood. “Ouch, it hurts so much! No, Brother Yao, I don’t think I can handle it anymore! I think I just suffered internal wounds. I can barely control myself anymore. I’m vomiting blood. I give up!”
“Huh?”
Li Yao was disappointed. “Seriously? I thought that your ultimate transformation should be something better.”
“Yes, it should be. Brother Yao, you’re right that strength is more important than superficialness. I’m too… weak after all.”
Li Jialing said quickly, “It seems that Brother Yao is always Brother Yao however stronger I’ve become. I’m no match for you at all. I can’t take it anymore. Brother Yao, I have to treat my wounds!”
“Oh? Is that so?”
Li Yao was suspicious. “Did I really hurt you so heavily?”
“Of course! The whole training field was almost blown up by you, and you think it was not heavy?”
Li Jialing hurried to run out. “This is just a minor training game. We really shouldn’t have torn this place down. I can’t carry on anymore. Brother Yao, you’re so much stronger than me!”
The young man turned back to what he was as he slipped out not like a lion but more like a weasel.
Five minutes later, in the medical room next to the training field…
Both of them were experienced fighters, so none of their wounds were critical. So, they simply treated each other without asking for a doctor’s help. After they were done, they sipped medical drugs on the top of the medical cabins.
Both of them laughed when they saw each other’s miserable looks, but they grimaced in pain as their wounds were stretched when they laughed.
“Hey…”
After a while, Li Yao nudged Li Jialing and asked, “The queen said that you had something important to tell. What is it that you’re keeping so mysteriously?”
Li Jialing coughed and lowered his head in embarra.s.sment without saying anything.
“Huh?”
Li Yao said, “That’s a rare reaction. It must be something special and important. Come on, tell Brother Yao!”
“Brother Yao…”
Looking at the stripes that were vaguely flowing on his palm, Li Jialing made up his mind and said, “After the battle just now, you should see that I’m no longer a boy but a real man. If I make a tough decision as a man, will you support me, Brother Yao?”
“Ohhhhh!”
Li Yao blinked his eyes and grew excited. He patted Li Jialing’s back and said, “I completely understand you. Hahahaha! Congratulations! It’s indeed very important! What’s her name? Whoever she is, Brother Yao will definitely root for you!”
“Huh?”
Stunned, Li Jialing stammered, “S-She? What are you talking about, Brother Yao?”
“The girl who turned you from a boy into a man!”
Li Yao found it odd. “Weren’t you going to share it with me? How could you have turned from a boy into a man without a girl? Could it be… Hiss… Are you saying…? Oh, I got it. No wonder you seem so reluctant and hesitant and ask for my support. Well, it’s actually fine. I… I totally support you. Really. We’re in a different time now, and men and women are the same. This is an age when human beings are about to get rid of their sh.e.l.ls, and the communication of minds instead of bodies is more important. Maybe human beings will fall in love with information lives in the future. So, I definitely support you!”
Li Jialing opened his fingers and buried his face in his hands.
“It’s my fault. I really shouldn’t have put it so subtly.”
The young man said helplessly, “Let me just be straightforward. Do you know that Emperor Chengwu, the fake emperor that the four families elected, has been crowned on the Song family’s base?”
