Night of the Broken Gliph - Chapter 556

Kam Chin Kee subconsciously looked up. There were countless green balls of light that came down on him. It was a complicated gliph, but he was able to identify that it was the Inauspicious Star Gliph! This was Green Bamboo Curse’s main feature – to emit the offensive Inauspicious Star Gliph every now and then with no cost to the user.

Since Hung Ching Sun went all in with his attack, more than ten Inauspicious Stars came down on Kam Chin Kee while Hung Ching Sun attacked again at the same time!

Kam Chin Kee looked as composed as ever, which was what Hung Ching Sun hated most about him.

He moved like a willowy ghost, forming many afterimages in the blink of an eye as he avoided all the Inauspicious Stars nimbly.

Clan Leader Kung-Suen, who was watching the fight, took a glance at his daughter subconsciously; it resembled Kung-Suen Ching Lau’s self-created gliphility, Willow Branch Ghost, greatly, but it was even more exquisite!

Hung Ching Sun had already pounced over, punching Kam Chin Kee with his right fist. Like a violent wave, his Great Strike was sent towards Kam Chin Kee.

However, Kam Chin Kee smiled gently because Hung Ching Sun was going for his afterimage instead. Meanwhile, what went directly for Hung Ching Sun was a red figure, its beak made of metal. Hung Ching Sun was taken aback, but it was too late for him to dodge the attack.

Boom!

Red Bird flew out while Hung Ching Sun looked as cold as an iceberg. The cloth belt that was tied around his waist shone with a hazy light.

Hung Ching Sun was no ordinary person after all. As the Hung Clan’s second young master, he was donned in many treasures like the ancient Shifting Light Jade, the grade three gliph weapon Green Bamboo Curse, and Great Wisdom City’s speciality – the Silver Stream Belt, a high-quality treasure made of cloth that was soaked in the Heavenly Silver Waterfall. And the belt Hung Ching Sun wore came with the Silver Stream Shield, able to block any sort of attack thrice.

Hung Ching Sun felt unpleasant at how he had to waste one of the belt’s chances during his first fight with Red Bird. If not for the belt, the bird’s grade-three gliphic weapon beak would’ve been sufficient to take his life.

He really detested this feeling!

“Hah…” Right as he was in an extremely bad mood, he heard Kam Chin Kee laughing. He could no longer keep his composure as he had threatened Kam Chin Kee before the fight started, so he glared at the other in fury.

“What the hell are you laughing at!?”

“Watch your back.” Kam Chin Kee pointed.

“My back?” Hung Ching Sun was confused; he felt a chilly sensation at his back and the belt heated up.

He turned around to see that numerous tiny needles had nearly reached him, but the Silver Stream Shield activated automatically and blocked the attack. He didn’t know when it happened, but there was a huge hole in the blue wolf puppet’s stomach – the puppet that was trash to him!

That was where the tiny needles shot out from!

Boom!

Another loud boom was heard. It sent Hung Ching Sun jumping up as he realised that the Silver Stream Shield had blocked a huge mountain big enough to crush him to his death! His silver belt had lost its lustre and looked like any other ordinary belt.

And…

That was all.

How careless was Hung Ching Sun to leave his back to his enemy during a battle?

When he finally regained awareness, Kam Chin Kee was gripping his neck with a smile. “You’ve lost.”

Hung Ching Sun wanted to get himself out and counterattack because of this result he was unhappy with, but it was only now that he found out that Kam Chin Kee’s grip was as tight as a padlock. Is his body in the two-chambered state?

Hung Ching Sun was unwilling to concede defeat. To him, Kam Chin Kee tricked him to make him look behind himself before sneak attacking him. He looked around, and the illusion remained even though Kam Chin Kee had his neck; this means that the illusion disapproves too!

“Do you dare to kill me?” Hung Ching Sun laughed. They were in Great Wisdom City, the city that belonged to his clan, and there was even the five-chambered Hung Siu watching from the side.

Kam Chin Kee would most likely end up dead if he dared to kill him.

Kam Chin Kee was stunned, but he let out a laugh within no time. “Why would I not dare?”

As soon as he finished his words, blood drained from Hung Ching Sun’s face. The other was smiling widely, yet there was a strong murderous aura that felt as if Kam Chin was on top of a mountain of corpses, and it seemed like he could smell the metallic smell of blood!

The other was smiling widely, but he was a devil.

The murderous intent told Hung Ching Sun that Kam Chin Kee meant his words, which made the grip on his neck feel even more intense. The long, pale hand that one might mistake for a girl’s hand seemed to be flowing into his skin. Hung Ching Sun could somehow see the fingernails growing longer, sharper, and thinner, just like five knife blades coming out from his fingers.

Hung Ching Sun was petrified in fear. The threat of death had him scared witless, screaming; “I concede defeat!”

Whoosh…

Kam Chin Kee’s hand now clenched nothing, but he was still smiling at Hung Ching Sun. “You let me win.”

Hung Ching Sun flew out of the huge silver ball of water to the stone stage on the lonely peak, eyes shaking in fear.

Only those in the four-chambered state and above could see what was going on in the illusion, and only a minority had such capabilities, so the rest were at a loss about what was going on.

But no matter what, since Hung Ching Sun was thrown out, it meant that Kam Chin Kee won. The thought of this made the crowd have bad expressions. Kam Chin Kee was an outsider after all, and this meant that all representatives of Great Wisdom lost. Some even cursed at Hung Ching Sun in their hearts – at how he only knew how to abuse his power in the city like a tyrant when he couldn’t even get into the Cloud Trials four years ago!

When Hung Ching Sun recovered from his shock, he met with Hung Siu’s calm gaze and felt extremely indignant.

“The legendary item in the illusion is ours, Great Wisdom City’s! Why should it end up in an outsider’s hands!?

“That Kam boy is a fox! He schemed against me to win! What kind of Cloud Palace Itinerant is he?

The elites who watched the fight felt awkward. They knew Kam Chin Kee won fair and square, but now that Hung Ching Sun phrased it in this manner, it sounded as if the other only played dirty tricks.

However, they were all observing Hung Siu. As Hung Ching Sun mentioned, the Heavenly Silver Waterfall was as good as their backyard as well as a powerful natural object that they relied on. And only they, the Great Wisdom City members, witnessed the fight.

Thus, as long as Hung Siu wanted, Kam Chin Kee naturally would have to give up the legendary item. Hung Siu could invert the truth with his words alone.

Hung Ching Sun was no idiot; he knew that Hung Siu had the right to make the decision and shouted, “Great Uncle! This is not for me, but for Great Wisdom City! I don’t mind if the item does not end up being mine, Hung Ching Sun’s, at the end of the day!”

Hung Leung felt that his son had gone overboard, but he couldn’t help but be moved. It certainly wouldn’t be an ordinary item if nobody in the city could obtain it successfully over the past several centuries.

Thus, Hung Leung tried as well. “Elder Brother, look…”
