Chapter 719: The Unforgiving Showdown!
“Could it be from the Yutian Palace?”
A hint of panic appeared on Wang Quande’s face. However, it seemed unlikely that the Yutian Palace would act so swiftly for a young boy.
“Come on, let’s investigate!”
Elder Bing Fu’s expression tightened. The presence he detected through his spiritual senses was pressing on his heart.
Even though they were in the Central Region, it was still under the influence of the Sacred Mountain. After he spoke, Elder Bing Fu disappeared from his spot in an instant.
In the grand hall, everyone exchanged confused glances. Soon, waves of energy surged, and figures began to vanish from the room one by one.
In a side hall, Su Yi and Xi Wuqing sat calmly, their faces composed.
As a thunderous noise echoed, Xi Wuqing looked up briefly and spoke to Su Yi, “It seems like the voice of Old Man Gu Yue. It looks like you’re safe.”
“This time, we owe Yutian Palace a debt.”
Su Yi replied casually, “Truth be told, I have no personal connection with Yutian Palace. I only went there for a soul test. But now that the Palace Master and Old Man Gu Yue have personally come to the City Master’s Mansion, this debt is quite significant.”
Under the night sky, Central Region City was brightly illuminated. Despite it being nighttime, the streets were packed with people, many of whom struggled to find accommodation, resorting to waiting outside.
Suddenly, a loud roar erupted from the City Master’s Mansion, creating an uproar. Eyes immediately turned toward the source of the noise.
“Looks like the City Master’s residence!”
“Ah, the Yutian Palace people must have arrived at the City Master’s place!”
“…”
In no time, a surge of figures, like a wave, rushed from all directions toward the City Master’s mansion.
The City Master’s residence was now teeming with activity. Guards in full armor stood ready, holding swords, spears, and halberds. However, their usually formidable stance was now shaken as they looked up at the sky, anxiety visible on their faces.
“Roarrrr…”
Outside the City Master’s residence, a brilliant light blazed. Huge demon beast mounts, fierce and imposing, roared, filling the air with a threatening aura.
At the same time, over a dozen figures hovered in midair, glowing like the midday sun. Their presence bathed the City Master’s mansion in a radiant light, making the area appear as if it were still day. The atmosphere surged, stirring the winds and clouds!
Each of the figures exuded a stronger aura than the one before.
The leading figure, if Su Yi were there, would immediately recognize as none other than Old Man Gu Yue, the Palace Master of Yutian Palace.
By Old Man Gu Yue’s side were Deputy Palace Masters Guan Lan, Yun Ding, and Yan Lu.
Among them was also the imposing Green Emperor, radiating a brilliant green aura, his gaze filled with icy determination.
“This is the City Master’s residence. You cannot enter without permission!”
The City Master’s guards, who were once fierce warriors, now trembled and felt the hairs on their necks rise under the immense invisible pressure.
The Emblem of Yutian Palace displayed on the figures’ clothing made it clear that these were some of the most formidable warriors of Yutian Palace—forces to be reckoned with.
“What if we’ve made a mistake?”
The Green Emperor’s deep voice echoed, unable to contain his anger any longer. He charged forward, stomping the ground. With a swift motion of his sleeve, a green light erupted, sweeping everything in its path.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
One guard after another was flung back, crashing into the City Master’s residence. The ground trembled from the impact as blood poured from their mouths.
“Invading the City Master’s residence is punishable by death!”
The guards gritted their teeth and shouted, but none dared to advance.
“Don’t give up my master! Let’s see who’s more ruthless!”
The Green Emperor bellowed. With another wave of his hand, a torrent of green light surged forward, moving as quickly as lightning.
“In the Central Region, don’t overstep your bounds!”
A cold shout rang out as a figure swiftly emerged from the City Master’s residence. An icy aura filled the air, dropping the temperature sharply, causing frost to blanket everything.
“Boom!”
A frozen handprint materialized, harnessing the surrounding energies, and shielded the Green Emperor from harm.
“Ha ha ha…”
The Green Emperor’s attack was stopped in its tracks. An icy breath spread out, rushing toward him.
“A powerful opponent!”
The Green Emperor’s expression changed slightly. His green eyes glowed with a blood-red hue. It was as though two blood moons were hidden within them, gradually intensifying. A wave of green light surged from his body, forming a river of light to fend off the icy blast.
“How dare you demon kin wreak havoc in the Central Region City!”
The voice, cold as a breeze, sent a chill down everyone’s spine.
Elder Bing Fu appeared, his gaze dark and commanding. Recognizing the aura of the Green Emperor, he unleashed a punch imbued with a frost-like energy, which exploded with a deafening force.
“Swoosh…”
As the punch landed, ripples of frost spread through the air, and snowflakes fell gently from the void.
The power to manipulate the very elements of nature—truly terrifying!
“Hmph, Bing Fu, you’re quite arrogant!”
A faint, aged voice rang out as a figure materialized before the Green Emperor. With a swift motion, a palm imprint formed, directly blocking the incoming punch.
The collision produced a blinding light, and a deafening boom echoed through the air, causing the ground to shake and the mountains to tremble.
“Clickety-clack…”
The City Master’s mansion shook violently, cracks forming in the ground, spreading rapidly.
In that moment of intense confrontation, it was clear that neither side had a clear advantage. The surrounding area trembled, but the power was contained—otherwise, the entire mansion would have been destroyed, and countless lives would have been lost.
“Deng deng…”
Elder Bing Fu staggered back a few steps before he regained his footing, locking eyes with the figure before him.
In front of the Green Emperor stood none other than Old Man Gu Yue. Despite his weathered appearance, his spirit was strong, his face healthy, and his long silver-white hair tied neatly. Beneath his grey robe, his gaze was fixed on Elder Bing Fu.
“Old Man Gu Yue!”
Upon seeing him, Elder Bing Fu’s surprise turned into solemnity. How could he not recognize the terrifying figure of Palace Master Gu Yue?
“Whoosh…”
Soon, a group of figures appeared within Central Region City. Leading them was Ouyang Yuanfeng, followed by powerful individuals like Kuang Guilan and Elder Qi.
Ouyang Jinwei, a man with long light green hair, and Chu Changhuan also stepped forward.
The crowd’s attention shifted to the powerful figures in front of them, making them hesitate.
Ouyang Yuanfeng, Elder Qi, and the others furrowed their brows.
They feared the Yutian Palace and never expected them to arrive so suddenly.
What’s more, the Palace Master of Yutian Palace, Old Man Gu Yue, and three Deputy Palace Masters had come together. This was an extraordinary lineup. Even if they engaged in battle, they knew the strength of Palace Master Gu Yue, Guan Lan, and the other Deputy Palace Masters. Elder Bing Fu feared they would not be able to withstand their power.
“It seems the Palace Master Gu Yue and Guan Lan, along with Deputy Palace Masters Yun Ding and Yan Lu, have arrived. I wonder why they have come to the City Master’s residence. What could it be about?”
Ouyang Yuanfeng stepped forward with a stiff face, clasped his fists, and bowed. He spoke to Palace Master Gu Yue and the others, already guessing the reason for their arrival.
