Chapter 894: I’m Just Kidding
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The moment Duan Ling Tian's words left his mouth, all the eyes around him instantly locked onto Cha Bai. It was as if they all wanted to see whether he dared to swear by the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation.
If he dared to, then it meant that Duan Ling Tian was the one making slanderous accusations.
However, if he dared not, it meant that he did indeed threaten Duan Ling Tian earlier.
"Hurmph!" When faced with the eyes around his surroundings, Cha Bai turned a blind eye to all of them. Nonchalantly, he swept a glance across Duan Ling Tian as he snorted, "Why should a dignified Peak Master like me swear on account of a small Wood Peak disciple like you? You're not qualified at all!"
"Since Peak Master Cha Bai already said so, then I…" As he said that, Duan Ling Tian paused and suddenly pinched his finger till it bled. A drop of fresh blood rose up into the sky.
The moment Cha Bai saw this, his face instantly turned pale. He could guess what Duan Ling Tian was about to do.
Although he wanted to stop Duan Ling Tian, he noticed that Qi Yu, the Peak Master of Wood Peak, had his eyes trained on him.
He had no doubts that if he dared to do anything to Duan Ling Tian, Qi Yu would definitely lash at him!
"I, Duan Ling Tian, take an oath on my own blood… If what I said earlier contained even a word of lie, I'm willing to let the Nine-Nine Tribulation smite me!" The instance Duan Ling Tian's words left his mouth, it was as if the thunder in the sky became agitated, and a total of nine claps of thunder reverberated in the sky. However, no signs of thunder punishment descended from the sky.
Bustle!
All h.e.l.l instantly broke loose within the Five Element Sect's disciples.
Other than Fire Peak disciples, the moment the eyes of the other disciples from the other four Peaks landed on Cha Bai, hints of disdain could be seen in their eyes.
"A dignified Peak Master of Fire Peak dares to threaten an ordinary disciple huh? That's so low and below his dignity!"
"I wonder how this person became the Peak Master of Fire Peak in the first place! Don't tell me that last time they did not consider one's character when each of these Peaks picked their Peak Masters!"
"I guess having this kind of Peak Master in Fire Peak most probably means that the disciples' characters are not that good either."
…
The disciples from the Four Peaks continued to discuss in a lively manner. They were absolutely blunt with their words.
When the disciples from the Fire Peak heard those words, none of them could say anything in defense at all. All that they could do was secretly glare at Cha Bai, the Peak Master of their Fire Peak, with full resentment.
In their opinions, had it not been for Cha Bai in the first place, they would not have been ridiculed like this.
For a time, many Fire Peak disciples started to consider switching to another Peak.
Before Duan Ling Tian made his oath earlier, Cha Bai's face had already turned ghastly pale. Now that he heard the discussion of the four Peaks disciples, he was so furious that his blood was boiling in anger.
Whoos.h.!.+
At this moment, a ghost-like figure suddenly appeared in front of Cha Bai.
"Qi Yu!"
Cha Bai who could only see the quick flash across his eyes immediately recognized the person before him. His face instantly changed dramatically. He hastily activated the Origin Energy in his body as he tried to stretch his hands out to block the attack.
Unfortunately, he was still too slow.
WHAM!
A loud bang resonated in the air, deafening the ears with its thunderous sound.
In the next moment, everybody could see what was happening.
The instance Qi Yu appeared in front of Cha Bai, Cha Bai was sent flying like an arrow that was shot out from a bow. The blood that was spurting out of his mouth gushed out in a frenzy.
After he was sent flying to about 100 meters away, Cha Bai barely managed to stabilize himself. However, although he had immediately taken the wound-curing medicinal pill, blood was still spurting out of his mouth non-stop. It was only after a few moments later that it finally showed signs of stopping.
This time, Guo Chong, the Sect Leader of the Five Element Sect only frowned and did not intervene.
Perhaps, he also thought that Cha Bai had gone too far this time.
"How powerful!"
"In just a flash, Peak Master Qi Yu appeared in front of Peak Master Cha Bai, and Peak Master Cha Bai's entire person immediately got sent flying and is severely wounded."
"I didn't even get to see clearly how Peak Master Qi Yu arrived in front of Peak Master Cha Bai or how he sent Peak Master Cha Bai flying."
"Nonsense! Without a cultivation base at the Void Transformation or above, do you really expect to see Peak Master Qi Yu's movement clearly?"
…
Other than the Fire Peak disciples who had a gloomy expression on their faces, the disciples from the other Four Peaks' eyes lit up instantly. They were shocked by Qi Yu's tyrannical strength.
"Did you see that? That's the Peak Master of our Wood Peak!"
"I'm a disciple of Wood Peak you know! Jealous eh?"
…
The group of Wood Peak disciples was beaming with joy. They could feel the grievances that had acc.u.mulated all these years no longer existed anymore, and they were all standing up in high spirits.
At this moment, they were proud to be disciples from Wood Peak.
"Cha Bai, I'm warning you. If something happens to Duan Ling Tian in the future, I'll kill that direct disciple of yours with my own hands!" Qi Yu warned coldly as he looked at Cha Bai.
"Q-Qi Yu, you…" Cha Bai turned pale at once. Before he could catch his breath, blood gushed out again from his mouth. It prompted him to spit out two mouthfuls of blood. Immediately, he glared fiercely at Qi Yu.
Qi Yu did not pay any more attention to him and proceeded to return to the side of Wood Peak's members.
"Thank you, Peak Master," Duan Ling Tian thanked Qi Yu for avenging him.
"As long as I'm here, Cha Bai will never dare to touch you," Qi Yu smiled.
In the distance, when Huang Daniu, who was standing in the air beside Gold Peak, heard Duan Ling Tian exposed how Cha Bai, the Peak Master of Fire Peak, had threatened him, he was furious.
Although Qi Yu had avenged Duan Ling Tian and severely injured Cha Bai, he still thought that it was not enough to vent his anger.
"Hu Fei, you're as useless as your master! Oh, yeah, come to think of it, my hand does hurt a little from the two slaps that I gave you earlier. I really must say that the skin on your face is indeed pretty thick," Huang Daniu proclaimed nonchalantly as he looked at Hu Fei. There was no lack of sarcasm in his words.
Hu Fei, who was already enraged by Duan Ling Tian's words, just saw his master severely wounded by the Peak Master of Wood Peak with his own eyes. Needless to say, he was now completely filled with fury and wrath and was ready to explode at any time.
Now, after hearing Huang Daniu's mocking remarks, he could no longer hold it in any further.
"Huang Daniu! You're going to die!" Hu Fei who was completely furious yelled. His entire being flew forward and charged towards Huang Daniu.
The moment he flew forward, blazing flames erupted instantly from his body. It was like he had turned into a fiery behemoth with his b.l.o.o.d.y mouth opened wide while he charged towards Huang Daniu.
Heaven and Earth Phenomenon solidified and took form in the sky immediately. 180 ancient horned dragons' silhouettes rushed out and pounced towards Huang Daniu as they bared their claws and teeth.
Seventh Level Void Interpretation!
Seventh Level Intermediate Fire Concept!
Consumed with wrath, Hu Fei struck with all his might. He had only one intention in his mind:
To kill Huang Daniu.
Only with this way he could take revenge for himself, avenge his master and wipe out the hatred in his heart!
"Good timing!"
Faced with a charging Hu Fei who was consumed with fury, no different with a fiery behemoth, Huang Daniu's eyes lit up as the Origin Energy that had long acc.u.mulated in his body erupted at once.
For a moment, the Sixth Level Intermediate Earth Concept merged with his Origin energy and transformed into a vast khaki-colored energy and engulfed his entire body.
Moreover, the khaki-colored power seemed to also resonate with Gold Peak that was nearby. That was the Earth Concept interacting with the Earth Energy as it borrowed energy from it.
Whoos.h.!.+
All of a sudden, 185 silhouettes of ancient horned dragons immediately appeared on top of Huang Daniu's head. He had 5 more ancient horned dragons compared to the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon that Hu Fei had cast with all his might.
Without any warning, Huang Daniu who was shrouded by the khaki-colored energy extended his hands instantly.
Boom Boom!!
A series of loud rumbles resounded in the air. The air in the sky started to move, and the khaki-colored energy shrouded Huang Daniu entirely. It seemed like he was instantly turned into an earth behemoth.
The earth behemoth pounced forward and clashed with the fiery behemoth.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
…
Two behemoths continued to collide with each other while constantly tearing and biting each other. It was difficult to distinguish who would be the victor at this moment.
However, the earth behemoth seemed to possess an endless amount of energy, and its courage continued to mount as the battle progressed. It forced the fiery behemoth down, and it slowly extinguished the flame on the fiery behemoth.
Fifteen minutes later, the fiery behemoth was finally suppressed and lost its vigor.
Boom!
The earth behemoth did not seem even a little bit weakened. It charged forward with all its might, and it managed to defeat the fiery behemoth with just a few slaps.
The body of the fiery behemoth was beaten with just a few slaps. Hu Fei, the receiver of the slaps, did not have many severe injuries on his body. However, he fainted right away after spurting out a few mouthfuls of blood.
Whoos.h.!.+
An old man appeared out of nowhere and caught Hu Fei immediately when he saw he had fainted and was about to fall to the ground.
It was none other than Cha Bai, the Peak Master of Fire Peak!
Cha Bai swept a cold glance at Huang Daniu who had already retrieved his energy. His eyes were filled with extreme iciness as if it was about to devour a particular person.
Had it not been for the fact that he was a little scared of Qi Yu, the Peak Master of Wood Peak, he would have already killed Huang Daniu long ago.
"You geezer!" When everyone had their attention on Huang Daniu the victor, Huang Daniu suddenly glared fiercely and pointed a finger towards Cha Bai.
The moment Cha Bai saw this, he could not help but be a little stunned.
"You geezer! H-How dare you threaten me using your… your Voice Transmission as well! Not only do you want to kill me, y-you want to kill my entire family as well? All the way to the ninth generation? I… I…" Huang Daniu was so furious that his eyes turned red as he fumed and panted.
"WHAT?!"
After hearing Huang Daniu's words and seeing the furious expression on his face, everybody, including the disciples from Fire Peak, was startled.
Was the Peak Master of Fire Peak out of his mind?
He had already been taught a lesson by Qi Yu for threatening Duan Ling Tian earlier, and now, he dared to threaten Huang Daniu, who was also a disciple from Wood Peak like Duan Ling Tian and was also protected by Qi Yu?
Was this not just looking for death?
Soon enough, most of the people immediately s.h.i.+fted their attention towards Qi Yu, the Peak Master of Wood Peak. Just in the nick of time, they saw Qi Yu vanished from their sights just like that.
Their first reaction was to quickly s.h.i.+ft their gazes towards Cha Bai, the Peak Master of Fire Peak.
Sure enough, Qi Yu appeared before Cha Bai in just a blink of an eye.
Wham!
Another rumble resounded in the air.
Cha Bai who was still holding Hu Fei was immediately sent flying again. Blood gushed out of his mouth like a water fountain. A lot of blood clots could be seen in it as well.
"Barf!"
"Barf! Barf!"
…
Cha Bai who had finally managed to stabilize himself kept throwing up blood from his mouth. It was only after a while that he could finally stop it from gus.h.i.+ng out again.
After he had stopped the blood from gus.h.i.+ng out, he glared murderously towards Huang Daniu instead of Qi Yu and roared loudly, "Huang Daniu! When did I ever threaten you?"
At this moment, other than the resentment in Cha Bai's heart, he felt wronged as well!
Earlier, he had merely glared at Huang Daniu and had never spoken a word to him using his Voice Transmission. However, Huang Daniu had made a slanderous accusation and claimed he was threatened instead.
Before he could offer any explanation, Qi Yu already appeared before his eyes. Without any words, he sent Cha Bai flying again. He inflicted another round of heavy injuries to his internal organs that had yet to recover.
Although his injuries would recover eventually, he would still need at least two to three months before he could fully recover even after he consumed the middle-grade Life Recovery Pill...
"Peak Master Cha Bai, I… I was merely joking you," Huang Daniu smiled sheepishly as he scratched the back of his head awkwardly.
