The Eternal Supremacy - Chapter 42
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wan Qinghe was startled by Ji Mo and Huo Lin’er’s appearance whereas Lu Susu stared at them hatefully while grinding her teeth.
“Why are you here?” Wan Qinghe looked at Ji Mo disdainfully, then turned to look at Huo Lin’er strangely. “Senior Sister Huo, why are you here too?”
Huo Lin’er scoffed at Wan Qinghe after Ji Mo put her down. “Wan Qinghe, this is none of your business. Get out of the way. Lu Susu and I have a personal conflict to deal with.”
Wan Qinghe was familiar with Huo Lin’er because she was an important figure at Tianyuan Academy, and she was also an inner disciple of the Tianshan Sword Sect. Although he was usually not afraid of her at the academy, he did not fawn over her either. After all, based on Wang Qinghe’s talent, he would become an inner disciple sooner or later, and might even surpass Huo Lin’er.
“Senior Sister Lu, are these the two people you mentioned?” Wan Qinghe turned to look at Lu Susu.
“Yes.” Lu Susu confirmed with a nod, then mentioned after noticing that Wan Qinghe wanted to withdraw, “Why? Are you scared? You promised to help…”
“Um…” Wan Qinghe felt troubled. He made light of Ji Mo but was cautious of Huo Lin’er who was a master in Qi Plundering Boundary.
Lu Susu, who seemed to know what he was thinking, said with a charming smile, “Don’t worry. Huo Lin’er’s True Qi has been sealed, so she’s just a normal person now. As for the wild fella, don’t tell me that you’re still afraid of him?”
Wan Qinghe’s eyes glowed when he heard her. Since Huo Lin’er’s True Qi was sealed, he only needed to get rid of Ji Mo, which was extremely easy for him. As a little warlord at the academy, Wan Qinghe had never attached importance to someone like Ji Mo.
His face turned unresponsive right away.
“Wan Qinghe, what are you going to do? I’m an inner disciple of the Tianshan Sword Sect. Are you going to attack me?” Huo Lin’er shouted upon seeing Wan Qinghe’s eyes that were full of killing intent.
“Haha, Huo Lin’er, based on your current state, who do you think you can intimidate? You’re just a normal person since your True Qi has been sealed. As long as both of you are dead, nobody will find out about this.” Lu Susu laughed, then cast a sweet look at Wan Qinghe as she encouraged, “Junior Brother Wan, you can protect me now. I’ll definitely reward you well once I return to the sect. I’ll give you enough spiritual medicines for cultivation. Perhaps when you advance to be an inner disciple, we can be paired cultivation partners too.”
Motivation like that was simply deadly to men, especially when it was said by a beauty like Lu Susu, as many of them would be moved.
“Really? You must keep your promise, Senior Sister Lu.” As expected, Wan Qinghe was moved.
“Of course, I will, but you must get rid of these troubles first,” Lu Susu replied flirtatiously and winked at him.
Wan Qinghe laughed evilly as he glanced at Ji Mo and Huo Lin’er with sinister looks. When he paced toward them, a powerful force was slowly released from his body as though a primitive beast had been awakened.
“Wan Qinghe, don’t you dare!” Huo Lin’er yelled.
“Okay, Senior Sister Huo, you can’t threaten him now, so let me do it,” Ji Mo uttered plainly before placing his hand on her shoulder to pull her behind him.
“Ji Mo…You…” Huo Lin’er looked at his thin body with a confused look. In actual fact, she did not know much about Ji Mo’s strength, unlike Lan Qingcheng who had gone through thick and thin with him recently.
In Huo Lin’er’s opinion, Ji Mo was considered a talented person but was still far from Wan Qinghe. After all, Wan Qinghe had the cultivation base of an eight-tier tempered body and was one of the best in Tianyuan Academy, so how could Ji Mo possibly defeat him?
Wan Qinghe sneered at Ji Mo. “Why? Are you going to fight me?”
“Am I not allowed to?” Ji Mo grinned.
Wang Qinghe smiled as well, but it was a scornful one. He expressed, “Perfect, I’ll take this chance to teach you a lesson on behalf of Nan Hao. He’s not free to discipline an arrogant person like you in the academy because he’s in closed-door cultivation, so I should take up the responsibility.”
Ji Mo smiled without saying a word. He had already begun brewing the Celestial Devil Power in his blood and flesh, so his body shivered and crackling sounds were heard, which were the effects of channeling the Celestial Devil Power.
However, Wan Qingyun thought that Ji Mo was shivering out of fear, thus he felt even prouder, particularly because Lu Susu was present. “You’ve been causing quite a scene lately to have attacked Nan Hao’s people. He’s my sworn brother, so if he’s not free to punish you, I’ll do it for him. I’ll let you know the immensity of Heaven and Earth soon, and make sure that you’ll never get to be full of yourself anymore!”
“Do you always like to talk nonsense before fighting someone?” Ji Mo remarked while frowning.
Wan Qinghe was almost breathless when he heard that, and his face reddened as he responded coldly, “You…A person like you should just lie down like an obedient dog!!” Subsequently, Wan Qinghe’s surging aura burst out, and it seemed like he really meant business.
Huo Lin’er had a serious expression on her face. Sure enough, Wan Qinghe was not a simple man at all. Having an eight-tier tempered body, his strength was considered only second to Nan Hao in Tianyuan Academy, so could Ji Mo be victorious over a powerful opponent like him? On the other hand, Lu Susu was delighted. She felt that Wan Qinghe could easily win against the insignificant outer disciple.
Wan Qinghe’s aura was vast and violent like the tide. His long hair rose due to the vicious power, and his eyes emitted iridescent rays as if he was a wild beast. “Lie on the ground now, and I’ll think about being lenient when I trample on you later. I’ll only cripple you and I’ll let you live!!”
Swoosh!
While Wan Qinghe was busy talking, Ji Mo suddenly swayed his body, and an explosive force burst out from his leg. Ji Mo shot out like a cannonball and arrived in front of Wang Qinghe in the blink of an eye. Without any hesitation, he gathered the Celestial Devil Power from his blood and flesh at his palm before attacking his opponent.
‘Essence-Unifying Slab Splitter!’ Ji Mo roared to himself.
Boom!
After that, the powerful Celestial Devil Power was unstoppable like a flood from a broken dam. The Celestial Devil’s shadow was vaguely visible on his palm and it twined around his arm while negative aurae that were violent, bloody, and brutal poured out endlessly.
Wan Qinghe was appalled because he did not expect Ji Mo to attack like this. He actually felt like he was suffocating when the Celestial Devil Power was used, similar to a baby facing a ferocious beast.
He quickly crossed his arms to gather all his force onto them, then transformed the force into a Tiger-headed Shield to protect himself.
It was a defense martial art that was regarded as an advanced-level one and could withstand more than 500 kilograms of power, which was a few times mightier than an ordinary practice boulder.
Bam!
A heavy sound was heard when Ji Mo’s Essence-Unifying Slab Splitter that was accompanied by the Celestial Tiger Power hit the Tiger-headed Shield. The enormous power forced Wan Qinghe to fall back and his legs even drew two long fissures on the ground while his shield that was covered in cracks shattered in the end.
Ji Mo swung his hands as he gave a toothy grin. It was a casual smile, but it got on Wan Qinghe’s nerves because he did not expect Ji Mo to force him into a retreat and even break the Tiger-headed Shield, an advanced-level martial art that he cultivated.
It was worth noting that the shield could bear more than 500 kilograms of weight, so it could not actually be shaken by normal people.
